5. COOPERATION. WIE shall cooperate fully with ADM by promptly providing any and all information deemed necessary by ADM for the performance of the Services.

6. LIMITATION ON SERVICES PROVIDED.

(a) Services. ADM shall provide the Services to WIE consistent with the quality and manner in which ADM would conduct the Services in its own operations. ADM will comply with all applicable laws, regulations and other legal requirements in providing the Services.

(b) Liability and Indemnity. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, it is understood and agreed by WIE that ADM assumes no liability or responsibility whatsoever to WIE under this Agreement other than to perform the Services in good faith in the manner set forth herein. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, it is further understood and agreed by WIE that, so long as ADM performs the Services in good faith, ADM shall not be liable to WIE with respect to such Services except by reason of acts of ADM consisting of ADM’s breach of this Agreement, gross negligence or willful misconduct. WIE shall indemnify and hold harmless ADM, its subsidiaries, affiliates, divisions, and their directors, shareholders, officers and employees from all costs and expenses incurred by ADM, including, without limitation, costs of investigation, attorneys’ fees, and amounts paid in settlement or satisfaction of claims, proceedings, or judgments, in connection with all claims and proceedings against ADM based upon claims arising from the services provided by ADM and arising from claims for personal injury or property damage suffered by ADM’s employees and agents while performing work under this Agreement at WIE’s facilities, except where such injury or damage is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of ADM or its employees.

7. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR STATUS OF ADM, AND EMPLOYMENT STATUS OF ADM’S EMPLOYEES. Nothing contained in this Agreement, including the services to be provided by ADM on behalf of WIE, will make ADM the agent of WIE for any purpose. ADM and its employees shall be deemed to be independent contractors, with full control over the manner and method of performance of the services they will be providing on behalf of WIE under this Agreement. This Agreement is not intended to create and shall not be construed as creating between the parties hereto a relationship of principal and agent, joint venturers, co-partners, or any other similar relationship, the existence of which is hereby expressly denied by the parties.

Any of the employees of ADM which are providing services on behalf of WIE under this Agreement will remain employees of ADM. These employees will continue to be paid by ADM and to enjoy the benefits to which they are entitled as employees of ADM, unless otherwise provided in any separate agreement covering the services of such employees.

8. SEPARATE ENTITIES. WIE and ADM are separate entities. Nothing in this Agreement or otherwise shall be construed to create any rights or liabilities of either party to this Agreement with regard to any rights, privileges, duties, or liabilities of the other party to this Agreement, except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement, or in any other agreement between the parties to this Agreement.

9. HANDLING OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

10. INSURANCE.

(a) Insurance Coverage of WIE. During the entire term of this Agreement and through any applicable statute of limitations, WIE will maintain insurance coverage which is standard, in the reasonable opinion of ADM, for a company of its type and size which is engaged in the business of producing and selling Products. At a minimum, WIE’s insurance coverage must include:

(i) Commercial General Liability Insurance, naming ADM as an additional insured for all claims connected with or arising out of work covered by this Agreement, with liability limits of at least one million dollars ($1,000,000) each occurrence and in the aggregate.

(ii) Umbrella Excess Liability Insurance, naming ADM as an additional insured for all claims connected with or arising out of work covered by this Agreement, with liability limits of at least five million dollars ($5,000,000) each occurrence and in the aggregate.

(iii) Automobile Liability Insurance, with liability limits of at least one million dollars ($1,000,000) each accident.

(iv) Property Insurance adequately insuring WIE’s production facilities and WIE’s other assets against “all risk” perils of loss, on a replacement cost basis.

(v) Workers’ Compensation Insurance and Employer’s Liability, to the extent required by law and must include an endorsement with a waiver of subrogation in favor of ADM.

On or before the effective date of this Agreement, WIE will provide ADM with a Certificate of Insurance Coverage verifying that insurance coverage complying with the requirements of this Section 10(a) is in place. WIE shall provide ADM with notice of any cancellation or material modification of any policies required herein in accordance with policy provisions.

(b) Insurance Coverage of ADM. During the entire term of this Agreement and through any applicable statute of limitations, ADM will maintain insurance coverage which is standard, in the reasonable opinion of WIE, for a company of its type and size which is engaged in the duties required of ADM pursuant to this Agreement. At a minimum, ADM’s insurance coverage must include:

(i) Commercial General Liability Insurance, naming WIE as an additional named insured for all claims connected with or arising out of work covered by this Agreement, with liability limits of at least one million dollars ($1,000,000) each occurrence and in the aggregate.

(c) Insurance Companies. All policies required to be procured by WIE pursuant to Section 10(a) and by ADM pursuant to Section 10(b) shall be procured from insurance companies listed in the current A.M. Best’s Insurance Guide as possessing a minimum policyholder’s rating of “A-.” If allowed by state law, ADM can meet its obligations under Section 10(b)(iv) of the Agreement by becoming a licensed self-insurer for workers’ compensation insurance. If ADM chooses to become a licensed self-insurer, it will purchase an excess workers’ compensation policy in excess of $250,000 up to statutory limits.

(d) Subrogation. No indemnity shall be paid to a party under this Agreement where the claim, damage, liability, loss or expense incurred would have been covered by insurance proceeds if the incident was or was required to be insured against by the party for whose benefit such indemnity would run and such party failed to maintain such insurance. WIE and ADM shall each exercise commercially reasonable efforts to cause any insurance policies obtained by them pursuant to this Agreement to have the effect of waiving any right of subrogation by the insurer of one party against the other party or its insurer. Each party hereby releases the other from any claims to the extent covered by collected insurance proceeds obtained by the parties pursuant to this Agreement.

11. INDEMNIFICATION.

(a) If any third party makes a claim against ADM or any person or organization related to ADM as a result of (i) the actions or omissions of WIE or any person or organization related to WIE, (ii) a breach of one or more representations or warranties made by WIE hereunder; or (iii) the quality or condition of the biodiesel produced by or on behalf of WIE, then WIE agrees to indemnify ADM and its related persons and organizations except as may be caused by feedstock produced by ADM at an ADM facility failing to conform to the representations and warranties furnished by ADM to WIE pursuant any individual contract entered into by the parties for the origination of such ADM feedstock, and to hold all of them harmless from any liabilities, damages, costs, and/or expenses, including costs of litigation and reasonable attorneys’ fees, which they incur as a result of any such claims made against them by third parties; provided, however, that this indemnification provision shall not apply with respect to any damage to property, personal injury, including death, or violation of any law, order or regulation to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of ADM.
