	REGULATORY  MATTERS




(a)As of the date of this Agreement, the shipment of crude petroleum and refined petroleum products on the Short Haul Pipelines are not subject to regulation by the State of Utah.


(b)TLO has received a ruling by the FERC that the Short Haul Pipelines (excluding the UNEV Connection) are not subject to FERC jurisdiction. The Parties agree that the same factors that were relied upon by the FERC to make such determination also apply to the UNEV Connection. TRMC  agrees that it will not, during the Term, challenge or assist others in challenging TLO's exemption from  FERC regulation or seek or assist others in seeking a determination that the UNEV Connection is su ject to FERC regulation. TLO shall not take any further actions that would require any Segment (including the UNEV Connection) to subsequently become subject to regulation by the FERC, except as required by Applicable Law.


(c)The Parties are entering into this Agreement in reliance upon and shall fully comply with all Applicable Law which directly or indirectly affect the crude petroleum or refined petroleum products to be throughput hereunder, or any receipt, throughput delivery, transportation, handling or storage of crude petroleum or petroleum products hereunder or the ownership, operation or condition of the Storage Facility. Each Party shall fully comply with all Applicable Law associated with such Party's respective performance hereunder and the maintenance and operation  of such Party's facilities. In the event any action or obligation imposed upon a Party under this Agreement shall at any time be in conflict with any requirement of Applicable Law, then this Agreement shall immediately be modified to conform the action or obligation so adversely affected to the requirements of Applicable Law, and all other provisions of this Agreement shall remain effective.

(c)Upon termination of this Agreement for reasons other than (x) a default by TRMC and (y) any other termination of this Agreement initiated by TRMC pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15, TRMC shall have the right to require TLO to enter into a new transportation services agreement with TRMC that (i) is consistent with the terms set forth in this Agreement, and (ii) has commercial terms that are, in the aggregate, equal to or more favorable to TLO than fair market value terms as would be agreed by similarly-situated  parties negotiating at arm's length;



-11-




provided,  however;  that  the term  of any  such new transportation  services agreement  shall not extend beyond April 30, 2031.


(d)In the event that TLO proposes to enter into a transportation services agreement with a third party upon termination of this Agreement for reasons other than (x) a default by TRMC and (y) any other termination of this Agreement initiated by TRMC pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15, TLO shall give TRMC 90 days' prior written notice of any proposed new transportation services agreement with a third party, including (i) details of all of the material terms and conditions thereof and (ii) a thirty (30)-day period (beginning upon TRMC's receipt of such written notice) (the "First Offer Period") in which TRMC may make a good faith offer to enter into a new transportation agreement with TLO (the "Transportation Right of First Refusal"). If TRMC makes an offer on terms no less favorable to TLO than the third-party offer with respect to such transportation services agreement during the First Offer Period, then TLO shall be obligated to enter into a transportation services agreement with TRMC on the terms set forth above. If TRMC does not exercise its Transportation Right of First Refusal in the manner set forth above, TLO may, for the next ninety (90) days, proceed with the negotiation of the third-party transportation services agreement. If no third party agreement is consummated during such ninety (90)-day period, the terms and conditions of this Section 12(d) shall again become effective.

	13.
	FORCE  MAJEURE




(a)As soon as possible upon the occurrence of a Force Majeure, TLO shall provide TRMC with written notice of the occurrence of such Force Majeure (a "Force Majeure Notice"). TLO shall identify in such Force Majeure Notice the particular Segment or Segments of the Short Haul Pipelines (including the UNEV Connection) that are affected by the Force Majeure and the approximate length of time that TLO reasonably believes in good faith such Force Majeure shall continue (the "Force Majeure Period"). If TLO advises in any Force Majeure Notice that it reasonably believes in good faith that the Force Majeure Period shall continue for more than twelve (12) consecutive Months, then, subject to Section 14 below, at any time after TLO delivers such Force Majeure Notice, either Party may terminate that portion of this Agreement relating to the affected Segment, but only upon delivery to the other Party of a notice (a "Termination Notice") at least twelve (12) Months prior to the expiration of the Force Majeure



