(f) If the Parties are unable to agree on the Breach Amount on or before the Closing Date, then the Non-Environmental Schedules will not be updated with the information described in the Claim Notice and, in the event that the transactions contemplated in this Agreement close, Purchaser will retain the right to pursue a claim for indemnification with respect to the information described in the Claim Notice.

7.2 Notices to Governmental Agencies. If Purchaser’s environmental due diligence reveals any condition at the Properties that requires disclosure to any governmental agency or authority, Purchaser shall immediately (a) notify Seller thereof, and (b) provide all data and analysis concerning the condition acquired during the due diligence process including without limitation the ESA. Purchaser acknowledges that applicable rules may require notification to a governmental agency within twenty-four (24) hours of occurrence, and Purchaser agrees to take all reasonable steps necessary to support the ability of Seller, or the operator at the Property, as the case may be, to meet this obligation. Except as provided by Law, in such event, at all times prior to the Closing, Seller, and not Purchaser, Purchaser’s agents, or anyone acting on Purchaser’s behalf, shall make such legal determinations regarding disclosures as Seller deems appropriate.

7.3 Environmental Site Assessment. During the Interim Period, Purchaser shall have the right (a) to perform an Environmental Site Assessment (“ESA”) and (b) to audit the Properties for compliance with Environmental Laws including completing such testing of all underground storage tank components, including, but not limited to, underground storage tanks, associated lines, pipes, spill containment devices and pumping equipment as it deems necessary in its sole discretion (“Environmental Compliance Testing”), at the Properties before the Closing; provided that (i) the ESA and Environmental Compliance Testing conform to Schedule 7.3 and applicable ASTM standards, (ii) performance of the ESA and Environmental Compliance Testing do not damage or interfere with the operation of the Properties, (iii) completion of an ESA and Environmental Compliance Testing on the Properties conform with all of the requirements set forth in the applicable Leases, and (iv) Purchaser provides Seller with a copy of any ESA and Environmental Compliance Testing report promptly after the report is issued. Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless for the acts of Purchaser and/or Purchaser’s agents, employees or contractors in performing the ESA and Environmental Compliance Testing and Purchaser shall return each of the Properties to its previous condition upon completion of its activities in connection with the ESA and Environmental Compliance Testing. Purchaser shall deliver a copy of any final reports or assessments resulting from such investigations and testing to Seller promptly after their completion. Any investigation conducted pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall be conducted in accordance with the terms of Article VII. Purchaser’s conduct of an ESA and Environmental Compliance Testing shall not be a condition to the Closing, and failure to perform or complete the ESA shall not extend the date for the Closing.

7.4 Environmental Schedules Updates.

(a) During the Interim Period, Purchaser commits to promptly disclose to Seller any information (whether contained in any ESA report, discovered in connection with any Environmental Compliance Testing or otherwise) which could reasonably be construed to be a Breach of any of Seller’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.11 of this Agreement (a “Property Environmental Breach”), and shall describe with reasonably specificity all information relating thereto (a “Purchaser Property Environmental Notice”). In addition to the foregoing, to the extent that Seller becomes aware of any information which could reasonably be construed to be a Property Environmental Breach, Seller shall promptly provide written notice of such Property Environmental Breach to Purchaser (which shall describe with reasonable specificity all information relating thereto) (a “Seller Property Environmental Notice” and, together with a Purchaser Property Environmental Notice, a “Property Environmental Notice”).

(b) Following delivery of a Property Environmental Notice by any Party, Purchaser and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to determine (i) whether the details described in the Property Environmental Notice constitute a Property Environmental Breach and (ii) if a Property Environmental Breach exists or has occurred, the appropriate Property Remedial Measures relating to such Property Environmental Breach that should be added to Schedule 8.5(a).

(c) If the Parties agree on (i) the existence or occurrence of a Property Environmental Breach and (ii) the appropriate Property Remedial Measures relating to such Property Environmental Breach to be added to Schedule 8.5(a), then Schedule 5.11 shall be updated to reflect the information regarding the Property Environmental Breach and Schedule 8.5(a) shall be updated to reflect the agreed-upon Property Remedial Measures relating to such Property Environmental Breach.

(d) If the Parties are unable to agree on (i) the existence or occurrence of a Property Environmental Breach or (ii) the appropriate Property Remedial Measures relating to such Property Environmental

Breach to be added to the applicable Schedule 8.5(a) then Schedule 5.11 will not be updated with the information regarding the Property Environmental Breach and, in the event that the transactions contemplated herein close, Purchaser will retain the right to pursue a claim for indemnification based on the Property Environmental Breach post-Closing.

