 2.4 Indemnification Procedures. 

(a) The Indemnified Person agrees that within a reasonable period of time after it becomes aware of facts giving rise to a claim for
indemnification under this Article 2, it will provide notice thereof in writing to the Indemnifying Party, specifying the nature of and specific basis for such claim. 

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to control all aspects of the defense of (and any counterclaims with respect to) any claims
brought against the Indemnified Person that are covered by the indemnification under this Article 2, including the selection of counsel, determination of whether to appeal any decision of any court and the settling of any such claim or any
matter or any issues relating thereto; provided, however, that no such settlement for only the payment of money shall be entered into without the consent of the Indemnified Person, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed, unless it includes a full release of the Indemnified Person from such claim; provided further, that no such settlement containing any form of injunctive or similar relief shall be entered into without the prior written consent of
the Indemnified Person, which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld. 
 (c) The Indemnified Person agrees to cooperate in
good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner with the Indemnifying Party, with respect to all aspects of the defense of and pursuit of any counterclaims with respect to any claims covered by the indemnification under this Article 2,
including the prompt furnishing to the Indemnifying Party of any correspondence or other notice relating thereto that the Indemnified Person may receive, permitting the name of the Indemnified Person to be utilized in connection with such defense

Indemnifying Party of any employees of the Indemnified Person and the granting to the Indemnifying Party of reasonable access rights to

thereof on the operations of the Indemnified Person and further agrees to maintain the confidentiality of all files, records, and other information furnished by the Indemnified Person pursuant to this Section 2.4. The obligation of the
Indemnified Person to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall not be construed as imposing upon the Indemnified Person an obligation to hire and pay for counsel in connection with the defense of
and pursuit of any counterclaims with respect to any claims covered by the indemnification set forth in this Article 2; provided, however, that the Indemnified Person may, at its own option, cost and expense, hire and pay for counsel
in connection with any such defense and counterclaims. The Indemnifying Party agrees to keep any such counsel hired by the Indemnified Person informed as to the status of any such defense or counterclaim, but the Indemnifying Party shall have the
right to retain sole control over such defense and counterclaims so long as the Indemnified Person is still seeking indemnification hereunder. 

(d) In determining the amount of any loss, cost, damage or expense for which the Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification under this
Agreement, the gross amount of the indemnification will be reduced by (i) any insurance proceeds realized by the Indemnified Person from third party insurers, and such correlative insurance benefit shall be net of any expenses related to the
receipt of such proceeds, including any premium adjustments that become due and payable by the Indemnified Person as a result of such claim, and (ii) all amounts recovered by the Indemnified Person under contractual indemnities from third
Persons.

General and Administrative Services 

3.1 General. SPLC agrees to provide, and agrees to cause its Affiliates to provide, to the Partnership Group, for the Partnership
Group’s benefit, the centralized general and administrative services that SPLC and its Affiliates have traditionally provided in connection 

  
 11 








 
with the ownership and operation of the Joint Venture Entities, which consist of the services set forth on Schedule C (the “General and Administrative Services”). In
performing the General and Administrative Services, SPLC and its Affiliates shall be entitled to contract with third parties on behalf of and as agent for (but without fiduciary liability to) any Group Member. SPLC agrees to, or cause its Affiliates
to, provide the Partnership Group with the General and Administrative Services in a manner at or above industry standards (as determined by SPLC). 

3.2 Administrative Fee. 

(a) As consideration for the General and Administrative Services, the Partnership will pay SPLC a fee (the “Administrative
Fee”) of $8.5 million per year, payable in equal monthly installments as provided in Section 3.4. The Administrative Fee for the 2014 fiscal year will be prorated based on the number of days from the Closing Date to
December 31, 2014. 
 (b) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Fee may change each calendar year, as determined by
the General Partner in good faith, to accurately reflect the degree and extent of the General and Administrative Services provided to the Partnership Group and may be adjusted to reflect, among other things, the contribution, acquisition or
disposition of assets to or by the Partnership Group or to reflect any change in the cost of providing General and Administrative Services to the Partnership Group due to inflation and to changes in any law, rule or regulation applicable to the SPLC
Entities or the Partnership Group, including any interpretation of such laws, rules or regulations. 
 (c) From time to time, but not more
frequently that once during any calendar year: 
 (i) the General Partner will have the right to submit to SPLC a proposal to
reduce the amount of the Administrative Fee for the following twelve-month period or a portion thereof if the General Partner believes, in good faith, that the prospective value of the General and Administrative Services to be performed by SPLC and
its Affiliates (other than the Partnership Group) for the benefit of the Partnership Group will be less than the Administrative Fee in effect as such time; and 

(ii) SPLC may propose to increase the Administrative Fee for the following twelve-month period or a portion thereof if SPLC
believes, in good faith, that the prospective cost of the General and Administrative Services to be performed by SPLC and its Affiliates (other than the Partnership Group) for the benefit of the Partnership Group (including costs incurred by reason
of the Partnership’s acquisition or development of assets or changes in the complexity of the Partnership’s operations) will exceed the Administrative Fee in effect at such time. 

