1. Introduction

This document sets out the Sunrise Energy (Pty) Ltd (hereinafter referred to as 'Sunrise Energy' or 'the Licensee') allocation mechanism as required by the Regulations published under. GNR 342 Government Gazette No. 30905 of 4 April 2008 in terms of the Petroleum Pipelines Act, 2003 (Act No. 60 of 2003) and its operating licence. It has been compiled in accordance with the National Energy Regulator of South Africa (NERSA) Allocation Mechanism Guidelines for Third Party Access to Petroleum Storage Facilities (dd. 26 November 2009).

Sunrise Energy operates a 25-year licensed liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) Import Terminal in Saldanha Bay, Western Cape. The Terminal allows for the loading, offloading and storage of LPG, Propane and Butane.

Sunrise Energy is 60% owned by MOGS Oil and Gas Services (MOGS), 31% by the Industrial Development Corporation (IDC) and 9% by llitha Group Holdings. The Terminal is a Level 1 contributor to B-BBEE (latest certificate available on request).

The Terminal is in commercial operation from May 2017. The project is designed in a modular way to respond to growth in the South African LPG market demand. A second and third phases are expected to be developed at a later stage.

Phase 1, to which this manual relates, consists of the following:

A Storage Facility

• Five cylindrical bullets (horizontal tanks) each with an operational storage capacity of 1,100 tons and a throughput capacity of 3,300 tons per month, total throughput of 16,500 tons per month

• Three road tanker loading gantries

A Loading (Discharge) Facility

• A floating multi-buoy mooring (MBM) anchored in the Saldanha Bay harbour at approximately 33°01 '55" S 1 r59'35" E

• A 12-inch diameter approximately 3.2 km long undersea pipeline, from the MBM to reach land at approximately 33°00'24" S 18°00'34" E

• A 12-inch diameter approximately 2.1 km long pipeline buried on land from approximately 33°00'24" S 18°00'34" E to the onshore storage facility referred to above

P13

The Terminal is designed to maximise throughput.

The throughput capacities are negotiated based on the market requirements.

The products to be stored and dispatched during the throughput process will be offloaded from vessels via the MBM loading (discharge) facility located in Saldanha Bay. The vessels must meet the minimum requirements as per the attached MBM checklist. While connected to the MBM, a ship is anchored in approximately 10.4-metre deep water and tied to and held in position by four buoys at the bow and at the stern of the ship.

The pipelines are capable of handling flow rates of 550 m3 per hour for Propane and LPG at a minimum/maximum pressure of 14/17 bar and at a minimum/maximum temperature of oo I 40° Celsius.

Over land, LPG and Propane can be loaded out of the storage facility using:

• Road loading gantry (3 loading bays in phase 1, up to 6 bays in phase 3) at the nominal loading rate of 80 m3/hour, which can be upgraded to 138 m3/hour

• Future development- Rail loading, configuration to be determined based on market requirements

• Future development - Direct pipeline to local industry or third party users at 220 m3/hour (as required with or without vapour return)

In addition, the third party indemnifies and holds harmless Sunrise Energy to any claims arising out of such non-compliance.

5. Contractual Terms and Conditions of Use 5.1. Uncommitted Capacity

The word 'uncommitted capacity' means capacity determined by the Energy Regulator that is not required to meet contractual obligations.

Uncommitted capacity in the context of this document refers to the 'throughput capacity'.

The allocation rule principle for any uncommitted capacity will be the following:

• 'First come, first serve' principle: The first party to enquire regarding uncommitted capacity will be granted the first option to such capacity, provided that existing customers have had the opportunity to exercise their right of first refusal for their contracted capacity.

• 'Use-it-or-lose-it' principle: Should a client consistently not utilise committed capacity in accordance with the contractual agreement between Sunrise Energy and the client, Sunrise Energy will, after consultation with the Client, and by mutual agreement and in accordance with the conditions specified in the Commercial Agreement, be authorised to allocate the unused capacity to third parties who have requested additional capacity.

