I. The Original Master Throughput Agreement has been further amended and restated, resulting in that certain Fifth Amended and Restated Master Throughput Agreement, effective July 1, 2019 (the “Previous Amended and Restated Master Throughput Agreement”).

J. The Parties now desire to amend and restate the Previous Amended and Restated Master Throughput Agreement in its entirety as follows to, among other things, add the Cushing Connect Pipeline, as defined below.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and obligations contained herein, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1

DEFINITIONS AND INTERPRETATIONS

1.1 Definitions. Capitalized terms used throughout this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth on Exhibit A.

1.2 Interpretation. Matters relating to the interpretation of this Agreement are set forth on Exhibit B.

ARTICLE 2

AGREEMENT TO USE SERVICES

2.1 Intent. The Parties intend to be strictly bound by the terms set forth in this Agreement, which sets forth revenues to HEP Operating to be paid by HFRM, and requires HEP Operating to provide certain transportation, storage and loading services to HFRM. The principal objective of HEP Operating is for HFRM to meet or exceed its obligations with respect to the Minimum Revenue Commitment. The principal objective of HFRM is for HEP Operating to provide services to HFRM in a manner that enables HFRM to transport, store and/or load Products on, in or at the Applicable Assets. It is the Parties’ further intent that the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be effective and govern from and after the Effective Time. Any matter first arising prior to the Effective Time shall be governed by the respective agreement relating thereto referenced in the Recitals.

2.2 Minimum Revenue Commitments. During the Applicable Term and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and as further set forth in Exhibit C, HFRM agrees as follows:

(a) Capacity and Revenue Commitment. Subject to Article 4, HFRM shall pay HEP Operating Applicable Tariffs for use of the Applicable Assets and associated services as provided herein that result in the payment of an amount that will satisfy the Minimum Revenue Commitment in exchange for HEP Operating providing HFRM a minimum capacity in each of the Applicable Assets equal to the Minimum Capacity Commitment. The “Minimum Revenue Commitment” shall be the aggregate sum of the revenue to HEP Operating for each Contract Quarter determined by multiplying the Minimum Throughput Commitment for each Applicable Asset for such Contract Quarter, by the Base Tariff for such Applicable Asset in effect for such Contract Quarter. The “Minimum Capacity Commitment” means the amount set forth on Exhibit C for each Applicable Asset.

 

2


(b) Applicable Tariffs. HFRM shall pay (i) the applicable Base Tariffs for all quantities of Product transported, stored or loaded at, on or through the Applicable Assets in each Contract Quarter during the Applicable Term up to and including the applicable Incentive Tariff Threshold for such Applicable Asset set forth on Exhibit C, (ii) the applicable Incentive Tariff for quantities in excess of the Incentive Tariff Threshold and, (iii) if applicable, the Excess Tariff for the Applicable Asset for quantities in excess of the Excess Tariff Threshold. HFRM shall pay the applicable fees for all quantities of Product transported, stored or loaded at, on or through the Refined Products Terminals in each Contract Quarter during the Applicable Term set forth on Exhibit N-2.

(c) Adjustment of Applicable Tariffs. The Applicable Tariffs shall be adjusted in the manner set forth on Exhibit C. To evidence the Parties’ agreement to each adjusted Applicable Tariff, the Parties may, but shall not be required to, execute an amended, modified, revised or updated Exhibit C and attach it to this Agreement. If executed, such amended, modified, revised or updated Exhibit C shall be sequentially numbered (e.g. Exhibit C-1, Exhibit C-2, etc.), dated and appended as an additional exhibit to this Agreement and shall replace the prior version of Exhibit C in its entirety, after its date of effectiveness. The applicable fees in respect of the Refined Products Terminals shall be adjusted as set forth on Exhibit N-2.

(d) Reduction for Non-Force Majeure Operational Difficulties. If HFRM is unable to transport, store and/or load on, in or at any Applicable Asset the volumes of Products required to meet the Minimum Revenue Commitment for such Applicable Asset for a particular Contract Quarter as a result of HEP Operating’s operational difficulties, prorationing, or the inability to provide sufficient capacity for the Minimum Throughput Commitment, then the Minimum Revenue Commitment applicable to the Contract Quarter during which HFRM is unable to transport, store and/or load such volumes of Products will be reduced by an amount equal to: (A) the volume of Products that HFRM was unable to transport, store and/or load on, in or at such Applicable Assets (but not to exceed the Minimum Throughput Commitment), as a result of HEP Operating’s operational difficulties, prorationing or inability to provide sufficient capacity on the Applicable Assets to achieve the Minimum Throughput Commitment, multiplied by (B) the applicable Base Tariff. This Section 2.2(d) shall not apply in the event HEP Operating gives notice of a Force Majeure event in accordance with the terms of the Omnibus Agreement, in which case the Minimum Revenue Commitment shall be suspended to the extent contemplated in Article IX of the Omnibus Agreement.

(e) Pro-Rationing for Partial Periods. Notwithstanding the other portions of this Section 2.2, in the event that the commencement date of the Applicable Term for any group of Applicable Assets is any date other than the first day of a Contract Quarter, then the Minimum Revenue Commitment, Minimum Throughput Commitment, and any applicable Incentive Tariffs for the initial partial Contract Quarter with respect to such group of Applicable Assets shall be prorated based upon the number of days actually in such partial Contract Quarter. Similarly, notwithstanding the other portions of this Section 2.2 if the last day of the Applicable Term for any group of Applicable Assets is on a day other than the last day of a Contract Quarter, then the Minimum Revenue Commitment, Minimum Throughput Commitment, and any applicable Incentive Tariff for the final partial Contract Quarter with respect to such group of Applicable Assets shall be prorated based upon the number of days actually in such partial Contract Quarter and the initial Contract Quarter.

2.3 Measurement of Shipped Volumes. Matters with respect to the measurement of shipped volumes are set forth on Exhibit D.

 

3


2.4 Volumetric Gains and Losses; Line Fill; High-API Oil Surcharge. Matters with respect to volumetric gains and losses, line fill and high-API oil surcharges are set forth on Exhibit E.

2.5 Obligations of HEP Operating. During the Applicable Term and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, HEP Operating agrees to:

(a) own or lease, operate and maintain (directly or through a Subsidiary) the Applicable Assets and all related assets necessary to handle the applicable Products from HFRM;

(b) make available for HFRM’s use the capacity of the Applicable Assets of at least the Minimum Capacity Commitment;

(c) provide the services required under this Agreement and perform all operations relating to the Applicable Assets, including tank gauging, tank maintenance, loading trucks, interaction with third party pipelines and customer interface for access agreements (as applicable) and performance of all operations and maintenance for the Applicable Assets;

(d) maintain adequate property and liability insurance covering the Applicable Assets and any related assets owned by HEP Operating or its affiliates and necessary for the operation of the Applicable Assets; and

(e) at the request of HFRM, and subject in any case to any applicable common carrier proration duties and commitments to other third-party shippers, use commercially reasonable efforts to transport, store and/or load on the Applicable Assets for HFRM each month during the Applicable Term the quantity of Products that HFRM designates from time to time, but in no event less than the Minimum Capacity Commitment.

Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 2.5, subject to the dispute resolution provisions of the Omnibus Agreement and with respect to the Tulsa Assets, the Tulsa Purchase Agreements, HEP Operating or its Affiliate is free to sell any of its assets, including any Applicable Assets, and HFRM is free to merge with another entity and to sell all of its assets or equity to another entity at any time.

2.6 Drag Reducing Agents and Additives. If HEP Operating determines that adding drag reducing agents (“DRA”) to the Products is reasonably required to move the Products in the quantities necessary to meet HFRM’s schedule or as may be otherwise be required to safely move such quantities of Products or that additives should be used in the operation of the Applicable Assets, HEP Operating shall provide HFRM with an analysis of the proposed cost and benefits thereof. In the event that HFRM agrees to use such additives as proposed by HEP Operating, HFRM shall reimburse HEP Operating for the costs of adding any DRA or additives. If HEP Operating reasonably determines that additives or chemicals must be added to any of the pipelines included in the Applicable Assets to prevent or control internal corrosion of the pipe, then HFRM shall reimburse HEP Operating for the direct cost of the chemical and associated injection equipment.

2.7 Change in the Direction; Product Service or Origination and Destination of the Pipeline System. Without HFRM’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), HEP Operating shall not (i) reverse the direction of flow of any Pipeline; (ii) change, alter or modify the Product service of any Pipeline; or (iii) change, alter or modify the origination or destination of any Pipeline; provided, however, that HEP Operating may take any necessary emergency action to prevent or remedy a release of Products from a Pipeline without obtaining the consent required by

 

4


this Section 2.7. HFRM shall have the right to reverse the direction of flow of any segment of a Pipeline where it is the sole shipper of Products if, in each case, HFRM agrees to (1) reimburse HEP Operating for the additional costs and expenses incurred by HEP Operating as a result of such change in direction (both to reverse and re-reverse); (2) reimburse HEP Operating for all costs arising out of HEP Operating’s inability to perform under any transportation service contract due to the reversal of the direction of flow of the Pipeline; and (3) pay the Applicable Tariffs in accordance with this Agreement, for any such flow reversal. With respect to the Malaga Pipeline System, the foregoing shall apply regardless of whether the Product shipped in such manner reaches an injection point for the Centurion Pipeline or Plains Pipeline. HEP Operating shall not acquire any right, title or interest in the Products, and all title to and ownership of the Products while the same is in the possession of HEP Operating shall be and shall remain exclusively in HFRM. HEP Operating shall not represent itself to any third party as the owner of any of the Products and shall hold the same in trust for HFRM. HFRM shall advise HEP Operating in writing of any change in Product ownership while in the Applicable Assets. If any of HFRM’s Product is sold, exchanged, or otherwise changes ownership while in the Applicable Assets, HFRM shall nonetheless be responsible for the terms and conditions of this Agreement the same as if Products had been owned by HFRM.

