                             DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

         THIS DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is dated ______ __,
2001, by and among KANEB SERVICES, INC., a Delaware corporation ("KSI"), KANEB
SERVICES LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("KSL"), and the Tax
Subsidiaries (as defined in Article 1) of KSL.

                                   WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, KFC is the sole organizational member of KSL;

         WHEREAS, KSI desires that all of the issued and outstanding shares of
capital stock of KPL be contributed to KSL in exchange for the Common Shares
Issuance; and

         WHEREAS, KSI desires to distribute to its stockholders all of the KSL
Common Shares that it receives in the Common Share Issuance;

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual terms,
covenants and conditions herein contained, and intending to be legally bound
hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

                                    ARTICLE 1

                               CERTAIN DEFINITIONS

         As used in this Agreement, the following terms have the following
respective meanings:

         1.1 "Adjustment" shall mean the alteration of any item of income, gain,
loss, deduction or credit of the Group or any one or more Tax Subsidiaries of
KSI occurring after the filing of any return for any tax year through 2001,
whether incident to the filing of an amended return or pursuant to an
examination by a tax authority. In the latter case, a proposed Adjustment shall
become an Adjustment for purposes hereof when it is agreed by KSI (or affected
members of the Group), or is unagreed initially but is finally resolved
adversely to the affected members of the Group pursuant to an administrative
proceeding, judicial action or settlement.

         1.2 "Administrative Services Agreement" shall mean the agreement to be
entered into by and between KSI and KSL, in substantially the form of Annex A
hereto.

         1.3 "Affected Layers" shall mean, with respect to any Liability Limit
Trigger, those layers of liability coverage under the applicable KSI Insurance
Policies that the reserve established impacts.

         1.4 "Affiliate" shall mean, with respect to KSI or KSL, any Person,
that directly or indirectly, is in control of, is controlled by, controls or is
under common control of KSI or KSL, as the case may be. For purposes of this
definition, control shall include the ownership of 50% or more of the legal or
beneficial interest in any Person or the power to direct or cause the direction
of the management and policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of
voting securities, by contract or otherwise. A Person who is an Affiliate shall
only be considered an Affiliate for so long as that Person meets the definition
of an Affiliate. An officer, director, general partner, managing member or
trustee of a Person or Affiliate of such Person shall not be considered to be an
Affiliate unless such Person is under the direct or indirect control or common
control of KSI or KSL, as the case may be. For purposes of clarity, KSI and KSL
shall not be considered to be an Affiliate of the other, nor shall any other
company in which a director or officer of KSI or KSL is also a director, officer
or stockholder be considered an Affiliate of KSI or KSL unless KSI or KSL, as
the case may be, itself controls such company.

                           (i) Federal - the amount by which (i) the Group's
liability for Income Tax reflected on its consolidated federal income tax return
as filed exceeds (ii) zero.

                           (ii) State - the amount by which (i) the Group's
liability for Income Tax reflected on combined, consolidated or unitary returns,
as filed, for (or that include) KSL and/or any Tax Subsidiary of KSL (or any
predecessor of KSL or any such Tax Subsidiary), insofar as such liability is
reasonably allocable to KSL or any such Tax Subsidiary as determined by KSI
exceeds (ii) $____________.

                  (c) All Tax Years (including 2000 and 2001):

                           (i) Federal - the amount by which the Group's
liability for Income Tax is increased above the amount shown on any consolidated
federal income tax return by one or more Adjustments that increase income or
decrease deductions or credits (on a cumulative basis, taking into account
carrybacks

                                       10
<PAGE>   15

and carryovers to tax years before and after any such Adjustment), which amount
shall be determined by calculating the Group's liability for Income Tax in the
applicable tax years with and without the Adjustment(s).

                           (ii) State - the amount by which the Group's
liability for Income Tax is increased by any Adjustment (on a cumulative basis,
taking into account carrybacks and carryovers to tax years before and after the
Adjustment) shown on any consolidated, combined or unitary return, as filed, for
(or that includes) KSL and/or any Tax Subsidiary of KSL (or any predecessor of
KSL or any such Tax Subsidiary), insofar as such increase is reasonably
allocable to KSL or any such Tax Subsidiary as determined by KSI. The foregoing
amount of increased Income Tax shall be determined by calculating the Group's
liability for tax in the applicable tax years with and without the Adjustment.

