 ARTICLE V 
 GYPSUM STACK CLOSURE 
  

	5.1	Mobil’s Liability. 

  

	 	(a)	Mobil assumes all liability for the Closure of the Existing Gypsum Stacks and agrees to pay for all those costs arising out of or which are related to the Closure of
the Existing Gypsum Stacks at the Pasadena Facility, based upon the assumption that the Pasadena Facility will continue to be operated in accordance with those standards and practices upon which it is being operated on the Closing Date and provided
such costs are necessary to meet the requirements of those Laws, regulations and permits applicable at Closure, as determined by Ardaman & Associates, Inc. or such other mutually acceptable independent third party expert in gypsum stack
closures selected and retained by the Parties. Mobil’s liability for the Closure of the Existing Gypsum Stacks shall survive the Closing of the Transactions and shall not be subject to the provisions of Article XIV hereof, including, without
limitation, the minimum and maximum dollar limitations set forth therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mobil shall have no liability for costs which are the result of the modification of the operation of the Pasadena Facility or the
reconfiguration of the Existing Gypsum Stacks by Buyer after the Closing Date. Mobil assumes the risk of any additional costs of Closure arising from changes in regulatory or legal requirements relating to Closure of the Existing Gypsum Stacks which
may arise after the Closing Date. 

  

	 	(b)	The Parties agree that the use of imported phosphate rock from Togo, Morocco or Kola (the “Approved Imported Rock”) in place of or in addition to
phosphate rock from Florida shall not constitute a modification of the operation of the Pasadena Facility or the Existing Gypsum Stacks; provided, however, that if Buyer uses any imported phosphate rock other than the Approved Imported
Rock in place of or in addition to phosphate rock from Florida any material additional costs related to the Closure of the Existing Gypsum Stacks resulting directly or indirectly from the use of such imported rock shall be borne solely by Buyer).

  
 26 

	 	(c)	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 10.4, 14.1, 14.3 and 14.4, Mobil’s liability under this
Section 5.1 is not limited by the timing of the Closure and shall survive the Closing of the Transactions indefinitely until such time as Closure shall have occurred; however, Buyer shall notify Mobil in writing not less than twelve
(12) months prior to Buyer’s intention to cease operations at the Pasadena Facility. The Parties agree that, to the extent Buyer shall not have ceased operations at the Pasadena Facility, Mobil may not initiate or prosecute Closure without
Buyer’s consent unless such Closure shall be required by applicable Law. 

  

	 	(d)	If Mobil must under applicable Law close gypsum stack 4 earlier than the other Existing Gypsum Stacks, Buyer will, upon Mobil’s request and at Mobil’s
expense, make every reasonable effort to incorporate the water from stack 4 into the existing water balance. In the event the water from stack 4 cannot be incorporated into the existing water balance and must be treated separately, such separate
treatment will be the sole responsibility of Mobil. 

  

	 	(e)	If Buyer develops a new gypsum stack, Mobil will have no responsibility for Closure of such new stack. If the treatment of process water involves treating water from
both the Existing Gypsum Stacks and any such new stack, Buyer will share the cost of treating all the water based on the relative physical volumes of the stacks involved or such other method as the parties may mutually agree.

  
 27 

	5.2	Buyer’s Compliance. 

  

	 	(a)	In consideration of Mobil retaining liability for Closure of the Existing Gypsum Stacks, Buyer agrees to maintain the condition of the Existing Gypsum Stacks, including
the process water within and on top of the Existing Gypsum Stacks, to Mobil standards as the same are set forth on Schedule 5.2(a) attached hereto (the “Mobil Standards”) and to allow Mobil and its agents reasonable access to the
Pasadena Facility in accordance with the Agreement Regarding Security. 

  

	 	(b)	Buyer may not modify the footprint or the operation of the Existing Gypsum Stacks unless such modification may be made in compliance with the requirements of applicable
Law and permits and the Mobil Standards and provided Mobil gives its prior written consent and continues to have such rights of audit and inspection as described herein. Buyer shall be responsible for any additional costs of Closure resulting from
any modifications to the footprint or operation of the Existing Gypsum Stacks, whether or not the modifications are in compliance with this Section. 

  

	 	(c)	Buyer agrees to cooperate fully with Mobil in providing an appropriate site within the Real Property for a new water treatment plant, which will be constructed at
Mobil’s cost. Mobil is responsible for identifying a site for the sludge resulting from water treatment, and Buyer agrees to assist Mobil in this regard but will not be under an obligation to provide a site. 

 

	 	(d)	Buyer may dispose on, in, or under Existing Gypsum Stack 1 that material generated from normal maintenance and operation activities of the Pasadena Facility, as
described in the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission Notice of Registration Industrial and Hazardous Waste, dated May 30, 1998 and set forth in Schedule 1.48. Buyer is prohibited from disposing on, in or under any of the Existing
Gypsum Stacks any material generated from remediation or demolition activities. Only phosphogypsum byproduct and wastewaters generated from the phosphoric acid manufacturing process may be deposited on Existing Gypsum Stacks 2, 3 and 4. Buyer shall
be responsible for any additional costs of Closure that may result from its failure to comply with this Section 5.2. 

  
 28 

	 	(e)	Buyer agrees to allow Mobil to continue to store Mobil generated naturally occurring radioactive material which was generated by Mobil at the Pasadena Facility on or
before the Closing Date (“Mobil’s NORM”) in the staging area located on Existing Gypsum Stack 1. Buyer agrees to maintain the proper storage of Mobil’s NORM at the staging area and Mobil assumes all liability for proper
disposal of Mobil’s NORM. Buyer generated naturally occurring radioactive material (“Buyer’s NORM”) may also be stored in a staging area on Existing Gypsum Stack 1 but must be removed prior to commencement of the Closure
of Existing Gypsum Stack 1. Buyer assumes all liability for proper storage and subsequent disposal of Buyer’s NORM. Buyer must not commingle Buyer’s NORM with Mobil’s NORM. To the extent that commingling does occur to make
Mobil’s NORM and Buyer’s NORM indistinguishable (“Combined NORM”), Buyer assumes all liability for the proper storage and subsequent disposal of the Combined NORM and will indemnify and defend Mobil for any Claims that may
arise in connection with the Combined NORM. 

  

	5.3	Dispute Resolution. In the event of a dispute between Mobil and Buyer arising out of the subject matter of this Article V, each Party shall have the right to
submit the matter to arbitration by providing written notice (the “Notice”) to the other Party advising of its intent to institute arbitration proceedings. Within ten (10) days of such Notice, the parties shall each choose one
arbitrator, and within five (5) days thereafter, the two arbitrators so chosen shall appoint a third arbitrator. All arbitrators selected and appointed under this Section 5.3 shall be environmental professionals knowledgeable of the
chemical fertilizer industry and gypsum stack issues. Unless otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties, no arbitrator selected and appointed hereunder shall have previously been in the employ of Mobil or Buyer or any Affiliate of either Party. The
panel of arbitrators shall decide the issues submitted to them within forty-five (45) days of the Notice. The decision of any two (2) arbitrators shall be conclusive. Each Party shall be solely responsible for the expense of the arbitrator
selected by such Party, and the expense of the third arbitrator and all other deposits and costs incurred in conducting the arbitration (other than fees of counsel or other advisors) shall be borne equally by the Parties. Each Party shall be solely
responsible for its own attorneys’ fees, or other fees for professional services rendered to such Party in connection with such arbitration.

without charge, reasonable access to Buyer Employees and data of the Pasadena Facility and to the Real Property, including the right to conduct environmental or other tests thereon and to take samples therefrom. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in Section 14.4, Mobil shall have the exclusive obligation to manage and control the handling of, to assume the defense of, and to settle or otherwise compromise claims relating to Excluded Liabilities, subject, in the case
of Excluded Environmental Liabilities, Wetlands Liabilities and the Crye Litigation, to the consent of Buyer (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed) to the extent the resolution of any such claim would have a Material Adverse
Effect.

do not (A) render title to the Real Property unmarketable or uninsurable, (B) show any encroachments of improvements over easement or right-of-way areas or over the boundary of the Real Property which individually or in the aggregate would
have a Material Adverse Effect, or (C) have a Material Adverse Effect; and 

  

	 	(iv)	any zoning, building, other restrictions imposed by an operating permit, or other agreement with regulatory agencies, Governmental Authorizations and other similar
restrictions, which individually or in the aggregate would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

government or costs incurred by such government entity in response to the release or threatened release of any substance into the environment. 

