(d) No Limitation. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, the scope of these indemnity provisions may not be altered, restricted, limited, or changed by any other provision of this Agreement. The indemnity obligations of the Parties as set out in this Section 23 are independent of any insurance requirements as set out in Section 24, and such indemnity obligations shall not be lessened or extinguished by reason of a Party’s failure to obtain the required insurance coverages or by any defenses asserted by a Party’s insurers.

(e) Survival. These indemnity obligations shall survive the termination of this Agreement until all applicable statutes of limitation have run regarding any claims that could be made with respect to the activities contemplated by this Agreement.

24.

(d) Such certificates shall be in the form of the “Accord” Certificate of Insurance, and reflect that they are for the benefit of TLO and shall provide that there will be no material change in or cancellation of the policies unless TLO is given at least thirty (30) days prior written notice. Certificates providing evidence of renewal of coverage shall be furnished to TLO prior to policy expiration.

(e) Responsibility for Deductibles. Customer shall be solely responsible for any deductibles or self-insured retention.

25.	GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS

(a) Customer Certification. Customer certifies that none of the Products covered by this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order were derived from crude petroleum, petrochemical, or gas which was produced or withdrawn from storage in violation of any federal, state or other governmental law, nor in violation of any rule, regulation or promulgated by any governmental agency having jurisdiction in the premises.

(b) Licenses and Permits. If applicable, TLO shall maintain all necessary licenses and permits for its operation the Terminal.

(c) Compliance with Applicable Law. The Parties are entering into this Agreement and any Terminal Service Order in reliance upon and shall comply in all material respects with all Applicable Law which directly or indirectly affects the Products throughput hereunder, or any receipt, throughput delivery, transportation, handling or storage of Products hereunder or the ownership, operation or condition of the Terminal. Each Party shall be responsible for compliance with all Applicable Law associated with such Party’s respective performance hereunder and the operation of such Party’s facilities. In the event any action or obligation imposed upon a Party under this Agreement and any Terminal Service Order shall at any time be in conflict with any requirement of Applicable Law, then this Agreement and any Terminal Service Order shall immediately be modified to conform the action or obligation so adversely affected to the requirements of the Applicable Law, and all other provisions of this Agreement and any Terminal Service Order shall remain effective.

(d) Material Change in Applicable Law. If during the Term, any new Applicable Law becomes effective or any existing Applicable Law or its interpretation is materially changed, which change is not addressed by another provision of this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order and which has a material adverse economic impact upon a Party, either Party, acting in good faith, shall have the option to request renegotiation of the relevant provisions of this Agreement or a Terminal Service Order with respect to future performance. The Parties shall then meet to negotiate in good faith amendments to this Agreement or to an applicable Terminal Service Order that will conform to the new Applicable Law while preserving the Parties’ economic, operational, commercial and competitive arrangements in accordance with the understandings set forth herein.

26.	SUSPENSION OF REFINERY OPERATIONS

(a) No Termination. This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect regardless of whether Customer decides to permanently or indefinitely suspend refining operations at the Refinery for any period.

(b) Continued Liability for MTVF. If refining operations at the Refinery are suspended for any reason (including Refinery turnarounds and other scheduled maintenance), then Customer shall remain liable for the MTVF for the duration of the suspension.

27.	FORCE MAJEURE

(a) Definitions and Notice. As soon as possible upon the occurrence of a Force Majeure, TLO shall provide Customer with written notice of the occurrence of such Force Majeure (a “Force Majeure Notice”). TLO shall identify in such Force Majeure Notice the approximate length of time that TLO reasonably believes in good faith such Force Majeure shall continue (the “Force Majeure Period”). For the duration of the Force Majeure Period, Customer shall be permitted to reduce the applicable Manifest Railcar Loading and Unloading Capacity as provided in Section 28(b). If TLO advises in any Force Majeure Notice that it reasonably believes in good faith that the Force Majeure Period shall continue for more than twelve (12) consecutive Months, then, subject to Section 28 below, at any time after TLO delivers such Force Majeure Notice, either Party may terminate this Agreement with respect to the terminalling service to which the Force Majeure applies, but only upon delivery to the other Party of a notice (a “Termination Notice”) at least twelve (12) Months prior to the expiration of the Force Majeure Period; provided, however, that such Termination Notice shall be deemed cancelled and of no effect if the Force Majeure Period ends prior to the expiration of such twelve (12)-Month period. For the avoidance of doubt, neither Party may exercise its right under this Section 27(a) to terminate this Agreement as a result of a Force Majeure if the Terminal has been restored to working order since the applicable Force Majeure, including pursuant to a Restoration.

