TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT
This TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), is made and entered into as of the 17th day of April, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), by and among PBF Holding Company LLC, a limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of Delaware (“PBF”), and Torrance Refining Company LLC, Martinez Refining Company LLC, and Delaware City Refining Company LLC, each a limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of Delaware (collectively with PBF, the “Providers” and each individually a “Provider”) and Air Products and Chemicals, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Delaware and Air Products West Coast Hydrogen LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (each a “Recipient” and collectively, “AP”). Each of PBF and AP is referred to herein as a “Party,” and together as the “Parties.” 
WHEREAS, the Parties have entered into that certain Asset and Purchase Agreement (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time in accordance with its terms) (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated as of the 17th day of April, 2020, pursuant to which AP has acquired the Transferred Assets, including five (5) steam methane reformers (including the facilities and appurtenances solely related thereto, collectively, the “SMR Facilities”) located on the Easement Areas;
WHEREAS, the Purchase Agreement contemplates that the Parties or their Affiliates will enter into certain Supply Agreements pursuant to which AP will supply hydrogen, steam and carbon dioxide (collectively, the “Products”) produced by the SMR Facilities to the Providers after the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement;
WHEREAS, the Purchase Agreement contemplates that PBF shall receive, pursuant to this Agreement and the Supply Agreements, the environmental credits or benefits generated or derived from the operations of the SMR Facilities inclusive of the Stipulated Projects (as hereinafter defined) (the “Environmental Credits”); and
WHEREAS, the Purchase Agreement further contemplates that Providers and Recipients will enter into this Agreement to facilitate the supply of the Products and the operation and maintenance of the SMR Facilities on a transitional basis, pending the completion of due diligence and testing on the SMR Facilities (including with respect to the expenditures needed for the SMR Facilities to operate reliability over the supply period) and commencement of service under the Supply Agreements, in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:
		
	1.
	INTERIM SUPPLY AND TRANSITION SERVICES AND FEES

		
	1.1
	SUPPLY OBLIGATIONS AND TRANSITION SERVICES.

		
	1.1.1
	Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, (i) Providers shall provide, or cause to be provided, to Recipient (x) all services necessary in order for the SMR Facilities to be operated and maintained in substantially the same manner in which the SMR Facilities were operated and maintained during the twelve (12) month period prior to the Effective Date (“Provider Past Practices”), inclusive of any maintenance activities that were planned by Providers (including turnarounds, overhauls, mechanical integrity inspections, and any other necessary planned activities required for the long-term operability and maintainability of the SMR Facilities) (y) unplanned maintenance activities and (z) reasonable assistance with respect to its due diligence and performance 

3

testing of the SMR Facilities (collectively, “Transition Services”); (ii) Providers shall provide at their sole cost and expense (x) all utilities and feed stocks required for the operation of the SMR Facilities (“Utilities”), including each of the Utilities specified on Schedule 1.1.1 and (y) use of any Excluded Assets that are related to or required for the operation and maintenance of the Transferred Assets, including equipment, pipes, structures and other facilities (“Shared Assets”), in each case, as necessary to operate and maintain the SMR Facilities, and AP shall have no obligation to pay for, or to reimburse Providers or any of their Affiliates for, such Utilities or Shared Assets; (iii) AP shall sell to the applicable Provider identified on Exhibit A all Products produced by the applicable SMR Facilities and provide the Environmental Credits (the “Supply Obligations”) and (iv) the applicable Provider shall purchase and take delivery of the applicable Products.
		
	1.1.2
	The Transition Services shall be performed: (i) in accordance with applicable Law; (ii) in accordance with Provider Past Practices as long as they were consistent with Prudent Industry Practice; and (iii) in all cases (except for Force Majeure), sufficient to meet AP’s Supply Obligations.

		
	1.1.3
	In no event shall Recipient be entitled to any increase in the level of service from Provider Past Practice, volume or scope of its use of any of the Transition Services, or any change in, or addition to, the location(s) where such Transition Services are provided or any other modification of the Transitions Services in order to meet AP’s Supply Obligations or Recipient’s obligations under the Supply Agreements (collectively, an “Additional Service Request”), without the prior written consent of PBF, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld. Any Additional Service Request shall be in writing, providing at least ninety (90) days’ advance notice and shall include reasonable details of the services affected or requested.  To the extent that PBF agrees in writing to any Additional Service Request (including with respect to the estimated costs of accommodating such Additional Service Request to be determined upon the mutual agreement of the Parties), Recipient shall be responsible for any and all costs reasonably incurred by Providers as a result of Providers’ accommodating any Additional Service Request; provided, however, that Recipient shall not be responsible for any such costs in excess of the agreed estimated amounts unless otherwise agreed in writing.  Requests for consent for any Additional Service Request shall be made in each instance to Providers’ TSA Managers (as defined below), and in such instances the formalities of notice specified in Section 8.1 shall be deemed waived with respect to each such request if Providers’ TSA Managers acknowledge in writing receipt of any such request.

		
	1.1.4
	On or prior to the last day of the Term, any Service Term Extension or such earlier date on which any Transition Services have been terminated, PBF will, as part of the Transition Services, and will cause the Providers to, transfer to Recipient all data generated through performance of the applicable Transition Services, including all records, data, files and other information received or computed in performance of the Transition Services during the Term or any Service Term Extension, as applicable, in electronic and/or hard copy form; provided, however, that PBF and the Providers shall not have any obligation to provide or cause to provide data in any format other than the format in which such data was originally generated. AP shall not be responsible for any third-party or other out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by PBF and the Providers in providing the records, data, files and other information contemplated by this Section 1.1.4.

