During the Term and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Logistics agrees to: (i) own or lease and operate and maintain in accordance with Section 10(b) all assets necessary to handle the Materials from Lion; (ii) provide the services required under this Agreement; and (iii) perform all operations relating to the Terminal and the Tankage that it is required to perform under the Transaction Agreements.
(b)    Minimum Throughput Commitment at the Terminal.  During each Contract Quarter during the Term and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lion agrees that, commencing on the Effective Date, Lion shall throughput at least the Minimum Throughput Commitment at the Terminal, and Logistics shall make available to Lion dedicated capacity at the Terminal, at all times sufficient to allow Lion to throughput the Minimum Throughput Capacity at 

- 10 -




the Terminal.  Allocation of capacity for Materials of different types at the Terminal shall be in accordance with practices as of the Effective Date, or as otherwise may be agreed between the Parties from time to time.
(c)    Throughput Fee at the Terminal.
(i)    The throughput fee initially applicable to throughput at the Terminal shall be $0.50 per barrel (the “Throughput Fee”).  Subject to Sections 2(e) and Section 2(h), Lion shall pay Logistics an amount equal to the Throughput Fee multiplied by the Actual Throughput at the Terminal.
(ii)    Logistics shall provide the Ancillary Services to Lion at the Terminal.  Lion shall pay the per-barrel Ancillary Services Fees listed on Exhibit B for such services.  All fuel additives, dyes, de-icers and other additions requested to be added to the Materials will be provided by Lion at no cost to Logistics.
(iii)    The Throughput Fee shall be adjusted on July 1 of each Contract Year commencing on July 1, 2014, by an amount equal to the increase or decrease, if any, in the Inflation Index; provided, however, that the Throughput Fee shall not be decreased below the initial Throughput Fee provided in this Section 2(c).  If the PPI is no longer published, Logistics and Lion 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 or decreases in the new index shall be used to calculate increases or decreases in the Throughput Fee.  If Lion and Logistics are unable to agree, a new index will be determined by arbitration in accordance with Section 21(m) and the same method of adjustment for increases in the new index shall be used to calculate increases in the Throughput Fee.
(iv)    During the Term of this Agreement, if new laws or regulations are enacted that require Logistics to make substantial and unanticipated capital expenditures with respect to the Terminal, the Parties will renegotiate the Throughput Fee in good faith in order to compensate Logistics on account of such incremental capital costs.  The Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the impact of, and comply with, such new laws or regulations.  If Lion and Logistics are unable to agree upon a renegotiated Throughput Fee, the renegotiated Throughput Fee will be determined by arbitration in accordance with Section 21(m).

- 11 -




(ii)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Effective Date is any date other than the first day of a calendar month, then the Storage Fees for the initial contract month shall be prorated based upon the number of days remaining in such month.
(iii)    The Materials storage capacity provided to Lion in the Tankage may be temporarily reduced by Logistics (without any adjustment to the Storage Fees) as a result of repairs and/or maintenance on storage tanks that reduce the storage capacity available in Tankage, so long as the reduced storage capacity will not result in the inability of Logistics to provide the Group A Minimum Storage Capacity, the Group B Minimum Storage Capacity or the Group C Minimum Storage Capacity.
(iv)    The amount of the Storage Fees shall be adjusted on July 1 of each Contract Year commencing on July 1, 2014, by an amount equal to the increase or decrease, if any, in the Inflation Index, provided, however, that the Storage Fees shall not be decreased below the initial Storage Fees provided in this Section 2(d).  If the PPI is no longer published, Lion and Logistics shall negotiate in good faith to agree upon a new index that gives comparable protection against inflation and the same method of adjustment for increases or decreases in the new index shall be used to calculate increases or decreases in the Storage Fees.  If Lion and Logistics are unable to agree upon a new index, the new index will be determined by arbitration in accordance with Section 21(m).
(v)    During the Term of this Agreement, if new laws or regulations are enacted that require Logistics to make substantial and unanticipated capital expenditures with respect to the Tankage, the Parties will renegotiate the Storage Fees in good faith in order to compensate Logistics on account of such incremental capital costs.  The Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the impact of, and comply with, such new laws or regulations.  If Lion and Logistics are unable to agree upon renegotiated Storage Fees, the renegotiated Storage Fees will be determined by arbitration in accordance with Section 21(m).
(vi)    Allocation of storage capacity for separate Materials in the Tankage shall be in accordance with current practices, or as otherwise may be agreed between the Parties from time to time.
(e)    Shortfalls.  
(i)    If, for any Contract Quarter, Actual Throughput is less than the Minimum Throughput Commitment, then Lion shall pay Logistics an amount (a “Shortfall Payment”) equal to the difference between (i) the Minimum Throughput Commitment multiplied by the Throughput Fee and (ii) the aggregate Throughput Fees for such Contract Quarter payable under Section 2(c)(i).
(ii)    The Parties acknowledge and agree that there shall be no carry-over of deficiency volumes with respect to the Minimum Throughput Commitment and the payment by Lion of the Shortfall Payment shall relieve Lion of any obligation to meet such Minimum Throughput Commitment for the relevant Contract Quarter.  The Parties further acknowledge 

- 12 -




and agree that there shall not be any carry-over of volumes in excess of the Minimum Throughput Commitment to any subsequent Contract Quarter.
(f)    Operating and Capital Expenses.
(i)    Except as provided in the Omnibus Agreement and Section 2(f)(ii), during the Term and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Section 2(i), Logistics will bear 100% of all operating and capital expenses incurred in its operation of the Terminal and the Tankage.