(b) Revocation of Customer Termination Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Customer delivers a Termination Notice to TLO (the “Customer Termination Notice”) and, within thirty (30) days after receiving such Customer Termination Notice, TLO notifies Customer that TLO reasonably believes in good faith that it shall be capable of fully performing its obligations under this Agreement within a reasonable period of time and Customer mutually agrees (which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld), then the Customer Termination Notice shall be deemed revoked and the applicable portion of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such Customer Termination Notice had never been given.

28.	CAPABILITIES OF FACILITIES

(a) Service Interruption. Subject to Force Majeure and interruptions for routine repair and maintenance, consistent with customary terminal industry standards, TLO shall use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize the interruption of service at the Terminal and any portion thereof. TLO shall promptly inform Customer operational personnel of any anticipated partial or complete interruption of service at the Terminal, including relevant information about

the nature, extent, cause and expected duration of the interruption and the actions TLO is taking to resume full operations, provided that TLO shall not have any liability for any failure to notify, or delay in notifying, Customer of any such matters except to the extent Customer has been materially prejudiced or damaged by such failure or delay.

(b) Restoration of Capacity. Subject to Force Majeure and interruptions for routine repair and maintenance, consistent with customary terminal industry standards, TLO shall maintain the Terminal in a condition and with a capacity sufficient to throughput a volume of Customer’s Heavy Oils at least equal to the Manifest Railcar Loading and Unloading Capacity. TLO’s obligations may be temporarily suspended during the occurrence of, and for the entire duration of, a Force Majeure or any interruption of service that prevents TLO from throughput a volume of Customer’s Heavy Oils at least equal to the Manifest Railcar Loading and Unloading Capacity. To the extent TLO is prevented from throughput a volume of Customer’s Heavy Oils at least equal to the Manifest Railcar Loading and Unloading Capacity for reasons of Force Majeure or other interruption of service, then Customer’s obligation to pay the MTVF shall be reduced proportionately. At such time as TLO is capable of throughputting a volume of Customer’s Heavy Oils at least equal to the Manifest Railcar Loading and Unloading Capacity, Customer’s obligation to pay the full MTVF shall be restored. If for any reason, including, without limitation, a Force Majeure event, the throughput capacity of the Terminal should fall below the Manifest Railcar Loading and Unloading Capacity, then within a reasonable period of time after the commencement of such reduction, TLO shall make repairs to the Terminal (to the extent it is able to do so) to restore the capacity of the Terminal to that required to throughput a volume of Customer’s Heavy Oils at least equal to the Manifest Railcar Loading and Unloading Capacity (“Restoration”). Except as provided below in Section 28(c), all of such Restoration shall be at TLO’s cost and expense, unless the damage creating the need for such repairs was caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Customer, its employees, agents or customers or the failure of Customer’s Products to meet the specifications as provided for in Section 15(a).

(c) Capacity Resolution. In the event of the failure of TLO to maintain the Terminal in a condition and with a capacity sufficient to throughput a volume of Customer’s Heavy Oils equal to the Manifest Railcar Loading and Unloading Capacity (for reasons other than Force Majeure), then either Party shall have the right to call a meeting between executives of both Parties by providing at least two (2) Business Days’ advance written notice. Any such meeting shall be held at a mutually agreeable location and will be attended by executives of both Parties each having sufficient authority to commit his or her respective Party to a Capacity Resolution (hereinafter defined). At the meeting, the Parties will negotiate in good faith with the objective of reaching a joint resolution for the Restoration of capacity on the Terminal which will, among other things, specify steps to be taken by TLO to fully accomplish Restoration and the deadlines by which the Restoration must be completed (the “Capacity Resolution”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Capacity Resolution shall set forth an agreed upon time schedule for the Restoration activities. Such time schedule shall be reasonable under the circumstances, consistent with customary terminal industry standards and shall take into consideration TLO’s economic considerations relating to costs of the repairs and Customer’s requirements concerning its refining and marketing operations. TLO shall use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to provide throughput of Customer’s Products at the Terminal, to the extent the Terminal has capability of doing so, during the period before Restoration is completed. In the event that Customer’s economic considerations justify incurring additional costs to restore the

