Statement; 

  

	(b)	the failure of the applicable Non-Public Company Group Member to have all consents, licenses and permits necessary to allow any such pipeline referred to in clause (a) of this Section 3.02 to cross the
roads, waterways, railroads and other areas upon which any such pipeline is located as of the Effective Date, in each case, to the extent and only to the extent that such failure renders the Public Company Group liable to a third party or unable to
use or operate the Assets in substantially the same manner that the Assets were used and operated by the applicable Non-Public Company Group Member immediately prior to the Effective Date as described in the Registration Statement; and

  

	(c)	the cost of curing any condition set forth in clause (a) or (b) of this Section 3.02 that does not allow any Asset to be operated in accordance with Prudent Industry Practice;

 in each case, to the extent that Hess is notified in writing of any of the foregoing prior to the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date.
Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.02 to the contrary, to the extent that such Right of Way, fee ownership or leasehold interest can be acquired and the cost and expense of such acquisition is recovered by an increase to the fees
payable to the Public Company Group under the Tariff Agreements, no indemnity shall be owed under this Section 3.02.

reason of or arising out of any of the following: 
  

	(a)	(i) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement or (ii) events and conditions associated with the ownership or operation of the Assets and occurring before the Effective Date
(other than Covered Environmental Losses, which are provided for under Section 3.01, Covered Property Losses, which are provided for under Section 3.02, and current liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business that
have been accrued but not paid prior to the Effective Date), to the extent that Takota LP is notified in writing of any such Loss prior to the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date; 

 

	(b)	any litigation matters attributable to the ownership or operation of the Assets prior to the Effective Date, including any currently pending legal actions against any of the Hess Entities or any Non-Public Company Group
Member; 

  

	(c)	events and conditions associated with the Retained Assets and whether occurring before, on or after the Effective Date; 

  

	(d)	all federal, state and local Tax liabilities attributable to the ownership or operation of the Assets prior to the Effective Date, including under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 (or any similar provision of
state or local law), and any such Tax liabilities of any of the Hess Entities or Non-Public Company Group Members that may result from the consummation of the formation transactions for the Public Company Group occurring on or prior to the Effective
Date or from the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement; and 

  

	(e)	the failure of any Public Company Group Member to have on the Effective Date any consent, license, permit or approval necessary to allow such Public Company Group Member to own or operate the Assets in substantially the
same manner described in the Registration Statement. 

 Section 3.04 Additional Indemnification by the Public Company Group. In addition
to and not in limitation of the indemnification provided under Section 3.01(c) or in the Partnership Agreement, the Public Company Group shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Hess Entities and the Non-Public Company Group
Members from and against any Losses suffered or incurred by the Hess Entities, the Non-Public Company Group Members or any of them, by reason of or arising out of events and conditions associated with the ownership or operation of the Assets (other
than the Joint Interest Assets) and occurring after the Effective Date (other than Covered Environmental Losses which are provided for under Section 3.01), unless such indemnification would not be permitted under the Partnership
Agreement by reason of one of the provisos contained in Section 7.7(a) of the Partnership Agreement. 

  
 13 

 Section 3.05 Additional Indemnification by HTGP Opco. In addition to and not in limitation of the
indemnification provided under Section 3.01(d) or in the Partnership Agreement, HTGP Opco shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Hess Entities and the Non-Public Company Group Members from and against any Losses suffered or
incurred by the Hess Entities, the Non-Public Company Group Members or any of them, by reason of or arising out of events and conditions associated with the ownership or operation of the HTGP Assets and occurring after the Effective Date (other than
Covered Environmental Losses which are provided for under Section 3.01), unless such indemnification would not be permitted under the Partnership Agreement by reason of one of the provisos contained in Section 7.7(a) of the
Partnership Agreement. 
 Section 3.06 Additional Indemnification by Logistics Opco. In addition to and not in limitation of the indemnification
provided under Section 3.01(e) or in the Partnership Agreement, Logistics Opco shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Hess Entities and the Non-Public Company Group Members from and against any Losses suffered or incurred by the
Hess Entities, the Non-Public Company Group Members or any of them, by reason of or arising out of events and conditions associated with the ownership or operation of the Logistics Assets and occurring after the Effective Date (other than Covered
Environmental Losses which are provided for under Section 3.01), unless such indemnification would not be permitted under the Partnership Agreement by reason of one of the provisos contained in Section 7.7(a) of the Partnership
Agreement. 
 Section 3.07 Indemnification Procedures. 
  

	(a)	The Indemnified Party agrees that within a reasonable period of time after it becomes aware of facts giving rise to a claim for indemnification under this Article III, it will provide notice thereof in writing to
the Indemnifying Party, specifying the nature of and specific basis for such claim. 

  

	(b)	The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to control all aspects of the defense of (and any counterclaims with respect to) any claims brought against the Indemnified Party that are covered by the indemnification under
this Article III, including the selection of counsel, determination of whether to appeal any decision of any court and the settling of any such claim or any matter or any issues relating thereto; provided that no such settlement shall
be entered into without the consent of the Indemnified Party unless it includes a full and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from such claim; provided, however, that no such settlement containing any form of injunctive or similar
relief shall be entered into without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld. 

