Platinum Plan Enrollment

Dear Valued Customer,

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for being a valued customer. Last winter brought warmer temperatures which helped with the higher cost of fuel. Winter started with very high prices breaking $6.00 per gallon; however, as a Platinum Plan customer, you had the peace of mind of price protection and continued to pay lower prices for your fuel.

As we come into spring and begin planning for another New England winter, we urge our customers that price protection is still as important as ever. As fuel prices remain volatile, with lots going on globally in the oil market that could increase prices again. At the same time, we face talks of a recession, which could lower oil prices rapidly, like in 2008. It’s important to remember we do not know where things will go from here. Having a monthly payment plan that you can count on assures that your fuel is taken care of, and when fuel prices begin to drop, you can rest easy knowing that you will be getting the lower price per gallon.

Like in previous years, our Platinum Plan will give you the advantage of a stable fuel cost as well as a guarantee that, if the price drops, you will always get our best price. For even greater value, we have included a service plan as part of your payments which means you will never have to worry about unexpected service costs. Our service plans go above and beyond to cover every part of your heating system.

We appreciate your trust in our company, and we look forward to continuing to exceed your expectations as we plan for another Maine Winter.

Sincerely,

The Estes Team

I have read and agree to the terms and conditions.

A minimum usage of 400 gallons is required.

First payment must be received upon receipt of your signed contract; every additional payment is due on the first of the month. Estes Oil & Propane will consider payment as acceptance of this contract.

Customer shall be on Automatic Delivery and will remain on Automatic Delivery until customer cancels in writing or by email.

For customer wishing to opt out of Auto Payment, a credit card must be on file for any budget payments not made within 60 days of the due date.

In order to participate in this program, the balance of account must be current. All payment must be received within the first 15 days of the month, to avoid a late fee. Any outstanding non budget balances will be charged to the credit card on file after 30 days. All payments must be up to date within a 30-day grace period or this contract is null and void.

Estes Oil & Propane estimates all usage based on a three-year history or any history that is available to us. If a customer exceeds the estimated number of gallons, Estes Oil & Propane reserves the right to adjust the customer’s payment.

Customer shall provide truck access to the fill pipes and/or fuel tank, including but not limited to removal of ice and snow. Estes Oil & Propane reserves the right to charge the customer for wrecker charges should we need to be towed.

At the end of this contract, we reserve the right, if more than 25% of the estimated gallons remain unused, to assess a liquidation damage charge. The charge will be the difference between the contract oil price and the cash price as of the final date of the contract.

Any credit balance remaining on the account at the end of the contract period will be used to purchase additional gallons at the daily price or service.

The capped price of this agreement is $3.79 per gallon and is accepted with the receipt of payment. Estes Oil & Propane assumes all risks if prices increase during this agreement. Estes Oil & Propane agrees to give the customer whatever the best price is on the day of delivery, whether it is the capped or the market price. The capped price is subject to change without notice based on market conditions.

Estes Oil & Propane agrees to give the customer the daily rate if the rate is lower than the capped price indicated on this contract. The charge for the cap protection is a 40 cents-per-gallon fee that is charged to the account at the start of this agreement. This charge is non-refundable.

Service included is the Blue Ribbon Plan ($459). See plan terms and conditions within the Estes Oil & Propane Service Plan brochure or at www.estesoil.com.

All customers have the right to opt out of this contract; however, with the denial of this contract Estes Oil & Propane reserves the right to reassess and change all credit terms given to a customer. Estes Oil & Propane will run a new credit report for all customers choosing to opt out of this Plan.

Due to the inherent volatility of the heating market, termination of contract or liquidation at this time during the contract period will be subject to a liquidation damage charge. The charge will be the difference between the contract fuel price and the cash price or the cash price minus contract price at the time of termination(s) multiplied by the remaining unused gallons.

THE AGREEMENT EXERCISED IN THIS CONTRACT IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH MAINE STATE LAW SECTION 10 MRSA § 1110