  
 42 

	 	(i)	Certain Easements. To the best of Mobil’s Knowledge, the instruments described on Schedule 7.14(i) do not have a Material Adverse Effect.

  

	 	(j)	Easements Not Located. To the best of Mobil’s Knowledge, Mobil has delivered to Buyer true and complete copies of each of the instruments described on
Schedule 7.14(j), and such instruments have not been modified or amended except as set forth on said Schedule 7.14(j). 

  

	 	(k)	No Default of Covenants. To the best of Mobil’s Knowledge, no default exists nor has any event occurred that, with the giving of notice or the passage of
time, or both, would constitute a default under the covenants contained in that certain deed dated April 27, 1951 by Beck Cattle & Land Company to Mathieson Chemical Corporation. 

7.15 Governmental Authorizations. Schedule 1.48 hereto sets forth a true and accurate listing of all Governmental Authorizations, all of which are
in full force and effect as of the Closing Date. Other than the Governmental Authorizations listed on Schedule 1.48, to the best of Mobil’s Knowledge, there are no permits, licenses, approvals, variances or authorizations necessary in order to
fully and completely use, operate, maintain and manage the Real Property in the manner in which such Real Property has been used, operated and maintained. To the best of Mobil’s Knowledge, Schedule 1.48 indicates which Governmental
Authorizations are assignable and transferable to Buyer. Except as set forth on Schedule 1.48, to the best of Mobil’s Knowledge no application by Mobil for a Governmental Authorization has been denied or withdrawn nor is any application
therefor pending. 

  
 43 

	7.16	Condition of Transferred Assets/Disclaimer of Warranties. 

  

	 	(a)	The Transferred Assets shall be operational on the Closing Date and are being conveyed on an “as is-where is” basis (except with respect to the environmental
condition of the Transferred Assets). There are no oral agreements, warranties or representations, collateral to or affecting the Transferred Assets by Mobil, any agent of Mobil or any third party. Mobil is not liable or bound in any manner by any
verbal or written statements, representations, or information pertaining to the Transferred Assets made by any broker, agent, employee, servant or other Person, unless the same are specifically set forth herein. 

 

	 	(b)	EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED IN THIS ARTICLE VII AND IN ARTICLES V, X AND XII, NEITHER MOBIL NOR ANY OTHER PERSON MAKES ANY WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS OF ANY
KIND OR CHARACTER, EXPRESS, STATUTORY, OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE TRANSFERRED ASSETS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS AS TO MATTERS OF TITLE, ZONING, TAX CONSEQUENCES, PHYSICAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS,
AVAILABILITY OF ACCESS, INGRESS OR EGRESS, OPERATING HISTORY OR PROJECTIONS, VALUATION, GOVERNMENTAL APPROVALS, GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS OR ANY OTHER MATTER OR THING RELATING TO OR AFFECTING THE TRANSFERRED ASSETS INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION:
(I) THE VALUE, CONDITION, MERCHANTABILITY, MARKETABILITY, PROFITABILITY, SUITABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE OF THE REAL PROPERTY, APPURTENANCES, EQUIPMENT AND STRUCTURES THEREON, (II) THE MANNER OR QUALITY OF THE
CONSTRUCTION OR MATERIALS INCORPORATED INTO ANY OF THE PROPERTY, STRUCTURES, APPURTENANCES OR EQUIPMENT, (III) THE MANNER, QUALITY, STATE OF REPAIR OR LACK OF REPAIR OF THE TRANSFERRED ASSETS, ANY APPURTENANCES THERETO, EQUIPMENT OR STRUCTURES
THEREON, AND (IV) THE PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS. 

  

	7.17	No Other Representations or Warranties. Except for the representations and warranties contained in this Article VII, neither Mobil nor any other Person makes any
other express or implied representation or warranty on behalf of Mobil. 

  

	7.18	No Omissions. No representation or warranty of Mobil in this Agreement, any Schedule or Exhibit attached hereto, or any certificate delivered by Mobil at Closing
pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, contains or will contain any untrue statement of a material fact nor do such representations and warranties taken as a whole omit any matter necessary in order to make any material statement
contained herein or therein not misleading. Mobil will not voluntarily take any action which would make any of its representations or warranties herein untrue in any respect on and as of the Closing Date. 

  
 44 

 ARTICLE VIII 
 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF BUYER 
 Buyer represents and warrants to Mobil as
follows: 
  

	8.1	Organization and Qualification. Buyer is a limited partnership duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
formation and has all requisite partnership power and authority to purchase, own, lease and operate the Transferred Assets. 

  

	8.2	Authorization. Buyer has full partnership power and authority to execute and deliver the Documents and to perform its obligations thereunder. The execution,

notice or filing is required to be given by Buyer to, or made by Buyer with, any federal, state, local or other governmental authority or other Person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by Buyer of this Agreement, other than
in all cases where the failure to obtain such consent, approval, waiver or authorization, or to give or make such notice or filing, would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect or materially impair or delay the ability
of Buyer to effect the Closing. 

  
 45 

	8.4	Non-Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by Buyer of the Documents and consummation of the Transactions contemplated thereby, does not and will
not (i) violate any provision of the certificate of limited partnership or limited partnership agreement of Buyer; or (ii) violate or result in a breach of or constitute a default under any law, rule, regulation, judgment, injunction,
order, decree or other restriction of any court or governmental authority to which Buyer is subject, including any Governmental Authorization, other than any conflict, breach, termination, default, cancellation, acceleration, loss, or violation
which, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse Effect or materially impair or delay the ability of Buyer to perform its obligations hereunder. 

 

	8.5	Binding Effect. When executed, the Documents will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of Buyer, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject
to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles. 

 

	8.6	Brokers’ or Finders’ Fees. There is no investment banker, broker, finder or other intermediary which has been retained by or is authorized to act on
behalf of Buyer who might be entitled to any fee or commission from Buyer in connection with the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 

  

	8.7	Financial Capability. Buyer will have on the Closing Date sufficient funds: (i) to effect the Closing and all other Transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, and (ii) to operate the Pasadena Facility in a manner substantially similar to Mobil’s operation of the Pasadena Facility as of the Closing Date. 

  
 46 

	8.8	Condition of Transferred Assets/Reliance. 

  

	 	(a)	Buyer agrees that, with respect to the Transferred Assets, Buyer has not relied upon and will not rely upon, either directly or indirectly, any representation or
warranty of Mobil or any agent of Mobil unless the specific terms of the warranty or representation are set forth in this Agreement. Buyer acknowledges that the Parties have conducted and documented an inspection of the Pasadena Facility’s
Ammonia Tank for the purpose of assuring full disclosure regarding the condition of the Ammonia Tank upon conveyance to Buyer. Buyer has reviewed all documentation provided to it by Mobil regarding the Ammonia Tank and represents and warrants that
Buyer is competent and willing to take all measures reasonably necessary to maintain the Ammonia Tank in a safe condition. 

