 4. STORAGE AND TRANSPORTATION FEE 
 4.1 Storage and Transportation Fee. MPC shall pay a monthly fee (the “Storage and Transportation Fee”), for storage and transportation services, including pumping services and services
utilizing the piping associated with the Cavern equal to (a) the Current Rate multiplied by (b) the Commitment; provided, however, that the fee owed during the Month in which the Effective Date occurs shall be prorated in accordance

year. Each month during the Term, MTS shall issue an invoice to MPC for amounts due for the preceding month, and payment shall be due and payable within fifteen (15) Days from the date of invoice. Any past due amounts owed by MPC to MTS shall
accrue interest, payable on demand, at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum from the due date of the payment through the actual date of payment. 
 4.2 Adjustments to the Commitment. The Commitment will be decreased due to any of the following: 
  

	(a)	With respect to any period in which MTS is required to provide any of the Cavern’s capacity to any third party in order to comply with any Applicable Law, the
Commitment shall be reduced to equal the volume of capacity in the Cavern that is available for MPC’s use during such period; 

  

	(b)	With respect to any period in which MTS is unable to provide storage services with respect to the entire Commitment due to the occurrence of a Force Majeure event, then
the Commitment shall be reduced to equal the volume of capacity in the Cavern that is available for MPC’s use during the period of such Force Majeure event; 

 

	(c)	With respect to any period in which MTS is unable to provide storage services with respect to the entire Commitment due to MTS’s repair or maintenance activities,
then the Commitment shall be reduced to equal the volume of capacity in the Cavern that is available for MPC’s use during the period of any such repair or maintenance activity; and 

 

	(d)	With respect to any period in which MTS is unable to provide storage services with respect to the entire Commitment due to structural changes in the Cavern, then
MPC’s obligations shall be reduced to equal the volume of capacity in the Cavern that is available for MPC’s use following such structural changes. 

 If the Commitment is reduced in accordance with this Section 4.2, then the Storage and Transportation Fee for any Month containing any portion of the period in which such reduction is in effect will
be calculated based upon the average Commitment in effect during such Month.

 4.3 Reimbursement by MPC. 

 

	(a)	In addition to MPC’s obligation to pay the Storage and Transportation Fee pursuant to Section 4.1, MPC shall reimburse MTS for, or MTS shall be entitled to
increase the Current Rate by, an amount sufficient to cover the following: 

  

	 	(i)	MPC’s proportionate share of the costs of complying with any new Applicable Laws or regulations that affect the storage services provided to MPC under this
Agreement if, after MTS has made efforts to mitigate the effect of such Applicable Laws or regulations, such new Applicable Laws and regulations require MTS to make additional capital expenditures. The Parties will negotiate in good faith to agree
on the amount of any reimbursement or corresponding increase in the Current Rate; 

  

	 	(ii)	actual costs of any capital expenditures MTS agrees to make at MPC’s request; and

service at the Cavern, including relevant information about the nature, extent, cause and expected duration of the interruption and the actions MTS is taking to resume full operations; provided, however, that MTS shall not have any liability
for any failure to notify, or delay in notifying, MPC of any such matters except to the extent MPC has been materially prejudiced or damaged by such failure or delay. 
 5.2 Maintenance and Repair Standards. Subject to Force Majeure and interruptions for routine repair and maintenance consistent with customary storage cavern industry standards, MTS shall maintain
the Cavern in a condition and with a capacity sufficient to store the Commitment.

addressed by another provision of this Agreement and which has a material adverse economic impact upon a Party, then either Party, acting in good faith, shall have the option to request renegotiation of the relevant provisions of this Agreement with

 14. DEFAULT AND TERMINATION 

14.1 Termination for Default. A Party shall be in default under this Agreement if: 

 

	(a)	the Party materially breaches any provision of this Agreement and such breach is not cured within fifteen (15) Days after notice thereof (which notice shall
describe such breach in reasonable detail) is received by such Party; provided however, that if such breach is not capable of being cured within fifteen (15) Days but the defaulting party promptly commences and diligently prosecutes such
cure, then such cure period will be extended for up to an additional ninety (90) Days; or 

  

	(b)	the Party (A) files a petition or otherwise commences, authorizes or acquiesces in the commencement of a proceeding or cause of action under any bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or similar Applicable Law, or has any such petition filed or commenced against it, (B) makes general assignment for the benefit of creditors, (C) otherwise becomes bankrupt or insolvent (however evidenced) or
(D) has a liquidator, administrator, receiver, trustee, conservator or similar official appointed with respect to it or any substantial portion of its property or assets. 

