It is understood and agreed that (x) cash and accounts receivable relating to the Purchased Assets, the BLADES Application and Tempest Software shall not be deemed to be Purchased Assets and (y) all rights to the name "Hess", "▇▇▇▇ Oil" and related trademarks, service marks, trade dress, domain names and other indicia of origin and any other indicia of origin that is confusingly similar to the foregoing, shall not be Purchased Assets.

(a) Purchaser acknowledges that certain consents to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be required from third parties and that such consents have not been and may not be obtained. From and after the date hereof, the parties hereto shall have a continuing obligation to use their commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other and to obtain promptly all authorizations, approvals, consents, negative clearances or waivers of third parties as may be required to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, that neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to repay any indebtedness for borrowed money, amend any contract to increase the amount payable thereunder or otherwise to be materially more burdensome to Seller or any of its Affiliates, commence any litigation, offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third party, pay any amount or bear any other incremental economic burden to obtain any such authorization, approval, consent, negative clearance or waiver; and provided, further, that no party hereto shall incur any expense that would be payable by any other party hereto without the consent of such other party.

Purchaser further agrees that no representation, warranty or covenant of Seller contained herein shall be breached, or deemed breached, and no condition to Purchaser's obligations to close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be deemed not satisfied as a result of (i) the failure to obtain any such consent or as a result of any such default, acceleration or termination or (ii) any lawsuit, action, claim or investigation commenced or threatened by or on behalf of any Person arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any consent or any such default, acceleration or termination; provided, that this sentence shall not have the effect of curing any breach by Seller of Section 4.2(b).

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, to the extent that the sale, conveyance, transfer, assignment or delivery or attempted sale, conveyance, transfer, assignment or delivery to Purchaser of any Purchased Asset would require any third party's authorization, approval, consent, negative clearance or waiver and such authorization, approval, consent, negative clearance or waiver shall not have been obtained prior to the Closing, this Agreement shall not constitute a sale, conveyance, transfer, assignment or delivery, or an attempted sale, conveyance, transfer, assignment or delivery of such Purchased Asset.

ARTICLE III

PURCHASE PRICE

3.1 Purchase Price. (a) At least three (3) Business Days, but not more than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser a statement setting forth Seller's good faith estimate of the amount of the Inventory Value (the "Estimated Inventory Value") determined in accordance with the procedures set forth in Exhibit A hereto (except that for purposes of calculating the Estimated Inventory Value, the reference date for the applicable price quotations described in Exhibit A shall be determined by Seller).

(b) At the Closing, Purchaser shall pay to Seller, in full consideration for the sale and transfer by Seller of the Purchased Assets (subject to the adjustments set forth in this Section 3.1), free and clear of any taxes, fees and other deductions, the Initial Purchase Price, such payment to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller in writing to Purchaser at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing.

(c) Commencing on the Closing Date, the volume and quality of Inventory (the "Inventory Measurement") shall be measured by two (2) independent inspectors (the "Field Inspectors") appointed by Seller and Purchaser and mutually acceptable to both parties; provided, that the volume and quality of Inventory described in clause (b) of the definition of "Inventory" shall be measured upon its delivery to the applicable Terminal or Off-Site Storage Facility; provided, further, that in the case of any Inventory described in clause (a)(ii) and (iii) of the definition of Inventory, the volume and quality of such Inventory for purposes of the Inventory Measurement shall be the volume and quality of such Inventory as set forth in the ▇▇▇▇ of lading or, to the extent that in accordance with customary industry practice an independent inspector has measured the volume and quality of such Inventory, the independent inspector's report applicable to such Inventory (it being understood that the volume and quality of such Inventory shall not be subject to measurement by the Field Inspectors). The Inventory Measurement shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures set forth in Exhibit C hereto. Seller and Purchaser shall be entitled, at their respective own expense, to have Representatives present for the Inventory Measurement at each Terminal and at each Off-Site Storage Facility so long as such Representatives do not interfere with the tasks or responsibilities of the Field Inspectors. If the Field Inspectors at any Terminal or at any Off-Site Storage Facility are initially unable to agree upon any volumes or quality of any Inventory, then such Field Inspectors shall retest and re-measure until such Field Inspectors are in agreement. For each Terminal and each Off-Site Storage Facility, the respective Field Inspectors shall issue a joint written report (the "Inventory Report") to both Seller and Purchaser within five (5) days after the later of (i) the Closing Date and (ii) if any Inventory described in clause (b) of the definition of Inventory is