  

	(c)	 The Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner with the Indemnifying Party with respect to all
aspects of the defense of, and the pursuit of any counterclaims with respect to, any claims 

  
 14 

	 	
covered by the indemnification under this Article III for which a request for indemnification is made, including the prompt furnishing to the Indemnifying Party of any correspondence or
other notice relating thereto that the Indemnified Party may receive, permitting the name of the Indemnified Party to be utilized in connection with such defense or counterclaims, the making available to the Indemnifying Party of any files, records
or other information of the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party considers relevant to such defense or counterclaims, the making available to the Indemnifying Party of any employees of the Indemnified Party and the granting to the
Indemnifying Party of reasonable access rights to the properties and facilities of the Indemnified Party; provided that in connection therewith the Indemnifying Party agrees to use reasonable efforts to minimize the impact thereof on the
operations of the Indemnified Party and further agrees to maintain the confidentiality of all files, records, and other information furnished by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 3.07(c). In no event shall the obligation of
the Indemnified Party to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence be construed as imposing upon the Indemnified Party an obligation to hire and pay for counsel in connection with the defense of, or the
pursuit of any counterclaims with respect to, any claims covered by the indemnification set forth in this Article III; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may, at its own option, cost and expense, engage and pay for counsel
in connection with any such defense and counterclaims. The Indemnifying Party agrees to keep any such counsel engaged by the Indemnified Party informed as to the status of any such defense, but the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to retain
sole control over such defense and counterclaims. 

  

	(d)	In determining the amount of any loss, cost, damage or expense for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the gross amount of the indemnification will be reduced by (i) any
insurance proceeds realized by the Indemnified Party, and such correlative insurance benefit shall be net of any incremental insurance premium that becomes due and payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of such claim and (ii) all amounts
recovered by the Indemnified Party under contractual indemnities from third Persons. 

  

	(e)	With respect to Covered Environmental Losses, Takota LP shall have the sole right and authority to manage any remediation required by Applicable Law, and, upon reasonable request from Takota LP, the Partnership will,
and will cause each other Public Company Group Member to, cooperate with Takota LP and its contractors or subcontractors to facilitate such remediation. 

Section 3.08 Limitations on Indemnity Coverage. 
  

	(a)	 With respect to Covered Environmental Losses under Section 3.01(a)(i) or Section 3.01(a)(ii), Takota LP shall not be obligated
to indemnify, defend and hold harmless any Public Company Group Member unless the applicable Covered Environmental Loss exceeds $100,000 (the “Environmental Deductible”), at

  
 15 

	 	
which time Takota LP shall be obligated to indemnify such Public Company Group Member for the amount of all Environmental Losses incurred by such Public Company Group Member; provided,
however, that to the extent any cure or remediation of any environmental matter is required under Section 3.01(a)(i) or Section 3.01(a)(ii), Takota LP will be obligated to indemnify the Public Company Group only to the
extent of any cure or remediation that is required by Applicable Law (after giving effect to the Environmental Deductible); provided further, that in no event shall Takota LP be obligated to indemnify the Public Company Group for any Covered
Environmental Losses under Section 3.01(a)(i) or Section 3.01(a)(ii) in excess of $15,000,000 in the aggregate (the “Environmental Cap”). For the avoidance of doubt, it is agreed that the Environmental
Deductible shall not apply to any Covered Environmental Losses incurred by any Public Company Group Member related to the matters set forth on Schedule I attached hereto. 

 

	(b)	With respect to Covered Property Losses under Section 3.02, Takota LP shall not be obligated to indemnify, defend and hold harmless any Public Company Group Member unless the applicable Covered Property Loss
exceeds $50,000 (the “Property Deductible”), at which time Takota LP shall be obligated to indemnify such Public Company Group Member for the amount of all Covered Property Losses incurred by such Public Company Group Member;
provided, however, that to the extent the Public Company Group attempts to cure any matter for which it is entitled to indemnification under Section 3.02, Takota LP will be obligated to indemnify the Public Company Group only to
the extent of any reasonably required cure (after giving effect to the Property Deductible). 

  

	(c)	For the avoidance of doubt, there is no deductible with respect to the indemnification owed by any Indemnifying Party under any portion of this Article III other than as described in this
Section 3.08, and there is no monetary cap on the amount of indemnity coverage provided by any Indemnifying Party under this Article III other than as described in this Section 3.08. 

ARTICLE IV. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES 

Section 4.01 General. Hess agrees to provide to the Company, for the Public Company Group’s benefit, the general and administrative services that
Hess and its Affiliates have traditionally provided in connection with the ownership and operation of the Assets and any other assets held from and after the Effective Date by any Public Company Group Member, which include the services set forth on
Schedule II (the “General and Administrative Services”). Hess may subcontract with Affiliates or third parties for the provision of such General and Administrative Services to the Company (for and on behalf of the
Public Company Group). The Company may terminate any specific General and Administrative Service upon 30 days’ prior written Notice to Hess. 

  
 16 

 Section 4.02 Reimbursement and Allocation. 

 

	(a)	As consideration for Hess’s provision of the General and Administrative Services, the Company will, or will cause another Public Company Group Member to, reimburse Hess for all reasonable direct and indirect costs
and expenses incurred by Hess in connection with the provision of the General and Administrative Services, including the following: 

  

	 	(i)	total costs, plus the relevant percentage mark-up set forth in Schedule IV, of each employee of, and each contractor, subcontractor, or other outside personnel engaged by, Hess to the extent, but only to the
extent, such employees and outside personnel perform General and Administrative Services for the Public Company Group’s benefit; 

  

	 	(ii)	any expenses incurred or payments made by Hess on behalf of the Public Company Group for insurance coverage with respect to the Assets or the business of the Public Company Group; 

 

	 	(iii)	all expenses and expenditures incurred by Hess on behalf of the Public Company Group as a result of the Partnership becoming and continuing as a publicly traded entity, including costs associated with annual, quarterly
or current reports, independent auditor fees, partnership governance and compliance, registrar and transfer agent fees, exchange listing fees, tax return and Schedule K-1 preparation and distribution, legal fees, independent director compensation
and director and officer liability insurance premiums; and 

  

	 	(iv)	any other out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Hess in providing the General and Administrative Services, as well as any other out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred on behalf of the Public Company Group. For
the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall, or shall cause another Public Company Group Member to, reimburse Hess for all tax costs and expenses incurred or payments made by Hess on behalf of the Public Company Group, including all sales, use,
excise, value added, margin, franchise or similar taxes, if any, that may be applicable from time to time with respect to the ownership and operation of the Assets or with respect to the General and Administrative Services provided by Hess to the
Public Company Group pursuant to Section 4.01. 

