Each Schedule that is entered into between Carrier and Shipper will, together with the terms of this Agreement to the extent incorporated by reference therein, create a separate contract between the Parties.

Article III.

Term

Section 3.01 Term. This Agreement shall have a primary term commencing on the Effective Date and ending 10 years from the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”), and may be renewed by Shipper, at Shipper’s sole option, for one successive 5 year renewal term (the “Renewal Term”), upon at least 180 Days’ written Notice from Shipper to Carrier prior to the end of the Initial Term.

Article IV.

Transportation Services and Minimum Commitments

Section 4.01 Transportation Services. During the Term, Carrier shall provide transportation services on the Pipelines covered under the Schedule in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Schedule and the applicable Tariff, if any.

Section 4.02 Minimum Quarterly Commitment. During each Calendar Quarter, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Schedule and the applicable Tariff, if any, Shipper shall tender (or otherwise pay for transportation services with respect to, as contemplated by the Schedule), at one or more Origin Points, volumes of Products equal to the applicable Minimum Quarterly Commitment.

Section 4.03 Loss of Available Capacity. If, for any reason (other than an Outage or a Carrier Force Majeure), the average daily capacity of the Pipeline during a given Calendar Quarter is less than the Minimum Quarterly Commitment for such Calendar Quarter, or if the capacity of the Pipeline is required to be allocated among shippers with the result that the average daily capacity of the Pipeline available to Shipper during a given Calendar Quarter is less than the Minimum Quarterly Commitment for such Calendar Quarter, then the Minimum Quarterly Commitment for the applicable Calendar Quarter shall be reduced to equal the average daily capacity available to Shipper during such Calendar Quarter.

Section 4.04 Partial Period Proration.

(a) If the Effective Date is any Day other than the first Day of a Calendar Quarter, or if this Agreement is terminated on any Day other than the last Day of a Calendar Quarter, then any calculation determined with respect to any such Calendar Quarter will be prorated by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Days in that part of the Calendar Quarter beginning on the Effective Date or ending on the date of such termination, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the total number of Days in the Calendar Quarter.

(b) If the Effective Date is any Day other than the first Day of a Month, or if this Agreement is terminated on any Day other than the last Day of a Month, then any quantity based on a Monthly determination will be prorated by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number

of Days in that part of the Month beginning on the Effective Date or ending on the date of such termination, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the total number of Days in the Month.

Section 4.05 Special Reduction of Minimum Quarterly Commitment. If Carrier’s use of all or part of the Pipeline is restrained, enjoined, restricted or terminated by any Governmental Authority or by right of eminent domain, then Carrier, upon being notified of such restraint, enjoinder, restriction or termination, shall promptly notify Shipper, and the Minimum Quarterly Commitment shall be reduced to the extent and for such period of time that such restraint, enjoinder, restriction or termination precludes Shipper from satisfying its Minimum Quarterly Commitment during the Calendar Quarter.

Section 4.06 Maintenance; Outage. In the event of any planned or unplanned maintenance or disruption of service on the Pipeline or any Carrier facilities affecting the Pipeline (in either case, other than due to a Carrier Force Majeure) that, in Carrier’s reasonable judgment, will affect transportation of Products on the Pipeline (an “Outage”), Carrier shall provide Shipper with at least 45 Days’ advance notice of the Outage, if such Outage is planned, or as much advance notice of the Outage as reasonably possible under the circumstances, if the Outage is unplanned. Carrier shall not schedule a planned Outage without first consulting with Shipper and providing Shipper with relevant information about the nature, extent, cause and expected duration of the planned Outage. Carrier shall also use reasonable commercial efforts to accommodate any scheduling requests made by Shipper in connection with such Outage. During any Outage, Carrier shall not be liable for any loss or damage resulting from or in connection with the Pipeline downtime, other than due to Carrier’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Any Outage shall be treated in the same manner as a Carrier Force Majeure in accordance with Section 14.02.

Article V.

Tariffs

Section 5.01 Tariff. Shipments under this Agreement shall be subject to, and the Parties shall be required to comply with, the provisions of any applicable Tariff.

Section 5.02 No Challenge of Rates. Each of Shipper and Carrier agrees not to commence or support any tariff filing, application, protest, complaint, petition, motion, or other proceeding before FERC for the purpose of requesting that FERC accept or set Tariff Rates applicable to the Pipeline which are inconsistent with this Agreement or the Schedule; provided, however, that Shipper reserves its rights under FERC regulations to challenge any proposed changes in the Tariff Rate (a) to the extent that such changes are inconsistent with the indexing method provided in 18 C.F.R. §342.3, (b) through other rate changing methodologies under 18 C.F.R. §342.4(c), or (c) to the extent the challenge is in response to any proceeding brought against Carrier by a third party that could affect Carrier’s ability to provide transportation services to Shipper under this Agreement, the Schedule or the applicable Tariff.

