 CHARGES 

Charges for the shipments provided hereunder by Centurion shall be as set forth in the applicable Tariff(s) (the
“Charges”). Centurion may adjust the Charges effective July 1 of each year, beginning July, 2007, using the methodology in Section 3423(d) of Title 18 of the Code of Federal Regulations and any successor regulation of the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”), or other applicable regulatory body. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Charges will not decrease below the initial Charges. If such FERC adjustment is no longer published. Centurion
may apply a new adjustment that is comparable to the same FERC method of adjustment and may increase the Charges accordingly. In addition to such adjustment, Centurion may adjust the Charges in amounts that would withstand applicable regulatory
scrutiny (each an “Additional Adjustment”). Centurion shall provide Alon no less than sixty (60) days advance written notice of any such Additional Adjustment. 

ARTICLE 6 

DEFICIENCY CHARGE 
 As an inducement to Centurion to provide and/or operate, as applicable, the Project Facilities, without which inducement Centurion would not agree to enter this Agreement, Alon guarantees and covenants,
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the performance of Centurion’s obligations hereunder, that during each Delivery Period it shall, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, tender the applicable Minimum
Delivery Period Volume of Crude Oil at the Origin Point for shipment over the Project Facilities to the Delivery Point and bear a proportionate share (based on volume being shipped) of line fill as set

  
 9 

 
forth in the Tariff If the volume of Crude Oil delivered by Alon at the Origin Point during a Delivery Period is less than the applicable Minimum Delivery Period Volume, Alon agrees to pay
Centurion an amount equal to the Makewhole Volume multiplied by the tariff in effect during such Delivery Period (“Deficiency Charge”), provided that, any such Deficiency Charges shall be assessed and payable on an annual basis. Any
Deficiency Charge paid by Alon to Centurion under this provision shall be treated as advance payments of the Centurion Tariff then in effect for transportation of Crude Oil by Alon from the Origin Point to the Delivery Point for volumes in excess of
the Minimum Delivery Period Volumes for the two Delivery Periods of the Year immediately following the Year for which such Deficiency Charge was assessed (the “Following Year”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, such credit shall only
be applied with respect to such transportation in the Following Year. Any Deficiency Charge amounts that are not credited in accordance with the above shall be retained by Centurion and shall not be refunded to Alon or applied as a credit to payment
for such transportation in any subsequent Delivery Period. If, at the expiration of the Term, Centurion holds any Deficiency Charge amounts that have not been applied as a credit to payment for transportation as provided herein, Centurion shall be
under no obligation to refund such Deficiency Charge amounts to Alon. 
 ARTICLE 7

shall be deemed to be correct as to past measurements, but shall be corrected to record accurately. If any meter upon test proves to be more than two tenths of a percent (0.2%) by volume high or low, adjustment shall be made in accordance with
Centurion’s then existing Measurement Manual, provided such Measurement Manual is consistent with industry standards. 
 8.4 Meter Unavailability. If Centurion’s or its designee’s meter is out of repair or is being tested, or in the event that Centurion’s or its designee’s meter becomes
inoperative or manifestly in error, then the volume of Crude Oil delivered during the period Centurion’s or Centurion’s designee’s meter was inoperative shall be determined upon the basis of the best data available, using one of the
following methods: 

  
 10 

 (a) By correcting the error if the percentage of error is ascertainable by
calibration, or mathematical calculation; or 
 (b) By reference to tank gauges at the Origin Point and/or the
Delivery Point. 
 (c) By determining the volume delivered by reference to deliveries during the preceding period
under similar conditions when the meter was registering accurately. 
 8.5 Determination of Quantity and Quality. The
quantity and quality of Crude Oil tendered by Alon and transported by Centurion hereunder shall be determined in accordance with the applicable Tariff.