Terminal in a more expedited manner than the time schedule determined in accordance with the preceding sentence, Customer may require TLO to expedite the Restoration to the extent reasonably possible, subject to Customer’s payment, in advance, of the estimated incremental costs to be incurred as a result of the expedited time schedule. In the event the Parties agree to an expedited Restoration plan in which Customer agrees to fund a portion of the Restoration cost, then neither Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in connection with a Force Majeure, so long as such Restoration is completed with due diligence, and Customer shall pay its portion of the Restoration costs to TLO in advance based on an estimate based on reasonable engineering standards promulgated by the Association for Facilities Engineering. Upon completion, Customer shall pay the difference between the actual portion of Restoration costs to be paid by Customer pursuant to this Section 28(c) and the estimated amount paid under the preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after receipt of TLO’s invoice therefor, or, if appropriate, TLO shall pay Customer the excess of the estimate paid by Customer over TLO’s actual costs as previously described within thirty (30) days after completion of the Restoration.

(d) Restoration. If at any time after the occurrence of (x) a Partnership Change of Control or (y) a sale of the Refinery, TLO either (i) refuses or fails to meet with Customer within the period set forth in Section 28(c), (ii) fails to agree to perform a Capacity Resolution in accordance with the standards set forth in Section 28(c), or (iii) fails to perform its obligations in compliance with the terms of a Capacity Resolution, Customer may, as its sole remedy for any breach by TLO of any of its obligations under Section 28(c), require TLO to complete a Restoration of the Terminal, subject to and to the extent permitted under the terms, conditions and/or restrictions of applicable leases, permits and/or Applicable Law. Any such Restoration required under this Section 28(d) shall be completed by TLO at Customer’s cost. TLO shall use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to provide throughput of Customer’s Products at the Terminal, during the period while such Restoration is being completed. Any work performed by TLO pursuant to this Section 28(d) shall be performed and completed in a good and workmanlike manner consistent with applicable industry standards and in accordance with all Applicable Law. Additionally, during such period after the occurrence of (x) a Partnership Change of Control or (y) a sale of the Refinery, Customer may exercise any remedies available to it under this Agreement (other than termination), including the right to immediately seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief for specific performance by TLO of the applicable provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the obligation to make Restorations as described herein.

29.	TERMINATION

(a) Default. A Party shall be in default under this Agreement if:

(i) the Party breaches any provision of this Agreement, a Terminal Service Order or any of the Related Agreements, which breach has a material adverse effect on the other Party (with such material adverse effect being determined based on this Agreement and all Terminal Service Orders considered as a whole), and such breach is not excused by Force Majeure or cured within fifteen (15) Business Days after notice thereof (which notice shall describe such breach in reasonable detail) is received by such Party (unless such failure is not commercially reasonably capable of being cured in such fifteen (15) Business Day period in which case such Party shall have commenced remedial action to cure such breach and shall continue to diligently and timely pursue the completion of such remedial action after such notice); or

(ii) the Party (A) files a petition or otherwise commences, authorizes or acquiesces in the commencement of a proceeding or cause of action under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar Applicable Law, or has any such petition filed or commenced against it, (B) makes an assignment or any general arrangement for the benefit of creditors, (C) otherwise becomes bankrupt or insolvent (however evidenced) or (D) has a liquidator, administrator, receiver, trustee, conservator or similar official appointed with respect to it or any substantial portion of its property or assets.

(b) Rights upon Default. If either of the Parties is in default as described above, then (A) if Customer is in default, TLO may or (B) if TLO is in default, Customer may: (1) terminate this Agreement upon notice to the defaulting Party; (2) withhold any payments due to the defaulting Party under this Agreement; and/or (3) pursue any other remedy at law or in equity.

(c) Obligation to Cure Breach. If a Party breaches any provision of this Agreement, a Terminal Service Order or a Related Agreement, which breach does not have a material adverse effect on the other Party, the breaching Party shall still have the obligation to cure such breach.

30.	RIGHT TO ENTER INTO A NEW MANIFEST RAIL TERMINALLING AGREEMENT

(a) New Terminalling Services Agreement. Upon termination of this Agreement or a Terminal Service Order for reasons other than (x) a default by Customer and (y) any other termination of this Agreement or a Terminal Service Order initiated by TLO pursuant to Section 29, Customer shall have the right to require TLO to enter into a new manifest rail terminalling services agreement with Customer that (i) is consistent with the terms set forth in this Agreement, (ii) relates to the Terminal, and (iii) has commercial terms that are, in the aggregate, equal to or more favorable to TLO than fair market value terms as would be agreed by similarly-situated parties negotiating at arm’s length; provided, however; that the term of any such new terminalling services agreement shall not extend beyond November 7, 2037.