		
	1.1.5
	Subject to Section 1.1.2, each Provider, in providing the Transition Services may, as it deems necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion (a) use the personnel of such Provider (it being understood that such personnel can perform the Transition Services on behalf of such Provider on a full- or part-time basis, as determined by such Provider) and (b) employ the services of third parties to the extent such third-party services are routinely utilized to provide similar services to other businesses of such Provider or are reasonably necessary for the efficient performance of any such 

4

Transition Services. In performing the Transition Services, employees and representatives of a Provider shall be under the direction, control and supervision of such Provider (and not Recipient) and such Provider shall have the sole right to exercise all authority with respect to the employment (including termination of employment), assignment and compensation of such employees and representatives (it being understood Recipient does not have any right hereunder to require that any Provider perform the Transition Services with specifically identified employees and that the assignment of employees to provide such Transition Services shall be determined in the sole discretion of the applicable Provider).
		
	1.1.6
	In performing the Transition Services, Providers shall at all times maintain the SMR Facilities in substantially the same condition as on the date hereof provided that it is agreed by Recipient that Provider shall execute the projects set forth on Schedule 1.1.6 (the “Stipulated Projects”) or, if this Agreement is no longer in effect, Recipient shall effect the Stipulated Projects pursuant to the terms of the applicable Supply Agreements subject to Recipient being compensated pursuant to the terms of the Supply Agreements for effecting such Stipulated Projects. Except for the Stipulated Projects or in connection with any emergency services, or any written agreement of the Parties providing otherwise, Providers shall not remove, replace or modify the SMR Facilities (or any portion thereof), or alter the present design, layout, equipment, or operations of the SMR Facilities without AP’s prior written consent, which may be withheld or granted in AP’s sole discretion.  Upon the expiration of the Term or the earlier termination of this Agreement or the Transition Services with respect to any SMR Facility, Provider shall deliver over to AP each applicable SMR Facility in substantially the same condition as on the date hereof (but not including with respect to the Stipulated Projects (whether complete or in process) or any other modifications permitted under this Agreement either with or without AP’s consent), subject to normal wear and tear incurred in the ordinary course of business), including with respect to inventory and spare parts.  

		
	1.1.7
	As part of the Transition Services, Providers will provide emergency response assistance in the event of an emergency on the Easements or SMR Facilities (“Emergency Response Services”).  In responding to an emergency on the Easements or SMR Facilities, Providers will provide the appropriate equipment and personnel to be exclusively manned and operated by Providers’ personnel.   Upon mutual agreement between Recipient and Providers, Recipient’s SMR Facilities will be incorporated into Providers’ existing emergency notification systems.  Provider shall immediately notify the Recipient TSA Manager of any incidents that require Emergency Response Services. In the event the Recipient TSA Manager cannot be reached Provider shall contact the Air Products Security Operations Center at 610 -481-7711.  Provider shall report all environmental incidents affecting the Transferred Assets, OSHA recordable injuries and lost-time-injures to the Recipient TSA Manager within 24 hours of determination that an incident is reportable and Provider shall provide Recipient with the related incident investigation reports if investigations and reports are required according to Providers standards and procedures within 30 days of completion of the investigation. 

		
	1.1.8
	In performing the Transition Services, Providers shall keep the SMR Facilities free and clear of any and all Liens (other than Permitted Liens) and shall not operate, maintain or otherwise use the SMR Facilities for any purpose other than the production of Products.  

		
	1.1.9
	Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement, the Supply Agreements or the Easement Agreements, Recipient shall have the exclusive right, power and authority to make all decisions in respect of any proposed investment in or disposition of the SMR Facilities.

5

		
	1.2
	FEES.

		
	1.2.1
	In consideration for Transition Services, Recipient shall pay to the applicable Provider the monthly fees set forth on Exhibit A (as adjusted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the “Transition Services Fees”). Except as set forth in Section 1.2.2, the amount of the Transition Service Fee is not subject to increase or adjustment for any reason.  Recipient shall pay a pro rata share of the Transition Service Fee for any partial month during the Term.

		
	1.2.2
	One-Hundred Percent (100%) of the Transition Service Fee shall be adjusted quarterly following the Effective Date in direct proportion to positive changes in the Employment Cost Index for Total Compensation, Private Industry Workers, Manufacturing, Not Seasonally Adjusted, released quarterly by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (the “Index”), utilizing a base Index number for the most recent quarterly period available at the Effective Date, and the Index number for the most recent quarterly period available at the time of adjustment.  If the Index ceases to be available as presently constituted, the Parties shall substitute a suitable and reasonably comparable index.

		
	1.2.3
	In consideration for providing Products in connection with its Supply Obligation, each Provider shall pay to Recipient the monthly amount set forth on Exhibit A (as adjusted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the “Base Facility Charge”), which shall be due and payable irrespective of the quantity of Products actually supplied to or taken by any Provider during any particular month to which such charge relates. Each Provider shall pay a pro rata share of the Base Facility Charge for any partial month during the Term.

		
	1.2.4
	Thirty-three percent (33%) of the Base Facility Charge shall be adjusted quarterly following the Effective Date in direct proportion to positive changes in the Index, utilizing a base Index number for the Effective Date, utilizing a base Index number for the most recent quarterly period available at the Effective Date, and the Index number for the most recent quarterly period available at the time of adjustment.  If the Index ceases to be available as presently constituted, the Parties shall substitute a suitable and reasonably comparable index. 

