gasoline with Merrill Lynch Commodities, Inc. (collectively, the
"Contracts"). The Contracts have an aggregate notional amount of
9,085,466 gallons of gasoline and diesel fuel and will expire on a
monthly basis during the last quarter of 2013 and the first two quarters

on-highway diesel fuel price for the month. The Contracts lock in a
weighted average retail floor price of approximately $3.26 per gallon

gallon.