Majeure to perform during the period of such Force Majeure; provided, however, the Initial Term shall be extended for the same period of time that the period of Force Majeure persists less the number of Days equal to the result of dividing the
number of Barrels of Crude Oil actually accepted for transportation and delivery by Centurion during said period, if any, by the applicable Daily Minimum Volume (fractions to be rounded upward to the next whole number) (the “Extension
Term”). The Parties expressly agree that Alon’s Minimum Delivery Period Volume obligation during the Extension Term shall be the sum of the applicable Daily Minimum Volume for each Day during the Extension Term. Notwithstanding the
foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, if a Force Majeure Event continues for more than 90 consecutive Days the Party not prevented from performing its obligations due to such event shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by
giving the affected Party 10 Days notice of its intent to terminate. 
 9.2 Excess Offers. If shippers nominate to
Centurion for shipment of crude oil in excess of available capacity on the Project Facilities, the allocation of such crude oil shall be governed by the applicable Tariff, it being understood that no such allocation shall in anyway constitute a
breach of any of Centurion’s covenants or obligations hereunder, In any event of such allocation, the Minimum Delivery Period Volume shall be reduced for the period during which reduction is in effect by the amount of Barrels not deliverable
due to such allocation. 
 9.3 Removal of Crude Oil to Free Capacity. If Alon is unable to have Crude Oil delivered to it
hereunder at the Delivery Point, as a result of Force Majeure or any other cause, Centurion agrees to reasonably cooperate with Alon with respect to Alon’s removal, redirection

or storage of such Crude Oil from the Project Facilities; provided, however, in no case shall Centurion be required (i) to accommodate Crude Oil in excess of the lesser of 43,000 barrels and
the remaining storage capacity available at the Centurion Midland Terminal; and (ii) to accommodate such Crude Oil for more than five (5) days after the commencement of Alon’s inability to accept delivery of all Crude Oil scheduled to
be delivered to it; provided further, that upon the earlier of (a) the volume of Crude Oil to be accommodated exceeding the volume described in (i) above and (b) Alon’s failure to make provisions for such removal, redirection or
storage within the five (5) day period described in (ii) above, Centurion shall have the right, at Alon’s sole cost and expense and for Alon’s account, to remove and sell any such Crude Oil at the price and terms then available
under existing circumstances in order to free capacity on. the Project Facilities. Proceeds from such sale shall be paid to Alon within 10 Days after Centurion’s receipt of the proceeds of such sale.

completion of the Pipeline Facilities, if this Agreement is terminated after the Effective Date due to default, breach or non-performance by Alon, and less than 39,237,500 Barrels of Crude Oil have been shipped from the Origin Point to the Delivery
Point at such time, Alon shall promptly pay Centurion as liquidated damages an amount equal to the sum of the following calculation: (39,237,500—actual number of Barrels of Crude Oil shipped from the Origin Point to the Delivery Point prior to
termination) * $0.099. The Parties agree that the multiplier of $0.099 in the prior sentence will be changed to the surcharge number set forth in the Tariff on its initial filing, which in any event shall not exceed the $0.099 per barrel. The
Parties acknowledge and agree that they have agreed upon and fixed the amount of such liquidated damages because of the difficulty of determining the exact amount of damages that Centurion would sustain in any such event and because otherwise
obtaining an adequate remedy would be difficult or unduly burdensome. The liquidated damages are not a penalty and shall be paid by Alon regardless of the amount of losses and damages that Centurion actually sustains and such liquidated damages
shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other damages to which Centurion is entitled under this Agreement or otherwise at law or in equity.