7.5 Purchaser Acknowledgments. Purchaser specifically acknowledges that, except for Seller’s representations and warranties in this Agreement and the Designated Seller Documents, and subject to Seller’s obligations as contained in this Agreement and the Designated Seller Documents, Purchaser is not relying on any representations or warranties of any kind whatsoever, express or implied, from Seller, Matrix, or any director, governor, officer, manager, employee, representative, broker or other agent of any of them, as to any matters concerning the Properties, including: (a) the condition or safety of the Properties or any improvements thereon, including plumbing, sewer, heating and electrical systems, roofing, air conditioning, if any, foundations, soils and geology, lot size, or suitability of the Properties or their improvements for a particular purpose; (b) whether the appliances, if any, plumbing or utilities are in working order; (c) the habitability or suitability for occupancy of any structure and the quality of its construction; (d) the fitness or condition of any personal property; (e) whether the fixtures or improvements, including the Fuel Equipment, are structurally sound, in good condition, or in compliance with applicable Laws; (f) the legal or Tax consequences of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; (g) the environmental condition of the Properties, including but not limited to the possible presence of petroleum products and/or Hazardous Substances in, under or near the Properties; and (h) the completeness or accuracy of any information provided to Purchaser by Seller or its agents.

VIII.

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS AND COVENANTS

8.1 Announcements. Before Closing, neither Seller nor Purchaser shall make any public announcements concerning the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without first obtaining the prior written consent of the other, except as may be required by applicable Law or pursuant to the rules and regulations of any securities exchange, and except that Seller may disclose this Agreement to any lender holding a lien on any of the Properties or otherwise subject to this Agreement and to any lender of Seller in order to comply with Seller’s obligations hereunder, Purchaser may, on a need to know basis in connection with consummating this transaction, disclose this Agreement and any Confidential Information to its lenders, attorneys, accountants, directors, officers, agents and consultants provided that any party receiving such Confidential Information has agreed to hold such Confidential Information in confidence. Seller or Purchaser may disclose the identity of the other Party and terms of this Agreement to their employees, vendors, outside counsel or other outside professionals on a need to know basis in connection with consummating this transaction. If a disclosure is required by a fuel supplier agreement or applicable Law or agreement with any securities exchange, the disclosing Party shall make reasonable efforts to afford the other Party an opportunity to review and comment on the proposed disclosure before the making of such disclosure.

8.2 Insurance and Casualty. Purchaser acknowledges that all insurance coverage at the Fee Properties is provided by Xxxxxxxx Oil pursuant to the lease agreements between Seller and Xxxxxxxx Oil (“EOP Leases”). Seller shall cause Xxxxxxxx Oil to maintain the current insurance coverage and, in the event of casualty, such casualty will be governed by the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement.

8.3 Condemnation. If before Closing, any part of the Fee Properties is taken, or noticed for taking, by eminent domain, Seller shall promptly give Purchaser written notice thereof. If, in Purchaser’s reasonable opinion, the taking will have a material, adverse impact on Purchaser’s ability to use of the property for the retail sale of petroleum products and food stuffs, Purchaser may elect, by written notice to Seller, to terminate this Agreement with respect to the affected Fee Property (the “Condemned Property”). If Purchaser makes such election, (a) Purchaser shall have no obligation to purchase the Condemned Property, (b) this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as to the remaining unaffected Fee Properties and (c) the Property Purchase Price shall be adjusted to reflect the aggregate amount of sum of the purchase prices for the Fee Properties, less the purchase price for the Condemned Property. If Purchaser fails to make such election prior to the Closing Date, the Closing shall nevertheless proceed; provided, however, that Purchaser shall be entitled to the benefit of any proceeds due as the result of such taking. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no partial termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall have any effect on the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement.

8.4 Matrix; Payment of Brokers. Purchaser acknowledges that Seller has retained Matrix Private Equities, Inc. (“Matrix”) to act as the financial advisor in connection with the sale and lease of the Properties and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Seller shall be responsible for any fees due to Matrix. Each Party shall be responsible for any brokerage commission or other fees legally determined to be due to any broker or advisor claiming by, through or under such Party and, as between Seller and Purchaser, shall also be responsible for any Loss (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) paid or incurred by the other Party by reason of any claim to any such broker’s, finder’s or other fee in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by any such broker or advisor.