2.8 Notification of Utilization. Upon request by HEP Operating, HFRM will provide to HEP Operating written notification of HFRM’s reasonable good faith estimate of its anticipated future utilization of the Applicable Assets as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving such request.

2.9 Scheduling and Accepting Movement. HEP Operating will use its reasonable commercial efforts to schedule and accept movements of Products in a manner that is consistent with the historical dealings between the Parties and their Affiliates, as such dealings may change from time to time.

2.10 Taxes. HFRM will pay all taxes, import duties, license fees and other charges by any Governmental Authority levied on or with respect to the Products handled by HFRM for transportation, storage and/or loading by HEP Operating. Should either Party be required to pay or collect any taxes, duties, charges and or assessments pursuant to any Applicable Law or authority now in effect or hereafter to become effective which are payable by the any other Party pursuant to this Section 2.10 the proper Party shall promptly reimburse the other Party therefor.

2.11 Timing of Payments. HFRM will make payments to HEP Operating by electronic payment with immediately available funds on a monthly basis during the Applicable Term with respect to services rendered or reimbursable costs or expenses incurred by HEP Operating under this Agreement in the prior month. Payments not received by HEP Operating on or prior to the tenth day following the invoice date will accrue interest at the Prime Rate from the applicable payment date until paid.

2.12 Increases in Tariff Rates. If new Applicable Laws are enacted that require HEP Operating to make capital expenditures with respect to the Applicable Assets, HEP Operating may amend the Applicable Tariffs in the manner set forth in Exhibit F, in order to recover HEP Operating’s cost of complying with such new Applicable Laws (as determined in good faith and including a reasonable return). HFRM and HEP Operating shall use their reasonable commercial efforts to comply with such new Applicable Laws, and shall negotiate in good faith to mitigate the impact of such new Applicable Laws and to determine the amount of the new Applicable Tariff rates. If HFRM and HEP Operating are unable to agree on the amount of the new Applicable Tariff rates that HEP Operating will charge, such Applicable Tariff rates will be resolved in the manner provided for in the Omnibus Agreement. Any other applicable exhibit to this Agreement will be updated, amended or revised, as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement to reflect any changes in Applicable Tariff rates established in accordance with this Section 2.12.

 

5


2.13 Removal of Tank from Service. The Parties agree that if a tank included in the Applicable Assets is removed from service, then HEP Operating will not be required to utilize, operate or maintain such tank or provide the services required under this Agreement with respect to such tank (and there will be no adjustment to the applicable Minimum Revenue Commitment). The Parties acknowledge that provisions relating to the inspection, repair and maintenance of tanks included in the Applicable Assets are set forth in the Master Lease and Access Agreement, and such provisions are in addition to, and not in substitution of, the terms set forth in this Section 2.13.

2.14 No Guaranteed Minimum. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, there is no requirement that HFRM deliver any minimum quantity of Product for transport, storage, handling or loading on, over or in the Applicable Assets, it being understood that HFRM’s obligation for failing to ship, store or load sufficient quantities of Product to satisfy the Minimum Revenue Commitment is to make Deficiency Payments as provided in Article 10.

2.15 Ethanol Blending. For any Applicable Asset at which HEP Operating provides ethanol blending services to HFRM, HEP Operating agrees to allow HFRM or its representative to perform (i) periodic audits of the ethanol blending operation to assess whether the overall volumes of ethanol used by HEP Operating are consistent with HFRM’s ethanol blending specifications and that the ethanol was blended with HFRM’s gasoline or blend stock; and (ii) periodic sampling and testing of the gasoline produced subsequent to the ethanol blending and periodic inspections to ensure the contractual requirements between HEP Operating and HFRM are being met.

ARTICLE 3

AGREEMENT TO REMAIN SHIPPER

With respect to any Product that is transported, stored or loaded in connection with any of the Applicable Assets by HFRM, HFRM agrees that it will continue acting in the capacity of the shipper of any such Product for its own account at all times that such Product is being transported, stored, handled or loaded in the Applicable Assets.

ARTICLE 4

NOTIFICATION OF REFINERY SHUT-DOWN OR RECONFIGURATION

If a Refinery shuts down or the Refinery owner reconfigures the Refinery or any portion of the Refinery (excluding planned maintenance turnarounds) and HFRM reasonably believes in good faith that such shut down or reconfiguration will jeopardize its ability to satisfy its applicable Minimum Revenue Commitments under this Agreement, then within 90 days of the delivery of the written notice of the planned shut down or reconfiguration, HFRM shall (A) propose a new Minimum Revenue Commitment under this Agreement, as applicable, such that the ratio of the new applicable Minimum Revenue Commitment under this Agreement over the anticipated production level following the shut down or reconfiguration will be approximately equal to the ratio of the original applicable Minimum Revenue Commitment under this Agreement over the original production level and (B) propose the date on which the new Minimum Revenue Commitment under this Agreement shall take effect. Unless objected to by HEP Operating within 60 days of receipt by HEP Operating of such proposal, such new Minimum Revenue Commitment under this Agreement shall become effective as of the date proposed by HFRM. To the extent that HEP Operating does not agree with HFRM’s proposal, any changes in HFRM’s obligations under this Agreement, or the date on which such changes will take effect, will be determined pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions of the Omnibus Agreement. Any applicable exhibit to this Agreement will be updated, amended or revised, as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement to reflect any change in the applicable Minimum Revenue Commitment under this Agreement agreed to in accordance with this Section 4.1.

 

6


In addition, in the event of a partial shutdown or a reconfiguration of the Navajo Refinery, HFRM agrees to utilize the Refined Products Pipelines and the Navajo Refinery truck rack for 100% of the Navajo Refinery output for the duration of such partial shutdown or reconfiguration.

ARTICLE 5

FORCE MAJEURE

The rights and obligations of the Parties upon the occurrence of an event of Force Majeure will be determined in the manner set forth in the Omnibus Agreement; provided that (a) any suspension of the obligations of the Parties under this Agreement as a result of an event of Force Majeure shall extend the Applicable Term (to the extent so affected) for a period equivalent to the duration of the inability set forth in the Force Majeure Notice, (b) HFRM will be required to pay any amounts accrued and due under this Agreement at the time of the Force Majeure event, and (c) if a Force Majeure event prevents either Party from performing substantially all of their respective obligations under this Agreement relating to a group of Applicable Assets for a period of more than one (1) year, this Agreement may be terminated as to such Applicable Assets (but not as to unaffected Applicable Assets) by either Party providing written notice thereof to the other Party.

ARTICLE 6

AGREEMENT NOT TO CHALLENGE PIPELINE TARIFFS

HFRM agrees to any tariff rate changes for Pipelines in accordance with this Agreement. HFRM agrees (a) not to challenge, nor to cause their Affiliates to challenge, nor to encourage or recommend to any other Person that it challenge, or voluntarily assist in any way any other Person in challenging, in any forum, interstate or intrastate tariffs (including joint tariffs) of HEP Operating (or its Affiliates) that HEP Operating (or its Affiliate) has filed or may file containing rates, rules or regulations that are in effect at any time during the Applicable Term and regulate the transportation of the Products on any Pipelines, (b) not to protest or file a complaint, nor cause their Affiliates to protest or file a complaint, nor encourage or recommend to any other Person that it protest or file a complaint, or voluntarily assist in any way any other Person in protesting or filing a complaint, with respect to regulatory filings that HEP Operating or its Affiliate has made or may make at any time during the Applicable Term to change interstate or intrastate tariffs (including joint tariffs) for transportation of Products on any Pipelines, and (c) not to seek, nor cause any of its Affiliates to seek, nor encourage or recommend to any other Person that it seek, or voluntarily assist in any way any other Person in seeking, regulatory review of, or regulatory jurisdiction over, the contractual rates charged at any time during the term of this Agreement by HEP Operating for terminalling services or to challenge, in any forum, such rates or changes to such rates, in each case so long as such tariffs, regulatory filings or rates changed do not conflict with the terms of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 7

EFFECTIVENESS AND APPLICABLE TERM

This Agreement shall be effective as to each group of Applicable Assets as of the date and time set forth on Exhibit C (or, in the case of the Refined Products Terminals, Exhibit N-2) and shall terminate with respect to each group of Applicable Assets as of the date and time set forth on Exhibit C (or, in the case of

 

7


the Refined Products Terminals, Exhibit N-2), unless extended by written mutual agreement of the Parties or as set forth in Article 8 (each, the “Applicable Term”). The Party desiring to extend this Agreement with respect to any group of Applicable Assets pursuant to this Article 7 shall provide prior written notice to the other Party of its desire to so extend this Agreement; such written notice shall be provided not more than twenty-four (24) months and not less than the later of twelve (12) months prior to the date of termination of the Applicable Term or ten (10) days after receipt of a written request from the other Party (which request may be delivered no earlier than twelve (12) months prior to the date of termination of the Applicable Term) to provide any such notice or lose such right.

