EXHIBIT A

GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

     1. Definitions: Capitalized terms that are used herein and otherwise not defined shall have the meanings set forth in the main body of the Agreement (the “Main Document”). The following additional terms used in these General Terms and Conditions (these “General Conditions”) shall have the following meanings:

          “API” shall mean the American Petroleum Institute.

          “API/ASTM Standard” shall mean the API and ASTM standard references as such are in effect as of the date hereof. In the event such standards are revised or modified during the Term of this Agreement, the revised or modified standards shall apply if legally required, and if not, after such revisions or modifications have been evaluated and accepted by the Parties.

          “ASTM” shall mean the American Society for Testing and Materials.

          “CPT” shall mean Carriage Paid To as described in Incoterms.

          “FCA” shall mean Free Carrier as described in Incoterms.

          “FOB” shall mean Free On Board as described in Incoterms.

          “Incoterms” shall mean the 2000 edition of the trade terms published by the International Chamber of Commerce which shall apply to this Agreement to the extent that they do not conflict with the provisions of this Agreement.

          “LIBOR” shall mean, as of any date of determination, the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate for U.S. dollars, determined at 11:00 a.m. London time, on the first Day of the calendar month in which the date of determination occurs (or, if the first Day of such calendar month is not a London Banking Day, the immediately preceding London Banking Day) offered by the National Westminster Bank or any successor thereto. For purposes of this definition, a “London Banking Day” is a Day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted on the London interbank market.

     2. Payment and Credit Terms: Payment and credit shall be made without discount, deduction, withholding, set-off or counterclaim in United States dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds on or before the payment due date, as set forth in the Main Document, to the bank and account designated by Seller, against presentation to Buyer by Seller of a written invoice therefor together with other documents expressly specified for presentation for payment in the Main Document.

          Seller shall have the right to assess finance charges at the LIBOR rate as reported in “The Wall Street Journal” for any month in which a balance is past due hereunder plus two percentage (2%) points against all past due amounts and all accrued but unpaid finance charges,

Exhibit A - 1

but not to exceed the maximum finance charges permitted by law. Buyer shall pay all Seller’s costs (including attorneys’ fees and court costs) of collecting past due payments.

          When the payment due date falls on a Saturday or on a weekday, other than Monday, which is not a banking Day in New York then any such payment shall be made on the nearest preceding New York banking Day. When the payment due date falls on a Sunday or a Monday which is not a banking Day in New York such payment shall be made on the next following banking Day.

     3. Title and Risk of Loss: Title to, and all risk of loss of or damage to any Product delivered shall pass as follows: when by or into any vessel, at the flange between the vessel’s permanent hose connection and the shore line; when into any truck, tank car or pipeline, as the Product enters the receiving equipment, or, if received by a common carrier, when accepted by the carrier for shipment; when into storage (other than from vessels), as the Product enters the tank; and when by book or stock transfer, on the effective date of the transfer. It is expressly understood that the passage of title and risk of loss as set forth above is not conditioned on delivery or receipt of Bills of Lading.

     4. Inspection and Measurement: API/ASTM Standards or the latest revisions thereof shall be complied with at all times. All volumes or quantities shall be adjusted per API/ASTM Standards. Metering systems shall conform to the API/ASTM Standards then in effect relative to meter calibration/accuracy.

          Marine Vessels: Unless otherwise agreed, inspection and measurement of Product delivered hereunder shall be made by an independent petroleum inspector, the cost of which shall be borne equally by VMSC and Seller. At the designated point of custody and title transfer, a mutually acceptable independent inspector shall hand gauge and record static shore tank measurements immediately before and immediately after delivery of the Product to determine the volume of Product delivered. If relevant shore tank gauge measurements are not possible, then properly certified meter measurement is acceptable. If neither static shore tank measurement or certified meters are available then determination of the volumes will be agreed to by the parties.

          Pipelines: Quantities delivered into or out of pipelines shall be measured by pipeline meters if available.

          Tank Truck/Cars: Quantities delivered into or out of tank trucks/cars shall be based on meters or shore tanks or scales located at or near the applicable Delivery Point.

          Seller shall permit Buyer to review and copy relevant meter proving records and witness proving tests as requested. Samples of Product transferred hereunder shall be retained for ninety (90) Days.