8.5 Environmental Responsibilities.

(a) The Parties acknowledge that Seller is currently undertaking Property Remedial Measures as set forth on Schedule 8.5(a); provided that Schedule 8.5(a) may be amended prior to the Closing Date in accordance with Section 7.4. Purchaser understands that Seller shall have no obligation to perform any environmental remediation except for the Property Remedial Measures set forth on Schedule 8.5(a), as may be amended pursuant to Section 7.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an ESA or any Environmental Compliance Testing conducted by Purchaser (or any ESA or Environmental Compliance Testing conducted by Seller) prior to the Closing reveals a release of petroleum or Hazardous Substances at any of the Properties which is required to be reported to the Applicable State Environmental Agencies, and which have not been previously reported to Applicable State Environmental Agencies, then Purchaser shall advise Seller and Seller shall promptly, but in all cases prior to Closing, report the same to Applicable State Environmental Agencies. Seller shall thereafter, and through Closing, use commercially reasonable efforts to seek funds, if any, which may be available from applicable local, state or federal agencies in Minnesota or Wisconsin to offset the cost of any required Property Remedial Measures. Seller agrees to be financially responsible for the cost of any Property Remedial Measures to the extent such Property Remedial Measures are not covered by insurance or do not qualify for reimbursement from trust funds from such States or other applicable governmental agency, if such Property Remedial Measures are specifically listed on Schedule 8.5(a), as may be amended pursuant to Section 7.4. “Property Remedial Measures” shall consist of the lowest cost activities reasonably required by applicable Law and by Applicable State Environmental Agencies or other applicable governmental agency to (a) clean up, remove, treat or in any other way address any contaminant or Hazardous Substances in the indoor/outdoor environment; (b) contain, mitigate or otherwise prevent the release or the threat of release or minimize the further release of any contaminant or Hazardous Substances so that it does not migrate or endanger or threaten to endanger public health or welfare of the indoor or outdoor environment; (c) perform pre-remedial studies and investigations and post-remedial monitoring and care required under the Environmental Laws; or (d) recover response or remedial costs or to secure the involvement or cooperation of other Persons potentially responsible for any cost of remediation including, without limitation, prosecuting any legal action.

(b) Seller’s obligation to conduct Property Remedial Measures for the Properties identified on Schedule 8.5(a), as may be amended pursuant to Section 7.4, shall be deemed complete for purposes of this Agreement upon receipt by Seller of a written letter, order or statement from Applicable State Environmental Agencies or other appropriate Governmental Authority stating that, subject to the agency’s usual and customary reservation of rights, it will not require Seller or Purchaser to perform further Property Remedial Measures with respect to the release (“Closure Letter”), other than routine monitoring. If requested to do so by Applicable State Environmental Agencies or other appropriate Governmental Authority in connection with the performance of the Property Remedial Measures or the issuance of the Closure Letter, the Parties acknowledge that Seller or Purchaser may be asked to place reasonable activity and use limitations (“AULs”) on the Properties, including, if requested, prohibiting the use of groundwater under the Properties for potable purposes and/or restricting the use of the Properties to non-residential purposes. Seller and Purchaser, as applicable, shall promptly provide a copy of the Closure Letter to the other Party upon receipt.

(c) With respect to Unknown Pollution, on the Closing Date, Purchaser shall procure and pay for a PLL Policy covering all of the Properties. Pursuant to Section 8.7(c) of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Stock Sellers will contribute Seventy-Five Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($75,000.00) towards payment of the premium for the PLL Policy. Such PLL Policy, to the extent available in the marketplace, shall cover remediation costs and third-party liability for Unknown Pollution as well as third-party liability for Known Pollution and shall identify Seller as an additional insured. The PLL Policy shall also include coverage for New Pollution. The PLL Policy shall be written with no less than a five (5) year term and shall have limits of $5,000,000 and a self-insured retention (“SIR”) of $50,000. Purchaser shall be responsible for the payment of the SIR. For the avoidance of doubt, Seller shall have no responsibility for losses incurred after five (5) years from the Closing Date.