                  (d) Separate State Returns - State and local Income Tax
reflected on separate returns filed (or that were required to be filed) by or on
behalf of KSI, KSL or any Tax Subsidiary of either shall be the responsibility
of the entity whose operations are reflected on such return.

         5.3 Indemnity. In the event KSI or KSL is required to pay to the
Internal Revenue Service, or any state or local taxing authority, any Income Tax
that is the responsibility of the other, KSI or KSL, as the case may be, shall
be entitled to reimbursement from the other party in the amount of such Income
Tax. The procedural mechanics for the enforcement of this Section 5.3 shall be
in accordance with Article 6.

         5.4 Payment of Interest, Penalties and Expenses. Interest, penalties
and expenses incurred by KSI in connection with the amendment of its tax returns
or those of its Tax Subsidiaries, and/or the examination of any such return by
the Internal Revenue Service or any state or local taxing authority, or any
subsequent administrative or judicial proceedings, shall be borne equitably by
those parties whose liability for Income Tax may be affected by such amendment,
examination or subsequent proceedings. No interest shall be charged to KSI or
KSL in connection with any liability for Income Tax payable under this
Agreement, however, unless interest is payable to the Internal Revenue Service
or any state or local taxing authority or to another member of the Group as a
result of any allocation of Income Tax.

         5.5 KSI as Agent.

                  (a) KSL and its Tax Subsidiaries hereby appoint KSI as agent
and attorney-in-fact with full authority (i) to prepare and file any tax return
that reflects operations of KSL or any Tax Subsidiary, for all tax years ending
on or before December 31, 2001, (ii) to pay any liability for Income Tax shown
thereon, (iii) to represent KSL and its Tax Subsidiaries in connection with the
examination of any such return by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or
local taxing authority and (iv) to resolve disputes regarding liability for
Income Tax.

                  (b) KSL shall provide KSI with such data in its possession
that is necessary for the proper and timely filing of all federal, state and
local tax returns and forms. In the event KSL fails to provide such data in
proper form and within sufficient time to permit the timely filing of any such
tax return, any penalties or interest assessed by reason of a delay in filing
such tax return shall be payable by KSL. Any and all such data shall be
confidential and may be disclosed by KSI to third parties only to the extent
KSI, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, determines such
disclosure is necessary or appropriate to comply with its obligations under
applicable federal, state or local taxing provisions.

                  (c) The agency power of KSI, as described in this section,
shall extend to all periods during which KSL or any member of the KSL Group is a
member of the Group, and, after the Distribution Date, KSI shall retain the sole
power to make or change on behalf of KSL, or any Tax Subsidiary, any election or
other decision affecting Income Tax liabilities for such periods that KSL or
such Tax Subsidiary was a member of the Group.

                  (b) Absolute Indemnity. NONE OF THE KSL INDEMNIFIED PARTIES
         WILL BE OBLIGATED TO INSTITUTE ANY LEGAL PROCEEDINGS IN CONNECTION WITH
         THE COLLECTION OR PURSUIT OF ANY INSURANCE TO EXERCISE AN
         INDEMNIFICATION REMEDY UNDER THIS ARTICLE 6. UNLESS OTHERWISE
         SPECIFICALLY EXPRESSED, THIS INDEMNITY OBLIGATION SHALL APPLY WITHOUT
         REGARD TO WHETHER THE LIABILITY OR ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITY WAS CAUSED
         BY THE ORDINARY OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF ANY OF THE KSL INDEMNIFIED
         PARTIES (WHETHER SUCH NEGLIGENCE BE SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT OR ACTIVE
         OR PASSIVE), OR WHETHER THE LIABILITY OR ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITY IS
         BASED ON STRICT LIABILITY, ABSOLUTE LIABILITY OR ARISES AS AN
         OBLIGATION OF CONTRIBUTION OR INDEMNITY. KSL ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS
         AWARE OF VARIOUS THEORIES KNOWN AS THE "EXPRESS NEGLIGENCE" DOCTRINE
         AND OTHER SIMILAR DOCTRINES AND THEORIES THAT MAY LIMIT INDEMNIFICATION
         AND AGREES AND STIPULATES THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT REFLECT
         THE EXPRESS INTENT OF THE PARTIES THAT THE INDEMNIFICATION TO BE
         PROVIDED BY KSL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING THE FACT THAT THE LIABILITY OR
         ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITY (I) MAY NOT CURRENTLY BE KNOWN BY IT OR
         MANIFEST ITSELF IN ANY REGARD, (II) MAY ARISE UNDER A STATUTE OR THEORY
         THAT MAY NOT CURRENTLY EXIST OR BE KNOWN TO KSL, RESPECTIVELY, (III)
         MAY ARISE AS A RESULT OF ANY ACT OR OMISSION BY ANY OF THE KSL
         INDEMNIFIED PARTIES (WHETHER SUCH CONDUCT BE SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT
         OR ACTIVE OR PASSIVE) OR (IV) MAY CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF ANY
         APPLICABLE CIVIL OR CRIMINAL LAW OR REGULATION.

