<p style="background-color:#FFFFFF;font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;">On February 21, 2019,&nbsp;Gevo, Inc. (the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;) entered into a Renewable Isooctane Purchase and Sale Agreement (the &ldquo;Agreement&rdquo;) with HCS Holding GmbH (&ldquo;HCS&rdquo;), pursuant to which the Company agreed to supply renewable isooctane to HCS under a ten-year offtake agreement. HSC will initially purchase certain minimum quantities of renewable isooctane produced at a demonstration hydrocarbons plant operated by the Company in partnership with South Hampton Resources, Inc. located in Silsbee, Texas. The Company expects to sell HCS increasing amounts of minimum quantities of renewable isooctane each year upon the completion of two expansion projects to increase renewable isooctane production capabilities at the Company&rsquo;s biofuels production facility in Luverne, Minnesota. The first expansion project is referred to as the &ldquo;Interim Project&rdquo; and the second, larger expansion project is referred to as the &ldquo;Expansion Project.&rdquo; The Company will sell the renewable isooctane to HCS under the Agreement at certain fixed prices over the term of the Agreement.</p>

The Agreement also contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and confidentiality provisions, and also contains mutual indemnification obligations.&nbsp;</p>

Item 1.01.
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On February 21, 2019, Gevo, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Renewable Isooctane Purchase and Sale Agreement (the "Agreement") with HCS Holding GmbH ("HCS"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to supply renewable isooctane to HCS under a ten-year offtake agreement. HSC will initially purchase certain minimum quantities of renewable isooctane produced at a demonstration hydrocarbons plant operated by the Company in partnership with South Hampton Resources, Inc. located in Silsbee, Texas. The Company expects to sell HCS increasing amounts of minimum quantities of renewable isooctane each year upon the completion of two expansion projects to increase renewable isooctane production capabilities at the Company's biofuels production facility in Luverne, Minnesota. The first expansion project is referred to as the "Interim Project" and the second, larger expansion project is referred to as the "Expansion Project." The Company will sell the renewable isooctane to HCS under the Agreement at certain fixed prices over the term of the Agreement.
Subject to certain conditions, either party may terminate the Agreement if (i) the Interim Project is not completed within two years of execution of the Agreement (the "Execution Date"), (ii) the Company does not provide HCS with a notice to proceed with the Expansion Project within two years of the Execution Date, or (iii) the Expansion Project is not completed within five years of the Execution Date. The Agreement also contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and confidentiality provisions, and also contains mutual indemnification obligations.
The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of such Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.
