Loading Rack Throughput Agreement (Lovington)

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




     (i) Subject to Section 4, Navajo shall pay HEP Lovington throughput fees
associated with the Loading Rack that will satisfy the Minimum Loading Rack Commitment in
exchange for HEP Lovington providing Navajo a minimum of 4,000 barrels per day of aggregate
capacity at the Loading Rack. The “Minimum Loading Rack Revenue Commitment” shall
be an amount of revenue to HEP Lovington for each Contract Quarter determined by multiplying
the Minimum Loading Rack Throughput by the Loading Rack Tariff as such Loading Rack Tariff
may be revised pursuant to Section 2(a)(ii). Navajo will pay HEP Lovington the
Loading Rack Tariff for all quantities of Products loaded at the Loading Rack.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Closing Date is any date other than the
first day of a Contract Quarter, then the Minimum Loading Rack 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) The Loading Rack 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; provided that the Loading Rack Tariff shall never be increased by more than 3%
for any such calendar year. 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 Loading Rack Tariff. If the above index is no longer published, then Navajo and HEP
Lovington 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 Loading Rack Tariff. If Navajo and HEP
Lovington are unable to agree, a new index will be determined by binding arbitration in
accordance with Section 11(e), and the same method of adjustment for increases in
the new index shall be used to calculate increases in the Loading Rack Tariff. To evidence
the Parties’ agreement to each adjusted Loading Rack 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.




     (iii) If Navajo is unable to transport on the Loading Rack the volumes of Products
required to meet the Minimum Loading Rack Revenue Commitment as a result of HEP Lovington’s
operational difficulties, prorationing, or the inability to provide sufficient capacity for
the Minimum Loading Rack Throughput, then the Minimum



Loading Rack Throughput Agreement (Lovington)





5









 









Loading Rack Revenue Commitment applicable to the Contract Quarter during which Navajo is unable to transport such volumes
of Products will be reduced by an amount equal to: (A) the volume of Products that Navajo
was unable to load at the Loading Rack (but not to exceed the Minimum Loading Rack
Throughput), as a result of HEP Lovington’s operational difficulties, prorationing or
inability to provide sufficient capacity to achieve the Minimum Loading Rack Throughput,
multiplied by (B) the Loading Rack Tariff. This Section 2(a)(iii) shall not apply
in the event HEP Lovington gives notice of a Force Majeure event in accordance with
Section 4, in which case the Minimum Loading Rack Revenue Commitment shall be
suspended in accordance with and as provided in Section 4.



     (b) Obligations of HEP Lovington. During the Term and subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, including Section 11(b), HEP Lovington agrees to: (i) own or
lease, operate and maintain the Loading Rack and all related assets necessary to operate the
Loading Rack; (ii) provide the services required under this Agreement and perform all operations
relating to the Loading Rack; and (iii) maintain adequate property and liability insurance covering
the Loading Rack and any related assets owned by HEP and necessary for the operation of the Loading
Rack. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, subject to Section 11(b) of this Agreement
and Article V of the Omnibus Agreement, HEP Lovington is free to sell any of its assets, including
assets that provide services under this Agreement, and Navajo is free to merge with another entity
and to sell all of its assets or equity to another entity at any time.



     (c) Notification of Utilization. Upon request by HEP Lovington, Navajo will provide
to HEP Lovington written notification of Navajo’s reasonable good faith estimate of their
anticipated future utilization of the Loading Rack as soon as reasonably practicable after
receiving such request.



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



     (e) Taxes. Navajo will pay all taxes, import duties, license fees and other charges
by any Governmental Authority levied on or with respect to the Products handled by Navajo for
loading or unloading by HEP Lovington. 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(e) the proper Party shall promptly reimburse the other Party therefor.



     (f) Timing of Payments. Navajo will make payments to HEP Lovington 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 Lovington under this Agreement
in the prior month. Payments not received by HEP Lovington on or prior to the
applicable payment date will accrue interest at the Prime Rate from the applicable payment
date until paid.

     (g) Increases in Tariff Rates. If new Applicable Laws are enacted that require HEP
Lovington to make capital expenditures with respect to the Loading Rack, HEP Lovington may amend
the Loading Rack Tariff in order to recover HEP Lovington’s cost of complying with these Applicable
Laws (as determined in good faith and including a reasonable return); provided,
however, that HEP Lovington may not amend the Loading Rack Tariff pursuant to this
Section 2(g) unless and until HEP Lovington has made capital expenditures of $500,000.00 in
the aggregate with respect to the Loading Rack in order to comply with such new Applicable Laws.
Navajo and HEP Lovington 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 and HEP Lovington are unable to
agree on the amount of the new tariff rates that HEP Lovington will charge, such tariff rates will
be determined by binding arbitration in accordance with Section 11(e). Any 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(g).