 To the extent any of the costs and expenses identified in this
Section 4.02 are reimbursed on an allocation basis, such allocation shall be determined by Hess’s then-current corporate transfer pricing practices, as generally applied in a non-discriminatory manner. 

 

	(b)	 Within 20 days following the end of each month during the term of this Agreement, Hess shall send to the Company an invoice (in a form mutually agreed
by the Parties) of the amounts due and payable by the Company (for and on behalf of the Public Company Group) for such month, including any 

  
 17 

	 	
adjustments due pursuant to the terms of this Section 4.02(b) by the Company (for and on behalf of the Public Company Group). The Company shall, or shall cause another Public Company
Group Member to, pay such invoice by the later of (i) 30 days of receipt and (ii) the last Business Day of the month in which the Company received such invoice, except for any amounts that are being disputed in good faith by the Company.
If Hess determines that the amount reflected on any invoice previously sent to, and paid by, the Company (or another Public Company Group Member, as applicable) did not accurately state the amounts owed by the Company (for and on behalf of the
Public Company Group) under this Article IV, Hess shall include appropriate adjustments on the next invoice; provided, however, that such adjustments shall be included only to the extent they relate to a month in the same calendar
quarter as such invoice relates; provided further that Hess and the Company shall negotiate, in good faith, the timing of payment of any such adjustments. Any such adjustments shall be separately stated on each invoice and computed in such
detail as is mutually agreed by Hess and the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, any adjustments that do not relate to a month in the same calendar quarter as such invoice relates shall not be due and payable by the Company or any other Public
Company Group Member. Any amounts that the Company has disputed in good faith and that are later determined by any court or other competent authority having jurisdiction, or by agreement of the Parties, to be owing from the Company (for and on
behalf of the Public Company Group) to Hess shall be paid in full within ten days of such determination, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate from the date due under the original invoice until the date of payment. Until such time as a
Takota Change of Control has occurred, the Company and Hess may settle the Company’s financial obligations to Hess hereunder through Hess’s normal interaffiliate settlement processes. 

 

	(c)	For the avoidance of doubt, the General and Administrative Services provided by Hess pursuant to this Article IV will be in addition to, and not in duplication of, the services that will be provided to the Public
Company Group by certain Hess Entities under the Operational Services Agreement and the functions performed by the employees seconded to the Public Company Group under the Secondment Agreement, and Hess shall not be entitled to reimbursement under
this Agreement for any costs or expenses for which Hess is entitled to payment or reimbursement under the Operational Services Agreement or which are intended to be covered by the Secondment Fee under the Secondment Agreement. 

Section 4.03 Services Standard. Hess shall perform the General and Administrative Services using at least the same level of care, quality, timeliness,
skill and adherence to applicable industry standards as Hess does in providing similar services to its own Affiliates. 

  
 18 

 ARTICLE V. RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER 

Section 5.01 Right of First Offer to Purchase Certain Assets. 
  

	(a)	Takota LP, on behalf of itself and the other Non-Public Company Group Members, hereby grants to the Partnership a right of first offer, for a period (the “ROFO Period”) beginning at the Effective
Date and ending at the earlier of (i) ten years from the Effective Date, and (ii) the occurrence of a Takota Change of Control, on all or any part of the ROFO Assets to the extent that any Non-Public Company Group Member proposes to
Transfer all or any part of any ROFO Asset; provided, however, that any Non-Public Company Group Member may Transfer all or any part of any ROFO Asset to another Non-Public Company Group Member that agrees in writing that such ROFO Asset
remains subject to the provisions of this Article V and such Non-Public Company Group Member assumes the obligations of Takota LP under this Article V with respect to such ROFO Asset. 

 

	(b)	The Parties acknowledge that any Transfer of all or any part of any ROFO Asset pursuant to the Partnership’s right of first offer is subject to the terms of all existing agreements with respect to the ROFO Assets
and shall be subject to and conditioned on the obtaining of any and all necessary consents of security holders, Governmental Authorities, lenders or other third parties; provided, however, that Takota LP hereby represents and warrants that,
to its knowledge after reasonable investigation, there are no terms in such agreements that would materially impair the rights granted to the Public Company Group pursuant to this Article V with respect to any ROFO Asset. 

Section 5.02 Procedures. 
  

	(a)	If any Non-Public Company Group Member proposes to Transfer all or any part of any applicable ROFO Asset (other than to another Non-Public Company Group Member in accordance with Section 5.01(a)) during the
ROFO Period (a “Proposed Transaction”), then Takota LP shall, prior to such Non-Public Company Group Member entering into any such Proposed Transaction, first give notice in writing to the Partnership (the “ROFO
Notice”) of the intention to enter into such Proposed Transaction. The ROFO Notice shall include any material terms, conditions and details as would be necessary for the Partnership to make a responsive offer to enter into the Proposed
Transaction with the applicable Non-Public Company Group Member, which terms, conditions and details shall at a minimum include any terms, condition or details that such Non-Public Company Group Member would propose to provide to Persons who are not
Non-Public Company Group Members in connection with the Proposed Transaction. If the Partnership determines to purchase the ROFO Assets, the Partnership shall have 60 days following receipt of the ROFO Notice to submit a written offer to Takota LP
to enter into the Proposed Transaction with such Non-Public Company Group Member (the “ROFO Response”). The ROFO Response shall set forth the terms and conditions (including the purchase price the Partnership proposes to pay
for the ROFO Asset and the other terms of the purchase) pursuant to which the Partnership would be willing to enter into a binding agreement for the Proposed Transaction. If no ROFO Response is delivered by the Partnership within such 60-day period,
then the Partnership shall be deemed to have waived its right of first offer with respect to such ROFO Asset, subject to Section 5.02(c). 