     5. Warranty: Seller warrants:

A. That the Product conforms to the specifications set forth in the Main Document;

Exhibit A - 2

	B.		That Seller has free and clear title to the Product manufactured and delivered under this Agreement; and
	C.		That such Product shall be delivered free from lawful security interests, liens, taxes and encumbrances.

     EXCEPT FOR THOSE EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER PARTY MAKES ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIONS, GUARANTEES OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY AND THAT OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AS APPLICABLE. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE (OR LACK THEREOF) INCONSISTENT HEREWITH, SELLER HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL REPRESENTATIONS, GUARANTEES OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS OF THE PRODUCT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. IN NO EVENT, REGARDLESS OF NEGLIGENCE, SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.

     All warranties made under this Agreement shall survive acceptance of or payment for the Product by VMSC.

     6. Financial Responsibility: If either Party’s payments or deliveries to the other Party shall be in arrears, or the financial responsibility of either Party becomes impaired or unsatisfactory in the opinion of the other Party, advance cash payment or satisfactory security shall be given upon demand, and shipments may be withheld until such payment or security is received. If such payment or security is not received within two (2) Days from demand therefor, the Party demanding such payment or security may terminate this Agreement. In the event either Party becomes insolvent, makes an assignment or any general arrangement for the benefit of creditors or if there are instituted by or against either Party proceedings in bankruptcy or under any insolvency law or law for reorganization, receivership or dissolution, the other Party may withhold shipments or terminate this Agreement, to the extent provided by Applicable Law. The exercise by either Party of any right reserved under this paragraph 6 shall be without prejudice to any claim for damages or any other right under this Agreement or Applicable Law.

     7. Taxes: Any and all taxes, fees or other charges imposed or assessed by a Governmental Authority, the taxable incident of which is the transfer of title or the delivery of the Product hereunder, or the receipt of payment therefor, regardless of the character, method of calculation or measure of the levy or assessment, shall be paid by the Party upon whom the tax, fee or charge is imposed by Applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary neither Party shall be responsible for the income, franchise, ad valorem or similar taxes of the other Party and each Party agrees to defend, indemnify and hold the other Party harmless from and against any such tax asserted by any Governmental Authority to be due and payable by the other Party.

     VMSC shall provide to Seller all proper exemption certificates, prior to delivery, establishing that it is licensed to engage in tax free transactions with respect to the Product under all federal or state laws which may apply to this Agreement and the Product delivered hereunder.

Exhibit A - 3

     VMSC shall (a) upon receipt of Seller’s invoice pay or reimburse Seller for any such taxes, fees or charges Seller is required by Applicable Law to pay or (b) provide Seller upon demand with a valid exemption certificate.

     8. Deliveries; Liftings: Deliveries shall be made within the delivery terminal’s usual business hours provided that reasonable advance written notice of each delivery has been given by VMSC. Nominations for pipeline delivery shall be given during normal business hours in accordance with the pipeline’s policies and time constraints. Seller’s failure to deliver Product and VMSC’s failure to lift Product, each in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement for any reason other than those included in Section 6, Financial Responsibility, and Xxxxxxx 0, Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, shall constitute a default under this Agreement.

     9. Force Majeure: In the event either Party is rendered unable, wholly or in part, to perform its obligations under this Agreement (other than to make payments due hereunder) for reasons beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, those due to: acts of God, floods, fires, explosions, extreme heat or cold, earthquake or storm; transportation difficulties, strikes, lockouts or other similar industrial disturbances; wars, acts of terrorism or sabotage; accident or breakage of equipment, machinery, or transportation facilities; or failure of transporters to furnish transportation, failure of suppliers to furnish supplies; or any law, rules, order or action of any court or instrumentality of the federal or any state government; or for any other similar cause or causes beyond its reasonable control, it is agreed that on such Party’s giving notice in reasonable detail of such force majeure to the other Party, the obligations of the Party giving such notice shall be suspended from the date of receipt of such notice and for the continuance of any inability so caused, but for no longer period as may reasonably be required to, and such cause shall, so far as possible, be remedied with all reasonable dispatch; provided, however, that neither Party will be obligated to settle a strike or other labor disturbance in order to comply with such obligation. The term force majeure shall not apply to those events which merely make it more difficult or costly for Seller or VMSC to perform their obligations hereunder. VMSC and Seller further agree that at the conclusion of any force majeure event, neither VMSC nor Seller shall have any obligation to each other with respect to any quantities of Product not delivered as a consequence of such force majeure event. No condition of force majeure shall operate to extend the Term of this Agreement.