(ii)    At the end of the first four complete Contract Quarters following the Effective Date, Logistics shall calculate the aggregate operating expenses incurred in the operation of the Terminal and the Tankage during that twelve-month period (provided that such calculation shall not include extraordinary and non-recurring items of expense that are not reasonably expected to recur in future periods during the Term).  In the event that such aggregate operating expenses exceed the Assumed OPEX, (A) Lion shall make a one-time positive adjustment to the fees hereunder to Logistics in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of such operating expenses over the Assumed OPEX (without duplication of any other expenses reimbursement hereunder) and (B) the Parties shall increase the Throughput Fee and/or the Storage Fee by an amount necessary to increase the aggregate fees payable hereunder by an amount equal to the excess, if any, of such aggregate operating expenses over the Assumed OPEX for the remainder of the Term.  In the event that such aggregate operating expenses are less than the Assumed OPEX, (A) Logistics shall make a one-time negative adjustment to the fees hereunder to Lion in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Assumed OPEX over such operating expenses and (B) the Parties shall decrease the Throughput Fee and/or the Storage Fee by an amount necessary to decrease the aggregate fees payable hereunder by an amount equal to the difference between the Assumed OPEX and such actual operating expenses for the remainder of the Term.
(g)    Taxes.  Lion will pay all taxes, import duties, license fees and other charges by any Governmental Authority levied on or with respect to the Materials delivered by Lion at the Terminal or the Tankage, including, but not limited to, any state gross receipts and compensating (use) taxes; provided, however, that Lion shall not be liable hereunder for taxes (including ad valorem taxes) assessed against Logistics based on Logistics’ income or ownership of the Terminal and the Tankage.  Should any Party be required to pay or collect any taxes, duties, charges and or assessments pursuant to any federal, state, county or municipal law or authority now in effect or hereafter to become effective which are payable by the other Party pursuant to this Section 2(g), the proper Party shall promptly reimburse the other Party therefor.
(h)    Invoicing and Timing of Payments.  Logistics shall invoice Lion monthly (or, in the case of Shortfall Payments, quarterly).  Lion will make payments to Logistics on a monthly (or, in the case of Shortfall Payments, quarterly) basis during the Term with respect to services rendered

by Logistics under this Agreement in the prior month (or, in the case of Shortfall Payments, Contract Quarter) upon the later of (i) 10 days after its receipt of such invoice and (ii) 30 days following the end of the calendar month (or, in the case of Shortfall Payments, Contract Quarter) during which the invoiced services were performed.  Any past due payments owed by Lion to Logistics shall accrue interest, payable on demand, at the Prime Rate from the due date of the payment through the actual date of payment.  Payment of any Throughput Fees, Storage Fees or Shortfall Payments pursuant to this Section 2 shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Logistics.  If any such fee shall be due and payable on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be due and payable on the next succeeding Business Day.
(i)    Capital Improvements.  During the term of this Agreement, Lion shall be entitled to designate Capital Improvements to be made to the Terminal and the Tankage.  The following provisions shall set forth the procedures pursuant to which Capital Improvements designated by Lion may be constructed: 
(i)    For any Capital Improvement designated by Lion, Lion shall submit a written proposal, including all specifications then available to it, for the proposed Capital Improvement to the Terminal and/or the Tankage, as the case may be.
(ii)    Logistics will review such proposal to determine, in its sole discretion, whether it will consent to proceed with the proposed Capital Improvement.
(iii)    Should Logistics determine to proceed and construct or cause to be constructed the approved Capital Improvement, Logistics will obtain bids from two or more general contractors reasonably acceptable to Lion for the construction of the Capital Improvement.  Based upon the bids, Logistics will notify Lion of Logistics’ estimate of the total cost necessary to construct such Capital Improvement (the “Capital Expenditure Notice”) (which amount shall include the costs of capital and any other costs necessary to place such Capital Improvement in service) (“Estimated Expansion Capital Expenditure”).  Within 30 days of the Capital Expenditure Notice, Lion will notify Logistics whether or not Lion agrees to such Estimated Expansion Capital Expenditure.  In the event Lion does not agree with such Estimated Expansion Capital Expenditure, the Parties shall work together in good faith to reach agreement on the Estimated Expansion Capital Expenditure (the agreed amount is referred to as the “Expansion Capital Expenditure”); provided that, in the event the Parties do not reach such agreement within 60 days of the Capital Expenditure Notice, Lion shall be entitled to proceed with the construction of the Capital Improvement in accordance with Section 2(i)(v) below.
(iv)    Prior to beginning any construction on the Capital Improvement, (1) Logistics shall have received all necessary regulatory approvals, (2) Logistics and Lion shall have agreed on (A) an additional monthly payment amount to be paid by Lion to Logistics (the “Monthly Expansion Capital Amount”) which amount (x) shall be payable over a mutually agreed upon term not to exceed the then remaining balance of the Initial Term (or the then current Renewal Term) plus any Renewal Term to which Lion is then committed or shall then commit (the “Capital Amortization Period”), and (y) shall be sufficient to provide Logistics the equivalent of a rate of return equal to the Prime Rate plus an additional rate 

