thereof) are Members of the Company and both (including any of their
Affiliates) have a Percentage Interest (as defined in the JV Agreement) in the
Company of more than 20% (the “Term”), or such shorter or longer period
as may be provided in Schedules I and II attached hereto (as such
schedules may be modified from time to time in accordance herewith) with
respect to particular Services described therein.  For purposes of clarification, this Agreement
terminates if either Lone Star or Welspun (including, in

 5
 

 

each case, their Affiliates) have a
Percentage Interest (as defined in the JV Agreement) in the Company of 20% or
less.

Section 5.2             Termination.  Notwithstanding the Term of this Agreement:

(a)           except where indicated to the contrary in Schedule I
or II, the Company may at any time terminate one or more of the Services,
in whole or in part, upon giving at least 30 days prior written notice to
Provider; and

(b)           Provider may terminate this Agreement with respect to any
one or more of the Services (x) by written notice to the Company in the event
that (i) the Company shall have failed to perform, in all material respects,
any of its material obligations under this Agreement relating to such Service,
(ii) Provider has notified the Company in writing of such failure and (iii)
such failure shall have continued for a period of thirty (30) days after
receipt by the Company of notice of such failure or (y) in accordance with Section
6.2.

Section 5.3             Effect of Termination.  Other than as required by law, upon
termination of any Service pursuant to Section 5.2, Provider will have no
further obligation to provide the terminated Service (or any Service, in the
case of termination of this Agreement); provided that notwithstanding
such termination, the provisions of Articles IV, V and VI
shall survive any such termination. 
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the termination of this
Agreement by the Provider or the Company with respect to one or more Services
shall not affect the right or obligation of such Provider or Company to
continue to provide or receive other Services as a Provider or Company,
respectively, unless or until the earlier of (i) the termination of this
Agreement pursuant to Section 5.2 and (ii) the express termination of a Service
or Services.

ARTICLE VI.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 6.1             No Agency.  Nothing in this Agreement shall constitute or
be deemed to constitute a partnership or joint venture between the parties
hereto or constitute or be deemed to constitute any party the agent or employee
of the other party for any purpose whatsoever and neither party shall have
authority or power to bind the other or to contract in the name of, or create a
liability against, the other in any way or for any purpose, unless expressly
provided in a Schedule.

Section 6.2             Company as Sole Beneficiary.  The Services shall be provided only for the
benefit of the Company.  The Company
represents and agrees that the Company will use the Services only in accordance
with applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations.  Provider reserves the right to take all
actions, including termination of any particular Service, that Provider

and regulations.  Provider will notify
the Company of the reasons for any such termination of Services.

 6
 

 

Section 6.3             Confidentiality.

(a)           Nondisclosure.  Each of Lone Star and Welspun agrees that (i)
it will not, and will cause each of the Provider Entities, not to, disclose to
any third party or use any Confidential Information disclosed hereunder to such
Person, except as expressly permitted in this Agreement or in the exercise of
its rights hereunder, and (ii) it will take reasonable measures to maintain the
confidentiality of all Confidential Information of any other party in its or
the Provider Entities’ possession or control, which will in no event be less
than the measures it uses to maintain the confidentiality of its own
information of similar type and importance.

(b)           Permitted Disclosure.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of Lone
Star and Welspun may disclose Confidential Information of any other party (i)
to the extent required by a court of competent jurisdiction or other
Governmental Body or otherwise as required by law, provided that such party has
given such other party prior notice of such requirement when legally
permissible and to the extent reasonably possible to permit such other party to
take such legal action to prevent the disclosure as it deems reasonable,
appropriate or necessary or (ii) to its or any Provider Entity’s employees,
agents, representatives, legal counsel, auditors, accountants and advisors;
provided, however, that such persons shall be specifically informed of the
confidential character of such Confidential Information and that by receiving
such information they are agreeing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement
relating to the confidential treatment of such Confidential Information.

(c)           Ownership of Confidential
Information.  All Confidential
Information disclosed hereunder shall be and shall remain the sole and
exclusive property of the disclosing party.

Section 6.4             Entire Agreement; Conflicts.  This Agreement, together with all schedules
and exhibits hereto, the JV Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the
Confidentiality Agreement contain the entire agreement between the parties and
supersedes all prior writings or agreements with respect to the subject matter
hereof.  In the event any provision
contained in this Agreement conflicts with the provisions of the JV Agreement
or any other transaction document related thereto, the provisions of this
Agreement control.

Section 6.5             Information.  Subject to applicable law and privileges,
each party hereto covenants and agrees to provide the other party with all
information regarding itself and the transactions under this Agreement that the
other party reasonably believes is required to comply with all applicable
federal, state, county and local laws, ordinances, regulations and codes,
including securities laws and regulations.

Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given (i) when delivered
