Person to participate in the distribution (within the meaning of the Securities Act) of the Exchange Securities in violation of the provisions of the Securities Act, (iii) it is not an “affiliate” (within the meaning of Rule 405 under

As soon as practicable after the last Exchange Date, the Calumet Parties shall: 

 

	(i)	accept for exchange Registrable Securities or portions thereof validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Exchange Offer; and 


 

	(ii)	deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation all Registrable Securities or portions thereof so accepted for exchange by the Issuers and issue, and cause the Trustee to promptly authenticate and
deliver to each Holder, Exchange Securities equal in principal amount to the principal amount of the Registrable Securities surrendered by such Holder. 


The Calumet Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to complete the Exchange Offer as provided above and shall comply with the
applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and other applicable laws and regulations in connection with the Exchange Offer. The Exchange Offer shall not be subject to any conditions, other than that the Exchange Offer does not
violate any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the Staff. 
 (b) In the event that (i) the Calumet Parties determine that
the Exchange Offer Registration provided for in Section 2(a) above is not available or may not be completed as soon as practicable after the last Exchange Date because it would violate any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the
Staff, (ii) the Exchange Offer is not for any other reason completed by April 29, 2015, or (iii) any Initial Purchaser shall so request (a “Shelf Request”) in connection with any offer or sale of Registrable
Securities that are ineligible to be exchanged in the Exchange Offer, the Calumet Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause to be filed as soon as practicable after such determination, date or Shelf Request, as the case may be, a
Shelf Registration Statement providing for the sale of all the Registrable Securities by the Holders thereof and to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC. 

In the event that the Calumet Parties are required to file a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to clause (iii) of the preceding
sentence, the Calumet Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to file and have declared effective by the SEC both an Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) with respect to all Registrable Securities and a Shelf
Registration Statement (which may be a combined Registration Statement with the Exchange Offer Registration Statement) with respect to offers and sales of Registrable Securities held by the Initial Purchasers after completion of the Exchange Offer.


  
 6 








 The Calumet Parties agree to use their reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration
Statement continuously effective for one year or such shorter period that will terminate when all the Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement (the “Shelf
Effectiveness Period”). The Calumet Parties further agree to supplement or amend the Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by
the Calumet Parties for such Shelf Registration Statement or by the Securities Act or by any other rules and regulations thereunder for shelf registration or if reasonably requested by a Holder of Registrable Securities with respect to information
relating to such Holder, and to use their reasonable best efforts to cause any such amendment to be declared effective, if required, and such Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus to become usable as soon as thereafter practicable. The Calumet
Parties agree to furnish to the Holders of Registrable Securities copies of any such supplement or amendment promptly after its being used or filed with the SEC. 

(c) The Calumet Parties shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any registration pursuant to Section 2(a) or
Section 2(b) hereof. Each Holder shall pay all underwriting discounts and commissions, brokerage commissions and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale or disposition of such Holder’s Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf
Registration Statement. 
 (d) An Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2(a) or a Shelf Registration Statement
pursuant to Section 2(b) hereof will not be deemed to have become effective unless it has been declared effective by the SEC. 
 In the
event that (i) either the Exchange Offer is not completed or the Shelf Registration Statement, if required pursuant to Section 2(b)(i) or 2(b)(ii) hereof, is not declared effective on or prior to April 29, 2015 (the “Target
Registration Date”), or (ii) the Company receives a Shelf Request pursuant to Section 2(b)(iii), and the Shelf Registration Statement required to be filed thereby is not declared effective by the SEC by the later of
(x) January 29, 2015 or (y) 90 days after the delivery of such Shelf Request (such later date, the “Shelf Additional Interest Date”), then the interest rate on the Registrable Securities will be increased by
(A) 0.25% per annum for the first 90-day period immediately following the Target Registration Date or the Shelf Additional Interest Date, as applicable, and (B) an additional 0.25% per annum with respect to each subsequent 90-day
period, in each case until the Exchange Offer is completed or the Shelf Registration Statement, if required hereby, is declared effective by the SEC or the Securities no longer qualify as Registrable Securities, up to a maximum of 1.00% per
annum of additional interest. 
 If the Shelf Registration Statement, if required hereby, has been declared effective by the SEC and
thereafter either ceases to be effective or the Prospectus contained therein ceases to be usable at any time during the Shelf Effectiveness Period, and such failure to remain effective or usable exists for more than 45 days (whether or not
consecutive) in any 12-month period, then the interest rate on the Registrable Securities will be increased by (i) 0.25% per annum 

  
 7 








 
commencing on the 45th day in such 12-month period and (ii) an additional 0.25% per annum with respect to each subsequent 90-day period (whether or not consecutive) and ending on such
date that the Shelf Registration Statement has again been declared effective by the SEC or the Prospectus again becomes usable, up to a maximum of 1.00% per annum of additional interest. 

