or otherwise as a distributor of Products in connection with such use. MPC has the right to approve any such use of the Marks in advance, and revoke its approval at any time and for any reason.




(b)           In connection with transporting and delivering Products to Branded Outlets, BUYER may use a transport, delivery vehicle or tankwagon which does not carry the Marks; provided that, other than the trademark, trade name, logotype, or other identification of BUYER, such vehicle shall not bear the trademark, trade name or other identification of any other gasoline or related products marketer or distributor.




5.6           Signs.




(a)  MPC will provide to BUYER and the Sublicensees, for use on buildings, dispensers, canopies, valance skirts, and other equipment at Branded Outlets, such Brand Signage and related items bearing the Marks as MPC deems necessary, and on such terms and conditions as MPC may establish from time to time. Brand Signage provided by MPC for a Branded Outlet will be located and displayed at the Branded Outlet in compliance with MPC’s image standards for MARATHON® retail outlets in effect from time to time.




(b)  If MPC supplies to BUYER Brand Signage incorporating the STP® mark and/or STP® logo, BUYER’s use of such Brand Signage shall be subject to the STP® Program Rules. Moreover, BUYER agrees and acknowledges that in such case, BUYER’s right to use the STP® mark and/or STP® logo at any specific Branded Outlet (including BUYER’s right to enter into trademark use agreements with Sublicensees governing use of the STP® mark and/or STP® logo) is contingent upon the continuation of MPC’s license to these marks from AASTP with respect to the specific Branded Outlet at issue, and upon termination of such license by AASTP with respect to the specific Branded Outlet at issue, BUYER’s use of such Brand Signage will terminate and be of no force or effect with respect to the specific Branded Outlet at issue.




(c)  Unless otherwise agreed in writing by MPC and BUYER, any Brand Signage provided by MPC to BUYER or a Sublicensee at any time shall be and shall remain the property of MPC. BUYER shall not relocate any Brand Signage furnished by MPC from one Branded Outlet to another, or to any other retail location, without MPC s prior written consent.




(d)  BUYER shall be responsible for all of the costs and expenses of maintenance and operation of all Brand Signage. BUYER agrees to keep, and cause each Sublicensee to keep, all Brand Signage in good repair and condition at all times.




(e)  Prior to the sale, lease or other disposition of a Branded Outlet upon which Brand Signage owned by MPC is located, BUYER will, or will cause the Sublicensee of the Branded Outlet to inform the other party to such transaction of MPC s ownership thereof.




5.7           Independent Business Relationship. MPC and BUYER are, and will remain, separate and independent business enterprises. Neither of the Parties shall have the right to direct or control the other Party or the Party’s business operations or the other Party’s employees or agents. BUYER has no authority to act, or employ any person to act, as an agent for or on behalf of MPC. This Agreement is not intended to create, and shall not be construed to create, a relationship of partner or joint venture or an association for profit between the Parties.

6.           PRESERVING BRAND VALUE




6.1           Appearance and Customer Satisfaction. BUYER acknowledges that the appearance of, and customer experience at, every one of MPC’s Branded Outlets reflects on the good will value of the MARATHON® brand to every MPC customer and to MPC, and are essential to the reputation of the Marks and Products. BUYER accordingly agrees, and agrees to cause the Sublicensees, while this Agreement remains in effect, to:




(a)           fulfill, at each Branded Outlet, the appearance and customer service objectives and expectations established from time to time by MPC for MARATHON® branded outlets;




(b)           refrain from the sale, use, storage, rent, display, or offering of:




(1)  pornographic or sexually explicit magazines, videotapes, compact disks, digital video disks, similar literature or items of merchandise at any Branded Outlet; and




(2)  any item, in MPC’s judgment, that’s intended or designed for use in




ingesting, inhaling, or otherwise consuming an illegal drug or for manufacturing or processing of an illegal drug, including but not limited to, pipes, tubes, roach clips, instructions or descriptive materials, or containers for concealing illegal drugs or paraphernalia;




(c)           refrain from charging [***] for Products sold during a declared or undeclared crisis or emergency; and




(d)           train employees and establish and enforce reasonable controls, procedures and safeguards for the detection and prevention at the Branded Outlets of:




(1)  skimming, identity theft, and other forms of fraud involving the use of credit cards and other electronic payment products;




(2)  the sale of tobacco or alcohol content products to underage customers; and




(3)  illegal gambling or other gaming activity.




For the avoidance of doubt, the appearance and customer service objectives and expectations of MPC in effect on the date of this Agreement are represented by the requirements of this Agreement and by mystery shop assessments conducted pursuant to MPC’s “Customer First Improvement Program” guide. MPC reserves the right to change, from time to time during the Term, its appearance and customer service objectives and expectations, to change the terms and conditions of, and manner of implementing the “Customer First Improvement Program” guide and mystery shop assessments, to discontinue the “Customer First Improvement Program”, and to institute other programs and assessment methods in furtherance of MPC’s appearance and customer service objectives and expectations, provided that such changes shall be applicable to all members of the jobber class of trade.