  
 8 

 If a Party is in default as described above, then the other Party may: (i) terminate this Agreement
upon notice to the defaulting Party; (ii) withhold any payments due to the defaulting Party under this Agreement; (iii) suspend the performance of its obligations hereunder; and/or (iv) pursue any other remedy at law or in equity.

 14.2 Obligations at Termination. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement, (a) MPC shall promptly take delivery of
all of its Product, except the Cavern Bottoms, from the Cavern and (b) MTS shall pay MPC for the value of the Cavern Bottoms, in either case within thirty (30) Days of such termination or expiration. In the event MPC does not take delivery
of all of the Product, except the Cavern Bottoms, within such thirty (30) Day period, MPC shall be assessed a Monthly holdover storage fee on all Product, except the Cavern Bottoms, held in storage more than thirty (30) Days beyond the
termination or expiration of this Agreement until such time the entire volume of MPC’s Product, except the Cavern Bottoms, is removed from the Cavern. The Monthly holdover storage fee, if any, will be calculated on the same basis as the Storage
and Transportation Fee; provided, however, that the Commitment will be reduced by a volume equal to the Cavern Bottoms. 
 15. FORCE
MAJEURE 
 As soon as possible upon the occurrence of a Force Majeure, MTS shall provide MPC with written notice of the occurrence of such

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, at any time after MTS delivers such Force Majeure Notice, either
Party may terminate this Agreement upon delivery of a written notice to the Other Party (a “Termination Notice”) twelve (12) Months (the “Notice Period”) after receipt of such notice Termination Notice; provided
further, that such Termination Notice shall be deemed canceled and of no effect if the Force Majeure Period ends prior to the expiration of Notice Period. For the avoidance of doubt, neither Party may exercise its right under this
Section 15 to terminate this Agreement as a result of a Force Majeure event if the Cavern’s ability to store the Commitment has been unaffected by the applicable Force Majeure event. 

16. ASSIGNMENT; PARTNERSHIP CHANGE IN CONTROL

however, that either Party may assign its rights under this Agreement to a successor-in-interest resulting from any merger, reorganization, consolidation or as part of a sale of all or substantially all of such Party’s assets. This
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors and assigns of both Parties.

contained in this Section 19 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 19

the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings of the Parties in connection therewith.

	4.	EMPLOYMENT OF PERSONNEL; MANAGEMENT FEE 

 4.1 Personnel. Operator, or one of its Affiliates (other than MPC), shall employ or contract for such personnel as may be required by Operator to perform the Services. All such personnel, whether
full or part-time, who are assigned to the Systems shall at all times remain employees of Operator, or its Affiliates, and shall be subject to their respective employer’s employee benefit plans and policies. Operator shall employ reasonable
efforts to maintain the number of personnel performing Services for MPC at the optimum level and to keep them organized in a manner which will afford cost effective and efficient day-to-day operation of the Systems. 

4.2 Management Fee. Operator shall be paid a management fee (the “Management Fee”) in the amount of $11,195,500.00 per
year in twelve (12) equal monthly installments starting as of the Effective Date and payable by the first day of the month for each succeeding month thereafter. Such Management Fee shall be in addition to any Reimbursable Charges contained in
Section 8.2 and shall compensate Operator for the Services performed for MPC by Operator.

Management Fee. The Management Fee shall be adjusted annually by the same percentage that the annual “Average Hourly Earnings of Production Workers” reported in the North American Industry Classification System, Section 486, as
published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, changed during the preceding Calendar Year; provided, however, that in no event shall the Management Fee ever be adjusted to