Section 5.03 Recovery of Certain Costs.

(a) If Carrier agrees to make any expenditures at Shipper’s request, Shipper will reimburse Carrier for such expenditures or, if the Parties agree, the Rate payable by Shipper as set forth in the Schedule will be increased or additional fees shall be added to the Schedule.

(b) If during the Term, any new Law is enacted or promulgated or any existing Law or its interpretation is materially changed, and if such new or changed Law will have a material adverse economic impact upon a Party, then either Party, acting in good faith, shall have the option to request renegotiation of the relevant provisions of this Agreement and/or the affected Schedule(s) with respect to the Parties’ future performance. In such event, the Parties will meet and negotiate in good faith amendments to this Agreement and the affected Schedule(s) to conform this Agreement and the affected Schedule(s) to the new or changed Law while preserving the Parties’ economic, operational, commercial and competitive arrangements in accordance with the understandings set forth in this Agreement and the affected Schedule(s).

Article VI.

Monthly Statement and Payment

Section 6.01 Monthly Statement. Within 10 Days after the end of each Month, Carrier shall provide Shipper with a statement (a “Monthly Statement”) for such preceding Month, which statement shall include, for each Product: (i) the volume injected into the Pipeline at an Origin Point, (ii) the applicable Rate, (iii) any volume losses or gains (if calculated hereunder), and (iv) the aggregate dollar amount due to Carrier (after application of any Quarterly Surplus Volume credit to which Shipper may be entitled pursuant to the Schedule). If requested by Shipper, Carrier shall provide Shipper with copies of individual meter tickets for such Month, if available. Each Monthly Statement immediately following the last Month in each Calendar Quarter shall include a report that sets forth the amount of the Quarterly Deficiency Volume, if any, or Quarterly Surplus Volume, if any, and any Quarterly Deficiency Payment that may be due and payable by Shipper.

Section 6.02 Payment. Payment of the amount(s) identified on each Monthly Statement shall be due, without setoff or discount 10 Business Days after such Monthly Statement is received. All payments shall be made to Carrier in immediately available funds to an account specified in writing by Carrier from time to time. Any bank charges incurred by Shipper in remitting funds shall be borne by Shipper. Acceptance by Carrier of any payment from Shipper for any charge or service after termination or expiration of the Schedule shall not be deemed a renewal of the Schedule or a waiver by Carrier of any default by Shipper under the Schedule or this Agreement.

Section 6.03 Interest. Any undisputed amount payable by Shipper hereunder shall, if not paid when due, bear interest at the Interest Rate from the payment due date until, but excluding, the date payment is received by Carrier.

Section 6.04 Disputes. If Shipper reasonably disputes any Monthly Statement, in whole or in part, Shipper shall, within 10 Business Days after receipt of the Monthly Statement, notify Carrier in writing of the dispute and shall pay the undisputed portion pursuant to the terms of Section 6.02. The Parties agree to promptly and in good faith negotiate a resolution to any such dispute. In the event the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute, either Party may pursue any remedy available at law or in equity to enforce its rights hereunder. In the event that it is determined or agreed that

Shipper must or will pay the disputed amount then Shipper shall pay interest at the Interest Rate from and including the original payment due date until, but excluding, the date the disputed amount is received by Carrier. If Shipper fails to notify Carrier of any dispute with respect to a Monthly Statement within 10 Business Days of receipt of such Monthly Statement, such Monthly Statement shall be deemed final and binding, absent fraud.

Section 6.05 Audit. Carrier will retain its books and records related to the charges to Shipper for services provided under this Agreement and the Schedule for a period of two years from the date the services are rendered. Shipper may audit such books and records at Carrier’s offices where such books and records are stored upon not less than 15 Days’ prior written notice. Any such audit will be at Shipper’s expense and will take place during Carrier’s business hours.

Article VII.

Title; Custody

Section 7.01 Title. Shipper shall retain title to all of Shipper’s Products in transit on the Pipeline at all times. This provision does not preclude Shipper from any intraline transfer of title to a third party; in the event of such a transfer, such third party, and not Carrier, shall have title to the affected Product pursuant to the terms of the relevant agreement between Shipper and such third party.

Section 7.02 Custody. Carrier agrees to use reasonable care in the handling of Product while the Product is in Carrier’s custody. Carrier shall be deemed to have custody of a Product injected into the Pipeline from the time such Product passes through the flange connection between the relevant Origin Point on the Pipeline until it is delivered to Shipper or, at the direction of Shipper, to a third party through the flange connection at the Delivery Point.