  
 19 

	(b)	Unless the ROFO Response is rejected pursuant to written notice delivered by Takota LP to the Partnership within 60 days of the delivery to Takota LP of the ROFO Response, such ROFO Response shall be deemed to have been
accepted by Takota LP, and such Non-Public Company Group Member shall enter into an agreement with the Partnership providing for the consummation of the Proposed Transaction upon the terms set forth in the ROFO Response. Unless otherwise agreed
between Takota LP, the applicable Non-Public Company Group Member and the Partnership, the terms of the purchase and sale agreement shall include the following: 

  

	 	(i)	the Partnership shall deliver the agreed purchase price (in cash, Partnership Securities, an interest-bearing promissory note, or any combination thereof); 

 

	 	(ii)	such Non-Public Company Group Member shall represent that it has title to the applicable ROFO Asset that is sufficient to own and operate the applicable ROFO Asset in accordance with its intended and historical use,
subject to all recorded matters and all physical conditions in existence on the closing date for the purchase of the applicable ROFO Asset, plus any other such matters as the Partnership may approve; 

 

	 	(iii)	the closing date for the purchase of the ROFO Asset shall occur no later than 180 days following receipt by Takota LP, on behalf of the applicable Non-Public Company Group Member, as applicable, of the ROFO Response
pursuant to Section 5.02(a); 

  

	 	(iv)	each of Takota LP, such other Non-Public Company Group Member and the Partnership shall use commercially reasonable efforts to do or cause to be done all things that may be reasonably necessary or advisable to
effectuate the consummation of any transactions contemplated by this Section 5.02(b), including causing its respective Affiliates to execute, deliver and perform all documents, notices, amendments, certificates, instruments and consents
required in connection therewith; and 

  

	 	(v)	neither Takota LP, such other Non-Public Company Group Member nor the Partnership shall have any obligation to sell or buy the applicable ROFO Asset if any consent referred to in Section 5.01(b) has not been
obtained. 

  

	(c)	 If the Partnership does not timely deliver a ROFO Response as specified above with respect to a Proposed Transaction that is subject to a ROFO Notice,
Takota LP or such other Non-Public Company Group Member, as applicable, shall be free to enter into a Proposed Transaction with any third party on terms and conditions no more favorable to such third party than those set forth in the ROFO

  
 20 

	 	
Notice. If Takota LP rejects a ROFO Response with respect to any Proposed Transaction, Takota LP or such other Non-Public Company Group Member, as applicable, shall be free to enter into a
Proposed Transaction with any third party (i) on terms and conditions (excluding those relating to price) that are not more favorable in the aggregate to such third party than those proposed in respect of the Public Company Group in the ROFO
Response and (ii) at a price equal to no less than 100% of the price offered by the Partnership in the ROFO Response to Takota LP. 

  

	(d)	Takota LP agrees that, if requested by the Partnership, Takota LP shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide information reasonably requested by the Partnership in order for the Partnership to prepare such
financial statements with respect to any ROFO Assets transferred to the Partnership pursuant to this Article V that meet the requirements of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder. 

  

	(e)	The Partnership can assign its rights and obligations under this Article V to any Public Company Group Member. 

ARTICLE VI. LICENSE OF NAME AND MARK 

Section 6.01 Grant of License. Upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Article VI, Hess hereby grants and conveys to each of the Persons
currently or hereafter comprising a part of the Public Company Group a nontransferable, nonexclusive, royalty-free right and license (“License”) to use the name “Hess” (the “Name”) and any
other trademarks or tradenames owned by Hess that contain the Name (collectively, the “Marks”). 
 Section 6.02 Ownership and
Quality. The Partnership agrees that ownership of the Name and/or the Marks and, in each case, the goodwill relating thereto shall remain vested in Hess both during the term of this License and thereafter, and the Partnership further agrees, and
agrees to cause the other Public Company Group Members, never to challenge, contest or question the validity of Hess’s ownership of the Name and/or the Marks or any registration thereof by Hess. In connection with the use of the Name and/or the
Marks, the Partnership and any other Public Company Group Members shall not in any manner represent that they have any ownership in the Name and the Marks or registration thereof except as set forth herein, and the Partnership, on behalf of itself
and the other Public Company Group Members, acknowledge that the use of the Name and/or the Marks shall not create any right, title or interest in or to the Name and/or the Marks, and all use of the Name and/or the Marks by the Partnership or any
other Public Company Group Members, shall inure to the benefit of Hess. The Partnership agrees, and agrees to cause the other Public Company Group Members, to use the Name and/or the Marks in accordance with such quality standards established by
Hess and communicated to the Partnership from time to time, it being understood that the products and services offered by the Public Company Group Members immediately before the Effective Date are of a quality that is acceptable to Hess and
justifies the License. 

  
 21 

 Section 6.03 Termination. The License shall terminate upon any termination of this Agreement. The License
shall terminate, with respect to any Person that no longer qualifies as a Public Company Group Member, as of the time such Person no longer qualifies as a Public Company Group Member. In the event of a termination of the License as described in this
Section 6.03, as promptly as practicable, but in any event within 60 days after any such termination, any such Person that no longer qualifies as a Public Company Group Member shall eliminate the Name and the Marks, including any and all
variants thereof, from its assets, legal name and any of its other properties and, except with respect to such grace period for eliminating existing usage set forth in this Section 6.03, shall cease the use of the Name and the Marks.

