2.VOLUME COMMITMENT AND SCOPE OF AGREEMENT
(a)    TRMC guarantees that during the Term, (i) TRMC will request that TLO perform Truck Gathering Services each Month for at least the Minimum Volume Commitment each Month of crude petroleum (A) to be received from wellheads, fields, control tank batteries or related collection points in the Williston Basin/Bakken Shale area of Montana and North Dakota and (B) to be delivered to TLO’s proprietary Truck Unloading Facilities, or to other destinations in North Dakota and Montana, whether or not on the High Plains System (C) or to be received and delivered from or to other locations as mutually agreed upon between the parties and set forth in a Trucking Service Order, or, (ii) in the event that TRMC fails to request that TLO do the foregoing, shall remit to TLO the Quarterly Shortfall Payment referred to in Section 7(b) below.    
(b)    TRMC may request pursuant to a Trucking Service Order, as described below, that volumes of crude petroleum in excess of the Minimum Volume Commitment be gathered, transported and delivered by TLO (“Excess Volumes”).  Both the Minimum Volume Commitment and any Excess Volumes gathered and delivered by TLO shall be gathered and transported at the Trucking Rate specified in the applicable Trucking Service Order.
(c)    TRMC may request that volumes of crude petroleum in excess of the Maximum Volume be gathered, transported and delivered by TLO.  In any month where TRMC nominates such incremental volumes, TLO and TRMC shall set forth the agreed applicable rate structure for the incremental volumes in a Trucking Service Order. Upon execution of the applicable Trucking Service Order, TLO shall haul the incremental volumes at the agreed upon rates. If a Trucking Service Order for the incremental rate structure is not agreed upon, TLO will not be obligated to haul the incremental volumes.  
    


4 of 24







(d)    TLO shall provide TRMC with exclusive dedicated use of the Truck Unloading Facilities listed on Schedule I for the unloading of TRMC’s crude petroleum to be delivered into the High Plains System.  
(e)    If THPP or any third party constructs any new pipeline (gathering or otherwise) such that the High Plains System is expanded or extended to any production location (i.e., wellheads, fields or control tank batteries) for volumes of crude petroleum that TRMC is at that time paying TLO to gather by truck, then TRMC will be entitled to a reduction in the Minimum Volume Commitment to account for these new pipeline-gathered volumes, such reduction to be commensurate with the reduced truck gathering volumes and mutually agreed upon by the Parties.  Reductions for volumes transported on the new pipeline extension to the Marathon Connelly Hub are already addressed in the definition of the Minimum Volume Commitment, and there will be no further reduction related to those volumes.
(f)    TRMC may apply any volumes of crude petroleum that are (i) either (A) purchased by third parties from TRMC or (B) purchased by TRMC on a delivered basis to the Truck Unloading Facilities and (ii) transported by TLO under contract with the applicable third party (a “Third Party Customer”) towards TRMC’s Minimum Volume Commitment hereunder, provided however that the third party transportation rate with TLO is equal to the Trucking Rate set forth on the Trucking Service Order.  In the event that such third party transportation rate with TLO is less than the Trucking Rate, TRMC shall pay TLO the difference between such rates.  
      (g)    If a Third Party Customer cancels their trucking contract with TLO due to TLO’s inability to meet such Third Party Customer’s minimum customer service requirements, TRMC may reduce any volumes purchased under that Third Party Customer agreement that were previously trucked by TLO from the Minimum Volume Commitment; provided however, that TRMC shall provide TLO with thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of such intention to reduce the Minimum Volume Commitment so that TLO may attempt to cure any issues with the Third Party Customer and resume performing services with such Third Party Customer.        
3.TERM; HESS AGREEMENT
The initial term of this Agreement shall be for a period of one (1) year following the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”) and will continue thereafter on a month to month basis (the “Extension Term”) with either Party having the right to terminate by giving the other Party at least ninety (90) days’ written notice prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or Extension Term, as applicable.  The Initial Term and the Extension Term, if applicable, thereof shall be referred to herein as the “Term”.  Provided, however, that if Hess Trading Corporation (“Hess”) and TRMC do not renew or otherwise extend the term of their existing agreement (which commenced on July 1, 2015, TS130101 as amended) by June 30, 2017 then, upon TRMC providing TLO with ninety (90) Days prior written notice, the Minimum Volume Commitment shall be decreased to a Monthly average of 10,000 bpd for the remaining Term of this Agreement.
4.INTENTIONALLY OMITTED
5.TRUCKING SERVICE ORDERS; ADJUSTMENTS AND REIMBURSEMENTS FOR CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
(a)In addition to the Minimum Volume Commitment set forth in this Agreement, TLO and TRMC may enter into trucking service orders substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Trucking Service Order”).  Upon a request by TRMC pursuant to this Agreement or as 