     (h) Reimbursement of Operating Expenses. At the end of the first four (4) Contract
Quarters following the Closing Date, HEP Lovington shall calculate its aggregate operating expenses
incurred in the operation of the Loading Rack (but such calculation shall not include extraordinary
and non-recurring items of expense that are not reasonably expected to recur in future periods
during the Term). In the event that such aggregate operating expenses exceed the Assumed OPEX, (i)
Navajo shall reimburse HEP Lovington for such operating expenses incurred in excess of the Assumed
OPEX, and (ii) HEP Lovington shall increase the Loading Rack Tariff by the amount necessary to
increase the Minimum Loading Rack Revenue Commitment by an amount equal to such aggregate operating
expenses in excess of the Assumed OPEX for the remainder of the Term, and the Parties shall execute
an amended, modified, revised or updated Schedule II reflecting such aggregate operating
expenses as the new Assumed OPEX. In the event that such aggregate operating expenses are less
than the Assumed OPEX, HEP Lovington shall decrease the Loading Rack Tariff by the amount necessary
to decrease the Minimum Loading Rack Revenue Commitment by an amount equal to the difference
between the Assumed OPEX and such actual operating expenses for the remainder of the Term, and the
Parties shall execute an amended, modified, revised or updated Schedule II reflecting such
aggregate operating expenses as the new Assumed OPEX. In the event that the PPI increase for any
given year is greater than seven percent (7%), then, in addition to any other applicable increases
during such year, HEP Lovington shall increase the Loading Rack Tariff by an additional amount
necessary to increase the Minimum Loading Rack Revenue Commitment by the OPEX Recovery Amount.
Such OPEX Recovery Amount shall be added to the then-current Assumed OPEX, and the Parties shall
execute an amended, modified, revised or updated Schedule II reflecting the addition of
such OPEX Recovery Amount to the Assumed OPEX.



     Section 3. Agreement to Remain Shipper



     With respect to any Products that are transported, stored or handled in connection with any of
the Loading Rack, Navajo agrees that it will continue acting in the capacity of the shipper
of any such Products for its own account at all times that such Products are being
transported, stored or handled in such Loading Rack.

     Section 4. Notification of Shut-down or Reconfiguration; Force Majeure



     (a) Navajo must deliver to HEP Lovington at least six months advance written notice of any
planned shut down or reconfiguration (excluding planned maintenance turnarounds) of the Refinery or
any portion of the Refinery that would reduce the Refinery’s output. Navajo will use its
commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any reduction in revenues or throughput obligations
under this Agreement that would result from such a shut down or reconfiguration. If Navajo shuts
down or reconfigures the Refinery or any portion of the Refinery (excluding planned maintenance
turnarounds) and reasonably believes in good faith that such shut down or reconfiguration will
jeopardize its ability to satisfy its Minimum Loading Rack Revenue Commitment under this Agreement,
then within 90 days of the delivery of the written notice of the planned shut down or
reconfiguration, Navajo shall (i) propose a new Minimum Loading Rack Revenue Commitment under this
Agreement such that the ratio of the new Minimum Loading Rack Revenue Commitment under this
Agreement over the anticipated production level following the shut down or reconfiguration will be
approximately equal to the ratio of the original Minimum Loading Rack Revenue Commitment under this
Agreement over the original production level and (ii) propose the date on which the new Minimum
Loading Rack Revenue Commitment under this Agreement shall take effect. Unless objected to by HEP
Lovington within 60 days of receipt by HEP Lovington of such proposal, such new Minimum Loading
Rack Revenue Commitment under this Agreement shall become effective as of the date proposed by
Navajo. To the extent that HEP Lovington does not agree with Navajo’s proposal, any changes in
Navajo’s obligations under this Agreement, or the date on which such changes will take effect, will
be determined by binding arbitration in accordance with Section 13(e). Any applicable
exhibit or schedule to this Agreement will be updated, amended or revised, as applicable, in
accordance with this Agreement to reflect any change in the Minimum Loading Rack Revenue Commitment
under this Agreement agreed to in accordance with this Section 4(a).



     (b) 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(b) 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 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 Lovington
or Navajo 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 Lovington or Navajo
by providing written notice thereof to the other Party.

Parties of its desire to so extend this Agreement; such written notice shall be provided not more

termination or ten (10) days after receipt of a written request from another Party (which request
may be delivered no earlier than twelve (12) months prior to the date of termination) to provide
any such notice or lose such right.



     Section 6. Right to Enter into a New Agreement



     (a) In the event that Navajo provides prior written notice to HEP Lovington of the desire of
Navajo to extend this Agreement by written mutual agreement of the Parties, the Parties shall
negotiate in good faith to extend this Agreement by written mutual agreement, but, if such
negotiations fail to produce a written mutual agreement for extension by a date six months prior to
the termination date, then HEP Lovington shall have the right to negotiate to enter into one or
more loading agreements with one or more third parties to begin after the date of termination,
provided that until the end of one year following termination without renewal of this Agreement,
Navajo will have the right to enter into a new loading agreement with HEP Lovington on commercial
terms that substantially match the terms upon which HEP Lovington propose to enter into an
agreement with a third party for similar services with respect to the Loading Rack. In such
circumstances, HEP Lovington shall give Navajo forty-five (45) days prior written notice of any
proposed new loading agreement with a third party, and such notice shall inform Navajo of the fee
schedules, tariffs, duration and any other terms of the proposed third party agreement and Navajo
shall have forty-five (45) days following receipt of such notice to agree to the terms specified in
the notice or Navajo shall lose the rights specified by this Section 6(a) with respect to
the assets that are the subject of such notice.