     10. Hazard Warning Responsibility: With the other documents required hereunder, Seller shall provide to VMSC a Material Safety Data Sheet for each Product delivered hereunder. VMSC acknowledges that there may be hazards associated with the loading, unloading, transporting, handling or use of the Product sold hereunder, which may require that warnings be communicated to or other precautionary action taken with all persons handling, coming into contact with, or in any way concerned with the Products sold hereunder.

     11. Drawback: Seller reserves the right to claim, receive and retain drawbacks on imported duty-paid feedstocks used in the manufacture of Products which it delivers hereunder. VMSC shall on request execute proofs of exportation, drawback claim forms and assignments in favor of Seller to enable Seller to establish its drawback rights under applicable regulations.

     12. Limitation of Liability: IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR

Exhibit A - 4

CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

     13. INDEMNITY: SELLER AND VMSC MUTUALLY COVENANT TO AND SHALL PROTECT, DEFEND, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD EACH OTHER AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, AGENTS AND CONTRACTORS HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS, SUITS, LOSSES (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, COSTS OF DEFENSE, ATTORNEYS’ FEES, PENALTIES AND INTEREST), DAMAGES, CAUSES OF ACTION AND LIABILITY OF EVERY TYPE AND CHARACTER WITHOUT REGARD TO AMOUNT (TOGETHER, “LOSSES”) CAUSED BY, ARISING OUT OF OR RESULTING FROM THE ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF NEGLIGENCE OR WRONGDOING OF SUCH INDEMNIFYING PARTY, ITS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS OR AGENTS WITH RESPECT TO THE PURCHASE AND SALE OF PRODUCTS HEREUNDER, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT SUCH LOSSES ARE CAUSED BY, ARISE OUT OF OR RESULT FROM THE ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF NEGLIGENCE OR WRONGDOING OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTY.

     14. Waiver: The delay or failure of any Party to enforce any of its rights under this Agreement arising from any default or breach by the other Party shall not constitute a waiver of any such default, breach, or any of the Party’s rights relating thereto. No custom or practice which may arise between the Parties in the course of operating under this Agreement will be construed to waive any Parties’ rights to either ensure the other Party’s strict performance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or to exercise any rights granted to it as a result of any breach or default under this Agreement. Neither Party shall be deemed to have waived any right conferred by this Agreement or under any Applicable Law unless such waiver is set forth in a written document signed by the Party to be bound, and delivered to the other Party. No express waiver by either Party of any breach or default by the other Party shall be construed as a waiver of any future breaches or defaults by such other Party.

     15. Assignment: This Agreement shall not be assigned by any party hereto (including by operation of law or otherwise) except with the prior written consent of the other parties hereto; provided, however, that (a) Seller may assign any of its rights and obligations to any Affiliate of Seller but no such assignment shall relieve Seller of its obligations hereunder and (b) Seller may assign its rights, title and interest hereunder to lenders and other creditors, or agents or trustees acting on behalf of any of the foregoing (collectively, a “Collateral Assignee”), as security for the performance of obligations of Seller to such financing sources, on the condition and with the understanding that, (i) to the extent of any such assignment, the Collateral Assignee shall be entitled, only upon written notice to VMSC of Collateral Assignee’s exercise of any such security (a “Foreclosure Notice”), to exercise any and all rights of Seller hereunder, (ii) VMSC and its Affiliates shall be entitled to rely unconditionally upon a Foreclosure Notice in making any payments or performance hereunder to or for the benefit of the Collateral Assignee (or its designee(s) identified in the Foreclosure Notice), without thereby incurring any liability to Seller or any of Seller’s Affiliates, (iii) neither VMSC nor any of its Affiliates shall be obligated to grant any extensions of time for performance, waive any of their rights or remedies hereunder, or assume any additional obligations or liabilities under this Agreement as a result of any collateral assignment of this Agreement to a Collateral Assignee or a Collateral Assignee’s

Exhibit A - 5

exercise of its security so granted to it by Seller, and (iv) neither a collateral assignment of this Agreement by Seller to a Collateral Assignee nor any exercise by a Collateral Assignee of any security so granted to it by Seller shall release Seller from any of its obligations hereunder.