Applications for unallocated capacity must be commercially, operationally and technically feasible. Strict adherence to Sunrise Energy's safety rules, regulations and procedures will be required and failure to adhere thereto may result in the refusal of further operations for the relevant third party and cancellation of the contract, if already in place.

Sunrise Energy will not discriminate between customers or classes of customers in accordance with section 21 of the Petroleum Pipelines Act, 2003 (Act No. 60 of 2003).

5.2. Capacity Schedul~ng and Planning

5

Page 8: pg ANNEXURE 1 . J - NERSA · ; SUNRISE ENERGY LPG IMPORT TERMINAL IN SALDANHA BAY Sunrise Energy (Pty) Ltd (Company Registration Number: 2005/027952/07) PHASE 1: Loading and Storage

P16

After the necessary contractual arrangements have been put in place, the following process should be followed regarding the planning and scheduling of the utilisation of additional uncommitted capacity at the Sunrise Energy Import Terminal.

5.2.1. Initial notification

Twenty days prior to the delivery date, a Client shall provide Sunrise Energy with:

• A three-day delivery range to be narrowed to a two-day range from the first day of the· vessel's time of arrival at the MBM

• provision of the ship Q88, • The quality and quantity of the products to be delivered • The plan to remove the product from the bullet within 1 0 (ten) days, in the event of the

throughput contract

Clients shall provide Sunrise Energy with full instructions in writing at least 15 (fifteen) days prior to the first day of the delivery slot to allow Sunrise Energy to prepare for the operation and for the preparation of the necessary documentation.

5.2.2. Ship Delivery Orders

The delivery of a shipment will be confirmed with at least 1 0 (ten) business days in advance of the three-day delivery range, by provision of the name of the Client's nominated ship, a valid certificate of origin, the expected date of the ship's arrival in port and the quality and estimated volume of the product to be delivered. Sunrise Energy shall review the information provided and confirm the order with the Client. The Order Quantity will be provisional only and the actual quantity offloaded will depend on the ullage available as per the contracted capacity at the time that the ship arrives in Saldanha Bay.

Prior to offloading, the quantity and quality of the product on the ship will be verified by the Independent Surveyor/Inspection company. The product will only be offloaded if it meets the SANS 1774 specifications, the ullage available and Sunrise Energy requirements.

During ship offloading, several samples of the offloaded product will be taken (via the sample point located on the import pipeline, upstream of the storage vessel inlet manifold). The quality information from the most representative samples will be averaged and a Certificate of Analysis will be produced by the Independent Surveyor/Inspection company who will operate the on­site Laboratory on an independent basis, for the product offloaded.

On completion of ship offloading, the quantity of the product delivered will be certified by the Independent Surveyor/Inspection company. Several sources of measurement will be used to determine the Offloaded Quantity, including:

• Mass measurement (primary source) • Vessel inventory calculations • Surveyor/ship readings

The agreed Offloaded Quantity (as well as the Quality) will be recorded in the ERP system as a Lot. A Ship Delivery Confirmation Report will be issued to the Client as a record of the ship offloading transaction.

5.2.3. Batching of Storage Vessels (Buffets)

6

Page 9: pg ANNEXURE 1 . J - NERSA · ; SUNRISE ENERGY LPG IMPORT TERMINAL IN SALDANHA BAY Sunrise Energy (Pty) Ltd (Company Registration Number: 2005/027952/07) PHASE 1: Loading and Storage

P17

Batching refers to the process of verifying that the contents of a storage vessel ("bullet") complies with the applicable quality and other technical requirements and is ready to be dispatched from Sunrise facility. In order to batch a storage vessel, the vessel will be circulated and a sample of the content will be taken and analysed by the Laboratory Technician (via the sample point downstream of the Vessel Transfer Pump). The Laboratory Technician will produce a Certificate of Analysis of the vessel contents, reporting the physical properties against the SANS specifications. ·

Once a Certificate of Analysis is obtained, the vessel will be recorded as "Batched" in the Terminal Management System {TMS). The Batched Vessel will be tagged on the Data and Communication Server (DCS) as such. Any dispatch of product from the Sunrise facility must be from a Batched Vessel so that a Quality Certificate can be associated with the product.

