(b) If, as a result of mistake or oversight, any asset or Contract reasonably necessary to the conduct of the Marathon Petroleum Business is not transferred to the applicable Marathon Petroleum Party, or any asset or Contract reasonably necessary to the conduct of the Marathon Oil Business is not transferred to the applicable Marathon Oil Party or is transferred to any Marathon Petroleum Party, the Parties intend that such asset or Contract shall be transferred to the Party which requires such asset or Contract for the conduct of its business without the payment of any additional consideration, and Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum shall negotiate in good faith after the Distribution to determine whether, notwithstanding such intent, such asset or Contract should not be transferred to a Marathon Petroleum Party or to a Marathon Oil Party, as the case may be, and/or the terms and conditions upon which such asset or Contract shall be made available to a Marathon Petroleum Party or to a Marathon Oil Party, as the case may be. Unless expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement or any Operating Agreement, if, as a result of mistake or oversight, any Marathon Petroleum Liability is retained or assumed by any Marathon Oil Party, or any Marathon Oil Liability is retained or assumed by any Marathon Petroleum Party, the Parties intend that such Liability shall be transferred to the Party with respect to which such Liability relates without the payment of any additional consideration, and Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum shall negotiate in good faith after the Distribution to determine whether, notwithstanding such intent, such Liability should not be transferred to a Marathon Petroleum Party or a Marathon Oil Party, as the case may be, and/or the terms and conditions upon which any such Liability shall be transferred. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.3(b), no Marathon Oil Party or Marathon Petroleum Party shall be obligated under this Section 7.3(b) to pay any consideration (other than de minimis filing or transaction fees), grant any concession or incur any Liability to any Third Party other than the Liability to be transferred.

Each Party shall cooperate with the other Party and use its commercially reasonable efforts to set up procedures and notifications as are reasonably necessary or advisable to effectuate the transfers contemplated by this Section 7.4.

(b) (i) Marathon Oil agrees that, at all times from and after the Effective Time, if an Action relating primarily to the Marathon Oil Business is commenced by a Third Party naming both one or more Marathon Oil Parties and one or more Marathon Petroleum Parties as defendants thereto, then Marathon Oil shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Marathon Petroleum Parties to be removed from such Action; provided that if Marathon Oil is unable to cause such Marathon Petroleum Parties to be removed from such Action, Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum shall cooperate and consult to the extent necessary or advisable with respect to such Action.

(ii) Marathon Petroleum agrees that, at all times from and after the Effective Time, if an Action relating primarily to the Marathon Petroleum Business is commenced by a Third Party naming both one or more Marathon Oil Parties and one or more Marathon Petroleum Parties as defendants thereto, then Marathon Petroleum shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Marathon Oil Parties to be removed from such Action; provided that if Marathon Petroleum is unable to cause such Marathon Oil Parties to be removed from such Action, Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum shall cooperate and consult to the extent necessary or advisable with respect to such Action.

(iii) Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum agree that, at all times from and after the Effective Time, if an Action which does not relate primarily to the Marathon Petroleum Business or the Marathon Oil Business is commenced by a Third Party naming both one or more Marathon Oil Parties and one or more Marathon Petroleum Parties as defendants thereto, then Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum shall cooperate and consult to the extent necessary or advisable with respect to such Action.

(iv) Marathon Petroleum agrees that, at all times from and after the Effective Time, if a Toxic Tort Claim is commenced by a Third Party naming one or more Marathon Oil Parties as defendants thereto but the Toxic Tort Claim does not specifically allege exposure related to the Marathon Oil Business, then the Marathon Petroleum Parties shall, except as otherwise expressly provided in Article XI, assume and thereafter be responsible for all Liabilities that may result from the Toxic Tort Claim; provided, however, that if the Third Party claimant subsequently specifically alleges that the Toxic Tort Claim arises out of exposure related to the Marathon Oil Business, the Marathon Oil Parties shall, except as otherwise expressly provided in Article XI, assume and thereafter be responsible for all Liabilities that may result from the Toxic Tort Claim and reimburse the Marathon Petroleum Parties for their Expenses previously incurred in handling the Toxic Tort Claim; provided further, that, if the claimant alleges at any time that the Toxic Tort Claim arises out of exposure related to both the Marathon Oil Business and the Marathon Petroleum Business, the claim shall be handled in accordance with Section 7.7(b)(iii).

SECTION 7.8 Signs; Use of Company Name.

(a) Except as provided in the Operating Agreements, within one year after the Distribution Date, at their expense, the Marathon Petroleum Parties shall remove any and all exterior and interior commercial signs and similar identifiers on assets or properties owned or held by them that refer or pertain specifically to any Marathon Oil Party or the Marathon Oil Business. Except as provided in the Operating Agreements, within one year after the Distribution Date, at their expense, the Marathon Oil Parties shall remove any and all exterior and interior commercial signs and similar identifiers on assets or properties owned or held by them that refer or pertain specifically to any Marathon Petroleum Party or the Marathon Petroleum Business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum shall use commercially reasonable efforts to change all such references to the other Party as soon as practicable following the Distribution Date. Marathon Petroleum hereby grants to the Marathon Oil Parties, and Marathon Oil hereby grants to the Marathon Petroleum Parties, for a period of one year following the Distribution Date, a worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license to use signs and identifiers that refer or pertain specifically to the other Party on the assets or properties used in the licensee’s respective businesses as of the Effective Time.

(b) Except as provided in the Operating Agreements and in Section 7.8(d), after one year following the Distribution Date, (i) without the prior written consent of Marathon Oil, the Marathon Petroleum Parties shall not use or display any of the Marathon Oil Marks and (ii) without the prior written consent of Marathon Petroleum, the Marathon Oil Parties shall not use or display any of the Marathon Petroleum Marks; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement will prevent any Party from using the other’s name in filings with Governmental Authorities, materials intended for distribution to such Party’s stockholders or any other communication (including correspondence) in any medium that describes the current or former relationship between the Parties; provided, further, that the continuation of references to such Marks in telephone directories (and other similar Third Party or incidental uses which are not capable of being updated within the time period set forth above) will not breach this Section 7.8.

(c) The Parties agree that the names “Marathon Oil” and “Marathon Petroleum” are not variations of or confusingly similar with one another as between the Marathon Oil Business and the Marathon Petroleum Business as of the Effective Time. Each Party agrees that, if any authority that grants or registers either Marathon Oil Marks or corporation names or Marathon Petroleum Marks or corporation names objects to the registration of, or a court or arbitration panel questions or declines to enforce, a xxxx by a Party on the basis of similarity between the names “Marathon Oil” and “Marathon Petroleum,” so long as the Party attempting to register or enforce is not in violation of this Section 7.8 and is not using the xxxx within the scope of the other Party’s Business, the other Party shall offer commercially reasonable assistance in assuring the authority, court or panel that the proposed usage is not sufficiently similar to negate registration or enforcement.

(d) Any rights of any Marathon Oil Party to any Xxxx, other than for upstream oil and gas goods or services, that uses the letter M within a hexagon, is part of the Transferred Assets, and all rights thereto are hereby assigned to Marathon Petroleum. The Marathon Oil Parties hereby reserve and retain the right to use a xxxx with the letter M within a hexagon in commercial, upstream use at one location in each country but, after one year following the Distribution Date, shall not use such xxxx at more than one location in any country; provided, however, that continued Third-Party or incidental uses which are not capable of being updated within the time period set forth above will not breach the provisions of this Section 7.8. Marathon Petroleum shall not use, register, or attempt to register a xxxx that uses the letter M within a hexagon for any upstream oil and gas goods or services, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein.

(e) Each Party shall use the Marks of the other Party as allowed hereunder only in connection with goods or services that are of a level of quality at least equal to the quality of comparable goods or services marketed by that Party before the Effective Time and that it will allow the Party owning the right to such Marks reasonable inspection rights, upon reasonable written notice, to ensure compliance with the foregoing.

(f) Should a Party cease to use for 12 months, in any country, a Xxxx which such Party owns and which uses the name “Marathon” or the letter M within a hexagon, such Party hereby does (and shall execute, upon the other Party’s written request, such other documentation as may be reasonably necessary to) assign such Xxxx in such country to the other Party. This obligation applies regardless of the reason for cessation, whether because of acquisition, insolvency or otherwise. The assignee shall pay to the assignor as consideration the cost of maintaining such xxxx for the shortest period of protection in the relevant country.

(g) A Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to inform the other Party if the first Party becomes aware of a Third Party infringing the second Party’s xxxx which uses the name “Marathon” or the letter M within a hexagon. Each Party shall use reasonable efforts to enforce its marks which use the name “Marathon” or the letter M within a hexagon so as to avoid dilution of the other Party’s marks.

