NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and obligations contained herein, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

Section 1.Definitions

Capitalized terms used throughout this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in Annex A.

Section 2. Agreement to Use Services Relating to Pipelines and Tankage.

This Agreement sets forth a commercial arrangement consistent with historical operational practices between the HollyFrontier Entities and the Partnership Entities as well as the objectives of the Parties. The Parties intend to be strictly bound by the terms set forth in this Agreement, which sets forth revenues to the Partnership Entities to be paid by the HollyFrontier Entities and requires the Partnership Entities to provide certain transportation and storage services to the HollyFrontier Entities. The principal objective of the Partnership Entities is for the HollyFrontier Entities to meet or exceed their obligations with respect to the Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment, and to meet their obligations with respect to the Tankage Revenue Commitment and the Roswell Terminal Payment. The principal objective of the HollyFrontier Entities is for the Partnership Entities to provide services to the HollyFrontier Entities in a manner that enables the HollyFrontier Entities to operate their assets in a manner as favorably as their historical practice when the HollyFrontier Entities were the owners of the Drop-Down Assets.

(a) Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment. During the Term and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the HollyFrontier Entities agree as follows:

(i) Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment. Subject to Section 3, the HollyFrontier Entities will ship the Product indicated in the following table, using the Pipeline Asset indicated for such Product, which shipments will, in the aggregate, have the quantity and consistency that will produce the revenue per Contract Year or Contract Quarter indicated in the final column as a result of the tariffs charged to the HollyFrontier Entities under this Agreement (in each case, as may be adjusted pursuant to Section 2(q)(i) and Schedule I attached hereto):



Pipeline Assets	Product	Minimum Revenue to Partnership Entities for Shipments on such Pipeline Assets
Crude Oil Trunk Pipelines	Crude Oil	$13,552,450 per Contract Year (the “Minimum Trunk Pipeline Revenue Commitment”)
Crude Oil Gathering Pipelines and store at the Artesia Crude Oil Pipeline Tankage and the Lovington Crude Oil Pipeline Tankage	Crude Oil	$9,125,000 per Contract Year (the “Minimum Gathering Pipeline Revenue Commitment”)
Xxxxx Cross Pipelines	Crude Oil and Refined Product	$730,000 per Contract Year (the “Minimum Xxxxx Cross Pipeline Revenue Commitment”)
Roswell Products Pipeline	Refined Product	$35,000 per Contract Quarter (the “Minimum Roswell Pipeline Revenue Commitment”)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the end of the Term occurs on any date other than the final day of a Contract Year or Contract Quarter (as applicable), then the Minimum Trunk Pipeline Revenue Commitment, Minimum Gathering Pipeline Revenue Commitment, Minimum Xxxxx Cross Pipeline Revenue Commitment, and Minimum Roswell Pipeline Revenue Commitment for the final Contract Year or Contract Quarter (as applicable) shall each be prorated based upon the number of days actually in such contract year or contract quarter and the final Contract Year or Contract Quarter (as applicable). The amount of the Minimum Trunk Pipeline Revenue Commitment, Minimum Gathering Pipeline Revenue Commitment, Minimum Xxxxx Cross Pipeline Revenue Commitment and Minimum Roswell Pipeline Revenue Commitment applicable to each Contract Quarter shall be calculated by multiplying the annual revenue commitment for each such amount set forth on Schedule I by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be actual number of days in such Contract Quarter and the denominator of which shall be the total number of days in the Contract Year in which such Contract Quarter is included.

(ii) Service Disruption. If the HollyFrontier Entities are unable for a period in excess of thirty (30) consecutive days to transport on any of the Pipeline Assets the respective volumes of Crude Oil and Refined Product required to meet the Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment as a result of the Partnership Entities’ operational difficulties, prorationing, or the inability to provide the following minimum capacities during such thirty (30) day consecutive period:



Pipeline Assets	Minimum Capacity
Crude Oil Trunk Pipelines	79,000 bpd (the “Trunk Pipeline Minimum Capacity”)
Crude Oil Gathering Pipelines (including storage in the Artesia Crude Oil Pipeline Tankage and Lovington Crude Oil Pipeline Tankage, but excluding storage in the Refinery Tankage)	Effective Time until the fifth anniversary of the Effective Time: 50,000 bpd capacity; Commencing on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Time until the tenth anniversary of the Effective Time: 47,500 bpd capacity; and Commencing on the tenth anniversary of the Effective Time until the expiration of the Term: 45,000 bpd capacity (collectively, the “Gathering Pipeline Minimum Capacity”)
Xxxxx Cross Pipelines	8,000 bpd capacity (the “Xxxxx Cross Minimum Capacity”)
Roswell Products Pipeline	a proportionate amount of 36,000 bpq capacity (the “Roswell Pipeline Minimum Capacity”)