-8-

measured, the last date on which all Inventory has been delivered to the relevant Terminal and/or Off-Site Storage Facility, setting forth their final determination of the volume and quality of Inventory at such Terminal or Off-Site Storage Facility, as applicable, as of the Closing Date. The fees and expenses of the Field Inspectors shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Seller and fifty percent (50%) by Purchaser.

(d) Within ten (10) Business Days of the Inventory Results Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser a statement (the "Seller's Proposed Calculations") setting forth Seller's good faith calculations of the Inventory Value based on the Inventory Report, bills of lading and independent inspectors' reports.

(e) If Purchaser does not object to the Seller's Proposed Calculations by written notice of objection (the "Notice of Objection") delivered to Seller within ten (10) Business Days after Purchaser's receipt of the Seller's Proposed Calculations, the calculation of the Inventory Value pursuant to the Seller's Proposed Calculations shall be deemed final and binding. A Notice of Objection under this Section 3.1(e) shall set forth in reasonable detail Purchaser's alternative calculations of the Inventory Value. If Purchaser delivers a Notice of Objection to Seller within the ten (10) Business Day period referred to above, then Seller and Purchaser shall promptly endeavor in good faith to resolve the Inventory Value. If a written agreement determining the Inventory Value has not been reached within ten (10) Business Days (or such longer period as may be agreed by Seller and Purchaser) after the date of receipt by Seller of the Notice of Objection, the resolution of such disputed amounts shall be submitted to an independent arbitrator mutually acceptable to Purchaser and Seller (the "Arbitrator"). Seller and Purchaser shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Arbitrator to render a decision in accordance with this Section 3.1(e) along with a statement of reasons therefor within thirty (30) days of the submission of the Inventory Value to the Arbitrator. The decision of the Arbitrator with respect to the Inventory Value shall be final and binding upon each party hereto and the decision of the Arbitrator shall constitute an arbitral award that is final, binding and non-appealable and upon which a judgment may be entered by a court having jurisdiction thereover. If Seller and Purchaser submit the Inventory Value to the Arbitrator for resolution, Seller and Purchaser shall each pay their own costs and expenses incurred under this Section 3.1(e), and the party whose position with respect to the Inventory Value is furthest from the Inventory Value determined by the Arbitrator shall pay the costs and expenses of the Arbitrator.

(f) If the amount of (i) the Inventory Value as determined pursuant to Section 3.1(e), less (ii) the Estimated Inventory Value (such amount, the "Purchase Price Adjustment") is (x) a positive number, Purchaser shall pay to Seller the Purchase Price Adjustment, or (y) a negative number, Seller shall pay to Purchaser the absolute value of the Purchase Price Adjustment. The Initial Purchase Price, as adjusted pursuant to this Section 3.1(f), shall be the "Final Purchase Price". The Purchase Price Adjustment shall be paid within three (3) Business Days of the determination of the Inventory Value pursuant to Section 3.1(e) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated to the paying party in writing promptly following such determination. The Purchase Price Adjustment and any payment made pursuant to the indemnification obligations arising under this Agreement shall be treated as adjustments to the purchase price for federal, state, territory, local and foreign income tax purposes.