5 of 24







deemed necessary or appropriate by TLO in connection with the services to be delivered pursuant hereto, TLO shall generate a Trucking Service Order to set forth the specific terms and conditions for providing the applicable services described therein and the applicable fees to be charged for such services.  No Trucking Service Order shall be effective until fully executed by both TLO and TRMC.  
(b)Items available for inclusion on a Trucking Service Order include, but are not limited to, the following:
(i)any additional or ancillary Truck Gathering Services;
(ii)the amount of requested Excess Volumes;
(iii)the tank usage rate for all Barrels unloaded from trucks into the Truck Unloading Facilities, subject to adjustment as set forth in this Agreement or any Trucking Service Order (the “Tank Usage Rate”);
(iv)trucking rates to be paid by TRMC, including the applicable dispatch fee and minimum rate components thereof (if applicable), subject to adjustment as set forth in this Agreement or any Trucking Service Order (the “Trucking Rate”); and
(v)quarterly rate adjustments in excess of those in Section 5(e) and the annual agreement between the parties upon five third party carriers.
(vi)additional receipt and delivery locations mutually agreed upon between the Parties.
(c)In case of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Trucking Service Order, the terms of the applicable Trucking Service Order shall govern.
(d)The Tank Usage Rate, the Trucking Rate, and the Shortfall Rate shall be adjusted annually on the first day of the Month in which the anniversary date of the Effective Date falls, by a percentage equal to the change in the CPI-U (All Urban Consumers), as reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
(e)TLO shall make the following Monthly adjustments to the rates being charged hereunder or under any Trucking Service Order: 
		
	(i)
	a Monthly per mile adjustment to the mileage rate components of the Trucking Rate to cover any increase in fuel prices (as determined by reference to the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s On-Highway Diesel Prices for the Rocky Mountain Region against a baseline of January 2017) incurred or experienced by TLO in connection with providing Truck Gathering Services under this Agreement; and


		
	(ii)
	a Monthly surcharge on the services provided hereunder to cover TRMC's proportionate share of the increased costs of complying with any new laws or regulations that affect the services provided to TRMC, if after TLO has made commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the effect of such laws or regulations, such new laws or regulations require TLO to make substantial and unanticipated capital expenditures.  Any such Monthly surcharge shall be set forth in a Trucking Service Order.  If the Monthly surcharge increases rates on deliveries of crude oil by over 15% from the 




6 of 24







rates that would have otherwise been applicable, then TRMC may terminate this Agreement as to the affected volumes and receive a credit against the Minimum Volume Commitment for the volumes that would have otherwise been trucked hereunder.
(f)    Reimbursements.  TRMC shall reimburse TLO for the following:
		
	(i)
	Actual costs of any capital expenditures TLO or THPP agrees to make at TRMC’s request pursuant to a Trucking Service Order to provide additional Truck Gathering Services hereunder, other than capital expenditures required for TLO (A) to continue to provide those Truck Gathering Services specified hereunder or (B) to handle the Minimum Volume Commitment increases specified herein; and


		
	(ii)
	All taxes (other than income taxes, gross receipt taxes and similar taxes) that TLO incurs on TRMC’s behalf for the services TLO provides to TRMC under this Agreement or any Trucking Service Order, if such reimbursement is not prohibited by law.