(e) Any additional interest paid in accordance with this Section 2 shall be liquidated damages and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy
available to Holders due a failure by the Calumet Parties to comply with their obligations under Section 2(a) and Section 2(b). 

3. Registration Procedures. (a) In connection with their obligations pursuant to Section 2(a) and Section 2(b) hereof,

for such Holders and to each Underwriter of an Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities, if any, without charge, as many copies of each Prospectus or preliminary prospectus, and any amendment or supplement thereto, as such Holder, counsel or
Underwriter may reasonably request in order to facilitate the sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities thereunder; and the Calumet Parties consent to the use of such Prospectus, preliminary prospectus and any amendment or supplement
thereto in accordance with applicable law by each of the Holders of Registrable Securities and any such Underwriters in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by and in the manner described in such Prospectus,
preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in accordance with applicable law; 
 (iv) use their reasonable best efforts

other acts and things that may 

  
 8 








 
be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable each Holder to complete the disposition in each such jurisdiction of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder; provided that none of
the Calumet Parties shall be required to (1) qualify as a foreign corporation or other entity or as a dealer in securities in any such jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to so qualify, (2) file any general consent to
service of process in any such jurisdiction or (3) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction if it is not so subject;

Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) under the Securities Act, (4) if, between the applicable effective date of a Shelf Registration Statement and the closing of any sale of Registrable
Securities covered thereby, the representations and warranties of any of the Calumet Parties contained in any underwriting agreement, securities sales agreement or other similar agreement, if any, relating to an offering of such Registrable
Securities cease to be true and correct in all material respects or if any of the Calumet Parties receives any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the
initiation of any proceeding for such purpose, (5) of the happening of any event during the period a Registration Statement is effective that makes such Registration Statement or the related Prospectus contain an untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or that requires the making of any changes in such Registration Statement or Prospectus in
order to make the statements therein not misleading and (6) of any determination by any of the Calumet Parties that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus would be appropriate;

(ix) in the case of a Shelf Registration, upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 3(a)(v)(5) hereof, use their
reasonable best efforts to prepare and file with the SEC a supplement or post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement or the related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so
that, as thereafter delivered (or, to the extent permitted by law, made available) to purchasers of the Registrable Securities, such Prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to
make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and the Calumet Parties shall notify the Holders of Registrable Securities to suspend use of the Prospectus as promptly as practicable after
the occurrence of such an event, and such Holders hereby agree to suspend use of the Prospectus until the Calumet Parties have amended or supplemented the Prospectus to correct such misstatement or omission;

amendment or supplement to a Prospectus or of any document that is to be incorporated by reference into a Registration Statement or a Prospectus after initial filing of a Registration Statement, provide copies of such document to the Initial

Purchasers or their counsel (and, in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Holders of Registrable Securities or their counsel) available for discussion of such document; and the Calumet Parties shall not, at any time after initial filing
of a Registration Statement, use or file any Prospectus, any amendment of or supplement to a Registration Statement or a Prospectus, or any document that is to be incorporated by reference into a Registration Statement or a Prospectus, of which the
Initial Purchasers and their counsel (and, in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Holders of Registrable Securities and their counsel) shall not have previously been advised and furnished a copy or to which the Initial Purchasers or
their counsel (and, in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, the Holders of Registrable Securities or their counsel) shall reasonably object; provided, that this clause shall not apply to any filing by the Partnership of any Annual Report on
Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or Current Report on Form 8-K with respect to matters unrelated to the Securities and the offering or exchange therefor; 