-9-

3.2 Allocation of Purchase Price. Seller and Purchaser will endeavor in good faith to agree, prior to the Closing Date, on a reasonable allocation of the Initial Purchase Price and the Final Purchase Price among the Purchased Assets other than the Inventory (the "Purchase Price Allocation"), which shall be revised to take into account subsequent adjustments to the Initial Purchase Price and the Final Purchase Price. The parties agree that the Estimated Inventory Value shall be allocated solely to the Purchased Assets that comprise Inventory. Except as may be otherwise agreed by the parties hereto, neither party shall file any tax return or other document or otherwise take any position which is inconsistent with the Purchase Price Allocation if agreed within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, unless required by applicable Law or as necessary to settle a dispute regarding such allocation with a Governmental Entity, and the parties hereto shall promptly inform one another of any challenge by any Governmental Entity to the Purchase Price Allocation and shall consult with and keep one another informed with respect to the state of, and any discussion, proposal or submission with respect to, such challenge and shall cooperate in good faith to promptly amend the Purchase Price Allocation as appropriate in the event of any such challenge. If the Purchase Price Allocation is not agreed by the parties within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Seller and Purchaser may each allocate the Initial Purchase Price and the Final Purchase Price as they deem appropriate; provided, that in all cases the Inventory Value shall be allocated solely to the Purchased Assets that comprise Inventory.

(a) Purchaser shall make offers of employment in accordance with this Section 6.3 at least twenty (20) days prior to the Closing Date, with such employment to commence as of immediately following the Closing, to each Business Employee at a base salary equivalent to such Business Employee's base salary in effect on the Closing Date and with bonus opportunity and benefits that are comparable to those received by similarly situated U.S. employees of Parent's Affiliates. Purchaser shall be responsible for all salaries or wages (including commissions, bonuses, incentive pay, overtime, premium pay, shift differentials and severance pay) accruing after the Closing with respect to the Affected Employees' service with Purchaser and its Affiliates following the Closing.

(b) Each Affected Employee shall be provided credit by Purchaser for all service with Seller and its Affiliates, to the same extent as such service was credited for such purpose by Seller and its Affiliates and any predecessor employer, under all employee benefit plans, programs, policies and benefits of Purchaser or its Affiliates for all purposes (including eligibility, vesting and benefit accrual) to the extent (i) the Affected Employee is eligible to participate under such plans, programs, polices and benefits and (ii) it is permitted thereunder.

(c) Purchaser shall be responsible for all accrued vacation entitlements, including unused vacation days, for Affected Employees as of the Closing Date consistent with Purchaser's vacation policies in respect of the use thereof.

Claims incurred with respect to Business Employees and their eligible spouses and dependents for welfare benefits prior to the Closing Date shall be the responsibility of the welfare benefit plans of Seller. For purposes of this Section 6.3(d), a claim will be deemed "incurred" on the date that the event that gives rise to the claim occurs (for purposes of life insurance, accident and disability benefits) or on the date that treatment, services or products are provided (in the case of healthcare benefits).

(e) Purchaser shall assume responsibility for compliance with the requirements of Section 4980B of the Code and part 6 of subtitle B of Title I of ERISA and any

-17-

similar state or territory Law ("COBRA"), including the provision of continuation coverage, with respect to all Affected Employees, and their spouses and dependents, for whom a qualifying event under a welfare plan of Purchaser or its Affiliates occurs on or after the Closing Date.

In addition, immediate employment in the same or comparable positions will be offered by Purchaser to those Business Employees returning from authorized leaves of absence such as parental, family and medical, and military leaves or other leaves where return to work is subject to statutory requirements. Such employees returning from disability, leaves of absence or otherwise will be subject to the same pay and benefits arrangements as required by Section 6.3(a) above.

(g) Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall: (i) confer upon any Business Employee, or any Representative of any such employee, any rights or remedies, including any right to employment or continued employment or any level of pay or benefits for any period or terms of employment, of any nature whatsoever; or (ii) constitute or be deemed to constitute an amendment to any Employee Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan for any purpose.

Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Terminals Sale Closing may occur prior to or simultaneous with the Closing and, if it does occur prior to or simultaneous with the Closing, that Seller shall enter into Assumed Storage Contracts with Buckeye Partners L.P. or its Affiliates. If the Terminals Sale Closing does not occur prior to or simultaneous with the Closing, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Seller will assign to Buckeye Partners L.P. or its Affiliates the Storage Agreements entered into with Purchaser and Parent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Furthermore, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the earlier of the Closing Date and the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.1, Seller shall, upon reasonable prior notice and during regular business hours, afford Purchaser and its Representatives reasonable access to the personnel, properties (including a Purchaser employee being regularly present at such properties), books and records of Seller relating to the Seller's Bunker Oil Business, the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities to the extent Purchaser reasonably believes necessary or advisable to familiarize itself with the Seller's Bunker Oil Business operations and to prepare for the transition thereof to Purchaser; provided, that Seller may restrict the foregoing access to the extent that in the reasonable judgment of Seller, any applicable Law requires it to

-18-

restrict such access; provided, further, that no such access shall unreasonablyinterfere with Seller's operation of its business.