 ARTICLE VII. NOTICES 

Section 7.01 Notices. All written notices, requests, demands and other communications required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be

waive any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought in such courts, irrevocably waive any claim that any such action, suit or
proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum and further irrevocably waive the right to object, with respect to such claim, action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court that such court does not have

Recipient on a monthly basis with respect to Services provided during the preceding month to such Service Recipient, with any such invoice including any and all fees payable hereunder with respect to such Services, all amounts reimbursable to such

to, pay such invoice by the later of (i) 30 calendar days after receipt of the Service Provider’s 

  
 7 

 
invoice and (ii) the last Business Day of the month in which the applicable Service Recipient received such invoice, except for any amounts that are being disputed in good faith by the
General Partner. If the Service Provider determines that the amount reflected on any invoice previously sent to, and paid by, the Service Recipient (or its Affiliate, as applicable) did not accurately state the amounts owed by such Service Recipient
under this Section 4(a), the Service Provider shall include appropriate adjustments on the next invoice; provided, however, that such adjustments shall be included only to the extent that they relate to a month in the same
calendar quarter as such invoice relates; provided further that the Service Recipient and the Service Provider shall negotiate, in good faith, the timing of payment of any such adjustments. Any such adjustments shall be separately stated and
computed in such detail as is mutually agreed by the Service Recipient and the Service Provider. For the avoidance of doubt, any adjustments that do not relate to a month in the same calendar quarter as such invoice relates shall not be due and
payable by the Service Recipient or its Affiliates. Any past due payments owed by a Service Recipient to a Service Provider shall accrue interest, payable on demand, at the Interest Rate from the due date of the payment through the actual date of
payment. 
 (b) The Parties shall keep books of account and other records, in reasonable detail and in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and industry standards, consistently applied, with respect to the Services provided and the fees charged hereunder, including time logs (or similar time-allocation materials), receipts and other related back-up materials. Such
books of account and other records shall be open for a Service Recipient’s inspection during normal business hours, upon at least five Business Days’ prior written Notice, for at least 12 months following the end of the calendar year in
which such Services were provided. This inspection right will include the right of the applicable Service Recipient to have its accountants or auditors review such books and records. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if an audit
reveals that the Service Recipient (or its Affiliate, as applicable) paid more than the applicable fees for any applicable audited period or service, the Service Provider shall reimburse the Service Recipient (or its Affiliate, as applicable) for
any amounts overpaid, together with interest at the Interest Rate accruing from the date such fees were paid by the Service Recipient (or its Affiliate, as applicable) to the date any overpayment was reimbursed by the Service Provider. 

 

	5.	TERM; RENEWAL 

 Subject to Section 8, this Agreement shall have a term
beginning on the Effective Date and shall terminate on the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”); provided, however, that this Agreement may be extended by the General Partner for one renewal
term of ten years (the “Renewal Term”). To commence the Renewal Term, the General Partner shall provide written Notice to Hess of the General Partner’s intent to renew this Agreement no less than 90 days prior to the end

overall responsibility for managing and coordinating the performance of the 

  
 8 

 
Parties’ obligations under this Agreement and (iii) be authorized to act for and on behalf of the appointing Parties concerning all matters relating to this Agreement. The General Partner

 (b) Access to Premises. Each Party shall give
the other Parties reasonable access to its and its Affiliates’ premises as may be required for the other Parties to provide or receive the Services hereunder. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Parties, each Party and its Affiliates
shall: (i) use the premises of the other Parties solely for the purpose of providing or receiving the Services and not to provide goods or services to or for the benefit of any third party or for any unlawful purpose; (ii) comply with all
policies and procedures governing access to and use of such premises made known to such Party in advance, including all reasonable security requirements applicable to accessing the premises and any systems, technologies, or assets of the other
Parties; (iii) instruct its employees, personnel, contractors, subcontractors and vendors, when visiting the premises, not to photograph or record, duplicate, remove, disclose, or transmit to a third party any of the other Parties’
Confidential Information, except as necessary to perform or receive the Services; and (iv) return such space to the other Parties in the same condition it was in prior to such Party’s use of such space, ordinary wear and tear excepted.

 (c) Access to Systems. If any Party has been provided access (either on-site or remotely) to any other Party’s electronic
information systems and records in connection with the Services, such Party shall limit such access solely to the use of such systems and records for purposes of the provision or receipt of the Services and shall not access, or attempt to access,
the other Parties’ electronic information systems or records other than as may be agreed to by such Parties to the extent required for the provision or receipt of Services or those that are publicly available (e.g., public websites).
Each Party shall limit such access to those of its employees, agents and representatives that have a bona fide need for such access in connection with the Services. Each Party shall follow, and shall cause all of its applicable employees,
agents and representatives to follow, all of the other Parties’ security rules and procedures when accessing such Parties’ systems. All user identification numbers and passwords disclosed by a Party to any other Party and any information
obtained by a Party as a result of such Party’s access to and use of any other Party’s computer systems shall be deemed to be, and treated as, Confidential Information of such other Party. Each Party shall cooperate in the investigation of
any apparent unauthorized access to any electronic information system or records of any Party. 
 (d) Data Back-Up and Security. The
Parties shall maintain industry standard data back-up and recovery procedures, as well as an industry standard disaster avoidance and recovery plan, in connection with all of its systems used in performing the Services. Each Service Provider shall
maintain and enforce physical, technical and logical security procedures with respect to the access and maintenance of any Confidential Information of the other Parties that is in such Service Provider’s possession, which procedures shall:
(i) be at least equal to industry standards; (ii) be in full compliance with Applicable Law; and (iii) provide reasonably appropriate physical, technical and organizational safeguards against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss,
alteration, unauthorized disclosure, theft or misuse. 

  
 9 

 (e) Use of Resources. Each Service Provider shall have the right to use contractors,
subcontractors, vendors or other third parties to assist such Service Provider in the provision of the Services hereunder. Such Service Provider shall be responsible for the Services performed by its respective subcontractors, and such Service
Provider shall be the applicable Service Recipient’s primary point of contact regarding the Services provided by such Service Provider hereunder, including with respect to payment. No contractor, subcontractor, vendor or other third party will
be provided access to any Confidential Information of any Service Recipient without first agreeing to protect such Confidential Information. 