(xi) obtain a CUSIP number for all Exchange Securities or Registrable Securities, as the case may be, not later than the initial effective

filed with the SEC to enable the Indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner; 
 (xiii) in the case of a Shelf Registration, make
available for inspection by a representative (an “Inspector”) of the Holders of the Registrable Securities, any Underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement, any attorneys and
accountants designated by a majority of the Holders of Registrable Securities to be included in such Shelf Registration and any attorneys and accountants designated by such Underwriter, at reasonable times and in a reasonable manner, all pertinent
financial and other records, documents and properties of the Calumet Parties and their subsidiaries, and cause the respective officers, directors and employees of the Calumet Parties to supply all information reasonably requested by any such
Inspector, Underwriter, attorney or accountant in connection with a Shelf Registration Statement, in each case as is customary for “due diligence” examinations in the context of underwritten offerings; provided that if any such
information is identified by the Calumet Parties as being confidential or proprietary, each Person receiving such information shall take such actions as are reasonably necessary to protect the confidentiality of such information to the extent such
action is otherwise not inconsistent with, an impairment of or in derogation of the rights and interests of any Inspector, Holder or Underwriter; 

(xiv) in the case of a Shelf Registration, use their reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities to be listed on any
securities exchange or any automated quotation system on which similar securities issued or guaranteed by the Calumet Parties are then listed if requested by the Majority Holders, to the extent such Registrable Securities satisfy applicable listing
requirements; 
 (xv) if reasonably requested by any Holder of Registrable Securities covered by a Shelf Registration Statement, promptly
include in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information with respect to such Holder as such Holder reasonably requests to be included therein and make all required filings of such Prospectus supplement or such post-effective
amendment as soon as the Calumet Parties have received notification of the matters to be so included in such filing; 
 (xvi) in the case of
a Shelf Registration, enter into such customary agreements and take all such other actions in connection therewith (including those requested by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf

warranties to the Holders and any Underwriters of such Registrable Securities with respect to the business of the Calumet Parties and their subsidiaries and the Registration Statement, Prospectus and documents incorporated by reference or deemed
incorporated by reference, if any, in each case, in form, substance and scope as are customarily made by issuers to underwriters in underwritten offerings and confirm the same if and when requested, (2) obtain opinions of counsel to the Calumet
Parties (which counsel and opinions, in form, scope and substance, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Holders and such Underwriters and their respective counsel) addressed to each selling Holder (to the extent such Holder has advised the
Issuers that such Holder may have a “due diligence” defense under Section 11 of the 

  
 11 








 
Securities Act) and Underwriter of Registrable Securities, covering the matters customarily covered in opinions requested in underwritten offerings, (3) obtain “comfort” letters
from the independent registered public accounting firm of the Calumet Parties (and, if necessary, any other certified public accountant of any subsidiary of the Calumet Parties, or of any business acquired by the Calumet Parties for which financial
statements and financial data are or are required to be included in the Registration Statement) addressed to each selling Holder (to the extent permitted by applicable professional standards) and Underwriter of Registrable Securities, such letters
to be in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in “comfort” letters in connection with underwritten offerings, including but not limited to financial information contained in any preliminary prospectus or
Prospectus and (4) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Registrable Securities being sold or the Underwriters, and which are customarily delivered in
underwritten offerings, to evidence the continued validity of the representations and warranties of the Calumet Parties made pursuant to clause (1) above and to evidence compliance with any customary conditions contained in an underwriting
agreement; and 
 (xvii) so long as any Registrable Securities remain outstanding, cause each Additional Guarantor upon the creation or
acquisition by the Issuers of such Additional Guarantor, to execute a joinder agreement in the form attached hereto as Annex A and to deliver such joinder agreement, together with an opinion of counsel as to the enforceability thereof against such
entity, to the Initial Purchasers no later than five Business Days following the execution thereof. 
 (b) In the case of a Shelf
Registration Statement, the Issuers may require each Holder of Registrable Securities to furnish to the Issuers such information regarding such Holder and the proposed disposition by such Holder of such Registrable Securities as the Calumet Parties
may from time to time reasonably request in writing. 
 (c) In the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, each Holder of Registrable
Securities covered in such Shelf Registration Statement agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Calumet Parties of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(a)(v)(3) or 3(a)(v)(5) hereof, such Holder will forthwith
discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 3(a)(ix) hereof and, if so directed
by the Calumet Parties, such Holder will deliver to the Calumet Parties all copies in its possession, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Securities that is current at
the time of receipt of such notice. 
 (d) If the Calumet Parties shall give any notice to suspend the disposition of Registrable Securities
pursuant to a Registration Statement, the Calumet Parties shall extend the period during which such Registration Statement shall be maintained effective pursuant to this Agreement by the number of days during the period from and including the date
of the giving of such notice to and including the date when the Holders of such Registrable Securities shall have received copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus necessary to resume such dispositions. The Calumet Parties may give any such
notice only twice during any 395-day period and any such suspensions shall not exceed 30 days for each suspension and there shall not be more than two suspensions in effect during any 395-day period. 