6.5 Efforts to Close; Antitrust Laws. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.5, Purchaser and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates and Representatives to, cooperate and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action, and to make, or cause to be made, all filings necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws and to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including their respective commercially reasonable efforts to fulfill the conditions to consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby set forth in Section 7.2 and Section 7.3; provided, that neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to repay any indebtedness for borrowed money, amend any contract to increase the amount payable thereunder or otherwise to be materially more burdensome to Seller or any of its Affiliates, commence any litigation, offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third party, pay any amount or bear any other incremental economic burden; and provided, further, that no party hereto shall incur any expense that would be payable by any other party hereto without the consent of such other party.

(d) Purchaser and Seller shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to respond to requests, if any, as may be made by an Antitrust Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement under any Antitrust Law.

(e) Purchaser shall take all actions necessary to obtain the required consents from Antitrust Authorities, including antitrust clearance under the HSR Act and under any other Antitrust Law, to the extent required, as promptly as practicable, and in any event prior to the End Date. Purchaser shall, at Purchaser's sole cost, resolve objections, if any, and comply with all restrictions and conditions, if any, imposed or requested by any Antitrust Authority with respect to Antitrust Laws in connection with granting any necessary clearance or terminating any applicable waiting period, including (i) agreeing to sell, divest, hold separate, license, cause a third party to acquire, or otherwise dispose of, any subsidiary, operations, divisions, businesses, product lines, customers or assets of Purchaser or its Affiliates contemporaneously with or after the Closing and regardless as to whether a third party purchaser has been identified or approved prior to the Closing (a "Divestiture"), (ii) taking or committing to take such other actions that

-19-

may limit Purchaser or its Affiliates' freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain, one or more of its operations, divisions, businesses, product lines, customers or assets and (iii) entering into any Order, consent decree or other agreement to effectuate any of the foregoing.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Purchaser agrees that it shall:

(i) terminate any contract or other business relationship as may be required to obtain any necessary clearance of any Antitrust Authority or to obtain termination of any applicable waiting period under any Antitrust Laws;

(ii) not extend any waiting period or enter into any agreement or understanding with any Antitrust Authority to extend any waiting period; and

Seller shall be permitted to participate in all aspects of the defense of such proceedings and Purchaser shall use its best efforts to prevail in such proceedings. Purchaser shall be responsible for the payment of its own expenses, including legal fees and expenses, in seeking to prevent the entry of any such Order.

(g) In furtherance of the foregoing, Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith with all Antitrust Authorities and all third parties in connection with a Divestiture or any other matter referred to in Section 6.5(e) in order to enter into definitive agreements with all such Persons as promptly as practicable.

-20-

termination of any applicable waiting period; (ii) increase the risk of any Governmental Entity entering an Order prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or any other transaction contemplated hereby; (iii) increase the risk of not being able to remove any such Order on appeal or otherwise; or (iv) delay or prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

8.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties.The respective representations and warranties of Seller, Parent and Purchaser contained in this Agreement shall survive until the date that is twelve (12) months from the Closing Date. Each covenant and other agreement of Parent, Purchaser or Seller herein shall survive in accordance with its terms.

8.2 Indemnification by Seller. Subject to the other provisions of this Article VIII, Seller shall indemnify Purchaser and its Representatives, subsidiaries, direct and indirect parent companies, shareholders, partners, members, managers, officers and directors (the "Purchaser Indemnitees") and save and hold each of them harmless against any Losses suffered, incurred or paid by them as a result of, arising out of or related to (a) any failure of any representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement to be true and correct (without giving effect to any qualifications as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect or any similar qualification therein, other than with respect to Section 4.7 and Section 4.10) in all respects on and as of the date hereof and on and as of the Closing Date, (b) any breach of any covenant or agreement by Seller contained in this Agreement and (c) any Retained Liability.