ARTICLE 8

RIGHT TO ENTER INTO A NEW AGREEMENT

8.1. Negotiation Pursuant to Written Notice. In the event that HFRM provides prior written notice to HEP Operating of the desire of HFRM to extend this Agreement for a specific group of Applicable Assets by written mutual agreement of the Parties pursuant to Article 7, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to extend this Agreement by written mutual agreement with respect to such specific group of Applicable Assets, but, if such negotiations fail to produce a written mutual agreement for extension by a date six months prior to the termination date for such group of Applicable Assets, then HEP Operating shall have the right to negotiate to enter into one or more throughput, tankage or transportation services agreements for HFRM’s Minimum Capacity Commitment for such Applicable Assets with one or more third parties to begin after the date of termination, provided, however, that until the end of one year following termination without renewal of this Agreement for such group of Applicable Assets, HFRM will have the right to enter into a new throughput, tankage or transportation services or transportation services agreement with HEP Operating with respect to its Minimum Capacity Commitment on the date of termination on commercial terms that substantially match the terms upon which HEP Operating proposes to enter into an agreement with a third party for similar services with respect to all or a material portion of such capacity of such group of Applicable Assets. In such circumstances, HEP Operating shall give HFRM at least forty-five (45) days prior written notice of any proposed new throughput agreement with a third party, and such notice shall inform HFRM of the fee schedules, tariffs, duration and any other material terms of the proposed third party agreement. HFRM shall have forty-five (45) days following receipt of such notice to agree to the terms specified in the notice or HFRM shall lose the rights specified by this Section 8.1 with respect to the capacity that is the subject of such notice.

As soon as practicable following the end of each Contract Quarter under this Agreement, HEP Operating shall deliver to HFRM a written notice (the “Deficiency Notice”) detailing any failure of HFRM to meet any of the Minimum Revenue Commitments set forth on Exhibit C; provided, however, that HFRM’s obligations pursuant to the Minimum Revenue Commitment shall be assessed on a quarterly basis for the purposes of this Article 10. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, any deficiency owed by HFRM due to its failure to satisfy any Minimum Revenue Commitment, if any, set forth on Exhibit C, as to any Applicable Asset for a Contract Quarter shall be offset by any revenue owed to HEP Operating in excess of any Minimum Revenue Commitment for such Contract Quarter set forth on Exhibit C from any other Applicable Asset at the same location.

HFRM shall pay the Deficiency Payment to HEP Operating upon the later of: (A) ten (10) days after their receipt of the Deficiency Notice and (B) thirty (30) days following the end of the related Contract Quarter.

10.2 Disputed Deficiency Notices. If HFRM disagrees with the Deficiency Notice, then, following the payment of the undisputed portion of the Deficiency Payment to HEP Operating, if any, HFRM shall send written notice thereof regarding the disputed portion of the Deficiency Payment to HEP Operating. Thereafter, a senior officer of HollyFrontier (on behalf of HFRM) and a senior officer of the Partnership (on behalf of HEP Operating) shall meet or communicate by telephone at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary and shall negotiate in good faith to attempt to resolve any differences that they may have with respect to matters specified in the Deficiency Notice. During the 30-day period following the payment of the Deficiency Payment, HFRM shall have access to the working papers of HEP Operating relating to the Deficiency Notice. If such differences are not resolved within thirty (30) days following HFRM’s receipt of the Deficiency Notice, HFRM and HEP Operating shall, within forty-five (45) days following HFRM’s receipt of the Deficiency Notice, submit any and all matters which remain in dispute and which were properly included in the Deficiency Notice to dispute resolution in accordance with the Omnibus Agreement.

10.3 Payment of Amounts No Longer Disputed.

10.4 Contract Quarters Independent. The fact that HFRM has exceeded or fallen short of the Minimum Revenue Commitment with respect to any Contract Quarter shall not be considered in determining whether HFRM meets, exceeds or falls short of the Minimum Revenue Commitment with respect to any other Contract Quarter, and the amount of any such excess or shortfall shall not be counted towards or against the Minimum Revenue Commitment with respect to any other Contract Quarter.

In the event that any third party transports Crude Oil on the Roadrunner Pipeline for ultimate delivery to HollyFrontier or any of its Subsidiaries and such third party pays throughput fees equal to or greater than the then-current base tariff for each such barrel of Crude Oil transported on the Roadrunner Pipeline for ultimate delivery to HollyFrontier or any of its Subsidiaries (“Qualified Third-Party Throughput”), then revenues paid to HEP Operating by such third party for such Qualified Third-Party Throughput shall be credited towards the Minimum Revenue Commitment hereunder for the Roadrunner Pipeline.

8 

If the average throughput for any Contract Quarter (including Qualified Third-Party Throughput) exceeds the Minimum Pipeline Throughput attributable to such Contract Quarter, then for each throughput barrel in excess of the Minimum Pipeline Throughput, HFRM shall pay HEP Operating throughput fees in the amount of the Pipeline Incentive Tariff.

9 

For the avoidance of doubt, if the change in PPI in any year is less than one percent (1%) it will be rounded up to one percent (1%) and if the change in PPI in any year is greater than three percent (3%) it will be rounded down to three percent (3%).

Exhibit C-9


Applicable Tariff Adjustments

FERC Adjustment:

Each Applicable Tariff shall be adjusted on July 1 of each index year during the Applicable Term by an amount equal to the percentage change, if any, between the two (2) immediately preceding index years, in the Federal Energy Regulation Commission Oil Pipeline Index (the “FERC Oil Pipeline Index”); provided, however, that if the percentage change, if any, between the two (2) immediately preceding index years in the FERC Oil Pipeline Index is negative, then there will be no change to the Applicable Tariffs.

PPI Adjustment:

Each Applicable Tariff shall be adjusted on July 1 of each calendar year by an amount equal to the upper change in the annual change rounded to four decimal places of the Producers Price Index-Commodities-Finished Goods, (PPI), et al. (“PPI”), produced by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureaus of Labor Statistics. The series ID is WPUFD49207 as of June 1, 2016 – located at http://www.bls.gov/data/. The change factor shall be calculated as follows: annual PPI index (most current year) less annual PPI index (most current year minus 1) divided by annual PPI index (most current year minus 1). An example for year 2014 change is: [PPI (2013) – PPI (2012)] / PPI (2012) or (197.3 – 193.3) / 193.3 or .021 or 2.1%. If the PPI index change is negative in a given year then there will be no change in the tariff unless the tariff is subject to a minimum increase as defined elsewhere in Exhibit C.

Index no longer Published

If the either index is no longer published, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to agree on a new index (as applicable) that gives comparable protection against inflation or deflation, and the same method of adjustment for increases or decreases in the new index shall be used to calculate increases or decreases in the tariffs. If the Parties are unable to agree, a new index will be determined in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions set forth in the Omnibus Agreement, and the same method of adjustment for increases or decreases in the new index shall be used to calculate increases or decreases in the tariffs.

Measurement of Volumes

Malaga Pipeline System    Pipelines   

Quantities shipped on the Malaga Pipeline System shall be determined by measuring unique barrels of Crude Oil (either by counting barrels or calculating barrels based on available meter data) shipped on the following origin and destination pairings:

 

Whites City Road Station to HEP Artesia Station

Whites City Road Station to Beeson Station

Whites City Road Station to Plains Pipeline Bisti Connection

HEP Artesia Station to Beeson Station

HEP Artesia Station to Plains Pipeline Bisti Connection

Beeson Station to Plains Pipeline Bisti Connection

 

The origin and destination pairings listed above utilize the following segments of the Pipeline System:

 

Whites City Road Station to HEP Artesia Station (8-inch)

HEP Artesia Station to Beeson Station (8-inch)

Beeson Station to Plains Pipeline Bisti Connection (12-inch)

 

Shipments on any other segments of the Malaga Pipeline System will be charged the then-current tariff and fees under the Crude Agreement.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, a barrel shipped on multiple segments of the Malaga Pipeline System shall only be counted as one barrel in satisfaction of the Minimum Throughput Commitment and shall not count as a separate barrel on each such segment. For example, a barrel shipped from Whites City Road Station to the Plains Pipeline Bisti Connection shall count as one barrel in satisfaction of the Minimum Throughput Commitment, and not as three barrels since it flows on three segments of the Malaga Pipeline System.

El Dorado Assets    Pipelines    Pipeline delivery throughput shall be determined by the shipments of Products by pipeline (and not over the Loading Racks) from the El Dorado Refinery.
   Tankage    Tankage throughput shall be determined by the sum of Products shipped from the El Dorado Refinery but not including shipments of coke and sulfur. For the avoidance of doubt, no Tankage throughput fees shall be paid for movements of Products within the El Dorado Refinery.
   Loading Rack    The Loading Rack Tariff will be paid for all quantities of Products or other materials loaded at the Loading Racks or the asphalt loading rack and any Products or other materials shipped using the weight scales.
Cheyenne Assets    Cheyenne Receiving Assets    Crude Oil throughput shall be determined by the total shipments of Crude Oil by pipeline, truck and rail received at the Cheyenne Refinery.
   Cheyenne Tankage    Tankage throughput shall be determined by the sum of Products shipped by the Refinery but not including shipments of coke and sulfur. For the avoidance of doubt, no Tankage throughput fees shall be paid for movements of Products within the Cheyenne Refinery.