  
 12 








 (e) The Holders of Registrable Securities covered by a Shelf Registration Statement who desire to
do so may sell such Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Offering. In any such Underwritten Offering, the investment bank or investment banks and manager or managers (each an “Underwriter”) that will administer the offering
will be selected by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Registrable Securities included in such offering; provided that, with respect to any Underwriter other than Merrill Lynch, such selections shall be subject to the approval of
the Partnership, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
 4. Participation of Broker-Dealers in Exchange Offer.
(a) The Staff has taken the position that any broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account in the Exchange Offer in exchange for Securities that were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making or other
trading activities (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”) may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and must deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection
with any resale of such Exchange Securities. 
 The Calumet Parties understand that it is the Staff’s position that if the Prospectus
contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement includes a plan of distribution containing a statement to the above effect and the means by which Participating Broker-Dealers may resell the Exchange Securities, without naming the
Participating Broker-Dealers or specifying the amount of Exchange Securities owned by them, such Prospectus may be delivered by Participating Broker-Dealers (or, to the extent permitted by law, made available to purchasers) to satisfy their
prospectus delivery obligation under the Securities Act in connection with resales of Exchange Securities for their own accounts, so long as the Prospectus otherwise meets the requirements of the Securities Act. 

(b) In light of the above, and notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement, the Calumet Parties agree to amend or supplement the
Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement for a period of up to 180 days after the last Exchange Date (as such period may be extended pursuant to Section 3(d) of this Agreement), in order to expedite or facilitate the
disposition of any Exchange Securities by Participating Broker-Dealers consistent with the positions of the Staff recited in Section 4(a) above. The Calumet Parties further agree that Participating Broker-Dealers shall be authorized to deliver
such Prospectus (or, to the extent permitted by law, make available) during such period in connection with the resales contemplated by this Section 4. 

(c) The Initial Purchasers shall have no liability to any of the Calumet Parties or any Holder with respect to any request that they may make
pursuant to Section 4(b) above. 
 5. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) Each of the Calumet Parties, jointly and
severally, agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser and each Holder, their respective affiliates, directors and officers and each Person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser or any Holder within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with any suit,
action or proceeding or any claim asserted, as such fees and expenses are incurred), joint or several, that arise out of, or are based upon, (1) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material


  
 13 








 
fact contained in any Registration Statement or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein not misleading, or (2) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Prospectus, any free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act (“Free Writing
Prospectus”) used in violation of this Agreement or any “issuer information” (“Issuer Information”) filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, or any omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities
arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to any Initial Purchaser or information relating to any Holder furnished
to the Issuers in writing through Merrill Lynch or any selling Holder, respectively, expressly for use therein. In connection with any Underwritten Offering permitted by Section 3, the Calumet Parties, jointly and severally, will also indemnify
the Underwriters, if any, selling brokers, dealers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, their respective affiliates and each Person who controls such Persons (within the meaning of the Securities Act and
the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders, if requested in connection with any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, any Free Writing Prospectus or any Issuer Information. 

(b) Each Holder agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Calumet Parties, the Initial Purchasers and the other
selling Holders, the directors of the Calumet Parties, each officer of the Calumet Parties who signed the Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls the Calumet Parties, any Initial Purchaser and any other selling Holder within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraph (a) above, but only with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of,
or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to such Holder furnished to the Calumet Parties in writing by such Holder expressly for
use in any Registration Statement and any Prospectus. 
 (c) If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory
investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any Person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) above, such Person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall
promptly notify the Person against whom such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it
may have under this Section 5 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to notify the
Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under this Section 5. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have
notified the Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person and any others entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 5
that the Indemnifying Person may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding, 

  
 14 








 
as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified
Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified
Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any
such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between
them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local
counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm (x) for any Initial Purchaser, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control Persons of such
Initial Purchaser shall be designated in writing by Merrill Lynch, (y) for any Holder, its directors and officers and any control Persons of such Holder shall be designated in writing by the Majority Holders and (z) in all other cases
shall be designated in writing by the Partnership. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the
plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have
requested that an Indemnifying Person reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written
consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such request and (ii) the Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request
prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been
a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (A) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified
Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (B) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person. 