6.PAYMENTS
(a)    Payments for Minimum Volume Commitment, etc.:  TLO shall invoice TRMC on a Monthly basis and TRMC shall pay all amounts due (including any Quarterly Shortfall Payments, as defined herein, and payments for Excess Volumes) no later than ten (10) calendar days after TRMC's receipt of TLO's invoices.  Any past due amounts owed by TRMC to TLO shall accrue interest, payable on demand, at the rate of eight percent (8.00%) per annum from the due date of the payment through the actual date of payment.
(b)    Quarterly Shortfall Payment:  If, during any Month, TRMC fails to request in good faith that TLO cause to be gathered an amount of crude petroleum equal to the Minimum Volume Commitment for such Month, then TRMC shall pay to TLO an amount (the “Quarterly Shortfall Payment”) equal to (i) the Quarterly Volume Shortfall (ii) multiplied by the Shortfall Rate.  The “Shortfall Rate” shall be an amount stated in an applicable Trucking Service Order, adjusted for inflation as provided in Section 5(d).  The “Quarterly Volume Shortfall” for any Quarter shall mean the volume of Barrels by which (x) the product of (A) the Minimum Volume Commitment (B) multiplied by the number of days in any given Quarter (y) exceeds the Actual Barrels Gathered by TLO during such Month.  [(QVS = MVC x days) - ABG].  
7.SERVICES PROVIDED BY TLO; VOLUME LOSSES 
(a)    Summary of Services:  In consideration of TRMC’s Minimum Volume Commitment and the fees and charges specified in Section 5, pursuant to this Agreement and any Trucking Service Order, TLO shall provide the Truck Gathering Services and the use of TLO’s Truck Unloading Facilities at the sites listed in Schedule I to allow deliveries of TRMC’s crude petroleum into the High Plains System.  
(b)    Truck Unloading Facilities:  TLO shall maintain the Truck Unloading Facilities in good operating condition, subject to normal wear and tear, force majeure and normal deterioration.  If a Truck Unloading Facility becomes unusable due to damage or condition, then TLO shall promptly repair or replace the defective facilities, so long as it is commercially practical to do so and permitted under applicable laws and regulations.  If TLO does not believe that it is commercially practical to replace facilities at a site due to limited volumes or unusual conditions that exist at such site, then 


7 of 24







it shall notify TRMC, and the parties shall set forth in a Trucking Service Order any revised terms that could allow such site to be reopened, and if the parties do not agree to reopen the site, then it shall be removed from Schedule I. If TLO constructs or adds (by purchase or otherwise) additional truck unloading facilities adjacent to the High Plains System, then TLO shall supplement, modify or otherwise update Schedule I attached hereto, specifying such new truck unloading facility, provide an updated Schedule I to TRMC as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event before TLO brings such truck unloading facility into operation.  Notwithstanding the above, TLO may provide additional truck unloading facilities for the use of third parties who desire to deliver crude oil into the High Plains System, provided that such use does not allow the commingling of third party crude oil with TRMC’s crude oil in the Truck Unloading Facilities or otherwise interfere with TRMC’s rights to use the existing Truck Unloading Facilities and the Truck Gathering Services.
(c)    Transport Vehicles:  TLO shall ensure that all transport vehicles used will be clean and free of contaminants, will be in compliance with all state and federal laws and regulations and designated as the proper container for the crude petroleum being transported.  TLO will also ensure that all drivers of these transport vehicles will be adequately trained and qualified to perform the services stated herein.  
(d)    Scheduling/Dispatch/Pick-Up:  Requests for the gathering of crude petroleum under this Agreement or any Trucking Service Order shall be made by TRMC and/or its crude petroleum suppliers on a “call and demand” basis.    TLO will schedule and dispatch all pick-ups of crude petroleum requested by TRMC or its crude petroleum suppliers on such “call and demand” basis. 
(e)    Loading/Transporting:  TLO shall load only that crude petroleum which it is authorized to load pursuant to directions received from TRMC and/or its crude petroleum suppliers or in accordance with this Agreement or any Trucking Service Order.  The quality and quantity of the crude petroleum received by TLO shall be determined by sampling, verification and measurement conducted by TLO, THPP or third party operator of a receipt or delivery point.  TLO shall not mix different grades of crude petroleum, unless authorized by TRMC, or adulterate the crude petroleum with motor fuel or with any chemical or other material whatsoever.  The crude petroleum hauled on a transport truck or stored in a TLO Truck Unloading Facility prior to loading a new delivery must be compatible with the crude petroleum that is being loaded or stored so as to not cause contamination of loaded or stored crude petroleum.  TRMC as part of its quality control may test the quality of crude petroleum delivered by TLO.  TLO agrees to abide by the quality control procedures mutually agreed by the parties from time to time.  TRMC shall at all times retain title to the crude petroleum gathered, transported and delivered by TLO hereunder and shall remain responsible for all risk of loss, damage, deterioration, or contamination as to such crude petroleum, except for that caused by the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement or any Trucking Service Order by TLO, its agents, employees or contractors.
(f)    Delivery:  Immediately upon receipt of crude petroleum from any designated pick-up location, TLO shall safely and expeditiously transport the crude petroleum to its applicable Truck Unloading Facility or other destination as provided for in Section 2(a).  Upon arrival at such Truck Unloading Facility or other destination, TLO shall unload the crude petroleum in compliance with this Agreement or any Trucking Service Order unless otherwise specified in writing.  
(g)    Accounting/Data Services:  TLO shall maintain a true and correct set of records to include but not be limited to, invoices, bills of lading, receipt tickets, transportation records, and delivery tickets, showing the date, crude petroleum amounts, receipt location and delivery location for all crude petroleum transported, and sufficient other detail to permit reasonable verification or