6.2           Assessments. BUYER acknowledges that BUYER has received, read and understands, and will ensure that each Sublicensee has received, read and understands MPC’s “Customer First Improvement Program” guide. If a “mystery shop” or other assessment of a Banded Outlet indicates that MPC’s appearance and customer service objectives and expectations are not being fulfilled at a Branded Outlet, BUYER agrees to promptly take, or to cause the Sublicensee of the Branded Outlet to take, any corrective measures recommended by MPC and reasonably related to the improvement of customer service at or the appearance of the Branded Outlet. BUYER agrees that the failure of any Branded Outlet to achieve a satisfactory score on more than three (3) consecutive mystery shop or other assessments of the Branded Outlet, due to causes reasonably related to the improvement of appearance or customer satisfaction at the Branded Outlet, is the failure to fulfill MPC’s appearance and customer service objectives and expectations. MPC reserves the right to charge BUYER for all or a portion of the cost incurred in conducting any mystery shop or other assessment at the Branded Outlets. MPC will assess a fee or charge for mystery shops at the Branded Outlets only in accordance with the fees or charges applied generally to the Marathon branded jobber class of trade.




6.3           Care and Handling of Products. BUYER agrees, and shall cause each Sublicensee, to:




(a)  establish, for the Branded Outlets, procedures for the routine inspection and sampling of above ground and underground storage tanks and dispenser filters, so as to detect the presence of excessive water or sediment levels, microbiological growth, or other potential causes of Product contamination;




(b)  take immediate corrective action upon discovery of any defective Products at a Branded Outlet, regardless of cause, and regardless whether discovered by BUYER, MPC or a Sublicensee, and discontinue the sale of defective Products immediately upon discovery;




(c)  refrain from the sale of Products which do not comply with applicable Reid Vapor Pressure, oxygenated gasoline, low-sulfur diesel, and reformulated gasoline standards;




(d)  comply with all applicable laws, regulations and ordinances (1) relating to the storage, transportation, dispensing, and sale of the Products; or (2) otherwise relevant to the operation of motor fuel retail outlets.




(e)  keep all dispensers, pumps, nozzles, tanks, hoses, Stage II Vapor Recovery equipment (where applicable) and other equipment designed and intended for the storage, dispensing, and sale of the Products clean and in good working condition at all times; and




(f)  periodically train BUYER and Sublicensee employees in handling, sampling, and oversight for Reid Vapor Pressure, oxygenated gasoline low-sulfur diesel, and reformulated gasoline standards compliance.




6.4           Credit Cards.




(a)  If, and so long as, BUYER accepts card payment products for purchases of services provided and merchandise sold at Retail Outlets operated by BUYER, BUYER agrees to honor, and will cause the Sublicensees to honor, the Marathon Cards for purchases of services provided and merchandise sold at or from the Retail Outlets. MPC has no obligation to issue, endorse or sponsor, and reserves the right to discontinue issuing, endorsing or sponsoring, any or all of the Marathon Cards at any time.




15


(b)  MPC agrees to accept any receipts, for sales transactions at the Retail Outlets using the Marathon Cards and third party credit cards authorized by MPC, that are completed and submitted in strict compliance with the rules, regulations, requirements and procedures for approving and processing such receipts established by MPC from time to time and set forth in MPC’s Credit Card Handbook. BUYER acknowledges that (1) BUYER has received, read and understands MPC’s Credit Card Handbook n effect on the date of this Agreement; and (2) a current version of the Credit Card Handbook is accessible in electronic form via MPC’s eMpowered Marketing portal. MPC reserves the right to revise its Credit Card Handbook from time to time.




(c)  MPC will credit to BUYER’s account, or pay BUYER by EFT accepted card sales transaction receipts, net of applicable discounts in effect from time to time and published in MPC’s Credit Card Handbook; except that if BUYER directs MPC to pay a Sublicensee directly for accepted receipts for card sales transactions at the Branded Outlet operated by the Sublicensee, MPC will pay the Sublicensee directly for accepted card sales transaction receipts, net of applicable discounts in effect from time to time and published in MPC’s Credit Card Handbook. MPC reserves the right to charge back, and BUYER agrees to promptly refund to MPC on demand, the amount credited or paid for any receipt for any card sales transaction which is subject to chargeback under MPC’s Credit Card Handbook including, but not limited to, a receipt for a transaction which is not conducted at the Retail Outlets, or which for any reason is disputed by the cardholder. If MPC pays BUYER an accepted receipt for a card sales transaction at a Retail Outlet operated by a Sublicensee, BUYER agrees to indemnify, defend and hold MPC harmless from claims of the Sublicensee for payment of the receipt. BUYER shall abide by all laws and regulations regarding the acceptance and processing of credit cards and debit cards.