(h) Marathon Oil is and will remain the registrant and owner of the domain name “XXXXXXXX.XXX”. Marathon Oil will have the right to designate the administrative, technical and billing contacts for the domain name, to change registrars, and to change the

registrar’s records. Subject to the following provisions of this Section 7.8(h), for a period of five years following the Effective Time, Marathon Oil shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a default file at this domain (named “index.html”), the primary purpose of which will be to re-direct persons accessing XXXXXXXX.XXX to the primary domain for Marathon Petroleum and the primary domain for Marathon Oil. Such re-direction will be the only use for XXXXXXXX.XXX other than primarily administrative functions (such as terms of use, privacy statements, copyright statements, and contact information) that may be appropriate according to law or industry practice. Neither Party’s primary domain will be XXXXXXXX.XXX. Neither Party will use or permit use of XXXXXXXX.XXX in an email address or other than as set forth herein. Marathon Petroleum hereby grants to Marathon Oil a limited, royalty-free license to use the trade names and trademarks of Marathon Petroleum as part of its maintenance of the domain name XXXXXXXX.XXX , pursuant to Marathon Petroleum’s reasonable guidelines and for the sole purpose of providing such re-direction. If Marathon Oil and its Affiliates, successors and assigns stop using “Marathon” in or as a registered trade name, trademark or service xxxx for a period of 12 consecutive months, Marathon Oil shall transfer the domain name to Marathon Petroleum for no more consideration than the reasonable expenses of such transfer and, upon such transfer, Marathon Petroleum will have an unrestricted right to use, sell, license, or assign the domain name “XXXXXXXX.XXX” at the sole discretion of Marathon Petroleum and this paragraph will otherwise cease to be effective. If Marathon Petroleum and its Affiliates, successors and assigns stop using “Marathon” in or as a registered trade name, trademark or service xxxx for a period of 12 consecutive months, Marathon Oil will have an unrestricted right to use, sell, license, or assign the domain name “XXXXXXXX.XXX” at the sole discretion of Marathon Oil and this paragraph will otherwise cease to be effective. If, at any time after the Effective Time, Marathon Oil and its Affiliates, successors and assigns discontinue the use of the domain name, XXXXXXXX.XXX (other than as a result of an Internet service interruption or other temporary condition or set of circumstances), then Marathon Oil shall, if requested by Marathon Petroleum in accordance with Section 14.9 within 90 days of such discontinuance, transfer the domain name to Marathon Petroleum for no more consideration than the reasonable expenses of such transfer and, upon such transfer, Marathon Petroleum will have an unrestricted right to use, sell, license, or assign the domain name “XXXXXXXX.XXX” at the sole discretion of Marathon Petroleum and this paragraph will otherwise cease to be effective.

(i) Marathon Oil is and will remain the owner of each of the domain names and Twitter accounts listed on Schedule 7.8(A), and Marathon Petroleum hereby transfers, and agrees to cause each of the other Marathon Petroleum Parties to transfer, to Marathon Oil (or to such other Marathon Oil Parties as Marathon Oil may designate) all of the respective rights, titles and interests of the Marathon Petroleum Parties in and to such domain names and accounts, effective as of the Effective Time. Marathon Petroleum is and will remain the owner of each of the domain names listed on Schedule 7.8(B), and Marathon Oil hereby transfers, and agrees to cause each of the other Marathon Oil Parties to transfer, to Marathon Petroleum (or to such other Marathon Petroleum Parties as Marathon Petroleum may designate) all of the respective rights, titles and interests of the Marathon Oil Parties in and to such domain names, effective as of the Effective Time.

(j) Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 3.4, as of the Effective Time, the Trademark License Agreement dated as of January 1, 1998 between Marathon Oil Company and Marathon Ashland Petroleum LLC shall be terminated.

SECTION 7.9 Stock Options Registration Statement. Marathon Petroleum shall prepare and, if required, file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the Stock Options Registration Statement (and the prospectus used in connection therewith) as may be necessary to keep the Stock Options Registration Statement effective under the Securities Act for a period of not less than ten years following the Distribution Date, provided that Marathon Petroleum’s obligations pursuant to this Section 7.9 shall terminate on the date upon which there are no further offers of securities covered thereby pursuant to the terms of the applicable stock option agreements.

INSURANCE MATTERS

SECTION 9.1 Insurance Prior to the Effective Time. Except as may otherwise be expressly provided in this Article IX, Marathon Petroleum hereby agrees, for itself and on behalf of the Marathon Petroleum Parties, that the Marathon Oil Parties shall not have any Liability whatsoever to the Marathon Petroleum Parties as a result of the insurance policies, insurance contracts and claim administration contracts and practices related to the foregoing of the Marathon Oil Parties in effect at any time prior to the Effective Time, including Liability as a result of the level or scope of coverage of any such insurance policies, insurance contracts, claim administration contracts, the creditworthiness of any insurance carrier, the terms and conditions of any policy or contract and the adequacy or timeliness of any notice, or the lack thereof, to any insurance carrier, bankruptcy trustee for any insurer, scheme administrator for any insurer, or claims administrator with respect to any actual claim or potential claim or otherwise.

SECTION 9.2 Ownership of Policies and Programs.

(a) Marathon Oil or one or more of the other Marathon Oil Parties shall continue to own all insurance policies, insurance contracts and claim administration contracts of any kind of any Marathon Oil Party which were or are in effect at any time at or prior to the Effective Time (other than the Marathon Petroleum Policies), including general liability (whether primary, excess or umbrella), fiduciary liability, automobile, aircraft hull and liability, all risk property (including business interruption) and casualty, directors and officers liability, employer’s liability, workers’ compensation, comprehensive crime, terrorism, errors and omissions and property/boiler and machinery insurance policies and policies issued by OIL, together with all rights, benefits and privileges thereunder (collectively, the “Marathon Oil Policies”). Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, (i) the Marathon Oil Parties shall retain all of their respective rights, benefits and privileges, if any, under the Marathon Oil Policies and (ii) coverage of the Marathon Petroleum Parties under the Marathon Oil Policies shall cease as of the Effective Time with respect to all Losses to the extent incurred or suffered by one or more of the Marathon Petroleum Parties in connection with, relating to, arising out of or due to, directly or indirectly, any event or occurrence at or after the Effective Time. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to be an attempted assignment of or a change to any part of the ownership of the Marathon Oil Policies or shall be construed to waive any right or remedy of any Marathon Oil

Party in respect thereof. No provision of this Agreement is intended to relieve any insurer of any Liability under any policy.

(b) Marathon Petroleum or one or more of the other Marathon Petroleum Parties shall own (i) all insurance policies, insurance contracts and claim administration contracts established in contemplation of the Distribution to cover only the Marathon Petroleum Parties after the Effective Time and (ii) the insurance policies, insurance contracts and claims administration contracts listed on Schedule 9.2(B) (collectively, the “Marathon Petroleum Policies”).

SECTION 9.3 Maintenance of Insurance for Marathon Petroleum. Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, Marathon Oil shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain in full force and effect the Shared Policies to the extent that such policies apply to the Marathon Petroleum Business.

SECTION 9.4 Acquisition, Administration and Maintenance of Post-Distribution Insurance by Marathon Petroleum. Commencing as of the Effective Time, Marathon Petroleum shall be responsible for establishing and maintaining a separate insurance program with commercially reasonable limits, deductibles and self-retentions for activities and claims involving any of the Marathon Petroleum Parties or their respective Subsidiaries. Each of the Marathon Petroleum Parties and each of their Subsidiaries, as appropriate, shall be responsible for all administrative and financial matters relating to insurance policies established and maintained by the Marathon Petroleum Parties and each of their Subsidiaries for claims relating to any period at or after the Effective Time involving any Marathon Petroleum Party or any of its Subsidiaries.

SECTION 9.5 Rights under Shared Policies.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum shall, and each of them shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to have OIL, enter into the OIL MOU to preserve retroactive coverage for both the Marathon Oil Insured Parties and Marathon Petroleum Insured Parties under the policies issued by OIL.

(b) At and after the Effective Time: (i) subject to the provisions of Section 9.5(e), Marathon Petroleum will have the right to assert and/or continue to prosecute claims for any Losses with respect to the Marathon Petroleum Business and the Transferred Assets under Marathon Oil Policies that provide coverage for such Losses (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any group health and welfare insurance policies) (“Shared Policies”) with insurers that are “occurrence-based” insurance policies (“Occurrence-Based Policies”) arising out of insured events commencing from the date of coverage thereunder to the extent that the terms and conditions of any such Occurrence-Based Policies and agreements relating thereto so allow; and (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 9.5(e), Marathon Petroleum will have the right to assert and/or continue to prosecute claims for any Losses with respect to the Marathon Petroleum Business and the Transferred Assets under Shared Policies with insurers that are written on a “claims-made” basis (“Claims-Made Policies”) arising out of insured events commencing from the date of coverage thereunder to the extent that the terms and conditions of any such Claims-Made Policies and agreements relating thereto so allow.

(c) For those claims asserted and/or prosecuted by Marathon Petroleum under either the Occurrence-Based Policies or the Claims-Made Policies: (i) all of the Marathon Oil Parties’ reasonable Out-of-Pocket Expenses incurred in connection with their efforts to assist Marathon Petroleum in asserting or continuing to prosecute the claims described in Section 9.5(d) will be promptly paid by Marathon Petroleum following receipt of an invoice for such expenses; (ii) such claims shall be subject to any amendments, commutations, terminations, buy-outs, extinguishments and modifications of the Shared Policies subject to Section 9.5(e); (iii) such claims will be subject to (and recovery thereon will be reduced by the amount of) any applicable deductibles or self-insured retentions, and, with respect to any such deductibles or self-insured retentions which require a payment by a Marathon Oil Party or any Subsidiary of a Marathon Oil Party in respect thereof (excepting any deductibles, self-insured retentions, or self-insured co-insurance maintained by Yorktown Assurance Corporation or Old Main Assurance Ltd. in such insurers’ policies of reinsurance that are not identical to the deductibles, self-insured retentions, or self-insured co-insurance maintained in such insurers’ policies issued to any of the Marathon Oil Parties), Marathon Petroleum shall reimburse such Marathon Oil Party or Subsidiary for such payment; (iv) Marathon Petroleum shall be responsible for and shall pay any Out-of-Pocket Expenses for claims handling or residual Liability arising from such claims; and (v) such claims will be subject to exhaustion of existing sublimits and aggregate limits in accordance with Section 9.5(f).

