Notice to Gavilon must be in writing and describe the specific reasons for any rejection.

Producer shall provide Gavilon with a minimum of thirty (30) days’ advance notice of the return date for each Car, including advice of the last contents of each such Car. In the event that Producer does not return a Car as required under the terms of this Agreement, Customer shall, in addition to any other obligation set forth under the terms of this Agreement, pay a service charge to Gavilon in the amount of 200% of the then-current rate for such Car. |

To the extent that any unauthorized overloading occurs, Producer will indemnify and hold harmless Gavilon and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents from and against any and all loss, cost, liability, claim, damage, fine or expense relating to any act, occurrences or other events of loss from the loading of any Car in an unauthorized amount during the term of this Agreement. Producer will further indemnify Gavilon against any damage to the Car caused by excess loading on rail and will, immediately upon demand, pay to Gavilon the full cost of any repairs made necessary and such payment will be treated as additional rent due under this Agreement. |
4
14. | Cars Subject to Mortgage, Deed of Trust, Equipment Trust or Assignment. This Agreement and Producer’s rights are subject and subordinate to the rights of any lender, owner or other party which finances the Cars. Some of the Cars may be subject to the terms of a Mortgage, Deed of Trust, Equipment Trust, Pledge or Assignment or similar security arrangement. The Cars may be stenciled or marked to state the ownership of such Cars in the name of a mortgagee, trustee, pledgee, assignee or security holder. This Agreement and the rents may have been assigned or may in the future be assigned to the holder of the superior lien on each Car (as determined by the filings with the Surface Transportation Board or successor entity). However, Producer must pay all rents as and when due to Gavilon until notified to the contrary by any third party reasonably demonstrating to Producer’s satisfaction that such party is the assignee of this Agreement or the rents and is entitled to be paid directly by Producer. Producer consents to and accepts any such assignments. |
15. | Casualty Cars. |
A. | If any Car is destroyed or damaged beyond repair while not in the possession, custody or control of Producer or Producer’s agent or shipper and such destruction or damage of a Car has been reported in accordance with the Interchange Rules, such Car will be removed from the rental calculations on the date Car hire ceases as set forth in Rules 7 and 8 of the AAR’s Code of Car Hire. Gavilon shall be entitled to all casualty proceeds from the Car. |
B. | If any Car, while in the possession, custody or control of Producer or Producer’s agent or shipper, is destroyed or damaged, Producer shall promptly notify Gavilon in writing of such damage or destruction. If a Car is totally destroyed, damaged or beyond economic repair, as reasonably determined by Gavilon, the settlement value will be calculated using AAR Rule 107, and Producer will remit to Gavilon within the earlier of (i) 30 days of receipt of an invoice from Gavilon; or (ii) 90 days of the damage or destruction date. If any Car is totally damaged or destroyed, the rent for such Car will cease to accrue when Gavilon receives notification of such damage. |
16. | High Mileage Utilization. Upon receipt of Gavilon’s invoice, Producer will pay to Gavilon in a lump sum the Hi-U Amount for each Car on a calendar basis. The “Hi-U Amount” is the product derived by multiplying the Hi-U Charge for each Car by the Excess Mileage attributed to such Car if the Excess Mileage amount is greater than 1. The formula for determining Excess Mileage of a Car is: |
Excess Mileage = Actual Miles Reported - |
Hi-U Threshold Miles x Number of Days in Service | |||||||
Number of Days in the Calendar Year |
Where:
• | The Hi-U charge is $0.03; |
• | The Hi-U Threshold Miles are 36,000; |
• | The Actual Miles Reported is the total of the Car’s miles reported by the railroads in a calendar year; and |
• | Days in Service is the total number of days during the applicable calendar year that rent is accruing minus the days the Car is in the shop. |