  

	 	(b)	Buyer acknowledges that the Transferred Assets are being conveyed hereunder “as is-where is,” (as more specifically represented in Section 7.16(a)) with
any and all faults and that there are no oral agreements, warranties or representations, collateral to or affecting the Transferred Assets by Mobil, any agent of Mobil or any third party. Buyer acknowledges that Mobil is not liable or bound in any
manner by any verbal or written statements, representations, or information pertaining to the assets made by any broker, agent, employee, servant or other Person, unless the same are specifically set forth herein in writing.

  

	 	(c)	Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, Buyer releases Mobil from any obligation with regard to the condition of any Transferred Asset subsequent to the
Closing Date. 

  

	 	(d)	The terms and conditions of this Section 8.8 shall expressly survive the Closing and not merge into any deed, contract or bill of sale issued in connection
herewith. 

  

	8.9	No Other Representations or Warranties. Except for the representations and warranties contained in this Article VIII and in Section 12.1, neither Buyer nor
any other Person makes any other express or implied representation or warranty on behalf of Buyer. 

  
 47 

 ARTICLE IX 
 EMPLOYMENT MATTERS 
  

	9.1	Post-Closing Obligations to Certain Employees. 

  

	 	(a)	Buyer shall offer employment on an “at-will basis” effective as of the Closing Date to all Employees immediately prior to the Closing Date (said number of
Employees to be consistent with Mobil’s operating plans); provided, however, that any Inactive Employee who is absent from active service on the Closing Date by reason of such Inactive Employee’s entitlement to short-term
disability, long-term disability or workers’ compensation benefits, and who is medically certified to return to work within six (6) months of the Closing Date, (unless otherwise provided in the Union Contract), shall be offered for a
reasonable time thereafter employment by Buyer effective upon such Inactive Employee’s availability to return to active service, provided, however, that Buyer shall not be required to offer employment to any such Inactive Employee
unless Buyer shall have determined that a business need for such Inactive Employee’s services exists at the Pasadena Facility. Each offer of employment to an Employee shall be at the same compensation rate, position and place of employment held
by such Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date and upon such other terms and conditions of employment as may be determined by Buyer in its sole discretion, provided, however, that the offer to each Employee shall be on terms
and conditions not materially less favorable to such Employee than the terms and conditions applicable immediately prior to the Closing Date. From the Closing Date through the first anniversary thereof, Buyer shall provide Employees who accept
employment with Buyer (“Buyer Employees”) a commensurate employee benefits program as to which contributions shall be substantially equal in the aggregate to the amounts contributed by Mobil under the Mobil Benefits Plan maintained
for Employees (including the enhancements to the Mobil Benefits Plan announced during the fourth quarter of 1997) and which became effective on or before the Closing Date. Mobil acknowledges that the determination of a “commensurate employee
benefits program” shall take into consideration the costs associated with Buyer and its Affiliates maintaining an employee benefits program that is substantially consistent for all of Buyer’s and its Affiliates’ employees.

  
 48 

	 	(b)	Buyer shall grant all Buyer Employees credit for purposes of eligibility and vesting (but with appropriate offsets so as not to duplicate benefits) under Buyer’s
employee benefit plans (including vacation) for their service with Mobil prior to the Closing Date, to the same extent such service is taken into account under the Mobil Benefit Plans as of the Closing Date. 

 

	 	(c)	Buyer shall provide a medical plan the benefits of which in the aggregate are substantially similar to the medical plan in effect as of the Closing Date so as to ensure
immediate coverage of all Buyer Employees, subject to the provisions of Section 9.1(a). Such medical plan shall, if applicable, grant credit for amounts paid by Buyer Employees toward deductibles during the applicable plan year, including the
Closing Date, and shall not exclude from coverage services and supplies related to an illness or injury covered under the Mobil medical plan solely because such illness or injury would otherwise be deemed a pre-existing condition under Buyer’s
medical plan. Buyer shall establish and maintain from the Closing Date through the first anniversary of the Closing Date, a retiree life insurance plan for Buyer Employees substantially similar to the retiree life insurance plans of Mobil applicable
to Employees and in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date. A true, correct and complete list of all Employees who are currently eligible for retiree life insurance benefits if their employment were terminated as of the date hereof, and their
current ages and years of service, is set forth on Schedule 7.10(b). 

  

	 	(d)	With respect to Buyer Employees who (i) meet the requirements for retiree medical coverage under any Mobil Benefits Plan (a “Mobil Retiree Medical
Plan”) on the Closing Date or (ii) would have met such requirements within 12 months of the Closing Date had their employment with Mobil continued during such 12-month period and who subsequently meet such requirements (determined by
crediting service with Buyer, and age attained during such service, as service with Mobil), Mobil agrees to, at its own expense, offer such Buyer Employees coverage under the applicable Mobil Retiree Medical Plan. Mobil will offer coverage under the
Mobil Retiree Medical Plan to any Buyer Employee who has met such eligibility requirements at the Closing Date and when employment with Buyer terminates (whether or not such Buyer Employee was eligible for an offer at the Closing Date). The
eligibility requirements for coverage under a Mobil Retiree Medical Plan are as follows: (1) a salaried employee must be at least 50 years old and have at least 10 years of service with Mobil; and (2) an hourly employee must be at least 55
years old and have at least 20 years of service with Mobil. Mobil will retain all liabilities for retiree medical coverage for this group of Buyer Employees. 

  
 49 

 Schedule 9.1(d) lists all Employees who, as of the date of this Agreement, are eligible or
may become eligible for retiree medical coverage under a Mobil Retiree Medical Plan in accordance with the preceding paragraph. Prior to the Closing Date, Mobil will provide individual notification to such Employees of their right or potential right
to elect retiree medical coverage under the applicable Mobil Retiree Medical Plan as above-described (at the time they terminate their employment with Mobil, if applicable, and with Buyer). Within two (2) Business Days after the Closing Date,
Mobil will provide Buyer with a final list of Buyer Employees eligible or potentially eligible for retiree medical coverage under an applicable Mobil Retiree Medical Plan (subject to the addition of any Inactive Employees who are later employed by
Buyer in accordance with this Section 9.1). 
  

	 	(e)	With respect to Buyer Employees not described in subsection (d) above, Buyer agrees to provide certain retiree medical coverage to such Buyer Employees who satisfy
the eligibility requirements for coverage under the Mobil Medical Plan (as described in subsection (d) above) upon termination of employment with Buyer, except that “service” shall include service with Buyer. Buyer Employees who are
eligible for coverage under a Mobil Retiree Medical Plan shall be specifically excluded from eligibility for retiree medical coverage with Buyer. Buyer shall provide such retiree medical coverage as it is able to obtain from the insurer for its
group medical plan for active employees, as such insurer may be changed from time to time (an “Agrifos Retiree Medical Plan”). The aggregate cost to Buyer for providing such coverage shall not exceed $566,000, which is the amount
that the Parties agree is the present value of the projected cost for providing coverage under the Agrifos Retiree Medical Plan. Buyer and Mobil agree to split this projected cost $198,000 and $368,000, respectively. Mobil agrees to pay its share of
the projected cost by means of a credit to Buyer against payment of the Purchase Price at Closing. Coverage under the Agrifos Retiree Medical Plan shall be unfunded and shall be provided on a pay-as-you-go basis. 

 

	 	(f)	Buyer shall provide all Buyer Employees with vacation time rather than cash in lieu of vacation time for all vacation earned, accrued and unpaid through the Closing
Date. Mobil shall pay to Buyer any accrued vacation settlement as part of the Post Closing Statement. 