-12-




Period; provided, however, that such Termination Notice shall be deemed cancelled and of no effect if the Force Majeure ends prior to the expiration of such twelve (12)-Month period. For the avoidance of doubt, neither Party may exercise its right under this Section 13(a) to terminate this Agreement as a result of a Force Majeure with respect to any machinery, storage, tanks, lines of pipe or other equipment that has been unaffected by, or has been restored to working order since, the applicable Force Majeure, including pursuant to a Restoration under Section 14.


(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if TRMC delivers a Termination Notice  to TLO (the "TRMC Termination Notice") and, within thirty (30) days after receiving such TRMC Termination Notice, TLO notifies TRMC that TLO reasonably believes in good faith that it shall be capable of fully performing its obligations under this Agreement within a reasonable period of time, then the TRMC Termination Notice shall be deemed revoked and the applicable portion of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such TRMC Termination Notice had never been given.


(c)Subject to Section 14 below, TLO's obligations may be temporarily suspended during the occurrence of, and for the entire duration of, a Force Majeure that prevents TLO from shipping the Minimum Throughput Commitment or the UNEV Minimum Throughput Commitment. If, for reasons of Force Majeure, TLO is prevented from shipping through the Short Haul Pipelines volumes equal to the full Minimum Throughput Commitment, then TRMC's obligation to ship the Minimum Throughput Commitment and pay the Monthly Shortfall Payment shall be reduced to the extent that TLO is prevented from shipping the full Minimum Throughput Commitment. At such time as TLO is capable of shipping through the Short Haul Pipelines volumes equal to the Minimum Throughput Commitment, TRMC's obligation to ship the full Minimum Throughput Commitment shall be restored. If, for reasons of Force Majeure, TLO is prevented from delivering through the UNEV Connection volumes equal to the full UNEV Minimum Throughput Commitment, then TRMC's obligation to deliver the UNEV Minimum Throughput Commitment shall be reduced to the extent that TLO is prevented from shipping the full UNEV Minimum Throughput Commitment. At such time as TLO is capable of delivering  through the UNEV Connection volumes equal to the UNEV Minimum Throughput Commitment, TRMC's obligation to deliver the full UNEV Minimum Throughput Commitment shall be restored. In addition, if TRMC is prevented from receiving crude petroleum from the Crude Pipelines as a result of a Force Majeure event affecting the Storage Facility or other facilities owned by TLO, its obligation to ship the Minimum Throughput Commitment shall be reduced accordingly. TLO agrees that it shall declare a Force Majeure if TLO is prevented from shipping volumes equal to the full Minimum Throughput Commitment or the full UNEV Minimum Throughput Commitment due to the inability of any pipeline connecting to the Short Haul Pipelines to supply or accept crude petroleum or refined petroleum products, as applicable.

	CAPABILITIES OF SHORT HAUL PIPELINES




(a)Interruptions  of  Service.  TLO shall use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize the interruption of service on the Short Haul Pipelines and any Segment thereof (including the UNEV Connection). TLO shall promptly inform TRMC of any anticipated partial or complete interruption of service which is projected to extend more than twenty-four (24) hours on any part of the Short Haul Pipelines affecting TLO's ability to receive or deliver crude



-13-




petroleum or refined petroleum products on any Segment of the Short Haul Pipelines (including the  UNEV  Connection),  including  relevant  information  about  the  nature,  extent,  cause  and expected duration of the interruption and the actions TLO is taking to resume full operations, provided that TLO shall not have any liability for any failure to notify, or delay in notifying, TRMC of any such matters except to the extent TRMC has been materially prejudiced or damaged by such failure or delay.


(b)Maintenance and Repair Standards.