(d) If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b) above is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in
respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Calumet Parties from the offering of the Securities and the Exchange
Securities, on the one hand, and by the Holders from receiving Securities or Exchange Securities registered under the Securities Act, on the other hand, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law,
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Calumet Parties on the one hand and the Holders on the other in


  
 15 








 
connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Calumet
Parties on the one hand and the Holders on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Calumet Parties or by the Holders and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 

(e) The Calumet Parties and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5 were
determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (d)
above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other
expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5, in no event shall a Holder be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the
total price at which the Securities or Exchange Securities sold by such Holder exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders’
obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 5 are several and not joint. 
 (f) The remedies provided for in this Section 5
are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies that may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity. 

(g) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 5 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless
of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers or any Holder or any Person controlling any Initial Purchaser or any Holder, or by or on behalf of the Calumet Parties or the
officers or directors of or any Person controlling any of the Calumet Parties, (iii) acceptance of any of the Exchange Securities and (iv) any sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement. 

6. General. 
 (a) No
Inconsistent Agreements. The Calumet Parties represent, warrant and agree that (i) the rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of any other
outstanding securities issued or guaranteed by any of the Calumet Parties under any other agreement and (ii) none of the Calumet Parties has entered into, or on or after the date of this Agreement will enter into, any agreement that is
inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of Registrable Securities in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. 

  
 16 








 (b) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of
this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given unless the Calumet Parties have obtained the written consent of Holders of at least a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Registrable Securities affected by such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent; provided that no amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent to any departure from the
provisions of Section 5 hereof shall be effective as against any Holder of Registrable Securities unless consented to in writing by such Holder. Any amendments, modifications, supplements, waivers or consents pursuant to this Section 6(b)
shall be by a writing executed by each of the parties hereto. 
 (c) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or
permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, registered first-class mail, telex, telecopier, or any courier guaranteeing overnight delivery (i) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such Holder to the Issuers by
means of a notice given in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(c), which address initially is, with respect to the Initial Purchasers, the address set forth in the Purchase Agreement; (ii) if to the Calumet Parties, initially
at the Issuers’ address set forth in the Purchase Agreement and thereafter at such other address, notice of which is given in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(c); and (iii) to such other persons at their respective
addresses as provided in the Purchase Agreement and thereafter at such other address, notice of which is given in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(c). All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given:
at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; five Business Days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, if mailed; when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; and on the next Business Day if timely delivered to an air courier
guaranteeing overnight delivery. Copies of all such notices, demands or other communications shall be concurrently delivered by the Person giving the same to the Trustee, at the address specified in the Indenture. 

(d) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors, assigns and transferees of
each of the parties, including, without limitation and without the need for an express assignment, subsequent Holders; provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to permit any assignment, transfer or other disposition of Registrable
Securities in violation of the terms of the Purchase Agreement or the Indenture. If any transferee of any Holder shall acquire Registrable Securities in any manner, whether by operation of law or otherwise, such Registrable Securities shall be held
subject to all the terms of this Agreement, and by taking and holding such Registrable Securities such Person shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to perform all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement and such Person
shall be entitled to receive the benefits hereof. The Initial Purchasers (in their capacity as Initial Purchasers) shall have no liability or obligation to the Calumet Parties with respect to any failure by a Holder to comply with, or any breach by
any Holder of, any of the obligations of such Holder under this Agreement. 
 (e) Third Party Beneficiaries. Each Holder shall be a
third party beneficiary to the agreements made hereunder between the Calumet Parties, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and shall have the right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent it deems such
enforcement necessary or advisable to protect its rights or the rights of other Holders hereunder. 

  
 17 








 (f) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the
parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 

(g) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, are not a part of this Agreement and shall not
limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof. 
 (h) Governing Law. This Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising
under or related to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 
 (i) Entire
Agreement; Severability. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all oral statements and prior writings with respect thereto. If any term, provision, covenant or
restriction contained in this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable or against public policy, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions contained herein shall remain in
full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. The Calumet Parties and the Initial Purchasers shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, void or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions
the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, void or unenforceable provisions.