then upon written notice by the HollyFrontier Entities to the Partnership Entities (which notice shall be given reasonably promptly after the expiration of such 30 day consecutive period), the Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment, as affected, will be reduced for such period of time by an amount equal to: (A) the volume of Crude Oil or Refined Product that the HollyFrontier Entities were unable to transport on any of the Pipeline Assets, as applicable, as a result of the Partnership Entities’ operational difficulties, prorationing or inability to provide the Trunk Pipeline Minimum Capacity, the Gathering Pipeline Minimum Capacity, the Xxxxx Cross Minimum Capacity or the Roswell Pipeline Minimum Capacity, as applicable, multiplied by (B) the applicable tariffs. This Section 2(a)(ii) shall not apply in the event the Partnership Entities give notice of a Force Majeure event in accordance with Section 3, in which case the HollyFrontier Entities’ Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment shall be suspended in accordance with and as provided in Section 3.

(b) Tariffs and Tankage Fees.

(i) Tariff Rates. The HollyFrontier Entities shall pay to the Partnership Entities the applicable tariff rates (as such tariff rate may be revised pursuant to Section 2(q)(ii)) for making shipments of Crude Oil and/or Refined Product on the Pipeline Assets pursuant to this Agreement, as follows (in each case, as such exhibit may be amended from time-to-time in accordance with this Agreement):

(A) service on the Crude Oil Trunk Pipelines as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto;

(B) service on the Crude Oil Gathering Pipelines as set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto;

(D) service on Roswell Product Pipeline as set forth in Exhibit D attached hereto.

The rules and regulations governing service on the Pipeline Assets shall be as set forth in the applicable rules and regulations tariffs with respect to such service. The Partnership Entities shall have the right to change the tariff rates applicable to the Pipeline Assets in the event that the Partnership Entities incur increased expenses (or lower revenues) or capital costs, as a direct result of a change in the quality and/or consistency of the Crude Oil or Refined Product, as applicable, and to the extent thereof.

(ii) Renegotiation of Tariff Rates. In the event that Crude Oil throughput at the Artesia Refinery and/or the Lovington Refinery exceeds 110,000 bpd or if Crude Oil viscosity exceeds 50 SSU on greater than 10,000 bpd of such Crude Oil throughput at the Artesia Refinery and/or the Lovington Refinery, and the Partnership Entities incur increased expenses (or lower revenues) or capital costs, as a direct result thereof, the Parties will renegotiate the tariff rates in good faith in order to compensate the Partnership Entities on account of such incremental expenses (or lower revenues) or capital costs, which capital costs shall also include a reasonable rate of return. If the HollyFrontier Entities and the Partnership Entities are unable to agree upon renegotiated tariff rates, the renegotiated tariff rates will be determined by binding arbitration in accordance with Section 12(e) of this Agreement.

(iii) Volume Incentive Tariff. The HollyFrontier Entities shall pay to the Partnership Entities a volume incentive tariff of $0.4614 per barrel as of the date hereof to June 30, 2015, as such incentive may be revised pursuant to Section 2(q)(ii) and Schedule II attached hereto (the “Volume Incentive Tariff”) under the then current applicable tariff on volumes greater than the applicable minimum volumes necessary to meet the portion of the Minimum Gathering Pipeline Revenue Commitment to be shipped during a Contract Quarter, which shall be determined and applied on a quarterly basis for purposes of this Section 2(b)(iii).

(c) Tankage Revenue Commitment. During the Term the HollyFrontier Entities shall pay the Partnership Entities throughput fees associated with the Refinery Tankage in the amount of $184,000 per month as such amount may be revised pursuant to Section 2(q)(ii) and Schedule III attached hereto (the “Tankage Revenue Commitment”) in exchange for the Partnership Entities providing to the HollyFrontier Entities 613,333 barrels per month of crude oil storage capacity at the Refinery Tankage.

(d) Roswell Terminal Operating Expenses and Payment. During the Term and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the HollyFrontier Entities shall (i) reimburse all operating expenses incurred by the Partnership Entities in their operation of the Roswell Terminal in an economic and prudent manner, in accordance with the normal and customary practices in the industry and Applicable Laws, and consistent with the historical operation of the Roswell Terminal by the HollyFrontier Entities, and (ii) make annual payment to the Partnership Entities in the amount of $100,000 as such amount may be revised pursuant to Section 2(q)(i) and Schedule IV attached hereto (such annual payment, the “Roswell Terminal Payment”).

