-------------

proportion, for, against and in abstention, to the votes of the other
shareholders present at such meeting, if the vote relates to a matter on which
the interest of Union and the interests of the other shareholders are reasonably
similar. If any Person solicits written consent for action from shareholders of
Tosco, Union shall deliver to the Person soliciting such consent, a written

offerings of Tosco common stock.
(d) Sale or Disposition of Common Stock. Tosco acknowledges that Union may
-----------------------------------
dispose of Common Stock in one or more of several methods, including but not
limited to: (i) a registered offering of Common Stock or Derivative Securities;
(ii) an offering of Common Stock or Derivative Securities under Rule 144A of the
Securities Act; (iii) an offering of Common Stock or Derivative Securities under
Regulation S of the Securities Act; or (iv) a distribution of Common Stock to

beneficial in order to assist Union in selling or disposing of the Common Stock,
including the following:
(i) If Union has sold Common Stock or Derivative Securities in
reliance on a private placement exemption, Tosco agrees that it will not solicit
any offer to buy or offer to sell the Common Stock by means of any form of

the Securities Act) or in any manner involving a public offering within the
meaning of 4(2) of the Securities Act ;

respect to the Common Stock within the meaning of Regulation S under the

complied and will comply with the offering restrictions requirement of

(iii) If Union sells Derivative Securities in a transaction
exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act, then
during the three year period following the last closing date of a sale by Union,
Tosco shall make available, if it is not then subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Exchange Act, upon request, to any seller of the Common Stock or Derivative
Securities, the information concerning Tosco specified in Rule 144A(d)(4) under
the Securities Act, (so long as such requirement is necessary in order to permit
holders of the Common Stock or Derivative Securities to effect resales under
Rule 144A); and
(iv) Tosco shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to
buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in the
Securities Act) which could be integrated with the sale of the Common Stock or
any Derivative Security in a manner which would require the registration of the
Common Stock or any Derivative Security under the Securities Act.
(e) Standstill Provision. Tosco shall not acquire any common stock of
--------------------
Unocal Corporation, a Delaware corporation and holder of all of the outstanding
stock of Union ("Unocal"), or securities convertible into common stock of Unocal
nor shall Tosco propose to Unocal or any Person any acquisition transaction
(excluding transactions in the ordinary course of business of the type
previously conducted by Union and Tosco) between Unocal and Tosco and/or their
security holders involving any of their respective securities or assets unless
Union shall have requested in writing that Tosco make such a proposal.
(f) Conflict with Articles or Bylaws. Tosco agrees that if any term or
--------------------------------
provision of this Agreement is inconsistent or in conflict with the terms and
provisions of its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, as may be amended from
time to time, Tosco shall abide by the terms and provisions hereof and, if
necessary, to the extent within its control, cause the conflicting provisions in
the Articles or Bylaws to be amended accordingly.
6
6. Grant of Registration Rights.
----------------------------
(a) Union is entitled to demand registration of Common Stock for
aggregate proceeds of a minimum of $200 million per demand, except if Union
possesses less than a $200 million value of Common Stock in which case Union may
demand registration of its remaining balance of Common Stock, but, in any event,
Union is entitled to not less than two demand registrations. Notwithstanding the
foregoing:
(i) If Tosco shall furnish to Union, upon Union's request for a
demand registration, a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board of Tosco
stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, it would be
seriously detrimental to an equity or debt offering by Tosco or any other
corporate transaction by Tosco, in either case for which Tosco had made
substantial preparation before the date of receipt of Union's request for
registration pursuant to this Section and it is therefore essential to defer the
filing of such registration statement, Tosco shall have the right to defer such
filing for the minimum period of time necessary to eliminate the detriment to
Tosco, provided however that each such deferral shall not exceed a period of
more than ninety (90) days and all such deferrals in any twelve (12) month
period shall not exceed one hundred and twenty (120) days; and
(ii) Tosco shall not be required to make a registration statement
effective with the SEC pursuant to a demand registration by Union within one
hundred and eighty (180) days of the effective date of the registration
statement relating to a previous demand.
(b) If Tosco proposes to file any registration relating to a public
equity offering solely for cash, Tosco shall, at such time, promptly give Union
written notice of such registration. Upon the written request of Union given
within twenty (20) days after mailing of such notice by Tosco, Tosco shall cause
to be registered under the Securities Act all of the Common Stock that Union has
requested to be registered unless the registration statement relates to a firm
commitment underwriting arrangement. In that case, Tosco shall consult with the
managing underwriters and Union and shall use its best efforts to include the
shares of Common Stock requested to be registered by Union.
7. Mechanical Provisions. (a) Whenever required to effect the registration
---------------------
of any Common Stock, Tosco shall:
(i) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement, as
expeditiously as reasonably possible, and in any case within twenty (20) days,
with respect to such Common Stock and use its best efforts to cause such
registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of Union, keep
such registration statement effective for up to ninety (90) days, unless in the
reasonable opinion of counsel to Union, some longer period is necessary to
effect the method of distribution of the Common Stock or Derivative Securities
selected by Union;
7
(ii) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all
securities covered by such registration statement;
(iii) Furnish to Union such numbers of copies of a prospectus,
including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order
to facilitate the disposition of Common Stock owned by them;
(iv) Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities
covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky
laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by Union, provided
that Tosco shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition
thereto to qualify to do business or, except as required under the Securities
Act, to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or
jurisdictions;
(v) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into
and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and
customary form including indemnity obligations, with the managing underwriter of
such offering. Union shall also enter into and perform its obligations under
such an agreement;
(vi) Notify Union at any time when a prospectus relating thereto
is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any
event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration
statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or
omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances
then existing;
(vii) Cause all Common Stock registered pursuant hereunder to be
listed on each securities exchange or automated quotation system on which
similar securities issued by Tosco are then listed; and
(viii) If the method of distribution selected by Union is an
underwritten public offering, and if the managing underwriter determines that a
roadshow would be beneficial to the success of the offering, prepare a roadshow
presentation and make those executive officers selected by the managing
underwriter available for meetings with investors and analysts in locations
selected by the managing underwriter.
(b) Union will make such information available to Tosco concerning the
76 Assets as is necessary in the opinion of counsel to Tosco to complete the
registration in compliance with the Securities Act.
8
8. Indemnification; Contribution. In the event the sale or distribution of
------------------------------
any shares of Common Stock by Union are included in a registration statement
filed by Tosco:
(a) Tosco agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Union, its directors,
