I.                                        Exhibit B-1 (“Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel Specifications”) is attached hereto and incorporated by reference.

 

J.                                        Exhibit E (“Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel Example Price Calculation”) is attached hereto and incorporated by reference.

 

K.                                   Effective Date:  The parties agree that this Second Amendment is subject to and conditioned upon approval by the Public Utilities Commission of the State of Hawaii (“Commission”) as follows:

 

(a)                                 BUYER will file an application (“Application”) with the Commission requesting approval of this Amendment following its execution.  This Amendment is contingent upon the issuance of a decision and order by the Commission that (i) approves this Amendment and its pricing and terms and conditions, (ii) is in a final form deemed to be reasonable by BUYER in its sole discretion, and (iii) allows BUYER to include the costs incurred by BUYER pursuant to this Amendment in its revenue requirements for ratemaking purposes and for the purposes of determining the reasonableness of BUYER’S rates and/or for cost recovery above those fuel costs included in base rate through BUYER’S Energy Cost Adjustment Clause.  A decision and order by the Commission satisfying these conditions is hereinafter referred to as the “Commission Approval Order”.

 

(b)                                 SELLER understands that the decision and order may not be in a form deemed to be final and/or reasonable to BUYER if (i) it is not an unconditional approval, (ii) it denies or defers ruling on any part of BUYER’s Application, (iii) it contains terms and conditions deemed to be unacceptable to BUYER, in its sole discretion, or (iv) BUYER, in its sole discretion, is not satisfied that the decision and order will not be appealed.

 

12











 

(c)                                  If BUYER has not received the Commission Approval Order in a final form acceptable to BUYER within 180 Days of the date of this Amendment, or if BUYER’s request for Commission approval of this Amendment is denied, then either SELLER or BUYER may terminate this Amendment by providing written notice of such termination delivered to the other.  In such event of termination, each party shall bear its own respective fees, costs and expenses incurred prior to termination, if any, in preparation for performance hereunder, and the parties shall have no further obligation to each other with respect to this Amendment except for indemnity and any confidentiality obligations assumed by the parties hereunder.  Such termination shall be effective only as to this Amendment and shall not be deemed to affect the status of or terminate the Contract, as amended by the First Amendment.

 

(d)                                 SELLER, at its own cost, shall promptly cooperate with BUYER’s reasonable requests for support of BUYER’s efforts to prepare and file the Application and obtain the Commission Approval Order.

 

(e)                                  This Amendment shall become effective (the “Effective Date”) upon (a) receipt by BUYER of the Commission Approval Order and (b) notice from BUYER to SELLER that BUYER deems the Commission Approval Order to be reasonable and in a final form.  BUYER shall immediately notify SELLER when the Commission Approval Order is issued. BUYER shall then have a period of ten (10) business days to advise SELLER whether it deems the Commission Approval Order to be final and reasonable.  If BUYER fails to respond within that period, then it shall be presumed that BUYER deems the Commission Approval Order to be final and reasonable.  If BUYER provides notice of concern that the Commission Approval Order may not be final or reasonable, then the parties may negotiate for an appropriate extension of the Effective Date to address those concerns.  Alternatively, the parties may mutually agree in writing that some other date shall be deemed the Effective Date.  Except for the obligations and provisions described herein, neither party shall have any binding obligations under this Amendment until the Effective Date.

 

L.                                     Addendum No. 2, Section 17, Required Insurance, as amended by the First Amendment, is hereby amended by deleting and replacing it in its entirety with the following:

 

Section 17: Required Insurance.  Without in any way limiting BUYER’s liability pursuant to this Contract, BUYER shall maintain and require any carrier to maintain the following insurance and all insurance that may be required under the Applicable Laws, ordinances and regulations of any Governmental Authority.

 

(a)                                 At all times during the term of this Contract and for a period of 2 years after termination of this Contract for any coverage maintained on a “claims-made” basis, BUYER shall maintain at its own expense the below listed insurance.  Such insurance shall provide coverage to Tesoro and its affiliates, irrespective of whether Article XVIII Indemnity in the Contract is enforceable, in any state.  Each policy shall provide that it is 

 

13











 

primary to and not contributory with any other insurance, including any self-insured retention, maintained by Tesoro or its affiliates (which shall be excess) and each policy shall provide the full coverage required by this Contract.  All such insurance shall be written with carriers and underwriters acceptable to Tesoro and having and maintaining an A.M. Best financial strength rating of no less than “A-” and financial size rating no less than “VII”.