(d) If the Property Remedial Measures required under Section 8.5(a) have not been completed prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall remain financially responsible for the cost of any such incomplete Property Remedial Measures to the extent such Property Remedial Measures are not covered by insurance or do not qualify for reimbursement from trust funds from such States or other applicable Governmental Authority. If the Property Remedial Measures required under Section 8.5(a) have not been completed at the time of Closing, Seller shall deposit the amount reflected on Schedule 8.5(d) (the “Property Environmental Remediation Escrow”) (which Schedule shall be delivered by Seller to Purchaser at the Closing and which amount will be determined by Seller, in consultation with Purchaser, based on Seller’s reasonable estimate for the remaining expected remediation costs) into the Escrow Account to provide for the expected remediation costs for such sites. From and after the Closing Date, Seller shall use its best efforts to complete the Property Remedial Measures set forth on Schedule 8.5(a); provided, however, that (i) Seller shall keep Purchaser reasonably informed as to its progress in completing the Property Remedial Measures set forth on Schedule 8.5(a) and (ii) Purchaser shall have the right to take over responsibility for completion of the Property Remedial Measures and direct the completion of the Property Remedial Measures (which shall remain at Seller’s cost and expense) if (x) Seller is in Breach of its responsibilities under this Section 8.5, (y) Purchaser has provided written notice of such Breach to Seller, and (z) Seller fails to remedy such Breach within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent one Party receives insurance proceeds to cover Property Remedial Measures undertaken by the other Party, the Party receiving such insurance proceeds shall reimburse the other Party but only to the extent of the amounts actually expended by such Party in undertaking the Property Remedial Measures. In the event the Property Environmental Remediation Escrow is not sufficient to pay the costs of any incomplete Property Remedial Measures, Section 5.11 and this Section 8.5 shall be deemed to have been Breached by Seller and Purchaser shall be entitled to indemnification in accordance with the terms of Article X. The Property Environmental Remediation Escrow shall be distributed to pay costs and expenses incurred in performing Property Remedial Measures. Distributions from the Property Environmental Remediation Escrow will be considered payments made and amounts expended by Seller.

(e) Except to the extent set forth in Section 5.11, this Section 8.5 and Article X, Seller shall have no other obligation to Purchaser, and Purchaser hereby releases and discharges Seller, for any Losses whether arising in law or equity, known or unknown, or arising before or after the Closing, in connection with or relating to the environment at, on, under or near the Properties, including but not limited to any such matters relating to the Fuel Equipment or releases of petroleum products or Hazardous Substances.

(f) For purposes of clarity, after Closing, if Purchaser excavates or removes any soil on or from the Properties other than in connection with taking Property Remedial Measures set forth on Schedule 8.5(a), as may be amended pursuant to Section 7.4, or as contemplated by Schedule 8.5(d), Purchaser shall be responsible for all costs and expenses related to such excavation or removal (including, without limitation, all costs of disposal of such soil), except to the extent that such excavation or removal is a result of the existence of a Breach of Section 5.11 or this Section 8.5 by Seller, in which event Purchaser shall be indemnified for such costs and expenses in accordance with the terms of Article X of this Agreement.

8.6 1031 Exchange. Upon the request of either Party, Purchaser and Seller shall reasonably cooperate with each other in effecting a like-kind exchange with respect to one or more of the Properties pursuant to Section 1031 of the Code.

8.7 Contractual Obligations. Purchaser and Seller hereby agree that the responsibility for any fees or expenses associated with any consents sought under Schedule 5.2 or Schedule 6.3, including without limitation assignment fees and transfer fees shall be borne by the party that is responsible for paying such fees in the applicable third party agreement.

8.8 Conduct of Business Prior to Closing. Except for actions taken with the prior written consent of Purchaser, from the Effective Date until the Closing Date, Seller shall conduct its business in the ordinary course consistent in all material respects with past practice, and shall:

(a) maintain its business intact, market, promote, and sell its products and services consistently in all material respects with past practice, and preserve the goodwill of its business and present relationships with its suppliers and others with whom it has business relations;

(b) maintain the Properties, buildings, structures and other improvements and machinery and equipment constituting any of its assets in good operating condition and repair in all material respects;

(e) promptly advise Purchaser in writing of any change in its assets or the conduct of its business, operations, properties, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects that has a Material Adverse Effect on the Properties;

(f) not take any action, or omit to take any action, that would result in any of its representations and warranties made herein being inaccurate in any material respect at the time of such action or omission as if made at and as of such time;

(g) refrain from entering into any contract or commitment which cannot be terminated upon transfer of the Properties;