		
	1.2.5
	On the first day of each calendar month, each Provider shall separately send the applicable Recipient an invoice for the Transition Services Fees payable for such month with respect to the applicable SMR Facilities specified on Exhibit A. Any invoice not paid within fifteen (15) days will accrue interest beginning on the day thereafter, and such interest will accrue until the date of payment at a rate that is equal to the lesser of the maximum rate allowable by applicable law and one percent (1%) over the published U.S. prime lending rate available on Bloomberg U.S. Price Rate Index. Any failure by PBF to issue an invoice by the first day of any month shall not constitute a waiver of PBF’s right to subsequently invoice and collect such amounts. The first invoices issued pursuant to this Section 1.2.5 shall include the prorated amounts for the first month of the Term.  

		
	1.2.6
	On the first day of each calendar month, each Recipient shall separately send the applicable Provider an invoice for the Base Facility Charge payable for such month with respect to the applicable SMR Facilities specified on Exhibit A, and all other amounts payable by such Providers to AP for the immediately preceding month. Any invoice not paid within fifteen (15) days will accrue interest beginning on the day thereafter, and such interest will accrue until the date of payment at a rate that is equal to the lesser of the maximum rate allowable by applicable law and one percent (1%) over the published U.S. prime lending rate available on Bloomberg U.S. Price Rate Index. Any failure by AP to issue an invoice by the first day of any month shall not constitute a waiver of AP’s right to subsequently invoice and collect such amounts. PBF shall be jointly and severally liable with the 

6

applicable Provider for all obligations of such Provider hereunder, including payment of the Base Facility Charge. The first invoices issued pursuant to this Section 1.2.6 shall include the prorated amounts for the first month of the Term.   
		
	1.2.7
	The Transition Service Fees set forth under Section 1.2.1 above are inclusive of all costs, and Recipient shall have no obligation to pay any other amounts to Providers under this Agreement in connection with the performance of the Transition Services.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Recipient shall have no obligation to reimburse any Provider for (i) any additional third-party or other out-of-pocket additional or increased costs and expenses incurred by any Provider in connection with providing the Transition Services (including any travel-related expenses), (ii) any hiring and retention costs whether or not in the ordinary course incurred by any Provider to hire and retain necessary employees to provide Transition Services, or (iii) any third party or out of pocket costs, fees or other expenses, any time charges billed by any Provider’s operations, engineering and IT functions, or any other costs, fees or expenses incurred by any Provider consistent with Provider Past Practice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if a Transition Service is being provided by a Provider to Recipient hereunder through a third party as contemplated by Section 1.1.5 and such third party increases the costs of such service, then such increased costs (and any corresponding adjustments to taxes payable or to be withheld in connection with such Transition Service) shall be solely for the account of Providers and shall not be passed along to Recipient.

		
	1.2.8
	The Parties shall meet to review and confer with respect to the costs of each Provider providing Transition Services hereunder as of the date that is two months from the date hereof (and thereafter upon the written request of a Provider (which may not be given more than once in any 30-day period)).  Recipient agrees to cooperate in good faith with the applicable Provider in order to assist such Provider in managing costs in connection with the transition of the Transition Services to Recipient.  The Transition Service Fees shall not be subject to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.2.8 unless mutually agreed by the applicable Provider and Recipient.

		
	1.2.9
	It is agreed that the timely payment by PBF of all amounts due and owing to AP hereunder is an express condition to the continued performance by AP of its obligations hereunder.  

		
	1.2.10
	The fees and payment obligations as stated herein do not include any Taxes, charges, or fees other than as stated in Section 1.2.1 or Section 1.2.3. If any Taxes, charges, or fees (including energy, excise, transportation, pollution or environmental, service, sales and use, property, ad valorem, business or gross receipts Taxes, or any new Tax with respect to carbon dioxide emissions in connection with the production, transportation or handling of Products delivered pursuant to this Agreement) are imposed on any SMR Facility, or imposed on or otherwise payable by AP or its Affiliates (x) with respect to the ownership, operation or maintenance of any SMR Facility (other than Income Taxes) or the use or consumption of Utilities (including electricity, natural gas and the other Utilities required to be provided by Providers or their Affiliates) or(y) that are measured by the production, manufacture, storage, sale, transportation, delivery, use, or consumption of Products sold pursuant to this Agreement, such Taxes, charges or fees shall be paid directly by PBF. If AP is required by applicable Law to directly pay such Taxes, charges or fees, AP shall provide an invoice to PBF setting forth each such Tax, charge or fee as a separate item, and PBF shall pay to AP the aggregate amount of any such Taxes, charges or fees shown thereon within five (5) Business Days following the receipt thereof.

		
	1.2.11
	AP agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with PBF for the purpose of minimizing all Taxes, charges or fees which, pursuant to Section 1.2.10, are to be paid directly or indirectly by PBF.

7

		
	1.2.12
	PBF shall pay and be responsible for any and all Change in Law Costs pertaining to the Transition Services.

		
	1.2.13
	Each Party acknowledges and agrees that it shall have no right under this Agreement to offset any amounts owed (or to become due and owing) to the other Party, whether under this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or otherwise, against any other amount owed (or to become due and owing) to it by the other Party.

		
	2.
	TERM AND TERMINATION

		
	2.1
	TERM.

Unless terminated earlier in accordance with Section 2.3 below, or extended in accordance with Section 2.2 below, the term (the “Term”) of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date   and shall continue until the earlier of (i) eighteen (18) months or (ii) with respect to the Transition Services for an SMR Facility or Recipient’s Supply Obligations for such SMR Facility, the date on which services under the applicable Supply Agreement have commenced. The date on which the Transition Services or Recipient’s Supply Obligations with respect to an SMR Facility are terminated hereunder shall be a “Termination Date”.
		