(f) Taxes. Each Service Recipient shall pay or cause to be paid all taxes, levies, royalties, assessments, licenses, fees, charges,
surcharges and sums due of any nature whatsoever (other than income taxes, gross receipt taxes and similar taxes) imposed by any federal, state or local government that the applicable Service Provider incurs on such Service Recipient’s behalf
for the Services provided by such Service Provider under this Agreement. If any Service Provider is required to pay any of the foregoing, the applicable Service Recipient shall, or, as applicable, shall cause another member of the Public Company
Group or an Affiliate to, promptly reimburse such Service Provider in accordance with the payment terms set forth in this Agreement. 
  

	7.	STANDARD OF PERFORMANCE 

 Each Service Provider shall perform the Services using at least
the same level of care, quality, timeliness, skill and adherence to applicable industry standards as such Service Provider does in providing similar services to such Service Provider’s respective Affiliates. 

 

	8.	TERMINATION 

 (a) Termination for Convenience. Any specific Hess Service, or all
Hess Services, may be terminated by the General Partner upon 30 days’ prior written Notice to Hess. Any specific Public Company Group Service may be terminated by Hess upon 30 days’ prior written Notice to the General Partner. 

(b) Termination for Default. If any Party is in default under this Agreement, then the non-defaulting Parties may, as their sole
option, (1) terminate this Agreement immediately upon written Notice to the defaulting Party; provided that if either the General Partner or the Partnership is the terminating Party, then such termination shall be effective on the earlier of
(x) 90 days following Hess’ receipt of such written Notice, and (y) the Parties entering into a transition services agreement pursuant to Section 8(f), (2) withhold any payments due to the defaulting Parties under
this Agreement or (3) pursue any other remedy at law or in equity. For purposes of this Section 8(b), a Party shall be in default under this Agreement if: 

(i) such Party materially breaches any provision of this Agreement and such breach is not cured within 15 Business Days after
written Notice thereof (which written Notice shall describe such breach in reasonable detail) is received by such Party; or 

(ii) such Party: (A) files a petition or otherwise commences, authorizes or acquiesces in the commencement of a proceeding
or cause of action 

  
 10 

 
under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar Applicable Law, or has any such petition filed or commenced against it; (B) makes an assignment or any general arrangement for the
benefit of creditors; (C) otherwise becomes bankrupt or insolvent (however evidenced); or (D) has a liquidator, administrator, receiver, trustee, conservator or similar official appointed with respect to it or any substantial portion of
its property or assets. 
 (c) Force Majeure. At any time a Force Majeure preventing performance of any of the Services hereunder
continues for 12 consecutive months or more, any Party shall have the right to terminate its respective obligations under this Agreement with respect to the applicable Service suspended by such Force Majeure. 

(d) Change of Control. At any time, should Hess and its Affiliates collectively cease to hold at least 15% of the issued and
outstanding Equity Interests in Takota GP, then any Party may terminate this Agreement upon written Notice to the other Parties and such termination shall be effective on the earlier of (i) 90 days following the applicable Party’s receipt
of such written Notice, and (ii) the Parties entering into a transition services agreement pursuant to Section 8(f). 
 (e) Effect
of Termination. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement, all rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall terminate; provided, however, that (i) such termination shall not affect or excuse the
performance of any Party for any breach of this Agreement occurring prior to such termination or for payment of any amounts due for Services provided prior to the such termination, and (ii) the following provisions of this Agreement survive the
termination of this Agreement indefinitely: Section 10, Section 14 and Section 15. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement or any Service, each Service Provider shall return to the applicable Service Recipient any
equipment or other property or materials of such Service Recipient (including but not limited to any materials containing Confidential Information) that are in the possession or control of such Service Provider or any of its contractors,
subcontractors or vendors (except to the extent that such materials are required for use in connection with any Services that have not been terminated pursuant to Section 8(a)). 

(f) Transition Services Upon Termination. Should a Notice of termination of this Agreement (in total, and not with respect to any
individual Hess Service or Non-Public Company Group Service) be delivered pursuant to Section 8(b) or Section 8(d) (other than any such termination Notice delivered by Hess pursuant to Section 8(b) due to a Company default
or a MLP GP LP default), then the Parties shall, during the pendency of such termination, use their commercially reasonable efforts to agree upon a transition services agreement. 

 

	9.	RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES 

 This Agreement does not form a partnership or joint venture
between the Parties nor does it make Hess an agent or a legal representative of any member of the Public Company Group. Hess shall not assume or create any obligation, liability, or responsibility, expressed or implied, on behalf of or in the name
of any member of the Public Company Group. 

  
 11 

	10.	INDEMNIFICATION 

 (a) Indemnification by Hess. Hess shall indemnify and hold
harmless the Public Company Group and the officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives of each member of the Public Company Group (collectively, the “Public Company Group Indemnified Parties”) from and against
all Claims, and upon demand by the Public Company Group, shall protect and defend the Public Company Group Indemnified Parties from the same, alleged, asserted or suffered by or arising in favor of any Person, and shall pay any and all judgments or
settlements of any kind or nature (to include interest) as well as court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and any expenses incurred in enforcing this indemnity provision (each such Claim, judgment, settlement, fee or expense, a
“Loss” and collectively, “Losses”) incurred by, imposed upon or rendered against one or more of the Public Company Group Indemnified Parties, whether based on contract, or tort, or pursuant to any
statute, rule or regulation, and regardless of whether the Claims are foreseeable or unforeseeable, all to the extent that such Losses are in respect of or arise from (i) willful and material breaches by Hess of this Agreement or
(ii) Claims by a third party relating to (A) willful and material breaches by Hess of this Agreement or (B) Hess’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with the performance of the Hess Services; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, THAT HESS SHALL NOT BE OBLIGATED TO INDEMNIFY OR HOLD HARMLESS THE PUBLIC COMPANY GROUP INDEMNIFIED PARTIES FROM AND AGAINST ANY LOSSES TO THE EXTENT THEY RESULT FROM THE BREACH OF CONTRACT, GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF ANY
PUBLIC COMPANY GROUP INDEMNIFIED PARTY. 
 (b) Indemnification by the General Partner. The General Partner shall indemnify and hold
harmless Hess and each of its Affiliates, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives (collectively, the “Hess Indemnified Parties”) from and against all Claims, and upon demand by
Hess, shall protect and defend the Hess Indemnified Parties from the same, alleged, asserted or suffered by or arising in favor of any Person, and shall pay any and all Losses incurred by, imposed upon or rendered against one or more of the Hess
Indemnified Parties, whether based on contract, or tort, or pursuant to any statute, rule or regulation, and regardless of whether the Claims are foreseeable or unforeseeable, all to the extent that such Losses are in respect of or arise from
(i) willful and material breaches by the General Partner of this Agreement or (ii) Claims by a third party relating to (A) willful and material breaches by the General Partner of this Agreement or (B) the Public Company
Group’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with the performance of the Public Company Group Services; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE GENERAL PARTNER SHALL NOT BE OBLIGATED TO INDEMNIFY OR HOLD HARMLESS THE HESS INDEMNIFIED
PARTIES FROM AND AGAINST ANY LOSSES TO THE EXTENT THEY RESULT FROM THE BREACH OF CONTRACT, GROSS NEGLIGENCE, OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF ANY HESS INDEMNIFIED PARTY. 