(b) Terminalling Right of First Refusal. In the event that TLO proposes to enter into a manifest rail terminalling services agreement with a third party for rail services to the Refinery within two (2) years after the termination of this Agreement for reasons other than (x) by default by Customer and (y) any other termination of this Agreement initiated by TLO pursuant to Section 29, TLO shall give Customer ninety (90) days’ prior written notice of any proposed new manifest rail terminalling services agreement with a third party for rail services to the Refinery, including (i) details of all of the material terms and conditions thereof and (ii) a thirty (30)-day period (beginning upon Customer’s receipt of such written notice) (the “Terminalling First Offer Period”) in which Customer may make a good faith offer to enter into a new manifest rail terminalling agreement with TLO for rail services to the Refinery (the “Terminalling Right of First Refusal”). If Customer makes an offer on terms no less favorable to TLO than the third-party offer with respect to such manifest rail terminalling services agreement during the Terminalling First Offer Period, then TLO shall be obligated to enter into a manifest rail

terminalling services agreement with Customer on the terms set forth in Customer’s offer to TLO. If Customer does not exercise its Terminalling Right of First Refusal in the manner set forth above, TLO may, for the next ninety (90) days, proceed with the negotiation of the third-party manifest rail terminalling services agreement. If no third party agreement is consummated during such ninety-day period, the terms and conditions of this Section 30(b) shall again become effective.

31.	ASSIGNMENT; PARTNERSHIP CHANGE OF CONTROL

(a) Assignment to TLO. As of the Commencement Date, the General Partner shall assign all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to the Partnership. The Partnership shall immediately assign its rights and obligations hereunder to TLO. Upon such assignment to TLO, TLO shall have all of the respective rights and obligations set forth herein during the Term of this Agreement.

(b) Customer Assignment to Third Party. Customer shall not assign all of its obligations hereunder or under a Terminal Service Order without TLO’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however; that Customer may assign this Agreement, without TLO’s consent, in connection with a sale by Customer of the Refinery so long as the transferee: (i) agrees to assume all of Customer’s obligations under this Agreement; and (ii) is financially and operationally capable of fulfilling the terms of this Agreement, which determination shall be made by Customer in its reasonable judgment.

(c) TLO Assignment to Third Party. TLO shall not assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement without Customer’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that (i) TLO may assign this Agreement without Customer’s consent in connection with a sale by TLO of the Terminal so long as the transferee: (A) agrees to assume all of TLO’s obligations under this Agreement; (B) is financially and operationally capable of fulfilling the terms of this Agreement, which determination shall be made by TLO in its reasonable judgment; and (C) is not a competitor of Customer; and (ii) TLO shall be permitted to make a collateral assignment of this Agreement solely to secure working capital financing for TLO.

(d) Notification of Assignment. Any assignment that is not undertaken in accordance with the provisions set forth above shall be null and void ab initio. A Party making any assignment shall promptly notify the other Party of such assignment, regardless of whether consent is required. This Agreement and any Terminal Service Orders shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

(e) Partnership Change of Control. Customer’s obligations hereunder shall not terminate in connection with a Partnership Change of Control. TLO shall provide Customer with notice of any Partnership Change of Control at least sixty (60) days prior to the effective date thereof.

(a) Confidential Information and Exceptions Thereto. Each Party shall use reasonable efforts to retain the other Parties’ Confidential Information in confidence and not disclose the same to any third party nor use the same, except as authorized by the disclosing Party in writing or as expressly permitted in this Section 33. Each Party further agrees to take the same care with the other Party’s Confidential Information as it does with its own, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care. Excepted from these obligations of confidence and non-use is that information which:

(i) is available, or becomes available, to the general public without fault of the receiving Party;

(ii) was in the possession of the receiving Party on a non-confidential basis prior to receipt of the same from the disclosing Party (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that this exception shall not apply to information of TLO that was in the possession of Customer or any of its affiliates as a result of their ownership or operation of the Terminal prior to the Commencement Date);

(iii) is obtained by the receiving Party without an obligation of confidence from a third party who is rightfully in possession of such information and, to the receiving Party’s knowledge, is under no obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing Party; or

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

For the purpose of this Section 33, a specific item of Confidential Information shall not be deemed to be within the foregoing exceptions merely because it is embraced by, or underlies, more general information in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party.