	2.2
	EXTENSION.

At any time from and after the date that is ninety (90) days after the Effective Date, AP may request that PBF consent to an extension of the Term for a particular Transition Service on terms substantially the same as pursuant to this Agreement (a “Service Term Extension”) by giving PBF written notice.  PBF will respond to any such request for a Service Term Extension within fifteen (15) Business Days of receipt; provided, however, that PBF may not unreasonably withhold its consent to any such request for a Service Term Extension.  In no event shall the Service Term Extension extend beyond the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Effective Date (the “Long-Stop Date”).   Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Long-Stop Date occurs for an SMR Facility and Recipient has used its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the applicable Permits but for reasons unrelated to its efforts to obtain such Permits, has not obtained the Permits required for Recipients to take over operations of such SMR Facility, the Parties agree to extend the Long-Stop Date until the earlier of (x) twelve months from the Long-Stop Date or (y) until such time as such Permits have been received.   
		
	2.3
	TERMINATION.

		
	2.3.1
	This Agreement may be terminated as follows:

		
	(i)
	at any time, in whole or in part, by the mutual written consent of PBF and AP;

		
	(ii)
	automatically, with respect to the applicable SMR Facility, upon any Termination Date;

		
	(iii)
	by AP, with the approval of PBF, which approval may not be unreasonably withheld by PBF, with respect to any particular Transition Service, upon at least sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to PBF with respect to an IT Transition Service and at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice for all other Transition Services, identifying the particular Transition Service to be terminated and the effective date of termination, which termination date must fall upon a month end unless PBF otherwise agrees. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Transition Service may be terminated by AP pursuant to this Section 2.3.1 to the extent it would materially impact the ability of Recipient to fulfill its Supply Obligations; and

8

		
	(iv)
	by either Party, with respect to any SMR Facility, immediately upon notice to other Party in the event of a termination of the applicable Easement Agreement in accordance with its terms by such Party.

		
	2.3.1.2
	The termination of any particular Transition Service pursuant to Section 2.3.1 above shall not affect this Agreement with respect to the Transition Services not terminated pursuant to such clause and the Transition Services Fee shall be subject to a downward adjustment to be mutually agreed by the Parties acting reasonably. 

		
	2.3.2
	Each Party acknowledges that the purpose of this Agreement is to provide the Transition Services on a transitional basis, so that Recipient can fulfill AP’s Supply Obligations until Recipient can perform the applicable Transition Services for itself through its own personnel. Accordingly, at all times from and after the Effective Date, Providers and Recipient shall use commercially reasonable efforts to render receipt of the Transition Services from Provider no longer necessary. Upon the completion of its testing and due diligence of each of the SMR Facilities as determined by AP in its sole reasonable discretion, Recipient agrees to provide to Providers a written exit plan with respect to the Transition Services (each, a “TSA Exit Plan”). Each TSA Exit Plan shall include, among other things, the following with respect to the Transition Services: (1) phases of implementation, (2) milestones, (3) desired Provider involvement, (4) Transition Service interdependency issues, (5) requested formats for Recipient’s current transactional data to be transferred by Provider, and (6) contingencies. The costs, fees and expenses of Providers to facilitate Recipient’s exit are included in the Transition Services Fees, and Recipient shall not be responsible for any additional costs, fees and expenses of Providers associated with the TSA Exit Plans except that AP shall be responsible for segregation costs regarding instrumentation and pay meters.  Providers shall not be obligated to provide any services in connection with the TSA Exit Plans that (a) inconsistent with Provider Past Practices or (b) Providers cannot provide using their then-current ordinary course resources and capabilities, giving due consideration to other obligations.  

		
	3.
	LIMITATION ON LIABILITY; INDEMNIFICATION

		
	3.1
	DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO TRANSITION SERVICES; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

		
	3.1.1
	WITHOUT LIMITING PROVIDER’S OBLIGATION TO PROVIDE TRANSITION SERVICES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE STANDARDS OF PERFORMANCE SET FORTH HEREIN, THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT EACH PROVIDER MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES (INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE) OR GUARANTEES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO ANY TRANSITION SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER AND THAT THE TRANSITION SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED HEREUNDER ARE FURNISHED “AS-IS,” “WHERE-IS,” AND WITH ALL FAULTS.

		
	3.1.2
	NOTWITHSTANDING SECTION 1.1.9, RECIPIENT SHALL NOT MAKE ANY CHANGE IN THE OPERATING PARAMETERS AND SYSTEMS OF THE SOFTWARE, HARDWARE, INFORMATION OR APPLICATIONS USED TO OPERATE THE SMR FACILITIES AS PART OF PROVIDER PAST PRACTICES (“APPLICATION FOOTPRINT”) OF ANY SMR FACILITY UNTIL AFTER THE APPLICABLE TERMINATION DATE UNLESS THE APPLICABLE PROVIDER AGREES IN WRITING THAT SUCH CHANGE SHALL NOT RESULT IN A DELAY OF THE COMPLETION OF THE TRANSITION.

9

		
	3.1.3
	THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT OR AS SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED IN THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT, IN THE EVENT THAT ANY APPLICATION FOOTPRINT IS TRANSFERRED TO RECIPIENT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT, SUCH SOFTWARE, HARDWARE, INFORMATION OR APPLICATIONS WILL BE TRANSFERRED “AS-IS, WHERE-IS” AND PROVIDERS MAKE NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY AS TO THE CONDITION OF SUCH SOFTWARE, HARDWARE, INFORMATION OR APPLICATION EXCEPT AS AND TO THE EXTENT SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT, NOR SHALL PROVIDERS HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO MAINTAIN SUCH APPLICATION FOOTPRINT FOLLOWING THE CLOSING EXCEPT AND TO THE EXTENT AS REQUIRED BY THIS AGREEMENT. FURTHERMORE, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, PROVIDERS MAKE NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF TITLE OR OF ANY RIGHT TO USE ANY SUCH SOFTWARE, HARDWARE OR APPLICATIONS, TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY OF THE FOREGOING CONTAIN THIRD PARTY OR OPEN SOURCE CODE.