Special Provisions: Malaga Pipeline System

1. Construction Projects. HEP Operating has (i) completed the construction projects set forth on Exhibit G-1 and (ii) built the 25 lease connections listed on Exhibit G-2 (the “Devon Lease Connections” and, together with the construction projects set forth on Exhibit G-1, the “Malaga Construction Projects”). With respect to Item 4 listed on Exhibit G-1, HFRM reimbursed HEP Operating 100% of the actual costs and expenses of those Malaga Construction Projects. HEP Operating bore the costs of constructing all of the other Malaga Construction Projects listed on Exhibit G-1 and Exhibit G-2, other than Item 4 on Exhibit G-2.

2. Option to Increase Minimum Capacity Commitment Following the Malaga Initial Period. At the end of the Malaga Initial Period and once-a-year thereafter during the Applicable Term, HFRM shall have the option to increase (but not decrease) the Minimum Capacity Commitment for the Malaga Pipeline System applicable to the remainder of the Applicable Term, which option may be exercised as follows:

2.1 Malaga Capacity Estimate. HFRM may initiate the process by which it will exercise its option by delivering to HEP Operating a written request for a statement of HEP Operating’s good faith estimate of the total uncommitted pipeline capacity for the Malaga Pipeline System that will be available for the remaining Applicable Term (a “Malaga Capacity Estimate”), which request must be made, (i) in the case of the election available at the end of the Malaga Initial Applicable Period, no later than the one hundred twentieth (120th) day before the end of the Malaga Initial Period, and (ii) in the case of the election available at the end of each twelve (12) month period following the end of the Malaga Initial Period (each a “Subsequent Year”), the one-hundred twentieth (120) day before the end of such Subsequent Year.

2.2 Response to Request for Malaga Capacity Estimate. HEP Operating must respond to each request with a written Malaga Capacity Estimate within ten (10) days of HEP Operating’s receipt of such request.

2.3 Malaga Exercise Notice. To exercise its option, HFRM must provide HEP Operating a written notice of exercise (an “Malaga Exercise Notice”) no later than ninety (90) days prior to the end of the Malaga Initial Period or Subsequent Year (as applicable), which Malaga Exercise Notice must contain the amount (stated in bpd) by which HFRM desires to increase the Minimum Capacity Commitment for the Malaga Pipeline System for the next occurring Subsequent Year and the remainder of the Applicable Term. The amount of increase for which HFRM may exercise this option may not exceed the available uncommitted pipeline capacity for the Malaga Pipeline System as stated in the Malaga Capacity Estimate. If no written Malaga Exercise Notice is received by such ninetieth (90th) day, then HFRM will be deemed to have waived its option, though such waiver shall not preclude HFRM from exercising its option in Subsequent Years according the process set forth in this Section 2.

 

Exhibit G-1


2.4 Increase in Minimum Capacity Commitment and Minimum Throughput Commitment. If HFRM timely exercises its option at the end of the Malaga Initial Period or a Subsequent Year in accordance with this Section 2, then, with respect to the next Subsequent Year and the remainder of the Applicable Term thereafter:

(a) the Minimum Capacity Commitment for the Malaga Pipeline System shall be increased by the amount specified in the Malaga Exercise Notice; and

(b) the Minimum Throughput Commitment shall be increased by an amount equal to the increase in the Minimum Capacity Commitment for the Malaga Pipeline System.

For example, if HFRM exercises its option at the end of the Malaga Initial Period to increase the Minimum Capacity Commitment for the Malaga Pipeline System from 40,000 bpd to 50,000 bpd (a 25% increase), then the Minimum Throughput Commitment shall be increased to equal 50,000 bpd (a 25% increase). This will have the effect of increasing the Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment by the operation of Section 2.2(a) of the Agreement.

3. Third Party Shipping. During the Malaga Initial Period, HFRM shall have the exclusive right to utilize the entire capacity of the Malaga Pipeline System. After the end of the Malaga Initial Period, if HEP Operating contracts with third parties to ship Crude Oil on the Malaga Pipeline System thereafter during the Applicable Term, subject to the terms of this Agreement, then HEP Operating may not charge any such third party transportation services fees, throughput fees, or other fees that are equal to or less on a per barrel basis (taking into account all applicable incentive tariffs and surcharges) than those charged to HFRM under this Agreement unless such third party agrees to minimum volume and revenue commitments equal to or in excess of those to which HFRM is subject hereunder. In the event that a third party with whom HEP has contracted agrees to minimum volume and revenue commitments that are equal to those to which HFRM is subject hereunder, and the transportation services fees, throughput fees, or other fees are less on a per barrel basis (taking into account all applicable incentive tariffs and surcharges) than those charged to HFRM under this Agreement, then the tariff rates charged to HFRM under this Agreement shall be automatically reduced to be equal to such third party tariff rates.

4. Storage. In addition, following the Malaga Commencement Date, HEP Operating agrees, for no additional fees, to provide storage services of up to 70,000 barrels with regard to Crude Oil shipped using the Malaga Pipeline System (30,000 barrels at the Whites City Road Station and 40,000 barrels at the Beeson Station) and provide limited in-tank Crude Oil blending services when operationally feasible at the HEP Operating Artesia Station to the specifications of HFRM, as such specifications may be adjusted from time to time.

5. Additional Applicable Tariff. The Parties hereby acknowledge that the Applicable Tariffs are in addition to tariffs applicable to volumes shipped on the Devon Lease Connections pursuant to the Crude Agreement.

Special Provisions: El Dorado Crude Tank Farm Assets

 

1.

El Dorado Terminal Operation. HEP Operating will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the El Dorado Terminal’s current connections to the pipelines owned and operated by (a) Tallgrass Energy Partners, LP (the “Pony Express Pipeline”), (b) Osage Pipe Line Company, LLC (the “Osage Pipeline”), (c) Rose Rock Midstream, L.P. (the “Rose Rock Pipeline”), and (d) MV Purchasing, LLC (the “MVP Pipeline”), but shall not be required to expend additional monies in connection therewith unless agreed separately in writing with HFRM. HFRM may request HEP Operating to connect the El Dorado Crude Tankage to new pipelines, whether owned by third parties or by HFRM, subject to HEP Operating’s approval of such connections and the engineering standards related to such; HEP Operating will not unreasonably withhold such approval. If HEP Operating approves any new connection requested by HFRM, HFRM will reimburse HEP Operating the actual expenses incurred by HEP Operating that are associated with such connection, plus an administrative charge of fifteen percent (15%). In addition, the Minimum Throughput Commitment will be increased to account for any additional expense HEP Operating bears in connection with ongoing operating expenses associated with such requested pipeline connection. Any HEP Operating expenditures requested by HFRM beyond pipeline connections will be negotiated separately.

 

2.

Tank Use. HEP Operating shall make available to HFRM on an exclusive basis the shell capacity, minimum and maximum capacities, and working capacity for the El Dorado Crude Tankage. HEP Operating will make at least two (2) of such tanks available for blending services at all times during the Applicable Term. HEP Operating and HFRM will work together to assign minimum and maximum capacities of each tank within sixty (60) days following the commencement of the Applicable Term. These minimum and maximum capacities will be set to allow the most working capacity available to HFRM within reasonable industry practices. The minimum and maximum capacity for each tank will be used to determine the working capacity of each tank (calculated by subtracting the minimum capacity from the maximum capacity for each Tank) (the “Working Capacity”). Once the Working Capacity is agreed upon, HEP may assign, in its sole discretion, new maximum and minimum capacities to each tank if required to allow for safe operation. If HEP determines it is necessary to reduce the aggregate Working Capacity to less than 650,000 Barrels (as such volume may be adjusted pursuant to Section 4 of this Exhibit K (the “El Dorado Minimum Working Capacity”), the Minimum Throughput Commitment will be reduced proportionately. HFRM may deliver or have delivered Product into the El Dorado Crude Tankage from the El Dorado Refinery, the Pony Express Pipeline, the Osage Pipeline the Rose Rock Pipeline or the MVP Pipeline. HFRM agrees not to deliver to the Terminal any Products which fail to meet the El Dorado Quality Specifications, or which would in any way be injurious to the El Dorado Crude Tankage, or that may not lawfully be handled in the Tankage. HFRM shall be responsible for and pay for all damages resulting from handling of any Products by HFRM, its designee, or its consignee; provided, however, so long as the Products meet the El Dorado Quality Specifications, HFRM shall not be responsible for damages arising from the negligence or willful misconduct of HEP, its agents, employees or contractors or from ordinary wear and tear.

 

Exhibit K-1


3.