- 14 -




of return to be agreed to by the Parties over the Capital Amortization Period on the Expansion Capital Expenditure after taking into account the increased cash flows to Logistics reasonably anticipated to be received by Logistics from Lion (or from a third party pursuant to a direct contractual commitment to Logistics) in connection with such Capital Improvement, or (B) another adjustment to the Throughput Fee or the Storage Fees, as applicable, as the Parties may agree and (3) the Parties shall have agreed on any adjustment to the Minimum Throughput Commitment, the Minimum Throughput Capacity or the Minimum Storage Capacity, as the case may be.  The Monthly Expansion Capital Amount, if applicable, shall be billed and paid monthly following the commencement of operations of the Capital Improvement and Lion’s obligation to pay the Monthly Expansion Capital Amount shall survive the termination of this Agreement (other than a termination in connection with a breach of this Agreement by Logistics or a Force Majeure event affecting the ability of Logistics to provide services under this Agreement).  In connection with the construction of any Capital Improvement pursuant to this Section 2(i)(iv), Lion shall be entitled to participate in all stages of planning, scheduling, implementing, and oversight of the construction.  Lion shall also be entitled to audit all expenditures incurred in connection with the Capital Improvement in accordance with Section 21(o).  The Parties agree that any Capital Improvement constructed by Logistics pursuant to this Section 2(i)(iv) shall be treated as the separate property of Logistics.
(v)    If for any reason the Capital Improvement shall not be constructed pursuant to Section 2(i)(iv) above, and such Capital Improvement is in accordance with applicable required engineering and regulatory standards, and the Parties agree that the Capital Improvement would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact on the operations or efficiency of the Terminal or the Tankage, taken as a whole, or result in any material additional unreimbursed costs to Logistics, then Lion may proceed with the construction and financing of the Capital Improvement and, upon completion of construction, Lion shall be the owner and operator of such Capital Improvement.  The Parties agree that any Capital Improvement constructed by Lion pursuant to this Section 2(i)(v) shall be treated as the separate property of Lion.  Logistics shall reasonably cooperate with Lion in ensuring that the Capital Improvement shall operate as intended, including by operating and maintaining all necessary connections to the Terminal and the Tankage, subject to Lion’s reimbursing Logistics on a monthly basis for any incremental expenses arising from operating or maintaining such connections as determined by Logistics in good faith.  Lion shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Logistics Indemnitees from and against any Liabilities resulting from the construction, ownership and operation by Lion of any Capital Improvement constructed by Lion pursuant to this Section 2(i)(v).
(vi)    Upon completion of the construction of such Capital Improvement, Logistics or Lion, as applicable, will own such Capital Improvement, and will operate and maintain such Capital Improvement in accordance with Applicable Law and recognized industry standards.
(j)    Marketing of Throughput and Storage Services to Third Parties.  During the Term, Logistics may provide throughput services to third parties at the Terminal and storage services to 

- 15 -




third parties in the Tankage, provided that, (i) the provision of such throughput and storage services to third parties is not reasonably likely to negatively impact Lion’s ability to use either the Terminal or the Tankage in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in any material respect, (ii) prior to any third party use of either of the Terminal or the Tankage or the entry into any agreement with respect thereto, Logistics shall have received prior written consent from Lion with respect to such third party usage or the entry into such agreement, as applicable, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and (iii) to the extent such third-party usage reduces the ability of Logistics to provide the Minimum Throughput Capacity or the applicable Minimum Storage Capacity, the Minimum Throughput Commitment or the Storage Fees, as applicable, shall be proportionately reduced to the extent of the difference between the Minimum Throughput Capacity or the applicable Minimum Storage Capacity and the amount that can be throughput at the Terminal or stored in the Tankage (prorated for the portion of the Contract Quarter during which the Minimum Throughput Capacity or the applicable Minimum Storage Capacity was unavailable).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent Lion is not using any portion of the Terminal or the Tankage (the “Open Assets”) during a Force Majeure event set forth in Section 5 or the Notice Period set forth in Section 16, Logistics may provide throughput and/or storage services to third parties on the Open Assets pursuant to one or more third-party agreements without the consent of Lion, and the Minimum Throughput Commitment and the applicable Storage Fee will be reduced to the extent of such third-party usage as set forth above; provided that such third-party agreements and related services shall terminate following the end of the Force Majeure Period or the restoration of Refinery operations, as applicable.
(k)    Removal of Tank for Service or Inspection.  The Parties agree that if they mutually determine to remove a tank included in the Tankage from service or if a tank included in the Tankage is removed from service for inspection in compliance with API Standard 653 for Aboveground Storage Tanks, then Logistics will not be required to utilize, operate or maintain such tank or provide the services required under this Agreement with respect to such tank; provided, however, that any such removal will not reduce the Storage Fees except to the extent that Logistics is unable to provide to Lion the applicable Minimum Storage Capacity.
(l)    Documentation.  Logistics shall furnish Lion with the following reports covering services hereunder involving Lion’s Materials:
(i)    Within 10 Business Days following the end of the month, a statement showing, by Material: (A) Lion’s monthly aggregate deliveries into the Terminal and the Tankage; (B) Lion’s monthly receipts from the Terminal and the Tankage; (C) calculation of all Lion’s monthly services fees under this Agreement; (D) Lion’s opening inventory for the preceding month; and (E) Lion’s closing inventory for the preceding month.
(ii)    A copy of any meter calibration report, to be available for inspection upon reasonable request by Lion following any calibration.
(iii)    Upon delivery from the Terminal and the Tankage, a bill of lading to the carrier for each truck delivery.  As reasonably requested by Lion, bill of lading information shall be provided to Lion’s accounting group.  Upon each truck delivery from the Terminal 

- 16 -




and the Tankage, bill of lading information shall be sent electronically through a mutually agreeable system.
(iv)    Transfer documents for each in-tank transfer.
(v)    Logistics shall be required to maintain the capabilities to support truck load authorization technologies at the Terminal and the Tankage.  However, costs incurred by Logistics for replacement of loading systems or software or other upgrades made at the request of Lion shall be recoverable from Lion either as a lump sum payment or through an increase in Throughput Fees.
Section 3.    Custody, Title and Risk of Loss.  
(a)    Subject to Section 22, Lion shall, at all times during the Term, retain exclusive legal title to the Materials stored or throughput by it at the Tankage and the Terminal, and such Materials shall remain Lion’s exclusive property.  Lion hereby represents (subject to Section 22) that, at all times during the Term, it holds exclusive legal title to the Materials throughput or stored by it at the Tankage and the Terminal, free and clear of any liens, security interests, encumbrances and claims whatsoever, other than (a) Permitted Liens and (b) any liens, security interests, encumbrances and claims with respect to which Lion has entered into an agreement reasonably acceptable to Logistics subordinating such lien, security interest, encumbrance or claim to any applicable rights of Logistics under this Agreement.
(b)    During the time any Materials are held or throughput at the Tankage or the Terminal, Logistics shall be solely responsible for compliance with all Applicable Laws pertaining to the possession, handling, use and processing of such Materials.
(c)    Subject to Section 22, legal title and risk of loss to all of the Materials stored or throughput by Lion at the Tankage and the Terminal shall remain at all times with Lion.  Lion shall, during each month, (i) be entitled to all volumetric gains in the Tankage and the Terminal and (ii) be responsible for all volumetric losses in the Tankage and the Terminal up to a maximum of 0.25%.  If volume losses of any Materials exceed 0.25% during any particular month, Logistics shall pay Lion for the difference between the actual loss and the 0.25% allowance at a price per barrel for that Material as reported by the Oil Price Information Service (“OPIS”) using the monthly average OPIS unbranded contract rack posting for that Material during the month in which the volume difference was accounted for.
(d)    During the Term, Logistics shall hold all Materials at the Tankage and the Terminal solely as bailee and represents and warrants that when any such Materials are redelivered to Lion, Lion shall have good legal title thereto, free and clear of any liens, security interests, encumbrances and claims of any kind whatsoever created or caused to be created by Logistics.  During the Term, none of Logistics or any of its Affiliates shall (and Logistics shall not permit any of its Affiliates or any other Person to) use any such Materials for any purpose.  Solely in its capacity as bailee, Logistics shall have custody of the Materials stored or transported under this Agreement from the time such Materials are delivered to Logistics until such time that the Materials pass the outlet 