		
	3.1.4
	Determination of the suitability of any Products furnished hereunder for the use contemplated by PBF is the sole responsibility of PBF, and AP will have no responsibility in connection therewith.  PBF acknowledges that there are hazards associated with the use of the Products, that it understands such hazards, and that it is the responsibility of PBF to warn and protect its employees and others exposed to such hazards through PBF’s use of the products.  PBF shall hold harmless, indemnify and defend AP and its Affiliates from and against any liability incurred by PBF or any of its Affiliates because such warnings were not made.  PBF assumes all risk and liability for loss, damage, or injury to persons or to property of PBF or others arising out of the presence or use of the Products or from the failure to make such warnings.

		
	3.1.5
	AP MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES (INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE) OR GUARANTEES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO ANY PRODUCTS PROVIDED HEREUNDER.

Each Provider shall and shall cause its Affiliates to, exercise 

13

or exploit their respective rights and options related to the Transferred Assets under any such Permit only as required by Law or reasonably directed by Recipient; provided, that, except with respect to Change in Permit Costs, Recipient shall be responsible for any Liability incurred by Provider pursuant to such direction.  All other Liabilities arising from the Permits during the Term shall be the responsibility of Provider.

	Provider and Recipient shall cooperate to identify which of the Permits shall be transferred to, or, if non-transferrable, issued to, Recipient prior to the applicable Termination Date (the “Recipient Permits”) and which should remain with Provider (the “Provider-Retained Permits”).  If Provider and Recipient cannot agree on which Permits shall be Recipient Permits and which shall be Provider-Retained Permits prior to the applicable Termination Date, then any such Permits shall be deemed Provider-Retained Permits unless and until the Parties agree in writing that they should be Recipient Permits.

	With respect to any Recipient Permits only, Provider and Recipient shall cooperate to obtain the consent, authorization, approval, waiver, release, substitution, or amendment (collectively, the “Permit Approval”) to such Permits to allow for the transfer to Recipient or, if any such Permit is not transferable, to have it re-issued in Recipient’s name.  Once such consent, authorization, approval, waiver, release, substitution or amendment is obtained, Provider shall assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Recipient the relevant Permit to which such consent, authorization, approval, waiver, release, substitution or amendment relates without the payment of further consideration and the obligations so assumed thereunder shall be deemed “Assumed Liabilities,” for purposes of the Purchase Agreement.  If any Permit Approval is not obtained or, with respect to non-transferable Permits, if the permit is not re-issued to Recipient, prior to the applicable Termination Date, then such Permit shall be a Provider-Retained Permit for purposes of this Section 5.4 until the Permit Approval is obtained or the Permit issued to Recipient.

All other Liabilities arising from the Permits during the Term of this agreement shall be the responsibility of Provider.  

		
	(ii)
	Provider shall take no action to amend, alter, modify or otherwise change any Provider-Retained Permit in a manner that relates, directly or indirectly, to the Transferred Assets without Recipient’s prior written consent.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Provider shall provide Recipient with copies in advance of any permit applications or material correspondence with the issuing governmental authority.  Such copies shall be provided to Recipient prior to their submittal and with enough time to allow Recipient to reasonably review and provide comments thereon, and Provider shall incorporate Recipient’s comments with respect to all matters related to the Transferred Assets.

		
	(iii)
	Any future reduction in limitations set forth in any Provider-Retained Permit shall be shared proportionally across all sources at the relevant location site, and no such reductions shall be imposed disproportionately on the Transferred Assets.

	Each Party acknowledges that the transition of the Transferred Assets may be managed in phases.  For each phase the relevant system data will be extracted and transferred to Recipient.  Both Recipient and Providers will be engaged in the data extraction and transfer process and each shall provide these in a timely manner that is mutually acceptable to the Parties, acting reasonably.  Any data extracted by Providers and transferred to Recipient shall be accompanied by the relevant metadata and metacontent. It may also be necessary for each Provider, acting in its reasonable discretion, to engage third-parties to assist in the data extraction and transfer process.  The cost of any data extraction to the transfer format shall be borne by PBF or such Provider.

GUARANTEE
Guarantee, dated as of April 17, 2020 (this “Guarantee”), by PBF Energy Inc., a Delaware corporation, and PBF Energy Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (each a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”), in favor of Air Products and Chemicals Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).  Reference is hereby made to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Purchase Agreement”), among the Company,  PBF Holding Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”), Delaware City Refining Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Delaware City Refining”), Martinez Refining Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Martinez Refining”) and Torrance Refining Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Torrance Refining”, and together with Delaware City Refining and Martinez Refining, the “Selling Subsidiaries” and each a “Selling Subsidiary”).  Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement.
1.Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees, jointly with the other Guarantor and severally, to the Company, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the full, complete and timely payment, if and when due, of all of the monetary obligations of the Seller and each Selling Subsidiary to the Company or any of its applicable Affiliates set forth in the Purchase Agreement or any Other Transaction Document when required to be paid by the Seller or such Selling Subsidiary (the “Guaranteed Obligations”), in each case, whether such Guaranteed Obligations are now existing or hereafter incurred.  The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) this Guarantee shall in no event be enforced against any Guarantor for any amount in excess of the aggregate amounts due and owing by the Seller and Selling Subsidiaries under any agreement giving rise to a Guaranteed Obligation (including, without limitation, to the extent applicable, any and all limits of indemnification set forth in Section 9.06(a) of the Purchase Agreement) and (ii) neither Guarantor nor any member of the Parent Group (as defined below) shall have any obligation or liability to any Person relating to, arising out of, or in connection with this Guarantee, other than as expressly set forth herein.  The Purchase Agreement and the Other Transaction Documents are referred to herein collectively as the “Transaction Agreements” and each as a “Transaction Agreement”.
2.Terms of Guarantee.
(a)This Guarantee is one of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual of collection of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not of collection.  
(b)The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of the other Guarantor, the Seller or any Selling Subsidiary, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor whether or not action is brought against the other Guarantor, the Seller or any Selling Subsidiary and whether or not such other Guarantor, the Seller or any Selling Subsidiary is joined in any such action or actions.  Any payment required to be made by a Guarantor hereunder may be required by the Company on any number of occasions.
(c)Each Guarantor hereby waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, increase, amendment, modification or accrual, in whole or in part, of any Guaranteed Obligation and notice of or proof of reliance by the Company upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee; provided that this Guarantee may only be enforced against a Guarantor in the event that the payment of the applicable Guaranteed Obligation is due pursuant to the terms of the applicable 