(e) Volumetric Gains and Losses. The HollyFrontier Entities shall, during the Term, (i) absorb all volumetric gains in the Crude Oil Trunk Pipelines and Crude Oil Gathering Pipelines, and (ii) be responsible for all volumetric losses in the Crude Oil Trunk Pipelines and the Crude Oil Gathering Pipelines up to a maximum of 0.5%. The Partnership Entities shall be responsible for all volumetric losses in excess of 0.5% in the Crude Oil Trunk Pipelines and Crude Oil Gathering Pipelines during the Term.

(f) Obligations of the Partnership Entities. During the Term and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Section 12(b), the Partnership Entities agree to own or lease, operate and maintain the assets necessary to accept the deliveries from the HollyFrontier Entities and to provide the services required under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, subject to Section 12(b) of this Agreement and Article V of the Omnibus Agreement, the Partnership Entities are free to sell any of their assets, including assets that provide services under this Agreement, and the Partnership or any of the Partnership Entities are free to merge with another entity (whether or not the Partnership or any of the Partnership Entities is the surviving entity in such merger) and are free to sell all of their assets, including assets that provide services under this Agreement, or all of their equity to another entity at any time. The Partnership Entities shall, upon six (6) months’ prior written notice to the HollyFrontier Entities, except in the event of an emergency or in order to comply with Applicable Law, have the right to discontinue operation with respect to any of the Crude Oil Gathering Pipelines in the event that such operation becomes (i) mechanically unreliable or (ii) uneconomical due to a decline in volume. At the request of the HollyFrontier Entities, and subject in each case to any applicable common carrier proration duties, the Partnership Entities agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to transport by pipeline for the HollyFrontier Entities each month during the Term: (i) quantities of Crude Oil equal to the Trunk Pipeline Minimum Capacity on the Crude Oil Trunk Pipelines; (ii) quantities of Crude Oil equal to the Gathering Pipeline Minimum Capacity on the Crude Oil Gathering Pipelines; (iii) quantities of Crude Oil and Refined Product equal to the Xxxxx Cross Minimum Capacity, collectively, on the Xxxxx Cross Pipelines; and (iv) quantities of Refined Product equal to the Roswell Pipeline Minimum Capacity on the Roswell Products Pipeline. To the extent that the HollyFrontier Entities are entitled to an exception under Section 3 to their obligations under Section 2(a), the corresponding obligations of the Partnership Entities under this Section 2(f) will be proportionately reduced.

(g) Drag Reducing Agents and Additives. If the Partnership Entities determine that adding drag reducing agents (“DRA”) and additives to the Crude Oil and Refined Products is reasonably required to move Crude Oil and Refined Product in the quantities necessary to meet the HollyFrontier Entities’ schedule or as may be otherwise be required to safely move such quantities of Crude Oil and Refined Product, the Partnership Entities shall provide the HollyFrontier Entities with an analysis of the proposed cost and benefits thereof. In the event that the HollyFrontier Entities agree to use such additives as proposed by the Partnership Entities, the HollyFrontier Entities shall reimburse the Partnership Entities for the costs of adding any additive, including DRA and/or other additives to the Crude Oil and Refined Product. All fuel additives, anti-icers and DRA (collectively, “Additives”) added to the Crude Oil and Refined Product pursuant to this Section 2(g) will be provided by the HollyFrontier Entities at no cost to the Partnership Entities or, if the Partnership Entities provide Additives, then the HollyFrontier Entities agree to reimburse the Partnership Entities for the costs of the Additives.

(h) Reimbursement for Initial Tank Inspections. The HollyFrontier Entities will, during the period that commences on the Effective Time and ends five (5) years thereafter (the “Initial Tank Inspection Period”), reimburse the Partnership Entities for the actual costs incurred by the Partnership Entities in performing the first regularly scheduled API 653 inspection conducted after the Effective Time of the tanks included within the Tankage Assets (the “Initial Tank Inspections”), and any repairs or tests or consequential remediation that may be required to be made to such Tankage Assets as a result of any discovery made during the Initial Tank Inspections; provided, however, that (i) the HollyFrontier Entities are not obligated to reimburse the Partnership Entities for any costs associated with or arising from any inspection of Relocated Tank 437 or Replacement Tank 439, and (ii) upon expiration of the Initial Tank Inspection Period, all of the obligations of the HollyFrontier Entities pursuant to this Section 2(h) shall terminate, except that the Initial Tank Inspection Period shall be extended if, and only to the extent that (a) inaccessibility of the Tankage Assets during the Initial Tank Inspection Period caused the delay of an Initial Tank Inspection originally scheduled to be performed during the Initial Tank Inspection Period, and (b) the HollyFrontier Entities received notice from the Partnership Entities regarding such delay at the time it occurred.

