Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during the Term, MPL shall store, up to the Commitment, all Crude Petroleum tendered by MPC in one or more Storage Tanks at the Tank Farm. At any time after any such Crude Petroleum has been received at the Tank Farm, MPL may, for operational, environmental or safety reasons, move such Crude Petroleum to one or more other Storage Tanks.

3. TERM

This Agreement shall commence on October 1, 2012 (the “Effective Date”) and shall continue through December 31, 2015 (the “Initial Term”). This Agreement will automatically renew for successive one (1) year renewal terms (each a “Renewal Term”) unless either Party provides the other Party with written notice of its intent to terminate at least six (6) months prior to the end of the Term or any Renewal Term. The Initial Term together with all Renewal Terms, if any, shall be referred to in this Agreement as the “Term”.

4. STORAGE AND TRANSPORTATION FEE

4.1 Storage and Transportation Fee. During the Term, MPC shall pay a monthly fee (the “Storage and Transportation Fee”), for storage and transportation services equal to (a) the Current Rate multiplied by (b) the Commitment; provided, however, that the fee owed during the Month in which the Effective Date occurs shall be prorated in accordance with the ratio of (i) the number of Days in such Month during which this Agreement is effective to (ii) the total number of Days in such Month. The initial Current Rate shall be $[ ] per Barrel. On January 1, 2014 and annually thereafter, the Current Rate shall be increased (but not decreased) by the same percentage, if any, equal to any upward change in the Producer Price Index for Finished Goods, as reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, during the preceding year. Each Month during the Term, MPL shall issue an invoice to MPC for amounts due for the preceding month, and payment shall be due and payable within fifteen (15) Days from the date of invoice. Any past due amounts owed by MPC to MPL shall accrue interest, payable on demand, at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum from the due date of the payment through the actual date of payment.

4.2 Adjustments to the Commitment. The Commitment will be decreased due to any of the following:

(a)	With respect to any period in which MPL is required to provide any of the Storage Tanks’ capacity to any third party in order to comply with any Applicable Law, the Commitment shall be reduced to equal the volume of capacity in the Storage Tanks that is available for MPC’s use during such period;

(b)

With respect to any period in which MPL is unable to provide storage services with respect to the entire Commitment due to the occurrence of a Force Majeure event, then the Commitment shall be reduced to equal the volume of capacity in the Storage Tanks that is available for MPC’s use during the period of such Force Majeure event; and

(c)

With respect to any period in which MPL is unable to provide storage services with respect to the entire Commitment due to MPL’s repair or maintenance activities, then the Commitment shall be reduced to equal the volume of capacity in the Storage Tanks that is available for MPC’s use during the period of any such repair or maintenance activity.

4.3 Negotiated Storage and Transportation Fee. Within six (6) months prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, the Parties will negotiate in good faith to agree on the Storage and Transportation Fee for the following Renewal Term. If the Parties cannot agree on the Storage and Transportation Fee for any Renewal Term prior to the commencement of such Renewal Term, the Storage and Transportation Fee in effect immediately prior to the commencement of such Renewal Term shall remain in effect for the duration of such Renewal Term, unless the parties otherwise mutually agree.

4.4 Additional Charges. The Storage and Transportation Fee does not include any loading, handling, transfer and other charges as stated in MPL’s applicable tariffs.

5. CAPABILITIES OF FACILITIES

5.1 Service Interruptions. MPL shall use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize the interruption of service at the Tank Farm and Storage Tanks. MPL shall promptly inform MPC’s operational personnel of any anticipated partial or complete interruption of service at the Tank Farm or Storage Tanks, including relevant information about the nature, extent, cause and expected duration of the interruption and the actions MPL is taking to resume full operations; provided, however, that MPL shall not have any liability for any failure to notify, or delay in notifying, MPC of any such matters except to the extent MPC has been materially prejudiced or damaged by such failure or delay.