agreement giving rise to such Guaranteed Obligation and the Seller or a Selling Subsidiary owing such payment does not pay such Guaranteed Obligation within the period provided therein.
(d)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Guarantee, except as set forth in the last sentence of this clause (d) or otherwise in Paragraph 7 hereof, the Company hereby agrees that (i) each Guarantor may assert, as a defense to, or release or discharge of, any payment by such Guarantor under this Guarantee, any claim, set-off, deduction, defense or release that the Seller or a Selling Subsidiary could assert against the Company or its applicable Affiliate under the terms of, or with respect to, any agreement giving rise to a Guaranteed Obligation and (ii) any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of any agreement giving rise to a Guaranteed Obligation, including, without limitation, any breach by the Company of any representation, warranty or covenant contained therein or in any of the agreements, certificates and other documents required to be delivered by the Company pursuant to the terms of such agreement (whether such breach results from fraud, intentional misrepresentation or otherwise), that would relieve Seller or any Selling Subsidiary of its obligations under such agreement giving rise to a Guaranteed Obligation shall likewise automatically and without any further action on the part of any Person relieve Guarantor of its obligations under this Guarantee with respect to such Guaranteed Obligation.  Each Guarantor hereby waives any defenses which the Seller or a Selling Subsidiary, as applicable, may have or assert regarding (i) the insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or dissolution of the Seller or such Selling Subsidiary or (ii) the invalidity, illegality, voidability or unenforceability of all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations or any Transaction Agreement as a result of ultra vires or other lack of authority, defective formation or other organizational deficiencies or similar types of defenses.
3.Waiver of Acceptance, Presentment; Etc. Without amending or limiting the other provisions of this Guarantee (including Paragraph 5 hereof), each Guarantor irrevocably waives any election of remedies by the Company, acceptance hereof, promptness, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein or not required to be provided to the Seller, any of the Selling Subsidiaries or any Guarantor under or in connection with any agreement giving rise to a Guaranteed Obligation, other than defenses that are available to the Seller or any Selling Subsidiary (i) under any agreement giving rise to a Guaranteed Obligation, except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 2(d) hereof, (ii) in respect of a breach by the Company of this Guarantee, and (iii) in respect of fraud or willful misconduct of the Company or any of its Affiliates in connection with any agreement giving rise to a Guaranteed Obligation or the transactions contemplated thereby.
4.Sole Remedy. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Guarantee, or any document or instrument delivered contemporaneously herewith, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Guarantee, the Company covenants, acknowledges and agrees that no Person other than the Guarantors has any obligation to it hereunder and that, notwithstanding that a Guarantor may be a limited liability company or corporation, no Person has any right of recovery under this Guarantee against, and no recourse under this Guarantee, under any agreement giving rise to a Guaranteed Obligation or under any document or instrument contemporaneously delivered herewith or in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith, shall be had against, any former, current or future equity holders, controlling Persons, directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, members, managers or general or limited partners of any Guarantor, or any former, current or future equity holder, controlling Person, director, officer, employee, general or limited partner, member, manager or Affiliate of any of the foregoing (collectively, but not including the Guarantors, Seller or any Seller Subsidiary, the “Parent Group”), whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate veil, by or through a claim by or on behalf of the Seller or any of the Selling Subsidiaries against any member of the Parent Group, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or other applicable 