(d) Marathon Oil will use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Marathon Petroleum in asserting claims and establishing its right to coverage under applicable Shared Policies if so requested by Marathon Petroleum in writing (so long as all of the Marathon Oil Parties’ Out-of-Pocket Expenses in connection therewith are promptly paid by Marathon Petroleum in accordance with Section 9.5(c)), but Marathon Oil will not otherwise be obligated to negotiate, investigate, defend, settle or otherwise handle such claims on behalf of Marathon Petroleum. No Marathon Oil Party will bear any Liability for the failure of an insurer to pay any claim under any Shared Policy. It is understood that Claims-Made Policies may not provide coverage to the Marathon Petroleum Parties for incidents occurring prior to the Effective Time but asserted with the insurance carrier after the Effective Time.

(e) In the event that after the Effective Time Marathon Oil proposes to amend, commute, terminate, buy-out, extinguish liability under or otherwise modify any Shared Policies under which Marathon Petroleum has or may in the future have rights to assert claims pursuant to this Article IX in a manner that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect any such rights of Marathon Petroleum in any material respect, (i) Marathon Oil will give Marathon Petroleum prior notice thereof and consult with Marathon Petroleum with respect to such action, (ii) Marathon Oil will not take such action without the prior written consent of Marathon Petroleum, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (iii) Marathon Oil will pay to Marathon Petroleum its equitable share (which shall be mutually agreed upon by Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum, acting reasonably), if any, of any net proceeds actually received by Marathon Oil from the insurer under the applicable Shared Policy as a result of such action by Marathon Oil (after deducting Marathon Oil’s Out-of-Pocket Expenses incurred in connection with such action).

(f) To the extent that the limits of any Shared Policy preclude payment in full of Unrelated Claims filed by Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum, the insurance proceeds

available under such Shared Policy shall be paid to Marathon Oil and/or Marathon Petroleum on a FIFO Basis. In the event that Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum file Related Claims under any Shared Policy, each of Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum shall receive a pro rata amount of the available insurance proceeds, based on the relationship the Loss incurred by each such Party bears to the total Loss to both such Parties from the occurrence or event underlying the Related Claims.

(g) In no event will any Marathon Oil Party have any liability or obligation whatsoever to any Marathon Petroleum Party if any Shared Policy is terminated or otherwise ceases to be in effect for any reason (other than a termination in breach of Section 9.5(e)), is unavailable or inadequate to cover any Liability of any Marathon Petroleum Party for any reason whatsoever or is not renewed or extended beyond the current expiration date.

SECTION 9.6 Administration of Claims.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, the Marathon Oil Parties will be responsible for the Claims Administration with respect to claims of the Marathon Oil Parties under Shared Policies.

(b) From and after the Effective Time, the Marathon Petroleum Parties will be responsible for the Claims Administration with respect to claims of the Marathon Petroleum Parties under Shared Policies, and Marathon Oil shall provide appropriate instructions to the applicable insurance brokers under the Shared Policies to facilitate Claims Administration by Marathon Petroleum.

SECTION 9.7 Insurance Premiums. From and after the Effective Time, Marathon Oil will pay all premiums, taxes, assessments or similar charges (retrospectively-rated or otherwise) as required under the terms and conditions of the respective Shared Policies in respect of periods of coverage prior to the Effective Time, whereupon Marathon Petroleum will upon the request of Marathon Oil promptly reimburse Marathon Oil for that portion of such additional premiums and other payments paid by Marathon Oil as are reasonably determined by Marathon Oil to be attributable to the Marathon Petroleum Business, provided that, prior to agreeing to pay any such additional premiums or other payments that would reasonably be expected to result in a requirement for Marathon Petroleum to provide reimbursement under this Section 9.7, Marathon Oil shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, provide Marathon Petroleum with prior notice and a reasonable opportunity to consult with Marathon Oil with respect thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Marathon Oil will distribute any return of premiums, taxes, assessments or similar charges (retrospectively-rated or otherwise) under the terms and conditions of the respective Shared Policies, to Marathon Petroleum in proportion to the amount of any such return previously allocated to Marathon Petroleum.

SECTION 9.8 Agreement for Waiver of Conflict and Shared Defense. In the event that a Shared Policy provides coverage for both a Marathon Oil Party, on the one hand, and a Marathon Petroleum Party, on the other hand, relating to the same occurrence, Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum agree to defend jointly, pursuant to the Joint Defense Agreement, provided that in the event there is a conflict of interest which in the reasonable opinion of either such Party would otherwise prevent the conduct of that joint defense, the Parties shall cooperate to pursue

coverage under such Shared Policy pursuant to appropriate arrangements (which may require separate counsel) as permitted by such Shared Policy. Nothing in this Section 9.8 will be construed to limit or otherwise alter in any way the indemnity obligations of the Parties, including those created by this Agreement, by operation of law or otherwise.

SECTION 9.9 Duty to Mitigate. To the extent that any Party is responsible for the Claims Administration for any claim under any of the Shared Policies after the Effective Time, such Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the amount of the Loss which is the subject of the claim under the applicable Shared Policy.

SECTION 9.10 Non-Waiver of Rights to Coverage. An insurance carrier that would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto, or, solely by virtue of the provisions of this Article IX, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being expressly understood and agreed that no insurance carrier or any Third Party shall be entitled to a benefit (i.e., a benefit such Person would not be entitled to receive had the Distribution not occurred or in the absence of the provisions of this Article IX) by virtue of the provisions hereof.

(vi) any Liability the release of which would result in the release of any Person other than a Marathon Oil Party or a Marathon Petroleum Party or their respective directors, officers and employees; provided, however, that the Parties hereto agree not to

(e) any use by any Marathon Petroleum Party allowed hereunder after the Effective Time of the Marathon Oil Marks or the Information owned by, or licensed by a Third Party to, a Marathon Oil Party;

(f) the breach by any Marathon Petroleum Party of any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement or any Conveyancing Instrument;

(g) any action or inaction by any Marathon Petroleum Party that results, directly or indirectly, in a breach of any of the covenants of Marathon Oil contained in, or a breach by Marathon Oil or other failure of Marathon Oil to comply with, or a default or event of default under, (i) the Series 2007A fixed rate tax-exempt revenue bonds issued by the Parish of St. Xxxx the Baptist, State of Louisiana, (ii) the Installment Sale Agreement dated as of May 1, 2007 between the Parish of St. Xxxx the Baptist, State of Louisiana, and Marathon Oil, or (ii) any related agreements, certifications or other documents;

(h) any item or matter for which indemnification is to be provided by Marathon Petroleum in accordance with Article XV of the Employee Matters Agreement; and

(i) any Marathon Petroleum Financial Instrument;

in each case, regardless of when or where the loss, claim, accident, occurrence, event or happening giving rise to the Expense or Loss took place, or whether any such loss, claim, accident, occurrence, event or happening is known or unknown, or reported or unreported and regardless of whether such loss, claim, accident, occurrence, event or happening giving rise to the Expense or Loss existed prior to, on or after the Distribution Date or relates to, arises out of or results from actions, inactions, events, omissions, conditions, facts or circumstances occurring or existing prior to, on or after the Distribution Date.

SECTION 11.3 Indemnification by Marathon Oil. Except as provided in Section 11.5, as expressly provided in any of the Operating Agreements, Marathon Oil shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Marathon Petroleum Parties and each of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Marathon Petroleum Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all Expenses or Losses to the extent incurred or suffered by one or more of the Marathon Petroleum Indemnified Parties in connection with, relating to, arising out of or due to, directly or indirectly, any of the following items:

(a) the failure by any Marathon Oil Party or any other Person to pay, perform or otherwise promptly discharge any of the Marathon Oil Liabilities in accordance with their respective terms;

(b) any Marathon Oil Liability;

(d) solely with respect to the information contained in the Information Statement under the caption “The Spin-off – Reasons for the Spin-Off” and the information contained in the reports of Marathon Oil filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act and incorporated by reference in the Notes Offering Memorandum (collectively, the “Designated Marathon Information”), any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(e) any use by any Marathon Oil Party allowed hereunder after the Effective Time of the Marathon Petroleum Marks or the Information owned by, or licensed by a Third Party to, a Marathon Petroleum Party;

(f) the breach by any Marathon Oil Party of any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement or any Conveyancing Instrument;

(g) any item or matter for which indemnification is to be provided by Marathon Oil in accordance with Article XV of the Employee Matters Agreement; and

(h) any Marathon Oil Financial Instrument;

SECTION 11.4 Applicability of and Limitation on Indemnification. The indemnity obligations under this Article XI shall apply notwithstanding any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party and shall apply without regard to whether the Loss or Expense for which indemnity is claimed hereunder is based on strict liability, absolute liability or any other theory of liability or arises as an obligation for contribution. THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THE RELEASE FROM LIABILITIES AND INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER AND UNDER THE OPERATING AGREEMENTS MAY INCLUDE RELEASE FROM LIABILITIES AND INDEMNIFICATION FOR LOSSES RESULTING FROM, OR ARISING OUT OF, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY AND IN WHOLE OR IN PART, AN INDEMNITEE’S OWN NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER LEGAL FAULT.