Terminal Maintenance, Changes, or Installations. HEP Operating shall make the El Dorado Crude Tankage available for HFRM’s exclusive use except for times at which a tank must be taken out of service for routine maintenance, in which event HEP Operating will use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the duration of the outage. HEP Operating may take more than one tank out of service due to unplanned maintenance, environmental, or operational occurrences and may schedule more than one tank out of service if the duration is minimal (i.e. less than 1 week for seal inspection or mixer repair on top of an API 653 of another tank), but HEP Operating will not schedule more than one tank out of service for extended overlapping periods (e.g., two API 653s at the same time overlapping 1+ weeks). HEP Operating will provide HFRM written notice at least forty-five (45) days prior to any scheduled maintenance, changes or installations affecting the El Dorado Crude Tankage. In the event HEP Operating cannot provide any or all of the services during any maintenance, changes or installations within the El Dorado Terminal, or if such maintenance, changes or installations causes HEP Operating to take any tank out of service and HEP Operating does not provide a substitute tank in the place of such tank, the Minimum Throughput Commitment shall be reduced by the Working Capacity of such out-of-service tank for the duration of such outage.

 

4.

Right of First Refusal. HEP Operating may not lease or pledge or commit to provide any storage services with respect to the El Dorado Crude Tankage or the Jayhawk Tankage (after the expiration of the Jayhawk Lease) at the El Dorado Terminal to a third party unless HEP Operating first offers to HFRM the exclusive right to use the Working Capacity of such tanks on substantially the same terms as HEP Operating has previously negotiated with a third party in arms-length negotiations. HFRM will have thirty (30) days (the “El Dorado Crude Tank Farm Consideration Period”) to consider the option to utilize such Working Capacity and to provide notice to HEP Operating of its election to accept or decline such Working Capacity. If HFRM has not notified HEP Operating within 30 days, then HEP Operating may proceed to enter into an agreement with the third party for such Working Capacity; provided, however, that if HEP Operating does not enter into an agreement with the third party within sixty (60) days following HFRM’s notice to decline or the expiration of the El Dorado Crude Tank Farm Consideration Period, then HFRM’s rights under this Section 4 will apply to any subsequent bona fide third party offer to HEP Operating regarding such Working Capacity.

 

5.

Jayhawk Tankage. In the event that the Jayhawk Lease expires or is otherwise terminated or cancelled for any reason and the Jayhawk Tankage are not leased within a reasonable time (not to exceed sixty 60) days) to a third party as contemplated by Section 4 of this Exhibit K, HEP Operating agrees to make the Working Capacity of the Jayhawk Tankage available for HFRM’s exclusive use, and HFRM agrees to increase the Minimum Throughput Commitment by an amount equal to (a) the monthly storage fee that Jayhawk paid to HEP Operating during the last 12 months of the Jayhawk Lease, divided by the Working Capacity of the Jayhawk Tankage, and the El Dorado Minimum Working Capacity shall be increased by an amount equal to two-thirds (2/3) of the Working Capacity of such Jayhawk Tankage. HFRM’s use of the Jayhawk Tankage will be added to this Agreement as an amendment with all terms and conditions being consistent with this Agreement, and thereafter the term “El Dorado Crude Tankage” as used herein shall include the Jayhawk Tankage.

 

6.

Right to Refuse. HEP Operating reserves the right to refuse receipt of any Product into the El Dorado Terminal, alternatively route such Product to another location, or take other appropriate action in regards to such Product if Product does not meet the El Dorado Quality Specifications. HFRM, if requested in writing, will provide HEP Operating with notice setting forth the quantity, quality, and specifications of Product to be delivered a minimum of four (4) hours prior to any delivery to the El Dorado Terminal. Any reasonable costs incurred by HEP Operating in connection with addressing or handling HFRM’s Product that does not meet the El Dorado Quality Specifications shall be borne by HFRM.

 

Exhibit K-2


7.

Terminal Damage or Destruction. If any part of the El Dorado Terminal or the El Dorado Crude Tankage are damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, HEP Operating shall have the discretion to reduce receipts into and deliveries out of the El Dorado Terminal and to allocate any remaining El Dorado Terminal capacity and throughput fairly and reasonably among various customers utilizing terminalling services at the El Dorado Terminal. HEP Operating may, but shall not be obligated to, repair or replace such damaged or destroyed terminal facilities or Tanks.

 

8.

Delivery Lines. The El Dorado Crude Tankage is connected to the El Dorado Refinery by two 16” delivery lines, together with associated piping necessary for Product movements into and out of the El Dorado Crude Tankage (the “El Dorado Delivery Lines”). HEP Operating will operate the El Dorado Delivery Lines for HFRM’s exclusive use. HEP Operating will operate one of the 16” El Dorado Delivery Lines for Product movements from the El Dorado Crude Tankage to the El Dorado Refinery with a capacity to deliver (a) 130,000 bpd based on a maximum viscosity of 350 SUS at 60 degrees Fahrenheit when operating only one El Dorado Delivery Line, and (b) 165,000 bpd based on a maximum viscosity of 350 SUS at 60 degrees Fahrenheit when operating both El Dorado Delivery Lines. HEP Operating will operate the other 16” El Dorado Delivery Line for bidirectional use. HEP Operating will maintain the El Dorado Delivery Lines to gravity feed Product to the El Dorado Refinery or, upon request of HFRM, to pump Product to the El Dorado Refinery at a pressure of at least 25 psig (when operating one El Dorado Delivery Line) and 50 psig (when operating both El Dorado Delivery Lines), as measured at the El Dorado Refinery receipt point. HEP Operating will maintain at least two (2) full-sized pumps for this service and will operate the pumps at HFRM’s request.

 

9.

Products Testing. At HFRM’s request and upon HEP Operating’s approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, HEP Operating shall provide sampling and testing services for HFRM’s Products at the El Dorado Terminal. All fees for Product testing shall be billed to HFRM at HEP Operating’s actual cost.

Fee

Truck Rack Delivery    $0.3500 per barrel
Handling Fees for Products Provided by Shipper (Ethanol, Biodiesel, Isobutane, etc)    $0.08 per blended barrel
Gasoline and Diesel Additives (lubricity, red dye, generic and proprietary gasoline additives, etc.)    $0.08 per additized barrel + Cost of Additive per additized barrel

For the avoidance of doubt, the Amended and Restated Unloading and Blending Services Agreement, which governs the ethanol and biodiesel blending services performed at the refined product truck rack by HEP Operating in Artesia, shall remain in full force and effect.

The fees shall be adjusted on July 1 of each calendar year by an amount equal to the upper change in the annual change rounded to four decimal places of the Producers Price Index-Commodities-Finished Goods, (PPI), et al. (“PPI”), produced by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureaus of Labor Statistics. The series ID is WPUFD49207 as of June 1, 2016 – located at http://www.bls.gov/data/. The change factor shall be calculated as follows: annual PPI index (most current year) less annual PPI index (most current year minus 1) divided by annual PPI index (most current year minus 1). An example for year 2014 change is: [PPI (2013) – PPI (2012)] / PPI (2012) or (197.3 – 193.3) / 193.3 or .021 or 2.1%. If the PPI index change is negative in a given year then there will be no change in the fees.

3. Applicable Term. The Applicable Term with respect to the Refined Products Terminals shall commence at 12:01 a.m. on July 1, 2019 and end at 12:01 a.m. on July 1, 2029.

AGREEMENT:

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants, conditions and agreements set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

DEFINITIONS AND INTERPRETATIONS

1.1 Definitions. Capitalized terms used throughout this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth on Exhibit B.

1.2 Interpretation. Matters relating to the interpretation of this Agreement are set forth on Exhibit C.

ARTICLE II

BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES

2.1 Restricted Businesses. For so long as a HFC Group Member owns a controlling interest in the general partner of HEP, and except as permitted by Section 2.2, Holly GP and each HFC Group Member shall be prohibited from engaging in or acquiring a controlling interest in or operating any business having assets or operations engaged in the Restricted Businesses.

2.2 Permitted Exceptions. Notwithstanding any provision of Section 2.1 to the contrary, Holly GP and the HFC Group Members may engage in the following activities under the following circumstances:

 

  (a)

the ownership and/or operation of any of the Retained Assets (including replacements of the Retained Assets);

 

  (b)

any Restricted Businesses conducted by a HFC Group Member and Holly GP with the approval of the General Partner;

 

  (c)

the ownership and/or operation of Restricted Businesses by an HFC Entity or Holly GP in its capacity as general partner of HEP or its general partner;

 

  (d)

the ownership and/or operation of any asset or group of related assets used in the Restricted Business that are acquired or constructed by a HFC Group Member or Holly GP after the Closing Date (the “Permitted Assets”), the fair market value of which (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of HFC) is as follows:

 

  (i)

less than $5 million at the time of such acquisition or good faith estimate of construction costs, as the case may be; or

 

  (ii)

equal to or greater than $5 million at the time of the acquisition or good faith estimate of construction costs; provided, HEP has been offered the opportunity to purchase the Permitted Assets in accordance with Section 2.3 and HEP has elected not to purchase the Permitted Assets;

 

  (e)

the ownership of the UNEV Profits Interest;

 

  (f)

the ownership of limited or any general partnership interests in HEP; and

 

  (g)

the ownership and/or operation of the El Paso Hawkins Terminal.

 

3


2.3 Right of Offer.

 

  (a)

If Holly GP or a HFC Group Member becomes aware of an opportunity to acquire Permitted Assets with a fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of HFC) equal to or greater than $5 million, then, subject to Section 2.3(c), as soon as practicable, Holly GP or such HFC Group Member shall notify HEP of such opportunity and deliver to HEP, or provide HEP access to all information prepared by or on behalf of, or material information submitted or delivered to, Holly GP or such HFC Group Member relating to such potential transaction. As soon as practicable, but in any event within 30 days after receipt of such notification and information, HEP shall notify Holly GP or the HFC Group Member that it has either elected:

 

  (i)

not to cause a HEP Group Member to pursue the opportunity to purchase the Permitted Assets, or

 

  (ii)

to cause a HEP Group Member to pursue the opportunity to purchase the Permitted Assets, in which case the applicable Parties shall follow the procedures in Section 2.4.