(b) Required Disclosure. Notwithstanding Section 33(a) above, if the receiving Party becomes legally compelled to disclose the Confidential Information by a court, Governmental Authority or Applicable Law, or is required to disclose by the listing standards of any applicable securities exchange, any of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, the receiving Party shall promptly advise the disclosing Party of such requirement to disclose Confidential Information as soon as the receiving Party becomes aware that such a requirement to disclose might become effective, in order that, where possible, the disclosing Party may seek a protective order or such other remedy as the disclosing Party may consider appropriate in the circumstances. The receiving Party shall disclose only that portion of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information that it is required to disclose and shall cooperate with the disclosing Party in allowing the disclosing Party to obtain such protective order or other relief.

(c) Return of Confidential Information. Upon written request by the disclosing Party, all of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in whatever form shall be returned to the disclosing Party upon termination of this Agreement or destroyed with destruction certified by the receiving Party, without the receiving Party retaining copies thereof except that one copy of all such Confidential Information may be retained by a Party’s legal department solely to the extent that such Party is required to keep a copy of such Confidential Information pursuant to Applicable Law, and the receiving Party shall be entitled to retain any Confidential Information in the electronic form or stored on automatic computer back-up archiving systems during the period such backup or archived materials are retained under such Party’s customary procedures and policies; provided, however, that any Confidential Information retained by the receiving Party shall be maintained subject to confidentiality pursuant to the terms of this Section 33, and such archived or back-up Confidential Information shall not be accessed except as required by Applicable Law.

(d) Receiving Party Personnel. The receiving Party will limit access to the Confidential Information of the disclosing Party to those of its employees, attorneys and contractors that have a need to know such information in order for the receiving Party to exercise or perform its rights and obligations under this Agreement (the “Receiving Party Personnel”). The Receiving Party Personnel who have access to any Confidential Information of the disclosing Party will be made aware of the confidentiality provision of this Agreement, and will

be required to abide by the terms thereof. Any third party contractors that are given access to Confidential Information of a disclosing Party pursuant to the terms hereof shall be required to sign a written agreement pursuant to which such Receiving Party Personnel agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, which written agreement will expressly state that it is enforceable against such Receiving Party Personnel by the disclosing Party.

(e) Survival. The obligation of confidentiality under this Section 33 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of two (2) years.

34.	MISCELLANEOUS

(a) Termination of Anacortes Mutual Track Use Agreement. That certain Anacortes Mutual Track Use Agreement, dated November 15, 2012, between Customer and TLO is hereby terminated effective as of the Commencement Date.

(b) Amendment of Terminal Service Order. That certain Terminal Service Order Rail Services #2, dated October 1, 2016, between Customer and TLO under that certain Terminalling Services Agreement – Anacortes, dated July 1, 2014, is hereby amended, effective as of the Commencement Date, to delete paragraph (b) thereof regarding switching services.

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

(d) Integration. This Agreement, together with the Schedules and Terminal Service Orders and the other agreements executed on the date hereof in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings of the Parties in connection therewith. In the event of a conflict of provisions of this Agreement and the Omnibus Agreement, the provisions of the Omnibus Agreement shall prevail with respect to issues related to the contribution of the assets described therein, but not with respect to the ordinary operations of such assets as set forth in this Agreement.

(e) Construction and Interpretation. In interpreting this Agreement, unless the context expressly requires otherwise, all of the following apply to the interpretation of this Agreement:

(vii) The headings in this Agreement are included for convenience and do not affect the construction or interpretation of any provision of, or the rights or obligations of a Party under, this Agreement.

(f) Applicable Law; Forum, Venue and Jurisdiction. This Agreement and any Terminal Service Orders shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas without giving effect to its conflict of laws principles. Each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal court of competent jurisdiction situated in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas, San Antonio Division, or if such federal court declines to exercise or does not have jurisdiction, in the district court of Bexar County, Texas.

(h) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement and any Terminal Service Order will be interpreted in such manner as to be valid and effective under Applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement, a Terminal Service Order or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance will be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision hereof, and the Parties will negotiate in good faith with a view to substitute for such provision a suitable and equitable solution in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

(i) No Third Party Rights. Except as specifically provided in Section 23 herein, it is expressly understood that the provisions of this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order do not impart enforceable rights in anyone who is not a Party or successor or permitted assignee of a Party.
