     Section 2. Agreement to Use Services Relating to Roadrunner Pipeline.



     The Parties intend to be strictly bound by the terms set forth in this Agreement, which sets
forth revenues to HEP Operating to be paid by Navajo Refining and requires HEP Operating to provide
certain Crude Oil transportation services to Navajo Refining. The principal objective of HEP
Operating is for Navajo Refining to meet or exceed its obligations with respect to the Minimum
Pipeline Revenue Commitment. The principal objective of Navajo Refining is for HEP Operating to
provide services to Navajo Refining in a manner that enables Navajo Refining to transport Crude Oil
on the Roadrunner Pipeline.



     (a) Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment. During the Term and subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, Navajo Refining agrees as follows:




     (i) Subject to Section 4, Navajo Refining shall pay HEP Operating throughput
fees associated with the Roadrunner Pipeline that will satisfy the Minimum Pipeline Revenue
Commitment in exchange for HEP Operating providing Navajo Refining a minimum of 40,000
barrels per day of aggregate capacity in the Roadrunner Pipeline. In the event that any
third party transports Crude Oil on the Roadrunner Pipeline for ultimate delivery to Holly
or any of its subsidiaries and such third party pays throughput fees equal to or greater
than the Pipeline Base Tariff for each such barrel of Crude Oil transported on the
Roadrunner Pipeline for ultimate delivery to Holly or any of its subsidiaries
(“Qualified Third-Party Throughput”), then revenues paid to HEP Operating by such
third party for such Qualified Third-Party Throughput shall be credited towards the Minimum
Pipeline Revenue Commitment hereunder. The “Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment”
shall be an amount of revenue to HEP Operating for each Contract Quarter determined by
multiplying the Minimum Pipeline Throughput by the Pipeline Base Tariff, as such Pipeline
Base Tariff may be revised pursuant to Section 2(a)(iii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in
the event that the Effective Time is any date



Pipeline Throughput Agreement (Roadrunner)




4









 









other than the first day of a Contract Quarter, then the Minimum Pipeline Revenue
Commitment for the initial Contract Quarter shall be prorated based upon the number of days
actually in such contract quarter and the initial Contract Quarter.




     (ii) If the average throughput for any Contract Quarter (including Qualified
Third-Party Throughput) exceeds the Minimum Pipeline Throughput attributable to such
Contract Quarter, then for each throughput barrel in excess of the Minimum Pipeline
Throughput, Navajo Refining shall pay HEP Operating throughput fees in the amount of the
Pipeline Incentive Tariff as such amount may be revised pursuant to Section 2(a)(iii).




     (iii) The Pipeline Base Tariff and Pipeline Incentive Tariff shall be adjusted on July
1 of each calendar year commencing on July 1, 2011, by an amount equal to the upper change
in the annual change rounded to four decimal places of the Producers Price
Index-Commodities-Finished Goods, (PPI), et al. (“PPI”), produced by the U.S.
Department of Labor, Bureaus of Labor Statistics. The series ID is WPUSOP3000 as of
September 7, 2009 – located at http://www.bls.gov/data/. The change factor shall be
calculated as follows: annual PPI index (most current year) less annual PPI index
(most current year minus 1) divided by annual PPI index (most current year minus 1).
An example for year 2009 change is: [PPI (2008) – PPI (2007)] / PPI (2007) or (177.1 –
166.6) / 166.6 or .063 or 6.3%. If the PPI index change is negative in a given year, then
there will be no change in the Pipeline Base Tariff or Pipeline Incentive Tariff.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that the PPI for any given
calendar year increases by more than three percent (3%), then the Pipeline Base Tariff and
Pipeline Incentive Tariff will be increased by a percentage equal to three percent (3%) plus
one-half of the PPI increase in excess of three percent (3%) for such calendar year. If the
above index is no longer published, then Navajo Refining and HEP Operating 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 in the new index shall be used to calculate
increases in the Pipeline Base Tariff and Pipeline Incentive Tariff. If Navajo Refining and
HEP Operating are unable to agree, a new index will be determined by binding arbitration in
accordance with Section 12(e), and the same method of adjustment for increases in
the new index shall be used to calculate increases in the Pipeline Base Tariff and Pipeline
Incentive Tariff. To evidence the Parties’ agreement to each adjusted Pipeline Base Tariff
and Pipeline Incentive Tariff, the Parties shall execute an amended, modified, revised or
updated Schedule I and attach it to this Agreement. Such amended, modified, revised
or updated Schedule I shall be sequentially numbered (e.g. Schedule I-1,
Schedule I-2, etc.), dated and appended as an additional schedule to this Agreement
and shall replace the prior version of Schedule I in its entirety.