 

  (b)

If, at any time, HEP abandons such opportunity (as evidenced in writing by HEP to the HFC Group Member), Holly GP or the HFC Group Member may pursue such opportunity. Any Permitted Assets which are permitted to be acquired by Holly GP or a HFC Group Member must be so acquired:

 

  (i)

within 12 months of the later to occur of the date that Holly GP or the HFC Group Member becomes able to pursue such acquisition in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.3, and (b) the date upon which all required governmental approvals to consummate such acquisition have been obtained, and

 

  (ii)

on terms not materially more favorable to Holly GP or the HFC Group Member than were offered to HEP.

If either of these conditions are not satisfied, the opportunity must be reoffered to HEP in accordance with Section 2.3(a).

 

  (c)

Section 2.3(a) shall not apply if Holly GP or a HFC Group Member:

 

  (i)

becomes aware of an opportunity to make an acquisition that includes Permitted Assets and assets that are not Permitted Assets, and the Permitted Assets have a fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of HFC) equal to or greater than $5 million but comprise less than half of the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of HFC) of the total assets being considered for acquisition, or

 

  (ii)

desires to construct Permitted Assets with an estimated construction cost (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of HFC) equal to or greater than $5 million;

 

4


provided, however, that in each case Holly GP or a HFC Group Member, as the case may be, shall comply with Section 2.4.

2.4 Procedure for Offering Acquired or Constructed Assets to HEP.

 

  (a)

Within 180 days after the consummation of the acquisition or the completion of construction by Holly GP or a HFC Group Member of the Permitted Assets, as the case may be, Holly GP or the HFC Group Member shall notify HEP in writing of such acquisition or construction and offer HEP the opportunity to purchase such Permitted Assets (the “Offer”). The Offer shall set forth the terms relating to the purchase of the Permitted Assets, and, if Holly GP or any HFC Group Member desires to utilize the Permitted Assets, the Offer will also include (i) the commercially reasonable terms on which the HEP Group will provide services to Holly GP or the HFC Group Member to enable Holly GP or the HFC Group Member to utilize the Permitted Assets and (ii) the terms of any service agreements, leases or access agreements to be provided to HEP by Holly GP or the HFC Group relating to such assets. As soon as practicable, but in any event within 30 days after receipt of such written notification, HEP shall notify Holly GP or the HFC Group Member in writing that HEP has elected (i) not to cause a HEP Group Member to purchase the Permitted Assets, in which event Holly GP or the HFC Group Member shall be forever free to continue to own or operate such Permitted Assets, or (ii) to cause a HEP Group Member to purchase the Permitted Assets, in which event Section 2.4(b) and Section 2.4(c) shall apply.

 

  (b)

If within 60 days after receipt by HEP of the Offer, Holly GP or the HFC Group Member and HEP are able to agree on the fair market value of the subject Permitted Assets and the other terms of the Offer including, the terms, if any, on which the HEP Group will provide services to Holly GP or the HFC Group Member to enable it to utilize the Permitted Assets, a HEP Group Member shall purchase the Permitted Assets for the agreed upon fair market value as soon as commercially practicable after such agreement has been reached and, if required by the Offer or otherwise agreed, enter into an agreement with Holly GP or the HFC Group Member to provide services in a manner consistent with the Offer.

 

  (c)

If Holly GP or the HFC Group Member and HEP are unable to agree within 60 days after receipt by HEP of the Offer on the fair market value of the subject Permitted Assets and/or the other terms of the Offer, Holly GP or the HFC Entity, on the one hand, and HEP, on the other hand, will engage a mutually agreed upon investment banking firm to determine the disputed terms. Such investment banking firm will determine the disputed terms within 30 days of its engagement and furnish Holly GP or the HFC Group Member, on the one hand, and HEP, on the other hand, its determination. The fees of the investment banking firm will be split equally between Holly GP or the HFC Group Member, on the one hand, and HEP, on the other hand. Once the investment banking firm has submitted its determination of the disputed terms, HEP will have the right, but not the obligation, to cause a HEP Group Member to purchase the Permitted Assets pursuant to the Offer as modified by the determination of the investment banking firm. HEP will provide written notice of its decision to Holly GP or the HFC Group Member within 30 days after the investment banking firm has submitted its determination. Failure to provide such notice within such 30-day period shall be deemed to constitute a decision not to purchase the Permitted Assets. If HEP elects to cause

 

5


  a HEP Group Member to purchase the Permitted Assets, then the HEP Group Member shall purchase the Permitted Assets pursuant to the Offer as modified by the determination of the investment banking firm as soon as commercially practicable after such determination and, if applicable, enter into an agreement with Holly GP or the HFC Group Member to provide services in a manner consistent with the Offer, as modified by the determination of the investment banking firm, if applicable.

2.5 Scope of Prohibition. Except as provided in this Article II and the Partnership Agreement, Holly GP and each HFC Group Member shall be free to engage in any business activity, including those that may be in direct competition with any HEP Group Member.

2.6 Enforcement. Holly GP and the HFC Group Members agree and acknowledge that the HEP Group does not have an adequate remedy at law for the breach by Holly GP and the HFC Group of the covenants and agreements set forth in this Article II, and that any breach by Holly GP and the HFC Group of the covenants and agreements set forth in this Article II would result in irreparable injury to the HEP Group. Holly GP and the HFC Group Members further agree and acknowledge that any HEP Group Member may, in addition to the other remedies that may be available to the HEP Group, file a suit in equity to enjoin Holly GP and the HFC Group from such breach and hereby consent to the issuance of injunctive relief under this Agreement.

2.7 Limitation on Acquisitions of Permitted Assets by HEP Group Members. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, a HEP Group Member who is not a party to this Agreement is prohibited from acquiring Permitted Assets. In the event HEP desires a HEP Group Member who is not a party to this Agreement to acquire any Permitted Assets, then the General Partner shall first cause such HEP Group Member to become a party to this Agreement.

2.8 Termination of Article II. The provisions of this Article II may be terminated by HFC upon a Change of Control of HFC.

  expense, hire and pay for counsel in connection with any such defense. The Indemnifying Party agrees to keep any such counsel hired by the Indemnified Party informed as to the status of any such defense, but the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to retain sole control over such defense.

 

  (e)

In connection with the indemnities in this Article III, Indemnifying Party:

 

  (i)

agrees to use reasonable efforts to minimize the impact thereof on the operations of the Indemnified Party;

 

  (ii)

agrees to enter into a joint defense agreement with Indemnifying Party in order to allow communication by counsel if Indemnified Party elects to involve separate counsel; and

 

  (iii)

agrees to maintain the confidentiality of all files, records, and other information furnished by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 3.7.

 

  (f)

The amounts for which an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Article III shall be reduced by the net amounts recovered by the Indemnified Party pursuant to contractual indemnities from any Third Party (other than pursuant to insurance policies that are not required to include a waiver of subrogation pursuant to Section 3.9) after deducting the reasonable unreimbursed out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in recovering such amounts (the “Net Recovery”). If the Indemnified Party receives a Net Recovery subsequent to an indemnification payment by the Indemnifying Party under this Article III, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any payment made or expense incurred by such Indemnifying Party in connection with providing such indemnification payment up to Net Recovery. An Indemnified Party shall be obligated to pursue all contractual indemnities (including insurance claims) that such Indemnified Party has with any Third Party, provided, however, if the Indemnified Party’s right to such indemnification is assignable, the Indemnified Party may, in its sole discretion and in lieu of pursuing such claim, elect to assign such indemnification claim to the Indemnifying Party to pursue and shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party (including, making its relevant books, records, officers, information and testimony reasonably available to the Indemnifying Party) in the Indemnifying Party’s pursuit of such claim.

 

  (g)

For avoidance of doubt, no Claim may be asserted pursuant to Section 3.2 or Section 3.4 following the applicable expiration of the indemnity related to such Claim; provided that any Claim asserted in writing prior to the expiration date of such indemnity that is the basis for such Claim shall survive until such Claim is finally resolved and satisfied. The date on which notification of a Claim for indemnification is received by the Indemnifying Party shall determine whether such Claim is timely made.

 

11


3.8 Limitation on Indemnification Obligations.

 

  (a)

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, when referring to the indemnification obligations of the HFC Entities in Article III, the definition of HFC Entities shall be deemed to mean solely (i) the HFC Entity or HFC Entities that own or operate, or owned or operated immediately prior to the transfer to the HEP Entities, the Retained Asset, Transferred Asset or other property in question with respect to which indemnification is sought by reason of such HFC Entity’s or HFC Entities’ ownership or operation of the Retained Asset, Transferred Asset or other property in question or that is responsible for causing such loss, damage, injury, judgment, claim, cost, expense or other liability suffered or incurred by the HEP Entities for which it is entitled to indemnification under Article III and (ii) HFC.