SECTION 11.5 Adjustment of Indemnifiable Losses.

(a) The amount that any Party (an “Indemnifying Party”) is required to pay to any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”) shall be reduced by any insurance proceeds and other amounts actually recovered (net of any Out-of-Pocket Expenses incurred in the collection thereof) by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party in reduction of the related Expense or Loss. Each of Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum shall use its respective commercially reasonable efforts to collect any proceeds under its respective available and applicable insurance policies to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is entitled prior to seeking indemnification or contribution under this Agreement, where allowed; provided, however, that any such actions by an Indemnified Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement, including the Indemnifying Party’s obligation promptly to pay directly or reimburse the Indemnified Party for costs and expenses actually incurred by the Indemnified Party. If an Indemnified Party receives a payment (an “Indemnity Payment”) required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Expense or Loss and subsequently actually receives insurance proceeds or indemnification proceeds from any Third Party in respect of such Expense or Loss, then such Indemnified Party shall refund to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the after-tax amount of such insurance proceeds or indemnification proceeds actually received and (ii) the net amount of Indemnity Payments actually received previously. The Indemnified Party agrees that the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to such Indemnified Party under any applicable insurance policy as to any payments made by such Indemnifying Party.

(b) An insurer who would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being expressly understood and agreed that no insurer or any other Third Party shall be entitled to a “windfall” (i.e., a benefit it would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification provisions), and shall not be deemed to be third-party beneficiaries, by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof.

(c) To the extent permissible under applicable tax law, amounts paid by Marathon Oil to or for the benefit of Marathon Petroleum or by Marathon Petroleum to or for the benefit of Marathon Oil under this Article XI (and under other specified provisions of this Agreement) shall be treated by the Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, for all applicable tax purposes, as either a contribution by Marathon Oil to Marathon Petroleum or a distribution by Marathon Petroleum to Marathon Oil, as the case may be, occurring immediately prior to the Distribution; provided, however, that, in the event it is determined that such treatment is not permissible under applicable law, the payment in question shall be adjusted to place the Indemnified Party in the same after-tax position it would have enjoyed if such treatment had been permissible.

(d) In the event that an Indemnity Payment shall be denominated in a currency other than United States dollars, the amount of such payment shall be translated into United States dollars using the Foreign Exchange Rate for such currency determined in accordance with the following rules:

(i) with respect to an Expense or a Loss arising from payment by a financial institution under a guarantee, comfort letter, letter of credit, foreign exchange contract or

similar instrument, the Foreign Exchange Rate for such currency shall be determined as of the date on which such financial institution shall have been reimbursed;

(ii) with respect to an Expense or a Loss covered by insurance, the Foreign Exchange Rate for such currency shall be the Foreign Exchange Rate employed by the insurance company providing such insurance in settling such Expense or Loss with the Indemnifying Party; and

(iii) with respect to an Expense or a Loss not covered by clause (i) or (ii) above, the Foreign Exchange Rate for such currency shall be determined as of the date that notice of the claim with respect to such Expense or Loss shall be given to the Indemnified Party.

SECTION 11.6 Procedures for Indemnification of Third-Party Claims.

(a) If any Third Party shall make any claim or commence any Action (each such claim or Action being a “Third-Party Claim”) against any one or more of the Indemnified Parties with respect to which an Indemnified Party intends to make any claim for indemnification against Marathon Petroleum under Section 11.2 or against Marathon Oil under Section 12.3, such Indemnified Party shall promptly, but in no event later than 10 days after receipt by the Indemnified Party of written notice of the Third-Party Claim, give written notice to the Indemnifying Party describing such Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of any Indemnified Party to provide notice in accordance with this Section 11.6(a) shall not relieve the related Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article XI, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure to provide prompt notice.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have 21 days after its receipt of the notice referred to in Section 11.6(a) to notify the Indemnified Party that it elects to conduct and control the defense of such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not give the foregoing notice, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, contest, settle or compromise such Third-Party Claim in the exercise of its reasonable discretion, subject to the provisions of this Section 11.6, and the Indemnifying Party shall, upon request from any of the Indemnified Parties, promptly pay to such Indemnified Parties in accordance with the other terms of this Section 11.6(b) the amount of any Expense or Loss subject to indemnification hereunder resulting from the Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party gives the foregoing notice that it elects to conduct and control the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its sole expense, to undertake, conduct and control, through counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, the conduct and settlement of such Third-Party Claim, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith, provided that: (i) the Indemnifying Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to prevent any lien, encumbrance or other adverse charge to thereafter attach to any asset of any Indemnified Party; (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to prevent any injunction against any Indemnified Party; (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Party and any counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party to monitor such conduct or settlement and shall provide the Indemnified Party and any such counsel with such information regarding such Third-Party Claim as either of them may reasonably

request (which request may be general or specific), but the fees and expenses of such counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party shall be borne by the Indemnified Party unless (A) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed that the Indemnifying Party should pay for such counsel or (B) the named parties to any such Third-Party Claim include the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or reasonably likely conflicts of interest between them, in either of which cases the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnified Party shall be paid or reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party; and (iv) the Indemnifying Party shall agree promptly to reimburse to the extent required under this Article XI the Indemnified Party for the full amount of any Expense or Loss resulting from such Third-Party Claim. A Party’s defense of any Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 11.6(b) includes the right (after consultation with the other Party following at least 21 days’ written notice thereof) to compromise, settle or consent to the entry of any judgment or determination of liability concerning such Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that, in no event shall the Indemnifying Party, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment if the effect thereof is (i) to permit any injunction, declaratory judgment, other order or other non-monetary relief to be entered, directly or indirectly, against such Indemnified Party or (ii) in the reasonable judgment of such Indemnified Party (as reflected in a written objection delivered by such Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party within the period of 21 days following receipt of the written notice described above in this Section 11.6(b)), have a material adverse financial impact or a material adverse effect upon the ongoing operations of such Indemnified Party (taken together with its Subsidiaries). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 11.6, unless otherwise specifically agreed to by the Parties in writing (which agreement may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), neither Party shall enter into any compromise or settlement or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the Third Party of a release of both the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party (and their respective Subsidiaries) from all further liability concerning such Third-Party Claim.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party shall not have undertaken the conduct and control of the defense of any Third-Party Claim as provided above, the Indemnifying Party shall nevertheless be entitled through counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party to monitor the conduct or settlement of such claim by the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party and such counsel with such information regarding such Third-Party Claim as either of them may reasonably request (which request may be general or specific), but all costs and expenses incurred in connection with such monitoring shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party. In any such case, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to compromise, settle or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to such Third-Party Claim as provided in Section 11.6(b) without the consent of the Indemnifying Party.

(d) If the Indemnified Party determines in its reasonable judgment that the Indemnifying Party is not contesting such Third-Party Claim in good faith or is not settling such Third-Party Claim in accordance with this Section 11.6, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to undertake control of the defense of such Third-Party Claim upon five days written notice to the Indemnifying Party and thereafter to defend, contest, settle or compromise such Third-

Party Claim in the exercise of its exclusive discretion. In any such case, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to compromise, settle or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to such Third-Party Claim as provided in Section 11.6(b) without the consent of the Indemnifying Party and at the sole expense of the Indemnifying Party.

(e) In the event of any payment by or on behalf of any Indemnifying Party to any Indemnified Party in connection with any Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will be subrogated to and will stand in the place of such Indemnified Party to the extent of such payment as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnified Party may have any right, defense or claim relating to the Third-Party Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting the Third-Party Claim or against any other Person (other than another Indemnified Party). Such Indemnified Party will cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right, defense or claim.

(f) If an Action is commenced by a Third Party naming both one or more Marathon Oil Parties and one or more Marathon Petroleum Parties as defendants thereto, such Action will be handled in accordance with Section 7.7(b), to the extent applicable. Except as provided in Section 11.8, in the event of any Action in which the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party each have Liability, then at the request of either Party, the Parties will endeavor to agree on an apportionment of Liability and Out-of-Pocket Expenses related to the defense of such Action. In the event of any Action in which the Indemnifying Party is not also a named defendant, at the request of either the Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party, the Parties will use reasonable efforts to substitute the Indemnifying Party for the named defendant in the Action.

(g) With respect to any Proceeding (as defined in the Tax Sharing Agreement), the provisions of the Tax Sharing Agreement (and not the provisions of this Section 11.6) shall apply.

SECTION 11.7 Procedures for Indemnification of Direct Claims. If any claim for indemnification on account of an Expense or a Loss that does not result from a Third-Party Claim is to be made directly by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall promptly after learning of such direct claim give written notice to the Indemnifying Party describing such claim in reasonable detail. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of any Indemnified Party to provide notice in accordance with this Section 11.7 shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article XI, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure to provide prompt notice. Such notice may be given by email or other electronic means. Such Indemnifying Party shall have a period of 21 days after the receipt of such notice within which to respond thereto. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such 21-day period, such Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have refused to accept responsibility to provide indemnification with respect to such claim. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such 21-day period or does respond within such 21-day period and rejects such claim in whole or in part, such Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue resolution as provided in Article XII.

