SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE
Exhibit 4.4
Second Supplemental Indenture (this “Second Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of
June 4, 2010, among HEP Operations LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Guaranteeing
Subsidiary”), Xxxxx Energy Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Xxxxx Energy
Partners”), and Xxxxx Energy Finance Corp. (“Finance Corp.” and, together with Xxxxx Energy
Partners, the “Issuers”), the other Guarantors (as defined in the Indenture referred to herein) and
U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee under the Indenture referred to below (the “Trustee”).
W I T N E S S E T H
WHEREAS, the Issuers have heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an Indenture (the
“Indenture”), dated as of March 10, 2010 providing for the issuance of 8.25% Senior Notes due 2018
(the “Notes”), and a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 14, 2010, providing for the
addition of Xxxxx Energy Storage-Tulsa LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and Xxxxx Energy
Storage-Lovington LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as Guarantors under the Indenture;
WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the Guaranteeing Subsidiary
shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the
Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Issuers’ Obligations under the
Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein (the “Note Guarantee”); and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and
deliver this Second Supplemental Indenture.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the
Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes
as follows:
1. Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have
the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
2. Agreement to Guarantee. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees to provide an
unconditional Guarantee on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Note Guarantee
and in the Indenture including but not limited to Article 10 thereof.
4. No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future director, officer,
employee, incorporator, stockholder or agent of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, as such, shall have
any liability for any obligations of the Issuers or any Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Notes,
any Note Guarantee, the Indenture or this Second Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on,
in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the Notes by
accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the
consideration for issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities
under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the SEC that such a waiver is against
public policy.
5. NEW YORK LAW TO GOVERN. THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO
CONSTRUE THIS SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE.
6. Counterparts. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Second
Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent
the same agreement.
7. Effect of Headings. The Section headings herein are for convenience only and
shall not affect the construction hereof.
8. The Trustee. The Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for or
in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Second Supplemental Indenture or for or in
respect of the recitals contained herein, all of which recitals are made solely by the Guaranteeing
Subsidiary and the Issuers.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Second Supplemental Indenture to be
duly executed and attested, all as of the date first above written.