         6.2 Notice of KSL Circumstance. After receipt by KSI of notice, or
KSI's actual discovery, of any action, proceeding, claim, demand or potential
claim that could give rise to a right to indemnification from

                                       13
<PAGE>   18

KSL pursuant to any provision of this Agreement (any of which is individually
referred to as a "KSL Circumstance"), KSI shall give KSL written notice
describing the KSL Circumstance in reasonable detail; provided, however, that no
delay by KSI in notifying KSL shall relieve KSL from any Liability or
Environmental Liability hereunder. If KSL notifies KSI within 15 days after such
notice that KSL is assuming the defense thereof, except as otherwise provided in
Article 5 of this Agreement, (i) KSL will defend the KSL Indemnified Parties
against the KSL Circumstance with counsel of its choice, provided such counsel
is reasonably satisfactory to KSI, (ii) the KSL Indemnified Parties may retain
separate co-counsel at its or their sole cost and expense (except that KSL will
be responsible for the fees and expenses for the separate co-counsel to the
extent KSI concludes reasonably that the counsel KSL has selected has a conflict
of interest), (iii) the KSL Indemnified Parties will not consent to the entry of
any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the KSL Circumstance
without the written consent of KSL and (iv) KSL will not consent to the entry of
any judgment with respect to the KSL Circumstance, or enter into any settlement
that (x) requires any payments by or continuing obligations of an KSL
Indemnified Party, (y) requires a KSL Indemnified Party to admit any facts or
liability that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect a KSL
Indemnified Party in any other matter or (z) does not include a provision
whereby the plaintiff or claimant in the matter releases the KSL Indemnified
Parties from all Liability with respect thereto, without the written consent of
KSI. If KSL does not notify KSI, within 15 days after KSI has given notice of
the KSL Circumstance that KSL is assuming the defense thereof, then the KSL
Indemnified Parties may defend against, or enter into any settlement with
respect to, the KSL Circumstance in any manner the KSL Indemnified Parties
reasonably may deem appropriate, at KSL's sole cost.

         6.3 Payment. Payment of any amounts due pursuant to this Article 6
shall be made in United States dollars in immediately available funds, by wire
transfer to a bank account or accounts to be designated by KSL Indemnified Party
within ten Business Days after notice is sent by the KSL Indemnified Party. If
and to the extent the KSL Indemnified Party shall make written demand upon KSL
for indemnification pursuant to this Article 6 and KSL shall refuse or fail to
pay in full, within ten Business Days of such written demand, the amounts
demanded pursuant hereto and in accordance herewith, then the KSL Indemnified
Party may use any legal or equitable remedy to collect from KSL the amount
demanded.

         6.4 Insurance. KSL shall not be obligated to indemnify the KSL
Indemnified Parties for amounts that shall have been covered and paid by
insurance of the KSL Indemnified Party; provided, however, insurance shall not
include deductibles or self-insured retentions.

         6.5 Scope of Indemnification. INDEMNIFICATION UNDER THIS ARTICLE 6
SHALL BE IN ADDITION TO ANY REMEDIES KSI, KSL OR THE KSL INDEMNIFIED PARTY, AS
THE CASE MAY BE, MAY HAVE AT LAW OR EQUITY. THERE SHALL BE NO TIME LIMIT AS TO
KSL'S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER.