 

(i)                                     Worker’s Compensation Insurance as required by Hawaii State Law.  Such insurance shall include a waiver of the insurer’s rights of subrogation against Tesoro and its affiliates.

 

(ii)                                  Employer’s Liability Insurance with a minimum limit of [ - - - ] for each accident, covering injury or death to any employee which may be outside the scope of the worker’s compensation statute of the jurisdiction in which the worker’s service is performed, and in the aggregate as respects occupational disease.  Such insurance shall include a waiver of the insurer’s rights of subrogation against Tesoro and its affiliates.

 

(iii)                               Commercial General Liability Insurance, including contractual liability insurance covering BUYER’s indemnity obligations under this Contract, with minimum limits of [ - - - ] combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury and property damage liability, or such higher amounts as may be required by Tesoro or by Applicable Law from time to time.  This policy shall include Broad Form Contractual Liability insurance coverage which shall specifically apply to the obligations assumed in this Contract by BUYER.  Such insurance shall include Tesoro and its affiliates as an additional insured and shall include a waiver of any rights of subrogation against Tesoro and its affiliates.

 

(iv)                              Automobile Liability Insurance covering all owned, non-owned, and hired vehicles with minimum limits of [ - - - ] combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury and property damage liability, or such higher amounts as may be required by Tesoro or Applicable Law from time to time.  Such insurance shall name Tesoro and its affiliates as an additional insured and shall include a waiver of any rights of subrogation against Tesoro and its affiliates.

 

(b)                                 With respect to the insurance coverage requirements specified in Subparagraphs (ii) through (iv) above, BUYER may comply with such requirements by combining coverage between a primary insurer and an excess insurer or insurers.  In such event, however, Tesoro and its affiliates shall be named as an additional insured on all such policies (except as noted in Subparagraph (i) above), and all policies of insurance shall include a waiver of any rights of subrogation in favor of Tesoro and its affiliates.

 

(c)                                  The above insurance shall include the requirement that the insurer provide BUYER with thirty (30) days notice (10 days notice for non-payment of premium), prior to the effective date of any cancellation or material change of the insurance. BUYER shall provide such notice to Tesoro within two (2) business days. The insurance specified in Subparagraphs (i) through (iv) shall contain a waiver of subrogation in favor of Tesoro and an assignment of statutory lien, if applicable.

 

14











 

(d)                                 The insurance specified in Subparagraphs (iii) and (iv) shall include Tesoro as an additional insured provided that the insurance is primary in coverage with respect to all policies of insurance that may be applicable, and contains a standard cross-liability endorsement or severability of interest clause.

 

(e)                                  The insurance requirements set forth herein do not in any way limit BUYER’S liability or responsibility under any other provision of this Contract or at law.

 

(f)                                   BUYER shall be solely responsible for any deductibles or self-insured retention.

 

(g)                                  BUYER’S failure to comply with any or all requirements of this Section 17 shall constitute a material breach and cause for immediate termination of this Contract by Tesoro.  Tesoro’s acceptance of furnished evidence of insurance shall not modify the above insurance requirements.

 

(h)                                 Before Tesoro shall be obliged to perform under this Contract as described herein, BUYER shall provide Tesoro with certificates or other documentary evidence satisfactory to Tesoro of the insurance coverages and endorsements.

 

(i)                                     Without in any way limiting Tesoro’s liability, Tesoro shall obtain from any carrier related to this Contract the insurance coverage and endorsements set forth in this Section 17 except that both Tesoro and BUYER shall be named as an additional insured.

 

Tesoro reserves the right to change insurance requirements periodically upon reasonable notice to BUYER.

 

For the purposes of this Contract, “Applicable Law” means any and all applicable present and future laws, statutes, rules, regulations, ordinances, orders, codes, judgments, decrees, or requirements, by any Governmental Authority.  “Governmental Authority” means any federal, state, territorial, municipal or other governmental or quasi-governmental authority, agency, court, or other body or entity of competent jurisdiction.