8.3 Indemnification by Purchaser. Subject to the other provisions of this Article VIII, Parent and Purchaser shall jointly and severally indemnify Seller and its Representatives, subsidiaries, direct and indirect parent companies, shareholders, partners, members, managers, officers and directors (the "Seller Indemnitees") and save and hold each of

-23-

them harmless against any Losses suffered, incurred or paid by them as a result of, arising out of, or related to (a) any failure of any representation or warranty made by Parent or Purchaser in this Agreement to be true and correct (without giving effect to any qualifications as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect or any similar qualification therein) in all respects on and as of the date hereof and on and as of the Closing Date, (b) any breach of any covenant or agreement by Parent or Purchaser contained in this Agreement and (c) any Assumed Liability.

8.4 Limitation on Indemnification. No party shall be liable for any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.3(a) until the aggregate amount of Losses which may be recovered from such party pursuant to such provisions equals or exceeds an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the Initial Purchase Price, in which case the Indemnifying Party shall be liable only for the aggregate amount of Losses in excess of such amount; provided, that the maximum aggregate amount of Losses which may be recovered for indemnification from either party pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.3(a) shall be an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the Initial Purchase Price; provided, further, that the maximum aggregate amount of Losses which may be recovered from Seller pursuant to Section 8.2 and Purchaser pursuant to Section 8.3, in each case, shall not exceed an amount equal to the Final Purchase Price.

8.5 Losses Net of Insurance. The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 shall be net of (a) any insurance proceeds (net of any costs of investigation of the underlying claim and of collection) received as an offset against such Loss (each such source of recovery, a "Collateral Source") and (b) an amount equal to the present value of the tax benefit, if any, attributable to such Loss. Each Indemnified Party shall take commercially reasonable steps to mitigate any Losses as soon as reasonably practicable after such Indemnified Party becomes aware of any event which does, or could reasonably be expected to, give rise to any such Losses (including by pursuing recovery from any Collateral Source). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 8.2 or Section 8.3, no indemnification shall be provided under the Agreement with respect to any Losses that are incidental damages, consequential damages, special damages, damages arising out of business interruption or lost profits, damages arising through the application of any multiplier to any Losses or punitive damages; provided that Losses of any Indemnified Party will include any of such Losses to the extent that they are actually adjudicated as due and actually paid by such Indemnified Party to a third party in connection with an indemnified third party claim.

8.6 Indemnification Procedure. (a) Promptly after the incurrence of any Losses which might give rise to indemnification hereunder, the party seeking indemnification (the "Indemnified Party") shall deliver to the party from which indemnification is sought (the "Indemnifying Party") a claim certificate specifying each individual item of Loss with respect to which indemnification is sought, the date such item was paid or incurred and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, breach of covenant or claim to which each such item is related and the computation of the amount to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled hereunder, provided, however, that the failure to timely give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation under this Agreement except to the extent, if any, that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnified Party making the

-24-

claim shall not be required to admit or deny the validity of the facts or circumstances out of which such Losses arose.

(b) If the Indemnifying Party shall object to the indemnification of an Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses specified in any claim certificate, the parties shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the parties with respect to each Loss to which the Indemnifying Party shall have objected. Should the parties be unable to agree as to any particular item, the Indemnified Party shall be permitted to submit such dispute to the courts set forth in Section 10.7.

8.7 Third-Party Claims. If a claim by a third party is made against any Indemnified Party, and if such party intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto under this Article VIII, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such claim by delivery of a claim certificate, provided, however, that the failure to timely give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation under this Agreement except to the extent, if any, that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall have ten (10) days after receipt of such notice to assume the conduct and control, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, through counsel of its choosing, of the settlement or defense of such claim and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with it in connection therewith, including by making available records relating to such claim and furnishing, without expense to the Indemnifying Party and/or its counsel, such employees of the Indemnified Party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of any such claim or for testimony as witnesses in any proceeding relating to such claim. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Purchaser shall not consent to any settlement or compromise of any claim that would require payment by Seller of any amount under Section 8.2 without the written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

8.8 Sole Remedy/Waiver. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, if the Closing occurs, except in this case of fraud, the remedies provided for in this Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedies for any breach of this Agreement or any claims relating to this Agreement, other documents, certificates or agreements delivered in connection with this Agreement, the Assumed Liabilities, the Purchased Assets, or otherwise.

