WHEREAS, the purchase price for such assets was negotiated and contracted for in the aggregate and no price allocation has been made as to any specific asset;

WHEREAS, at the Closing, each of Supply and Global are required to pay a portion of the aggregate consideration payable under the Purchase Agreement; and

WHEREAS, Supply desires to make a capital contribution to Global in an amount equal to the purchase price allocable to the assets Global purchases pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1.     At the Closing, Supply shall make a non-interest bearing cash advance to Global in the amount of $343 million (the "Advance"). Global shall use the Advance to pay its portion of the cash consideration payable by the purchasers under the Purchase Agreement.

2.     As soon as practicable after the Closing, and in no event later than thirty days after the allocation contemplated in Section 7.2 of the Purchase Agreement is finalized, Supply and Global shall agree further, if necessary, on the allocation to the assets each acquired of the aggregate consideration payable under the Purchase Agreement. If the consideration paid by Supply at the Closing, together with the value of Supply's membership interests to be delivered pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (collectively, "Supply's Consideration"), less the allocated purchase price applicable to the assets acquired by Supply results in a positive number, the amount of the Advance recorded in the accounts of each of Supply and Global shall be increased by that positive number, provided, however, that the adjusted Advance shall not exceed $490 million. If Supply's Consideration less the allocated purchase price applicable to the assets acquired by Supply results in zero or a negative number, the amount of the Advance recorded in the accounts of each of Supply and Global shall be reduced by zero or that number, as appropriate. Upon finalizing the calculations required by this paragraph 2, the Advance, as adjusted, shall be recorded as a capital contribution in the books of Global and as an investment in the books of Supply.

In witness whereof Supply, and Global have caused this agreement to be executed as of the date first written above by their respective officers duly authorized.