correction of any charges to TRMC hereunder or under any Trucking Service Order.  TLO will provide TRMC with a secure electronic data feed, which shall accurately report all the above information and other information mutually agreed upon by the Parties on a current daily basis.  TLO shall maintain such records for a period not less than five (5) years after performance of services hereunder pursuant to its corporate retention policy.  TRMC, or its representatives, may, from time to time, at TRMC's expense, audit any such records and TLO agrees to permit TRMC, or its representative, access to examine and audit such records at all reasonable times during normal business hours.  TLO shall promptly refund to TRMC any amounts paid by TRMC in excess of amounts properly payable under the terms of the Agreement or any Trucking Service Order.
(h)    Volume Losses:  TLO shall have no obligation to measure volume gains and losses and shall have no liability whatsoever for physical losses incurred in the normal course of operations that may result from the handling and transporting of crude petroleum through trucks that TLO uses to perform Truck Gathering Services or from the Truck Unloading Facilities, except if such losses are caused by the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement or any Trucking Service Order of TLO, its agents, employees or contractors, as further described in Section 12 herein.
8.SAFETY/PREVENTION
TLO agrees that transportation services provided hereunder or under any Trucking Service Order shall be conducted in a safe manner which meets or exceeds regulatory and industry standards for transportation of crude petroleum.

TLO shall use its best efforts to reduce and minimize accidents arising in connection with the services and shall promptly report to TRMC all accidents or occurrences resulting in injuries to the General Partner’s employees or third parties and damage to TRMC’s or third parties’ property, arising out of or during the performance of services under this Agreement or any Trucking Service Order.  All incidents such as spills, property damage or injury shall be immediately reported to the applicable Truck Unloading Facility's attendant and to CHEMTREC at 1-800-424-9300, Customer Number 22014.  The numbers provided herein may be revised by TRMC and shall become effective upon notice to TLO.  TLO shall provide TRMC a written incident report within twenty-four (24) hours of the accident or occurrence, followed promptly by any material information that becomes reasonably available to TLO with respect thereto.  In the event there is a release of crude petroleum or damage to the environment, TLO shall clean up such spill and remediate such damage in accordance with Applicable Law, and if a Clean and Clear letter from the applicable oversight agency is provided to TLO, a copy of such Clean and Clear letter will be sent TRMC promptly after its receipt thereof.

(b)    Right to Enter New Agreement.  Upon termination of this Agreement for reasons other than (i) a default by TRMC, and (ii) any other termination of this Agreement initiated by TRMC pursuant to Section 16 or (iii) the expiration of the Term, TRMC shall have the right to require TLO to enter into a new trucking transportation services agreement with TRMC that (A) is consistent with the terms set forth in this Agreement, and (B) has commercial terms that are, in the aggregate, equal to or more favorable to TLO than fair market value terms as would be agreed by similarly-situated parties negotiating at arm’s length; provided, however, that the term of any such new trucking transportation services agreement shall not extend beyond April 30, 2031.  
15.FORCE MAJEURE
(a)    As soon as possible upon the occurrence of a Force Majeure, TLO shall provide TRMC with written notice of the occurrence of such Force Majeure (a “Force Majeure Notice”).