17. | Warranty; Liability. PRODUCER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT GAVILON IS NOT THE MANUFACTURER OF THE CARS AND THAT GAVILON MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO MERCHANTABILITY, VALUE, CONDITION, QUALITY, DESIGN, CAPACITY, MATERIAL WORKMANSHIP, FITNESS OR SUITABILITY FOR ANY PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE BY PRODUCER. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED HEREIN, GAVILON PROVIDES THE CARS “AS-IS” AND WITH ALL FAULTS, AND ALL RISK, AS BETWEEN PRODUCER AND GAVILON, SHALL BE BORNE BY PRODUCER, AT PRODUCER’S EXPENSE UNLESS CAUSED BY THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF GAVILON. EXCEPT FOR GAVILON’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE AND WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, GAVILON WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO PRODUCER OR ANY PARTY FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE TO REVENUES, PROFITS, OTHER ECONOMIC LOSS OR GOODWILL OR OTHER SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY CARS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT, PRODUCER AGREES THAT IN NO EVENT SHALL GAVILON’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING UNDER, WITH RESPECT TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT EXCEED THE PAYMENTS ACTUALLY RECEIVED FROM PRODUCER HEREUNDER. |
18. | Letter of Credit. In the event of an Approval, Sections 18A through 18E will be valid and enforceable. In the event of a Non Approval, Sections 18C through 18E shall be deemed null and void and only Sections 18A and 18B will be valid and enforceable. As partial consideration for Gavilon entering into this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements, Producer’s parent company, Advanced BioEnergy, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, shall post an irrevocable and non-transferable standby letter of credit for the benefit of Gavilon in the amount of $2,500,000 (“LOC Amount”), all in a form as agreed upon by Gavilon (the “ABE LOC”). The ABE LOC shall include, but not be limited to, the following terms: |
A. | In the event that the lease term for the individual Cars as set forth on Exhibit A are not hereafter extended or otherwise amended, the LOC Amount shall be decreased to (i) $2,000,000 on July 1, 2017 and (ii) $1,500,000 on July 1, 2018. There shall be no requirement to replace or renew the ABE LOC after it has been drawn upon. Any reference to the “LOC Amount” shall refer to the lesser amounts as set forth herein after the applicable dates referenced unless the lease term for the individual Cars as set forth on Exhibit A are hereafter extended or otherwise amended, in which case the original LOC Amount shall remain in place unless the Parties otherwise agree. |
B. | Geneva State Bank, or some other financial institution deemed acceptable to Gavilon (“Lender”), shall allow Gavilon to draw upon the ABE LOC in the full LOC Amount upon Gavilon’s written notice to Lender, with a copy to Producer, stating that there has been (i) an Event of Default by Producer |
6
under the terms of this Agreement; or (ii) a Non-Approval. There will be no further obligation for an ABE LOC hereunder: (i) after payment of the LOC Amount to Gavilon; (ii) sixty (60) days after expiration or termination of this Agreement; or (iii) upon a transfer or an assignment of this Agreement pursuant to a Purchaser Change of Control (as defined in Section 28) if Gavilon has reasonably determined, in its sole discretion, that neither the succeeding party nor the Producer needs to provide a letter of credit. |
C. | After drawing the full LOC Amount, Gavilon shall provide written notice to Producer of all amounts due under the terms of this Agreement as of the date of Gavilon’s notice to Lender. Thereafter, Gavilon shall work in good faith to mitigate Producer’s damages under the terms of this Agreement by trying to re-lease the Cars to other users, all upon terms deemed reasonable by Gavilon (the “New Lease(s)”). In the event that Gavilon receives net revenues from the New Lease(s) during the remaining term of this Agreement which results in total damages owed by Producer to Gavilon to fall below the full LOC Amount drawn by Gavilon, then Gavilon shall reimburse Producer for the difference between the LOC Amount and the actual damages owed by Producer to Gavilon under the terms of this Agreement. Any calculation of “net revenues” received by Gavilon under the New Lease(s) shall exclude (i) any taxes imposed on the Cars due to re-leasing, and (ii) all costs and expenses incurred by Gavilon to (x) obtain possession of the Cars, (y) re-lease the Cars to third parties under the New Lease(s), including any reasonable internal personnel costs as determined by Gavilon, and (z) enforce this Agreement and the New Lease(s). |
D. | Producer acknowledges and agrees that Gavilon’s obligation to reimburse Producer for any differences between the LOC Amount and the actual damages incurred by Gavilon (as outlined in Section 18C above) shall not impact, alter or diminish Gavilon’s right to draw upon the ABE LOC in the full LOC Amount and/or to enforce any of its other remedies as set forth in this Agreement. |
E. | Producer and its affiliates shall have reasonable audit rights over Gavilon’s mitigation efforts and related books and records in Section 18C and 18D above for as long as reasonably necessary even after the termination of this Agreement. Gavilon will cooperate with all of Producer’s reasonable audit requests. |
19. | Indemnification. |
A. | Except as may otherwise be provided in this Agreement, Producer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Gavilon, its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, members, managers, shareholders and representatives (collectively “Gavilon Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, liabilities, actions, losses, damages, fines, penalties, costs and expenses including reasonable attorneys’ fees (collectively “Damages”) actually suffered by the Gavilon Indemnitees resulting from: (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Producer, its operating subsidiaries, or any of their officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and contractors; or (y) any breach of the Transaction Agreements by Producer. |