(i) Taxes. The HollyFrontier Entities will pay all taxes, import duties, license fees and other charges by any Governmental Authority levied on or with respect to the Crude Oil and Refined Product delivered by the HollyFrontier Entities for transportation by the Partnership Entities in the Pipeline Assets including, but not limited to, any New Mexico gross receipts and compensating (use) taxes. The HollyFrontier Entities will reimburse the Partnership Entities for the New Mexico gross receipts tax, but not income tax, levied on or with respect to the transportation services provided by the Partnership Entities to the HollyFrontier Entities under this Agreement. Should any Party be required to pay or collect any taxes, duties, charges and or assessments pursuant to any Applicable Law or authority now in effect or hereafter to become effective which are payable by the any other Party pursuant to this Section 2(i) the proper Party shall promptly reimburse the other Party therefor.

(j) Timing of Payments. The HollyFrontier Entities will make payments to the Partnership Entities by electronic payment with immediately available funds on a monthly basis during the Term with respect to services rendered or reimbursable costs or expenses incurred by the Partnership Entities under this Agreement in the prior month. Payments not received by the Partnership Entities on or prior to the applicable payment date will accrue interest at the Prime Rate from the applicable payment date until paid.

(k) Marketing of Transportation and Storage Services. The Partnership Entities may market transportation and storage services to third parties on the Crude Oil Trunk Pipelines or the Crude Oil Gathering Pipelines, provided that (i) the Partnership Entities provide the HollyFrontier Entities with prior written notice describing the purported transportation and/or storage services to the extent permitted by Applicable Law; and (ii) the HollyFrontier Entities remain satisfied that such transportation and storage services marketed by the Partnership Entities has not negatively affected the HollyFrontier Entities’ ability to utilize the Drop-Down Assets in any material respect and the quality and quantity of the Crude Oil has not been materially degraded or otherwise impaired.

(l) Change in Pipeline Direction; Product Service or Origination and Destination. Without the HollyFrontier Entities’ prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Partnership Entities shall not (i) reverse the direction of any of the Pipeline Assets; (ii) change, alter or modify the product service of any of the Pipeline Assets; or (iii) change, alter or modify the origination or destination of any of the Pipeline Assets; provided, however, that the Partnership Entities may take any necessary emergency action to prevent or remedy a release of Crude Oil or Refined Product, as applicable, from any of the Pipeline Assets without obtaining the consent required by this Section 2(l). The HollyFrontier Entities shall have the right to reverse the direction of any of the Pipeline Assets if the HollyFrontier Entities agree to (i) reimburse the Partnership Entities for the additional costs and expenses incurred by the Partnership Entities as a result of such change in direction (both to reverse and re-reverse); (ii) reimburse the Partnership Entities for all costs arising out of the Partnership Entities’ inability to perform under any transportation service contract due to the reversal of the direction of the Pipeline Assets; and (iii) pay the flow reversal rates as set forth on Exhibit E, as it may be amended from time-to-time in accordance with this Agreement. The tariff rates applicable to any such flow reversal shall be as set forth on Exhibit E and shall be adjusted each year as provided in Section 2(q)(i).

(m) Notification of Utilization. Upon request by the Partnership Entities, the HollyFrontier Entities will provide to the Partnership Entities written notification of the HollyFrontier Entities’ reasonable good faith estimate of their anticipated future utilization of any of the Drop-Down Assets as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving such request.

(n) Scheduling and Accepting Deliveries. The Partnership Entities will use their reasonable commercial efforts to schedule movement and accept deliveries of Crude Oil and Refined Product in a manner that is consistent with the historical dealings between the Parties, as such dealings may change from time to time.