     (iv) If Navajo Refining is unable to transport on the Roadrunner Pipeline the volumes
of Crude Oil required to meet the Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment as a result of HEP
Operating’s operational difficulties, prorationing, or the inability to provide sufficient
capacity for the Minimum Pipeline Throughput, then the Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment
applicable to the Contract Quarter during which Navajo Refining is unable to transport such
volumes of Crude Oil will be reduced by an amount equal to: (A) the volume of Crude Oil that
Navajo Refining was unable to transport on the



Pipeline Throughput Agreement (Roadrunner)




5









 









Roadrunner Pipeline (but not to exceed the Minimum Pipeline Throughput), as a result of
HEP Operating’s operational difficulties, prorationing or inability to provide sufficient
capacity on the Roadrunner Pipeline to achieve the Minimum Pipeline Throughput, multiplied
by (B) the Pipeline Base Tariff. This Section 2(a)(iv) shall not apply in the event
HEP Operating gives notice of a Force Majeure event in accordance with Section 4, in
which case the Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment shall be suspended in accordance with and
as provided in Section 4.



     (b) Volumetric Gains and Losses. Navajo Refining shall, during the Term, (i) absorb
all volumetric gains in the Roadrunner Pipeline, and (ii) be responsible for all volumetric losses
in the Roadrunner Pipeline up to a maximum of 0.5%. HEP Operating shall be responsible for all
volumetric losses in excess of 0.5% in the Roadrunner Pipeline during the Term



     (c) Obligations of HEP Operating. During the Term and subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, including Section 12(b), HEP Operating agrees to: (i) own or
lease, operate and maintain (directly or through a subsidiary) the Roadrunner Pipeline and all
related assets necessary to handle the Crude Oil from Navajo Refining; (ii) provide the services
required under this Agreement and perform all operations relating to the Roadrunner Pipeline
including, but not limited to, interaction with third party pipelines; and (iii) maintain adequate
property and liability insurance covering the Roadrunner Pipeline and any related assets owned by
HEP Operating and necessary for the operation of the Roadrunner Pipeline. Notwithstanding the
preceding sentence, subject to Section 12(b) of this Agreement and Article V of the Omnibus
Agreement, HEP Operating is free to sell any of its assets, including assets that provide services
under this Agreement, and Navajo Refining is free to merge with another entity and to sell all of
its assets or equity to another entity at any time.



     (d) Drag Reducing Agents and Additives. If HEP Operating determines that adding drag
reducing agents (“DRA”) to the Crude Oil is reasonably required to move Crude Oil in the
quantities necessary to meet Navajo Refining’s schedule or as may be otherwise be required to
safely move such quantities of Crude Oil, HEP Operating shall provide Navajo Refining with an
analysis of the proposed cost and benefits thereof. In the event that Navajo Refining agrees to
use such additives as proposed by HEP Operating, Navajo Refining shall reimburse HEP Operating for
the costs of adding any DRA to the Crude Oil.



     (e) Change in Roadrunner Pipeline Direction; Product Service or Origination and
Destination. Without Navajo Refining’s prior written consent, HEP Operating shall not (i)
reverse the direction of the Roadrunner Pipeline; (ii) change, alter or modify the product service
of the Roadrunner Pipeline; or (iii) change, alter or modify the origination or destination of the
Roadrunner Pipeline; provided, however, that HEP Operating may take any necessary emergency action
to prevent or remedy a release of Crude Oil from the Roadrunner Pipeline without obtaining the
consent required by this Section 2(e). Navajo Refining shall have the right to reverse the
direction of the Roadrunner Pipeline if Navajo Refining agrees to (i) reimburse HEP Operating for
the additional costs and expenses incurred by HEP Operating as a result of such change in direction
(both to reverse and re-reverse); (ii) reimburse the HEP Operating for all costs arising out of HEP
Operating’s inability to perform under any transportation service contract due to the reversal of
the direction of the Roadrunner Pipeline; and (iii) pay the Pipeline



Pipeline Throughput Agreement (Roadrunner)





6









 







Base Tariff and Pipeline Incentive Tariff set forth on Schedule I, as it may be
amended from time-to-time in accordance with this Agreement, for any such flow reversal.




