 In consideration of the recitals and the

1. Termination of Employment Agreement. The Employment Agreement is hereby terminated effective as of April 1, 2014 and of such
date shall no longer be of any force and effect except as hereinafter provided. 
 2. Continuation of Employment with SemManagement.
Notwithstanding the termination of the Employment Agreement, following such termination Executive shall continue as an at-will employee of SemManagement under the direction of the Board of Directors of SemGroup Corporation until such time as either
SemManagement elects to terminate Executive’s employment or Executive resigns (the “Effective Date”). Following such termination and through the Effective Date, SemManagement shall continue to pay Executive at his current base salary

employed in the United States. 
 3. Employment Agreement Provisions Surviving Termination. The following provisions of the Employment
Agreement shall survive termination: Section 8(a) (Payments Upon Termination) and Section 11 (Confidentiality and Other Covenants). In addition, Executive’s obligation to execute any documents necessary to reflect his resignation
pursuant to Section 2(c) of the Employment Agreement shall survive termination. To the extent Section 11 of the Employment Agreement specifically provides for the survival of a covenant following the termination of Executive’s
employment with SemManagement or following the Employment Term (as defined in the Employment Agreement), the survival period shall begin on the Effective Date. 







 4. Survival of Indemnity Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any rights to
indemnification to which Executive is entitled in his capacity as a former officer and director of SemGroup and of each of the subsidiaries, partnerships, joint ventures, limited liability companies and Affiliates (as defined in the Employment
Agreement) of SemGroup, whether under the Employment Agreement, SemGroup’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, SemGroup’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, any directors’ and officers’ insurance policy or otherwise.

of the State of Delaware, without regard for choice of law provisions of any other state.
