Text

1. a. When on and after May 30, 2006, a franchise is entered into or renewed, the
franchisor shall provide for the delivery of volumes of E-85 gasoline at times demanded by
the franchisee or shall allow the franchisee to purchase those volumes of E-85 gasoline at
those times from another source.
b. If a franchise is in effect on May 30, 2006, and does not have an expiration date, the
franchisor shall provide for the delivery of volumes of E-85 gasoline at times demanded by
the franchisee or shall allow the franchisee to purchase those volumes of E-85 gasoline at
those times from another source.
2. If the franchisee sells E-85 gasoline delivered from a source other than the franchisor,
the franchisee shall prominently post a sign disclosing this fact to the public on each motor
fuel pump used for dispensing the E-85 gasoline. The size of the sign shall not be less than
eight inches by ten inches and the letters on the sign shall be at least three inches in height.
3. A franchisee who sells E-85 gasoline delivered from a source other than the franchisor
shall also fully indemnify the franchisor against any claims asserted by a user on which the
claimant prevails and in which the court determines that E-85 gasoline not acquired from the
franchisor was the proximate cause of the injury.
4. a. A purchase of E-85 gasoline in accordance with this section is not good cause for the
termination of a franchise.
b. A term of a franchise that is inconsistent with this section is void and unenforceable.