(o) Increases in Pipeline Tariff Rates and Tankage Fees. If new Applicable Laws are enacted that require the Partnership Entities to make capital expenditures with respect to the Drop-Down Assets, the Partnership Entities may amend the tariff rates in order to recover the Partnership Entities’ cost of complying with these Applicable Laws (including a reasonable return). The HollyFrontier Entities and the Partnership Entities shall use their reasonable commercial efforts to comply with these Applicable Laws, and shall negotiate in good faith to mitigate the impact of these Applicable Laws and to determine the amount of the new tariff rates. If the HollyFrontier Entities and the Partnership Entities are unable to agree on the amount of the new tariff rates that the Partnership Entities will charge, such tariff rates will be determined by binding arbitration in accordance with Section 12(e). Exhibit A, Exhibit B, Exhibit C, Exhibit D or any other applicable exhibit or schedule to this Agreement will be updated, amended or revised, as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement to reflect any changes in tariff rates agreed to in accordance with this Section 2(o).

(p) Lease Connection Expenses. The Partnership Entities shall construct and add such new lease connection pipelines to the Crude Oil Gathering Pipelines, as requested by the HollyFrontier Entities; provided, however, that the obligation of the Partnership Entities to construct and add such new lease connection pipelines shall be limited to $250,000 per calendar year from

the Effective Time through the calendar year ending December 31, 2012, and $275,000 per calendar year from the calendar year beginning January 1, 2013 until the end of the Term (the “Lease Connection Expense Cap”). In the event the HollyFrontier Entities request that the Partnership Entities construct new lease connection pipelines in excess of the Lease Connection Expense Cap, then the Partnership Entities will be reimbursed for costs and expenses incurred by them in excess of the Lease Connection Expense Cap as follows:

(i) Incremental Capital and Capital Fee. At the end of each calendar year beginning in 2009 and in each subsequent year, the Partnership Entities will calculate the total lease connection expansion capital spent in the prior calendar year and subtract the Lease Connection Expense Cap (such difference, the “Incremental Capital”); provided, however, that no amounts spent regarding the Devon Lease Connection Pipelines shall be included in calculating Incremental Capital. The Partnership Entities shall use the Incremental Capital to calculate a monthly fee (the “Capital Fee”) to provide the Partnership Entities with a simple 15% return calculated over a seven year period. The Capital Fee shall be charged to the HollyFrontier Entities over a seven year period commencing January 1^st of the year following the calendar year in which such Incremental Capital was incurred by the Partnership Entities. The Capital Fee is in addition to the previous agreed gathering fee set forth on Exhibit B.

(ii) Capital Calculation Notice. The Partnership Entities shall provide the HollyFrontier Entities with written notice of their calculation of the Incremental Capital and the Capital Fee (the “Capital Calculation Notice”), as well as supporting documentation, by no later than 30 days following the end of a calendar year.

(iii) Disagreement over Incremental Capital or Capital Fee. If the HollyFrontier Entities disagree with the Partnership Entities’ calculation of the Incremental Capital or Capital Fee, then the HollyFrontier Entities shall send written notice thereof to the Partnership Entities and a senior officer of HollyFrontier (on behalf of the HollyFrontier Entities) and a senior officer of the Partnership (on behalf of the Partnership Entities) shall meet or communicate by telephone at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary and shall negotiate in good faith to attempt to resolve any differences that they may have with respect to the calculation of the Incremental Capital or the Capital Fee. During the 30-day period following the Partnership Entities’ delivery to the HollyFrontier Entities of the Capital Calculation Notice, the HollyFrontier Entities shall have access to the working papers of the Partnership Entities relating to such calculations. If such differences are not resolved within 30 days following the Partnership Entities’ delivery to the HollyFrontier Entities of the Capital Calculation Notice, the HollyFrontier Entities and the Partnership Entities shall, within forty-five (45) days following the Partnership Entities’ delivery to the HollyFrontier Entities of the Capital Calculation Notice, submit any and all matters which remain in dispute to arbitration in accordance with Section 12(e).

(q) PPI and FERC Oil Pipeline Index Adjustments.

(i) PPI Adjustments.

A. The Minimum Roswell Pipeline Revenue Commitment, the Minimum Trunk Pipeline Revenue Commitment, the Minimum Gathering Pipeline Revenue Commitment, the Minimum Xxxxx Cross Pipeline Revenue Commitment and the Roswell Terminal Payment shall be adjusted on July 1 of each Contract Year commencing on July 1, 2008, by an amount equal to the percentage increase, if any, in the PPI rounded to four decimal places.

B. The change factor shall be calculated as follows: annual PPI index (most current year) less annual PPI index (most current year minus 1) divided by annual PPI index (most current year minus 1). An example for year 2006 change is: [PPI (2005) – PPI (2004)] / PPI (2004) or (155.7 – 148.5) / 148.5 or .0485 or 4.85%. If the PPI index change is negative in a given year then there will be no change in the Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment.