Article VIII.

Quality

Section 8.01 Product Specifications. Shipper will deliver to the Origin Point only Product of the type specified in the Schedule and that otherwise complies with the Specifications and any specifications imposed by Law. Shipper agrees not to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Terminal any Non-Conforming Product.

Section 8.02 Quality Determination. Except as otherwise provided in a Schedule, the quality of the Product shall be determined in accordance with the latest established API/ASTM standards.

Section 8.03 Non-Conforming Products. Shipper shall be liable for all reasonable costs and losses in curing, removing, or recovering any Non-Conforming Products, except to the extent that such Non-Conforming Products fail to meet Specifications due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Carrier. After such consultation with Shipper as may be practical under the circumstances, but otherwise at Carrier’s sole discretion, Carrier may attempt to blend the Non-Conforming Products, remove and dispose of the Non-Conforming Products, or, if necessary, recover any Non-Conforming Products from field locations and, except to the extent that such Non-Conforming Products fail to meet Specifications due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Carrier, Shipper shall reimburse Carrier for all reasonable costs associated therewith. Except to the extent that such Non-Conforming

Products fail to meet Specifications due to the negligence or willful misconduct of Carrier, if Shipper’s Non-Conforming Products cause any contamination, dilution or other damages to the petroleum products or other commodities of other customers of Carrier, Shipper agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Carrier Affiliated Parties harmless from and against any Claims incurred by, or charged against any of the Carrier Affiliated Parties, as a result of such event and shall be responsible for all costs and liabilities associated with or incurred as a result of such event.

Article IX.

Volume Determinations

Section 9.01 Measurement. Measurements, volume corrections, equipment, procedures, calculations and practices used for custody transfer determinations will be made in accordance with the most current API Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards (“MPMS”). All equipment used for custody transfer measurements shall be calibrated at least quarterly, but more often if necessary. Shipper shall have the right to review and receive copies of measurement and calibration records, including maintenance, calibration or replacement of any device used to measure Shipper’s Product.

Section 9.02 Volume Determinations. Volume determinations shall be adjusted to a temperature of 60° Fahrenheit and a pressure of one standard atmosphere 14.696 psia for liquids with equilibrium vapor pressure less than or equal to 14.696 psia and at the equilibrium vapor pressure for liquids with an equilibrium vapor pressure greater than to 14.696 psia pursuant to the most recent edition of the MPMS, Chapter 11 (according to whichever table is relevant to the Product being measured). Except as otherwise provided in the Schedule or the applicable Tariff, if any, the volume of Products received at the Origin Point and delivered at the Delivery Point will be determined using one of the following methods, in order of preference: (i) by calibrated custody transfer grade meter, or if a custody transfer grade meter is not available, by calibrated meter, if available, (ii) by manually gauging the static tanks at the Origin Point or the Delivery Point, (iii) by vessel gauges, or (iv) if none of the foregoing are available by applying inventory changes to receipts to calculate deliveries and vice versa.

Section 9.03 Shipper’s Right to Witness. A representative of Shipper may witness the testing, calibration of equipment and meter reading, at Shipper’s expense. In the absence of a representative of Shipper, Carrier’s measurements shall be deemed to be accurate, absent fraud.

Section 9.04 Line Fill. Shipper will at all times be responsible for providing that share of the volume of Product required for line fill, tank bottoms and working stock in each Pipeline equal to the ratio that Shipper’s deliveries bear to the total of all deliveries out of the Pipeline and otherwise necessary for the efficient operation of the Pipeline.

Article X.
Volume Losses

Section 10.01 Volume Losses. Except as set forth in the applicable Tariff, Carrier shall have no liability whatsoever to Shipper for any loss of, damage to or downgrading of Shipper’s Product, unless and to the extent such loss or damage results from Carrier’s gross negligence or willful

misconduct. In no event shall Carrier be liable for more than the replacement of lost or damaged Product or, at its option, payment of the replacement cost of any lost or damaged Product. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Pipeline becomes equipped to measure volume gains and losses through the installation of custody transfer meters and Carrier begins to accept third-party petroleum products or other commodities for transportation on the Pipeline, Carrier shall establish an appropriate loss allowance and allocate gains and losses among Shipper and the third-party customers in accordance with standard industry practices.

Section 10.02 Pass-Through of Volume Losses or Gains. To the extent Carrier is required to make any payments to or is due any amounts from the operator of the Pipeline with respect to any volume losses or gains, as applicable, with respect to any of Shipper’s Products, such amounts shall be passed through to Shipper, and each of Shipper and Carrier shall be required to remit to the other Party any such amounts due to or received from the operator of the Pipeline, as applicable, in respect of such volume losses or gains.