  
 50 

	 	(g)	Buyer shall establish and maintain from the Closing Date through the first anniversary of the Closing Date a severance pay plan providing benefits to salaried Buyer
Employees, the terms and benefits of which are substantially similar to the severance benefits provided by Mobil under the Separation Benefit Plan of Mobil Corporation in existence as of the Closing Date (a complete and correct copy of which has
been provided to Buyer). Such plan shall recognize service with Mobil prior to the Closing Date. 

  

	 	(h)	Mobil shall retain sponsorship of the Mobil Benefit Plans and Mobil Benefit Arrangements, and Buyer shall not be entitled to any assets of the Mobil Benefit Plans or
the Mobil Benefit Arrangements. If Buyer maintains or establishes a defined contribution savings plan, such plan shall, subject to applicable law, accept rollovers by Buyer Employees. 

 

	 	(i)	Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, nothing herein shall affect Buyer’s right to amend or terminate any employee benefit plan or to terminate any
employee, including any Buyer Employee, at any time and for any reason. 

  

	9.2	Compliance with WARN, etc. Mobil with respect to the Employees will timely give all notices required to be given under WARN or other similar statutes or
regulations of any jurisdiction relating to any plant closing or mass layoff or as otherwise required by any such statute. 

  

	9.3	Union Contracts. At Closing, Mobil shall convey and Buyer shall assume all of Mobil’s rights and obligations under the Union Contracts, and the Parties
shall use reasonable efforts to obtain the release of Mobil from each such Union Contract by the union which is party thereto. 

  

	9.4	New Assignments, Hiring. Mobil shall inform Buyer promptly and obtain Buyer’s approval of the hiring or assignment of any new salaried employees for the
Pasadena Facility after this Agreement becomes effective and prior to the Closing. 

  

	9.5	Assurances. Prior to the Closing, Buyer shall keep Mobil advised of Buyer’s plans, programs and activities to comply with the provisions of this Article IX
upon the Closing Date, and Mobil shall have the right, in its reasonable discretion, to determine whether such plans and programs adequately satisfy Buyer’s obligations hereunder. 

  
 51 

 ARTICLE X 
 MOBIL AND BUYER COVENANTS AND ENVIRONMENTAL EXAMINATION PERIOD 
  

	10.1	Access. Prior to the Closing, Mobil shall permit Buyer and its representatives to have access, during regular business hours and upon reasonable advance notice,
to the Transferred Assets, subject to reasonable rules and regulations of Mobil, and shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, to Buyer, any cost and operating data, permits, approvals and other information that is available with respect to the
Pasadena Facility as Buyer shall from time to time reasonably request. All information coming into the possession or knowledge of either Buyer or any of Buyer’s agents as a result of such access is deemed Confidential Information under the
terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. 

  

	10.2	Conduct of Business. From the date hereof to the Closing, except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement or as agreed to in writing by the Parties, Mobil
covenants and agrees (i) to conduct the Pasadena Facility in the ordinary and usual course of business; (ii) to use reasonable efforts to preserve intact the Pasadena Facility and its relationships with third parties; (iii) to
maintain all necessary Governmental Authorizations in full force and effect; (iv) to not create any new Mobil Benefit Plans or Mobil Benefit Arrangements; and (v) not to create or suffer to exist, with respect to the Real Property, any
liens, encumbrances, easements, restrictions, claims, reversions, options or other agreements (other than the Permitted Encumbrances) which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. This Section 10.2 shall not restrict any
actions Mobil may take with respect to Non-Division Assets. 

  
 52 

	10.3	Best Efforts. Mobil and Buyer will cooperate and use their respective best efforts to fulfill the conditions precedent to the other Party’s obligations
hereunder, including, but not limited to, securing as promptly as practicable all consents, approvals, waivers and authorizations required in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Mobil and Buyer shall promptly notify the other Party
of any Claim or liability which is known to Mobil or Buyer but which may be the responsibility or obligation of the other Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 

 

	10.4	Environmental Examination and Responsibilities. 

  

	 	(a)	The Parties shall conduct and complete an environmental examination (the “Environmental Examination”) of the Transferred Assets (which may include
soil, surface and groundwater sampling). The Environmental Examination may commence at any time but shall end on or before the Closing (the “Environmental Examination Period”). Mobil shall provide reasonable access to the
Transferred Assets for the purpose of conducting the Environmental Examination, provided that any person entering the Pasadena Facility for such purpose has been furnished with and is bound by a confidentiality agreement satisfactory to
Mobil. Prior to permitting any agents, consultants or contractors to enter the Pasadena Facility, Mobil reserves the right to (i) cause any such party to execute and deliver to Mobil a satisfactory form of waiver; and (ii) cause any such
party to deliver current certificates of insurance certifying that such party has in place public liability insurance during such inspection period in the minimum sum of one million dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit for death, bodily injury
and property damage, with companies and in single or blanket coverage forms reasonably satisfactory to Mobil. The Parties agree to share equally the costs and expenses of the examination. 

 

	 	(b)	If any suspected Environmental Condition is discovered regarding the Transferred Assets, both Parties shall be notified, provided that following the Closing, any such
notice must be given to Mobil not later than one (1) year thereafter and that Buyer’s failure to give timely any such notice after the Closing Date shall relieve and release Mobil from any Claim hereunder with respect to such Environmental
Condition. In the event that an Indemnified Environmental Condition is determined to have resulted from releases or activities occurring both before and after the Closing Date, responsibility for the remediation thereof shall be shared by Mobil and
Buyer based upon each Party’s proportional responsibility therefor but subject to the timing and expenditure limitations set forth in Section 10.4(f). In the event of disagreement by the Parties regarding the existence of, time of
causation or proportionality responsibility for such an Indemnified Environmental Condition, which disagreement is not resolved within fifteen (15) days of the date either Party provides written notice of such disagreement, then Parties shall
cause a re-examination, retesting or re-evaluation to be done promptly by ERM Southwest, Inc. or another entity mutually agreeable to the Parties. The costs of such firm’s work shall be borne equally by the Parties, and such firm’s report
shall be binding on the Parties as to the existence or non-existence, contribution and timing of such Indemnified Environmental Condition. The provisions of this Section 10.4(b) shall survive the Closing. The Parties hereby agree that Schedule
10.4(b) sets forth the Environmental Conditions discovered by the Parties prior to the Closing Date as the result of the Environmental Examination (the “Identified Environmental Conditions”). 

  
 53 

	 	(c)	The Identified Environmental Conditions shall be remedied by one of the three mechanisms below, as shall be agreed by the Parties (such agreement to be evidenced by a
writing signed by both Parties and delivered at Closing); provided, however, that in the event that the Response Costs with respect to such Identified Environmental Conditions are determined by an expert mutually agreeable to the
Parties to exceed five million dollars ($5,000,000), either Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to the other Party and thereafter neither Party shall have any obligation, legal, equitable or
otherwise, to the other Party with respect to the Transaction and the Deposit shall be returned to Buyer: 

  

	 	(1)	Subject to the provisions of Section 10.4(d), Mobil shall remediate or otherwise correct the Identified Environmental Condition at Mobil’s own expense to the
point where such Identified Environmental Condition complies with Environmental Law, such compliance to be evidenced by (A) the issuance of a no further action letter, certificate of compliance or other form of approval or release by the
relevant regulatory agency or agencies, or (B) in the event that such Identified Environmental Condition is not currently the subject of an enforcement action by any regulatory agency, the opinion of a recognized, qualified environmental
consultant reasonably satisfactory to Buyer; or 

  

	 	(2)	Subject to the provisions of Section 10.4(e), such Identified Environmental Condition shall be deemed and scheduled as an Assumed Liability, and the Parties shall
agree on a resulting reduction in the Purchase Price; or 

  

	 	(3)	The Transferred Asset affected by such Identified Environmental Condition shall be deemed and scheduled as a Non-Division Asset, and the Parties shall agree on a
resulting reduction in the Purchase Price; provided, however, that this mechanism shall not be available if and to the extent that the inclusion of such Transferred Asset as a Non-Division Asset would have a Material Adverse Effect on
the ability of Buyer to operate the Pasadena Facility from after the Closing Date in substantially the manner such Pasadena Facility was operated by Mobil on or prior to the Closing Date. 