 ARTICLE 11 
 DEFAULT 
 In addition to any other provisions of this Agreement relative to
default and to any such provisions set forth in any applicable Tariff(s), it is understood and agreed that if either Party-(the “Defaulting Party”) hereto shall fail to materially perform any of the covenants or obligations imposed
upon it under and by virtue of this Agreement, then the other Party (the “Non-Defaulting Party”) hereto, may, at its option, terminate this Agreement by proceeding as follows: the Non-Defaulting Party shall provide written notice to
the Defaulting Party stating specifically the cause for terminating this Agreement and declaring it to be the intention of the Non-Defaulting Party to terminate the same; whereupon the Defaulting Party shall have 10 Days for non-payment defaults,
but only live Business Days for payment defaults, after its receipt of the aforesaid termination notice in which to remedy or remove the cause or causes stated in the notice for terminating the Agreement (the “Cure Period”), and, if
within the applicable Cure Period the Defaulting Party does so remedy or remove said cause or causes, then such termination notice shall be withdrawn and this Agreement shall continue in fall force and effect. If the Defaulting Party does not so
remedy or remove the cause or causes within the Cure Period, then, at the option of the Non-Defaulting Party, this Agreement shall become null and void from and after the expiration of said Cure Period. If a non-payment default cannot be
substantially cured within the Cure Period, but the Defaulting Party has commenced to remedy the cause(s) of default within the Cure Period and continues diligently pursuing such remedy after expiration of the Cure Period, then the Non-Defaulting
Party may not terminate this Agreement until the earlier of: (a) 60 Days after the date the Defaulting Party received the termination notice, or (b) any time that the Defaulting Party stops diligently pursuing a remedy of the default; with
the understanding that if the Defaulting Party remedies or removes the cause or causes stated in the termination notice prior to the times set forth in subclauses (a) and (b) above, then the termination notice shall be withdrawn and this
Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. Except as otherwise provided heroin, any termination of this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of this Article 11 shall be without prejudice to the right of either Party to collect any amounts
then due and owing to it under the provisions of this Agreement and without waiver of or prejudice to any remedy (legal, equitable or otherwise) to which the Non-Defaulting Party may be entitled for violation, default or breach of this Agreement.

arbitration. Any dispute as to the qualifications of an arbitrator appointed by one of the Parties shall be resolved in accordance with the AAA’s Expedited Procedures. The Party-appointed arbitrators shall in turn appoint a presiding arbitrator
of the tribunal within 15 Days following the appointment of both Party-appointed arbitrators. If the Party-appointed arbitrators cannot reach agreement on a presiding arbitrator of the tribunal and/or one Party fails or refuses to appoint its
Party-appointed arbitrator within the prescribed period, the appointing authority for the presiding arbitrator and/or such Party-appointed arbitrator shall be the AAA, who, in each case, shall appoint an independent arbitrator meeting the
requirements set forth above. If an arbitrator should die, withdraw or otherwise become incapable of serving, or refuse to serve, a successor arbitrator shall be selected and appointed in the same manner as the original arbitrator. 

(c) Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing by the Parties: 

(i) The arbitration proceedings shall be held in Houston, Texas; 

(ii) The arbitrators shall be and remain at all times wholly independent and impartial; 

  
 15 

 (iii) The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted under the Commercial
Arbitration Rules of the AAA, as amended from time to time;

the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA shall be determined by the Arbitration Act and any other laws of the State of Texas, other than those laws which would refer the matter to the laws of another jurisdiction; 

(v) All decisions and awards by the arbitration tribunal shall be made by majority vote; 

(vi) The decision of a majority of the arbitrator’s shall be reduced to writing; Shall be final and binding without
the right of appeal; and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy regarding any claims, counterclaims, issues or accountings presented to the arbitrators; any damage awards by the arbitrators shall be promptly paid free of any deduction or offset; and
any costs or fees incident to enforcing the award shall to the maximum extent permitted by law be charged against the Party resisting such enforcement; 
 (vii) Consequential, indirect, special, exemplary, punitive or other similar damages shall not be allowed except those payable to third parties for which liability is allocated between the Parties by the
arbitration award; 
 (viii) Any award of damages shall include interest from the date of any breach or violation
of this Agreement, as determined by the arbitration award, and from the date of the award until paid in full, at the Agreed Rate in effect at the end of the first Business Day of each Month during which such amount was owed; and 

(ix) Judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the Party or the assets of the Party
owing the judgment, or application may be made to such court for a judicial acceptance of the award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be. 
 14.2 The arbitration shall proceed in the absence of a Party who, after due notice, fails to answer or appear; provided that, an award shall not be made solely on the default of a Party, but the
arbitrators shall require the Party who is present to submit such evidence as the arbitrators may determine is reasonably required to make an award.

