ITEM 1.01             ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

 

JEI Distributing, LLC (the “Company”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Jacobs Entertainment, Inc. (the “Registrant”), has entered into fuel supply agreements with CITGO Petroleum Corporation (“CITGO”).  The agreements provide for the purchase and sale of CITGO branded and unbranded gasoline and diesel fuel. The Registrant had previously entered into individually immaterial fuel supply agreements, which have now been consolidated into material agreements.

 

The Company and CITGO entered into a five-year Marketer Franchise Agreement on December 21, 2009 (the “MFA”).  The MFA creates a franchise relationship between the Company and CITGO and requires the Company to purchase at least 90% of certain listed monthly quantities of gasoline from CITGO in order to maintain the franchise and not be in violation of the MFA.  Under the MFA, CITGO grants the Company for the term of the MFA, the right to use CITGO’s applicable brand names, trademarks and other forms of CITGO’s identification, in the manner established by CITGO, in connection with the resale by the Company of products acquired under CITGO’s brand names.  The MFA also requires the Company to indemnify CITGO against liabilities arising in connection with performance under the MFA and contains, among other things, customary provisions in respect of insurance, fuel pricing, payment and delivery.

 

The Company and CITGO also entered into an Unbranded Rack Sales Agreement dated December 21, 2009 (the “RSA”).  Although the initial term of the RSA is five years followed by annual renewals, the RSA provides that either party may terminate the RSA, without cause, upon providing thirty days written notice.  The RSA requires the Company to purchase at least 90% of certain listed monthly quantities of fuel from CITGO in order to qualify for CITGO’s rack posting pricing in effect and not be in violation of the RSA. The RSA also requires the Company to indemnify CITGO against liabilities arising in connection with performance under the RSA and contains, among other things, customary provisions in respect of insurance, fuel pricing, payment and delivery.  The Addendum to Unbranded Rack Sales Agreement between the Company and CITGO, also dated December 21, 2009 (the “Addendum”), amends the pricing for unbranded fuel under the RSA.  The amended pricing equals the sum of the base price and an adder fee that is dependent on the location of the terminal where the product is delivered.  The Registrant has requested confidential treatment for specific pricing information as set forth in the Addendum, and that portion has been omitted from the attached Addendum, filed as Exhibit 10.37, as indicated thereon.