2

law, or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and acknowledged that no liability whatsoever shall attach to, be imposed on, or otherwise be incurred by any member of the Parent Group, for any obligation of any Guarantor under this Guarantee, any Transaction Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith, or for any claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.
5.Termination. With respect to each Guaranteed Obligation, no Guarantor shall have further liability or obligation under this Guarantee from and after the earliest of (i) the termination of the applicable agreement giving rise to such Guaranteed Obligation in accordance with its terms or (ii) on the expiry or full performance thereof; provided that no liability or obligation of any Guarantor hereunder that is due upon or prior to such termination or expiry shall be affected or impaired in any way.  Without limiting the foregoing, this Guarantee shall terminate and the Guarantors shall have no liability or obligation hereunder (except as described in the foregoing proviso) if the Purchase Agreement is terminated pursuant to its terms.  In the event that the Company or any of its Affiliates, security holders or representatives institutes any suit, action or other proceeding or makes any claim (i) asserting that a Guarantor is liable in excess of or to an extent greater than as set forth in Paragraph 1 or (ii) arising under, or in connection with, this Guarantee, any agreement giving rise to a Guaranteed Obligation, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, that is not permitted pursuant to Paragraph 4 hereof, then (x) the obligations of the Guarantors under this Guarantee shall terminate ab initio and be null and void, (y) if a Guarantor has previously made any payments under this Guarantee, such Guarantor shall be entitled to recover such payments from the Company, and (z) none of the Guarantors, Seller, the Selling Subsidiaries or any member of the Parent Group shall have any liability to the Company or any of its Affiliates under this Guarantee or with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations.
6.Continuing Guarantee. Except to the extent that the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantors are terminated pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 5 hereof, this Guarantee is a continuing one and shall remain in full force and effect until the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, shall be binding upon each of the Guarantors, their respective successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Company and its successors and assigns. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Guarantee, the Company hereby agrees that to the extent the Seller or a Selling Subsidiary is relieved (other than pursuant to the defenses waived in Paragraph 2(d) hereof) of any of its obligations in respect of any agreement giving rise to a Guaranteed Obligation, the Guarantors shall be similarly relieved of their Guaranteed Obligations under this Guarantee.
7.Invalidation of Payments. 
(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that its obligations under this Guarantee shall not be released, discharged, diminished, impaired, reduced, or affected for any reason by the occurrence of one or more of the following events, whether or not with notice to or the consent of such Guarantor: (i) any partial release of the liability of the Seller or any Selling Subsidiary, as applicable, for any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations, or the settlement or compromise of any of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than any releases, settlements or compromises with respect to a particular Guaranteed Obligation made pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Transaction Agreement); (ii) the commencement of any proceedings by or against the Seller or any Selling Subsidiary, as applicable, under the Bankruptcy Code (U.S.C. Title 11) or any other liquidation, conservatorship, bankruptcy, moratorium, rearrangement, receivership, insolvency, reorganization or similar debtor relief laws affecting the rights of creditors generally (collectively, “Debtor Relief Law”), any stay or ruling thereunder, or the disallowance of any claim thereunder; 

3

(iii) any modification, waiver, amendment or rearrangement of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations or any instrument, document or agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise relating to any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than any modification, waiver, amendment or rearrangement with respect to a particular Guaranteed Obligation made pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Transaction Agreement, including any discharge of any Guarantor with respect to all, or a portion, of the Guaranteed Obligations as result of payment of all, or such portion, of the Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with their applicable terms); (iv) any neglect, delay, omission, failure or refusal of the Company to take or prosecute any action for the collection of any of the Guaranteed Obligations (including any action to pursue rights or remedies against the Seller or any Selling Subsidiary); (v) the unenforceability or invalidity of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations or of any instrument, document, or agreement evidencing, securing, or otherwise relating to any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations, including any Transaction Agreement; (vi) any payment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations by the Seller, any Selling Subsidiary or any Guarantor that is held to constitute a preference under any applicable Debtor Relief Law or if for any other reason the Company is required by applicable law to refund any payment or pay the amount thereof to someone else; (vii) any change in the corporate, partnership, or limited liability company, as applicable, existence, structure, or ownership of the Seller or any Selling Subsidiary, as applicable; or (viii) the assignment of any right, title or interest of the Company in any Transaction Agreement to any other Person pursuant to such Transaction Agreement to the extent permitted by and in accordance therewith. 
(b)In the event any payment by the Seller or any Selling Subsidiary to the Company is held to constitute a preference, fraudulent transfer or other voidable payment under any Debtor Relief Law or if for any other reason the Company is required by applicable law to refund such payment or pay the amount thereof to any other Person, such payment by the Seller or such Selling Subsidiary, as applicable, or any other party to the Company shall not constitute a release of any Guarantor from any liability hereunder and this Guarantee shall continue to be effective and shall be reinstated, as the case may be, with respect to, and this Guarantee shall apply to, any and all amounts so refunded by the Company or paid by the Company to such other Person (all of which amounts shall constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations).  The failure of the Company to file a claim (or proof of claim) in the event that the Seller or any Selling Subsidiary becomes subject to a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding shall not affect any Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities hereunder. If the time for payment of any amount payable by the Seller or any Selling Subsidiary, as applicable, is stayed or delayed by any law or tribunal (unless such stay or delay is a result of a dispute arising under the applicable Transaction Agreement or would not otherwise be permitted by Law), any amounts due and payable hereunder nonetheless shall be payable by the applicable Guarantor on demand by the Company.
8.Representation and Warranties of Guarantors.  Each Guarantor represents and warrants to the Company that: (a) such Guarantor has received, or will receive, direct or indirect benefit from the making of this Guarantee; (b) such Guarantor is a corporation or limited liability company, as applicable, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the State of Delaware; (c) such Guarantor has the requisite corporate or limited liability company authority, as applicable, to enter into this Guarantee and to perform its obligations hereunder; (d) the execution, delivery and performance of this Guarantee have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of such Guarantor; (e) this Guarantee has been duly executed and delivered by such Guarantor and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms; (f) the execution, delivery and performance of this Guarantee will not (i) violate any provision of the articles of organization, or other governing instruments of such Guarantor or (ii) violate any judgment, order, ruling, 