Article XI.

Insurance

Section 11.01 Insurance. Insurance for Shipper’s Products, if any, that may be desired by Shipper, shall be carried by Shipper at Shipper’s expense. Should Shipper elect to carry insurance, then without prejudice to Shipper’s rights to directly assert self insured claims for losses, each policy of insurance shall be endorsed to provide a waiver of subrogation rights against Carrier and the Partnership and their respective Affiliates, to the extent of the liabilities and obligations assumed by Shipper under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in Section 10.01 to the contrary, Carrier shall not be liable to Shipper for Product losses or shortages for which Shipper is compensated by its third party insurer.

(a) In the event of any Product spill or other environmentally polluting discharge caused by Carrier’s operation of the Pipeline, any clean-up resulting from any such spill or discharge and any liability resulting from such spill or discharge shall be the responsibility of Carrier, except to

the extent such spill or discharge is caused by Shipper or in connection with Shipper or a third party receiving Products on Shipper’s behalf, at its request or for its benefit.

(b) In the event and to the extent of any Product spill or other environmentally polluting discharge caused by Shipper or in connection with Shipper or a third party receiving Products on Shipper’s behalf, at its request or for its benefit, Carrier is authorized to commence containment or clean-up operations as deemed appropriate or necessary by Carrier or as required by any Governmental Authority, and Carrier shall notify Shipper of such operations as soon as practicable. All liability and reasonable costs of containment or clean-up shall be borne by Shipper except that, in the event a spill or discharge is caused by the joint negligence of both Carrier and Shipper or a third party receiving Products on Shipper’s behalf, at its request or for its benefit, liability and costs of containment or clean-up shall be borne jointly by Carrier and Shipper in proportion to each Party’s respective negligence.

(c) For purposes of this Section 13.01, the negligence of a third party receiving Products on Shipper’s behalf, at its request or for its benefit shall be attributed to Shipper.

If any accident, spill or incident involving Shipper’s Products requires a report to be submitted to a Governmental Authority, Carrier shall notify such Governmental Authority as soon as reasonably practical in compliance with applicable Law. A copy of any such required report shall be delivered to Shipper.

Article XIV.

Force Majeure

Section 14.01 Suspension During Force Majeure Events. Promptly upon the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, a Party affected by a Force Majeure Event shall provide the other Party with written notice of the occurrence of such Force Majeure Event.

Section 14.02 Carrier Force Majeure. If a Force Majeure Event is declared by Carrier or to the extent the Force Majeure Event impacts the Pipeline and Shipper declares such Force Majeure Event (each a “Carrier Force Majeure”), each Party’s obligations (other than an obligation arising prior to the Carrier Force Majeure to pay any amounts due to the other Party) shall be temporarily suspended during the occurrence of, and for the entire duration of, the Carrier Force Majeure to the extent that such Carrier Force Majeure prevents either Party from performing its obligations under

this Agreement and the Schedule. The Minimum Quarterly Commitment during the period of the Carrier Force Majeure shall be ratably reduced to reflect the suspension.

Section 14.03 Shipper Force Majeure. If a Force Majeure Event other than a Carrier Force Majeure, (a “Shipper Force Majeure”) is declared by Shipper, thereby precluding Shipper from performing its obligations under the Schedule and this Agreement, including a Shipper Force Majeure impacting the Refinery that affects Shipper’s performance under the Schedule and this Agreement, Shipper’s obligations (other than Shipper’s obligation arising prior to the Suspension Date to pay any amounts due to Carrier) shall be temporarily suspended beginning on the Suspension Date and for the entire remaining duration of such Shipper Force Majeure. The Minimum Quarterly Commitment during the period of the Shipper Force Majeure following the Suspension Date shall be ratably reduced to reflect the suspension.

Section 14.04 Obligation to Remedy Force Majeure Events. A Party affected by a Force Majeure Event shall take commercially reasonable steps to remedy such situation so that it may resume the full performance of its obligations under this Agreement and the Schedule as soon as reasonably practicable.

Section 14.05 Strikes and Lockouts. The settlement of strikes, lockouts and other labor disturbances shall be entirely within the discretion of the affected Party and the requirement to remedy a Force Majeure event as soon as reasonably practicable shall not require the settlement of strikes or lockouts by acceding to the demands of an opposing Person when such course is reasonably inadvisable in the discretion of the Party having the difficulty.

Section 14.06 Action in Emergencies. Carrier may temporarily suspend performance of the services provided by Carrier hereunder to prevent injuries to persons, damage to property or harm to the environment.

Article XV.

Limitation of Liability

Section 15.01 Limitation of Liability.