8.9 Parent Guarantee.Parent hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees as a primary obligation to Seller the full, complete and timely payment and performance by Purchaser of all of Purchaser's obligations and assumption of the Assumed Liabilities under this Agreement and any instrument or agreement executed pursuant to this Agreement (all such obligations of Purchaser being the "Purchaser Obligations"). If Purchaser fails or refuses to pay or perform any Purchaser Obligations, Parent shall immediately pay or perform such Purchaser Obligations. This Section 8.9 is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection. There are no conditions precedent to the enforcement of this Section 8.9. The obligations of Parent hereunder shall be continuing, absolute and unconditional and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by: (a) any invalidity, illegality or unenforceability against Purchaser of this Agreement or any agreement executed pursuant to this Agreement; (b) any modification, amendment, restatement, waiver or rescission of, or any consent to the departure from, any of the terms of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement executed pursuant to this Agreement;

-25-

(c) any exercise or non-exercise by Seller of any right or privilege under this Agreement or any agreement executed pursuant to this Agreement or any notice of such exercise or non-exercise; (d) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any Purchaser Obligation, by operation of law or otherwise, or any assignment of any Purchaser Obligation by Seller; (e) any change in the corporate existence structure or ownership of Purchaser; (f) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting Purchaser or Purchaser's assets or any resulting release or discharge of any Purchaser Obligation; (g) any requirement that Seller exhaust any right or remedy or take any action against Purchaser or any other Person before seeking to enforce the obligations of Parent under this Section 8.9; (h) the existence of any defense, set-off or other rights (other than a defense of payment or performance) that Parent may have at any time against Purchaser or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transactions; (i) any other act or failure to act or delay of any kind by Purchaser or any other Person; or (j) any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section 8.9, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Purchaser Obligations or the obligations of Parent hereunder, including all defenses of a surety. This Section 8.9 shall continue to be effective, or be automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment or performance, or any part thereof, of any of the Purchaser Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored, returned or rejected by Seller for any reason, including upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Purchaser, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, Purchaser or any substantial part of Purchaser's property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made. Parent agrees that it will indemnify Seller on demand for all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred by Seller in connection with such rescission or restoration, which amounts shall be in addition to all other obligations hereunder. If Seller is required to refund part or all of any payment of Purchaser with respect to any of the Purchaser Obligations, such payment shall not constitute a release of Parent from any Liability hereunder, and Parent's Liability hereunder shall be reinstated to the fullest extent allowed under applicable Law and shall not be construed to be diminished in any manner.

10.4 Binding Effect; Benefit; Assignment. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except with respect to Article VIII hereof, which shall inure to the benefit of each Purchaser Indemnitee and Seller Indemnitee, all of whom are intended as express third-party beneficiaries thereof, no other Person not party to this Agreement shall be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, that any assignment by Purchaser to (i) Parent or any wholly owned subsidiary of Parent or (ii) following the Closing, to any Person which purchases all or substantially all of the assets of Purchaser, or of the business unit within Purchaser's Affiliated group of companies of which the Bunker Oil Business forms a part or any successor to the Bunker Oil Business or such business unit, may in each case be made without any such consent, but neither Purchaser nor Parent shall be relieved of any of its obligations under this Agreement in the event of such assignment.

10.5 Amendment and Modification. This Agreement may not be amended except by a written instrument executed by Purchaser and Seller.

10.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument. Signed counterparts of this Agreement may be delivered by facsimile and by scanned .pdf image.