  
 54 

	 	(d)	If the Parties elect mechanism #1 of Section 10.4(c) above with respect to any Identified Environmental Condition, then Mobil shall retain all liability for such
Identified Environmental Condition as it existed immediately prior to the Closing Date until such Identified Environmental Condition is corrected or remediated as required by mechanism #1 and such Identified Environmental Condition shall be an
Excluded Liability. During the period required for correction or remediation, Mobil shall remain liable for the Identified Environmental Condition with respect to any Claims made on Buyer by any Person with regard thereto including any fines,
penalties, exemplary or punitive damages assessed with respect thereto. Buyer shall cooperate with and provide Mobil with the same rights and assistance as are provided in Section 6.3 in order that Mobil can complete the remediation or
correction, and Mobil shall provide reasonable notice to Buyer before undertaking such remediation or correction. In accordance with Section 6.3 and subject to the provisions thereof, Mobil and Buyer agree that the correction/remediation and
the ongoing operation of the Transferred Assets shall not unreasonably interfere with each other. Upon completion of the remediation or correction as required by mechanism #1, whichever occurs earlier, Mobil shall be automatically released from
responsibility for such Identified Environmental Condition and, with respect to any such Identified Environmental Condition, Buyer shall fully indemnify, hold harmless and defend Mobil from such former condition and any related damages, losses and
liabilities, as if the condition had been an Assumed Liability. The provisions of this Section 10.4(d) shall survive the Closing. 

  

	 	(e)	In the event that the Parties elect mechanism #2 of Section 10.4(c) above with respect to any Identified Environmental Condition, then Buyer shall fully release
Mobil as to such Identified Environmental Condition, and, with respect to any such Identified Environmental Condition, Buyer shall fully indemnify, defend and hold Mobil harmless from and against any damages, losses and liabilities with regard to
such Identified Environmental Condition, including any Claim brought by any Person or agency with respect to the Environmental Laws, and shall assume full obligation to bring such Identified Environmental Condition into compliance with all
Environmental Laws. The provisions of this Section 10.4(e) shall survive the Closing. 

  
 55 

	 	(f)	Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Mobil’s liability for Buyer Losses relating to or arising out of any Environmental Condition
(other than the Identified Environmental Conditions) which is discovered after Closing and within the one-year period thereafter but which arose out of actions or omissions occurring prior to the Closing Date (an “Indemnified Environmental
Condition”) shall be limited specifically in time and amount as follows, and the provisions of this Section 10.4(f) shall survive the Closing: 

 

	 	(1)	Mobil shall not have any liability for any Indemnified Environmental Condition unless and until the aggregate amount of all Response Costs with respect to such
Indemnified Environmental Condition exceeds ten thousand dollars ($10,000). Buyer shall assume all liability with respect to any Indemnified Environmental Condition with respect to which the Response Costs do not exceed $10,000 (a “De
Minimis Condition”) and each such De Minimis Condition shall constitute an Assumed Liability hereunder. No De Minimis Condition shall be included in the calculation of or count toward the Buyer Cap. 

 

	 	(2)	In the event that the Response Costs for any Indemnified Environmental Condition are more than $10,000 but less than $150,000 (a “Type A Condition”),
then Buyer shall be responsible for all such Response Costs with respect thereto subject to the limitations of subparagraph (4) below. All Response Costs incurred by Buyer with respect to a Type A Condition shall be included in the calculation
and shall count toward the Buyer Cap and shall be deemed and scheduled as an Assumed Liability of Buyer. 

  
 56 

	 	(3)	In the event that the Response Costs for any Indemnified Environmental Condition are more than $150,000 (a “Type B Condition”), then Buyer shall be
responsible for (A) the first $150,000 of Response Costs with respect thereto and (B) 35% of all remaining Response Costs with respect thereto, in each case subject to the limitations of subparagraph (4) below. All Response Costs
incurred by Buyer with respect to a Type B Condition shall be included in the calculation and shall count toward the Buyer Cap and shall be deemed and scheduled as an Assumed Liability of Buyer. 

 

	 	(4)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, expenditures by Buyer with respect to Indemnified Environmental Conditions (excluding expenditures with respect to De
Minimis Conditions) shall not, in the aggregate, exceed the Buyer Cap; provided, however, that expenditures with respect to Indemnified Environmental Conditions in excess of the Mobil Cap shall be for the account of Buyer as set forth
in subparagraph (5) below. 

  

	 	(5)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, expenditures by Mobil with respect to Indemnified Environmental Conditions shall not, in the aggregate, exceed the
Mobil Cap; and Buyer shall release, hold harmless and indemnify Mobil for any responsibility or liability for Indemnified Environmental Conditions in excess of the Mobil Cap and for any Environmental Condition for which Mobil was not notified within
one (1) year following the Closing Date. Value determination shall be by an expert mutually-agreeable to the Parties. 

  
 57 

	 	(g)    (1)	In the event that Buyer discovers any Indemnified Environmental Condition within the one-year period from and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall promptly give written
notice of such Indemnified Environmental Condition to Mobil specifying the factual basis of such Indemnified Environmental Condition (a “Notice of Environmental Condition”). To the extent practicable, such Notice of Environmental
Condition shall be accompanied by a report from a professional environmental consultant retained by Buyer setting forth such testing, sampling or analytical results to evidence its determination of the existence of such Indemnified Environmental
Condition, the proposed Response to such Indemnified Environmental Condition and an estimate of the Response Costs reasonably required to implement such Response (the “Supporting Materials”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the failure of Buyer to provide such Supporting Materials with the Notice of Environmental Condition shall not cause the Notice of Environmental Condition to be deemed to have been untimely given for purposes of the limitation requiring
Buyer to give notice of any Indemnified Environmental Condition within the one-year period from and after the Closing Date, provided that Buyer shall provide Mobil with such Supporting Materials within 180 days of the date of delivery of the
Notice of Environmental Condition. In the event that (i) a Notice of Environmental Condition is given on or prior to the date which is one (1) year from and after the Closing Date and (ii) the Supporting Materials with respect to such
Notice of Environmental Condition are provided within such 180-day period, then Mobil’s liability for the Indemnified Environmental Condition which is the subject of such Notice of Environmental Condition shall survive until such time as the
Indemnified Environmental Condition is remediated in accordance with the standards set forth in Section 10.4(c)(1) of this Agreement. 

  

	 	(2)	Following receipt of a Notice of Environmental Condition and the Supporting Material with respect thereto, Mobil shall have ninety (90) days to make such
investigation of such Indemnified Environmental Condition as Mobil deems reasonably necessary or desirable and to provide Buyer with written notice of Mobil’s objection to Buyer’s Notice of Environmental Condition, accompanied by a report
from a professional environmental consultant retained by Mobil setting forth such testing, sampling or analytical results evidencing the basis for its objection to the existence of such Indemnified Environmental Condition, the proposed Response to
such Indemnified Environmental Condition and/or Buyer’s estimate of the Response Costs associated therewith. 