5.2 Maintenance and Repair Standards. Subject to Force Majeure and interruptions for routine repair and maintenance consistent with customary storage tank industry standards, MPL shall maintain the Tank Farm and Storage Tanks in a condition and with a capacity sufficient to store the Commitment. If any event (including a Force Majeure event) occurs that reduces the capacity of the Tank Farm and, as a result of such event, MPL is unable to provide storage for the entire Commitment, then within a reasonable period of time following such event, MPL shall make all necessary repairs to restore the capacity of the Storage Tanks. All such restoration of capacity of the Storage Tanks shall be at MPL’s cost and expense unless the damage creating the need for such repairs was caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of MPC, its employees, agents or customers. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 5.2 shall require MPL to increase the aggregate capacity of the Tank Farm or refuse to provide storage services to a third party that MPL is required to provide pursuant to Applicable Law or any existing agreement with such third party.

6. SCHEDULING

All scheduling of Crude Petroleum delivery into and redelivery out of the Tank Farm will be made pursuant to MPL’s applicable tariff procedures for nominating movements within MPL’s crude systems and MPL’s effective pipeline operation schedules.

7. SERVICES; VOLUME LOSSES

(a)	Services. The services provided by MPL pursuant to this Agreement shall only consist of receipt, storage and redelivery of Crude Petroleum at the Tank Farm.

(b)

Volume Losses. MPL shall have no obligation to measure volume gains and losses and shall have no liability whatsoever for physical losses that may result from the storage of Crude Petroleum at the Tank Farm. MPC will bear any volume losses that may result from the storage of Crude Petroleum at the Tank Farm.

8. CUSTODY, TRANSFER AND TITLE

While MPL shall have physical custody of MPC’s Crude Petroleum while in storage at the Tank Farm, at no time shall MPL acquire or be deemed to acquire title to Crude Petroleum. MPC hereby warrants that it shall have good title to and the right to deliver, store and receive Crude Petroleum pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. MPC acknowledges that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, MPC acquires no right, title or interest in or to any of the Storage Tanks, except the right to store and receive Crude Petroleum to, at and from the Storage Tanks as set forth herein. MPL shall retain ownership and operational control of the Tank Farm, all Storage Tanks, associated facilities and equipment used in connection with the provision of the storage services at all times.

9. OPERATING PROCEDURES

9.1 Operating Procedures for MPC. MPC hereby agrees to be subject to the direction of MPL and to strictly abide by any and all Applicable Laws and MPL policies and procedures relating to the operation and use of the Storage Tanks that generally apply to receipt, delivery, redelivery and storage of Crude Petroleum in the Storage Tanks (collectively, the “Operating Procedures”).

If during the Term, any new Applicable Law becomes effective or any existing Applicable Law or its interpretation is materially changed, which change is not addressed by another provision of this Agreement and which has 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 with respect to future performance. The Parties shall then meet and negotiate in good faith amendments to this Agreement that will conform this Agreement to the new Applicable Law while preserving the Parties’ economic, operational, commercial and competitive arrangements in accordance with the understandings set forth herein.

12. LIMITATION ON LIABILITY

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither Party shall be liable or responsible to the other Party or such other Party’s affiliated Persons for any consequential, incidental, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits or revenues (collectively referred to as “special damages”) incurred by such Party or its affiliated Persons that arise out of or relate to this Agreement, regardless of whether any such claim arises under or results from contract, tort, or strict liability; provided that the foregoing limitation is not intended and shall not affect damages imposed in favor of any third party not affiliated with a Party to this Agreement.

14. DEFAULT AND TERMINATION

14.1 Termination for Default. A Party shall be in default under this Agreement if:

(b)

the Party (A) files a petition or otherwise commences, authorizes or acquiesces in the commencement of a proceeding or cause of action under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar Applicable Law, or has any such petition filed or commenced against it, (B) makes general assignment for the benefit of creditors, (C) otherwise becomes bankrupt or insolvent (however evidenced) or (D) has a liquidator, administrator, receiver, trustee, conservator or similar official appointed with respect to it or any substantial portion of its property or assets.

14.2 Obligations at Termination. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement, MPC shall promptly take delivery of all of its Crude Petroleum from the Storage Tanks within thirty (30) Days of such expiration or termination. In the event MPC does not take delivery of all of the Crude Petroleum within such thirty (30) Day period, MPC shall be assessed a Monthly holdover storage fee on all Crude Petroleum held in storage more than thirty (30) Days beyond the termination or expiration of this Agreement until such time the entire volume of MPC’s Crude Petroleum is removed from the Storage Tanks.