     (f) Notification of Utilization. Upon request by HEP Operating, Navajo Refining will
provide to HEP Operating written notification of Navajo Refining’s reasonable good faith estimate
of their anticipated future utilization of the Roadrunner Pipeline as soon as reasonably
practicable after receiving such request.



     (g) Scheduling and Accepting Movement. HEP Operating will use its reasonable
commercial efforts to schedule movement and accept movements of Crude Oil in a manner that is
consistent with the historical dealings between the Parties, as such dealings may change from time
to time.



     (h) Taxes. Navajo Refining will pay all taxes, import duties, license fees and other
charges by any Governmental Authority levied on or with respect to the Crude Oil handled by Navajo
Refining for transportation by HEP Operating. Should any Party be required to pay or collect any
taxes, duties, charges and or assessments pursuant to any Applicable Law or authority now in effect
or hereafter to become effective which are payable by the any other Party pursuant to this
Section 2(h) the proper Party shall promptly reimburse the other Party therefor.



     (i) Timing of Payments. Navajo Refining will make payments to HEP Operating by
electronic payment with immediately available funds on a monthly basis during the Term with respect
to services rendered or reimbursable costs or expenses incurred by HEP Operating under this
Agreement in the prior month. Payments not received by HEP Operating on or prior to the applicable
payment date will accrue interest at the Prime Rate from the applicable payment date until paid.



     (j) Increases in Tariff Rates. If new Applicable Laws are enacted that require HEP
Operating to make capital expenditures with respect to the Roadrunner Pipeline, HEP Operating may
amend the Pipeline Base Tariff in order to recover HEP Operating’s cost of complying with these
Applicable Laws (as determined in good faith and including a reasonable return); provided,
however, that HEP Operating may not amend the Pipeline Base Tariff pursuant to this
Section 2(j) unless and until HEP Operating has made capital expenditures of $1,000,000.00
in the aggregate with respect to the Roadrunner Pipeline in order to comply with such new
Applicable Laws. Navajo Refining and HEP Operating shall use their reasonable commercial efforts
to comply with these Applicable Laws, and shall negotiate in good faith to mitigate the impact of
these Applicable Laws and to determine the amount of the new tariff rates. If Navajo Refining and
HEP Operating are unable to agree on the amount of the new tariff rates that HEP Operating will
charge, such tariff rates will be determined by binding arbitration in accordance with Section
12(e). Schedule I or any other applicable exhibit or schedule to this Agreement will
be updated, amended or revised, as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement to reflect any
changes in tariff rates agreed to in accordance with this Section 2(j).



     Section 3. Agreement to Remain Shipper



     With respect to any Crude Oil that is transported in the Roadrunner Pipeline, Navajo Refining
agrees that it will continue acting in the capacity of the shipper of any such Crude Oil



Pipeline Throughput Agreement (Roadrunner)




7









 







for its own account at all times that such Crude Oil is being transported in the Roadrunner
Pipeline.




     Section 4. Force Majeure



     In the event that any Party is rendered unable, wholly or in part, by a Force Majeure event
from performing its obligations under this Agreement for a period of more than thirty (30)
consecutive days, then, upon the delivery of notice and full particulars of the Force Majeure event
in writing within a reasonable time after the occurrence of the Force Majeure event relied on
(“Force Majeure Notice”), the obligations of the Parties, so far as they are affected by
the Force Majeure event, shall be suspended for the duration of any inability so caused. Any
suspension of the obligations of the Parties as a result of this Section 4 shall extend the
Term (to the extent so affected) for a period equivalent to the duration of the inability set forth
in the Force Majeure Notice. Navajo Refining will 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 no 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. In the event a Force Majeure event prevents HEP Operating
or Navajo Refining from performing substantially all of their respective obligations under this
Agreement for a period of more than one (1) year, this Agreement may be terminated by HEP Operating
or Navajo Refining by providing written notice thereof to the other Party.