  

	 	(3)	Following receipt of such written objection by Mobil, the environmental consultant retained by Buyer and the environmental consultant retained by Mobil shall work each
with the other to resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days of Buyer’s receipt of Mobil’s written objections. In the event such environmental consultants cannot resolve such dispute within such period, such environmental
consultants shall mutually agree on the selection of a third environmental consultant (which shall not have been employed previously by either Party or an Affiliate thereof). The determination of such third environmental consultant shall govern. The
Parties shall share equally in the costs and expenses of such third environmental consultant. 

  
 58 

	 	(4)	If Mobil does not provide Buyer with such written notice of Mobil’s objection to Buyer’s Notice of Environmental Condition within such ninety (90) day
period or upon agreement by Mobil’s and Buyer’s environmental consultant, as the case may be, Buyer shall implement the proposed Response and, upon the incurrence of such Response Costs and subject to the limitations set forth in paragraph
(f) above, Mobil shall reimburse Buyer the full amount of such Response Costs within ten (10) days of Buyer’s presentation of invoices to Mobil for such Response Costs. 

 

	 	(5)	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, as between Mobil and Buyer, Mobil shall not be permitted to maintain an objection to any Indemnified Environmental
Condition if the proposed Response with respect thereto is required as the result of an emergency or as the result of an order of any federal, state or local governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Indemnified Environmental Condition and
the failure to comply with such order would (A) subject Buyer to criminal prosecution or criminal or civil penalty, or (B) cause the Pasadena Facility, the Real Property or any Transferred Asset to be subject to an Environmental Lien or
foreclosure. 

  

	10.5	Wetlands Project. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Mobil shall retain liability for the Wetlands Liabilities, including any and all liability
arising under the Consent Decree, and shall indemnify and hold Buyer harmless with respect thereto. This Section 10.5 shall survive the Closing and shall not be subject to the limitations on liability set forth in Section 10.4(f) or
Section 14.3. 

  

	10.6	Exclusivity. Until the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement, a Party shall not negotiate or discuss with any third party (without the prior written
consent of the other Party) the acquisition or divestiture of the Transferred Assets, provided that each Party may discuss the transactions contemplated in this Agreement with its agents, consultants, attorneys and accountants, and Buyer may discuss
such matters with its lenders or prospective lenders. 

  
 59 

	10.7	Subsequent Asset Sales by Buyer. Without the prior written consent of Mobil (which consent shall be limited to review and consideration of the subject matter
listed on Schedule 10.7 and which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), Buyer shall not sell or agree to sell any portion of the Transferred Assets, including all or any portion of the Existing Gypsum Stacks or their contents, at any time
prior to the last to occur of (i) Closure and (ii) the satisfaction of all of Mobil’s outstanding obligations under the Sulfuric Acid Exchange Agreement between Mobil Oil Corporation and Air Products Manufacturing Corporation dated
January 1, 1989, as amended by Addendum No. 1 executed on August 8, 1994 and further amended by Addendum No. 2 executed on August 28, 1996. Mobil’s consent may be contingent upon Buyer first entering into a written
agreement with the subsequent buyer providing therein such provisions from this Agreement as Mobil may reasonably request, including but not limited to adequate security arrangements and other reasonable assurances intended to protect Mobil’s
interests should a future sale of the Transferred Assets by the subsequent buyer be contemplated. Buyer shall give Mobil reasonable notice and time to review such third-party agreement to ensure that Mobil is adequately protected as contemplated
herein. In addition, Buyer agrees that the deed conveying title to the Real Property to Buyer shall contain the following restrictive covenant and notice: 

 “As part of the consideration for this conveyance, Buyer for itself, its successors or permitted assigns, covenants and agrees that (i) (A) neither the contents and/or material comprising
the Existing Gypsum Stacks nor any part thereof shall at any time be used, moved, sold, distributed or disposed of without the prior written consent of Mobil or its successors or assigns and (B) neither any land herein conveyed on which the
Existing Gypsum Stacks are located nor any part thereof shall at any time from the date of this deed forward through the date of Closure be used, moved, sold, distributed or disposed of without the prior written consent of Mobil or its successors or
assigns, (ii) this covenant shall survive delivery of this deed, (iii) this covenant and agreement is to run with the land herein conveyed, and (iv) a similar restrictive covenant shall be inserted in any deed, lease or other
instrument conveying or demising the Existing Gypsum Stacks or any land herein conveyed on which such Existing Gypsum Stacks are located or any part thereof. 
  

	    	Notice: The land conveyed herein may be or may have been used for the manufacture and storage of naturally occurring radioactive materials which may remain on or may
have spilled, leaked, seeped or entered onto or under the ground or into ground waters of the land conveyed herein.” 

  

	10.8	Purchase Price Allocation. Mobil and Buyer will negotiate in good faith to agree to an allocation of the Purchase Price for the Transferred Assets among the
Transferred Assets; provided, however, that such Purchase Price allocation conforms in all respects to the requirements of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, as well as any applicable state, local or foreign law.
Mobil and Buyer will use the asset values determined from such allocation for purposes of all reports and returns with respect to Taxes, including Internal Revenue Service Form 8594 or any equivalent statement.

substantially the same manner as conducted by Mobil prior thereto, except only those consents to assignment, novations and other such instruments, the absence of which, in Buyer’s reasonable judgment, will not have a Material Adverse Effect.
The Parties shall cooperate using reasonable commercial efforts to complete the transfers. Buyer specifically recognizes that, as set forth in Schedule 7.3, many authorizations cannot be effected until post-Closing and are contingent upon Buyer
being able to demonstrate reasonable assurances to the appropriate agency that it can operate the Transferred Assets in accord with the Governmental Authorizations. Buyer shall have assisted Mobil in the preparation of all documents associated with
this Section 11.2(f) by the Closing Date.

 ARTICLE XII 
 ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS 
  

	12.1	Municipally Financed Property. Mobil has informed Buyer that certain of the Transferred Assets described in Schedule 12.1(a) (the “Municipally Financed
Property”) has been financed with the proceeds of certain bonds (the “Bonds” issued as a refinancing on July 1, 1997 of certain bonds issued to refund the then outstanding bonds issued in 1978 (the “Prior
Bonds”). The Bonds have a maturity date of July 1, 2007. Mobil has provided Buyer with copies of the relevant agreements and the Offering Circular issued in connection with the Bonds and copies of the relevant agreements issued in
connection with the Prior Bonds. (Such documents are listed in Schedule 12.1(b) hereto.) Mobil hereby covenants to Buyer that Mobil shall not without Buyer’s prior written consent agree to any amendment of the Bonds or any financing document
executed in connection therewith which would result in the extension of the final maturity date of the Bonds past July 1, 2007. Buyer represents to Mobil that until the final maturity date of the Bonds, or such earlier date on which all of the
Bonds have been redeemed, it will not use the Municipally Financed Property for purposes other than pollution control and/or sewage treatment (a “Qualifying Purpose”) and that it will not take any action which will cause the Bonds
to cease being exempt from tax under provisions of applicable law as in effect on the date of this Agreement. 