  
 6 

 
less than $11,195,500.00 per year. Should the scope of the Services performed by Operator significantly change during the Term, either Party may immediately notify the other Party, at which time
the Parties will enter into good faith negotiations for a period of thirty (30) days to examine the change in scope of the Services and adjust the Management Fee accordingly. In the event the Parties, following such good faith negotiations,
fail to agree on an appropriate adjustment to the Management Fee, either Party may terminate this Agreement without liability to the other Party. 
 4.4 Non-Operator Personnel. For the purpose of providing the Services, Operator may utilize its common law employees, the services of leased employees or third party contractors or Affiliates. If
Operator uses third party contractors or Affiliates to provide such Services, Operator will insure that the same are qualified to perform the Services in accordance with Operator’s standards and that they coordinate all of their activities with
Operator and keep Operator fully informed of their plans and activities sufficiently in advance for Operator to perform its obligations under this Agreement. 
 4.5 Liability for Compensation, Benefits, Severance and Taxes. MPC shall only be responsible for payment of Operator’s fees and expenses as set out in this Agreement. Operator shall ensure
that all such personnel expenses incurred in connection with the personnel referred to in this Section 4 are paid, including compensation, salary, wages, overhead and administrative expenses incurred by Operator and its Affiliates and if
applicable, social security, taxes, workers compensation insurance, benefits and other such expenses. Operator shall indemnify and save harmless MPC from all claims or liability for wages, salary, taxes or benefits in respect of Operator’s
personnel. 
  

	5.	BUDGETS AND FORECAST OF REVENUE 

 5.1 Operating Budget and Capital Budget. In order to inform MPC as to the operating and capital expenditures contemplated for a forthcoming Calendar Year, to obtain MPC’s approval in respect
thereof and to provide the authority to Operator to make certain extraordinary expenditures, an expense budget, a capital budget and a forecasted statement of income and cash flow shall be prepared annually for the Systems in consultation with MPC
and presented to MPC for approval and utilized in accordance with the following: 
 (a) Preparation of Budgets and
Presentation to MPC. Operator shall prepare and submit to MPC for review and approval, each Calendar Year in accordance with MPC’s budget and forecast timing requirements, an expense budget, a capital budget and a forecasted statement of
income and cash flow, all to include the current and two (2) additional year forecasts. Such budgets shall set forth (i) the sums projected to be expended during the current Calendar Year, (ii) a proposed budget of the sums to be
expended during the next Calendar Year, (iii) the sums it proposes to expend for such purposes during the next two Calendar Years following the budget year, and (iv) such other information as is reasonably requested by MPC. It is
understood between MPC and Operator that Operator is preparing the budgets at the direction of MPC and that the Budgets are based on the most current information available to Operator both from its own knowledge of the Systems and from that
knowledge supplied to Operator by MPC. 

  
 7 

 (b) Budget Amendments. Operator may propose amendments to any budget at any time by
preparing a written budget amendment in a format similar to that described in Section 5.1(a) and by submitting it to MPC. MPC shall approve or deny any proposed amendments within thirty (30) days of submission to MPC. 

(c) Prior Budget in Effect. Until any new expense budget, capital budget, or amendment thereto is approved by MPC, the prior
budget shall remain in effect. 
 5.2 Emergency Expenditures. Operator shall be responsible for handling emergencies
occurring with respect to the Systems. In cases of emergency, Operator may proceed with expenditures for required work when such is necessary in Operator’s good faith judgment to alleviate the emergency or to reduce or eliminate damage or
danger to persons, property or the environment, without the necessity of submitting such proposed expenditures in advance for approval by MPC. In such emergency cases, Operator shall be allowed to use, in its good faith discretion, any of its or its
Affiliates’ operating or administrative personnel to take corrective action, including without limitation, the use of emergency response service assets of Operator or its Affiliates or their emergency contract agents. Costs associated with such
occurrence shall be billed directly to MPC and shall not be subject to any limitation set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement. In such event, Operator shall, as soon as practicable, by telephone notice or otherwise inform the person designated
by MPC of the existence or occurrence of the emergency, full particulars thereof, the corrective action being taken or proposed and the estimated cost, as known. Such notice shall be confirmed in writing, as soon as practicable. 

