ASTEC ADVANTAGES:
1. The radiant heating surface of two pass heaters is typically 50% greater compared to that of other
style heaters. The result is that the two pass heater will have lower radiant flux rates. High radiant
heat flux causes high metal wall temperatures, causing premature coil failure and premature
degradation of the thermal fluid. The life expectancy of the two pass heater will be 2-4 times that of
other designs.
2. Should the coil ever have to be replaced, the bolted cover(s) of the two pass design allow for easy
coil replacement without having to replace the entire heater or requiring shipment back to the
factory for costly repair.
3. There is more internal “room” in the less crowded two pass heater which allows for greater space
between the flame and the coil. This lessens the chances for flame impingement and thus
lengthens coil and thermal fluid life. Ease of inspection is also increased.
4. The velocity in the coil is in the range of 5 – 13 fps as recommended by most thermal fluid
manufacturers. Due to the low average radiant heat flux of the two pass designs, the heater does
not have to rely on excessive fluid velocity (which can lead to erosion) to keep the film temperatures
low. The result is the most forgiving heater on the market.
5. The heater utilizes complete flow through a uniform diameter coil without mixing or by-passing.
6. Front and rear peep sight(s) for viewing flame pattern and coil condition.
7. No orifice plates required for balancing the flow
8. Insulation is on the inside of the heater where it cannot be damaged during shipment
9. Totally Packaged Heaters
10. In House Panel Shop
11. In House Coil Manufacturing

STEEL PRICES ESCALATION NOTE:

Because of price volatility from steel manufacturers, any order will be subject to a review of material costs from the time of the
proposal to the time that the material is actually allocated to the order. Any steel material cost changes will be based on the #1
Chicago Heavy Melt which is listed daily in numerous publications such as THE AMERICAN METAL MARKET. The calculation for
the cost variation will be the difference between the Chicago #1 Heavy Melt scrap index 8 weeks prior to the date of this quotation
and that same index price on the date 8 weeks prior to shipment of the respective order, which roughly corresponds to the steel
material order date. That calculation will multiply the total weight of the steel plate, structural steel, and steel pipe of the product
provided by the applicable index price variation. The increase, or decrease, in price will be shown as an additional line item on the
respective invoice. This is the most appropriate and transparent method to deal with the current unpredictability of the steel market
today. Please, contact us if you have any questions concerning this Escalation Note.

SALES PROPOSAL
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE

1. GENERAL: As used herein, "Equipment" is the equipment and/or parts identified in this Sales Proposal as expressly agreed to be
provided by Heatec to Purchaser. As used herein, the "Services", if any, are the services identified in the Sales Proposal as expressly
agreed to be provided by Heatec to Purchaser. As used herein, the "Software", if any, is the software identified in the Sales Proposal as
expressly agreed to be licensed by Heatec to Purchaser. These General Terms and Conditions of Sale (the "Terms") and all other
sections of this Sales Proposal are collectively referred to in the Terms as the "Agreement". The Agreement sets forth the entire, exclusive
and complete agreement of Heatec and Purchaser with respect to the sale and purchase of the Equipment, the performance of the Services and
the license of the Software and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous written or oral agreement, understanding and communications and any
course of dealing, usage of trade or course of performance. This Agreement prevails over any of Purchaser's terms and conditions of purchase or
purchase order, regardless of whether or when Purchaser submitted such terms and conditions or purchase order. Fulfillment of Purchaser’s order
does not constitute acceptance of any of Purchaser’s terms and conditions and does not serve to modify or amend these terms and conditions. No
waiver or modification of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by both Heatec and Purchaser.

2. ENGINEERING: Heatec and Purchaser acknowledge and contemplate that any engineering services for which Heatec is responsible pursuant to
this Agreement will be performed by engineers employed by Heatec only to the extent allowed by applicable laws and regulations. Otherwise, such
engineering services will be provided by qualified, licensed engineers selected and retained by Heatec at Heatec's expense. Except as otherwise
provided herein, Heatec and Purchaser acknowledge and contemplate that upon acceptance of this Agreement by Heatec, Heatec's engineering
department or a qualified, licensed engineer selected and retained by Heatec at Heatec's expense will perform whatever engineering analysis and
design is necessary to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, and will prepare whatever plant layouts, drawings, and design specifications are
necessary in Heatec's discretion to facilitate the performance of the Equipment in accordance with this Agreement. Heatec and Purchaser further
acknowledge and contemplate that this engineering process may result in modifications or changes which may include, but are not limited to:
modifications in conveyor lengths, sizes, speeds, angles, or positions; changes in motor sizes; changes in Equipment or plant configuration; and
modifications or parts lists. No such modifications or changes shall constitute a breach of contract by Heatec.

3. DRAWINGS: Heatec will furnish Purchaser with necessary drawings and instruction for Purchaser’s erection of the Equipment. Heatec will not be
held responsible for design and/or installation of footings and/or other items necessary for installing the Equipment unless otherwise stated herein.

4. DIFFERING SITE CONDITIONS: If, in the performance of this Agreement, subsurface or latent conditions at the site are found to be materially
different from those indicated by geotechnical reports provided by Purchaser, or unknown conditions of an unusual nature are disclosed differing
materially from those ordinarily encountered by Heatec, then such conditions may result in adjustments to the Price, anticipated dates for
delivery/shipment, and other contractual obligations. No such adjustments shall constitute a breach of contract by Heatec.