(i)Subject to Force Majeure, interruptions for routine repair and maintenance consistent with  customary crude petroleum and refined petroleum products pipeline standards, and any applicable regulatory requirements, TLO shall accept for shipment on the Short Haul Pipelines in accordance with pipeline industry standards all crude petroleum and refined petroleum products that TRMC requests TLO to transport. Further, TLO shall  maintain and repair all portions of the Short Haul Pipelines in accordance with pipeline industry standards and in a manner which allows the Short Haul Pipelines to be capable, subject to Force Majeure, of shipping, storing and delivering volumes of crude petroleum and refined petroleum products which are no less than the Minimum Throughput Capacity and the UNEV Connection to be capable, subject to Force Majeure, of delivering volumes of refined petroleum products which are no less than the UNEV Minimum Throughput Capacity.


(ii)If for any reason, including without limitation a Force Majeure event, the throughput capacity of any Segment of the Short Haul Pipelines should fall below the Minimum Throughput Capacity, or the throughput capacity of the UNEV Connection should fall below the UNEV Minimum Throughput Capacity then (A) during such period of reduced throughput capacity, TRMC's obligation to ship the Minimum Throughput Commitment or to deliver the UNEV Minimum Throughput Commitment, applicable shall be reduced as described in Section 13(c) above and (B) within a reasonable period of time after the commencement of such reduction, TLO shall make repairs to and/or replace the affected portion of the Short Haul Pipelines or the UNEV Connection to restore the capacity of each Segment to the required Minimum Throughput Capacity and the capacity of the UNEV Connection to the required UNEV Minimum Throughput Capacity ("Restoration"). Except as provided below in Sections 14(c) and 14(d), all such Restoration shall be at TLO' s cost and expense unless the damage creating the need for such repairs was caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of TRMC, its employees, agents or customers.


(iii)Notwithstanding the above provlSlons, except pursuant to a Capacity Expansion requested by TRMC, TLO shall not be required to install any additional pumping capacity or other improvements on the Crude Pipelines to facilitate shipment of a heavier grade of crude petroleum than has historically been shipped to  the  Storage Facility for use in the SLC Refinery. Upon request by TRMC for upgraded capacity for shipment of heavier crude petroleum grades in connection with a Restoration, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith arrangements whereby TLO will install suitable upgrades to the Crude Pipelines, consistent with Applicable Law, accepted pipeline design and operating   procedures   that   will   allow   shipment   of  volumes   of   such   heavier   crude

-14-




petroleum commensurate with historical volumes of lighter crude petroleum shipments, with TRMC to reimburse TLO for associated capital costs and increased operating costs, as otherwise provided herein.


(c)Capacity Resolution. In the event of the failure of TLO to maintain any Segment of the Short Haul Pipelines at its Minimum Throughput Capacity or its UNEV Minimum Throughput Capacity, then either Party shall have the right to call a meeting between executives of both Parties by providing at least two (2) Business Days' advance written notice. Any such meeting shall be held at a mutually agreeable location and will be attended by executives of both Parties each having sufficient authority to commit his or her respective Party to a Capacity Resolution (hereinafter defined). At the meeting, the Parties will negotiate in good faith with the objective of reaching a joint resolution for the Restoration of capacity on the affected portion of the Short Haul Pipelines which will, among other things, specify steps to be taken by TLO to fully accomplish Restoration and the deadlines by which the Restoration must be completed (the "Capacity Resolution"). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Capacity Resolution shall set forth an agreed upon time schedule for the Restoration activities. Such time schedule shall be reasonable under the circumstances, consistent with customary pipeline transportation industry standards and shall take into consideration TLO's economic considerations relating to costs of the repairs and TRMC's requirements concerning the operation of the SLC Refinery. In the event that TRMC's economic considerations justify incurring additional costs to restore the Short Haul Pipelines in a more expedited manner than the time schedule determined in accordance with the preceding sentence, TRMC may require TLO to expedite the Restoration to the extent reasonably possible, subject to TRMC's payment, in advance, of the estimated incremental costs to be incurred as a result of the expedited time schedule. In the event the Parties agree to an expedited Restoration plan wherein TRMC agrees to fund a portion of the Restoration cost, then neither Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13(a) above so long as such Restoration is completed with due diligence, and TRMC shall pay such portion to TLO in advance based on an estimate conforming to reasonable engineering  standards applicable to crude petroleum or products pipelines, as applicable. Upon completion, TRMC shall pay the difference between the actual portion of Restoration costs to be paid by TRMC pursuant to this Section 14(c) and the estimated amount paid under the preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after receipt ofTLO's invoice therefor, or, if appropriate, TLO shall pay TRMC the excess of the estimate paid by TRMC over TLO's actual costs as previously described within thirty (30) days after completion of the Restoration.