SECTION 11.8 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Article XI is judicially determined to be unavailable (other than in accordance with the terms of this

Agreement, in which case this Section 11.8 shall not apply) to an Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses or Expenses referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Expense or Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Marathon Petroleum Indemnified Parties, on the one hand, and the Marathon Oil Indemnified Parties, on the other hand, in connection with the conduct, statements or omissions that resulted in such Expense or Loss. The relative fault of any Marathon Petroleum Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and of any Marathon Oil Indemnified Party, on the other hand, in the case of any Expense or Loss arising out of or related to information contained in the Form 10 Registration Statement, the Information Statement, any Notes Offering Memorandum, the Stock Options Registration Statement (or related prospectus forming a part thereof), any other registration statement filed by Marathon Petroleum (or related prospectus forming a part thereof) or other securities law filing 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 of a material fact relates to information supplied by the Marathon Petroleum Business or a Marathon Petroleum Indemnified Party, on the one hand, or by the Marathon Oil Business or a Marathon Oil Indemnified Party, on the other hand. Only the Designated Marathon Information shall be deemed supplied by the Marathon Oil Business or the Marathon Oil Indemnified Parties. All other information in the Form 10 Registration Statement, the Information Statement, any Notes Offering Memorandum, the Stock Options Registration Statement (or related prospectus forming a part thereof) and any other registration statement filed by Marathon Petroleum (or related prospectus forming a part thereof) shall be deemed supplied by the Marathon Petroleum Business or the Marathon Petroleum Indemnified Parties. The Parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above.

SECTION 11.9 Remedies Cumulative. The remedies provided in this Article XI shall be cumulative and, subject to the provisions of Article XI, shall not preclude assertion by an Indemnified Party of any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against any Indemnifying Party; provided that the procedures set forth in this Article XI shall be the exclusive procedures governing any indemnity action brought under this Agreement.

SECTION 11.10 Survival. All covenants and agreements of the Parties contained in this Agreement relating to indemnification shall survive the Distribution Date indefinitely, unless a specific survival or other applicable period is expressly set forth herein.

SECTION 11.11 No Special Damages. IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY BE LIABLE UNDER THIS ARTICLE XI OR OTHERWISE IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OPERATING AGREEMENT FOR EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, REMOTE, SPECULATIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING IN RESPECT OF LOST PROFITS OR REVENUES), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), WHETHER OR NOT SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT ANY SUCH PARTY INCURS SUCH DAMAGES PAYABLE TO A THIRD PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH

A THIRD-PARTY CLAIM, IN WHICH EVENT SUCH DAMAGES SHALL BE RECOVERABLE.

SECTION 11.12 Ancillary Agreements. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent any Operating Agreement contains any indemnification obligation or contribution obligation relating to any Marathon Oil Liability, Marathon Petroleum Liability or Transferred Asset contributed, assumed, retained, transferred, delivered, conveyed or governed pursuant to such Operating Agreement, the indemnification obligations and contribution obligations contained herein shall not apply to such Marathon Oil Liability, Marathon Petroleum Liability or Transferred Asset and instead the indemnification obligations and/or contribution obligations set forth in such Operating Agreement shall govern with regard to such Marathon Oil Liability, Marathon Petroleum Liability or Transferred Asset.

ARTICLE XII

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

SECTION 12.1 Agreement to Arbitrate. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein or in any Operating Agreement, the procedures for discussion, negotiation and arbitration set forth in this Article XII shall apply to all disputes, controversies or claims (whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise) that may arise out of or relate to, or arise under or in connection with this Agreement or any Operating Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including all actions taken in furtherance of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby on or before the date of this Agreement or the Distribution Date), between or among any of the Marathon Oil Parties and the Marathon Petroleum Parties. Each Party hereto agrees on behalf of itself and its respective Subsidiaries that the procedures set forth in this Article XII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy in connection with any dispute, controversy or claim relating to any of the foregoing matters and irrevocably waives any right to commence any Action in or before any Governmental Authority, except as expressly provided in Section 12.7(b) and except to the extent provided under the Arbitration Act in the case of judicial review of arbitration results or awards. EACH PARTY ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS RESPECTIVE SUBSIDIARIES IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO ANY TRIAL IN A COURT THAT WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE JURISDICTION OVER ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE SET FORTH IN THE FIRST SENTENCE OF THIS SECTION 12.1.

SECTION 12.2 Escalation.

(a) The Parties hereto agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve expeditiously any dispute, controversy or claim between them or any of their respective Subsidiaries with respect to the matters covered hereby that may arise from time to time on a mutually acceptable negotiated basis. In furtherance of the foregoing, any Party hereto involved in a dispute, controversy or claim may deliver a notice (an “Escalation Notice”) demanding an in-person meeting involving representatives of the Parties hereto at a senior level of management of the Parties hereto (or if the Parties hereto agree, of the appropriate strategic business unit or division within each Party). A copy of any such Escalation Notice shall be given to the General Counsel, or like officer, of each Party involved in the dispute, controversy or claim (which copy shall state that it is an Escalation Notice pursuant to this Agreement). Any agenda, location or

procedures for such discussions or negotiations between the Parties may be established by the Parties from time to time; provided, however, that the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to meet within 30 days of the Escalation Notice.

(b) If the Parties are unable to resolve the dispute within 30 business days after the date of the Escalation Notice, any Party hereto will have the right to begin arbitration and submit an Arbitration Demand Notice in accordance with Section 12.3.

(c) The Parties may, by mutual consent, select a mediator to aid the Parties in their discussions and negotiations. Any opinion expressed by any such mediator shall be strictly advisory and shall not be binding on the Parties, nor shall any opinion expressed by any such mediator be admissible in any arbitration proceedings. Costs of any mediation shall be borne equally by the Parties, except that each Party shall be responsible for its own expenses. Mediation is not a prerequisite to a demand for arbitration under Section 12.3.

(d) The Parties agree that all discussions, negotiations and other information exchanged between the Parties during the foregoing proceedings will be without prejudice to the legal position of a Party in any subsequent Action.

SECTION 12.3 Procedures for Arbitration.

(a) At any time following the 30 business day period set forth in Section 12.2(b) (the “Arbitration Demand Date”), any Party involved in the dispute, controversy or claim (regardless of whether such Party delivered the Escalation Notice) may, unless the Applicable Deadline (as hereinafter defined) has occurred, make a written demand (the “Arbitration Demand Notice”) that the dispute be resolved by binding arbitration, which Arbitration Demand Notice shall be given to the Parties to the dispute, controversy or claim in the manner set forth in Section 14.9. If any Party shall deliver an Arbitration Demand Notice to another Party, such other Party may itself deliver an Arbitration Demand Notice to such first Party with respect to any related dispute, controversy or claim with respect to which the Applicable Deadline has not passed without the requirement of delivering an Escalation Notice. No Party may assert that the failure to resolve any matter during any discussions or negotiations, the course of conduct during the discussions or negotiations or the failure to agree on a mutually acceptable time, agenda, location or procedures for the meeting, in each case, as contemplated by Section 12.2, is a prerequisite to a demand for arbitration under this Section 12.3. If either Party delivers an Arbitration Demand Notice with respect to any dispute, controversy or claim that is the subject of any then pending arbitration proceeding or of a previously delivered Arbitration Demand Notice, all such disputes, controversies and claims shall be resolved in the arbitration proceeding for which an Arbitration Demand Notice was first delivered unless the arbitrator in his or her sole discretion determines that it is impracticable or otherwise inadvisable to do so.

(b) Except as may be expressly provided in any Operating Agreement, any Arbitration Demand Notice may be given until two years after the later of (i) the occurrence of the act or event giving rise to the underlying claim (it being understood that in the case of a Third-Party Claim, such date shall be the date of assertion of the Third-Party Claim rather than the act or event underlying the Third-Party Claim) and (ii) the date on which such act or event was, or should have been, in the exercise of reasonable due diligence, discovered by the Party

asserting the claim (as applicable and as it may in a particular case be specifically extended by the Parties in writing, the “Applicable Deadline”). Any discussions, negotiations or mediations between the Parties pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise will not toll the Applicable Deadline unless expressly agreed in writing by the Parties. Each Party agrees, on behalf of itself and its respective Subsidiaries, that, if an Arbitration Demand Notice with respect to a dispute, controversy or claim is not given prior to the expiration of the Applicable Deadline, such dispute, controversy or claim will be barred. Subject to Section 12.7(d), upon delivery of an Arbitration Demand Notice pursuant to Section 12.3(a) prior to the Applicable Deadline, the dispute, controversy or claim shall be decided by one or more arbitrators in accordance with the rules set forth in this Article XII.

SECTION 12.4 Selection of Arbitrator.

(a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, any arbitration hereunder will be conducted in accordance with the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures then prevailing. Unless the Parties otherwise agree, any such arbitration shall be conducted by and before a single arbitrator. Within 16 days following the delivery of any Arbitration Demand Notice hereunder, the Parties shall jointly request AAA to nominate ten candidates to act as arbitrator with respect to the dispute, by written notice to the Parties (provided, however, that, if the Party that submitted the Arbitration Demand Notice is unable to obtain the cooperation of the other Party to make such joint request, the Party that submitted such notice may make the request on behalf of both parties). Within 10 days following their receipt of such notice from AAA, the Parties shall concurrently exchange their respective rankings of the ten candidates and shall seek to select the arbitrator by mutual agreement. If the Parties do not reach agreement on the selection of the arbitrator within 20 days following their receipt of the notice from AAA providing the ten candidates (as evidenced by their joint notice of selection to AAA), the selection shall be made by AAA, which selection will take into account the Parties’ rankings of the candidates referred to in the immediately preceding sentence, if such rankings are provided to AAA. If the Parties determine, by mutual written agreement, to utilize an arbitration panel, consisting of two or more arbitrators, in connection with any dispute, each such arbitrator shall be selected pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section 12.4(a) (and, in that event, any references to the “arbitrator” in this Article XII shall be deemed to refer such arbitration panel or each such arbitrator or any such arbitrator, as the context indicates or requires). Any arbitrator selected pursuant to this Section 12.4(a) shall be neutral and disinterested with respect to each of the Parties and the matter and shall be reasonably competent in the applicable subject matter.