5. CONFIDENTIALITY: All non-public, confidential or proprietary information of Heatec, including but not limited to specifications, samples, patterns,
designs, plans, drawings, documents, data, business operations, purchaser lists, pricing, discounts or rebates, disclosed by Heatec to Purchaser,
whether disclosed orally or disclosed or accessed in written, electronic or other form or media, and whether or not marked, designated or otherwise
identified as "confidential" in connection with this Agreement shall be treated by Purchaser as confidential and may not be disclosed to any third
party or copied by Purchaser unless authorized in advance by Heatec in writing. Upon Heatec's request, Purchaser shall return all documents and
other materials received from Heatec. Heatec shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief for any violation of this Paragraph 5. This Paragraph 5 does
not apply to information that is: (a) in the public domain; (b) Purchaser can show was known to Purchaser at the time of disclosure; or (c) Purchaser
can show was rightfully obtained by Purchaser on a non-confidential basis from a third party. Purchaser’s confidentiality, non-disclosure and non-
use obligations herein shall remain in force for the maximum term permitted by applicable law.

6. WARRANTY:
a. Heatec warrants that upon shipment from Heatec’s site and continuing for a period of eighteen (18) months after shipment of
such Equipment to Purchaser or twelve (12) months after startup, whichever occurs first (the "Equipment Warranty Period"), that the
Heatec manufactured Equipment will be free of defects in design, material and workmanship, provided any operation of the Equipment
by Purchaser has been in accordance with generally approved practice as instructed by Heatec service personnel or set forth in Heatec
service instructions, if any, and provided that Purchaser notifies Heatec in writing as soon as such defect becomes apparent, but in all
events during the Equipment Warranty Period. Heatec shall repair, or at its option replace FCA point of shipment, any defective
Equipment or parts covered by the warranty. The right to have defective Equipment repaired or replaced shall constitute the Purchaser’s
sole and exclusive remedy for breach of this limited Equipment warranty. Labor for defective Equipment repair will be paid by Purchaser
under a formula determined by Heatec. For helical coils found in Heatec’s heaters, the Equipment Warranty Period for the helical coils
is three (3) years. Equipment which is repaired or replaced shall carry a warranty equal to the unexpired portion of the Equipment
Warranty Period. Heatec warrants to Purchaser that the Equipment will perform at its rated capacity as indicated on the Sales Proposal
when properly installed, connected, and correctly operated and maintained. Where the Equipment is merely a part of a whole system,
Heatec can only accept responsibility for performance of the Equipment furnished by it. The performance of the Equipment covered in
this Agreement cannot be exactly predicted for every operating condition. In consequence, any predicted performance data submitted
is intended to show probable operating results which may be closely approximated, but which cannot be guaranteed.

b. Heatec makes no warranties or guarantees with respect to Equipment not manufactured by Heatec, including but not limited to diesel
engines, motors, motor starters, pumps, mixers, mills, scales, speed reducers, and other assemblies, valves, pressure regulators,
solenoids, electronic drives, pressure differential switches, temperature sensing switches, flame scanners, gauge boards, modulating
actuators, electronic displays, pressure transmitters, radar sensors, other electronic controls and instrumentation and other parts and
accessories. Liners, castings, furnace refractories, and refractory materials are subject to wide variations of destructive service, are
also not covered by the Equipment warranty and are a maintenance responsibility of Purchaser from the beginning of operation. Heatec
will pass through to Purchaser any warranties and limitations provided by the original manufacturer of parts used in the Equipment
manufactured by Heatec, but Heatec does not provide any warranty as to such items.

Page 18
March 14, 2023 ASTEC PROPOSAL #: HI 23-14751
c. Heatec warrants that the Services performed hereunder shall be free from defects in workmanship for a period of thirty (30) days from
the date of performance (the "Service Warranty Period"). Heatec undertakes at its cost to reperform defective Services covered by
the warranty, provided that Purchaser notifies Heatec in writing as soon as such defect becomes apparent, but in all events during the
Service Warranty Period. The right to have defective Services reperformed shall constitute the Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy
for breach of this limited Service warranty. Services which are reperformed shall carry a warranty equal to the unexpired portion of the
Service Warranty Period.

d. No warranty shall apply to Equipment which has been repaired or altered by others so as, in Heatec's judgment, to adversely affect the
same or which shall have been subject to negligence, accident, abuse or improper care, installation, maintenance, storage or other
than normal use or service, during or after shipment. No warranty shall apply to any used Equipment or for ordinary wear and tear, or
ordinary corrosion or erosion. No warranty shall apply to any Equipment adversely affected by being used with any machinery, part or
accessory not manufactured or authorized by Heatec. No warranty shall apply to consumables or parts having a life expectancy shorter
than the Equipment Warranty Period.

e. Except as expressly set forth in this Sales Proposal, Heatec does not warrant or represent that any Equipment furnished by it meets
any state or local safety, environmental or electrical regulations. Heatec is wholly discharged from all liability under this warranty in the
event that Purchaser fails to pay for the Equipment or Services in accordance with the applicable purchase terms. This Equipment
warranty extends only to the first end-user and is not transferable. This warranty may not be modified except pursuant to a written
agreement signed by Heatec.

f. THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES AND WARRANTY REMEDIES PROVIDED IN THIS PARAGRAPH 6 ARE THE SOLE AND
EXCLUSIVE WARRANTIES AND WARRANTY REMEDIES PROVIDED BY HEATEC TO PURCHASER AND ARE PROVIDED IN
LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED (EXCEPT WARRANTY OF TITLE), INCLUDING, BUT NOT
LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND ANY
IMPLIED WARRANTY FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE, ALL OF WHICH ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVED
AND DISCLAIMED.

7. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY: NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING ELSE TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE PARTIES
AGREE THAT IN NO EVENT OR CIRCUMSTANCE IS HEATEC LIABLE TO PURCHASER FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, COSTS OR LOSSES OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOST
PROFITS OR REVENUE, LOSS OF PRODUCTION, LOSS OF USE OR LOSS OF CONTRACTS, COSTS FOR RAW MATERIAL, ENERGY,
UTILITY, LABOR OR CAPITAL OR FOR ANY OTHER INDIRECT LOSS; OR FOR CLAIMS RAISED BY PURCHASER’S CUSTOMERS; AND
WHETHER BASED ON BREACH OF CONTRACT OR WARRANTY, TERMINATION, NEGLIGENCE, TORT, STRICT LIABLITY, INDEMNITY AT
LAW OR IN EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. IN NO EVENT SHALL HEATEC'S AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS
AGREEMENT, WHETHER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR
OTHERWISE, EXCEED THE TOTAL OF THE AMOUNTS PAID TO HEATEC FOR THE EQUIPMENT SOLD HEREUNDER.

8. SECURITY INTEREST; COST OF RECORDING: Purchaser hereby conveys and grants to Heatec a purchase money security interest in the
Equipment to secure payment by Purchaser of all amounts due hereunder including the Price and such other debts, obligations and liabilities of
Purchaser to Heatec which may now exist or hereafter arise, whether absolute or contingent, or primary or secondary, together with all extensions
or renewals for the foregoing and all expenses, legal or otherwise (including court costs and reasonable attorney's fees) incurred by Heatec in
collecting or endeavoring to collect any or all of the foregoing, in protecting any collateral and in enforcing the Agreement. The Equipment shall
remain personal property in all respects notwithstanding the manner of annexation of any of the Equipment to realty. Purchaser agrees to execute
any instrument or document considered necessary by Heatec to perfect its security interest in the Equipment, including, but not limited to, financing
statements, chattel mortgages, deeds of trust, deeds to secure debt, mortgages or other security instruments. Until default hereunder, Purchaser
may have possession of the Equipment and use the same in any lawful manner not inconsistent with this Proposal or with any policy of insurance
thereon. Purchaser will pay the costs and taxes due for recording and filing any Financing, Continuation or Termination Statements with respect to
Heatec's security interest in the Equipment or in connection with any of the other security documents referred to above.

9. EQUIPMENT NOT TO BE REMOVED: As long as the security interest in the Equipment is retained by Heatec, the Equipment shall not be removed
from the erection site and Purchaser shall not permit, voluntarily or involuntarily, the Equipment or any part of it to be sold, transferred, encumbered,
attached, seized or removed in any manner whatsoever.

10. DEFAULT: Upon default by Purchaser in the payment of the Price or any portion thereof when due or in the payment of all or any portion of any
other indebtedness secured under this Agreement when due or in the performance of any other term or provision hereof, all unpaid amounts due
Heatec shall thereupon be immediately due and payable and Heatec shall have the rights and remedies contained herein and the rights and
remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Tennessee or under the laws of any other jurisdiction as a court
of competent jurisdiction shall determine to be applicable. In the event of Purchaser’s default, the following provisions shall apply: (a) Purchaser
shall, upon request of Heatec, disassemble the Equipment and make it available to Heatec at a place designated by Heatec; (b) Heatec may enter
Purchaser's premises where any part of the Equipment is located, and take possession of and remove all or any portion of the Equipment for
purposes of disposition pursuant hereto; (c) Purchaser agrees that sales for cash or on credit to a wholesaler, retailer, or user or property of the
type subject to this Agreement or at public auction or private sale are all commercially reasonable; (d) Heatec shall give Purchaser notice of the
time and place of any sale of any of the Equipment or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition thereof is to be
made by notice, postage prepaid and addressed to Purchaser at the latest address of Purchaser appearing on the records of Heatec at least seven
(7) days before the time of the sale or other disposition, which provisions for notice Purchaser and Heatec agree are reasonable; (e) any proceeds
of any disposition of any of the Equipment may be first applied by Heatec to the payment of expenses in connection with exercising its rights and
remedies hereunder, including reasonable attorney's fees and legal expenses, and any balance of such proceeds may be applied as Heatec may
elect in its sole discretion; (f) if the sale or other disposition of the Equipment fails to satisfy in full obligations of Purchaser secured by this Agreement,
and the reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling and the like, including reasonable attorney's fees and legal expenses
incurred by Heatec in connection with this Agreement or the obligation it secures, Purchaser shall be liable for any deficiency.

11. PERMITS AND APPROVAL OF PLANS: Purchaser assumes all responsibility for securing any necessary governmental approvals of the plans
and specifications and any permits required for the installation and operation of the Equipment, all at Purchaser's expense.

Page 19
March 14, 2023 ASTEC PROPOSAL #: HI 23-14751
12. PERMIT CONTINGENCY: If the purchase of Equipment under this Agreement is contingent on Purchaser's receipt of one or more permits or other
governmental approvals, then the Price set forth in this Agreement will not be binding on Heatec. Once all contingencies have been fulfilled or are
waived, the Price will be determined by Heatec taking into account any increase in Heatec's cost of purchased components and/or raw materials,
among other factors.

13. COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS: Purchaser assumes all responsibility for complying with all federal, state and local statutes, laws,
codes, regulations and ordinances in connection with the installation and operation of the Equipment and any other activity related thereto, including,
without limitation, all federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations relating to pollution and protection of the environment and the
Occupational Safety and Health Act and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

14. PATENTS: In the event that any of the Equipment specified in this Agreement is based upon designs of or furnished by Purchaser, Purchaser shall
indemnify Heatec for any loss or expense incurred by it by reason of any claim for infringement of patents.

15. SHIPMENT:
a. If Purchaser is in default of any of its obligations under this Agreement, Heatec may, at its election, withhold any further performance
of its obligations and duties under this Agreement until such time as such default has been cured by Purchaser, in which event the
anticipated date of shipment as set forth herein shall be adjusted accordingly. Heatec shall not be liable or responsible for, nor shall the
Price be reduced by any amount because of any matters beyond the control of Heatec which delay or postpone the anticipated date
set forth above for the shipment of the Equipment, such matters including, but not limited to, warlike acts, civil disorder, governmental
restriction, acts of God, prior sale, acceptance of United States governmental contracts, strike, lockout, accidents, freight embargo, fire,
flood, inability of Heatec to obtain necessary materials, supplies, labor or transportation, pandemic, or any unforeseen water, soil or
rock conditions.

b. A detailed shipping list will accompany the bill of lading and Purchaser agrees to check the Equipment as it is unloaded and any claim
for shortage against Heatec will be made in writing within twenty-four (24) hours of time of unloading, to be followed by an affidavit (if
required) from the person in charge of the unloading. Claims for loss or damage in transit will be made on the carrier by Purchaser.

c. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, Purchaser has full responsibility for erection and installation of the Equipment.

d. Delivery period is based on current manufacturing load and is subject to change without notice. Long lead items will need to be ordered
prior to approvals in order to meet the quoted delivery date. If any of these items are changed during the approval process, charges
may result for restocking.

16. LATE CHARGES AND ATTORNEY'S FEES: Purchaser agrees that in the event any amount payable by Purchaser to Heatec remains unpaid for
more than 30 days, a service charge of 1.5% per month (18% per annum) or any portion thereof (or the highest rate of interest allowed by law,
whichever is less) shall accrue on such unpaid amount beginning on the thirty-first (31st) day after such date payment is due. If the indebtedness,
including late charges, arising out of this or any other transaction between Heatec and Purchaser is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection,
or is collected by and through an attorney, Purchaser will pay all costs of collection, including without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorney's
fees.

17. POSTPONED DELIVERY (INCLUDING SHIPPING DELAY): lf, through no fault of Heatec, delivery or shipment is delayed or postponed (including
deferral of shipment requested by Purchaser), Purchaser shall pay to Heatec any additional costs, including plant Equipment storage, handling,
and insurance, incurred by Heatec arising from such delay, deferral, or postponement. Such a delay, postponement or deferral is considered “offer
to ship” or “shipment” for all purposes, including invoicing, payment and transfer of title. Therefore, the balance remaining unpaid on the Price shall
become due and payable immediately. Purchaser shall bear the risk of loss of or damage to the Equipment during storage and thereafter. If, as a
result of the delay, postponement or deferral, the Equipment requires repainting, all costs associated with repainting shall be paid by the Purchaser.
Should Purchaser delay/postpone/defer shipment, Purchaser and Heatec will complete the attached “Postponed Delivery/Shipping Delay/Deferral
Notice”.

18. EQUIPMENT CERTIFICATION: Once certification and fabrication has been completed on any Equipment, if state certification specifications change
or unit(s) are to be shipped to a location other than that for which the certification was acquired, the cost of any recertification and/or modifications
required to be done on the Equipment shall be paid by Purchaser.

19. LIMITATION OF PROPOSAL: The Price and terms quoted in this Sales Proposal are subject to formal acceptance (i.e. signature on this Sales
Proposal) without change by Purchaser within a period 30 days from the date hereof, except that Heatec shall have the right to withdraw its Sales
Proposal at any time before formal acceptance by Purchaser.

20. EXECUTION OF CONTRACT: This Sales Proposal is merely the solicitation of an order and is not an offer from Heatec to Purchaser (even though
executed on behalf of Heatec under "RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED,") and does not obligate Heatec in any manner whatsoever until this
Agreement is both executed below on behalf of Purchaser as an order made to Heatec as well as executed below on behalf of Heatec as an
acceptance of such order from Purchaser, at which time this Agreement shall become a binding contract between Heatec and Purchaser. Once
this Agreement has become a binding contract, it cannot be suspended or cancelled without the prior written consent of Heatec, which may be
withheld in the sole discretion of Heatec. In the event Purchaser elects to cancel any order, or a portion of thereof, Heatec shall proportionally be
paid a percentage of the price of the cancelled order. This portion will be a minimum of ten percent (10%) of the total P.O. value, or will be a
percentage relative to the completed portion of the order, whichever is greater. This proportional percentage shall reflect the amount of materials
used, purchased materials, and/or work performed prior to the cancellation notice, plus any charges which Heatec can demonstrate resulted from
the cancellation including, but not limited to, storage fees, cancellation or restocking charges from sub-vendors, plus the cost of any non-returnable
items. Non-returnable items become the property of Purchaser and are delivered EXW Chattanooga-TN or sub-vendor location.

21. SEVERABILITY: If any provision of this Agreement is found to be legally invalid or unenforceable: (i) the validity and enforceability of the remainder
of this Agreement shall not be affected, (ii) such provision shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to make such provision
consistent with applicable law, and (iii) such provision shall be valid, enforceable and enforced in its modified form.