- 17 -




flange of the Terminal or, if there is no outlet flange, at such time that the Materials are re-delivered to Lion.
Section 4.    Inspection and Access Rights.
(a)    At any reasonable times during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice, Lion and its representatives (including one or more Supplier’s Inspectors) shall have the right to enter and exit Logistics’ premises in order to have access to the Tankage and the Terminal for any purpose relating to this Agreement, including to enforce its rights and interests hereunder, to observe the operations of the Tankage and the Terminal and to conduct such inspections as Lion (or its assignee) may wish to have performed in connection with this Agreement, including the right to inspect, gauge, measure, take product samples or take readings at the Tankage and the Terminal on a spot basis; provided that (i) Lion’s personnel shall follow routes and paths designated by Logistics or security personnel employed by Logistics, (ii) Lion’s personnel shall observe all security, fire and safety regulations while, in around or about the Terminal and the Tankage, and (iii) Lion shall be liable for any damage directly caused by the negligence or other tortious conduct of such personnel.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Logistics shall regularly grant the Supplier’s Inspector such access from the last day of each month until the third Business Day of the ensuing month.  Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, if an Event of Default with respect to Logistics has occurred and is continuing, Lion (or its assignee) and its representatives and agents (including one or more Supplier’s Inspectors) shall have unlimited and unrestricted access to the Terminal as such Event of Default continues.
(b)    When accessing the facilities of Logistics, Lion and its representatives (including one or more Supplier’s Inspectors) shall at all times comply with Applicable Law and such safety directives and guidelines as may be furnished to Lion by Logistics in writing from time to time.
(c)    For all purposes hereunder, any jobbers, distributors, carriers, haulers and other customers designated in writing or otherwise by Lion to have loading privileges under this Agreement or having possession of any loading device furnished to Lion pursuant to this Agreement, together with their respective officers, servants and employees, shall, when they access the Terminal and/or the Tankage, be deemed to be representatives of Lion and subject to the applicable terms of this Agreement, and any such person shall enter into an appropriate access agreement with Logistics with respect to such access.
Section 5.    Force Majeure.
(a)    In the event that either Party is rendered unable, wholly or in part, by a Force Majeure event to perform its obligations under this Agreement, then upon the delivery by such Party (the “Force Majeure Party”) of written notice (a “Force Majeure Notice”) and full particulars of the Force Majeure event as promptly as practicable after the occurrence of the Force Majeure event relied on, the obligations of the Parties, to the extent they are affected by the Force Majeure event, shall be suspended for the duration of any inability so caused; provided that: (i) prior to the third anniversary of the Effective Date, Lion shall be required to continue to make payments (1) for the Throughput Fees for volumes actually throughput under this Agreement, (2) for the Storage Fees, and (3) for any Shortfall Payments unless, in the case of (2) and (3), the Force Majeure event 

- 18 -




adversely affects Logistics’ ability to perform the services it is required to perform under this Agreement, in which case, as applicable, the Storage Fees shall only be paid (x) if the effect of such Force Majeure event on Logistics does not result in the inability of the Refinery to operate and (y) to the extent Lion utilizes the applicable Tankage for the storage of its Materials during the applicable month, and instead of Shortfall Payments, Throughput Fees shall only be paid as provided under (i)(1) above; and (ii) from and after the third anniversary of the Effective Date, Lion shall be required to continue to make payments (1) for the Throughput Fees for volumes actually delivered under this Agreement and (2) for the Storage Fee to the extent Lion utilizes the applicable Tankage for the storage of its Materials during the applicable month.  The Force Majeure Party shall identify in such Force Majeure Notice the approximate length of time that it believes in good faith such Force Majeure event shall continue (the “Force Majeure Period”).  Lion shall be required to pay any amounts accrued and due under this Agreement at the time of the Force Majeure event.  The cause of the Force Majeure event shall so far as possible be remedied with all reasonable dispatch, except that neither 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.  Prior to the third anniversary of the Effective Date, any suspension of the obligations of the Parties under this Section 3(a) as a result of a Force Majeure event that adversely affects Logistics’ ability to perform the services it is required to perform under this Agreement shall extend the Term for the same period of time as such Force Majeure event continues (up to a maximum of one year) unless this Agreement is terminated under Section 3(b).
(b)    If the Force Majeure Party advises in any Force Majeure Notice that it reasonably believes in good faith that the Force Majeure Period shall continue for more than 12 consecutive months beyond the third anniversary of the Effective Date, then at any time after the delivery of such Force Majeure Notice, either Party may deliver to the other Party a notice of termination (a “Termination Notice”), which Termination Notice shall become effective not earlier than 12 months after the later to occur of (x) the delivery of the Termination Notice and (y) the third anniversary of the Effective Date; provided, however, that such Termination Notice shall be deemed cancelled and of no effect if the Force Majeure Period ends before the Termination Notice becomes effective; provided, further, that if the Termination Notice relates to a Force Majeure event that affects only the Terminal, then if and when such Termination Notice becomes effective, the termination effected thereby shall apply only to the obligations hereunder with respect to the Terminal and shall not apply to the obligations hereunder with respect to the Tankage.  Upon the cancellation of any Termination Notice, the Parties’ respective obligations hereunder shall resume as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, and the Term shall be extended by the same period of time as is required for the Parties to resume such obligations.  After the third anniversary of the Effective Date and following delivery of a Termination Notice, Logistics may terminate this Agreement, to the extent affected by the Force Majeure event, upon 60 days prior written notice to Lion in order to enter into an agreement to provide any third party the services provided to Lion under this Agreement; provided, however, that Logistics shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement for so long as Lion continues to make Shortfall Payments.