(d)TRMC's Right To Cure. If at any time after the occurrence of (x) a Partnership Change of Control or (y) a sale ofthe SLC Refinery, TLO either (i) refuses or fails to meet with TRMC within the period set forth in Section 14(c), (ii) fails to agree to perform a Capacity Resolution in accordance with the standards set forth in Section 14(c) or (iii) fails to perform its obligations in compliance with the terms of a Capacity Resolution, TRMC  may,  as  its  sole remedy for any breach by  TLO of any of its obligations under Section 14(c), require TLO to complete a Restoration of the affected portions of  the  Short  Haul  Pipelines.  Any  such Restoration required under this Section 14(d) shall be completed by TLO at TRMC's cost. TLO shall use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to  provide  transportation  of  crude petroleum and refined petroleum products tendered by TRMC  while such Restoration is being completed. Any work performed by TLO pursuant to this Section shall be performed and completed  in  a  good  and  workmanlike   manner  consistent  with  applicable  pipeline  industry

-15-




standards and in accordance with all Applicable Laws, rules and/or regulations.  Additionally, during such period after the occurrence of (A) a Partnership Change of Control or (B) a sale of the SLC Refinery, TRMC may exercise any remedies available to it under this Agreement (other than termination), including the right to immediately seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief for specific performance  by TLO of the applicable provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the obligation to make Restorations described herein.


		
	15.
	SUSPENSION  OF SLC REFINERY  OPERATIONS




(a)In the event that TRMC decides to permanently or indefinitely suspend refining operations at the SLC Refinery for a period that shall continue for at least twelve (12) consecutive Months, TRMC may provide written notice to TLO of TRMC's intent to terminate this  Agreement  (the  "Suspension  Notice").    Such Suspension Notice shall be sent at any time after TRMC has publicly announced such suspension and, upon the expiration of the twelve (12) Month period following the date such notice is sent (the "Notice Period"), this Agreement shall terminate. If TRMC publicly announces, more than two Months prior to the expiration of the Notice Period, its intent to resume operations at the SLC Refinery, then the Suspension Notice shall be deemed revoked and the applicable portion of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such Suspension Notice had never been delivered.


(b)If refining operations at the SLC Refinery are suspended for any reason (including refinery turnaround operations and other scheduled maintenance), then  TRMC  shall  remain liable for Monthly Shortfall Payments and UNEV Demand Charges under this Agreement for the duration of the suspension, unless and until this  Agreement is terminated as provided above. TRMC shall provide at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice of any suspension of operations at the SLC Refinery due to a planned turnaround or scheduled maintenance. Monthly Shortfall Payments due for each Month during which TRMC does not ship any volumes on the Short Haul Pipelines will be equal to (i) the Minimum Throughput Commitment multiplied by (ii) the Transportation  Fee.

Any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be waived in writing at any time by the Party entitled to the benefits thereof. No waiver of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or any breach thereof, will be effective unless in writing signed by a duly authorized individual on behalf of the Party against which the waiver is sought to be enforced. No waiver of any term or condition or of any breach of this Agreement will be deemed or will constitute a waiver of any other term or condition or of any later breach (whether or not similar), nor will such waiver constitute a continuing  waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.