 

  (b)

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, when referring to the indemnification obligations of the HEP Entities in Article III, the definition of HEP Entities shall be deemed to mean solely (i) the HEP Entity or HEP Entities that own or operate, or previously owned or operated, the Transferred Asset or other property in question or that is responsible for causing such loss, damage, injury, judgment, claim, cost, expense or other liability suffered or incurred by the HFC Entities for which they are entitled to indemnification under Article III, (ii) HEP and Operating Partnership.

 

  (c)

For the avoidance of doubt, any indemnification obligations of the HFC Entities in Article III with respect to any indemnifiable losses incurred by or attributable to the UNEV Pipeline shall be (i) limited to an amount that is the product of (x) the amount of such losses, multiplied by (y) HEP UNEV’s direct or indirect percentage ownership interest in the UNEV Pipeline at the time such losses were incurred and (ii) payable to, for the benefit of and recoverable solely by HEP UNEV or any HEP Entity designated by HEP UNEV (and not by UNEV Pipeline, LLC).

3.9 Subrogation; Waiver of Subrogation. To the extent that any of the HFC Entities or HEP Entities in fact receive full indemnification payments pursuant to Section 3.2(a)(viii) or Section 3.4(a)(iii) hereof, as the case may be, the HFC Entity or HEP Entity paying such Claim shall be subrogated to the receiving party’s rights with respect to the transaction or event requiring or giving rise to such indemnity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the HFC Entities and the HEP Entities, hereby waives and releases, and shall cause their respective insurers, to waive and release, all rights against each other and any of their respective contractors, subsidiaries, consultants, agents and employees for loss or damages to any of the Transferred Assets to the extent of fire and other hazards covered by property insurance applicable to the property to which such loss or damage occurs, except such rights as they have to proceeds of such insurance. For the purposes of this Section 3.9, all deductibles shall be considered insured losses. Without limiting the foregoing, all of the Parties’ policies of property insurance for the Transferred Assets shall be endorsed to provide a complete waiver for the benefit of the other Parties and their Affiliates of (i) any right of recovery which the insurer may have or acquire against the other Parties or any of its Affiliates, or its or their employees, officers or directors for payments made or to be made under such policies and (ii) any lien or right of subrogation which the insurer may have or acquire for payments made or to be made to any person or entity who asserts a Claim against such other Parties or any of its Affiliates, or its or their employees, officers or directors. The releases and waivers of subrogation set forth above in this paragraph shall apply notwithstanding any obligation of a Party to indemnify the other Party for the Claim(s) at issue.

 

12


ARTICLE IV

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

4.1 General.

 

  (a)

The Operating Partnership will pay HFC an administrative fee (the “Administrative Fee”), payable in equal quarterly installments, for the provision by HFC and its Affiliates for the HEP Group’s benefit of all the general and administrative services that HFC and its Affiliates provide, including, the general and administrative services listed on Exhibit E.

 

  (b)

The Administrative Fee shall be adjusted on July 1, 2018, effective as of January 1, 2018, by an amount equal to the PPI Adjustment. Thereafter, the Administrative Fee shall be adjusted on July 1 of each calendar year, commencing on July 1, 2019, by an amount equal to the PPI Adjustment. If the PPI is no longer published, then HFC and HEP shall negotiate in good faith to agree on a new index that gives comparable protection against inflation, and the same method of adjustment for increases in the new index shall be used to calculate increases in the Administrative Fee. If the Parties are unable to agree, a new index will be determined by the dispute resolution process in Article VIII.

 

  (c)

At the end of each year, either Party will have the right to submit to the other Party a proposal to change the Administrative Fee for that year and/or the method of adjusting the Administrative Fee if either Party believes in good faith that the general and administrative services performed by HFC and its Affiliates for the benefit of the HEP Group for the year in question are inconsistent with the Administrative Fee for that year. If either Party submits such a proposal, the Parties agree that they will negotiate in good faith to determine if the Administrative Fee for that year should be changed and, if so, the amount of such change. If the Parties are unable to agree, the Parties will submit the matter to dispute resolution pursuant to Article VIII.

 

  (d)

The Administrative Fee shall not include and the HEP Group shall reimburse HFC and its Affiliates for:

 

  (i)

salaries of employees of HFC or its Affiliates, to the extent, but only to the extent, such employees perform services for the HEP Group;

 

  (ii)

the cost of employee benefits relating to employees of HFC or its Affiliates, such as 401(k), pension, and health insurance benefits, to the extent, but only to the extent, such employees perform services for the HEP Group and have not been paid by HEP pursuant to the Master Site Services Agreement and the Services and Secondment Agreement;

 

  (iii)

any amounts payable under the Master Site Services Agreement and the Services and Secondment Agreement;

 

  (iv)

all sales, use, excise, value added or similar taxes, if any, that may be applicable from time to time in respect of the services provided by the HFC and its Affiliates to HEP pursuant to Section 4.1(a); and

 

  (v)

all premiums for insurance policies carried for and on behalf of HEP.

 

13


  (e)

Either HFC, on the one hand, or HEP, on the other hand, may terminate this Article IV, by providing the other with written notice of its election to do so at least six months prior to the proposed date of termination.

ARTICLE V

RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL

5.1 HFC Right of First Refusal: Prohibition on Transfer.

 

  (a)

The HEP Entities hereby grant to HFC a right of first refusal on any proposed Transfer (other than a grant of a security interest to a bona fide third-party lender or a Transfer to another HEP Group Member) of any of the Assets.

 

  (b)

The HEP Entities are prohibited from Transferring any of the Assets to a HEP Group Member that is not a party to this Agreement. In the event the HEP Entities desire to Transfer any of the Assets to a HEP Group Member that is not a Party to this Agreement, they shall first cause the proposed transferee HEP Group Member to become a Party to this Agreement.

 

  (c)

The Parties acknowledge that all potential Transfers of Sale Assets pursuant to this Article V are subject to obtaining any and all required written consents of governmental authorities and other third parties and to the terms of all existing agreements in respect of the Sale Assets.

 

  (d)

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, as used in Article V the definition of “Assets” shall not include the Tulsa Transferred Assets, the UNEV Pipeline, the Osage Pipeline or the Cushing Connect Pipeline, but shall expressly include the equity interests of UNEV Pipeline, LLC, HEP UNEV Pipeline, HEP UNEV, El Dorado Osage, Osage, HEP Cushing and Cushing Connect then owned directly or indirectly by the HEP Entities.

 

  (e)

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties acknowledge that all potential Transfers of the Orla Truck Terminal pursuant to this Article V are subject to the rights of ALON pursuant to the ALON Purchase Agreement.

 

  (f)

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties acknowledge that all potential transfers of the equity interests of UNEV Pipeline, LLC, Osage and Cushing Connect are subject to the rights of the other members of UNEV Pipeline, LLC, Osage and Cushing Connect, respectively, pursuant to the applicable limited liability company operating agreement.

 

14


5.2 Procedures.

 

  (a)

If a HEP Entity proposes to Transfer any of the Assets to any Person pursuant to a bona fide third-party offer (an “Acquisition Proposal”), then HEP shall promptly give written notice (a “Disposition Notice”) thereof to HFC. The Disposition Notice shall set forth the following information in respect of the proposed Transfer:

 

  (i)

the name and address of the prospective acquiror (the “Proposed Transferee”);

 

  (ii)

the Assets subject to the Acquisition Proposal (the “Sale Assets”);

 

  (iii)

the purchase price offered by such Proposed Transferee (the “Offer Price”);

 

  (iv)

reasonable detail concerning any non-cash portion of the proposed consideration, if any, to allow HFC to reasonably determine the fair market value of such non-cash consideration;

 

  (v)

the HEP Entities’ estimate of the fair market value of any non-cash consideration; and

 

  (vi)

all other material terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal that are then known to the HEP Entities.

 

  (b)

To the extent the Acquisition Proposal consists of consideration other than cash (or in addition to cash) the Offer Price shall be deemed equal to the amount of any such cash plus the fair market value of such non-cash consideration. In the event HFC and the HEP Entities agree as to the fair market value of any non-cash consideration, HFC will provide written notice of its decision regarding the exercise of its right of first refusal to purchase the Sale Assets within 30 days of its receipt of the Disposition Notice (the “First ROFR Acceptance Deadline”). Failure to provide such notice within such 30-day period shall be deemed to constitute a decision not to purchase the Sale Assets.

 

  (c)

In the event (i) HFC’s determination of the fair market value of any non-cash consideration described in the Disposition Notice (to be determined by HFC within 30 days of receipt of such Disposition Notice) is less than the fair market value of such consideration as determined by the HEP Entities in the Disposition Notice and (ii) HFC and the HEP Entities are unable to mutually agree upon the fair market value of such non-cash consideration within 30 days after HFC notifies the HEP Entities of its determination thereof, the HEP Entities and HFC shall engage a mutually-agreed-upon investment banking firm to determine the fair market value of the non-cash consideration. Such investment banking firm shall be instructed to return its decision within 30 days after all material information is submitted thereto, which decision shall be final. The fees of the investment banking firm will be split equally between HFC and the HEP Entities. HFC will provide written notice of its decision regarding the exercise of its right of first refusal to purchase the Sale Assets to the HEP Entities within 30 days after the investment banking firm has submitted its determination (the “Second ROFR Acceptance Deadline”). Failure to provide such notice within such 30-day period shall be deemed to constitute a decision by HFC not to purchase the Sale Assets.