Section 6.    Effectiveness and Term.
(a)    The initial term of this Agreement (the “Initial Term”) shall commence at 00:00:01 a.m., CPT, on the Effective Date and shall continue until the eighth anniversary of the Effective Date.  Thereafter, Lion shall have a unilateral option to extend this Agreement for two additional four-year periods on the same terms and conditions set forth herein (each, a “Renewal Term”).  The Initial Term and the Renewal Terms are sometimes referred to collectively herein as the “Term.” In order to exercise its option to extend this Agreement for a Renewal Term, Lion shall notify Logistics in writing not less than 12 months prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, as applicable.
(b)    The Parties may terminate this Agreement prior to the end of the Term (but are under no obligation to do so) (i) as they may mutually agree in writing, (ii) pursuant to a Termination Notice under Section 5(b), (iii) pursuant to a Suspension Notice under Section 16(b) or (iv) pursuant to Section 18(b).  
(c)    Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, Logistics shall be responsible for removing any remaining Materials of Lion from the Tankage and the Terminal.
(d)    Lion shall, upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, promptly remove any and all of its owned equipment, if any, and restore the Tankage and the Terminal to their condition prior to the installation of such equipment.
Section 7.    Right to Enter into a New Agreement.
In the event that Lion fails to exercise its option to extend this Agreement for any Renewal Term, Logistics shall have the right to negotiate to enter into one or more new throughput and tankage agreements with respect to the Terminal and/or the Tankage with one or more third parties to begin after the date of termination.  In such circumstances, Logistics shall give Lion 45 days’ prior written notice of any proposed new throughput and tankage agreement with a third party, including (i) the material terms and conditions thereof (including fee schedules, tariffs and duration) and (ii) a 45-day period (beginning on Lion’s receipt of such written notice) (the “First Offer Period”) in which Lion may enter into a new throughput and tankage agreement with Logistics (the “Right of First Refusal”).  If Lion makes an offer on commercial terms that are no less favorable, taken as a whole, than the proposed third-party offer with respect to such throughput and tankage agreement during the First Offer Period, then Logistics shall be obligated to enter into a throughput and tankage agreement with Lion on the terms set forth in its proposed offer.  If Lion does not exercise its Right of First Refusal in the matter set forth above, Logistics may proceed with the negotiation of and entry into the third-party agreement.
Section 8.    Notices.
All notices, requests, demands, and other communications hereunder will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given: (a) if by transmission by facsimile or hand delivery, when delivered; (b) if mailed via the official governmental mail system, five (5) Business Days after mailing, provided that said notice is sent first class, postage pre-paid, via certified or registered

Section 9.    Deficiency Payments.

- 21 -




(a)    As soon as practicable following the end of each calendar month under this Agreement, Logistics shall deliver to Lion a written notice (the “Deficiency Notice”) detailing any failure of Lion to meet any of its payment obligations under this Agreement.  The Deficiency Notice shall (i) specify in reasonable detail the nature of any payment deficiency and (ii) specify the approximate dollar amount that Logistics believes would have been paid by Lion to Logistics if Lion had complied with its payment obligations under this Agreement (the “Deficiency Payment”).  Lion shall pay the Deficiency Payment to Logistics 10 days after its receipt of the Deficiency Notice.
(b)    If Lion disagrees with the Deficiency Notice, then, promptly following the payment of any undisputed portion of the Deficiency Payment to Logistics, a senior officer of Lion and a senior officer of Logistics 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.  If such differences are not resolved within 30 days following the payment of any Deficiency Payment, Lion and Logistics shall, within 45 days following the payment of such Deficiency Payment, submit any and all matters which remain in dispute and which were properly included in the Deficiency Notice to arbitration in accordance with Section 21(m).  During the 60-day period following the receipt of the Deficiency Notice, Lion shall have the right, in accordance with Section 21(o), to inspect and audit the working papers of Logistics relating to such Deficiency Payment.
(c)    If it is determined by arbitration in accordance with Section 21(m) that Lion was required to make any or all of the disputed portion of the Deficiency Payment, Lion shall promptly pay to Logistics such amount, together with interest thereon from the date provided in the last sentence of Section 9(a) at the Prime Rate, in immediately available funds.
Section 10.    Condition and Maintenance of Tankage and the Terminal.
(a)    Interruption of Service.  Logistics shall use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize the interruption of service at the Terminal and the Tankage and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the impact of any such interruption on Lion so as to not unnecessarily interfere with any of Lion’s purchase or sale commitments or to otherwise accommodate, to the extent reasonably practicable, other commercial or market considerations that Lion deems relevant.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Logistics agrees that it will use reasonable commercial efforts, consistent with good industry standards and practices, to complete (and to cause any third parties to complete) any non-emergency maintenance undertaken by Logistics as promptly as reasonably practicable.  Logistics shall inform Lion at least 60 days in advance (or promptly, in the case of an unplanned interruption) of any anticipated partial or complete interruption of service of the Terminal or the Tankage, including relevant information about the nature, extent, cause and expected duration of the interruption and the actions Logistics is taking to resume full operations, provided that Logistics shall not have any liability for any failure to notify, or delay in notifying, Lion of any such matters except to the extent Lion has been materially damaged by such failure or delay.  Logistics shall provide Lion with an initial estimate of the period of any non-emergency maintenance and shall regularly update Lion as to the progress of such maintenance.  If Logistics 