Metering Station and the Big Spring Refinery. 
  

	 	•	 	 The new Alon 12” piping connecting the Centurion 8” pipeline and the Centurion Custody transfer metering station will be API 5L X52
..250” standard wall pipe, 100% of the welds will be radiographic tested. 

  

	 	•	 	 The 12” Alon pipeline between Roberts Junction and the Big Spring Refinery will require a minimum MAOP of 1100 PSIG. The minimum test pressure, if
required, will be 1375 PSIG (1.25 x MAOP) for a duration of 8 hours. All pipe segments located below grade will be buried with a minimum of 36” of cover and coated with 12-14 mils of FBE. All girth welds will be sandblasted to near white and
coated with a 2-part epoxy system (Protal 7200 or equivalent). Alon will install a pressure relief device designed by Centurion up stream of the metering station. 

 

	 	•	 	 Horizontal directional drill of 1-20 will be required due to the substantial elevation change between the proposed Alon meter station and the south
side of the Interstate. Horizontal directional drill 11th
Place Extension (county road crossing) and Beals Creek will be required, Isolation valves will be installed on each side of Beals Creek. 

  

	 	•	 	 A soil boring is recommended on both sides of 1-20 to verify/confirm what type of substrata exists. This data is required for engineering design of the
horizontal directional drill and minimize the probability of a hydraulic fracture. 

  

	 	•	 	 12” Pig launcher will be installed at the Roberts Junction and 12” pig tap will be installed at the Centurion Metering Station.

 APPLICATION OF TABLE 2 - VOLUME INCENTIVE RATES: 

 

	1)	The term “Daily Volume” is defined as volume from any one Shipper received at the reception point per day averaged over the Calendar Month.

  

	2)	Volume Incentive Rates set forth in this tariff will apply to shipments of any shipper agreeing in writing to deliver a minimum of 4,197,500 barrels per Contract Year
based on an average rate of 11,500 barrels per day to Big Spring, Texas from Midland, Texas during the Contract Period. “Contract Period” is defined as Fifteen (15) years beginning with the effective date specified in the written
agreement and ending the last day of the Fifteen (15) year period. Carrier shall invoice Shipper monthly at each of the applicable, then-current Volume Incentive Rate(s) reflected on this tariff, including any current supplements thereto and
successive issues thereof. “Contract Year” is defined to mean the twelve-month period beginning on the effective date of the Contract Period and each successive twelve-month period thereafter as agreed upon in writing by Carrier and such
affected Shipper. 

  

	3)	The “Minimum Annual Throughput Obligation” shall be 4,197,500 barrels. If Shipper fails to satisfy the Minimum Annual Throughput Obligation for any Contract
Year during the Contract Period, then Shipper shall pay to Carrier a deficiency payment (the “Deficiency Payment”) which is equal to the difference between (x) the total amount payable by Shipper to Carrier for shipments of Crude
Petroleum on the Pipelines from Midland, Texas to Big Spring. Texas during such Contract Year and (y) the gross revenue (calculated by multiplying the Minimum Annual Throughput Obligation by the then-current Volume Incentive Rate set fourth in
this tariff) that would have been payable by Shipper to Carrier during such Contract Year had Shipper delivered the Minimum Annual Throughput Obligation to Big Spring, Texas from Midland, Texas during such Contract Year within ten(10) days after
both (a) the completion of any Crude Petroleum throughput reconciliation process for such Contract Year that has been agreed upon in writing by and between Carrier and such Shipper, and (b) the receipt of an invoice from Carrier for same.
Any Deficiency Payments made by Shipper to Carrier under this provision shall be treated as advance payments of the Carrier tariff then in effect for transportation of Crude Petroleum by Shipper from the point of origin listed herein to the
reception point herein for volumes in excess of the Minimum Annual throughput Obligation for the Contract Year following the contract Year for which such Deficiency Payment was assessed (the “Following Contract Year”). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, such credit shall be applied only with respect to such transportation in the Following Contract Year. Any Deficiency Payment amounts that are not credited in accordance with the above shall be retained by Carrier and shall not be refunded
to Shipper or applied as a credit to payment for such transportation in any subsequent Contract Year. If, at the expiration of the Contract Period, Carrier holds any Deficiency Payment amount that have not been applied as a credit to payment for
transportation as provided herein, Carrier shall be under no obligation to refund such Deficiency Payment amount to Shipper. 