  
 64 

	    	Buyer agrees that if any of the Municipally Financed Property is retired from service, or ceases to be used for a Qualifying Purpose, it will provide written notice to
Mobil within ten (10) days of the decision to retire such property or the date such property ceases to be used for such Qualifying Purpose if such cessation is through damage to the property, describing in such detail as Mobil may reasonably
require the facilities that cease to be used for a Qualifying Purpose and the use, if any, that is intended to be made of such property. Buyer further agrees to notify Mobil within ten (10) days of the occurrence of any of the following events:

  

	 	(a)	the Municipally Financed Property is damaged or destroyed to such an extent that either (i) the required restoration and repair could not reasonably be expected to
be completed within a period of six (6) months after commencement of restoration or repair, (ii) Buyer (or any subsequent assignee) is prevented or would likely be prevented from using the Municipally Financed Property for its normal
purposes for a period of six (6) months or more or (iii) the cost of restoration and repair would exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of eleven million one hundred twenty-two thousand, five hundred dollars ($11,122,500.00); or

  

	 	(b)	title to the whole or any part of the Municipally Financed Property or the use of possession thereof is taken or condemned by a competent authority to such an extent
that Buyer (or any subsequent assignee) is prevented or would likely be prevented from using the Municipally Financed Property for its normal purposes for a period of six (6) months or more; or 

 

	 	(c)	changes, which Buyer cannot reasonably control or overcome, in the economic availability of materials, supplies, labor, equipment and other properties and things
necessary for the efficient operation of the Municipally Financed Property as pollution control or sewage facilities occur, or technological or other changes occur, which render the continued operation of the Municipally Financed Property uneconomic
for such purposes; or 

  

	 	(d)	unreasonable burdens of excessive liabilities are imposed upon Buyer (or any subsequent assignee) with respect to the Municipally Financed Property or the operation of
the Municipally Financed Property, including, but without being limited to, federal, state or other ad valorem, property, income or other taxes, other than such taxes as are currently imposed on the date of this Agreement, including, but without
limitation, ad valorem taxes imposed on the date of this Agreement, upon privately owned property used for the same general purposes as the Municipally Financed Property. 

Buyer further agrees that, upon any sale, conveyance or other transfer of the Municipally Financed Property or control of the Municipally
Financed Property to any person or entity, it shall require that such person or entity give such notice to Buyer and Mobil in the time period set forth above. 
 In addition, Buyer shall allow Mobil and its agents access to the Municipally Financed Property at reasonable times and on reasonable notice and shall provide such additional information as Mobil may
request for the purpose of determining whether the Municipally Financed Property is being used for a Qualifying Purpose or for determining whether or demonstrating that the Bonds (or any bonds issued to refund the Bonds) are, were or will be exempt
from tax. 
 Buyer agrees not to sell or otherwise transfer the Municipally Financed Property to any person unless the purchaser
or transferee undertakes to comply with the requirements of this Section 12.1. 

  
 65 

 ARTICLE XIII 
 POST-CLOSING OBLIGATIONS 
  

	13.1	Post-Closing Obligations. 

  

	 	(a)	At any time after the Closing Date, either Party, at the request of the other, shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver any other assurances or documents
reasonably required to effectuate the sale, assignment, transfer or delivery of the Transferred Assets or to satisfy their respective obligations hereunder or obtain the benefits contemplated hereby. Should Mobil be billed for any real estate taxes
applicable to the Transferred Assets for any period after the Closing Date, which taxes were not allocated and paid by Buyer at the Closing or pursuant to the Post-Closing Statement, Mobil shall forward such bill to Buyer who will pay it directly
and timely. 

  

	 	(b)	The Parties shall cooperate using reasonable commercial efforts to complete transfers or to effect the issuance of Governmental Authorizations in the name of Buyer.
Notwithstanding the fact that a Governmental Authorization shall not have been effectively transferred or issued to Buyer as of the Closing Date, Buyer agrees that, with respect to each such Governmental Authorization which is required for the
continued operation of the Pasadena Facility, it shall comply with the terms and conditions thereof as if such Governmental Authorization had been transferred to or issued in the name of Buyer as of the Closing Date. 

  
 66 

 ARTICLE XIV 
 SURVIVAL; INDEMNIFICATION 
  

	14.1	Survival. All of the representations and warranties of Mobil contained in this Agreement and all claims and causes of action with respect thereto shall terminate
upon the Closing Date, except that (i) the representations and warranties in Sections 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5 and 7.12 shall have no expiration date and (ii) the representations and warranties in Sections 7.6, 7.7, 7.9, 7.10, 7.11, 7.13,
7.14 and 7.15 shall survive for one (1) year from the Closing Date. The representations and warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement shall expire upon the earlier of (i) completion of Closure and (ii) expiration of the
applicable statute of limitations. In the event notice of any claim for indemnification under Section 14.2(i) or Section 14.3(a)(i) is given within the applicable survival period, and as otherwise permitted by the provisions of this
Agreement, the representations and warranties that are the subject of such indemnification claim (but only such claim) shall survive until such time as such claim is finally resolved. Except as expressly set forth in Section 14.7 below, all
claims for indemnification under Section 14.3(a)(ii) shall survive the Closing Date and shall survive until each such claim is finally resolved. 

  

	14.2	Indemnification by Buyer. Buyer hereby agrees that it shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Mobil, its Affiliates and, if applicable, their respective
directors, officers, attorneys, accountants, agents, employees (other than the Employees) and representatives and their heirs, successors and assigns (the “Mobil Indemnified Parties”) from, against and in respect to any damages,
claims, losses, liabilities, charges, actions, suits, proceedings, deficiencies, Taxes, interest, penalties, fines and costs and expenses (including, without limitation, removal costs, Response Costs, remediation and correction costs, changes to
plant or equipment, fines, penalties and expenses of investigation and ongoing monitoring, and reasonable attorneys’ fees) but excluding consequential, indirect, special, punitive or exemplary damages related solely to actions or inactions of
any of the Mobil Indemnified Parties (collectively, the “Mobil Losses”) imposed on, sustained, incurred or suffered by or asserted against any of the Mobil Indemnified Parties, directly or indirectly, relating to or arising out of
(i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer contained in this Agreement (ii) the Assumed Liabilities, (iii) the breach of any covenant or agreement of Buyer contained in this Agreement, and (iv) operation of
the Transferred Assets after the Closing Date. 

  
 67 

	14.3	Indemnification by Mobil. 

  

	 	(a)	Mobil shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer, and, if applicable, its directors, officers, partners, attorneys, accountants, agents and employees (other than
the Buyer Employees) and their heirs, successors and assigns (the “Buyer Indemnified Parties” and, collectively with the Mobil Indemnified Parties, the “Indemnified Parties”) from, against and in respect to any
damages, claims, losses, liabilities, changes, actions, suits, proceedings, deficiencies, Taxes, interest, penalties, fines and costs and expenses (including, without limitation, removal costs, Response Costs, remediation and correction costs,
charges to plant or equipment, fines, penalties and expenses of investigation and ongoing monitoring, and reasonable attorneys’ fees) but excluding consequential, indirect, special, punitive or exemplary damages related solely to actions or
inactions of any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties (the “Buyer Losses”) imposed on, sustained, incurred or suffered by or asserted against any of Buyer Indemnified Parties, directly or indirectly, relating to or arising out of
(i) the breach of any representation or warranty made by Mobil contained in this Agreement for the period such representation or warranty survives, (ii) all Excluded Liabilities and (iii) subject to Section 14.3(b), the breach of
any covenant or agreement of Mobil contained in this Agreement. Buyer acknowledges that Section 10.4 and this Article XIV constitute Buyer’s sole remedy with respect to any of the matters referred to herein and expressly waives any other
rights or causes of action, including those arising under any Environmental Law or with respect to any claim involving the presence of or exposure to any Hazardous Substance, including but not limited to 42 U.S.C. 9610, et seq., and 42
U.S.C. 6901, et seq. 