- 22 -




determines that the expected completion date for maintenance has or is likely to change by 30 days or more, it shall promptly notify Lion of such determination.
(b)    Maintenance and Repair Standards.  Subject to interruptions for Force Majeure events pursuant to Section 5 and for routine repair and maintenance consistent with industry standards, Logistics shall maintain (i) the Terminal with sufficient aggregate capacity to throughput a volume of Materials at least equal to the Minimum Throughput Capacity and (ii) the Tankage with a capacity sufficient to store a volume of Materials at least equal to the applicable Minimum Storage Capacity.  Recalibration or strapping of the Tankage will be performed from time to time by Logistics upon the reasonable request of Lion or otherwise in accordance with generally accepted industry standards.  Logistics’ obligations may be temporarily suspended during the occurrence of, and for the entire duration of, a Force Majeure event or interruptions for routine repair and maintenance consistent with industry standards that prevent Logistics from providing the Minimum Throughput Capacity or storing the applicable Minimum Storage Capacity.  To the extent Lion is prevented for 30 or more days in any Contract Year from throughputting volumes equal to the full Minimum Throughput Capacity or storing volumes equal to the applicable Minimum Storage Capacity for reasons of Force Majeure or other interruption of service affecting the facilities or assets of Logistics (including any reduction in available storage capacity pursuant to Section 2(k)), then, as applicable, (i) Lion’s Minimum Throughput Commitment shall be proportionately reduced to the extent of the difference between the Minimum Throughput Capacity and the amount that Logistics can effectively throughput at the Terminal (prorated for the portion of the Contract Quarter during which the Minimum Throughput Capacity was unavailable), regardless of whether Actual Throughput prior to the reduction was below the Minimum Throughput Commitment, and/or (ii) the Group A Storage Fee shall be reduced by the amount of $0.658, the Group B Storage Fee shall be reduced by the amount of $0.156, and/or the Group C Storage Fee shall be reduced by the amount of $0.964 (which amounts shall be adjusted in accordance with the adjustments to the Storage Fees provided for in Sections 2(d) and (i) above, if applicable, and prorated for the portion of the applicable month during which such storage was unavailable) for each barrel less than the applicable Minimum Storage Capacity that Logistics is unable to store at the Tankage regardless of whether Lion actually used such storage capacity.  At such time as Logistics is capable of throughputting volumes equal to the full Minimum Throughput Commitment or storing volumes equal to the applicable Minimum Storage Capacity, as applicable, Lion’s obligation to throughput the full Minimum Throughput Commitment and to pay the full Storage Fees shall be restored.  If for any reason, including, without limitation, a Force Majeure event, the throughput of the Terminal or storage capacity of the Tankage should fall below the Minimum Throughput Capacity or the Minimum Storage Capacity, respectively, then with due diligence and dispatch, Logistics shall make repairs to the Terminal and/or the Tankage to restore the capacity of the Terminal to that required for throughput of the Minimum Throughput Commitment and/or Tankage to that required for storing of the applicable Minimum Storage Capacity (“Restoration”).  Except as provided below in Section 10(c), all of such Restoration shall be at Logistics’ cost and expense, unless the damage creating the need for such repairs was caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Lion, its employees, agents or customers.
(c)    Capacity Resolution.  In the event of the failure of Logistics to maintain (i) the Terminal with sufficient capacity to throughput the Minimum Throughput Capacity or (ii) the 

- 23 -




Tankage with a capacity sufficient to store a volume of Materials at least equal to the applicable Minimum Storage Capacity, then either Party shall have the right to call a meeting between executives of both Parties by providing at least two Business Days’ advance written notice.  Any such meeting shall be held at a mutually agreeable location and attended by executives of both Parties each having sufficient authority to commit his or her respective Party to a Capacity Resolution (hereinafter defined).  At the meeting, the Parties will negotiate in good faith with the objective of reaching a joint resolution for the Restoration which will, among other things, specify steps to be taken by Logistics to fully accomplish the Restoration and the deadlines by which the Restoration must be completed (the “Capacity Resolution”).  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Capacity Resolution shall set forth an agreed upon time schedule for the Restoration activities.  Such time schedule shall be reasonable under the circumstances, consistent with applicable industry standards and shall take into consideration Logistic’ economic considerations relating to costs of the repairs and Lion’s requirements concerning its refining and marketing operations.  Logistics shall use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to provide throughput and storage of Lion’s Materials, to the extent the Terminal and Tankage have the capability of doing so, during the period before Restoration is completed.  In the event that Lion’s economic considerations justify incurring additional costs to complete the Restoration in a more expedited manner than the time schedule determined in accordance with the preceding sentence, Lion may require Logistics to expedite the Restoration to the extent reasonably possible, subject to Lion’s payment, in advance, of the estimated incremental costs to be incurred as a result of the expedited time schedule.  In the event the Parties agree to an expedited Restoration plan wherein Lion agrees to fund a portion of the Restoration cost, then neither Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 5(b) above so long as such Restoration is completed with due diligence and dispatch, and Lion shall pay its portion of the Restoration cost to Logistics in advance based on a good faith estimate based on reasonable engineering standards.  Upon completion, Lion shall pay the difference between the actual portion of Restoration costs to be paid by Lion pursuant to this Section 10(c) and the estimated amount paid under the preceding sentence within 30 days after receipt of Logistics’ invoice therefor, or, if appropriate, Logistics shall pay Lion the excess of the estimate paid by Lion over Logistics’ actual costs as previously described within 30 days after completion of the Restoration.
(d)    Lion shall not deliver to the Terminal or the Tankage any Materials which: (a) would in any way be injurious to the Terminal or the Tankage; (b) may not be lawfully stored or throughput in such facilities; or (c) would render such facilities unfit for proper storage or handling of similar Materials.  Any and all Materials that leave the Terminal or the Tankage shall meet all relevant ASTM, EPA, federal and state specifications, and shall not leave the Terminal or the Tankage in the form of a sub-octane grade product.
(e)    Logistics agrees that the Terminal and all Tankage used to provide services hereunder shall be in a condition generally acceptable within the industry and capable of storing the Materials without contaminating them.  Logistics will avoid any contamination of one Material by another or any degradation of the quality of any Material that would impact Lion’s ability to market or sell such Material in a timely fashion.  In addition, Logistics will endeavor to ensure that no Materials shall be contaminated with scale or other materials, chemicals, water or any other impurities.  In lieu of any obligation to indemnify the Lion Indemnitees pursuant to Section 19(a) with respect to any such contamination, Logistics may, at its sole option, require Lion, at Logistics’ sole expense, 

- 24 -




to reprocess or otherwise treat any such contaminated Materials to restore those Materials to salable condition.