         6.6 Indemnity for Certain Environmental Liabilities. It is the
intention of the parties that the indemnity provided herein with respect to
Environmental Liabilities under CERCLA and corresponding provisions of state law
is an agreement expressly not barred by 42 U.S.C.ss.9607(e)(i) or corresponding
provisions of any state law.

                                    ARTICLE 7

                        CONDITIONS TO OBLIGATIONS OF KSI

sole discretion, to abandon, defer or modify the Distribution or the terms
thereof.

                        ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT

         This Administrative Services Agreement (this "Agreement") is entered
into as of _______, 2001, between Kaneb Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("KSI"), and Kaneb Services LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("KSL").

                              W I T N E S S E T H

         WHEREAS, KSI and KSL are parties to the Distribution Agreement and
other related agreements; and

         WHEREAS, KSI and KSL desire for KSI and its Affiliates to provide
certain services to KSL and its Affiliates;

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, KSI and KSL hereby covenant and agree as follows:

                                   ARTICLE 1

                                   DEFINITIONS

         All capitalized terms or other defined terms used but not defined in
this Agreement are used in this Agreement with the following meanings:

         "Affiliate" means, with respect to KSI or KSL, any Person, that
directly or indirectly, is in control of, is controlled by, controls or is under
common control of KSI or KSL, as the case may be. For purposes of this
definition, control shall include the ownership of 50% or more of the legal or
beneficial interest in any Person or the power to direct or cause the direction
of the management and policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of
voting securities, by contract or otherwise. A Person who is an Affiliate shall
only be considered an Affiliate for so long as that Person meets the definition
of an Affiliate. An officer, director, general partner, managing member or
trustee of a Person or Affiliate of such Person shall not be considered to be an
Affiliate unless such Person is under the direct or indirect control or common
control of KSI or KSL, as the case may be. For purposes of clarity, neither KSI
nor KSL shall be considered to be an Affiliate of the other, nor shall Kaneb
Pipe Line Partners, L.P. or its subsidiaries be considered an Affiliate of KSL
solely for the purposes of this Agreement.

         "Business Day" shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or
other day on which commercial banks in Dallas, Texas are authorized or required
to close.

         "Closing Date" shall mean ________ __, 2001.

         "Distribution Agreement" shall mean that certain Distribution Agreement
dated as of ______ ___, 2001, by and between KSI and KSL, as the same may be
amended and in force and effect from time to time.

         "Governmental Authority" shall mean any nation or government, any state
or other political subdivision thereof and any entity exercising executive,
legislative, judicial, regulatory or administrative functions of or pertaining
to government.

         "Person" shall mean an individual, partnership, corporation, business
trust, limited liability company, limited liability partnership, joint stock
company, trust, unincorporated association, joint venture, Governmental
Authority or other entity of whatever nature.

         "Services" shall mean, collectively, the Treasury Services, the
Insurance and Risk Management Services, the Legal Services, the Tax Services,
the MIS Services, the Investor Relations Services, the Facilities Services, the
Human Resources Services and the Accounting Services (each of which, as
hereinafter defined).

Risk Management Services"), the legal services set forth on Annex C ( the "Legal
Services"), the tax services set forth on Annex D (the "Tax Services"), the

         2.2 FEES; EXPENSES.

                  (a) For the provision of the Services, KSL hereby agrees to
pay to KSI $____ per month (the "Monthly Fee"). Annually, KSI will determine the
costs of the Services pursuant to this agreement and will reasonably adjust the
Monthly Fee accordingly. KSL hereby agrees to pay KSI the Monthly Fee on the
15th day of each month during the term of this Agreement.

                  (b) KSL and KSI hereby acknowledge and agree that the Monthly
Fee only reimburses KSI for costs expended in connection with general overhead
and other general business expenses and is not intended to reimburse KSI for
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by KSI solely for the benefit of KSL.
Accordingly, KSL hereby agrees to reimburse KSI any out-of-pocket expenses that
KSI incurs solely for the benefit of KSL, such payment to be made within 30
calendar days after receipt of written notice of KSI incurring such an expense.

                  (c) KSL agrees to pay to KSI all overhead and administrative
costs and expenses, except for the salaries and other compensation arrangements
(including amounts expended under benefit plans) of any executive officers of

other business services to the executive and administrative departments of KSL,
including, but not limited to, the salaries of support staff and

expenses incurred in connection with telephones, office supplies, office rent,
dues and subscriptions and computer networks and systems.