5.2.4. Allocation Orders

Clients who sell product to their customers shall issue allocation orders to Sunrise Energy, which shall enable Sunrise Energy to assign client stock ("allocation quantity") to various customers or transfer stock between customers in the Sunrise ERP. This will not result in a financial transaction in the Sunrise system.

The Sunrise ERP System will validate that the allocation quantity is less than the total stock available to the client on the day of the order.

5.2.5. Road Dispatch Orders

Road dispatch orders are applicable to the dispatch of product via road tankers and may be received directly from the customer or via the Client. The order will only be accepted by Sunrise Energy if the customer has sufficient allocated quantity available.

Road dispatches must be scheduled three days ·in advance. Unscheduled road dispatches can be accommodated on the day only if there is capacity to do so and after planned orders have been fulfilled.

The Sunrise Operations Planner will confirm the requested date of dispatch in accordance with the Dispatch Order based on operations planning, including the availability of a Batched Vessel for the dispatch of the appropriate product and the number of Tankers that can be accommodated on a specific day. Customers will be requested to indicate the time of arrival of the Road Tanker. In the initial eleven (11) months of operation, where only LPG mix will be handled by the Terminal, Tankers will be queued at the facility as per the agreed truck schedule. Once there is a requirement to load other products (i.e. Propane), time slots will be allocated in the agreed truck schedule.

Customer Dispatch Orders cannot be processed or accepted without prior verification of the Tankers (Tractor and Trailer), as well as the Drivers, that will be used to transport the product. To this end, the Customer must ensure that their nominated carriers have registered their Tankers and Drivers on the Sunrise Energy database. This will include the provision of all valid documentation, licences and safety certificates specified by Sunrise Energy, as well as the tare weights of the tankers, tank volumes and gross vehicle weights.

If a Tanker does not arrive on the scheduled day, the order will be cancelled and the customer will be required to place a new dispatch order for an alternative date.

Road Tankers will be loaded by weight (using weigh scale measurements). The allowable load quantity will automatically be calculated by the TMS, based on the tanker specification weights

7

Page 10: pg ANNEXURE 1 . J - NERSA · ; SUNRISE ENERGY LPG IMPORT TERMINAL IN SALDANHA BAY Sunrise Energy (Pty) Ltd (Company Registration Number: 2005/027952/07) PHASE 1: Loading and Storage

P18 .

recorded in the Sunrise database. This will prevent overfilling of tankers or manual filling by means of tri-cock measurement.

The actual quantity loaded will be recorded by the TMS and the results sent to the ERP for inventory management.

. On completion of loading, the tanker driver will collect the final load paperwork from the gatehouse, which will include the Bill of Lading and Dangerous Good Declaration, including the product Quality Information.

5.3. Capacity of the Bullets

Phase 1 consists of a total volume of 5 X 1,1 00 ton bullets with an operational capacity of 5,500 tons.

All measurements are done in mass terms (e.g. kilograms, tons, and so forth).

5.3.1. Metering

Sunrise Energy utilises Coriolis (Mass) Meters for custody metering of the product offloaded from the ship into the receiving bullets. When product is received from the ship, this is used as the primary measurement, however the value. is checked and verified against the bullet inventory changes. An Independent Surveyor signs off on the agreed quantity offloaded from the ship.

For Road Dispatch operations, the quantity of product dispatched is measured by means of Weighbridges. The empty weight of the road tanker is measured before and after loading, with the net quantity being equivalent to the quantity loaded and dispatched.

Certificates of calibration are available on request.