(g)    No Inducement.  No promise, representation or inducement has been made by any of the Parties that is not embodied in this Agreement, and none of the Parties shall be bound by or liable for any alleged representation, promise or inducement not so set forth.
(h)    Time of the Essence.  Time is of the essence with respect to all aspects of each Party’s performance of any obligations under this Agreement.
(i)    No Third Party Beneficiaries.  It is expressly understood that the provisions of this Agreement do not impart enforceable rights in anyone who is not a Party or successor or permitted assignee of a Party other than J. Aron’s rights under Section 22.
(j)    Choice of Law.  This Agreement shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of Texas, excluding any conflicts-of-law rule or principle that might refer the construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the laws of another state.
(k)    Further Assurances.  In connection with this Agreement and all transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each signatory Party hereto agrees to execute and deliver such additional documents and instruments and to perform such additional acts as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate, carry out and perform all of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement and all such transactions.
(l)    Survival.  All audit rights, payment, confidentiality and indemnification obligations and obligations under this Agreement shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
(m)    Arbitration Provision.  Any and all Disputes shall 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).  If there is any inconsistency between this Section 21(m) and the Commercial Arbitration Rules or the Federal Arbitration Act, the terms of this Section 21(m) will control the rights and obligations of the Parties.  Arbitration must be initiated within the time limits set forth in this Agreement, or if no such limits apply, then within a reasonable time or the time period allowed by the applicable statute of limitations.  Arbitration may be initiated by a Party (“Claimant”) serving written notice on the other Party (“Respondent”) that the Claimant elects to refer the Dispute to binding arbitration.  Claimant’s notice initiating binding arbitration must identify the arbitrator Claimant has appointed.  The Respondent shall respond to Claimant within 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 30 days after the second arbitrator has been appointed.  The Claimant will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by or for it, and the Respondent will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by or for it.  The costs of petitioning for the appointment of an arbitrator, if any, shall be paid by Respondent.  The Claimant and Respondent will each pay one-half of the compensation and expenses of the third arbitrator.  All arbitrators must (i) be neutral parties who have never been officers, directors or employees of Lion, Logistics or any of their Affiliates and (ii) have not less than seven years of experience in the energy 

- 37 -




industry.  The hearing will be conducted in Houston, Texas and commence within 30 days after the selection of the third arbitrator.  Lion, Logistics 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 Parties hereto.  The arbitrators shall have no right to grant or award Special Damages.
(n)    Confidentiality.
(i)    Obligations.  Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to retain the other Party’s Confidential Information in confidence and not disclose the same to any third party nor use the same, except as authorized by the disclosing Party in writing or as expressly permitted in this Section 21(n).  Each Party further agrees to take the same care with the other Party’s Confidential Information as it does with its own, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care.
(ii)    Required Disclosure.  Notwithstanding Section 21(n)(i) above, if the receiving Party becomes legally compelled to disclose the Confidential Information by a court, Governmental Authority or Applicable Law, including the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or is required to disclose pursuant to the rules and regulations of any national securities exchange upon which the receiving Party or its parent entity is listed, any of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, the receiving Party shall promptly advise the disclosing Party of such requirement to disclose Confidential Information as soon as the receiving Party becomes aware that such a requirement to disclose might become effective, in order that, where possible, the disclosing Party may seek a protective order or such other remedy as the disclosing Party may consider appropriate in the circumstances.  The receiving Party shall disclose only that portion of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information that it is required to disclose and shall cooperate with the disclosing Party in allowing the disclosing Party to obtain such protective order or other relief.
(iii)    Return of Information.  Upon written request by the disclosing Party, all of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in whatever form shall be returned to the disclosing Party upon termination of this Agreement or destroyed with destruction certified by the receiving Party, without the receiving Party retaining copies thereof except that one copy of all such Confidential Information may be retained by a Party’s legal department solely to the extent that such Party is required to keep a copy of such Confidential Information pursuant to Applicable Law, and the receiving Party shall be entitled to retain any Confidential Information in the electronic form or stored on automatic computer back-up archiving systems during the period such backup or archived materials are retained under such Party’s customary procedures and policies; provided, however, that any Confidential Information retained by the receiving Party shall be maintained subject to confidentiality pursuant to the terms of this Section 21(n), and such archived or back-up Confidential Information shall not be accessed except as required by Applicable Law.
(iv)    Receiving Party Personnel.  The receiving Party will limit access to the Confidential Information of the disclosing Party to those of its employees, attorneys and 