     Section 5. Agreement Not to Challenge Tariffs



     Navajo Refining agrees to any tariff rate changes for the Roadrunner Pipeline in accordance
with this Agreement. Navajo Refining agrees (a) not to challenge, nor to cause their Affiliates to
challenge, nor to encourage or recommend to any other Person that it challenge, or voluntarily
assist in any way any other Person in challenging, in any forum, tariffs (including joint tariffs)
of HEP Operating that HEP Operating has filed or may file containing rates, rules or regulations
that are in effect at any time during the Term and regulate the transportation of the Crude Oil,
and (b) not to protest or file a complaint, nor cause their Affiliates to protest or file a
complaint, nor encourage or recommend to any other Person that it protest or file a complaint, or
voluntarily assist in any way any other Person in protesting or filing a complaint, with respect to
regulatory filings that the HEP Operating has made or may make at any time during the Term to
change tariffs (including joint tariffs) for transportation of Crude Oil in each case so long as
such tariffs, regulatory filings or rates changed do not conflict with the terms of this Agreement.



     Section 6. Effectiveness and Term



     This Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Time, and shall terminate at 12:01 a.m.

     Section 9. Deficiency Payments



     (a) As soon as practicable following the end of each Contract Quarter under this Agreement,
HEP Operating shall deliver to Navajo Refining a written notice (the “Deficiency Notice”)
detailing any failure of Navajo Refining to meet its obligations under Section 2(a)(i);
provided, however, that Navajo Refining’s obligations pursuant to the Minimum
Pipeline Revenue Commitment (including Qualified Third-Party Throughput) shall be assessed on a



Pipeline Throughput Agreement (Roadrunner)




10









 







quarterly basis for the purposes of this Section 9. The Deficiency Notice shall (i)
specify in reasonable detail the nature of any deficiency and (ii) specify the approximate dollar
amount that HEP Operating believes would have been paid by Navajo Refining to HEP Operating if
Navajo Refining had complied with its obligations pursuant to Section 2(a)(i) (the
“Deficiency Payment”). Navajo Refining shall pay the Deficiency Payment to HEP Operating
upon the later of: (A) ten (10) days after their receipt of the Deficiency Notice and (B) thirty
(30) days following the end of the related Contract Quarter.




     (b) If Navajo Refining disagrees with the Deficiency Notice, then, following the payment of
the undisputed portion of the Deficiency Payment to HEP Operating, if any, Navajo Refining shall
send written notice thereof regarding the disputed portion of the Deficiency Payment to HEP
Operating and a senior officer of Holly (on behalf of Navajo Refining) and a senior officer of the
Partnership (on behalf of HEP Operating) 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. During the 30-day period following the payment of the
Deficiency Payment, Navajo Refining shall have access to the working papers of HEP Operating
relating to the Deficiency Notice. If such differences are not resolved within thirty (30) days
following Navajo Refining’s receipt of the Deficiency Notice, Navajo Refining and HEP Operating
shall, within forty-five (45) days following Navajo Refining’s receipt of the Deficiency Notice,
submit any and all matters which remain in dispute and which were properly included in the
Deficiency Notice to arbitration in accordance with Section 12(e).



     (c) If it is finally determined pursuant to this Section 9 that Navajo Refining is
required to pay any or all of the disputed portion of the Deficiency Payment, Navajo Refining shall
promptly pay such amount to HEP Operating, together with interest thereon at the Prime Rate, in
immediately available funds.



     (d) The fact that Navajo Refining has exceeded or fallen short of the Minimum Pipeline Revenue
Commitment (after taking into account Qualified Third-Party Throughput) with respect to any
Contract Quarter shall not be considered in determining whether Navajo Refining meets, exceeds or
falls short of the Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment (after taking into account Qualified
Third-Party Throughput) with respect to any other Contract Quarter, and the amount of any such
excess or shortfall shall not be counted towards or against the Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment
with respect to any other Contract Quarter.