5.3.2. Quantity Dispute

Any losses below or equal to 0.5% are industry norms and will not be the liability of Sunrise Energy. Any losses above the 0.5% threshold must be proven and an auditing process will determine whose liability it is.

Please contact the Sunrise Energy for information on other types of liabilities.

5.4. Product Type and Quality Control

5.4.1. Minimum Standards

The facility will initially, for the first eleven (11) months, handle LPG only. Thereafter, it will accommodate Propane and Butane. All products must comply with SANS 1774:2016. In addition to the SANS specifications for LPG, Sunrise Energy requires that the Propane content of the LPG be between 60% (minimum) and 70% (maximum) by weight.

As explained above sampling and analysis will be required on vessel arrival. Should product not meet the specification, third parties/suppliers will be informed immediately. Remedial action plans will be negotiated. -

5.4.2. Sampling Methods and Testing

The following fixed sampling points are provided at the Terminal:

• On the import line- for the sampling of product transferred from the ship to the bullets.

8

Page 11: pg ANNEXURE 1 . J - NERSA · ; SUNRISE ENERGY LPG IMPORT TERMINAL IN SALDANHA BAY Sunrise Energy (Pty) Ltd (Company Registration Number: 2005/027952/07) PHASE 1: Loading and Storage

P19

o Discharge of each transfer pump- bullets are circulated, sampled and tested and then batched if the physical properties meet SANS specifications.

A Technician from the Independent Surveyor/Inspection company will install the sample cylinders into the samplers and will witness all sampling. The Independent Surveyor/Inspection company operating the onsite laboratory will be responsible for testing the product sampled and will provide Sunrise Energy with a Certificate of Analysis to confirm that the product is within SANS specification limits.

5.4.3. Slops Management

No slops management is required for this type of product.

5.5. Control and Care Transfer 5. 5. 1. Entry/Exit Points and Allocation of Risks

Aggregators, Sunrise Energy's Clients, wiil consolidate orders from customers and accordingly bring in shipments of product to meet these orders .. The Aggregator/Ciient will then issue allocation orders to Sunrise based on their customers' orders. This means that Sunrise Energy will be able to allocate or assign product to customers based on instruction from its clients. Customers will only be able to receive LPG from the loading gantries if Sunrise Energy has received from the Aggregator/Ciient a valid allocation order for the customer.

The products shall be deemed to have been delivered by the Client to Sunrise Energy at the MBM:

.- Iimmediately upon the products passing the connecting flange of the pipeline at the MBM connected to the manifold of the ship.

The products shall be deemed to have been delivered by Sunrise Energy to the Customer at the gantry when the product passes the Sunrise Energy Terminal gantry flange connecting to the customer road truck.

From the point of delivery and until redeliverY of the products, Sunrise Energy will be responsible for rendering the services in terms of the LPG Handling and Throughput Agreement. Sunrise Energy shall not be liable or responsible for any services rendered to the customer by third party service providers or loss or damage caused to the products before the point of delivery and after redelivery of the products.

5.5.2. Authenticity Verification

Customers will nominate carrier companies to load and dispatch product on their behalf. Prior to picking up product from Sunrise Energy, Customers will inform Sunrise Energy of their carrier company details. Carrier companies will need to pre-register their tankers and drivers with Sunrise Energy, failing which they will not be allowed onto site. Sunrise Energy will verify the credentials, licences, and relevant certificates to ensure that the Tank~rs/Drivers comply with all relevant safety standards. Additionally, Drivers will need to undergo site-specific safety inductions.

Furthermore, Sunrise Energy will inspect all tankers prior to loading and will not allow loading to proceed if any safety concerns are identified.

5.5.3. Loss or Deterioration in Product Quality

The operating and maintenance procedures in place will ensure that no loss and deterioration of product occurs due to incorrect operations. These procedures will provide mitigations and ensure that equipment will always be maintained to ensure normal operating conditions.