- 38 -




contractors that have a need to know such information in order for the receiving Party to exercise or perform its rights and obligations under this Agreement (the “Receiving Party Personnel”).  The Receiving Party Personnel who have access to any Confidential Information of the disclosing Party will be made aware of the confidentiality provision of this Agreement, and will be required to abide by the terms thereof.  Any third party contractors that are given access to Confidential Information of a disclosing Party pursuant to the terms hereof shall be required to sign a written agreement pursuant to which such Receiving Party Personnel agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, which written agreement will expressly state that it is enforceable against such Receiving Party Personnel by the disclosing Party.
(v)    Survival.  The obligation of confidentiality under this Section 21(n) shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of two years.
(o)    Audit and Inspection.  During the Term, Lion and its duly authorized agents and/or representatives, upon reasonable notice and during normal working hours, shall have access to the accounting records and other documents maintained by Logistics, or any of Logistics’ contractors and agents, which relate to this Agreement, and shall have the right to audit such records at any reasonable time or times during the Term of this Agreement and for a period of up to two years after termination of this Agreement.  Claims as to shortage in quantity or defects in quality shall be made by written notice within 30 days after the delivery in question or shall be deemed to have been waived.  The right to inspect or audit such records shall survive termination of this Agreement for a period of two years following the end of the Term.  Logistics shall preserve, and shall cause all contractors or agents to preserve, all of the aforesaid documents for a period of at least two years from the end of the Term.
Section 22.    J. Aron.
(a)    Designated Assignment.  For a period from and including the Effective Date to the Expiration Date (the “Designation Period”), Lion hereby assigns to J. Aron all of Lion’s rights to use, hold Materials in, and transport Materials through, the Tankage and the Terminal pursuant to this Agreement, subject to additional terms and conditions of this Section 22.  During the Designation Period, Logistics shall note in their records and account separately for J.

Aron shall notify Logistics in writing that ownership in such J. Aron Materials has been transferred from J. Aron to Lion, it being the intention that Logistics shall not be required to recognize any other transfers of ownership of any J. Aron Materials (other than transfers from J. Aron to Lion) unless such transfer and recognition are agreed to in writing by Logistics in its reasonable discretion.  Lion shall act as J. Aron’s sole agent for all purposes of this Agreement, and Logistics shall be entitled to follow Lion’s instructions with respect to any J. Aron Materials that are transported, stored or handled by Logistics pursuant to this Agreement unless and until Logistics is notified by J. Aron in writing that Lion is no longer authorized to act as J. Aron’s agent, in which case Logistics’ shall thereafter follow the instructions of J. Aron (or such other agent as J. Aron may appoint) with respect to all J. Aron Materials that are transported, stored or handled

Aron Materials are located in the Tankage or the Terminal.  During any Designation Period, Logistics shall send all inventory and other reports, all other documentation described in or required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement and all notices delivered pursuant to this Agreement to J. Aron at the address provided below, with copies to Lion:  J.

(c)    All Provisions in Effect.  During any Designation Period, all provisions of this Agreement, as amended or adjusted by this Section 22, shall be in full force and effect with respect to J. Aron and the J. Aron Materials as if J. Aron were Party hereto in place of Lion, subject however to the following:

Aron Materials and (ii) Section 19 with respect to Liabilities directly or indirectly arising out of the activities of J. Aron under this Agreement; provided that if, at any time, J. Aron elects for any reason to make any payment to Logistics in respect of any amount owing by Lion to Logistics hereunder, such payment shall not constitute, and shall not be deemed to result in, the assumption by J. Aron of any payment or other obligations of Lion under this Agreement;
(ii)    in no event shall J. Aron have any responsibility for the operations or maintenance of the Tankage and the Terminal or the handling of any Materials held in or transported through the Tankage and the Terminal or otherwise be deemed to have assumed any non-monetary obligations of Lion for such operations, maintenance or handling under this Agreement, all of which responsibilities and obligations shall remain exclusively responsibilities and obligations of Logistics and Lion, subject to any allocation of such responsibilities and obligations between such parties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;

Aron shall have no liability or obligation for, (1) meeting any Minimum Throughput Commitment under Section 2(b), (2) any Shortfall Payments under Section 2(e), (3) any amounts payable under Section 2(h) (other than Throughput Fees for Actual Throughput of J. Aron Materials to the extent due under Section 2(c)), (4) any Deficiency Payments under Section 9 (other than with respect to Throughput Fees for Actual Throughput of J. Aron Materials to the extent due under Section 2(c)), or (5) any payment obligations in connection with a Capacity Resolution under Section 10(c), and Logistics shall invoice Lion directly for such amounts or obligations;
(iv)    without limiting the foregoing, the following rights and benefits will run in favor of J. Aron: (i) any rights with respect to custody and title to the J. Aron Materials 

- 40 -




subject to this Agreement, (ii) any obligations of Logistics with respect to the condition and maintenance of Tankage and the Terminal, (iii) any inspection and access rights and (iv) any rights relating to measurements and volume determinations, in all cases regardless of whether any specific provision in this Agreements makes any reference to Lion’s assignee or the assignability of the right or benefit provided for in such provision;
(v)    during the Designation Period, J. Aron and its successors and assigns shall be included as additional insured parties and loss payees with respect to the Materials under all insurance policies required to be maintained by Logistics under Section 15 and endorsements confirming the foregoing shall be provided to J. Aron from time to time prior to the expiration or termination of the Designation Period upon J. Aron’s reasonable request;
(vi)    during the Designation Period, Lion shall not agree to any waivers or consents hereunder, or amendments or modifications hereto, in each case, that would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect J. Aron’s rights hereunder, without the prior express written agreement or consent of J. Aron; and
(vii)    to confirm its ownership of and rights with respect to all Materials in the Tankage and the Terminal, Logistics and Lion agree that during the Designation Period (1) J.

Aron) and take such further actions as J. Aron may reasonably request, including the execution and filing in the relevant real estate records of memoranda of access or similar documents.
(d)    J. Aron shall reasonably cooperate with Logistics and Lion in good faith in connection with any its inspection and audit rights hereunder and the resolution of any disputes between Logistics and Lion hereunder.

(f)    J. Aron may, without any other party’s consent, assign and delegate all of J. Aron’s rights and obligations under this Section 22 to (i) any Affiliate of J. Aron, provided that the obligations of such Affiliate hereunder are guaranteed by The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. or (ii) any non-Affiliate Person that succeeds to all or substantially all of its assets and business and assumes J. Aron’s obligations hereunder, whether by contract, operation of law or otherwise, provided that the creditworthiness of such successor entity is equal or superior to the creditworthiness of J. Aron (taking into account any credit support for J. Aron) immediately prior to such assignment, which determination shall be made by J. Aron in good faith.  Any other assignment by J. Aron shall require the consent of Lion and Logistics.

- 41 -