Operator has established an emergency response plan which will be provided to MPC. Operator shall comply with the plan terms and requirements in
responding to one-call and emergency notifications received, and to emergency conditions indicated at MPL’s operations center. 
 6.
CASH DEFICIENCIES 
 If, at any time, Operator determines that MPC’s cash generations are insufficient to cover cash
expenditures, including but not limited to, activities associated with the operation of the Systems as defined in this Agreement and Operator expenses chargeable to MPC, Operator will notify MPC as soon as possible. MPC shall advance to Operator on
a timely basis, and in no event in more than ten (10) business days, monies in the aggregate sufficient to cover the costs incurred by Operator in the operation of the Systems. Nothing in this Section 6 is intended to authorize
expenditures in excess of those authorized under this Agreement. 
 7. ACCOUNTING 

7.1 Records. Operator will prepare and preserve for and in the name of MPC a complete set of operating, tax and investment records
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; and, in addition, will keep and maintain for MPC an accurate and complete set of books, records, and accounts which will reflect any and all financial transactions of MPC. Such records
shall be kept in a form and in a manner so as to be able to 

  
 8 

 
readily identify them as belonging to MPC, to be accessed by MPC and to allow them to be segregated from Operator’s records. Operator shall furnish all such information and reports as may be
required for MPC’s meetings and by any federal or state agency having appropriate jurisdiction. MPC and its duly authorized representatives may, at its option and at its sole expense at all reasonable times, but not more often than once in any
Calendar Year, audit the accounts of Operator for the operation of the Systems. Nothing herein shall limit MPC’s ability to have full access to MPC’s books, accounts, records and all other documents, in the possession or control of
Operator, of whatever nature, whether prepared by Operator or otherwise, at all reasonable times. 
 Separate bank accounts will be maintained
by MPC or, by Operator if so directed by MPC, in MPC’s name, into which all revenues and receipts belonging to MPC shall be deposited and from which all payments on behalf of MPC shall be made. Operator shall have such authority as delegated by
MPC, from time to time, to manage the day to day cash receipts and disbursements through the bank accounts of MPC and to invest surplus funds from time to time, all in accordance with guidelines approved by MPC. 

7.2 Periodic Reports and Statements. Operator will analyze operating costs for control purposes, prepare cash and movements
forecasts, and will furnish monthly financial statements and such other reports, statistics, and statements relative to the operation of the Systems as MPC may reasonably request or as may be required by its financial commitments now in existence or
hereafter entered into. Operator will prepare and file or assist in the preparation and filing with the appropriate regulatory agencies, in the name of MPC, all reports required by law in connection with the ownership and operation of the Systems as
provided in Section 3.1. 
 8. SCHEDULE OF CHARGES 
 8.1 Chargeable Items. The items set forth in this Section 8 are among the items properly chargeable to the account of MPC in connection with the operation of the Systems and its facilities,

all in accordance with the approved expense or capital budget pursuant to Section 5. Operator is authorized to offer for sale on behalf of MPC from time to time to the general public worn out, defective, replaced, or idle materials, tools,
facilities or equipment of MPC provided that Operator’s estimate of the fair market value of each such item does not exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00). Any hazardous materials or wastes removed from such equipment must be

 10 

 
THE SYSTEMS INCLUDING THOSE ALLEGED TO RESULT FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF OPERATOR, EXCEPT FOR OPERATOR’S CONDUCT AMOUNTING TO GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, AND WHETHER OCCURRING AS THE

employer’s liability insurance and all other insurance required by the applicable state and federal laws. Should any state in which Operator’s (or Operator’s Affiliates’) employees perform work hereunder permit self-insurance

 10.6 Contractors and
subcontractors to Operator shall not ordinarily be required to provide performance bonds; however, Operator may require a performance bond if it deems it necessary and desirable under particular circumstances, the cost of which, if paid by Operator,
shall be reimbursed by MPC.

proceeding, the assertion of any claim by a third party or the imposition of any penalty or assessment for which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 10.2(A) or 10.2(B), and such Party intends to seek indemnity from the other Party
pursuant to this Section 10.7, such Party shall provide the other Party with written notice of such intent, within sixty (60) days of the receipt by the Party seeking indemnification of notice of such action, proceeding, claim, penalty or
assessment, and 

  
 11 

 
such other Party shall be entitled to participate in or, at such other Party’s option, assume control of the defense, appeal, settlement or remedial activities of such action, proceeding,
claim, penalty or assessment with respect to which such indemnity has been invoked, and the Party that requested indemnification will fully cooperate with the other Party in connection therewith. No Party shall settle or compromise any such action,
proceeding, claim, penalty or assessment with respect to which indemnification has been sought without the other Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 