  

	4)	A surcharge of nine and nine tenths cents(9.9¢) per barrel will be charged on the first 39,237,500 barrels on all Shippers’ aggregate movements on this
tariff. 

 Centurion Pipeline L.P. 
  

	5)	Carrier during the Contract Period may adjust the Volume Incentive Rates contained in this tariff, including any current supplements thereto and successive issues
thereof, yearly at the annual FERC adjustment for crude oil pipelines which is set forth in Title 18, Code of Federal Regulations, Section 342.3, as such regulation may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time. Said
adjustment will be effective each July 1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the charges will not decrease below the initial charges. If such FERC adjustment is no longer published, Carrier may apply a new adjustment that is comparable to the same
FERC method of adjustment and may increase the charges accordingly. In addition to such adjustment, Carrier may adjust the charges in amounts that would withstand applicable regulatory scrutiny (each and “Additional Adjustment”). Carrier
shall provide Shippers no less than sixty (60) days advance written notice of any such Additional Adjustment. 

  

	6)	Effective Date of Service. Service under this T.R.R.C. Tariff No. 11 shall be available to Shippers only after (1) the facilities necessary to provide the
service hereunder have been constructed and placed in service and (2) Carrier receives an aggregate volume commitment from all Shippers of at least 11,500 barrels per day for 15 years. Carrier shall be entitled to withdraw this tariff at
anytime before the conditions listed above occur. 

  

	7)	Rates named in this tariff are applicable only to Crude Petroleum, delivered to Carrier by [pipeline] at point of origin and are for trunk line transportation.
Terminating service will be performed under this tariff only for the receipt of Shipper’s Tender.

SECTION II 

RULES AND REGULATIONS 

For purpose of this T.R.R.C. Tariff No. 11, The following definitions are added to Paragraph 1 of Section II of Centurion Pipeline L.P.’s
T.R.R.C. No. 1. 
  

	1.	DEFINITIONS: 

 “Base
Period,” as used herein, is a period of 12 months beginning 13 months prior to the month of allocation and excluding the month preceding the month of allocation. 
 “Commitment Shipper,” as used herein, is any Shipper taking service under Carrier’s Incentive Rate Schedule, T.R.R.C. Tariff No. 11. 

“Regular Shipper,” as used herein, is any Shipper who is not a Commitment Shipper having a record of movements in the line
segment being prorated, during the base period. 
 “New Shipper,” as used herein, is a Shipper who is not a Commitment
Shipper or Regular Shipper. 
 For purposes of this T.R.R.C. Tariff No. 11, the following language shall replace Paragraph 16 of Section II
of Centurion Pipeline L.P.’s T.R.R.C. No. 1. 
  

	16.	APPORTIONMENT WHEN NOMINATIONS ARE IN EXCESS OF FACILITIES 

  

	 	A.	If Crude Petroleum is nominated to Carrier for transportation in excess of the amount that can be immediately transported on a line segment, Carrier shall apportion
capacity among all Shippers as provided herein. Carrier will not recognize for apportionment purposes any Nomination by a Shipper which exceeds Carrier’s pipeline capacity. 

 

	 	B.	Space in each segment will be allocated among “Commitment Shippers”, “Regular Shippers”, and any “New Shippers” as follows:

  

	 	(1)	Commitment Shipper Allocation. If the total volume nominated by Commitment Shippers on a line segment is less than or equal to the available capacity on that
segment, then Commitment Shippers shall receive their nominated volumes. Otherwise, each Commitment Shipper shall receive a prorated share of their nominated volumes equal to (a) the volume nominated by that Commitment Shipper multiplied by
(b) the ratio of the line segment capacity divided by the total volumes nominated by Commitment Shippers. 