(c) Indemnification Procedure. The indemnified Party agrees that within a reasonable period of time after it becomes aware of facts
giving rise to a claim for indemnification under this Section 10, it will provide Notice thereof in writing to the indemnifying Party, specifying the nature of and specific basis for such Claim. 

(i) The indemnifying Party shall have the right to control all aspects of the defense of (and any counterclaims with respect
to) any Claims brought against the indemnified Party that are covered by the indemnification under this Section 10, including, without limitation, the selection of counsel, determination of whether to appeal any decision of any court and the
settling of any such claim or any matter or any issues relating thereto; provided, however, that no such settlement shall be entered into without the consent of the indemnified Party unless it includes a full release of the indemnified Party
from such Claim. 

  
 12 

 (ii) The indemnified Party agrees to cooperate fully with the indemnifying Party,
with respect to all aspects of the defense of any Claims covered by the indemnification under this Section 10, including, without limitation, the prompt furnishing to the indemnifying Party of any correspondence or other Notice relating
thereto that the indemnified Party may receive, permitting the name of the indemnified Party to be utilized in connection with such defense, the making available to the indemnifying Party of any files, records or other information of the indemnified
Party that the indemnifying Party considers relevant to such defense and the making available to the indemnifying Party of any employees of the indemnified Party; provided, however, that in connection therewith the indemnifying Party agrees
to use reasonable efforts to minimize the impact thereof on the operations of the indemnified Party and further agrees to maintain the confidentiality of all files, records and other information furnished by the indemnified Party pursuant to this
Section 10(c). In no event shall the obligation of the indemnified Party to cooperate with the indemnifying Party as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence be construed as imposing upon the indemnified Party an obligation to hire and
pay for counsel in connection with the defense of any claims covered by the indemnification set forth in this Section 10; provided, however, that the indemnified Party may, at its own option, cost and expense, hire and pay for
counsel in connection with any such defense. The indemnifying Party agrees to keep any such counsel hired by the indemnified Party informed as to the status of any such defense, but the indemnifying Party shall have the right to retain sole control
over such defense. 
 (iii) In determining the amount of any loss, cost, damage or expense for which the indemnified Party is
entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the gross amount of the indemnification will be reduced by (A) any insurance proceeds realized by the indemnified Party, and such correlative insurance benefit shall be net of any incremental
insurance premium that becomes due and payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of such claim and (B) all amounts recovered by the indemnified Party under contractual indemnities from third parties. 

(d) Limitation on Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither Party shall be liable or responsible to
the other Party or such other Party’s Affiliates for any consequential, incidental or punitive damages, or for loss of profits or revenues of any kind (collectively referred to as “Special Damages”), incurred by such
Party or its Affiliates that arise out of or relate to this Agreement, regardless of whether any such Claim arises under or results from contract, tort, or strict liability; provided that the foregoing limitation is not intended to and shall not
affect Special Damages imposed in favor of unaffiliated Persons that are not Parties to this Agreement. 

  
 13 

	11.	FORCE MAJEURE 

 A Service Provider’s obligations under this Agreement may be
temporarily suspended during the occurrence of, and for the entire duration of, a Force Majeure. As soon as possible upon the occurrence of a Force Majeure, such Service Provider shall provide the applicable Service Recipient with written Notice of
the occurrence of such Force Majeure (a “Force Majeure Notice”). Such Service Provider shall identify in such Force Majeure Notice the approximate length of time that it reasonably believes in good faith such Force Majeure
shall continue. During the period of the Force Majeure event, such Service Provider shall be excused from the performance with respect to its obligations related to the provision of the applicable Service(s) hereunder. The applicable Service
Recipient (or its Affiliate, as applicable) shall not be required to pay fees for any affected Service(s) during the Force Majeure. Such Service Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate and to overcome the effects of such event
or circumstances and shall resume performance of its obligations as soon as practicable. 
  

	12.	ASSIGNMENT; BINDING EFFECT 

 No Party may assign this Agreement without the prior written
consent of the other Parties; provided, however, that any Party may subcontract any of the Services provided by such Party hereunder so long as such Services continue to be provided in a manner consistent with past practices and industry
standards and in accordance with Section 7 above. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. 