10.7 Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE LEGAL RELATIONS BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS RULES THEREOF. THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED WITHIN NEW YORK COUNTY IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OVER ANY AND ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO, WHETHER IN LAW OR EQUITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE AGREEMENTS, INSTRUMENTS AND DOCUMENTS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THE PARTIES CONSENT TO AND AGREE TO SUBMIT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO ASSERT IN ANY SUCH DISPUTE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY CLAIM THAT (A) SUCH PARTY IS NOT PERSONALLY SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS, (B) SUCH PARTY AND SUCH PARTY'S PROPERTY IS IMMUNE FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS ISSUED BY SUCH COURTS OR (C) ANY LITIGATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING COMMENCED IN SUCH COURTS IS BROUGHT

-29-

IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE THAT MAILING OF PROCESS OR OTHER PAPERS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN THE MANNER PROVIDED IN SECTION 10.2, OR IN SUCH OTHER MANNER AS MAY BE PERMITTED BY LAW, SHALL BE VALID AND SUFFICIENT SERVICE THEREOF AND HEREBY WAIVE ANY OBJECTIONS TO SERVICE ACCOMPLISHED IN THE MANNER HEREIN PROVIDED.

10.8 Severability. If any term, provision, agreement, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, agreements, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby are not affected in any manner adverse to any party hereto. Upon such a determination, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible in a reasonably acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

10.9 Waiver of Jury Trial. PURCHASER AND SELLER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, AND SHALL CAUSE THEIR RESPECTIVE SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES TO WAIVE, ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

10.10 Rules of Construction. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and have participated jointly in the drafting of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any Law, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

10.11 Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

10.12 Specific Enforcement. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached or threatened to be breached and that an award of money damages would be inadequate in such event. Accordingly, it is acknowledged that the parties shall be entitled to equitable relief, without proof of actual damages, including an Order for specific performance to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity as a remedy for any such breach or threatened breach. Each party further agrees that neither the other party nor any other Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 10.12, and each party hereto irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument. Each party further agrees that the only permitted objection that it may raise in response to any

-30-

action for equitable relief is that it contests the existence of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement.

Exhibit F: Guarantee

Aegean Marine Petroleum Network Inc. ("Parent") hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees as a primary obligation to Terminal Operator (as such term is defined in the Bunker Storage Agreement) the full, complete and timely payment and performance by Customer (as such term is defined in the Bunker Storage Agreement) of all of Customer's obligations under [applicable Assumed Storage Contract or Storage Agreement] (the "Bunker Storage Agreement") (all such obligations of Customer being the "Customer Obligations"). If Customer fails or refuses to pay or perform any Customer Obligations, Parent shall immediately pay or perform such Customer Obligations. This provision is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection. There are no conditions precedent to the enforcement of this provision. The obligations of Parent hereunder shall be continuing, absolute and unconditional and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by: (a) any invalidity, illegality or unenforceability against Customer of the Bunker Storage Agreement; (b) any modification, amendment, restatement, waiver or rescission of, or any consent to the departure from, any of the terms of the Bunker Storage Agreement; (c) any exercise or non-exercise by Terminal Operator of any right or privilege under the Bunker Storage Agreement or any notice of such exercise or non-exercise; (d) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any Customer Obligation, by operation of law or otherwise, or any assignment of any rights to receive performance of any Customer Obligation by Terminal Operator; (e) any change in the corporate existence structure or ownership of Customer; (f) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting Customer or Customer's assets or any resulting release or discharge of any Customer Obligation; (g) any requirement that Terminal Operator exhaust any right or remedy or take any action against Customer or any other person before seeking to enforce the obligations of Parent under this provision; (h) the existence of any defense, set-off or other rights (other than a defense of payment or performance) that Parent may have at any time against Customer or any other person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transactions; (i) any other act or failure to act or delay of any kind by Customer or any other Person; or (j) any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for this provision, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Customer Obligations or the obligations of Parent hereunder, including all defenses of a surety.

This provision shall continue to be effective, or be automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment or performance, or any part thereof, of any of the Customer Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored, returned or rejected by Terminal Operator for any reason, including upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Customer, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, Customer or any substantial part of Customer's property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made. Parent agrees that it will indemnify Terminal Operator on demand for all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred by Terminal Operator in connection with such rescission or restoration, which amounts shall be in addition to all other obligations hereunder. If Terminal Operator is required to refund part or all of any payment of Customer with respect to any of the Customer Obligations, such payment shall not constitute a release of Parent from any liability hereunder, and Parent's liability hereunder shall be reinstated to the fullest extent allowed under applicable law and shall not be construed to be diminished in any manner.