  

	 	(2)	New Shipper Initial Allocation. If capacity remains after the Commitment Shipper Allocation and the total nominated volume from New Shippers is less than or
equal to 10% of that remaining capacity, then New Shippers shall receive their nominated volumes. Otherwise, 10% of the remaining capacity shall be allocated to New Shippers in proportion to their nominated volumes. 

 

	 	(3)	Regular Shipper Allocation. If the total volume nominated by Regular Shippers is less than or equal to that capacity remaining after the New Shipper Initial
Allocation, then Regular Shippers shall receive their nominated volumes. Otherwise, the capacity remaining after the New Shipper Initial Allocation shall be allocated among the Regular Shippers in proportion to their nominated volumes.

	 	(4)	New Shipper Supplemental Allocation. Any capacity remaining after the Regular Shipper allocation shall be allocated to New Shippers in proportion to their
nominated volumes. The total allocation to New Shippers shall be the sum of the New Shipper Initial Allocation and the New Shipper Supplemental Allocation. 

 

	 	C.	In no event will any portion of allocated capacity to a New Shipper be used in such a manner that will increase the allocated capacity of another Shipper beyond the
allocated capacity that Shipper is entitled to under the provisions stated in this item. Carrier may require written assurances from responsible officials of Shippers regarding use of allocated capacity stating that this requirement has not been
violated. In the event any New Shipper shall, by any device, scheme or arrangement whatsoever, make its allocated capacity available to another Shipper, or in the event any Shipper shall receive and use any allocated capacity from a New Shipper, in
the month following discovery of such violation, the allocated capacity of New Shipper will be reduced to the extent of the excess capacity made available and the allocated capacity of a Shipper will be reduced to the extent of excess capacity used.

  

	 	D.	No Nominations shall be considered beyond the amount that the nominating party has readily accessible for shipment. If a Shipper is unable to lender Crude Petroleum
equal to the space allocated to it, Carrier will reduce that Shipper’s volumes for the succeeding month by the amount of allocated throughput not utilized during the preceding month if apportionment is necessary. 

For purposes of this T.R.R.C. Tarrif No.11, the following language shall be added as subparagraph C to Paragraph 20 of Section II of Centurion Pipeline
L.P.’s T.R.R.C. No.1. 
 20. Measurement, Testing, Volumes Corrections and Deductions 

C. Actual losses or gains in Crude Petroleum (i.e., differences between the amount received by Carrier and the amount delivered by
Carrier) on nominations from the origin point (Midland Tank Farm delivery meter) to the point reception point (Alon Refinery receipt meter) will be prorated among the Shippers based on volume shipped during the month.

 ARTICLE 6 
 MINIMUM DELIVERY PERIOD VOLUME 

AND DEFICIENCY CHARGE 
 6.1 Minimum Delivery Period Volume. As an inducement to Centurion to provide and/or operate, as applicable, the Project Facilities, without which inducement Centurion would not agree to enter this
Agreement, Alon guarantees and covenants, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the performance of Centurion’s obligations hereunder, that during each Delivery Period it shall, in accordance with the provisions of this

in the two Delivery Periods of the immediately following Year; provided Alon may not apply an advance tariff payment to such excess volumes as provided in Section 6.2. 

6.4 Interim Delivery Period. For the Delivery Period during which this Amendment is executed (the “Interim
Period”), the Minimum Delivery Period Volume shall be calculated on a pro rata basis utilizing (i) the Minimum Delivery Period Volume in effect prior the execution of this Amendment for the portion of the Interim Period occurring prior
to the Amendment Date and (ii) the Minimum Delivery Period Volume in effect upon execution of this Amendment for the portion of the Interim Period occurring after the Amendment Date.