Page 20
March 14, 2023 ASTEC PROPOSAL #: HI 23-14751
22. ASSIGNMENT: Purchaser shall not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent
of Heatec. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Paragraph 22 is null and void. No assignment or delegation relieves
Purchaser of any of its obligations under this Agreement.

23. LAW CONTROLLING: This Agreement and all questions regarding the performance of the parties hereunder shall be controlled by the laws of the
State of Tennessee (without regard to conflicts of law). The parties agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International
Sale of Goods does not apply to this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated thereby.

24. DISPUTE RESOLUTION: Any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach, termination or invalidity thereof, and any
related tort, statutory and equitable claims (each a "Dispute"), which the parties are not able to settle amicably within 3 months from the first written
request for such settlement, shall be brought exclusively in a state or federal court in the State of Tennessee, County of Hamilton. The parties
hereby waive any right to challenge such choice of jurisdiction or venue or to seek transfer to another jurisdiction. THE PARTIES FURTHER
KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF THE DISPUTE.

25. TAXES: Prices quoted herein do not include any Federal, State or Municipal Taxes. If under existing or future law passed by the United States,
any state or any municipality, Heatec is required to pay or collect a tax, impost or charge upon the manufacture, sale, use or assembly of the
material described herein, the Price shall be increased by the amount of such tax, impost or charge. The amount of such increase is to be paid to
Heatec upon demand. If Purchaser holds resale tax permits and the material described herein is for resale, such information shall be shown by
Purchaser.

26. BACK-CHARGES AND ALLOWANCES: Heatec shall not be called upon to make any allowance for material, labor, repairs or alterations made
for its account unless authorized by Heatec in writing.

27. INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE PERIOD: Purchaser agrees to inspect the Equipment immediately after delivery to the site, but in no event
later than five (5) calendar days after such delivery (the "Acceptance Period"). Any defect discovered during the Acceptance period is subject to
the procedures and remedies set forth in Paragraph 6 (Warranty).

28. RESPONSIBILITY OF PURCHASER FOR OPERATION OF EQUIPMENT: The operation of the Equipment at all times shall be the sole and
exclusive responsibility of Purchaser. Any Services by Heatec's representatives shall be given solely in a consulting or advisory capacity and shall
not release Purchaser in any manner whatsoever from its responsibility for operating the Equipment.

29. INDEMNIFICATION: Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Heatec, its affiliates and their respective employees from and against any
and all liabilities, damages, obligations and claims (including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorney's fees) arising from or with
respect to the operation of the Equipment. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the parties acknowledge and agree that if a
claim initially was brought against Heatec for defective manufacture, design or the like and was finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
or otherwise settled (such settlement being with Purchaser's consent) on a basis relating to the negligent operation or use of the Equipment, Heatec
will be entitled to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of the preceding sentence.

30. TITLE AND RISK OF LOSS: Title to the Equipment shall pass to Purchaser upon shipment or offer to ship should Purchaser delay shipment.
The risk of loss or damage to the Equipment shall pass to Purchaser upon delivery of the Equipment (FCA point of shipment Heatec site, Incoterms
2020), unless transferred earlier in accordance with Paragraph 17 (Postponed Delivery (Including Shipping Delay)).

other party at the addresses set forth on the first page of this Sales Proposal. Each party shall deliver all Notices by personal delivery or through
deposit in the mail, certified or registered (in each case, return receipt requested, postage prepaid) or through a nationally recognized overnight
courier (with all fees prepaid). If Notice should be given immediately or promptly, then in addition to furnishing a copy of the Notice in the manner
aforesaid, a copy shall be sent via e-mail (with confirmation of transmission). A Notice is effective only (a) upon receipt by the receiving party and
(b) if the party giving the Notice has complied with the requirements of this Paragraph 31, unless the receiving party has waived its requirements
in writing. A copy of all notices to Heatec shall be sent to: Heatec, Inc., 1725 Shepherd Road, Chattanooga, TN 37421, Attn: Legal Counsel.

32. INSURANCE: Until the Equipment is accepted and the price is paid in full, Purchaser shall provide and maintain insurance for the full replacement
value of the Equipment against customary casualties and risks, including fire and explosion, and liability insurance for accidents or injuries to the
public or to employees, in the names of Heatec and Purchaser, as their interests may appear, and in amounts satisfactory to Heatec. If Purchaser
fails to provide such insurance, Heatec may provide it and the cost thereof shall be added to the contract price. All loss resulting from failure to
affect such insurance shall be the responsibility of Purchaser.