 

  (d)

If HFC fails to exercise a right during any applicable period set forth in this Section 5.2, HFC shall be deemed to have waived its rights with respect to such proposed disposition of the Sale Assets, but not with respect to any future offer of such Sale Assets.

 

15


  (e)

If HFC chooses to exercise its right of first refusal to purchase the Sale Assets under Sections 5.1(a) and 5.2(c), HFC and the HEP Entities shall enter into a purchase and sale agreement for the Sale Assets which shall include the following terms:

 

  (i)

HFC will agree to deliver cash for the Offer Price (or any other consideration agreed to by HFC and the HEP Entities (each in their sole discretion));

 

  (ii)

the HEP Entities will represent that they have good, indefeasible and unencumbered title to the Sale Assets, subject to all recorded and unrecorded matters and all physical conditions and other matters in existence on the closing date for the Sale Assets, plus any other reasonable and customary matters and such matters as HFC may approve, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld. If HFC desires to obtain any title insurance with respect to the Sale Assets, the full cost and expense of obtaining the same (including the cost of title examination, document duplication and policy premium) shall be borne by HFC;

 

  (iii)

the HEP Entities will grant to HFC the right, exercisable at HFC’s risk and expense, to conduct such surveys, tests and inspections of the Sale Assets as HFC may deem desirable, so long as such surveys, tests or inspections do not damage the Sale Assets or interfere with the activities of the HEP Entities thereon and so long as HFC has furnished the HEP Entities with evidence that adequate liability insurance is in full force and effect;

 

  (iv)

HFC will have the right to terminate its obligation to purchase the Sale Assets under this Article V if the results of any searches, surveys, tests or inspections conducted pursuant to Section 5.2(e)(ii) or Section 5.2(e)(iii) above are, in the reasonable opinion of HFC, unsatisfactory;

 

  (v)

the closing date for the purchase of the Sale Assets shall, unless otherwise agreed to by HFC and the HEP Entities, occur no later than 90 days following receipt by the HEP Entities of written notice by HFC of its intention to exercise its option to purchase the Sale Assets pursuant to Section 5.2(b) or (c);

 

  (vi)

the HEP Entities shall execute, have acknowledged and deliver to HFC a special warranty deed, assignment of easement, or comparable document, as appropriate, in the applicable jurisdiction, on the closing date for the purchase of the Sale Assets constituting real property interests conveying the Sale Assets unto HFC free and clear of all encumbrances created by the HEP Entities other than those set forth in Section 5.2(e)(ii) above;

 

  (vii)

the sale of any Sale Assets shall be made on an “as is,” “where is” and “with all faults” basis, and the instruments conveying such Sale Assets shall contain appropriate disclaimers; and

 

16


  (viii)

neither the HEP Entities nor HFC shall have any obligation to sell or buy the Sale Assets if any of the material consents referred to in Section 5.1(c) have not been obtained or such sale or purchase is prohibited by Applicable Law.

 

  (f)

HFC and the HEP Entities shall cooperate in good faith in obtaining all necessary governmental and other Third Party approvals, waivers and consents required for the closing. Any such closing shall be delayed, to the extent required, until the third Business Day following the expiration of any required waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended; provided, however, that such delay shall not exceed 120 days and, if governmental approvals and waiting periods shall not have been obtained or expired, as the case may be, by such 120th day, then HFC shall be deemed to have waived its right of first refusal with respect to the Sale Assets described in the Disposition Notice and thereafter neither HFC nor HEP shall have any further obligation under this Article V with respect to such Sale Assets unless such Sale Assets again become subject to this Article V pursuant to Section 5.2(g).

 

  (g)

If the Transfer to the Proposed Transferee is not consummated in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Proposal within the later of (i) 180 days after the later of the applicable ROFR Acceptance Deadline, and (ii) 10 days after the satisfaction of all governmental approval or filing requirements, if any, the Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to lapse, and the HEP Entities may not Transfer any of the Sale Assets described in the Disposition Notice without complying again with the provisions of this Article V if and to the extent then applicable.

ARTICLE VI

HFC PURCHASE OPTION

6.1 Option to Purchase Tulsa Transferred Assets. The Parties acknowledge the purchase options and right of first refusal granted to an Affiliate of HFC with respect to the Tulsa Transferred Assets in the Purchase Option Agreement.

ARTICLE VII

[Intentionally Omitted]

ARTICLE VIII

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

8.1 Dispute Resolution.

 

  (a)

Any Arbitrable Dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, including any question regarding the existence, validity or termination of this Agreement, shall be exclusively resolved in accordance with this Article VIII.

 

  (b)

In the event of a Arbitrable Dispute between an HFC Entity and an HEP Entity, the HFC Entity and the HEP Entity shall, within ten (10) days of a written request by either of them to the other, meet in good faith to resolve such Arbitrable Dispute in a meeting that includes individuals with authority to resolve the Arbitrable Dispute at such meeting.

 

17


  (c)

If the HFC Entity and the HEP Entity are unable to resolve the Arbitrable Dispute within ten (10) days after submission of such Arbitrable Dispute as provided in Section 8.1(b), either the HFC Entity or the HEP Entity may submit the matter to arbitration in accordance with the terms of Section 8.2 below.

 

  (d)

Pending resolution of any Arbitrable Dispute between the HFC Entity and the HEP Entity, the HFC Entity and the HEP Entity shall continue to perform in good faith their respective obligations under this Agreement based upon the last agreed performance demonstrated prior to the Arbitrable Dispute.

 

  (e)

Resolution of any Arbitrable Dispute between the HFC Entity and the HEP Entity involving payment of money by either the HFC Entity and the HEP Entity to the other shall include payment of interest at the Prime Rate from the original due date of such amount.

 

  (f)

Each of the HFC Entity and the HEP Entity shall, in addition to all rights provided herein or provided by Law, be entitled to the remedies of specific performance and injunction to enforce its rights hereunder.

8.2 Arbitration. Any and all Arbitrable Disputes must be resolved through the use of binding arbitration using three arbitrators, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, as supplemented to the extent necessary to determine any procedural appeal questions by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code, as amended from time to time).

 

  (a)

Arbitration must be initiated within the time limits set forth in this Agreement, or if no such limits apply, then within the time period allowed by the applicable statute of limitations. Arbitration may be initiated by either party (“Claimant”) by delivering written notice to the other (“Respondent”) that the Claimant elects to refer the Arbitrable Dispute to binding arbitration. Claimant’s notice initiating binding arbitration must identify the arbitrator Claimant has appointed. The Respondent shall respond to Claimant within thirty (30) days after receipt of Claimant’s notice, identifying the arbitrator Respondent has appointed. If the Respondent fails for any reason to name an arbitrator within the 30-day period, Claimant shall petition the American Arbitration Association for appointment of an arbitrator for Respondent’s account. The two arbitrators so chosen shall select a third arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the second arbitrator has been appointed.

 

  (b)

The hearing will be conducted in Dallas, Texas and commence within thirty (30) days after the selection of the third arbitrator. The parties and the arbitrators shall proceed diligently and in good faith in order that the award may be made as promptly as possible. Except as provided in the Federal Arbitration Act, the decision of the arbitrators will be binding on, and non-appealable by, the Claimant and Respondent.

 

  (c)

The Claimant will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by it, and the Respondent will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by or for it. The Claimant and Respondent will each pay one-half of the compensation and expenses of the third arbitrator.

 

18


  (d)

All arbitrators must (i) be neutral parties who have never been officers, directors or employees of any of the Parties or any of their Affiliates and who have not provided consulting services (directly or indirectly) for at least three (3) years prior to their appointment and (ii) have at least seven (7) years’ experience in the petroleum transportation industry.

 

  (e)

The arbitrators shall have no right to grant or award indirect, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages of any kind.

 

  (f)

The Arbitrable Disputes may be arbitrated in a common proceeding along with disputes under other agreements between the Claimant and Respondent to the extent that the issues raised in such disputes are related. Without the written consent of the Claimant and Respondent, no unrelated disputes (including those with Affiliates of either Claimant or Respondent) or Third Party disputes may be joined to an arbitration pursuant to this Agreement.

8.3 Conflict. If there is any inconsistency between this Article VIII and the Commercial Arbitration Rules or the Federal Arbitration Act, the terms of this Article VIII will control the rights and obligations of the parties seeking arbitration.

ARTICLE IX

FORCE MAJEURE

9.1 Force Majeure. In the event of any Party being rendered unable, wholly or in part, by a Force Majeure event from performing its obligations under any of the Master Agreements, Services and Secondment Agreement or this Agreement for a period of more than thirty (30) consecutive days, then, upon the delivery of notice and full particulars of the Force Majeure event relied on (“Force Majeure Notice”) to the other affected Party(ies), the obligations of the Parties, so far are they are affected by the Force Majeure event, shall be suspended during the continuance of any inability so caused. The cause of the Force Majeure event shall, as far as possible, be remedied with all reasonable dispatch, except that no Party shall be compelled to resolve any strikes, lockouts or other industrial disputes other than as it shall determine to be in its best interests.

ARTICLE X

MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflicts-of-law rule or principle that might refer the construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the laws of another state.

There are no Third Party beneficiaries to this Agreement.

10.10 Headings. Headings of the Sections of this Agreement are for convenience of the parties only and shall be given no substantive or interpretative effect whatsoever.
