If a Party is unable to perform or is delayed in performing, in whole or in part, its obligations under this Agreement, other than the obligation to pay funds when due as a result of an event of Force Majeure at the Berths, then that Party shall promptly notify the other Party of the event of Force Majeure with reasonably full particulars and timing of such event. Such Party also shall promptly notify the other Party when the event of Force Majeure terminates or no longer adversely affects its ability to perform under this Agreement. The obligations of the Party giving notice, so far as they are affected by the event of Force Majeure, shall be suspended during, but not longer than, the continuance of the Force Majeure event. The affected Party must act with commercially reasonable diligence to resume performance, but it shall not be required to expend funds to settle strikes, lockouts or other labor difficulty. A Party’s inability economically to perform its obligations hereunder does not constitute an event of Force Majeure. If Operator is excused from providing services due to an event of Force Majeure, other than any fees that are already due and payable hereunder, any other fees incurred by Customer during the event of Force Majeure shall be excused or proportionately reduced, as appropriate, for so long as Operator’s performance is so excused due to the event of Force Majeure. In the event the Berths or any part thereof is destroyed or damaged to such extent as to make them unusable, then Operator, in its sole discretion, subject to the terms and provisions of the Leases, the Subleases and the Berth 121 Joint Use Agreement, may elect whether or not to repair, replace, or rebuild. An event of Force Majeure shall not extend the term of this Agreement. If an event of Force Majeure materially affects either Party’s performance under this Agreement and exists with respect to a Marine Terminal for twelve (12) Months, then either Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement with respect to such affected Marine Terminal without further costs or obligation to the other Party.

Operator shall be permitted to make a collateral assignment of this Agreement solely to secure working capital financing for Operator.

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.

(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 Operator that was in the possession of Customer or any of its affiliates as a result of their ownership or operation of the Marine Terminals prior to the applicable Commencement Date);

(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 26, 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 26(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 26, 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.

It is understood that per Operator’s lease or sublease agreement with the City, that Operator does not maintain the berthing depth; however, Operator shall ensure that Customer and any of Customer’s accepted Marine Vessels are immediately notified of any changes in water depth that affect the stated draft maximum at mean lower low water as set forth in an applicable Terminal Service Order.

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; provided that this limitation shall not prevent a party from joining the other party in an action in another forum involving the POLB and/or the City. The Parties expressly and irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of said courts and irrevocably waive any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this agreement brought in such courts, irrevocably waive any claim that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum and further irrevocably waive the right to object, with respect to such claim, action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court, that such court does not have jurisdiction over such Party. The Parties hereby irrevocably consent to the service of process by registered mail, postage prepaid, or by personal service within or without the State of Texas. Nothing contained herein shall affect the right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.

(e) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including by facsimile or portable document format (pdf)) for the convenience of the Parties hereto, each of which counterparts will be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts together will constitute one and the same agreement.

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

(g) Independent Contractor. Operator’s relationship to Customer hereunder shall be that of an independent contractor. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to make Operator or any of its employees, an agent, associate, joint venturer or partner of Customer.

(h) No Public Use. Operator’s services hereunder shall not be deemed those of a public utility or common carrier. If any action is taken or threatened to declare these services a public use, then, upon notifying Customer, Operator may restructure and restate this Agreement.

(i) No Bonded Services. Operator is not providing a U.S. Customs bonded warehouse service.

(j) No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly set forth herein, including as set forth in Sections 18 and 19, it is expressly understood that the provisions of this Agreement do not impart enforceable rights in anyone who is not a Party or successor or permitted assignee of a Party.

(k) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDINGS RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY PERFORMANCE OR FAILURE TO PERFORM OF ANY OBLIGATION HEREUNDER.