(d)  BUYER will ensure that each of Sublicensee receives, reads and understands MPC’s rules, regulations, requirements and procedures for accepting and processing credit card receipts in effect from time to time and set forth in [***].




(e)  BUYER will use, and will ensure that each Sublicensee uses:




(1)  point of sale equipment and associated software that have been certified




by MPC for electronically submitting receipts for card sales transactions to MPC’s proprietary credit card system; and




(2)  MPC’s proprietary credit card system for the processing receipts for




Marathon Card sales transactions.




MPC will, from time to time, provide software updates for use with certified point of sale equipment. BUYER will install, and ensure that each Sublicensee installs, such updates in a timely manner.

(f)           BUYER acknowledges and agrees that fraud resulting from theft, copying, skimming or other compromise of the security and privacy of electronic information contained in credit cards processed at any of the Branded Outlets reflect negatively on the MARATHON® brand and the reputation of the Products, such that prevention thereof is reasonable and of material significance to the relationship between the Parties.




(g)           MPC shall have the right, but not the obligation, to withhold amounts due under this Agreement to BUYER for Marathon Card and third party credit card receipts, and apply such amounts toward the payment of any indebtedness owed by BUYER to MPC or its subsidiaries.




7.           TERMINATION, NONRENEWAL, REVOCATION OF APPROVAL




7.1           Termination/Revocation of Approval.




(a)           Buyers use of the Marks in connection with the sale of Products from or supply of Products to Branded Outlets is subject to and governed by the PMPA. Nothing in this Agreement should be interpreted to limit in any way the right of MPC to terminate or non-renew its relationship with BUYER for any reason authorized by the PMPA. MPC’s right to terminate or non-renew under the PMPA its relationship with BUYER shall be in addition to any and all other rights and remedies otherwise available to it under this Agreement or otherwise.

(d)           MPC has the right to revoke its approval of the use of the Marks and Brand




Signage by any Sublicensee that is not in compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement relating to the use of the Marks and Brand Signage, with MPC’s then current mage or identification standards, or then-current appearance and customer service objectives and expectations, or that is in default of any obligation, condition, representation or warranty under the agreement executed between BUYER and the Sublicensee pursuant to Section 5.1(c). The revocation of MPC approval of any Sublicensee does not constitute a termination or nonrenewal of this Agreement or the relationship between MPC and BUYER.




(e)           MPC has the right to revoke its approval of the use of the Marks by any




Sublicensee determined by MPC at any time during the Term as being identified on, or as having a shareholder, member, owner or group of owners of a controlling interest, director,

(f)           Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, no termination of this Agreement or




nonrenewal of the relationship between them, by mutual agreement or otherwise, shall release the obligations of the Parties under any Improvement Agreement, Marketer’s Agreement, mage Agreement, Master Agreement, Conversion Agreement, Branding Agreement, or similar agreement between the Parties, however denominated, and whenever executed.




7.2           BUYER’s Debranding Obligations. Upon termination of this Agreement or nonrenewal of the relationship between MPC and BUYER, or in the event of the revocation of MPC’s approval of the use of the Marks at any Branded Outlet or by any Sublicensee, BUYER will, or will cause the Sublicensee to, as applicable, immediately:




(a)  cease the use and display of the Marks and Brand Signage at any Branded Outlet that is subject to such termination, nonrenewal or revocation;




(b)  remove, obliterate or permanently paint over (in color(s) which shall not be




confused with MPC’s colors) all Brand Signage and other terms, at any such Branded Outlet, bearing any of the Marks (whether used on buildings, dispensers, canopies, valance shirts, equipment, tanks, trucks, automobiles, websites or stationery and other business documents);




(c)  deliver all Brand Signage located at such Branded Outlet to MPC’s nearest




designated warehouse, at BUYER’s expense and in the same condition as received, reasonable wear and tear excepted; and




(d)  discontinue acceptance of the Marathon Cards, and remove and return to MPC, in good working order, any credit card imprinter, OMNI and other equipment belonging to MPC and in the possession of BUYER or a Sublicensee, as applicable.

If, upon termination of this Agreement or nonrenewal of the relationship between MPC and BUYER, or in the event of the revocation of MPC’s approval of the use of the Marks and Brand Signage at any Branded Outlet or by any Sublicensee, BUYER or such Sublicensee shall fail or refuse to comply with the requirements set forth in Section 7.2, BUYER agrees that MPC may take such action as may be reasonably necessary to terminate infringement of the Marks and to obtain possession of its Brand Signage and other property including, but not limited to, the right to enter upon Branded Outlet premises and remove or obliterate all or any part of the Brand Signage and Marks, which actions shall be at BUYER’s cost and expense, including payment of attorneys fees and other legal costs incurred in taking such action.