C. | The failure to perform any material covenant, condition, or obligation set forth in this Agreement; |
D. | Any Party herein shall (i) become subject to any foreclosure proceeding by such Party’s primary lender or other material creditor(s), or (ii) become insolvent, or shall suffer or consent to or apply for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or liquidator of itself or any of its property, or shall generally fail to pay its debts as they become due, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; any Party hereunder shall file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy, or seek reorganization, in order to effect a plan or other arrangement with creditors or any other relief under the Bankruptcy Code, Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended or recodified from time to time, or under any state or federal law granting relief to debtors (collectively “Bankruptcy”); or |
E. | Any Party herein shall default on any payment obligation with such Party’s primary lender or other material creditor(s), or such other Party has received notice of acceleration or demand for payment from such Party’s primary lender or any other material creditor(s), and such payment obligation default is not cured or the primary lender or material creditor does not forbear such payment obligation default, acceleration or demand for payment within ten (10) days following such default or notice. |

21. | Right to Cure. If a default arising (i) under Section 20A is not cured within five (5) days after receipt of a notice thereof from the non-default party, or (ii) under Section 20B or 20C is not cured within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a notice thereof from the non-default party; then the non-defaulting Party may, at any time after the applicable cure period, terminate this Agreement by written notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, no cure period shall apply to a default arising under Section 20D or 20E, and Producer or Gavilon may, upon the occurrence of a default by the other Party arising under Section 20D or 20E, immediately suspend further performance under this Agreement, with or without giving notice of such default or notice of termination. |
22. | Non-Waiver of Future Default. No waiver by either Party of any Event of Default by the other Party in the performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement will operate or be construed as a waiver of any other or future Event of Default or defaults, whether of a like or of a different character. |
23. | Cross Default. The occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default under any other Transaction Agreement shall constitute, at the election of the non-defaulting Party, in its sole and absolute discretion, an Event of Default under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Agreements (together the “Cross Default”). Upon the occurrence of any Cross Default, Gavilon shall have the right to draw upon the ABE LOC in the full LOC Amount. A waiver of a Cross Default by the non-defaulting Party pursuant to this Section shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other Event of Default or Cross Default. |
24. | Financials. Producer agrees to provide Gavilon with such accounting, financial and other information as may be requested in order for Gavilon to monitor and assess Producer’s credit status during the term of this Agreement. For all periods of time while (i) Producer’s parent corporation is a publicly reporting company and (ii) the ABE LOC remains in place and available for up to its full amount, Gavilon acknowledges that Producer shall have no obligation to provide any financial information to Gavilon except for (A) information available on XXXXX with regard to Producer’s parent corporation’s financials and (B) information circulated or discussed by or among the Producer’s Risk Management Committee as disclosed to Gavilon in accordance with certain of the Transaction Agreements. |

B. | The rights and remedies under this Section are cumulative and not exclusive. Upon an Event of Default or termination, the non-defaulting Party shall additionally have such other and further rights as may be provided at law or in equity, including (i) all rights of set off as contained in this Agreement and (ii) acceleration of all amounts due from Producer to Gavilon under all of the Transaction Agreements. |

Except as otherwise mandated by applicable law, no Party may issue, or otherwise permit to be issued, any press release or other public announcement relating to the subject matter or existence of this Agreement without the prior written approval of the other Party, which approval may be withheld in such Party’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, Producer may file and release any and all information it is required to file, as reasonably determined by Producer, to comply with its securities filing and reporting requirements. |
28. | Assignment.