10.8 The terms and conditions of Sections 10.1 and 102 shall survive any termination of this Agreement or the dismantlement, removal,
abandonment of, or discontinuance of service of the Systems. 
 11. TAXES

shall be responsible to pay for its own account. Operator will prepare and file MPC’s income tax returns, including all federal, state and local income tax returns. 
 12. LAW GOVERNING 
 THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF OHIO, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW THEREOF. ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM OR PROCEEDING RELATED TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY TRANSACTION OR
CONDUCT IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, IS WAIVED. 
 13. FORCE MAJEURE 

13.1 Effect of Force Majeure. (a) In the event that either MPC or Operator is rendered unable, by reason of an event of Force
Majeure, to perform, wholly or in part, any obligation under this Agreement, then upon such Party’s giving notice and full particulars of such event as soon as practicable after the occurrence thereof, the obligations of both Parties, to the
extent they are affected by such event of Force Majeure, except for unpaid financial obligations arising prior to such event of Force Majeure and except for Operator’s obligation to take steps to deal with any emergency in the Systems, shall be
suspended to the extent and for the period of such Force Majeure condition. 

  
 12 

 (b) Non-Force Majeure Situations. Neither MPC nor Operator shall be entitled to the
benefit of the provisions of Section 13.1(a) of this Agreement under the following circumstances: 
 (i) to
the extent that the failure was caused by the Party claiming suspension having failed to remedy the condition by taking all reasonable acts, short of litigation, if such remedy requires litigation, and having failed to resume performance of such
commitments or obligations with reasonable dispatch, provided, however, that neither Party shall be required to settle a labor dispute against its own better judgment; 

(ii) if the failure was caused by failure of the Party claiming suspension to request or pay necessary funds in a timely
manner, or with respect to the payment of any amounts then due hereunder; or 
 (iii) to the extent that the
failure was caused or contributed to by gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Party claiming suspension. 
 (c)
Resumption of Normal Performance. Should there be an event of Force Majeure affecting performance hereunder, the Parties shall cooperate, other than financially, to take all reasonable steps to remedy such event with all reasonable dispatch
to insure resumption of normal performance. 
 (d) Suspension. In the event that, by reason of Force Majeure, the
Systems, or any individual pipeline, are shut down or unable to operate for any continuous period of sixty (60) days, or (ii) Operator is unable to resume its obligations described in this Agreement for any continuous period of thirty
(30) days such that it materially affects the ongoing economic operation of the Systems or this Agreement, then MPC, on thirty (30) days written notice to the Operator may elect to suspend this Agreement, unless within such thirty
(30) day notice period such event of Force Majeure is relieved and all operations which had been shut down by such Force Majeure shall have been recommenced. If this Agreement is suspended, all fees and charges will be reduced by an amount that
is appropriate under the facts and circumstances of the nature and duration of the period of such suspension. Operator will be entitled to reimbursement for severance costs of direct charge position employees terminated as a result of the suspension
of Operator’s operations to the extent Force Majeure is claimed by MPC. 
 13.2 Term. Nothing in Section 13.1
shall have the effect of extending any Term of this Agreement. 
 14. EXAMINATION OF RECORDS 

MPC may, at all reasonable times, examine the books, accounts and records of MPC in the possession or control of Operator, in accordance

to its Reimbursable Charges due or incurred to the date of termination. 
  

	15.3	Resignation by Operator. Operator may resign as Operator and this Agreement shall be terminated if: 

(a) MPC shall neglect or fail to perform any or all of its material obligations under this Agreement and after thirty (30) days
written notice of such default fails to rectify the same; or 
 (b) MPC becomes bankrupt or insolvent, commits or suffers any
act of bankruptcy or insolvency, is placed in receivership, seeks debt or relief protection under any applicable legislation and such is not rectified within thirty (30) days from such event; or 

(c) If MPC decides to terminate the operation of the Systems. 
 If Operator resigns under Section 15.3, then Operator shall be entitled to receive Reimbursable Charges due or incurred to the date of termination, and reimbursement of all costs and expenses
incurred by Operator, including severance costs of direct charge position employees terminated as a result of the resignation, not otherwise reimbursed under Section 8 of this Agreement. 