 

	13.	NOTICE 

 All written notices, requests, demands and other communications required or
permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be considered a “Notice” and shall be deemed sufficient in all respects (a) if given in writing and delivered personally, (b) if sent by overnight courier,

 Any Notice given in accordance herewith shall be deemed to have been given (i) when delivered to the addressee in person,
or by courier, during normal business hours, or on the next Business Day if delivered after business hours, (ii) when received by the addressee via facsimile or electronic mail transmission during normal business hours, or on the next Business
Day if received after business hours, or (iii) upon actual receipt by the addressee after such notice has either been delivered to an overnight courier or deposited in the U.S. Mail, as the case may be. The Parties may change the address,
telephone number, facsimile number, electronic mail address and individuals to which such communications to any Party are to be addressed by giving written notice to the other Parties in the manner provided in this Section 13. 

 

	14.	CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION 

 (a) Obligations. Each Party shall use reasonable
efforts to retain the other Parties’ Confidential Information in confidence and not disclose the same to any third party nor use the same, except as authorized by the disclosing Party in writing or as expressly permitted in this Section
14. Each Party further agrees to take the same care with the other Parties’ Confidential Information as it does with its own, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care. Excepted from these obligations of confidence and non-use
is that information which: 
 (i) is available, or becomes available, to the general public without fault of the receiving Party; 

(ii) was in the possession of the receiving Party on a non-confidential basis prior to receipt of the same from the disclosing Party (it being
understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that this exception shall not apply to information of the Public Company Group that was in the possession of Hess or any of its Affiliates as a result of their ownership or operation of the Public Company
Group Assets prior to the Effective Date); 
 (iii) is obtained by the receiving Party without an obligation of confidence from a third
party who is rightfully in possession of such information and, to the receiving Party’s knowledge, is under no obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing Party; or 

(iv) is independently developed by the receiving Party without reference to or use of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.

  
 15 

 For the purpose of this Section 14, a specific item of Confidential Information shall not be deemed
to be within the foregoing exceptions merely because it is embraced by, or underlies, more general information in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party. 

(b) Required Disclosure. Notwithstanding Section 14(a), if the receiving Party becomes legally compelled to disclose the
Confidential Information by a Governmental Authority or Applicable Law, or is required to disclose by the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange, any of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, the receiving Party shall
promptly advise the disclosing Party of such requirement to disclose Confidential Information as soon as the receiving Party becomes aware that such a requirement to disclose might become effective, in order that, where possible, the disclosing
Party may seek a protective order or such other remedy as the disclosing Party may consider appropriate in the circumstances. The receiving Party shall disclose only that portion of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information that it is
required to disclose and shall cooperate with the disclosing Party in allowing the disclosing Party to obtain such protective order or other relief. 

(c) Return of Information. Upon written request by the disclosing Party, all of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in
whatever form shall be returned to the disclosing Party upon termination of this Agreement or destroyed with destruction certified by the receiving Party, without the receiving Party retaining copies thereof except that one copy of all such
Confidential Information may be retained by a Party’s legal department solely to the extent that such Party is required to keep a copy of such Confidential Information pursuant to Applicable Law and the receiving Party shall be entitled to
retain any Confidential Information in the electronic form or stored on automatic computer back-up archiving systems during the period such back-up or archived materials are retained under such Party’s customary procedures and policies;
provided, however, that any Confidential Information retained by the receiving Party shall be maintained subject to confidentiality pursuant to the terms of this Section 14, and such archived or back-up Confidential Information shall
not be accessed except as required by Applicable Law. 
 (d) Receiving Party Personnel. The receiving Party will limit access to the
Confidential Information of the disclosing Party to those of its employees, attorneys and contractors that have a need to know such information in order for the receiving Party to exercise or perform its rights and obligations under this Agreement
(the “Receiving Party Personnel”). The Receiving Party Personnel who have access to any Confidential Information of the disclosing Party will be made aware of the confidentiality provision of this Agreement, and will be
required to abide by the terms thereof. Any third-party contractors that are given access to Confidential Information of a disclosing Party pursuant to the terms hereof shall be required to sign a written agreement pursuant to which such Receiving
Party Personnel agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, which written agreement will expressly state that it is enforceable against such Receiving Party Personnel by the disclosing Party. 

(e) Survival. The obligation of confidentiality under this Section 14 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a
period of two (2) years. 

  
 16 

	15.	MISCELLANEOUS 

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

(b) Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the schedules attached hereto, constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties
pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings of the Parties in connection therewith. 

(c) Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas without giving effect to its
conflict of laws principles. Each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal court of competent jurisdiction situated in the State of Texas United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, or if
such federal court declines to exercise or does not have jurisdiction, in the district court of Harris County, Texas. The Parties expressly and irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of said courts and irrevocably waive any objection which they may
now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought in such courts, irrevocably waive any claim that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has
been brought in an inconvenient forum and further irrevocably waive the right to object, with respect to such claim, action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court that such court does not have jurisdiction over such Party. The Parties hereby
irrevocably consent to the service of process by registered mail, postage prepaid, or by personal service within or without the State of Texas. Nothing contained herein shall affect the right to serve process in any manner permitted by Applicable
Law. 
 (d) Counterparts; Multiple Originals. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by facsimile or
portable document format (.pdf)), all of which together shall constitute one agreement binding each of the Parties. Each of the Parties may sign any number of copies of this Agreement. Each signed copy shall be deemed to be an original, and all of
them together shall represent one and the same agreement. 
 (e) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement
will be interpreted in such manner as to be valid and effective under Applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance will be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision hereof, and the Parties will negotiate in good faith with a view to substitute for such provision a suitable and
equitable solution in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision. 

  
 17 

 (f) No Third-Party Beneficiaries. It is expressly understood that the provisions of this
Agreement do not impart enforceable rights in anyone who is not a Party or the successor or permitted assignee of a Party. 
 (g) WAIVER
OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDINGS RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY PERFORMANCE OR FAILURE TO PERFORM OF ANY OBLIGATION
HEREUNDER. 
 (h) Schedules. Each of the schedules attached hereto and referred to herein is hereby incorporated in and made a part
of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein. 
 (i) Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and
drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring
any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.