Each Party will work in good faith as reasonably necessary to support, assist and cooperate with any approved assignment by the other Party. Any assignee of Producer shall agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Transaction Agreements. “Change in Control” means a change in the ownership of a Party, whereby such change results in any person or group (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), directly or indirectly, having the ability to control the governing body of such Party. |
In the event that Producer desires to contract for any of the Cars directly with GATX at the time of any applicable renewal term for such Cars under the Master Agreement, Gavilon will not interfere with Producer and GATX entering into any such contract, whereupon the Master Agreement between Gavilon and GATX shall cease with regard to such Cars as of the Expiration Dates set forth on Exhibit A. In the event that Producer does not desire to contract for any of the Cars directly with GATX, or in the event that GATX refuses to enter into a contract with Producer, Gavilon shall have no obligation to renew the Master Agreement or continue with any sublease of the Cars to Producer after the expiration dates set forth on Exhibit A.

A. | The Parties shall make a diligent, good faith attempt to resolve all disputes before either Party commences arbitration with respect to the subject matter of any dispute. If the representatives of the Parties are unable to resolve a dispute within forty five (45) days after either Party gives written notice to the other of a dispute, either Party may, by sending a dispute notice to the other Party, submit the dispute to binding arbitration in accordance with the Governing Body Arbitration Rules, except as such Governing Body Arbitration Rules may be modified by this Agreement. |

11
E. | The costs of such arbitration shall be determined by and allocated between the Parties by the arbitrator(s) in their award. |
F. | This Section constitutes an independent contract between the Parties to, pursuant to the Governing Body Arbitration Rules (except as said Governing Body Arbitration Rules are modified by the express terms of this Agreement), arbitrate all disputes between the Parties related to this Agreement, including, without limitation, disputes regarding the formation of contract(s) and whether either Party is entitled to quasi-contractual or quantum meruit recovery from the other Party. |
G. | Unless otherwise agreed in writing or as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the Parties shall each continue to perform their respective obligations hereunder during any proceeding by the Parties in accordance with this Section; provided, however, Producer must remain current on its rent for the Cars during any proceeding between the Parties and Gavilon must perform and remain current on its rent to GATX for the Cars during any proceeding between the Parties. |
32. | Inurement. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and permitted assigns of the Parties, and Producer shall cause the same to be assumed by and to be binding upon any successor owner or operator of the Plants, provided that such successor or assign is reasonably acceptable to Gavilon. |
33. | Master Agreement. As a condition to entering into this Agreement, Producer acknowledges that Gavilon obtained the consent of GATX to sublease the Cars to Producer, whereby such consent was subject to Producer’s agreement that (i) its rights to the Cars under the terms of this Agreement are subject and subordinate to Gavilon’s rights to the Cars under the Master Agreement and (ii) this Agreement is subject to all other terms and conditions of the Master Agreement except for the payment terms and the renewal terms (which are otherwise addressed in Section 28 above) set forth in the Master Agreement. Accordingly, Producer hereby acknowledges and agrees: (i) that its rights to the Cars under the terms of this Agreement are subject and subordinate to Gavilon’s rights to the Cars under the Master Agreement; (ii) that to the extent Gavilon owes obligations to GATX under the Master Agreement which are more stringent or onerous than the obligations owed by Producer to Gavilon under the terms of this Agreement, then the terms of the Master Agreement shall apply to the obligations owed by Producer to Gavilon; and (iii) to the extent not otherwise set forth in this Agreement, Producer shall fulfill all obligations owed by Gavilon to GATX under the terms of the Master Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein contained, to the extent Gavilon fails to perform on or pay GATX pursuant to the Master Agreement, the Producer may terminate any payments due Gavilon hereunder and instead make such payments directly to GATX, and may continue doing so without being deemed to be a default or an Event of Default hereof. Such payments to GATX instead of Gavilon may continue until such time as Producer has received reasonable assurances from GATX and Gavilon that Gavilon’s performance and rental payments to GATX are current. |

34. | Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Transaction Agreements, constitutes the entire Agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter contained herein and any and all previous agreements, written or oral, express or implied, between the Parties or on their behalf relating to the matters contained herein shall be given no effect. As a condition to entering into this Agreement, the Parties acknowledge that they must also enter into the other Transaction Agreements as partial consideration for this Agreement; provided, however, Producer acknowledges that certain of the other Transaction Agreements may terminate prior to this Agreement and, upon any such termination of the other Transaction Agreements in accordance with their terms, Producer shall still be bound by the terms of this Agreement except as otherwise set forth herein or as otherwise agreed upon by the Parties. |
35. | Amendments. There will be no modification of the terms and provisions hereof except by the mutual agreement in writing signed by the Parties. Any attempt to so modify this Agreement in the absence of such writing signed by the Parties shall be considered void and of no effect. |
36. | Governing Law. This Agreement will be interpreted, construed and enforced in accordance with the procedural, substantive and other laws of the State of Nebraska without giving effect to principles and provisions thereof relating to conflict or choice of law even though one or more of the Parties is now or may do business in or become a resident of a different state. Subject to Section 31, all disputes arising out of this Agreement shall be resolved exclusively by state or federal courts located in Omaha, Nebraska, and each of the Parties waives any objection that it may have to bring an action in any such court. |
37. | Setoff. |
A. | In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights hereunder, if Producer becomes insolvent, however evidenced, or upon any Event of Default on the part of Producer, and Producer fails to cure the Event of Default as permitted by Section 21 within the applicable period specified therein, then any and all amounts due and owing by Producer under this Agreement, and any other Transaction Agreement may be applied by Gavilon toward the payment of amounts due and owing to Producer under this Agreement, and any other Transaction Agreement. This right of setoff shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of setoff, net income, recoupment, a combination of accounts, lien, charge or the right to which Gavilon is at any time otherwise entitled (whether by operation of law, by contract or otherwise). |
B. | In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights hereunder, if Gavilon becomes insolvent, however evidenced, or upon any Event of Default on the part of Gavilon, and Gavilon fails to cure the Event of Default as permitted by Section 21 within the applicable period specified therein, then any and all amounts due and owing by Gavilon under this Agreement, and any other Transaction Agreement may be applied by Producer toward the payment of amounts due and owing to Gavilon under this Agreement, and any other Transaction Agreement. This right of setoff shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of setoff, net income, recoupment, a combination of accounts, lien, charge or the right to which Producer is at any time otherwise entitled (whether by operation of law, by contract or otherwise). |

38. | Compliance with Laws. This Agreement and the respective obligations of the Parties hereunder are subject to present and future valid laws and valid orders, rules and regulations of duly constituted authorities having jurisdiction. |
39. | No Partnership; Relationship. This Agreement shall not create or be construed to create in any respect a partnership or any agency or joint venture relationship between the Parties. The relationship of Gavilon and Producer established by this Agreement is that of independent contractors, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed: to give either Party the power to unilaterally direct and control the day-to-day activities of the other or to be considered an agent of the other; to constitute the Parties as partners, joint ventures, co-owners or otherwise; or to allow either Party to create or assume any obligation on behalf of the other Party for any purpose whatsoever. Except as otherwise provided herein, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as conferring any right or benefit on a person not a Party to this Agreement. |
40. | Notice Addresses. Except as specifically otherwise provided herein, any notice or other written matter required or permitted to be given hereunder by one Party to the other Party pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, shall be deemed to be sufficiently given if delivered by hand or sent by certified mail, nationally recognized delivery service or by fax, and addressed as follows: |

43. | Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is or becomes prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or impair the remaining provisions of this Agreement, and the remaining terms of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect or, if allowed by the law of the applicable jurisdiction, it shall be amended so as to most closely conform to the original intent of this Agreement without the offending provision, and as so amended shall continue in full force and effect. |

Provided that an Approval has not occurred prior to June 1, 2012, and provided that an Approval subsequently occurs prior to October 1, 2012, then Producer shall also pay to Gavilon within two (2) business days after the Approval the following amount: $* per calendar month (prorated for any partial month) for the period of time starting on June 1, 2012 and ending on the date of the Approval. The parties acknowledge that the monthly rate is determined by multiplying $* times the 199 Cars which are described in the Existing Lease. |