If either Party submits such a proposal to the other Party, both Parties will negotiate in good faith to determine if the Administrative Fee
should be changed and, if so, the amount of such change. If the Parties agree that the Administrative Fee should be changed, then the Administrative Fee shall be changed as of the first day of the month following such agreement.

registrar and transfer agent fees, tax return and Schedule K-1 preparation and distribution, legal fees and independent director compensation, incurred by SPLC and its Affiliates (other than the Partnership Group) on behalf of the Partnership Group,

Such reimbursements shall be made in accordance with Section 3.4. For the avoidance of doubt, Reimbursable Expenses shall be paid by the Partnership in addition to, and not as a part of or included in, the Administrative Fee.

through the end of such month and not previously paid by the Partnership. The Partnership shall, within ten calendar days of receipt, pay such invoice, except for any Reimbursable Expenses therein being disputed in good faith by the Partnership. Any
amounts that the Partnership has disputed in good faith and that are later determined by any court or other competent authority having jurisdiction, or by agreement of the Parties, to be owing from the Partnership shall be paid in full within ten

 ARTICLE 4 

Licenses of Marks 
 4.1
Grant of Shell License. Shell hereby grants to the Partnership and to each entity comprising a part of the Partnership Group, subject to third party rights and to the terms and conditions herein, a royalty-free, non-exclusive license in the
United States Area to use the trade name “SHELL” or “Shell” as part of its company name and to use the trade name “SHELL” or “Shell” and the Shell “Pecten” design as part of its company
identification, in each case to indicate such company’s affiliation with the Shell brand on stationery, business cards, business forms, company publications and press releases, company marketing materials (including promotional merchandise),
company public filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and other regulatory authorities, and company websites or social media presences, subject to Shell’s prior written approval as to the form and manner of such
identifications, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld by Shell. The trade name “SHELL” or “Shell” and the Shell “Pecten” design are collectively referred to herein as the “Shell Marks.”

 4.2 Ownership and Quality of Shell Marks. The Partnership, on behalf of itself and the other Group Members, agrees that ownership
of the Shell Marks and the goodwill relating thereto shall remain vested in Shell and its affiliates, during the term of the Shell License and thereafter. The Partnership agrees, and agrees to cause the other Group Members, never to challenge,
contest or question the validity of Shell’s or the applicable Shell affiliate’s ownership of the Shell Marks or any registration thereof by Shell or the applicable Shell affiliate. In connection with the use of the Shell Marks, the
Partnership and any other Group Member shall not in any manner represent that they have any ownership in the Shell Marks or registration thereof. The Partnership, on behalf of itself and the other Group Members, acknowledges that the use of the
Shell Marks by the Partnership or the other Group Members shall not create any right, title or interest in or to the Shell Marks, and all use of the Shell Marks by the Partnership or any other Group Member shall inure to the benefit of Shell or the
applicable Shell affiliate. The Partnership agrees, and agrees to cause the other Group Members, to use the Shell Marks, if at all, in accordance with such quality standards established by Shell or any of its affiliates (excluding the Partnership
Group) and communicated to the Partnership Group from time to time. The Parties agree that the products and services offered by the Partnership as of the Closing Date are of a quality that is acceptable to Shell. If Shell or the applicable Shell
affiliate elects to modify or change the quality standards or format of the Shell Marks, then the Partnership shall modify or change, and shall cause the other Group Members or licensees hereunder to change, the format of the Shell Marks within six
months of prior written notice from SPLC of such modification or change in the quality standards or format of the Shell Marks. 
 4.3 In the
event that the Partnership or any of the other Group Members or licensees hereunder (the “Mark Licensees”) is in material breach of this Article 4, Shell shall transmit written notice of such material breach to the Partnership, and
the relevant Mark Licensee shall have 60 days to cure such material breach. If the Mark Licensee cures such material breach, then the license to such Mark Licensee shall continue to in force and effect. If the Mark Licensee fails to cure such
material breach within such sixty 60-day period, then Shell shall have the right to terminate the license grant to such Mark Licensee, however, the license to the remaining Mark Licensees shall continue in force and effect.

 4.4 Termination. The Shell License shall terminate automatically upon a Partnership Change
of Control. 
 ARTICLE 5 

Miscellaneous 
 5.1
Confidentiality. 
 (a) From and after the Closing Date, each of the Parties shall hold, and shall cause their respective
Subsidiaries and Affiliates and its and their directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants, advisors, and other representatives (collectively, “Representatives”) to hold all Confidential Information disclosed to a Party
hereunder in strict confidence, with at least the same degree of care that applies to such Party’s confidential and proprietary information and shall not use such Confidential Information and shall not release or disclose such Confidential
Information to any other Person, except its Representatives or except as required by applicable law. Each Party shall be responsible for any breach of this section by any of its Representatives. 