     (b) In the event that Navajo fails to provide prior written notice to HEP Lovington of the

Section 5, HEP Lovington shall have the right, during the period from the date of Navajo’s
failure to provide written notice pursuant to Section 5 to the date of termination of this
Agreement, to negotiate to enter into a new loading agreement with a third party; provided,
however, that at any time during the twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the Term, Navajo
will have the right to enter into a new loading agreement with HEP Lovington on commercial terms
that substantially match the terms upon which HEP Lovington propose to enter into an agreement with
a third party for similar services with respect to the Loading Rack. In such circumstances, HEP
Lovington shall give Navajo forty-five (45) days prior written notice of any proposed new loading
agreement with a third party, and such notice shall inform Navajo of the fee schedules, tariffs,
duration and any other terms of the proposed third party agreement and Navajo shall have forty-five
(45) days following receipt of such notice to agree to the terms specified in the notice or Navajo
shall lose the rights specified by this Section 6(b) with respect to the assets that are
the subject of such notice.

     Section 8. Deficiency Payments



     (a) As soon as practicable following the end of each Contract Quarter under this Agreement,
HEP Lovington shall deliver to Navajo a written notice (the “Deficiency Notice”) detailing
any failure of Navajo to meet their obligations under Section 2(a)(i), provided,
however, that Navajo’s obligations pursuant to the Minimum Loading Rack Revenue Commitment
shall be assessed on a quarterly basis for the purposes of this Section 8. The Deficiency
Notice shall (i) specify in reasonable detail the nature of any deficiency and (ii) specify the
approximate dollar amount that HEP Lovington believes would have been paid by Navajo to HEP
Lovington if Navajo had complied with its obligations pursuant to Section 2(a)(i) (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 disagrees with the Deficiency Notice, then, following the payment of the
undisputed portion of the Deficiency Payment to HEP Lovington, if any, Navajo shall send written
notice thereof regarding the disputed portion of the Deficiency Payment to HEP Lovington and a
senior officer of Holly (on behalf of Navajo) and a senior officer of the Partnership (on behalf of
HEP Lovington) 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 shall
have access to the working papers of HEP Lovington relating to the Deficiency Notice. If such
differences are not resolved within thirty (30) days following Navajo’s receipt of the Deficiency
Notice, Navajo and HEP Lovington shall, within forty-five (45) days following Navajo’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 11(e).



     (c) If it is finally determined pursuant to this Section 8 that Navajo is required to
pay any or all of the disputed portion of the Deficiency Payment, Navajo shall promptly pay such
amount to HEP Lovington, together with interest thereon at the Prime Rate, in immediately available
funds.



     (d) The Parties acknowledge and agree that there shall be no carry-over of deficiency payments
beyond each Calendar Quarter provided for in Section 8(a) with respect to the Minimum

THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE RECOVERY BY ANY PARTY OF ANY LIABILITIES, DAMAGES, COSTS OR OTHER
EXPENSES SUFFERED OR INCURRED BY IT AS A RESULT OF ANY BREACH OR NONFULFILLMENT BY A PARTY OF 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

HOWEVER, THAT SUCH RESTRICTION AND LIMITATION SHALL NOT APPLY (x) AS A RESULT OF A THIRD

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 of Navajo or HEP Lovington, as applicable, 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
Loading Rack 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 11. 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



Loading Rack Throughput Agreement (Lovington)







12









 








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, HEP Lovington 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 (in the case of any assignment by HEP Lovington) or HEP Lovington
(in the case of any assignment by Navajo), in each case, such consent is not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed; provided, however, that (i) HEP Lovington may make such an assignment
(including a partial pro rata assignment) to an Affiliate of HEP Lovington without Navajo’s
consent, (ii) Navajo may make such an assignment (including a pro rata partial assignment) to an
Affiliate of Navajo without HEP Lovington’s consent, (iii) Navajo may make a collateral assignment
of their rights and obligations hereunder, and (iv) HEP Lovington may make a collateral assignment
of their rights hereunder and/or grant a security interest in all or a portion of the Loading Rack
to a bona fide third party lender or debt holder, or trustee or representative for any of them,
without Navajo’s consent, if such third party lender, debt holder or trustee shall have executed
and delivered to Navajo a non-disturbance agreement in such form as is reasonably satisfactory to
Navajo and such third party lender, debt holder or trustee and Navajo executes an acknowledgement
of such collateral assignment in such form as may from time to time be reasonably requested. 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 11(e) and the Commercial
Arbitration Rules or the Federal Arbitration Act, the terms of this Section 11(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



Loading Rack Throughput Agreement (Lovington)







13









 








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, HEP Lovington or any of their Affiliates and (ii) have not less than
seven (7) years experience in the petroleum transportation industry. The hearing will be conducted
in Dallas, Texas and commence within thirty (30) days after the selection of the third arbitrator.
Navajo, HEP Lovington 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, HEP Lovington 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.