     16. [Intentionally Not Used]

     17. Section and Paragraph Headings: The section headings used in the Main Document and the paragraph headings used in these General Conditions are for convenience only and shall not limit or change the subject matter of this Agreement.

     18. Audit: Each Party and its duly authorized representatives shall have access during customary business hours to the accounting records and other documents maintained by the other Party which relate to this Agreement and shall have the right to audit such records at any reasonable time or times within two (2) year after the delivery/receipt of Product provided for in this Agreement. However, a Party can only conduct one audit per year, and the same year cannot be re-audited.

     19. Compliance with Laws: During the performance of this Agreement, each Party agrees to comply with all Applicable Laws.

     20. Commissions and Gifts: No director, officer, employee or agent of either Party shall give or receive any commission, fee, rebate, gift or entertainment of significant value or cost in connection with this Agreement.

     22. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process; Waiver: Each of the Parties hereto agrees, subject to paragraph 21, that it shall bring any action or proceeding in respect of any claim arising out of or related to this Agreement, whether in tort or contract or at law or in equity, exclusively in any Federal or state court in the State of Texas and solely in connection with such claims, if any, (i) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts, (ii) waives any objection to laying venue in any such action or proceeding in such courts, (iii) waives any objection that such courts are an inconvenient forum or do not have jurisdiction over it and (iv) agrees that service of process upon it may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to it at its address specified in Section 7.2 of the Agreement.

Each of the Parties hereto knowingly and intentionally, irrevocably and unconditionally waives trial by jury in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and for any counterclaim therein.

Exhibit A - 6

     23. Availability of Equitable Relief: Each of the Parties hereto recognizes that irreparable injury will result from a breach of paragraph 24 of these General Conditions and that money damages will be inadequate to fully remedy the injury. In order to prevent such irreparable injury, the arbitrators selected pursuant to paragraph 21 shall have the power to grant temporary or permanent injunctive or other equitable relief. Notwithstanding paragraph 21, prior to the appointment of the arbitrators, a party hereto may, subject to paragraph 22, seek temporary injunctive relief from any court of competent jurisdiction; provided that the party seeking such relief shall (if arbitration has not already been commenced) simultaneously commence arbitration in compliance with the dispute resolution procedures. Such court ordered relief shall not continue more than 10 days after the appointment of the arbitrators (or in any event for longer than 60 days).

     24. Confidentiality: The terms of this Agreement and any financial, technical or other proprietary information furnished or disclosed to a Party hereunder shall not be disclosed or made available to any other person or entity without the prior written consent of the other Party other than as contemplated hereunder; provided that nothing herein shall limit the disclosure of any such information (i) to the extent required by statute, rule, regulation (including any rule or regulation of, or agreement with, any self regulatory organization) or judicial, administrative or regulatory process, (ii) to counsel for VMSC and Seller, (iii) to auditors or accountants, (iv) in connection with any litigation to which VMSC or Seller is a party, (v) to an Affiliate of VMSC or Seller, (vi) by Seller to a potential purchaser of the Refinery, excluding information related to pricing and product specifications, (vii) to the extent necessary or desirable under the SPA or the Other Agreements (as defined in the SPA), and (viii) to the extent necessary or desirable to perform its obligations under this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, further, that unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each of VMSC and Seller shall, prior to disclosure thereof, notify the other Party of any request for disclosure of any such non-public information (A) by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof or (B) pursuant to legal process. Notwithstanding the above restrictions, neither Party shall have any obligation in respect of any disclosure of confidential information which is, or becomes, generally known to the public without breach of the terms of this Agreement, or if any disclosure of confidential information is required by court order or by order of any governmental or administrative tribunal having jurisdiction over the Parties. The confidentiality obligations in this section shall survive termination of this Agreement for an additional 2 calendar years.

     25. Rights and Remedies Cumulative: The rights and remedies of the Parties under this Agreement shall be cumulative and non-exclusive of any other rights or remedies which each such Party may have at law or in equity.