(ii) FERC Oil Pipeline Index Adjustments.

A. The tariff rates specified in Section 2(b)(i) and the Volume Incentive Tariff shall be adjusted on the first day of each Contract Year (commencing on July 1, 2008 in the case of tariff rates and commencing July 1, 2010 in the case of the Volume Incentive Tariff), by an amount equal to the percentage change, if any, between the two (2) immediately preceding calendar years, in the FERC Oil Pipeline Index.

B. The amount of the Tankage Revenue Commitment shall be adjusted upward on the first day of each Contract Year commencing on July 1, 2008, by an amount equal to the percentage change, if any, between the two (2) immediately preceding calendar years, in the FERC Oil Pipeline Index. If the percentage change in the FERC Oil Pipeline Index is negative in a given year then there will be no change in the Tankage Revenue Commitment.

(iii) Replacement Index. If the PPI or the FERC Oil Pipeline Index is no longer published, the HollyFrontier Entities and the Partnership Entities shall negotiate in good faith to agree on a new index that gives comparable protection against inflation or deflation and the same method of adjustment for increases in the new index shall be used to calculate increases in the Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment, tariff rates, the Volume Incentive Tariff, Tankage Revenue Commitment, or Roswell Terminal Payment, as applicable. If the HollyFrontier Entities and the Partnership Entities are unable to agree, a new index will be determined by binding arbitration in accordance with Section 12(e), and the same method of adjustment for increases or decreases in the new index shall be used to calculate increases in the Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment, tariff rates, the Volume Incentive Tariff, Tankage Revenue Commitment, or Roswell Terminal Payment, as applicable.

(r) Amendments to Schedules and Exhibits. To evidence the Parties’ agreement to each adjusted Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment, tariff rate, Volume Incentive Tariff, Tankage Revenue Commitment, or Roswell Terminal Payment, the Parties may, but shall not be required to execute an amended, modified, revised or updated Schedule or Exhibit, as applicable and attach it to this Agreement. Such amended, modified, revised or updated Schedule or Exhibit shall be sequentially numbered (e.g. Schedule I-1, Schedule I-2, etc.), dated and appended as an additional schedule or exhibit to this Agreement and shall replace the prior version of the Schedule or Exhibit in its entirety after its date of effectiveness, except as specified therein.

(s) Crude Oil Trunk Pipelines Volume Measurement. The HollyFrontier Entities will not be charged the tariff rates applicable to services on the Crude Oil Trunk Pipelines for volumes of Crude Oil moved over the 4 inch, 1.2 mile Abo Station to BP Sweet System pipeline (since such volumes of Crude Oil are not ultimately shipped to a HollyFrontier refinery), though such volumes of Crude Oil so shipped may be charged the tariff rates applicable to services on the Crude Oil Gathering Pipelines, as further specified in Section 2(t) below.

(t) Crude Oil Gathering Pipelines Volume Measurements. The HollyFrontier Entities will be charged the tariff applicable to service on the Crude Oil Gathering Pipelines for all volumes (whether shipped by pipeline or truck) of Crude Oil delivered to the following Crude Oil gathering stations:



• Abo	• Monument Sweet
• Artesia	• North Monument
• Barnsdall	• South Monument
• Xxxxxxxx	• Xxxxx
• Xxxxxx	• Xxxxxxx
• Xxxxxx Flats	• Seminole
• Lovington Station 126 - Chevron LACTs	• Wood
• Maljamar Park

Additionally, the measurement points for measuring such volumes shall be as follows (with the stations included or excluded at such measurement points set forth in the parenthetical next to such measurement point):

• Abo

• Artesia (includes Xxxxxx Flats)

• Barnsdall

• Xxxxxx (includes Maljamar Park)

• Monument Sour (includes North Monument and South Monument)

• Monument Sweet

• Xxxxx (includes Xxxxxxxx)

• Xxxxxxx (excludes Xxxxx and Xxxxxxxx volumes already counted at Xxxxx)

• Wood (includes Seminole)

• Lovington Station 126 – Chevron LACTs

The Parties may, by mutual written agreement, amend the lists above to add or remove stations, or to change measurement points.

(u) Xxxxxx to Lovington System Expansion.

(i) HEP Pipeline agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the following expansion projects (the “Xxxxxx to Lovington System Expansion”): (A) the installation of a larger pump at the Xxxxxx station to increase pumping capacity at the Xxxxxx station; and (B) the replacement of 5 miles of existing 8-inch pipeline with 10-inch pipeline beginning at the Xxxxxx station end of the Xxxxxx Pipeline.