     Section 10. Right of First Refusal. The Parties acknowledge the right of

EXPENSES SUFFERED OR INCURRED BY IT AS A



Pipeline Throughput Agreement (Roadrunner)





11









 







RESULT OF ANY BREACH OR NONFULFILLMENT BY A PARTY OF ANY OF ITS REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES,
COVENANTS, AGREEMENTS OR OTHER OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, SHALL BE LIMITED TO ACTUAL DAMAGES
AND SHALL NOT INCLUDE OR APPLY TO, NOR SHALL ANY PARTY BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER, ANY INDIRECT,
CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY DAMAGES ON ACCOUNT
OF LOST PROFITS OR OPPORTUNITIES OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR DIMINUTION IN VALUE) SUFFERED OR
INCURRED BY ANY PARTY; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT SUCH RESTRICTION AND LIMITATION
SHALL NOT APPLY (x) AS A RESULT OF A THIRD PARTY CLAIM FOR SUCH INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY
OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR (y) TO INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING,
WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY DAMAGES ON ACCOUNT OF LOST PROFITS OR OPPORTUNITIES OR BUSINESS
INTERRUPTION OR DIMINUTION IN VALUE) THAT ARE A RESULT OF THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL
MISCONDUCT OF THE BREACHING OR NONFULFILLING PARTY OR ITS AFFILIATES.




     (b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and solely for the purpose of
determining which Party shall be liable in a particular circumstance, no Party shall be liable to
another Party for any loss, damage, injury, judgment, claim, cost, expense or other liability
suffered or incurred by such Party (the “Damaged Party”) except to the extent that the
Party causes such loss, damage, injury, judgment, claim, cost, expense or other liability suffered
or incurred by the Damaged Party or owns or operates the Roadrunner Pipeline or other property in
question responsible for causing such loss, damage, injury, judgment, claim, cost, expense or other
liability suffered or incurred by the Damaged Party.



     Section 12. Miscellaneous



     (a) Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be
valid unless it is in writing and signed by the Parties. No waiver of any provision of this
Agreement shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by the Party against whom the waiver is
sought to be enforced. Any of the exhibits or schedules to this Agreement may be amended,
modified, revised or updated by the Parties if each of the Parties executes an amended, modified,
revised or updated exhibit or schedule, as applicable, and attaches it to this Agreement. Such
amended, modified, revised or updated exhibits or schedules shall be sequentially numbered (e.g.
Schedule I-1, Schedule I-2, etc.), dated and appended as an additional exhibit or schedule to this
Agreement and shall replace the prior exhibit or schedule, as applicable, in its entirety, except
as specified therein. No failure or delay in exercising any right hereunder, and no course of
conduct, shall operate as a waiver of any provision of this Agreement. No single or partial
exercise of a right hereunder shall preclude further or complete exercise of that right or any
other right hereunder.



     (b) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall
be binding upon, Navajo Refining, HEP Operating and their respective successors and permitted
assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder shall be assigned
without the prior written consent of Navajo Refining (in the case of any assignment by HEP
Operating) or HEP Operating (in the case of any assignment by Navajo Refining), in each case,



Pipeline Throughput Agreement (Roadrunner)




12









 







such consent is not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that (i) HEP
Operating may make such an assignment (including a partial pro rata assignment) to an Affiliate of
HEP Operating without Navajo Refining’s consent, (ii) Navajo Refining may make such an assignment
(including a pro rata partial assignment) to an Affiliate of Navajo Refining without HEP
Operating’s consent, (iii) Navajo Refining may make a collateral assignment of their rights and
obligations hereunder, and (iv) HEP Operating may make a collateral assignment of their rights
hereunder and/or grant a security interest in its rights and obligations hereunder to a bona fide
third party lender or debt holder, or trustee or representative for any of them, without Navajo
Refining’s consent, if such third party lender, debt holder or trustee shall have executed and
delivered to Navajo Refining a non-disturbance agreement in such form as is reasonably satisfactory
to Navajo Refining and such third party lender, debt holder or trustee. Any attempt to make an
assignment otherwise than as permitted by the foregoing shall be null and void. The Parties agree
to require their respective successors, if any, to expressly assume, in a form of agreement
reasonably acceptable to the other Parties, their obligations under this Agreement.




     (c) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or
unenforceable by a court or regulatory body of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.



     (d) Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the
State of Delaware, excluding any conflicts-of-law rule or principle that might refer the
construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the laws of another state.