(b)    TLO’s obligations may be temporarily suspended during the occurrence of, and for the entire duration of, a Force Majeure that prevents TLO from gathering the Minimum Volume Commitment hereunder and delivering such Minimum Volume Commitment into the High Plains System.  If, for reasons of Force Majeure, TLO is prevented from gathering volumes equal to the full Minimum Volume Commitment, then TRMC’s obligation to cause TLO to gather the Minimum Volume Commitment shall be reduced to the extent that TLO is prevented from gathering the full Minimum Volume Commitment.  At such time as TLO is capable of gathering volumes equal to the Minimum Throughput Commitment, TRMC’s obligation to ship the full Minimum Volume Commitment shall be restored.
16.SUSPENSION OF REFINERY OPERATIONS
(a)    In the event that TRMC decides to permanently or indefinitely suspend refining operations at the Mandan Refinery for a period that shall continue for at least twelve (12) consecutive Months, TRMC may provide written notice to TLO of TRMC’s intent to terminate this Agreement (the “Suspension Notice”).  Such Suspension Notice shall be sent at any time after TRMC has publicly announced such suspension and, upon the expiration of the twelve (12) Month period following the date such notice is sent (the “Notice Period”), this Agreement shall terminate.  If TRMC publicly announces, more than two (2) Months prior to the expiration of the Notice Period, its intent to resume operations at the Mandan Refinery, then the Suspension Notice shall be deemed revoked, and the applicable portion of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such Suspension Notice had never been delivered.


12 of 24







(b)    If refining operations at the Mandan Refinery are suspended for any reason (including refinery turnaround operations and other scheduled maintenance), then TRMC shall remain liable for Quarterly Shortfall Payments under this Agreement for the duration of the suspension, unless and until this Agreement is terminated as provided above.  TRMC shall provide at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of any suspension of operations at the Mandan Refinery due to a planned turnaround or scheduled maintenance.

Each Party shall be responsible for compliance with all Applicable Laws associated with such Party’s respective performance hereunder and the operation of such Party’s facilities, and, including without limitation, any and all required certifications required by the Department of Transportation.  In the event any action or obligation imposed upon a Party under this Agreement or any Trucking Service Order shall at any time be in conflict with any requirement of Applicable Law, then this Agreement and any applicable Trucking Service Order, shall immediately be modified to conform the action or obligation so adversely affected to the requirements Applicable Law, and all other provisions of the Agreement and any applicable Trucking Service Order shall remain effective.  


13 of 24







(c)    New Or Changed Applicable Law:  If during the Term, any new Applicable Law becomes effective or any existing Applicable Law are or its interpretations is materially changed, which change is not addressed by another provision of this Agreement or a Trucking Service Order and has a material adverse economic impact upon a Party, either Party, acting in good faith, shall have the option to request renegotiation of the relevant provisions of this Agreement or a Trucking Service Order with respect to future performance.

19.ASSIGNMENT; PARTNERSHIP CHANGE OF CONTROL

21.CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
(a)Obligations.  Each Party shall use reasonable efforts to retain the other Parties’ 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.  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. Excepted from these obligations of confidence and non-use is that information which:
(i)    is available, or becomes available, to the general public without fault of the receiving Party;
(ii)    was in the possession of the receiving Party on a non-confidential basis prior to receipt of the same from the disclosing Party (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that this exception shall not apply to information of TRMC that was in the possession of TLO or any of its Affiliates as a result of their ownership or operation of the TRMC's logistics assets prior to the Effective Date);
(iii)    is obtained by the receiving Party without an obligation of confidence from a third party who is rightfully in possession of such information and, to the receiving Party’s knowledge, is under no obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing Party; or
(iv)    is independently developed by the receiving Party without reference to or use of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.
For the purpose of this Section 21, a specific item of Confidential Information shall not be deemed to be within the foregoing exceptions merely because it is embraced by, or underlies, more general information in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party.
(b)Required Disclosure.  Notwithstanding Section 21(a) above, if the receiving Party becomes legally compelled to disclose the Confidential Information by a court, Governmental Authority or Applicable Law, or is required to disclose by the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange, 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.  