4

or regulation applicable to such Guarantor; (g) the execution, delivery and performance of this Guarantee by such Guarantor will not be subject to any consent, approval or waiver from any Governmental Authority or other third Person; (h) such Guarantor possesses the necessary financial capability to discharge the Guaranteed Obligations if so required by this Guarantee as of the date hereof; and (i) there is no material claim of which such Guarantor has received notice, suit, action, charge, cause of action, litigation, hearing, investigation, indictment or administrative, arbitration, alternative dispute resolution or other similar proceeding pending or, to such Guarantor’s actual knowledge, threatened against such Guarantor which, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder.
9.Entire Agreement.  This Guarantee, together with each agreement giving rise to a Guaranteed Obligation, constitutes the entire agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior discussions, negotiations, proposals, undertakings, understandings and agreements, whether written or oral, among the Seller, the Selling Subsidiaries, the Guarantors and the Company or any of its Affiliates.
10.Amendments and Waivers.  No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guarantee will be valid and binding unless it is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by each Guarantor and the Company, or in the case of waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective.  No waiver by any party of any breach or violation of, or default under, this Guarantee, whether intentional or not, will be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent breach, violation or default hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.  No delay or omission on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Guarantee will operate as a waiver thereof.
11.No Third Party Beneficiaries.  Except for the provisions of this Guarantee which reference the Parent Group (each of which shall be for the benefit of and enforceable by each member of the Parent Group), the parties hereby agree that this Guarantee is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Guarantee.
12.Counterparts.  This Guarantee may be executed and delivered (including by e-mail transmission) in one or more counterparts.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Guarantee or any agreement entered into in connection herewith shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
13.Governing Law; Dispute Resolution.  
a.This Guarantee shall be governed in all respects, including as to validity, interpretation and effect, by the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to its principles or rules of conflict of laws, to the extent such principles or rules are not mandatorily applicable by statute and would permit or require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.  
b.Any dispute under this Guarantee that arises out of or relates to the Purchase Agreement shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration pursuant to the arbitration clause contained in Section 10.14 of the Purchase Agreement, which is incorporated by reference herein. 

5

i.If one or more arbitrations are already pending with respect to a dispute arising out of or relating to the Purchase Agreement, including any dispute arising under this Paragraph 14(b) of the Guarantee, then any party to either dispute may request that the arbitral panel in the first-commenced arbitration order that such new dispute or any subsequently filed arbitration be consolidated into that prior pending arbitration.  The new dispute or subsequently-filed arbitration shall be so consolidated, provided that the arbitral panel in the first-commenced arbitration determines that: (1) the new dispute or subsequently filed arbitration presents significant issues of law or fact common with those in the prior pending arbitration; (2) no party to the new dispute or prior pending arbitration would be unduly prejudiced; and (3) consolidation under these circumstances would not result in undue delay for the prior pending arbitration.  Any such order of consolidation issued by the arbitral panel shall be final and binding upon the parties to the new dispute, prior pending or subsequently filed arbitrations.  The parties waive any right they have to appeal or seek interpretation, revision, or annulment of such order of consolidation in any court.  The arbitral panel for the prior pending arbitration in to which a new dispute or subsequently filed arbitration is consolidated shall serve as the arbitral panel for the consolidated arbitration.  The parties agree that upon such order of consolidation, they will promptly dismiss any arbitration brought pursuant to this Paragraph 14(b) or pursuant to the arbitration clause contained in Section 10.14 of the Purchase Agreement, the subject of which has been consolidated into another arbitral proceeding.
ii.Each party agrees that it may be joined as an additional party to an arbitration already pending with respect to a dispute arising out of or relating to the Purchase Agreement, including a dispute under this Guarantee that arises out of or relates to the Purchase Agreement, or that it may intervene in any such arbitration.  A party will be joined, or will be permitted to intervene, in any such arbitration, provided that the arbitral panel in that arbitration determines that: (1) no party in that arbitration would be unduly prejudiced; and (2) joinder or intervention would not result in undue delay for that arbitration.
c.All disputes arising out of or relating to this Guarantee other than those subject to Paragraph 14(b), including those that arise out of or relate to the Other Transaction Documents, shall be resolved in a court of competent jurisdiction located in the State of New York or the federal courts sitting in the Southern District of New York (the "New York Courts").  Each of the parties hereto submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts in any action or proceeding falling under this Paragraph 14(c), agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court and agrees not to bring any such action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guarantee in any other court.  Each of the parties hereto waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety or other security that might be required of any other party with respect thereto.  Nothing in this Paragraph 14(c), however, shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law.  Each party hereto agrees that a final, non-appealable judgment in any action or proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law..
14.WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES TO THIS GUARANTEE EACH HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION (I) ARISING UNDER THIS GUARANTEE 

6

OR (II) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELEATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO IN RESPECT OF THIS GUARANTEE OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY, OR OTHERWISE.  THE PARTIES TO THIS GUARANTEE EACH HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT THE PARTIES TO THIS GUARANTEE MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS GUARANTEE WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.
15.Assignment.  Any Guarantor may assign all or a portion of its obligations under this Guarantee to any of its Affiliates without the prior consent of the Company; provided, that such Guarantor shall remain liable for its entire obligations hereunder. 
16.Severability.  Any term or provision of this Guarantee that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction; provided, however, that this Guarantee may not be enforced without giving effect to the limitation that the maximum amount payable hereunder shall not be in excess of or to an extent greater than as set forth in Paragraph 1.  No party hereto shall assert, and each party shall cause its respective Affiliates, security holders and representatives not to assert, that this Guarantee or any part hereof is invalid, illegal or unenforceable.
17.Confidentiality.  This Guarantee is confidential and is being provided to the Company solely in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements. This Guarantee may not be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to in any document, except with the written consent of the Guarantors and the Company; provided, however, that each Guarantor and the Company may disclose the existence of this Guarantee to the extent required by applicable law or in connection with any litigation, arbitration or mediation relating to any agreement giving rise to a Guaranteed Obligation or the transactions contemplated thereby or to each party’s respective officers, directors, employees, advisors, representatives, agents and financing sources.
18.Subrogation.  Each Guarantor hereby waives and shall not exercise any rights that it may acquire by way of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement or indemnification for payment or performance made under this Guarantee until all Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly performed or paid and discharged in full.