(ii) Effective as of the Xxxxxx System Expansion Commencement Date, (A) the HollyFrontier Entities shall pay to the Partnership Entities an extra surcharge of $0.03165 per barrel for making shipments of Crude Oil and service on the Crude Oil Trunk Pipelines (as adjusted pursuant to Section 2(u)(iii) below, the “Surcharge Tariff”) on the first 79,000 bpd, which is added to the tariff rate (as such tariff rate may be revised pursuant to Section 2(q)(ii)) set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto (as such exhibit may be amended from time to time in accordance with this Agreement) and (B) the Minimum Trunk Pipeline Revenue Commitment per Year shall be increased by the amount set forth on Schedule I “Minimum Pipeline Revenue Commitment” attached hereto (as such schedule may be amended from time to time in accordance with this Agreement) listed next to “Xxxxxx System Expansion Commencement Date”.

(iii) In the event that the actual, reasonable and necessary costs, or as otherwise approved by HFRM (the “Actual Construction Costs”), incurred by HEP Pipeline to construct the Xxxxxx to Lovington System Expansion are more or less than $7,500,000 (the “Construction Cost Estimate”), then the Surcharge Tariff shall automatically be increased or decreased, as applicable, by the same percentage by which the Actual Construction Costs exceeded or were less than the Construction Cost Estimate; provided, however, that in no event shall the amount of such overage used to calculate the increase or decrease in the Surcharge Tariff exceed 33 1/3% of the original Surcharge Tariff. For example:

A. If the Actual Construction Cost is $8,250,000 (10% above the Construction Cost Estimate), the Surcharge Tariff would be increased to be $0.034815 (a 10% increase);

B. If the Actual Construction Cost is $6,750,000 (10% below the Construction Cost Estimate), the Surcharge Tariff would be decreased to be $0.028485 (a 10% decrease); or

C. If the Actual Construction Cost is $10,625,250 (41.67% above the Construction Cost Estimate), the Surcharge Tariff would be increased to be $0.04220 per gallon (a 33 1/3% increase).

Section 3. Force Majeure

In the event that any Party is rendered unable, wholly or in part, by a Force Majeure event from performing its obligations under this Agreement, then, upon the delivery of notice and full particulars of the Force Majeure event in writing within a reasonable time after the occurrence of the Force Majeure event relied on (“Force Majeure Notice”), the obligations of the Parties, so far as they are affected by the Force Majeure event, shall be suspended for the duration of any inability so caused. Any suspension of the obligations of the Parties as a result of this Section 3 for a period of more than thirty (30) consecutive days shall extend the Term (to the extent so affected) for a period equivalent to the duration of the inability set forth in the Force Majeure Notice. The HollyFrontier Entities will be required to pay any amounts accrued and due under this Agreement at the time of the Force Majeure event. The cause of the Force Majeure event shall so far as possible be remedied with all reasonable dispatch, except that no Party shall be compelled to resolve any strikes, lockouts or other industrial disputes other than as it shall determine to be in its best interests. In the event a Force Majeure event prevents the Partnership Entities or the HollyFrontier Entities from performing substantially all of their respective obligations under this Agreement for a period of more than one (1) year, this Agreement may be terminated by the Partnership Entities or the HollyFrontier Entities by providing written notice thereof to the other Party.

Section 12. Miscellaneous

(a) Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by the Parties. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by the Party against whom the waiver is sought to be enforced. Any of the exhibits or schedules to this Agreement may be amended, modified, revised or updated by the Parties if each of the Parties executes an amended, modified, revised or updated exhibit or schedule, as applicable, and attaches it to this Agreement. Such amended, modified, revised or updated exhibits or schedules shall be sequentially numbered (e.g. Exhibit X-0, Xxxxxxx X-0, etc.), dated and appended as an additional exhibit or schedule to this Agreement and shall replace the prior exhibit or schedule, as applicable, in its entirety, after its date of effectiveness, except as specified therein. No failure or delay in exercising any right hereunder, and no course of conduct, shall operate as a waiver of any provision of this Agreement. No single or partial exercise of a right hereunder shall preclude further or complete exercise of that right or any other right hereunder.