15.4 Nonapplicability. For greater certainty, it is understood and agreed that Sections 15.1 to 15.3 do not apply where this
Agreement is terminated and Operator ceases to be Operator as a result of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.2; in which case Operator shall be paid the Reimbursable Charges only up to the date of termination of this
Agreement.

after the Effective Date. 
 16.2 Captions or Headings. The headings appearing at the beginning of each section and at
the beginning of various subsections are all inserted and included solely for convenience and shall never be considered or given any effect in construing this Agreement or any provisions hereof or liabilities of the respective Parties or in
ascertaining intent, if any question of intent should arise. 
 16.3 Assignability. The rights, duties and privileges
under this Agreement shall not be assigned by either Party without the prior written consent of the other Party, provided, however, Operator may, without obtaining MPC’s consent (a) engage contract personnel and personnel employed
by its Affiliates to perform the Services contemplated under this Agreement, or (b) assign this Agreement to one of its Affiliates. 
 16.4 Notices. All notices, claims, certificates, requests, demands and other communications hereunder must be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given if delivered by hand, telex,

 16.5 Confidentiality. Each Party acknowledges that it may receive information from or regarding the other Party in the nature of trade secrets or that otherwise is confidential. Except as permitted
herein, each Party agrees not to disclose to any third party (including any 

  
 15 

 
Affiliates of such Party other than those Affiliates required by a Party to carry out such Party’s obligations hereunder and then only to the extent necessary) or to use except in
furtherance of the purposes and objectives of this Agreement, any information it receives from or about the other Party that, if such information is in written form and is clearly designated as being confidential at the time of receipt, or, if such
information is not in written form, is specifically designated as being confidential in a written notice received within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, “confidential information”
shall include customer-specific prices, cost or pricing formulas, descriptions of customer negotiations, or marketing and strategic plans of any other Party, other cost information, shipper information (including volumes and grade), contract terms
(including the terms and provisions and existence of this Agreement), price information, and strategic or marketing methods or plans. All information not so designated or classified or not of the type described in the immediately preceding sentence,
shall be deemed not to be confidential. Without the consent of the other Party, each Party agrees not to disclose to any third party (including such Party’s Affiliates other than those Affiliates required by a Party to carry out such
Party’s obligations hereunder and then only to the extent necessary), other than in furtherance of the purposes and objectives of this Agreement, any such confidential information, except for disclosure (a) compelled by law (but the
disclosing Party must notify the other Party promptly of any request for such information before disclosing it, if practicable), (b) to advisors, consultants or representatives of the applicable Party (provided that such persons agree in
writing to maintain the confidentiality of such information), (c) of information that is or becomes available to the publicly generally (except through the breach of the provisions of this Agreement), or (d) of information a Party has also
received from a source independent of the other Party and the receiving Party reasonably believes obtained that information without breach of any obligation of confidentiality. With respect to other information that is not specifically designated as
being confidential or which otherwise pursuant to the terms hereof is confidential, it is the intent of the Parties that each Party should treat all such information regarding the other Party according to the same standard applied by such Party to
similar information pertaining to its own business. 
 16.6 Waiver. No waiver by any Party of any default by any other
Party in the performance of any provision, condition or requirement herein shall be deemed to be a waiver of, or in any manner release the other Party from, performance of any other provision, condition or requirement herein, nor shall such waiver
be deemed to be a waiver of, o: in any manner a release of, the other Party from future performance of the same provision, condition or requirement. Any delay or omission of any Party to exercise any right hereunder shall not impair the exercise of
any such right, or any like right, accruing to it thereafter. No waiver of a right created by this Agreement by one Party shall constitute a waiver of such right by the other Party except as may otherwise be required by law with respect to persons
not Parties hereto. The failure of one Party to perform its obligations hereunder shall not release the other Party from the performance of such obligations. 
 16.7 Severability. Should any provision of this Agreement be deemed in contradiction with the laws of any jurisdiction in which it is to be performed or unenforceable for any reason, such provision
shall be deemed null and void, but this Agreement shall remain in force in all other respects. Should any provision of this Agreement be or become ineffective 

  
 16 

 
because of changes in applicable laws or interpretations thereof or should this Agreement fail to include a provision that is required as a matter of law, the validity of the other provisions of
this Agreement shall not be affected thereby. If such circumstances arise, the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith appropriate modifications to this Agreement to reflect those changes that are required by law. 

16.8 Conflicts. In the event there is any conflict between this Agreement and any schedule or subsequent agreement referred to
herein, the provisions hereof shall be deemed controlling unless expressly provided to the contrary in the schedule or subsequent agreement. 
 IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, this Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original and effective as of the date first above written.