         2.3 TERM AND TERMINATION. The term of this Agreement shall commence on
the Closing Date and shall continue until, and terminate on, December 31, 2005,
provided, however, that, upon one hundred and twenty (120) days notice to the
other party, each party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement. The
termination of this Agreement shall not release (i) either party from its
liability to the other party under this Agreement arising from a breach of this
Agreement, (ii) either party from its rights and obligations under Article III
or (iii) KSL from its payment obligations under Section 2.2.

                                   ARTICLE 3

         3.3 EXPRESS NEGLIGENCE. THE INDEMNITIES SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE III
ARE INTENDED TO BE ENFORCEABLE AGAINST THE PARTIES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
EXPRESS TERMS AND SCOPE THEREOF NOTWITHSTANDING TEXAS' EXPRESS NEGLIGENCE RULE

performance of functions and may consult with agents, counsel (in-house or

purposes upon any notice, document, correspondence, request or directive
received by it from KSL or its Affiliates, or any officer or director of KSL or
its Affiliates, and shall not be obligated to inquire (a) as to the authority or
power of any person executing or presenting any such notice, document,
correspondence, request or directive, or (b) as to the truthfulness of any

All notices, demands and requests will be effective upon actual receipt or, in
the case of delivery by facsimile transmission, the completion of such
transmission during the normal business hours of the recipient. Rejection or
other refusal to accept or the inability to deliver because of changed address
of which no notice was given as provided herein will be deemed to be receipt of
the notice, demand or request sent. By giving to the other party at least 10
Business Days' written notice thereof, a party and its respective permitted
successors and permitted assigns will have the right from time to time and at
any time during the term of this Agreement to change their respective addresses
for notices and each will have the

<PAGE>   6

right to specify as its address for notices any other address within the United
States of America.

         4.3 SEVERABILITY. Any provision hereof that is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction will, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective
to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction will not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction.

         4.4 ASSIGNMENT; OTHER BENEFITS. This Agreement will be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their
respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither party to this Agreement may
assign its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the
other party; provided, however, KSI may assign any of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement to any Affiliate of KSI.

         4.5 GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement will be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Texas, without reference to
or the application of the rules of conflicts of laws set forth in such laws.

         4.6 WAIVER. No consent or waiver, express or implied, by a party hereto
to or of any breach or default by the other party hereto in the performance by
such other party of its obligations hereunder will be deemed or construed to be
a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by
such other party of the same or any other obligations of such other party
hereunder. Failure on the part of a party to complain of any act or failure to
act of the other party or to declare the other party in default, irrespective of
how long such failure continues, will not constitute a waiver by such party of
its rights hereunder. The giving of consent by a party in any one instance will
not limit or waive the necessity to obtain such party's consent in any future
instance.

         4.7 TERMINOLOGY. All personal pronouns used in this Agreement, whether
used in the masculine, feminine or neuter gender, will include all other
genders; and the singular will include the plural and vice versa. The headings
of the Articles and Sections of this Agreement are included for convenience only
and will not be deemed to constitute part of this Agreement or to affect the
construction hereof or thereof.

         4.8 FORCE MAJEURE. Except for the obligation of KSL to make payments
hereunder when due and the indemnification obligations arising hereunder,
neither party shall be liable for delays in performance or for non-performance,
directly occasioned or caused by Force Majeure. As used in this Agreement, the
term "Force Majeure" means any event beyond the reasonable control of the party
claiming to be affected thereby, including, without limitation, acts of God,
storms, floods, war, fire, strikes, lockouts or differences with workers, acts
of the public enemy, insurrections, riots or rules or regulations of any
Governmental Authority asserting jurisdiction or control, compliance with which
makes continuance of operations impossible. Inability of either party to secure
funds shall not be regarded as Force Majeure. Upon the occurrence of Force
Majeure, the party affected shall give prompt notice thereof to the other party
and shall, at its cost and expense, do all things commercially reasonable to
remove or mitigate its effect.

         4.9 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which will for all purposes be deemed an original, but all
of which together will constitute one and the same agreement.

         4.10 FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each party hereto agrees to do all acts and
things and to make, execute and deliver such written instruments, as will from
time to time be reasonably required to carry out the terms and provisions of
this Agreement.