officers and each person, if any, who controls Union within the meaning of
either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from
and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including,
without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by Union or
any such controlling person in connection with defending or investigating any
such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact contained in the registration statement or any amendment
thereof, any preliminary prospectus or the final prospectus (as amended or
supplemented if Tosco shall have furnished any amendments or supplements
thereto), or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged
untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to Union furnished
to Tosco in writing by Union expressly for use therein.
(b) Union agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Tosco, its directors,
its officers who sign the registration statement and each person, if any, who
controls Tosco within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or
Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity
from Tosco to Union, but only with reference to information relating to Union
furnished to Tosco in writing by Union expressly for use in the registration
statement (including any preliminary prospectus, the final prospectus or any
amendments or supplements thereto).
(c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation)
shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be
sought pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8, such person
(the "indemnified party") shall promptly notify the person against whom such
indemnity may be sought (the "indemnifying party") in writing and the
indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified
party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and
shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding.
In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its
own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense
of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified
party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the
named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include
both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both
parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential
differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party
shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in
connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction,
be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition
to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees
9
and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be
designated in writing by Union, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to
paragraph (a) above, and by Tosco in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to
paragraph (b) above. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any
settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if
settled with such consent or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff, the
indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against
any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding
the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested
an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses
of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph,
the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any
proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is
entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the
aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the
indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such
settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of
the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened
proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a
party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party,
unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified
party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such
proceeding.
(d) To the extent the indemnification provided for in paragraph (a) or
(b) of this Section 8 is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in
respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then
each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such
indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by
such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault
of Tosco on the one hand and of Union on the other hand in connection with the
statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The
relative fault of Tosco on the one hand and Union on the other hand shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state
a material fact relates to information supplied by Tosco or by Union and the
parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to
correct or prevent such statement or omission.
(e) The obligations of Tosco and Union under this Section shall
survive the completion of any offering of Common Stock in a registration
statement under this Section, and otherwise.
9. Underwriting Expenses. Union shall bear and pay all third-party,
----------------------
out-of-pocket costs of the underwriting incurred by Tosco in the case of a
registration statement filed pursuant to Section 6(a), if those costs are
incurred in the same manner as Tosco would incur in an underwritten transaction
on its own behalf. Tosco shall be responsible for the expenses of the
10
underwriting in the case of a registration statement filed pursuant to Section
6(b) other than those additional expenses (such as the additional registration
fee) that are incurred as a result of the inclusion of Common Stock. In advance
of filing a registration statement pursuant to Section 6(a), however, Tosco
shall present a good faith estimate to Union and shall meet and confer with
Union regarding the expenses to be incurred. In all cases, Union shall be
responsible for the underwriting discount and commission on the Common Stock
sold by Union.
10. Termination.
-----------
(a) The Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and
effect as to each particular share of Common Stock, and the legend specified in
Section 3(c)(ii) shall be removed from any certificate evidencing such share,
immediately upon the earliest to occur of the following events: (i) the sale or
transfer by Union of such Common Stock to any Person or Persons, other than to a
Person that is an Affiliate of Union or (ii) January 15, 2007;
(b) The Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and
effect as to Union immediately upon the earliest to occur of the following
events: (i) the sale or transfer by Union of that amount of Common Stock which
causes Union to own less than 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or
(ii) January 15, 2007;
(c) Upon Termination of this Agreement as to Union or as to any
particular share of Common Stock, the legends defined in Section 3(c) of this
Agreement shall be removed from those shares which are no longer subject to this
Agreement;
(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 10(a) or (b) above, the
registration rights granted in Section 6 of this Agreement shall terminate when
all of the Common Stock could be sold under Rule 144 (or successor rule) without
any volume limitations.
11. Agreement to Perform Necessary Acts. Union and Tosco shall do any and
------------------------------------
all things, take any and all actions, perform any further acts and execute and
deliver any further documents that may be reasonably necessary, whether under
any applicable law, the Articles and Bylaws of Tosco or otherwise, to carry out
and effectuate the provisions of this Agreement;
12. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under
-------------
the laws of the State of New York.

Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings with respect
thereto.
11
14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
------------
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

--------------------
enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be
entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and necessary disbursements in
addition to any other relief to which such party may be entitled.

holders of at least a majority of the Common Stock. Any amendment or waiver
effected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon each holder of
Common Stock and Tosco. In the event that an underwriting agreement is entered
into between Tosco and any holder of Common Stock, and such underwriting
agreement contains terms differing from this Agreement as to any such holder,

21. Business Days. If any date set forth herein as the final date (for
--------------
purposes of payment, notice or otherwise) is not a Business Day, then such final
date shall be deemed to be the next succeeding Business Day. Time is of the
essence under this Agreement.
