Modification
of Employment Terms; Termination of
Employment.
|
(a) Effective
as of December 1, 2009 (the “Consultant Start Date”), Foxx has been removed from
any and all officer positions he has held with BKEP, the MLP, the General
Partner and any affiliates. Such termination shall be deemed for the
purposes of the Employment Agreement to be a termination without Cause under
Section 6.C. of the Employment Agreement and the provisions of Sections 6.B. and
6.C. shall apply, subject to the provisions of this Agreement. As of
December 1, 2009, Foxx shall remain employed by BKEP as a Consultant for Crude
Oil Operations with BKEP in accordance with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement. As of the Consultant Start Date, Foxx and BKEP agree as
follows:
(i) In his
capacity as Consultant for Crude Oil Operations, Foxx shall perform such
transitional duties in connection with operational matters of BKEP as Foxx has
traditionally performed as Chief Executive Officer of BKEP, as may be directed
by the Board, the President, or other appropriate officer of the General
Partner;
(ii) In
consideration of the consulting services to be performed by him hereunder, Foxx
shall receive thirty-seven thousand five hundred dollars ($37,500) per month
during the period beginning on the Consultant Start Date and ending on the
Separation Date (as defined in Section 1(b));
(iii) Foxx
shall continue to be entitled to benefits as specified in Section 4.D. of the
Employment Agreement in a manner consistent with the benefits Foxx is receiving
immediately prior to the Consultant Start Date, as may be modified for similarly
situated executives of BKEP;
(iv) Foxx
shall be entitled to a payment of $270,000 in accordance with the SemGroup
Energy Partners G.P., L.L.C. 2009 Executive Cash Bonus Plan (the “Cash Bonus
Plan”), payable no later than December 10, 2009, and Foxx shall have no further
right to additional payments under the Cash Bonus Plan;
(v) Foxx
shall not be entitled to any additional incentive compensation or performance
bonus payments;
(vi) Foxx
shall remain subject to the Policy on the Prevention of Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx and
Misuse of Confidential Information of Semgroup Energy Partners, L.P;
and
(vii) The
continued employment contemplated by this Agreement may be terminated by either
party hereto upon 5 days written notice to the other party.
(b) Effective
as of February 28, 2010 (the “Separation Date”), Foxx’s employment as a
Consultant for Crude Oil Operations shall terminate without the need for further
action by the Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Foxx’s
employment terminates prior to the Separation Date pursuant to Section
1(a)(vii), such earlier termination date shall be considered the “Separation
Date.”
(c) At any
time following the Consultant Start Date and prior to the Separation Date, Foxx
may retrieve (or caused to be retrieved), and BKEP shall reasonably cooperate
with Foxx in facilitating the retrieval of, the following items of furniture,
artwork and personal belongings in Foxx’s former BKEP Tulsa and Houston
offices:
Houston: sofa,
coffee table, four chairs, armoire, desk, desk chair, four art pieces, work
table, stools, personal pictures, desk accessories and such other office
knick-knacks owned by Foxx; and

accessories and such other office knick-knacks owned by Foxx.

Separation
Benefits.
|
In accordance
with Section 6.C. of the Employment Agreement and in consideration of Foxx’s
execution (without revocation) of this Agreement and his release of claims as
provided in this Agreement, BKEP agrees to provide Foxx with the following
payments and benefits, less all required withholding and other authorized
deductions, on the next day following the Waiver Effective Date (as defined in
Section 17):
(a) The sum
of $900,000, which is an amount equal to 24 months of Foxx’s Base
Salary.
(b) Continued
participation in all group health plans (medical, dental and vision), if any, of
BKEP, until the first anniversary of the Separation Date, as if there has been
no termination of employment. Foxx’s right to continued coverage
under BKEP’s group health plans pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”) will commence after the first anniversary
of the Separation Date.
3.

Payment
of Accrued Benefits and Reimbursements Through Separation
Date.
|
(a) Within 10
days of the Separation Date, in accordance with Section 6.A. of the Employment
Agreement, Foxx shall be entitled to Foxx’s Base Salary which has accrued for
services performed through the Separation Date but which has not yet been paid,
less all required withholding and authorized deductions, through the Separation
Date.
(b) Within 30
days of the Separation Date, in accordance with Section 4.D(2) of the Employment
Agreement, all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Foxx in the course
of performance of his duties under the Employment Agreement on or before the
Separation Date, provided that Foxx submits a written request (following BKEP’s
standard business procedure) on or before 10 business days following the
Separation Date. If Foxx fails to timely submit a request for