16 of 24







(c)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 such 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, and such archived or back-up Confidential Information shall not be accessed except as required by Applicable Law.
(d)Receiving Party Personnel. The receiving Party will limit access to the Confidential Information of the disclosing Party to those of its employees, attorneys and 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.
(e)Survival. The obligation of confidentiality under this Section 21 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of two (2) years.
22.MISCELLANEOUS
(a)Modification; Waiver.  This Agreement and any Trucking Service Order may be terminated, amended or modified only by a written instrument executed by the Parties.  Any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any Trucking Service Order may be waived in writing at any time by the Party entitled to the benefits thereof.  No waiver of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any Trucking Service Order, or any breach thereof, will be effective unless in writing signed by a duly authorized individual on behalf of the Party against which the waiver is sought to be enforced.  No waiver of any term or condition or of any breach of this Agreement or any Trucking Service Order will be deemed or will constitute a waiver of any other term or condition or of any later breach (whether or not similar), nor will such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.
(b)Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, together with the Schedules, Exhibits and Trucking Service Orders, constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings of the Parties in connection therewith.  
(c)Governing Law; Jurisdiction.  This Agreement and any Trucking Service Order shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas without giving effect to its conflict of laws principles.  Each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal court of competent jurisdiction situated in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas, San Antonio Division, or if such federal court declines to exercise or does not have 


17 of 24







jurisdiction, in the district court of Bexar County, Texas.  The Parties expressly and irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of said Courts and irrevocably waive any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any Trucking Service Order brought in such Courts, irrevocably waive any claim that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such Court has been brought in an inconvenient forum and further irrevocably waive the right to object, with respect to such claim, action, suit or proceeding brought in any such Court, that such Court does not have jurisdiction over such Party.  The Parties hereby irrevocably consent to the service of process by registered mail, postage prepaid, or by personal service within or without the State of Texas.  Nothing contained herein shall affect the right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. 
(d)Counterparts.  This Agreement and any Trucking Service Order may be executed in one or more counterparts (including by facsimile or portable document format (pdf)) for the convenience of the Parties hereto, each of which counterparts will be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts together will constitute one and the same agreement.
(e)Severability.  Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement and any Trucking Service Order will be interpreted in such manner as to be valid and effective under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement, any Trucking Service Order or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance will be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision hereof, and the Parties will negotiate in good faith with a view to substitute for such provision a suitable and equitable solution in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.
(f)No Third Party Beneficiaries.  It is expressly understood that the provisions of this Agreement and any Trucking Service Order do not impart enforceable rights in anyone who is not a Party or successor or permitted assignee of a Party.
(g)WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH PARTY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY TRUCKING SERVICE ORDER OR ANY PERFORMANCE OR FAILURE TO PERFORM ANY OBLIGATION HEREUNDER.
(h)Schedules and Exhibits.  Each of the Schedules, Exhibits and Trucking Service Orders attached hereto and referred to herein is hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein.

Each policy shall provide that it is primary to and not contributory with any other insurance, including any self-insured retention, maintained by TLO (which shall be excess) and each policy shall provide the full coverage required by this Agreement.  All such insurance shall be written with carriers and underwriters acceptable to TRMC, and eligible to do business in the states where the gathering operations are located and having and maintaining an A.M.

	(ii)
	Employers Liability Insurance with a minimum limit of $1,000,000 for each accident, covering injury or death to any employee which may be outside the scope of the worker’s compensation statute of the jurisdiction in which the worker’s service is performed, and in the aggregate as respects occupational disease; 


		
	(iii)
	Commercial General Liability Insurance, including contractual liability insurance covering Carrier’s indemnity obligations under this Agreement, with minimum limits of $1,000,000 combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury and property damage liability, or such higher limits as may be required by TRMC or by Applicable Law from time to time.  This policy shall include Broad Form Contractual Liability insurance coverage which shall specifically apply to the obligations assumed in this Agreement by TLO; 


		
	(iv)
	Automobile Liability Insurance covering all owned, non-owned and hired vehicles, with minimum limits of $1,000,000 combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury and property damage liability, or such higher limit(s) as may be required by TLO or by Applicable Law from time to time.  Coverage must assure compliance with Sections 29 and 30 of the Motor Carrier Act of 1980 and all applicable rules and regulations of the Federal Highway Administration’s Bureau of Motor Carrier Safety and Interstate Commerce Commissioner (Form MCS 90 Endorsement).  Limits of liability for this insurance must be in accordance with the financial responsibility requirement of the Motor Carrier Act, but not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence;


		
	(v)
	Excess (Umbrella) Liability Insurance with limits not less than $4,000,000 per occurrence.  Additional excess limits may be utilized to supplement inadequate limits in the primary policies required in items (ii), (iii), and (iv) above;

Such certificates shall be in the form of the “Accord” Certificate of Insurance, and reflect that they are for the benefit of TRMC and shall provide that there will be no material change in or cancellation of the policies unless TRMC is given at least thirty (30) days prior written notice.