(h) refrain from creating, incurring, or assuming any long-term or short-term Indebtedness secured by the Properties whether for money borrowed or otherwise;

(i) perform the landlord’s material obligations under all Third-Party Leases and other agreements affecting the Properties;

(j) not, without Purchaser’s written consent, enter into any lease agreements with tenants or modify or extend existing Third-Party Leases;

(k) not, either before or after any Closing Date, release or modify any warranties or guarantees, if any, of manufacturers, suppliers and installers related to any Property or any part thereof;

(l) pay premiums on, and shall not cancel or voluntarily allow to expire, any of Seller’s currently existing policies of casualty and general liability insurance which provide coverage with respect to any Property, unless such policy is replaced, without any lapse of coverage, by another policy providing coverage at least as extensive as the policy being replaced;

(m) not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Properties, or any portion thereof, nor enter into any leases, service contracts, trust deeds, mortgages, restrictions, encumbrances, liens, licenses or other instruments or agreements affecting any of the Properties (or amendments thereto);

(n) terminate, effective as of Closing, all Third-Party Leases, service contracts, employment agreements or arrangements or existing management agreements which are rejected pursuant to written notice delivered by Purchaser to Seller prior to the Closing Date (subject to Sections 7.1 and 7.4 regarding the supplementation of the Schedules); and

(o) refrain from taking any action, the taking of which, or from omitting to take any action, the omission of which, would cause any of the representations and warranties contained in Article V to fail to be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date as though made on and as of the Closing Date.

The descriptive headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any provisions of this Agreement. Words such as “herein,” “hereinafter,” “hereof” and “hereunder” when used in reference to this Agreement, refer to this Agreement as a whole and not merely to a subdivision in which such words appear, unless the context otherwise requires. The singular shall include the plural and the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter, and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires. The word “including” shall not be restrictive and shall be interpreted as if followed by the words “without limitation.” Each exhibit referenced herein shall be deemed part of this Agreement and incorporated herein wherever any reference is made thereto. Unless otherwise defined therein, capitalized terms used in the exhibits to this Agreement shall have the meanings given to such terms respectively in the body of this Agreement. Each accounting term not defined herein will have the meaning given to it under GAAP.

Without limiting the foregoing, Purchaser and Seller hereby confirm their intention and agreement that time shall be of the essence with respect to each and every provision of this Agreement, notwithstanding any subsequent modification or extension of any date or time period that is provided for under this Agreement. The agreement of Purchaser and Seller that time is of the essence with respect to each and every provision of this Agreement shall not be waived or modified by any conduct of the Parties, and the agreement of Purchaser and Seller that time is of the essence with respect to each and every provision of this Agreement may only be modified or waived by the express written agreement of Purchaser and Seller that time shall not be of the essence with respect to a particular date or time period, or any modification or extension thereof, which is provided under this Agreement.

12.15 Construction of Contract. This Agreement shall not be construed more strictly against one Party than against the other merely by virtue of the fact that it may have been prepared primarily by counsel for one of the Parties, it being recognized that both Purchaser and Seller have contributed substantially and materially to the preparation of this Agreement.

12.16 Severability. The Parties hereto intend and believe that each provision in this Agreement comports with all applicable Laws. If, however, any provision in this Agreement is found by a court of law to be in violation of any applicable Law or public policy, or if in any other respect such a court declares any such provision to be illegal, invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable as written, then it is the intent of all Parties hereto that, consistent with and with a view towards preserving the economic and legal arrangements among the Parties hereto as expressed in this Agreement, such provision shall be given force and effect to the fullest possible extent, and that the remainder of this Agreement shall be construed as if such illegal, invalid, unlawful, void, or unenforceable provision were not contained herein, and that the rights, obligations, and interests of the Parties under the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

12.17 No Implied Contract. Neither Seller nor Purchaser shall have any obligations in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement unless Seller, on the one hand each acting in its sole discretion, and Purchaser, on the other hand acting in its sole discretion, elect to execute and deliver this Agreement to the other

Party. No correspondence, course of dealing, or submission of drafts or final versions of this Agreement between Seller and Purchaser shall be deemed to create any binding obligations in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby, and no contract or obligation on the part of Seller or Purchaser shall arise unless and until a counterpart of this Agreement is fully executed by Seller and Purchaser. Once so executed and delivered by Seller and Purchaser, this Agreement shall be binding upon them.