     (e) Arbitration Provision. Any and all Arbitrable Disputes must 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 12(e) and the Commercial
Arbitration Rules or the Federal Arbitration Act, the terms of this Section 12(e) 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 Arbitrable Dispute to binding arbitration. Claimant’s notice
initiating binding arbitration must identify the arbitrator Claimant has appointed. The Respondent
shall respond to Claimant within thirty (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 thirty (30) days after the second arbitrator has been appointed.
The Claimant will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by 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 any of Navajo Refining, HEP Operating or any of their Affiliates and (ii) have not
less than seven (7) years experience in the petroleum transportation industry. The hearing will be



Pipeline Throughput Agreement (Roadrunner)





13









 







conducted in Dallas, Texas and commence within thirty (30) days after the selection of the
third arbitrator. Navajo Refining, HEP Operating 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 indirect,
consequential, punitive or exemplary damages of any kind. The Arbitrable Disputes may be
arbitrated in a common proceeding along with disputes under other agreements between Navajo
Refining, HEP Operating or their Affiliates to the extent that the issues raised in such disputes
are related. Without the written consent of the Parties, no unrelated disputes or third party
disputes may be joined to an arbitration pursuant to this Agreement.




     (f) Rights of Limited Partners. The provisions of this Agreement are enforceable
solely by the Parties, and no limited partner of the Partnership shall have the right, separate and
apart from the Partnership, to enforce any provision of this Agreement or to compel any Party to
comply with the terms of this Agreement.



     (g) 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.



     (h) Headings. Headings of the Sections of this Agreement are for convenience of the
Parties only and shall be given no substantive or interpretative effect whatsoever. All references
in this Agreement to Sections are to Sections of this Agreement unless otherwise stated.

     (b) Guaranty Absolute. Holly hereby guarantees that the Navajo Refining Payment

occurrence of any of the matters or events set forth in the foregoing subsections (i)
through (iv); or




     (vi) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or
a discharge of, a guarantor.



     The obligations of Holly hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation,
impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender,
alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim,
recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of
the Navajo Refining Payment Obligations or otherwise.



     (c) Waiver. Holly hereby waives promptness, diligence, all setoffs, presentments,
protests and notice of acceptance and any other notice relating to any of the Navajo Refining

security interest or lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action
against Navajo Refining, any other entity or any collateral.



     (d) Subrogation Waiver. Holly agrees that for so long as there is a current or
ongoing default or breach of this Agreement by Navajo Refining, Holly shall not have any rights
(direct or indirect) of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnification or other rights
of payment or recovery from Navajo Refining for any payments made by Holly under this Section
13, and Holly hereby irrevocably waives and releases, absolutely and unconditionally, any such
rights of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnification and other rights of payment or
recovery it may now have or hereafter acquire against Navajo Refining during any period of default
or breach of this Agreement by Navajo Refining until such time as there is no current or ongoing
default or breach of this Agreement by Navajo Refining.



     (e) Reinstatement. The obligations of Holly under this Section 13 shall
continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of
any of the Navajo Refining Payment Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned to Navajo
Refining or any other entity, upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, arrangement, adjustment,
composition, liquidation or reorganization of Navajo Refining or such other entity, or for any
other reason, all as though such payment had not been made.

(i) remain in full force and effect until the first to occur of the indefeasible payment in full of

15









 







and (iii) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by HEP Operating and its respective
successors, transferees and assigns.




     (g) No Duty to Pursue Others. It shall not be necessary for HEP Operating (and Holly
hereby waives any rights which Holly may have to require HEP Operating), in order to enforce such
payment by Holly, first to (i) institute suit or exhaust its remedies against Navajo Refining or
others liable on the Navajo Refining Payment Obligations or any other person, (ii) enforce HEP
Operating’s rights against any other guarantors of the Navajo Refining Payment Obligations, (iii)
join Navajo Refining or any others liable on the Navajo Refining Payment Obligations in any action
seeking to enforce this Section 13, (iv) exhaust any remedies available to HEP Operating
against any security which shall ever have been given to secure the Navajo Refining Payment
Obligations, or (v) resort to any other means of obtaining payment of the Navajo Refining Payment
Obligations.

continually and irrevocably guarantees, as principal and not as surety, to Navajo Refining the
punctual and complete payment in full when due of all amounts due from HEP Operating under the
Agreement (collectively, the “HEP Operating Payment Obligations”). The Partnership agrees
that Navajo Refining shall be entitled to enforce directly against the Partnership any of the HEP