  

	 	(b)	Mobil shall not be liable to Buyer Indemnified Parties for any Buyer Losses (other than for (i) Buyer Losses relating to or arising out of any Environmental
Conditions which Buyer Losses shall be subject to the provisions of Section 10.4(f) and (ii) Buyer Losses relating to or arising out of a breach of the representation and warranties set forth in Section 7.12) with respect to the
matters contained in Section 14.3(a)(i) and (iii) unless either (x) the Buyer Losses from any single breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement exceed one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) or (y) the aggregate
Buyer Losses from all such breaches exceed three hundred seventy-five thousand dollars ($375,000), in either of which cases Mobil shall be liable to Buyer Indemnified Parties for the full amount of such Buyer Losses; provided, that
Mobil’s liability under this Section 14.3(b) with respect to the matters contained in Section 14.3(a)(1) and (iii) shall be limited in time to those Buyer Losses with respect to which a notice of claim for indemnification is
given by Buyer Indemnified Parties within the applicable survival period set forth in Section 14.1 and shall be further limited to an aggregate amount equal to the Purchase Price in all events. Any Buyer Losses which are Excluded Liabilities or
the liability of Mobil pursuant to Section 6.2(c) shall not be included in the foregoing amounts and time period nor limited to the Purchase Price total. 

  
 68 

	14.4	Indemnification Procedures. 

  

	 	(a)	With respect to third-party claims, all claims for indemnification by any Indemnified Party hereunder shall be asserted and resolved as set forth in this
Section 14.4. In the event that any written claim or demand for which Buyer or Mobil, as the case may be (an “Indemnifying Party”), would be liable to any Indemnified Party hereunder, is asserted against or sought to be
collected from any Indemnified Party by a third party, such Indemnified Party shall promptly, but in no event more than fifteen (15) days following such Indemnified Party’s receipt of such claim or demand, notify the Indemnifying Party of
such claim or demand and the amount or the estimated amount thereof to the extent then feasible (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such claim or demand) (the “Claim Notice”). 

 

	 	(b)	The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days from the delivery of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnified Party
(i) whether or not the Indemnifying Party disputes the liability of the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party hereunder with respect to such claim or demand and (ii) whether or not it desires to defend the Indemnified Party against
such claim or demand; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party may not assume the defense of any such claim or demand unless it acknowledges to the Indemnified Party that it is liable therefor hereunder. All costs and expenses incurred by the
Indemnifying Party in defending such claim or demand shall be a liability of, and shall be paid by, the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that the amount of such costs and expenses that shall be a liability of Mobil hereunder
shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 14.3(b). 

  
 69 

	 	(c)	Except as hereinafter provided, in the event that the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period that it desires to defend the
Indemnified Party against such claim or demand, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense, to defend the Indemnified Party by appropriate proceedings and shall have the sole power to direct and control such defense,
unless the Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party that, in the opinion of its counsel, there are defenses available to it which would not be available to the Indemnifying Party. If any Indemnified Party desires to participate in any such
defense, it may do so at its sole cost and expense. The Indemnified Party shall not settle a claim or demand without the consent of the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party,
settle, compromise or offer to settle or compromise any such claim or demand on a basis which would adversely and unreasonably restrict the future activity or conduct of the Indemnified Party or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof. If the
Indemnifying Party elects not to defend the Indemnified Party against such claim or demand, whether by not giving the Indemnified Party timely notice as provided above or otherwise, then the amount of any such claim or demand or, if the same be
contested by the Indemnified Party, then that portion thereof as to which such defense is unsuccessful (and the reasonable costs and expenses pertaining to such defense), shall be the liability of the Indemnifying Party hereunder, subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 14.3(b). 

  

	 	(d)	To the extent the Indemnifying Party shall direct, control or participate in the defense or settlement of any third party claim or demand, the Indemnified Party will
give the Indemnifying Party and its counsel access to, during normal business hours, the relevant business records and other documents, and shall permit them to consult with the employees and counsel of the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnifying
Party will advise the Indemnified Party and its counsel of all material developments in such defense or settlement. The Indemnified Party and, if applicable, the Indemnifying Party shall use its best efforts in the defense of all such claims.

  
 70 

	14.5	Characterization of Indemnification Payments. All amounts paid by Buyer or Mobil to the other under this Agreement shall be treated as adjustments to the
Purchase Price for all Tax purposes unless a determination (as defined in Section 1313 of the Code) with respect to the Indemnified Party causes any such payment not to constitute an adjustment to the Purchase Price for United States federal
income tax purposes. 

  

	14.6	Computation of Losses Subject to Indemnification. The amount of any Mobil Losses or Buyer Losses, as the case may be, for which indemnification is provided under
this Article XIV shall (i) be computed net of any insurance proceeds or Tax benefits received by the Indemnified Party in connection with such Losses and (ii) exclude consequential and punitive damages and lost profits (except to the
extent recovered by a third-party claimant). 

  

	14.7	Crye Litigation. In addition to, and not in derogation of, the indemnification provided for Excluded Liabilities in Section 14.3 of this Agreement and
solely with respect to the Crye Litigation, Mobil and Buyer hereby agree as follows: 

  

	(a)	Any monetary damages which shall be assessed against, or any settlement entered into by, Mobil and/or Buyer, as between Mobil and Buyer, shall be allocated
proportionally such that Mobil shall pay eighty percent (80%) and Buyer shall pay twenty percent (20%) of the total of such damages award or settlement amount. 

 

	(b)	In the event that there shall be issued any Injunction at any time on or before the commencement of the trial on the merits of the Crye Litigation, then Mobil shall pay
to Buyer (i) $55,000 per day for each of the first 30 days that such Injunction shall be in effect, and (ii) $30,000 per day for each of the next 365 days thereafter during which such Injunction shall be in effect.

  

	(c)	Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 16.2 of this Agreement, Buyer shall be entitled to collaterally assign any or all of its rights to indemnification under
this Section 14.7 and the other provisions of this Agreement to its lenders under the Financing Agreements. 

  

	(d)	The Crye Litigation shall be handled in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.3 of this Agreement and Mobil shall, in accordance with Section 14.4,
defend the Buyer Indemnified Parties at Mobil’s sole cost and expense; provided, however, that in the event that any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties elect to participate in such defense, the expenses of participating in such defense shall be
borne by such Buyer Indemnified Party. 

  
 71 

 ARTICLE XV 
 TERMINATION 
  

	15.1	Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing: 

 

	 	(a)	by either party giving written notice of such termination to the other if the environmental examination has not been completed within the Environmental Examination
Period; or 

  

	 	(b)	by Mobil in accordance with Section 4.1(c); or 

  

	 	(c)	by either Buyer or Mobil if there shall be in effect any law or regulation that prohibits the consummation of the Closing or if consummation of the Closing would
violate any non-appealable final order, decree or judgment of any court or governmental body having competent jurisdiction. 

  

	15.2	Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 15.1, this Agreement shall thereafter become void and
have no effect, and no Party hereto shall have any liability to the other Party hereto or their respective Affiliates, directors, officers or employees, except for the obligations of the Parties hereto contained in Sections 3.2, 10.1, 10.4(a), 16.5,
16.6, 16.7, and 16.8 and except that nothing herein will relieve any Party from liability for any breach of this Agreement prior to such termination. 

  
 72 

 ARTICLE XVI 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  

	16.1	Amendment; Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended only if such amendment is in writing and signed by Buyer and Mobil. Any provision of this
Agreement may be waived only if such waiver is in writing and signed by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof

remedies provided by law. 

  

	16.2	Assignment. Neither Party to this Agreement may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party hereto,

of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person other than Buyer, Mobil, the Indemnified Parties and their respective successors or permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason
of this Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. 

 

	16.5	Continued Confidentiality. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to alter or amend the Confidentiality Agreement or any part thereof, and the Parties

	 	(b)	All negotiations relating to this Agreement, the agreements and instruments to be delivered pursuant hereto and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have
been carried on without the intervention of any Person acting on behalf of Mobil in such manner as to give rise to any valid claim against Mobil or Buyer for any broker’s or finder’s fee or similar compensation in connection with the