(b) The arbitrator selected pursuant to Section 12.4(a) will set a time for the hearing of the matter, which will commence no later than 180 days after the selection of the arbitrator pursuant to Section 12.4(a). The arbitrator may extend such period at his or her discretion pursuant to a reasoned request from either Party or on his or her own initiative if it is necessary to do so. The arbitrator shall use his or her best efforts to reach a final decision and render the same in writing to the Parties not later than 60 days after the last hearing date, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing. Failure of the arbitrator to do so, however, shall not be a basis for challenging the decision.

SECTION 12.5 Hearings. The arbitrator shall actively manage the arbitration with a view to achieving a just, speedy and cost-effective resolution of the dispute, claim or controversy. The arbitrator shall determine whether an oral hearing is required or whether the dispute should be submitted for a judgment or decision based on written submissions, verified witness statements and other written evidence. The arbitrator may, in his or her sole discretion, set time and other limits on the presentation of each Party’s case, its memoranda or other submissions, and refuse to receive any proffered evidence that the arbitrator finds to be cumulative, unnecessary, irrelevant or of low probative nature. The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding on the Parties, and judgment thereon may be had and will be enforceable in any court having jurisdiction over the Parties. Arbitration awards will bear interest from the date of the award at an annual rate of the Prime Rate plus 2%. To the extent that the provisions of this Agreement and the prevailing rules of the AAA conflict, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern.

SECTION 12.6 Discovery and Certain Other Matters.

(a) Discovery procedures available in litigation before the courts shall not apply in any arbitration proceedings hereunder. Any Party involved in the applicable dispute, controversy or claim may request limited document production from the other Party or Parties of specific and expressly relevant documents, with the reasonable expenses of the producing Party or Parties incurred in such production paid by the requesting Party. Any such discovery shall be conducted expeditiously and shall not cause the hearing provided for in Section 12.5 to be adjourned except upon consent of both Parties or upon a showing of cause demonstrating that such adjournment is necessary to permit discovery essential to a Party to the proceeding. Depositions, interrogatories or other forms of discovery (other than the document production set forth above) shall not occur except by consent of all Parties involved in the applicable dispute, controversy or claim. Disputes concerning the scope of document production and enforcement of the document production requests will be referred to the arbitrator for resolution. All discovery requests will be subject to the Parties’ rights to claim any applicable privilege. The arbitrator will adopt procedures to protect the proprietary rights of the Parties and to maintain the confidential treatment of the arbitration proceedings (except as may be required by applicable law). Subject to the foregoing, the arbitrator shall have the power to issue subpoenas to compel the production of documents relevant to the dispute, controversy or claim.

(b) The arbitrator shall have full power and authority to determine issues of arbitrability but shall otherwise be limited to interpreting or construing the applicable provisions of this Agreement or any Operating Agreement, and will have no authority or power to limit, expand, alter, amend, modify, revoke or suspend any condition or provision of this Agreement or any Operating Agreement; it being understood, however, that the arbitrator will have full authority to implement the provisions of this Agreement or any Operating Agreement and to fashion appropriate remedies for breaches of this Agreement (including interim or permanent injunctive relief); provided, however, that the arbitrator shall not have (i) any authority in excess of the authority a court having jurisdiction over the Parties and the controversy or dispute would have absent these arbitration provisions or (ii) any right or power to award exemplary, punitive, special, indirect, consequential, remote or speculative damages (including in respect of lost profits or revenues) or treble damages (provided that this clause (ii) shall not limit the award of any such damages to the extent they are included in any Liabilities to third parties as to which the

provisions of this Article XII are applicable). It is the intention of the Parties that in rendering a decision the arbitrator gives effect to the applicable provisions of this Agreement and the Operating Agreements and follow applicable law (it being understood and agreed that this sentence shall not give rise to a right of judicial review of the award of the arbitrator).

(c) If a Party fails or refuses to appear at and participate in an arbitration hearing after due notice, the arbitrator may hear and determine the controversy upon evidence produced by the appearing Party. Any decision rendered under such circumstances shall be as valid and enforceable as if the Parties had appeared and participated fully at all stages.

(d) The fees of the arbitrator and all other arbitration costs shall be borne equally by each Party involved in the matter, except that each Party shall be responsible for its own attorney’s fees and other costs and expenses, including the costs of witnesses selected by such Party.

SECTION 12.7 Certain Additional Matters.

(a) Any arbitration award shall be an award with a holding in favor of or against a Party and shall include findings as to facts, issues or conclusions of law (including with respect to any matters relating to the validity or infringement of patents or patent applications) and shall include a statement of the reasoning on which the award rests. The award must also be in adequate form so that a judgment of a court may be entered thereupon. Judgment upon any arbitration award hereunder may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Any award shall not be vacated or appealed except on the bases of (i) the award being procured by fraud or corruption, (ii) the arbitrator being partial or corrupt, (iii) the arbitrator wrongfully refusing to postpone a hearing or hear evidence, or (iv) the arbitrator exceeding the scope of the power granted to the arbitrator in this Agreement.

(b) Regardless of whether an Escalation Notice has been delivered, prior to the time at which the arbitrator is appointed pursuant to Section 12.4, either Party may seek one or more temporary restraining orders in a court of competent jurisdiction if necessary in order to preserve and protect the status quo. Neither the request for, nor the grant or denial of, any such temporary restraining order shall be deemed a waiver of the obligation to arbitrate as set forth herein, and the arbitrator may order the Parties to petition the court to dissolve, continue or modify any such order. Any such temporary restraining order shall remain in effect until the first to occur of the expiration of the order in accordance with its terms or the dissolution thereof.

(c) Except as required by law, the Parties shall hold, and shall cause their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and other representatives to hold, the existence, content and result of mediation or arbitration in confidence in accordance with the provisions of Article XIII and except as may be required in order to enforce any award. Each of the Parties shall request that the arbitrator comply with such confidentiality requirement.

(d) If at any time the arbitrator shall fail to serve as such for any reason, the Parties shall select a new arbitrator who shall be disinterested as to the Parties and the matter in accordance with the procedure set forth herein for the selection of the initial arbitrator. The extent, if any, to which testimony previously given shall be repeated or as to which the

replacement arbitrator elects to rely on the stenographic record (if there is one) of such testimony shall be determined by the arbitrator.

SECTION 12.8 Continuity of Service and Performance. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Parties will continue to provide service and honor all other commitments under this Agreement and each Operating Agreement during the course of dispute resolution pursuant to the provisions of this Article XII with respect to all matters not subject to such dispute, controversy or claim to the extent such Party is obligated to do so pursuant to the underlying agreement.

SECTION 12.9 Law Governing Arbitration Procedures. The interpretation of the provisions of this Article XII, only insofar as they relate to the agreement to arbitrate and any procedures pursuant thereto, shall be governed by the Arbitration Act and other applicable U.S. federal law. In all other respects, the interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed as set forth in Section 14.2.

SECTION 12.10 Choice of Forum. Any arbitration proceedings hereunder shall take place in Atlanta, Georgia, unless another location is otherwise agreed to in writing by the Parties.

(a) At all times from and after the Distribution Date for a period of ten years, as soon as reasonably practicable after written request: (i) Marathon Oil shall afford to the Marathon Petroleum Parties and their authorized accountants, counsel and other designated representatives reasonable access during normal business hours to, or, at Marathon Petroleum’s written request and expense, provide copies of, all records, books, contracts, instruments, data, documents and other information (collectively, “Information”) in the possession or under the control of Marathon Oil immediately following the Distribution Date to the extent relating to Marathon Petroleum, the Marathon Petroleum Business immediately following the Distribution Date or the employees of the Marathon Petroleum Business; and (ii) Marathon Petroleum shall afford to the Marathon Oil Parties and their authorized accountants, counsel and other designated representatives reasonable access during normal business hours to, or, at Marathon Oil’s written request and expense, provide copies of, all Information in the possession or under the control of Marathon Petroleum immediately following the Distribution Date to the extent relating to Marathon Oil, the Marathon Oil Business immediately following the Distribution Date or the employees of the Marathon Oil Business or to the extent requested by Marathon Oil in connection with the determination or verification of the aggregate amount of cash and cash equivalents held by the Marathon Petroleum Parties as of the Distribution Date in order to comply with the provisions of Section 3.2(g); provided, however, that in the event that either Marathon Oil or Marathon Petroleum determines that any such provision of or access to Information would be commercially detrimental in any material respect, violate any law or agreement or waive any attorney client privilege, the work product doctrine or other applicable privilege, the Parties shall take all reasonable measures to permit the compliance with such obligations in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence.

(b) Any Party hereto may request Information under Section 13.1 or Section 13.7: (i) to comply with reporting, disclosure, filing or other requirements imposed on the requesting Party (including under applicable securities laws) by a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the requesting Party; (ii) for use in any other judicial, regulatory, administrative or other proceeding or in order to satisfy audit, accounting, claims defense, regulatory filings, litigation or other similar requirements; (iii) for use in compensation, benefit or welfare plan administration or other bona fide business purposes; or (iv) to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any Operating Agreement.