33. CHANGE ORDERS: Either Heatec or Purchaser may propose a change in the specifications for the Equipment or Services. Should any change
proposed by Heatec or Purchaser cause an increase or decrease in the cost of or time required for performance of this Agreement or otherwise
affect any provision of this Agreement, an adjustment shall be made to the corresponding provision(s) of this Agreement in accordance with this
Paragraph 33. Within ten (10) business days after receipt of Purchaser's proposal for a change, or with any proposal for a change by Heatec,
Heatec shall prepare and submit to Purchaser a change order in the form attached (the "Change Order"), which shall contain (i) a description of
the change, (ii) the net increase or decrease in the Price, (iii) the effect of the change on the estimated delivery schedule and (iv) a description of
changes to any other provisions of this Agreement. Purchaser shall accept or reject the Change Order within five (5) business days. No change
shall be effective unless evidenced by a written Change Order issued by Heatec and signed by authorized representatives of Purchaser and
Heatec; provided that if Purchaser does not notify Heatec of Purchaser's acceptance or rejection of any Change Order, then the Change Order
shall be deemed accepted by Purchaser and the parties shall proceed on the basis of the changes set forth therein. If Purchaser rejects a Change
Order, this Agreement shall continue to remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the parties' failure to agree to such Change Order, and the
parties shall continue to work reasonably and in good faith (but shall not be obligated) to reach a mutually acceptable agreement with respect to
such proposed changes; provided that Heatec shall not be required to proceed with any such proposed change until the parties have mutually
agreed on an appropriate Change Order. In the event that Heatec and Purchaser cannot agree to a change in Price, the change will be priced on
a time and materials basis, and Heatec's charges shall be equal to direct costs incurred by Heatec for labor, equipment and materials plus 27% for
overhead and profit as full compensation for such change. In the event that Heatec and Purchaser cannot agree to any other changes, such
dispute will be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures in Paragraph 24.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR ASTEC EQUIPMENT, PARTS AND SERVICES (International)

1. GENERAL.
These terms and conditions (“Terms”) will govern the sale of Equipment, Parts and Services by subsidiaries of Astec Industries, Inc. (each
subsidiary, as applicable, “Seller”) to a buyer (“Buyer”). These Terms, together with the Price (as defined below) and the payment and delivery
terms, description of Equipment, Parts and/or Services, Buyer’s name and address and any other information specifically stated in Seller’s
proposal, offer or quotation (any of which may be called a “Proposal”) or sales order acknowledgement are the entire agreement
(“Agreement”) between Buyer and Seller for Equipment, Parts and/or Services covered by Seller’s Proposal. The Agreement sets forth the
entire, exclusive and complete agreement of Seller and Buyer with respect to the sale and purchase of the Equipment, Parts and/or Services
and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous written or oral agreement, understanding and communications and any course of dealing,
usage of trade or course of performance. The Agreement prevails over any of Buyer's terms and conditions of purchase or purchase order,
regardless of whether or when Buyer submitted such terms and conditions or purchase order. SELLER’S SALE OF ANY EQUIPMENT,
PARTS OR SERVICE IS SUBJECT TO AND EXPRESSLY CONDITIONED ON BUYER’S ASSENT TO THESE TERMS, AND SELLER
OBJECTS TO ANY ADDITIONAL OR DIFFERENT TERMS. For purposes of these Terms:
(a) “Equipment” means equipment manufactured or sold by Seller or its affiliates;
(b) “Parts” means any parts manufactured or sold by Seller or its affiliates for Equipment or other equipment; and
(c) “Services” means assembly and commissioning of the Equipment, warranty work by Seller or its dealers or agents, and/or other services
as stated in Seller’s Proposal (“Services”).

2. PRICE.
Subject to Section 3 below and unless stated otherwise in Seller’s Proposal, the price Seller has quoted for the sale of Equipment, Parts
and/or Services (“Price”) is firm for 30 days from its original date, unless sooner withdrawn by Seller. Unless stated otherwise in Seller’s
Proposal, Prices quoted do not include taxes whether present or future, direct or indirect (except for taxes levied on Seller’s income), levies,
duties, tariffs, or other costs associated with the sale (such as freight or other transportation costs) and Buyer must promptly pay all such
amounts in full, or reimburse Seller for any such amounts Seller has paid or such other amount as indicated in Seller’s Proposal. If freight is
prepaid by Seller, a separate invoice may be issued for freight charges. Prices are based on Seller’s good faith estimates of the costs of steel
and other commodities and of purchased sub-components as of the date of Seller’s Proposal and Seller reserves the right to increase prices
in the event of significant rises in commodity costs or in the costs of purchased sub-components incorporated into the Equipment or the Parts,
whether attributable to tariffs or duties or otherwise. If prior to delivery of any Equipment or Parts, new or revised government standards or
regulations are promulgated which would increase the cost of the Equipment or Parts, the prices shall be increased to compensate Seller for
such increased costs.

3. SCOPE OF SERVICES.
(a) General. The scope of the Services provided under the Agreement is limited to the description of Services in Seller’s Proposal and the
provision of technical information about Equipment, Parts and/or Services.
(b) Repair/Rebuild Services. If Seller repairs or rebuilds machines or components for Buyer, such Services may include installation of new,
used or refurbished parts, components and/or materials, and reassembly of Buyer’s machine or components. If Buyer accepts Seller’s
Proposal for repair or rebuild Services and, if after further inspection, Seller determines additional or different parts, components or materials
should be rebuilt or replaced, Seller will notify Buyer and provide Buyer with a revised Proposal. Seller does not agree to perform any Services
until Buyer accepts Seller’s original or revised Proposal, as applicable; however, if Buyer requests and receives Services from Seller
substantially as described in Seller’s latest Proposal, Buyer will be deemed to have accepted that Proposal (including these Terms) even
though Buyer may not have accepted that Proposal in writing.

4. SHIPMENT.
Unless stated otherwise in Seller’s Proposal or sales order acknowledgement, all shipments are FCA Seller’s plant, warehouse or other
designated shipping point (INCOTERMS® 2010). All shipment/delivery dates quoted are estimates and are not guaranteed unless stated
otherwise in Seller’s Proposal or sales order acknowledgment and are conditioned upon Buyer promptly providing necessary releases and
approvals. Unless otherwise stated in Seller’s Proposal, Seller may make partial shipments and may, during periods of shortage due to
causes beyond the control of Seller or its suppliers, prorate its supply of products among its customers in such manner as may be deemed
equitable in the sole judgment of Seller. Buyer will be charged for export packing or other special packing if required. No credit or deduction
will be allowed if no packing is required.