(b) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the HollyFrontier Entities, the Partnership Entities and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder shall be assigned without the prior written consent of the HollyFrontier Entities (in the case of any assignment by the Partnership Entities) or the Partnership Entities (in the case of any assignment by the HollyFrontier Entities), in each case, such consent is not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that (i) the Partnership Entities may make such an assignment (including a partial pro rata assignment) to an Affiliate of the Partnership Entities without the HollyFrontier Entities’ consent, (ii) the HollyFrontier Entities may make such an assignment (including a pro rata partial assignment) to an Affiliate of the HollyFrontier Entities without the Partnership Entities’ consent, (iii) the HollyFrontier Entities may make a collateral assignment of their rights and obligations hereunder, and (iv) the Partnership Entities may make a collateral assignment of their rights hereunder and/or grant a security interest in their rights and obligations hereunder to a bona fide third party lender or debt holder, or trustee or representative for any of them, without the HollyFrontier Entities’ consent, if such third party lender, debt holder or trustee shall have executed and delivered to the HollyFrontier Entities a non-disturbance agreement in such form as is reasonably satisfactory to the HollyFrontier Entities and such third party lender, debt holder or trustee and HollyFrontier executes an acknowledgement of such collateral assignment in such form as may from time to time be reasonably requested. Any attempt to make an assignment otherwise than as permitted by the foregoing shall be null and void. The Parties agree to require their respective successors, if any, to expressly assume, in a form of agreement reasonably acceptable to the other Parties, their obligations under this Agreement.

(c) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable by a court or regulatory body of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

(d) Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflicts-of-law rule or principle that might refer the construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the laws of another state.

(e) Arbitration Provision. Any and all Arbitrable Disputes must be resolved through the use of binding arbitration using three arbitrators, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, as supplemented to the extent necessary to determine any procedural appeal questions by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code). If there is any inconsistency between this Section 11(e) and the Commercial Arbitration Rules or the Federal Arbitration Act, the terms of this Section 11(e) will control the rights and obligations of the Parties. Arbitration must be initiated within the time limits set forth in this Agreement, or if no such limits apply, then within a reasonable time or the time period allowed by the applicable statute of limitations. Arbitration may be initiated by a Party (“Claimant”) serving written notice on the other Party (“Respondent”) that the Claimant elects to refer the Arbitrable Dispute to binding arbitration. Claimant’s notice initiating binding arbitration must identify the arbitrator Claimant has appointed. The Respondent shall respond to Claimant within thirty (30) days after receipt of Claimant’s notice, identifying the arbitrator Respondent has appointed. If the Respondent fails for any reason to name an arbitrator within the 30-day period, Claimant shall petition the American Arbitration Association for appointment of an arbitrator for Respondent’s account. The two arbitrators so chosen shall select a third arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the second arbitrator has been appointed. The Claimant will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by it, and the Respondent will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by or for it. The costs of petitioning for the appointment of an arbitrator, if any, shall be paid by Respondent. The Claimant and Respondent will each pay one-half of the compensation and expenses of the third arbitrator. All arbitrators must (i) be neutral parties who have never been officers, directors or employees of any of the HollyFrontier Entities, the Partnership Entities or any of their Affiliates and (ii) have not less than seven (7) years’ experience in the petroleum transportation industry. The hearing will be conducted in Dallas, Texas and commence within thirty (30) days after the selection of the third arbitrator. The HollyFrontier Entities, the Partnership Entities and the arbitrators shall proceed diligently and in good faith in order that the award may be made as promptly as possible. Except as provided in the Federal Arbitration Act, the decision of the arbitrators will be binding on and non-appealable by the Parties hereto. The arbitrators shall have no right to grant or award indirect, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages of any kind. The Arbitrable Disputes may be arbitrated in a common proceeding along with disputes under other agreements between the HollyFrontier Entities, the Partnership Entities or their Affiliates to the extent that the issues raised in such disputes are related. Without the written consent of the Parties, no unrelated disputes or third party disputes may be joined to an arbitration pursuant to this Agreement.

(f) Rights of Limited Partners. The provisions of this Agreement are enforceable solely by the Parties, and no limited partner of the Partnership shall have the right, separate and apart from

the Partnership, to enforce any provision of this Agreement or to compel any Party to comply with the terms of this Agreement.

(g) Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and all transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each signatory Party hereto agrees to execute and deliver such additional documents and instruments and to perform such additional acts as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate, carry out and perform all of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement and all such transactions.

(i) No Novation. This Agreement shall be considered an amendment and restatement of the Original Pipelines Agreement, and the Original Pipelines Agreement is hereby ratified, approved and confirmed in every respect. This Agreement is not intended to constitute a novation of the Original Pipelines Agreement and all of the obligations owing by the Parties under the Original Pipelines Agreement shall continue (and from and after the date of this Agreement, as amended hereby).