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, until the end of the first full fiscal year of Marathon Petroleum occurring after the Distribution Date (and for a reasonable period of time afterwards as required for each Party to prepare consolidated financial statements or complete a financial statement audit for the fiscal year during which the Distribution Date occurs), each Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other Party’s Information requests to enable the other Party to meet its timetable for dissemination of its earnings releases and financial statements and enable such other Party’s independent registered public accounting firm to timely complete their audit of the annual financial statements and review of the quarterly financial statements.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article XIII, neither Party shall be required to deliver or make available to the other books and records or portions thereof which are subject to any applicable law, rule or regulation or confidentiality agreements which would by their terms prohibit such delivery; provided, however, if requested by the other Party, such Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek a waiver of or other relief from such confidentiality restriction.

(e) To the extent any books or records are subject to restrictions or limitations set forth the Employee Matters Agreement, such restrictions and limitations shall apply to such books or records, notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement.

(f) The Parties’ obligations to provide Information and cooperation with respect to taxes shall be governed by the Tax Sharing Agreement, and not by this Section 13.1.

SECTION 13.2 Ownership of Information. After the Effective Time, the Marathon Oil Parties shall own all Information, including all trade secrets, and all copyrights in any tangible expressions thereof, then in the possession or under the control of the Marathon Oil Parties or the Marathon Petroleum Parties, relating primarily to the Marathon Oil Business.

Notwithstanding the above: (i) all Information, including all trade secrets, and all copyrights in any tangible expressions thereof, relating to gas-to-fuels, gas-to-liquids hydrates, SCRUB (kinetic cracking), solvent extraction, oil sands tailings recovery, and down-hole technologies shall be the property of Marathon Oil or MOC; and (ii) all Information, including all trade secrets, and all copyrights in any tangible expressions thereof, relating to refined products pricing, retail marketing, or to Marathon Petroleum refineries, pipelines, terminals, tugs or barges, shall be the property of Marathon Petroleum. Any Information owned by one Party that is provided to a requesting Party pursuant to Section 13.1 shall be deemed to remain the property of the providing Party. Except as specifically set forth herein, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to grant or confer rights of license or otherwise in any such Information.

SECTION 13.3 Compensation for Providing Information. The Party requesting Information agrees to reimburse the providing Party for the reasonable costs, if any, of gathering and copying such Information, to the extent that such costs are incurred for the benefit of the requesting Party. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, such costs shall be computed in accordance with the providing Party’s standard methodology and procedures, if any, and if there is no such standard methodology and procedures, then on a commercially reasonable basis.

To facilitate the possible exchange of Information pursuant to this Article XIII after the Distribution Date, except as otherwise required or agreed in writing, or as otherwise provided in the Tax Sharing Agreement, the Parties hereto agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to retain all Information in their respective possession or control on the Distribution Date in accordance with the policies and procedures of Marathon Oil as in effect on the Distribution Date or such other commercially reasonable policies and procedures as may be adopted by the applicable Party after the Distribution Date as provided herein. For a period of ten years following the Distribution Date, prior to amending in any material respect its policies and/or legal hold procedures with respect to retention of Information held by such Party as of the Effective Time, the Party proposing to amend its policies and/or legal hold procedures shall, to the extent practicable, provide no less than 30 days’ prior written notice to the other Party, specifying the amendments proposed to be made, and if, prior to the scheduled date for implementation of such amended policies and/or legal hold procedures, the other Party requests in writing that implementation of such amended policies and/or legal hold procedures be delayed, the other Party shall defer implementation for an additional 30 days and shall discuss in good faith during such 30-day period the written concerns and objections of the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Party hereto shall be required to delay implementation of any amendment to Information retention policies and legal hold procedures to the extent such amendments are required by applicable law.

SECTION 13.5 Limitation of Liability. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, no Party shall have any liability to the other Party (a) if any Information exchanged or provided pursuant to this Agreement is found to be inaccurate, in the absence of willful misconduct or fraud by the Party providing such Information, or (b) if any Information is

destroyed despite using commercially reasonable efforts to comply with the provisions of Section 13.4.

SECTION 13.6 Production of Witnesses. At all times from and after the Distribution Date, each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to the other Party (without cost (other than reimbursement of actual Out-of-Pocket Expenses) to, and upon prior written request of, the other Party) its directors, officers, employees and agents as witnesses to the extent that the same may reasonably be required by the other Party (giving consideration to business demands of such directors, officers, employees and agents) in connection with any legal, administrative or other proceeding in which the requesting Party may from time to time be involved with respect to the Marathon Petroleum Business, the Marathon Oil Business or any transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that direct claims or proceedings solely involving claims by one Party against the other Party shall be governed by the provisions of Article XII.

SECTION 13.7 Sharing of Knowledge. For a period of two years following the Distribution Date, subject to any limitations set forth in any Operating Agreement, as soon as reasonably practicable after written request: (i) to the extent that information or knowledge with respect to the Marathon Petroleum Business is available through discussions with employees of the Marathon Oil Parties, Marathon Oil shall make such employees reasonably available to Marathon Petroleum to provide such information or knowledge; and (ii) to the extent that information or knowledge relating to the Marathon Oil Business is available through discussions with employees of the Marathon Petroleum Parties, Marathon Petroleum shall make such employees reasonably available to Marathon Oil to provide such information or knowledge; provided, however, that in the event that either Marathon Oil or Marathon Petroleum determines that any such provision of such information or knowledge would be commercially detrimental in any material respect, violate any law or agreement or waive any attorney-client privilege, the work product doctrine or other applicable privilege, the Parties shall take all reasonable measures to permit the compliance with such obligations in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence. The Party receiving information or knowledge shall retain such information or knowledge in accordance with the policies and procedures of Marathon Oil as in effect on the Distribution Date.

SECTION 13.8 Confidentiality.

(a) From and after the Distribution Date, each of Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum shall hold, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries and its and their directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants, advisors, and other representatives (collectively, “Representatives”) to hold, in strict confidence, with at least the same degree of care that applies to Marathon Oil’s confidential and proprietary information pursuant to policies in effect as of the Distribution Date or such other procedures as may reasonably be adopted by the receiving Party after the Distribution Date, all Confidential Information of the disclosing Party or any of its Subsidiaries obtained by it prior to the Distribution Date, accessed by it pursuant to Section 13.1 or furnished to it by or on behalf of the disclosing Party or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement or, to the extent not addressed in an Operating Agreement, any agreement contemplated hereby, shall not use such Confidential Information (except as contemplated by this Agreement, an Operating Agreement or any agreement contemplated hereby) and shall not

release or disclose such Confidential Information to any other Person, except its Representatives, who shall be bound by the provisions of this Section 13.8; provided, however, Confidential Information does not include information that a receiving Party can show that such information (A) has been published or has otherwise become available to the general public as part of the public domain without breach of this Agreement, (B) has been furnished or made known to the receiving Party without any obligation to keep it confidential by a Third Party under circumstances which are not known to the receiving Party to involve a breach of the Third Party’s obligations to a Party or (C) was developed independently of information furnished or made available to the receiving Party as contemplated under this Agreement. Each of Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum, respectively, shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 13.8 by any of its Representatives.

(b) If a Party is required to produce Confidential Information that it received from the disclosing Party in response to a subpoena or other demand for disclosure of a Governmental Authority, or in order to obtain or maintain any required governmental approval or comply with any applicable law, rule or regulation, any accounting or SEC disclosure obligation or any rule of any stock exchange on which the shares of such Party’s stock have been or will be traded, such Party shall, to the extent legally permissible, provide prior written notice to the disclosing Party before producing such Confidential Information. Upon receipt of such notice, the disclosing Party shall promptly (i) seek an appropriate protective order or (ii) waive the confidentiality obligations hereunder to the extent necessary to permit the other Party to respond to the demand or fully satisfy the relevant requirement or obligation. If a Party is nonetheless legally compelled to disclose Confidential Information and the disclosing Party does not promptly respond as required by this Section 13.8(b), such Party may disclose the Confidential Information described in such Party’s prior written notice to the extent necessary to respond to the demand or fully satisfy the relevant requirement or obligation.

(c) Without limiting the generality of Section 13.8(a) from and after the Distribution Date, each of Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum will implement and maintain security measures with at least the same degree of care that applies to Marathon Oil’s confidential and proprietary information pursuant to policies in effect as of the Distribution Date or such other procedures as may reasonably be adopted by the receiving Party after the Distribution that are designed to: (i) secure and maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Information of the other Party; (ii) protect Confidential Information of the other Party against anticipated threats or hazards; and (iii) protect against loss or theft or unauthorized access, copying, disclosure, loss, damage, modification or use of Confidential Information of the disclosing Party.

(d) Each of Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum agrees on behalf of itself and their respective Subsidiaries that in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement or the Operating Agreements, it is a “data processor” to the extent it “processes personal data” on behalf of the other Party within a European Economic Area country or received from the other Party’s operations in such a country. The terms “data processor,” “processes personal data” and “data controller” shall have the meaning given or applicable to them in the European Union’s Directive 95/46/EC regarding the protection of personal data.