(b) If a Party receives a subpoena or other demand for disclosure of Confidential Information received from any other Party or must disclose to
a Governmental Authority any Confidential Information received from such other Party in order to obtain or maintain any required governmental approval, the receiving Party shall, to the extent legally permissible, provide notice to the providing
Party before disclosing such Confidential Information. Upon receipt of such notice, the providing Party shall promptly either seek an appropriate protective order, waive the receiving Party’s confidentiality obligations hereunder to the extent
necessary to permit the receiving Party to respond to the demand, or otherwise fully satisfy the subpoena or demand or the requirements of the applicable Governmental Authority. If the receiving Party is legally compelled to disclose such
Confidential Information or if the providing Party does not promptly respond as contemplated by this Section 5.1, the receiving Party may disclose that portion of Confidential Information covered by the notice or demand. 

(c) Each Party acknowledges that the disclosing Party would not have an adequate remedy at law for the breach by the receiving Party of
any one or more of the covenants contained in this Section 5.1 and agrees that, in the event of such breach, the disclosing Party may, in addition to the other remedies that may be available to it, apply to a court for an injunction to
prevent breaches of this Section 5.1 and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Section 5.1. Notwithstanding any other Section hereof, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the provisions of this
Section 5.1 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 
 5.2 Choice of Law; Arbitration; Submission to
Jurisdiction. 
 (a) This Agreement shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of Texas, excluding any conflicts-of-law
rule or principle that might refer the construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the laws of another state. 

  
 15 








 (b) The Parties agree that any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to this
Agreement shall be settled by submission to binding arbitration in Houston, Texas, such arbitration to be conducted as follows: If the Parties cannot resolve any such dispute, controversy, or claim, then no earlier than 10 days following written
notice to the other Parties, any Party may initiate binding arbitration by giving a notice of intent to arbitrate to the other Parties to such dispute, controversy, or claim. SPLC, on behalf of the affected SPLC Entities, and the General Partner, on
behalf of the affected Group Members, will each select a single arbitrator within 15 days of the delivery of the notice of intent to arbitrate by any Party. The arbitrators must be attorneys familiar by training and experience with midstream
operations, master limited partnerships and Texas law or otherwise specialized or skilled so as to be fit for the nature of the dispute. The two selected arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator who will serve as the chairman. In addition, the
arbitrators must be impartial and independent of the parties to such dispute, controversy, or claim. If a Party is unable or unwilling to select an arbitrator within 15 days of the notice of intent to arbitrate, then the single selected arbitrator
shall select the third arbitrator and those two arbitrators shall select the other Party’s arbitrator. The arbitration proceeding shall be governed by Texas law and shall be informal and expeditious and conducted in such manner as to result in
a good faith resolution as soon as reasonably possible under the circumstances. A hearing, if one is desired by the arbitrators, shall be held in Houston, Texas, no later than 15 days after selection of all of the arbitrators. The arbitrators shall
set the schedule and requirements for any further proceedings and move the arbitration to completion as soon as reasonably practicable. It is the intent of the Parties, subject to any agreement or ruling to the contrary, that they may present such
evidence and witnesses as they may choose, with or without counsel. Adherence to formal rules of evidence shall not be required, but the arbitrators shall consider any evidence and testimony that they determine to be relevant, in accordance with
procedures that they determine to be appropriate. Any award entered in the arbitration shall be made by a written opinion stating the reasons and basis for the award made and any payment due pursuant to the arbitration shall be made within 15 days
of the arbitrators’ decision. The final decision of the arbitrators shall be binding on the Parties. Each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses of the arbitration; provided, however, that the costs of employing arbitrators shall be borne
equally by each side. 
 (c) Any Party may bring any action or proceeding to enforce the final decision of the arbitrators exclusively in any
federal or state courts located in Texas and each Party (i) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts, (ii) waives any objection to laying venue in any such action or proceeding in such courts, (iii) waives any
objection that such courts are an inconvenient forum or do not have jurisdiction over it and (iv) agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, service of process upon it may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or
certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to it at its address specified in Section 5.3. The foregoing consents to jurisdiction and service of process shall not constitute general consents to service of
process in the State of Texas for any purpose except as provided herein and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the Parties. 

5.3 Notice. All notices, requests, demands, and other communications hereunder will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly
given: (a) if by transmission by facsimile or hand delivery, when delivered; (b) if mailed via the official governmental mail system, five business days after mailing, provided said notice is sent first class, postage pre-paid, via
certified or registered mail, with a return receipt requested; (c) if mailed by an internationally-recognized overnight express mail service such as FedEx, UPS, or DHL Worldwide, one Business Day after deposit therewith is prepaid; or
(d) if by e-mail, one business day after delivery with receipt is confirmed. All notices will be addressed to the Parties at the respective addresses as follows.