5. RISK OF LOSS/TITLE/SECURITY INTEREST.


Title to, and all risk of loss for, each Part and each component of Equipment will pass to Buyer when it is delivered to the carrier. Buyer grants
Seller a purchase money security interest in the Equipment and Parts until paid for in full and agrees to sign and authorizes the filing of
whatever documents Seller reasonably requests to perfect that security interest. In any jurisdiction that does not recognize a purchase money
security interest, Buyer will comply with local laws and regulations regarding Seller’s security interest or similar interest or rights recognized by
local law or provide other security acceptable to Seller.

6. CLAIMS FOR SHORTAGE.


Any claims for loss, breakage or damage, obvious or concealed, are Buyer’s responsibility and should be made to the carrier. Seller will
render Buyer reasonable assistance in securing satisfactory adjustment of such claims. Any notices of shortages or other errors must be
made in writing to Seller within 15 days after receipt of shipment. Failure to give such notice shall constitute unqualified acceptance and a
waiver of all claims for damage or shortage by Buyer.

7. WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES.


The warranties and remedies in Seller's Standard Warranty Policy (either attached hereto and/or included in Seller’s Proposal) shall apply with
regard to the Equipment, Parts and/or Services sold under the Agreement. Buyer shall have paid all sums due to Seller before any warranty

▪ 30% of the Price 60 days after receipt of Purchase order
▪ 30% of the Price 90 days after receipt of Purchase order
▪ 10% of the Price when the equipment or major components are ready to ship, unless Seller performs assembly and commissioning

commissioning and completion of work, but in no event later than 6 months from complete FCA shipment.
Any modification in the payment schedule may result in a Price adjustment.
Buyer acknowledges that all extensions of credit shall be subject to approval by Seller’s Credit Department. A delinquency charge of 1.5% per
month (18% per year) or the lesser legal rate, if any, may be assessed on all invoices not paid in full when due.

9. EXCUSABLE EVENTS.
Seller will have the right to an equitable adjustment in the Price and the time for performance of any of its obligations based upon: (a) delays
resulting from Buyer’s acts or omissions or those of Buyer’s contractors, subcontractors, or anyone else for whom Buyer may be liable; (b) the
occurrence of any events or matters which are beyond Seller’s control such as (without limitation) acts of God, fire, explosion, severe weather,
civil disturbances, war, terrorism, governmental acts or omissions, strikes or labor disputes, transportation delays or non-delivery or unusual
delays in delivery by Seller’s suppliers; or (c) discovery of any concealed or unknown physical condition or hazardous or toxic material, waste
or substance at Buyer’s mine site or the Equipment assembly or other work site.

10. CONFIDENTIALITY.
Buyer agrees that the contents of Seller’s Proposal and any drawings, specifications, computer programs, technical data, and other
documents or information Seller furnishes, including any intellectual property rights in them relating to the design, manufacture, engineering,
sale, installation, operation, repair, maintenance and/or pricing of any Equipment or Parts: (a) will be retained in confidence and not disclosed
to third parties; (b) will remain Seller’s exclusive property, and (c) will be used by Buyer only in connection with the Agreement and not in any
manner Seller has not expressly authorized. Buyer also agrees that Buyer will return such materials to Seller upon Seller’s request. The
obligations of this section shall survive the termination of, and/or completion of Seller’s performance under, the Agreement.

11. RESPONSIBILITY OF BUYER FOR OPERATION OF EQUIPMENT.


The operation of the Equipment shall be the sole and exclusive responsibility of Buyer. Any assistance rendered by Seller's representatives in
connection with the preliminary operations and demonstrations of capacity and performance of the Equipment or in any other capacity shall be
given solely in a consulting or advisory capacity and shall not release Buyer in any manner whatsoever from its responsibility for operating the
Equipment. Buyer shall operate the Equipment in compliance with any operations manual or instructions for the Equipment. Buyer shall
comply with all applicable rules, laws, and regulations in connection with operation of the Equipment. Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless Seller, its affiliates and their respective employees and agents from and against any and all liabilities, damages, obligations and
claims (including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorney's fees) arising from or with respect to the operation of the Equipment
or the acts or omissions of Buyer. The obligations of this section shall survive the termination of, and/or completion of Seller’s performance
under, the Agreement.

12. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.


IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER BE LIABLE FOR, AND BUYER WAIVES ALL CLAIMS AGAINST SELLER (AND AGAINST SELLER'S
AFFILIATES, CONTRACTORS, SUBCONTRACTORS, CONSULTANTS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS AND VENDORS) FOR, ANY LOSS OF
PROFITS OR REVENUES, LOSS OF OPPORTUNITY OR PRODUCTIVITY, INCREASED OPERATIONAL OR CAPITAL COSTS OR
EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (ALL OF THESE WHETHER DIRECT OR INDIRECT) OR ANY OTHER CONSEQUENTIAL,

NOT LIMITED TO, TORT, INDEMNITY, OR CONTRIBUTION), IN AN AGGREGATE AMOUNT GREATER THAN THE PRICE OF THE
EQUIPMENT, PARTS AND/OR SERVICES SOLD UNDER THE AGREEMENT THAT GAVE RISE TO THE CLAIM. IF SELLER’S
WARRANTY PROVISIONS ARE DETERMINED TO FAIL OF THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE FOR ANY REASON, OR ARE HELD
INVALID OR UNENFORCEABLE, BUYER AND SELLER EACH AGREE THAT ALL LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY IN THE AGREEMENT
WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IS A MATERIAL BASIS FOR THE PARTIES' BARGAIN AND REFLECTS

13. GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION.

related to this Agreement will be governed by, the laws of the State of Tennessee, USA, without giving effect to that State’s conflict of laws
principles. The transactions hereunder shall not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of

them in writing through its authorized representative (in a change order or otherwise). None of Seller’s rights or remedies will be waived, in
whole or in part, unless Seller expresses such waiver in writing, and none of Seller’s rights or remedies will be impaired if Seller delays or fails
to exercise them or exercises them partially. Unless expressly stated otherwise in Seller’s Proposal, Seller may without liability to Buyer (i)
furnish substitutes for materials which cannot be reasonably obtained because of any restrictions, voluntarily or compulsorily established by or
in connection with any governmental authority or program, or (ii) make design modifications which do not adversely affect product use or
performance. If any section in this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such section shall be enforced to

Seller will perform its obligations under the Agreement in accordance with Seller’s good faith interpretation of applicable national codes and
regulations. Seller will not be liable for injuries resulting from the removal, defeat or modification of instructions, notices or warnings, guards or

and governmental fees, inspections and approvals necessary for the importation, installation, erection, and use of the Equipment and/or Parts.
Buyer and its employees and subcontractors will not engage with any “anti-social forces” (such as organized crime, hate groups, gangs,
terrorists, etc.) which pose a threat to the order and safety of civil society, and agree that such anti-social activity will be cause for immediate
termination of this Agreement. Buyer represents and warrants that it is not the subject of sanctions by any government authority due to
allegations of corruption, money laundering, terrorism financing or other illegal or unethical behavior and that Seller shall have the unilateral
right to suspend or terminate this Agreement without notice if Buyer becomes the subject of any such sanctions or any other type of
government imposed measures which Seller, in its sole discretion, believes restrict its ability to continue performing its obligations under this
Agreement. Both Buyer and Seller agree to conduct all activities in relation to this Agreement in compliance with applicable laws, rules and
regulations concerning or relating to bribery or corruption, including the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Seller will secure and pay
for permits required for it to perform Services. Buyer must promptly reimburse Seller if Seller must secure or pay for any license, fee,
inspection or approval to perform Services.

16. PATENTS.
Buyer will indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless for any loss or expense incurred by it by reason of any claim for infringement of patents
that relates to (i) any modification of such Equipment by anyone other than Seller; (ii) the use of such Equipment with any equipment or parts
not provided by Seller; or (iii) any feature of such Equipment that was constructed or configured according to specifications that Buyer
provided.

17. SOFTWARE LICENSE.


The Equipment or Parts may have embedded software or use application software developed by or for Seller or its affiliates (“Software”) and
contain valuable proprietary information. THE SOFTWARE MAY BE CRITICAL TO THE SAFE OPERATION OF THE EQUIPMENT. Seller
grants Buyer a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use Software solely in connection with the operation of the Equipment, subject to the
following: (a) Buyer acquires no title or other rights to Software or any patents, copyrights or other intellectual property of Seller; (b) Buyer may
not copy, reproduce, decompile or reverse engineer Software, load Software on any computer or other equipment, incorporate any portion of
Software into other software, modify, adapt, or create derivative works of Software, disclose Software to third parties, or remove Seller’s or any
third party's trademark, copyright or other proprietary notices from Software or its output; and (c) transfer of Software in connection with
Buyer’s resale of Equipment is subject to Seller’s prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld, and Buyer’s delivery to Seller
of the purchaser’s written consent to these license terms. Unauthorized use or transfer of Software by Buyer will void applicable Equipment
warranties and Buyer will indemnify and defend Seller against any claims for personal injury, death or property damage that result and be
liable for damages for violation of these license terms. Buyer has title to all raw operational data regarding Buyer’s operations or equipment
input into the Software, but grants Seller a license to all data, data files, and reports, subject to the following: (i) Seller will not knowingly
disclose identifiable Buyer data without Buyer’s consent; (ii) Seller may use such data in Seller’s internal business, including the improvement
of its products and services; and (iii) Seller may aggregate Buyer’s data with similar data from other customers for purposes of analysis,
evaluation, training, instruction, or promotion. Seller may also provide third party software with Equipment, which is separately licensed by the
third parties, and Buyer agrees to comply with the terms of the third-party software licenses. A copy of any applicable third-party software
license is available upon request from Seller.

may require (as liquidated damages and not as a penalty) cancellation fees up to the greater of (i) all payments made or payable on that order
as of the date of termination, or (ii) 20% of the Price plus all Seller’s costs and expenses associated with the cancellation. Buyer agrees that
the amounts referred to in the previous sentence constitute Seller’s best good faith estimate of the loss it is likely to suffer in the event of early
cancellation.

19. TERMINATION.
In addition to any other remedies that may be provided hereunder, Seller may terminate this Agreement with immediate effect
upon written notice to Buyer if Buyer (i) fails to pay any amount when due under this Agreement and such failure continues for
thirty (30) days after Buyer's receipt of written notice of nonpayment; (ii) has not otherwise performed or complied with any
material term of this Agreement, in whole or in part; or (iii) becomes insolvent, files a petition for bankruptcy or commences or
has commenced against it proceedings relating to bankruptcy, receivership, reorganization or assignment for the benefit of