(e) Each recipient of Confidential Information of the other may utilize and enhance its knowledge and experience retained in intangible form in the unaided memories of its

Representatives as a result of developing, working with, or viewing the other Party’s Confidential Information (collectively, “Unaided Knowledge”). So long as the recipient otherwise complies with Section 13.8 of this Agreement, the recipient may develop, disclose, market, transfer and/or use Unaided Knowledge, and the other Party shall not have any rights in the works created using such Unaided Knowledge nor any rights to compensation related to the recipient’s use of such Unaided Knowledge, nor any rights in the recipient’s business endeavors.

(f) Each of Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum acknowledges that the disclosing Party would not have an adequate remedy at law for the breach by the receiving Party of any one or more of the covenants contained in this Section 13.8 and agrees that, in the event of such breach, the disclosing Party may, in addition to the other remedies that may be available to it, apply to a court for an injunction to prevent breaches of this Section 13.8 and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Section 13.8. Notwithstanding any other Section hereof, the provisions of this Section 13.8 shall survive the Distribution Date indefinitely.

(g) This Section 13.8 shall not apply with respect to Confidential Information furnished to the receiving Party or accessed by the receiving Party pursuant to a Commercial Agreement, except to the extent that such Commercial Agreement incorporates the provisions of this Section 13.8 by reference.

(h) Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in this Section 13.8, with respect to financial and other information related to the Marathon Petroleum Parties for the periods during which such Marathon Petroleum Parties were Subsidiaries of Marathon Oil, Marathon Oil shall be permitted to disclose such information in its earnings releases, investor calls, rating agency presentations and other similar disclosures to the extent such information has customarily been included by Marathon Oil in such disclosures and in its reports, statements or other documents filed or furnished with the SEC in accordance with applicable law, rules or regulations.

SECTION 13.9 Privileged Matters.

(a) Each of Marathon Oil and Marathon Petroleum agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain, preserve and, following the written request of the other Party, assert all privileges, including privileges arising under or relating to the attorney-client relationship (which shall include the attorney-client and work product privileges), not heretofore waived, that relate to the Marathon Petroleum Business or the Marathon Oil Business for any period prior to the Distribution Date (each a “Privilege”). Each Party hereto acknowledges and agrees that any costs associated with asserting any Privilege shall be borne by the Party requesting that such Privilege be asserted. Each Party agrees that it shall not knowingly waive any Privilege that could be asserted under applicable law without the prior written consent of the other Party. Each Party agrees that it will not produce or disclose any information that it believes or has reason to believe may be covered by a Privilege of the other Party under this Section 13.9 unless (i) the other Party has provided its written consent to such production or disclosure (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) or (ii) a court of competent jurisdiction has entered a final, nonappealable order finding that the information is not entitled to protection under any applicable Privilege. The rights and obligations created by this Section 13.9 shall apply to all information relating to the Marathon Oil Business or the Marathon Petroleum Business as to which, but for the Distribution, either Party would have been entitled to

assert or did assert the protection of a Privilege (“Privileged Information”), including (i) any and all information generated prior to the Distribution Date but which, after the Distribution, is in the possession of either Party and (ii) all information generated, received or arising after the Distribution Date that refers to or relates to Privileged Information generated, received or arising prior to the Distribution Date.

(b) Upon receipt by either Party of any subpoena, discovery or other request that may call for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information or if either Party obtains knowledge that any current or former employee of Marathon Oil or Marathon Petroleum has received any subpoena, discovery or other request that may call for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of the other Party, such Party shall notify promptly the other Party of the existence of the request and shall provide the other Party a reasonable opportunity to review the information and to assert any rights it may have under this Section 13.9 or otherwise to prevent the production or disclosure of Privileged Information.

(c) Marathon Oil’s transfer of books and records and other information to Marathon Petroleum, and Marathon Oil’s agreement to permit Marathon Petroleum to possess Privileged Information existing or generated prior to the Distribution Date, are made in reliance on Marathon Petroleum’s agreement, as set forth in Section 13.8 and Section 13.9, to maintain the confidentiality of Privileged Information and to assert and maintain all applicable Privileges. The access to information being granted pursuant to Section 13.1, the agreement to provide witnesses and individuals pursuant to Section 13.6 and the transfer of Privileged Information to Marathon Petroleum pursuant to this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any Privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Section 13.9 or otherwise. Nothing in this Agreement shall operate to reduce, minimize or condition the rights granted to Marathon Oil in, or the obligations imposed upon Marathon Petroleum by, this Section 13.9. Marathon Petroleum’s transfer of books and records and other information to Marathon Oil, and Marathon Petroleum’s agreement to permit Marathon Oil to possess Privileged Information existing or generated prior to the Distribution Date, are made in reliance on Marathon Oil’s agreement, as set forth in Section 13.8 and Section 13.9, to maintain the confidentiality of Privileged Information and to assert and maintain all applicable Privileges. The access to information being granted pursuant to Section 13.1, the agreement to provide witnesses and individuals pursuant to Section 13.6 and the transfer of Privileged Information to Marathon Oil pursuant to this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any Privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Section 13.9 or otherwise. Nothing in this Agreement shall operate to reduce, minimize or condition the rights granted to Marathon Petroleum in, or the obligations imposed upon Marathon Oil by, this Section 13.9.

SECTION 13.10 Attorney Representation. Marathon Oil, on behalf of itself and the other Marathon Oil Parties, hereby waives any conflict of interest with respect to any attorney who is or becomes an employee of Marathon Petroleum resulting from such person being an employee of Marathon Oil or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Marathon Petroleum Parties) at any time prior to the Distribution and agrees to allow such attorney to represent the Marathon Petroleum Parties in any transaction or dispute with respect to this Agreement, the Operating Agreements, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and transactions between the Parties which commence following the Distribution Date. Marathon Petroleum, on behalf of itself and the other Marathon Petroleum Parties, hereby waives any conflict of interest with

respect to any attorney who is or becomes an employee of Marathon Oil resulting from such person being an employee of Marathon Petroleum or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Marathon Oil Parties) at any time prior to the Distribution and agrees to allow such attorney to represent the Marathon Oil Parties in any transaction or dispute with respect to this Agreement, the Operating Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and transactions between the Parties which commence following the Distribution Date. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Marathon Oil Party and each Marathon Petroleum Party will, upon request, execute and deliver a specific waiver as may be required in connection with a particular transaction or dispute under the applicable rules of professional conduct in order to effectuate the general waiver set forth above.

SECTION 13.11 Financial Information Certifications.

(a) In order to enable the principal executive officer or officers, principal financial officer or officers and controller or controllers of Marathon Oil to make the certifications required of them under Section 302 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, within 30 days following the end of any fiscal quarter during which Marathon Petroleum is a Subsidiary of Marathon Oil, Marathon Petroleum shall provide a certification statement with respect to such quarter or portion thereof to those certifying officers and employees of Marathon Oil, which certification shall be in substantially the same form as had been provided by officers or employees of Marathon Petroleum in certifications delivered prior to the Distribution Date (provided that such certification shall be made by Marathon Petroleum rather than individual officers or employees), or as otherwise agreed upon between the Parties. Such certification statements shall also reflect any changes in certification statements necessitated by the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) In order to enable the principal executive officer or officers, principal financial officer or officers and controller or controllers of Marathon Petroleum to make the certifications required of them under Section 302 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, within 30 days following the end of any fiscal quarter during which Marathon Petroleum is a Subsidiary of Marathon Oil, Marathon Oil shall provide a certification statement with respect to testing of internal controls for corporate and shared services processes for such quarter or portion thereof to those certifying officers and employees of Marathon Petroleum, which certification shall be in substantially the same form as had been provided by officers or employees of Marathon Oil in certifications delivered to its principal executive officer, principal financial officer and controller prior to the Distribution Date (provided that such certification shall be made by Marathon Oil rather than individual officers or employees,) or as otherwise agreed upon between the Parties. Such certification statements shall also reflect any changes in certification statements necessitated by the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Any such waiver shall be validly and sufficiently given for the purposes of this Agreement if, as to any Party, it is in writing signed by an authorized representative of such Party. The failure of any Party to enforce at any time any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed to be a waiver of such provision, or in any way to affect the validity of this Agreement or any part hereof or the right of any Party thereafter to enforce each and every such provision. No waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall be held to constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

SECTION 14.5 Partial Invalidity. Wherever possible, each provision hereof shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but in case any one or more of the provisions contained herein shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision or provisions shall be ineffective to the extent, but only to the extent, of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such provision or provisions or any other provisions hereof, unless such a construction would be unreasonable.

SECTION 14.6 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original instrument, but all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become binding when one or more counterparts have been signed by and delivered to each of the Parties hereto.

SECTION 14.7 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that the rights and obligations of any Party under this Agreement shall not be assignable by such Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties hereto. The successors and permitted assigns hereunder shall include any permitted assignee as well as the successors in interest to such permitted assignee (whether by merger, liquidation (including successive mergers or liquidations) or otherwise).

SECTION 14.8 Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Article IX (solely with respect to the directors and officers insurance policy), Article XI and Section 13.10, the provisions of this Agreement are solely for the benefit of the Parties and their

respective Subsidiaries, Affiliates, successors and permitted assigns and shall not confer upon any Third Party any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement or other right in excess of those existing without reference to this Agreement or any Operating Agreement.

All notices, requests, claims, demands and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given or delivered (i) when delivered personally, (ii) if transmitted by facsimile when confirmation of transmission is received or by email when receipt of such email is acknowledged by return email, (iii) if sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, on the third business day after mailing or (iv) if sent by private courier when received; and shall be addressed as follows:
