Section 2. Agreement to Use Services Relating to Pipelines and Terminals.

This Agreement sets forth a commercial arrangement consistent with historical operational practices between the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities and the predecessor to the Partnership as well as the objectives of the Parties. The Parties intend to be strictly bound by the terms set forth in this Agreement, which set forth the Minimum Revenue Commitment on the part of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities and require the Partnership Entities to provide certain transportation and terminalling services to the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities. The principal objective of the Partnership Entities is for the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities to meet or exceed the Minimum Revenue Commitment. The principal objective of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities is for the Partnership Entities to provide services to the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities in a manner that enables the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities to operate their assets in a manner at least as favorably as the historical course of dealing between the Parties when the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities were the principal user of the Refined Product Pipelines and the Refined Product Terminals.

(a) Minimum Revenue Commitment. During the Term and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities agree as follows:

(i) Subject to Section 3, the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities will transport on the Refined Product Pipelines and terminal in the Refined Product Terminals an amount of Refined Products in the aggregate that will produce revenue to the Partnership Entities in an amount at least equal to $8.85 million per Contract Quarter as such amount may be revised pursuant to Section 2(a)(ii) and Schedule I attached hereto (the “Minimum Revenue Commitment”).

(ii) The Minimum Revenue Commitment shall be adjusted on the first day of each Contract Year by an amount equal to the upper change in the annual change rounded to four decimal places of the Producers Price Index-Commodities-Finished Goods, (PPI), et al. (“PPI”), produced by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureaus of Labor Statistics. The series ID is WPUSOP3000 as of December 31, 2007 — located at ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇/. The change factor shall be calculated as follows: annual PPI index (most current year) less annual PPI index (most current year minus 1) divided by annual PPI index (most current year minus 1). An example for year 2006 change is: [PPI (2005) — PPI (2004)] / PPI (2004) or (155.7 — 148.5) / 148.5 or .0485 or 4.85%. If the PPI index change is negative in a given year then the annual change will be deemed to be “zero.” If the above index is no longer published, the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities and the Partnership Entities shall negotiate in good faith to agree on a new index that gives comparable protection against inflation, and the same method of adjustment for increases in the new index shall be used to calculate increases in the Minimum Revenue Commitment. If the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities and the Partnership Entities are unable to agree, a new index will be determined by binding arbitration in accordance with Section 12(f), and the same method of adjustment for increases in the new index shall be used to calculate increases in the Minimum Revenue Commitment. To evidence the Parties’ agreement to each adjusted Minimum Revenue the Parties shall execute an amended, modified, revised or updated Schedule I and attach it to this Agreement. Such amended, modified, revised or updated Schedule I shall be sequentially numbered (e.g. Schedule I-1, Schedule I-2, etc.), dated and appended as an additional schedule to this Agreement and shall replace the prior version of Schedule I in its entirety, except as specified therein.

(iii) If the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities are unable for a period of time to transport on the Refined Product Pipelines or terminal in the Refined Product Terminals the volumes of Refined Products required to meet the Minimum Revenue Commitment as a result of the Partnership Entities’ operational difficulties, prorationing or difficulties with pipeline connections, then upon written notice by the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities to the Partnership Entities (which notice shall be given reasonably promptly after the occurrence of such difficulties or prorationing), the Minimum Revenue Commitment will be reduced for such period of time by an amount equal to: (1) the volume of Refined Products that the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities were unable to transport on the Refined Product Pipelines or terminal in the Refined Product Terminals as a result of the Partnership Entities’ operational difficulties, prorationing or difficulties with pipeline connections, multiplied by (2) the applicable tariffs and terminal service fees. This Section 2(a)(iii) shall not apply in the event the Partnership Entities give notice of a Force Majeure event in accordance with Section 3(b), in which case the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities’ Minimum Revenue Commitment shall be suspended in accordance with and as provided in Section 3(b).

(b) Tariffs and Terminal Service Fees. The service fees that the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities shall pay to the Partnership Entities for terminalling the Refined Products in the Refined Product Terminals under this Section 2 are set forth on the fee schedule attached hereto as Exhibit C, as such exhibit may be amended from time-to-time in accordance with this Agreement. The rules and regulations applicable to interstate and intrastate service on the Refined Product Pipelines shall be as set forth in the rules and regulations tariffs attached hereto as Exhibit D and Exhibit E, respectively, as such exhibits may be amended from time-to-time in accordance with this Agreement. The tariff rates that the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities shall pay to the Partnership Entities for interstate and intrastate service on the Refined Product Pipelines shall be as set forth in the tariffs attached hereto as Exhibit F and Exhibit G, respectively, as such exhibits may be amended from time-to-time in accordance with this Agreement. The tariff rates shall be adjusted on the first day of each Contract Year by an amount equal to the percentage change, if any, rounded to four decimal places of the PPI calculated in accordance with the method set forth in Section 2(a)(ii); provided, however, that if the PPI index change is negative in a given year, then the tariff rates shall be decreased by an amount equal to such percentage change. If the PPI is no longer published, the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities and the Partnership Entities shall negotiate in good faith to agree on a new index that gives comparable protection against inflation or deflation, and the same method of adjustment for increases or decreases in the new index shall be used to calculate increases or decreases in the tariff rates. If the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities and the Partnership Entities are unable to agree, a new index will be determined by binding arbitration in accordance with Section 12(f), and the same method of adjustment for increases or decreases in the new index shall be used to calculate increases or decreases in the tariff rates. Notwithstanding that the Minimum Revenue Commitment will be determined on a Contract Year basis, the applicable fees, tariff rates and other charges provided for in this Agreement will become effective as of the date of this Agreement, or in the case of the Refined Product Pipeline tariff rates, as soon thereafter as those rates become effective. The Partnership Entities will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the necessary regulatory approvals for the Refined Product Pipeline tariff rates set forth in Exhibit F and Exhibit G to become effective on the date of this Agreement or as soon as possible thereafter, or as soon as possible after any amendment or adjustment, as applicable. To evidence the Parties’ agreement to each adjusted tariff rate, the Parties shall execute an amended, modified, revised or updated Exhibit F and Exhibit G, as applicable, and attach it to this Agreement. Such amended, modified, revised or updated Exhibit F and Exhibit G, as applicable, shall be sequentially numbered (e.g. Exhibit F-1, Exhibit F-2, etc.), dated and appended as an additional exhibit to this Agreement and shall replace the prior version of Exhibit F and Exhibit G, as applicable, in its entirety, except as specified therein.

(c) Obligations of the Partnership Entities. During the Term and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Section 12(c), the Partnership Entities agree to own or lease, operate and maintain the assets necessary to accept the deliveries from the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities and to provide the services required under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, subject to Section 12(c) of this Agreement and Article V of the Omnibus Agreement, the Partnership Entities are free to sell any of their assets, including assets that provide services under this Agreement, and the Partnership or any Partnership Entity is free to merge with another entity (whether or not the Partnership or the Partnership Entity is the surviving entity in such merger) and is free to sell all of its assets or all of its equity to another entity at any time. At the request of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities, and subject in each case to any applicable common carrier proration duties, the Partnership Entities agree to use commercially reasonable

efforts to transport by pipeline for the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities each month during the Term (i) up to 49,500 bpd of gasoline and 26,500 bpd of diesel fuel on the South System after the South System Expansion and (ii) up to 40,000 bpd of Refined Products from Artesia to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or Artesia to Bloomfield on the Partnership Entities’ Artesia to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Artesia to Bloomfield Refined Product Pipeline. The Partnership Entities agree to provide terminalling services for all ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities volumes of Refined Products transported to the Refined Product Terminals. To the extent that the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities are entitled to an exception under Section 3 to its obligations under Section 2(a), the corresponding obligations of the Partnership Entities under this Section 2(c) will be proportionately reduced.

(d) Facility Expansions and Modifications. From time-to-time the Parties may agree to expand or modify certain facilities covered by this Agreement, including refined product pipelines, refined product terminals and other facilities. In connection with the expansion or modification of such facilities, the Parties may agree to certain reimbursements, increased tariff rates or other payments or may otherwise revise the terms of this Agreement to address such projects. Attached to this Agreement as Exhibit H is a list of current expansion or modification projects agreed to by the Parties hereto and the terms of such projects. Exhibit H may be amended, modified, revised or updated from time-to-time in accordance with the terms of this Section 2(d) to evidence the Parties’ agreement to new expansion or modification projects; the completion, termination or revision of previously agreed to expansion or modification projects; or the modification of the terms of this Agreement in connection with the addition, completion, termination or revision of such expansion or modification projects. To evidence the Parties’ agreement to each new expansion or modification project or the completion, termination or revision of previously agreed to expansion or modification project or the modification of the terms of this Agreement in connection with the addition, completion, termination or revision of such expansion or modification projects, the Parties shall execute an amended, modified, revised or updated Exhibit H and attach it to this Agreement. Such amended, modified, revised or updated Exhibit H shall be sequentially numbered (e.g. Exhibit ▇-▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇-▇, etc.), dated and appended as an additional exhibit to this Agreement and shall replace the prior version of Exhibit H in its entirety, except as specified therein.

(e) Ancillary Services. The Partnership Entities will provide ancillary services as have been provided historically, such as truck rack blending, tank sampling and tank-to-tank transfers, to the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities. Except as set forth on Schedule II attached hereto, as it may be amended from time-to-time in accordance with this Agreement, the fees for such ancillary services are included in the fees established under this Agreement for services provided under Section 2(b). All fuel additives, dyes, de-icers and other additives requested to be added to the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities’ Refined Products will be provided by the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities at no cost to the Partnership Entities. If any ancillary services other than those set forth in this Section 2(e) are requested by the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities that are different in kind, scope or frequency from the ancillary services that have been historically provided, then the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to determine the appropriate rates to be charged for such services. The ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities shall be responsible for maintaining the integrity of its operations and the quality of its products so as to not cause additional operating costs related to ancillary services to be incurred by the Partnership Entities.

(f) Pipeline Direction. Without the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities’ prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, the Partnership Entities will not reverse the direction of any Refined Product Pipeline or, except as provided in Section 2(d) or Exhibit H, connect any other pipeline to the Refined Product Pipelines or Refined Product Terminals; provided, however, that the Partnership Entities may take any necessary emergency action to prevent or remedy a release of Refined Products from a Refined Product Pipeline or Refined Product Terminal without obtaining the consent required by this Section 2(f).

Section 3. Exceptions to the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities’ Obligations.

(a) Shut Down or Reconfiguration of Refineries. The ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities must deliver to the Partnership Entities at least twelve months advance written notice of any planned shut down or reconfiguration (excluding planned maintenance turnarounds) of any Refinery or any portion of a Refinery that would reduce such Refinery’s output. The ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities will use their commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any reduction in the Minimum Revenue Commitment that would result from such a shut down or reconfiguration. If the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities shut down or reconfigures any Refinery or any portion of a Refinery (excluding planned maintenance turnarounds) and reasonably believes in good faith that such shut down or reconfiguration will jeopardize its ability to satisfy the Minimum Revenue Commitment, then the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities will utilize the Refined Product Pipelines for 100% of the available production from the Refineries to the extent necessary and available to satisfy the Minimum Revenue Commitment. In the event that such production is insufficient to satisfy the Minimum Revenue Commitment, then within 90 days of the delivery of the written notice of the planned shut down or reconfiguration, the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities shall (i) propose a new Minimum Revenue Commitment, such that the ratio of the new Minimum Revenue Commitment under this Agreement over the anticipated production level following the shut down or reconfiguration will be approximately equal to the ratio of the original Minimum Revenue Commitment under this Agreement over the original production level and (ii) propose the date on which the new Minimum Revenue Commitment shall take effect. Unless objected to by the Partnership Entities within 60 days of receipt by the Partnership Entities of such proposal, such new Minimum Revenue Commitment shall become effective as of the date proposed by the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities. To the extent that the Partnership Entities do not agree with the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities’ proposal, any changes in the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities’ obligations under this Agreement, or the date on which such changes will take effect, will be determined by binding arbitration in accordance with Section 12(f). Schedule I or any other applicable exhibit or schedule to this Agreement will be updated, amended or revised, as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement to reflect any change in the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities’ Minimum Revenue Commitment agreed to in accordance with this Section 3(a).

(b) Force Majeure. In the event that any Party is rendered unable, wholly or in part, by a Force Majeure event from performing its obligations under this Agreement for a period of more than 30 consecutive days, then upon the delivery of notice and full particulars of the Force Majeure event in writing within a reasonable time after the occurrence of the Force Majeure event relied on, the obligations of the Parties, so far as they are affected by the Force Majeure event, shall be suspended for the duration of any inability so caused. Any suspension of the obligations of the Parties as a result of this Section 3(b) shall extend the Term (to the extent so affected) for a period equivalent to the duration of the inability set forth in the notice of the Force Majeure event.

The cause of the Force Majeure event shall so far as possible be remedied with all reasonable dispatch, except that no Party shall be compelled to resolve any strikes, lockouts or other industrial disputes other than as it shall determine to be in its best interests. In the event a Force Majeure event prevents the Partnership Entities or the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities from performing substantially all of their respective obligations

under this Agreement for a period of more than one year, this Agreement may be terminated by the Partnership Entities or the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities. Nothing in this Section 3(b) shall alter the liability of the Partnership Entities as set forth in the rules and regulations tariffs for the Refined Product Pipelines attached hereto as Exhibit D and Exhibit E.

Section 7. Right to Enter into a New Agreement.

(a) In the event that the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities provide prior written notice to the Partnership Entities of the desire of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities to extend this Agreement by written mutual agreement of the Parties, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to extend this Agreement by written mutual agreement, but, if such negotiations fail to produce a written mutual agreement for extension by a date six months prior to the termination date, then the Partnership Entities shall have the right to negotiate to enter into one or more pipeline and terminal agreements with one or more third parties to begin after the date of termination, provided that until the end of one year following termination without renewal of this Agreement, the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities will have the right to enter into a new pipelines and terminals agreement with the Partnership Entities on commercial terms that substantially match the terms which the Partnership Entities propose to enter into an agreement with a third party for similar services with respect to all or a material portion of the Refined Product Pipelines or Refined Product Terminals.

In such circumstances, the Partnership Entities shall give the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities forty-five (45) days prior written notice of any proposed new pipelines agreement with a third party, and such notice shall inform the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities of the fee schedules, tariffs, duration and any other terms of the proposed third party agreement and the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities shall have forty-five (45) days following receipt of such notice to agree to the terms specified in the notice or the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities shall lose the rights specified by this Section 7(b) with respect to the assets that are the subject of such notice.

Section 9. Deficiency Payments.

(a) As soon as practicable following the end of each Contract Quarter under this Agreement, the Partnership Entities shall deliver to the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities a written notice (the “Deficiency Notice”) detailing any failure of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities to meet any of their obligations under Section 2(a); provided that the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities’ obligations pursuant to the Minimum Revenue Commitment shall be assessed on a quarterly basis for the purposes of this Section 9. The Deficiency Notice shall (i) specify in reasonable detail the nature of any deficiency and (ii) specify the approximate dollar amount that the Partnership Entities believe would have been paid by the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities to the Partnership Entities if the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities had complied with their respective obligations pursuant to Section 2(a) (the “Deficiency Payment”). The ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities shall pay the Deficiency Payment to the Partnership Entities upon the later of: (A) ten (10) days after its receipt of the Deficiency Notice and (B) thirty (30) days following the end of the related Contract Quarter.

(b) If the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities disagree with the Deficiency Notice, then, following the payment of the Deficiency Payment to the Partnership Entities, the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities shall send written notice thereof to the Partnership Entities and a senior officer of ▇▇▇▇▇ (on behalf of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities) and a senior officer of the Partnership (on behalf of the Partnership Entities) shall meet or communicate by telephone at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary and shall negotiate in good faith to attempt to resolve any differences that they may have with respect to matters specified in the Deficiency Notice. During the 30 day period following the payment of the Deficiency Payment, the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities shall have access to the working papers of the Partnership Entities relating to the Deficiency Notice. If such differences are not resolved within thirty (30) days following the payment of the Deficiency Payment, the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities and the Partnership Entities shall, within forty-five (45) days following the payment of the Deficiency Payment, submit any and all matters which remain in dispute and which were properly included in the Deficiency Notice to arbitration in accordance with Section 12(f).

(c) If it is finally determined pursuant to this Section 9 that the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities are not required to make any or all of the Deficiency Payment (the “Refund”), the Partnership Entities shall promptly pay to the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities the Refund, together with interest thereon at the Prime Rate, in immediately available funds.

(d) Deficiency Payments will be credited against any payments owed by the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities in the following four Contract Quarters in excess of the Minimum Revenue Commitments established by this Agreement for such Calendar Quarters; provided, however, that the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities will not receive credit for any Deficiency Payment in any of the following four Contract Quarters until they have met the Minimum Revenue Commitment in the succeeding Contract Quarter.

Section 10. Right of First Refusal.

The Parties acknowledge the right of first refusal of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities with respect to the Refined Product Pipelines and Refined Product Terminals provided in the Omnibus Agreement.

Section 11. Limitation of Damages.

(a) NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING CONTAINED TO THE CONTRARY IN ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT AND EXCEPT FOR CLAIMS MADE BY THIRD PARTIES WHICH SHALL NOT BE LIMITED BY THIS PARAGRAPH, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE RECOVERY BY ANY PARTY OF ANY LIABILITIES, DAMAGES, COSTS OR OTHER EXPENSES SUFFERED OR INCURRED BY IT AS A RESULT OF ANY BREACH OR NONFULFILLMENT BY A PARTY OF ANY OF ITS REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, COVENANTS, AGREEMENTS OR OTHER OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, SHALL BE LIMITED TO ACTUAL DAMAGES AND SHALL NOT INCLUDE OR APPLY TO, NOR SHALL ANY PARTY BE ENTITLED TO RECOVER, ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY DAMAGES ON ACCOUNT OF LOST PROFITS OR OPPORTUNITIES OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR DIMINUTION IN VALUE) SUFFERED OR INCURRED BY ANY PARTY; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT SUCH RESTRICTION AND LIMITATION SHALL NOT APPLY (x) AS A RESULT OF A THIRD PARTY CLAIM FOR SUCH INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR (y) TO INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY DAMAGES ON ACCOUNT OF LOST PROFITS OR OPPORTUNITIES OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR DIMINUTION IN VALUE) THAT ARE A RESULT OF THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF THE BREACHING OR NONFULFILLING PARTY OR ITS AFFILIATES.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and solely for the purpose of determining which of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities or the Partnership Entities, as applicable, shall be liable in a particular circumstance, each Party shall be liable to each other Party for any loss, damage, injury, judgment, claim, cost, expense or other liability suffered or incurred by a Party (the “Damaged Party”) to the extent that the Party causes such loss, damage, injury, judgment, claim, cost, expense or other liability suffered or incurred by the Damaged Party or owns or operates the assets covered by or subject to this Agreement or other property in question responsible for causing such loss, damage, injury, judgment, claim, cost, expense or other liability suffered or incurred by the Damaged Party.

Section 12. Miscellaneous.

(a) Intention as to Refineries. The ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities represent to the Partnership Entities that, as of February 1, 2009, they are not considering a shut down of any of the Refineries or any changes to any of the Refineries that would have a material adverse effect on the operation of any of the Refineries.

(b) Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by the Parties. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by the Party against whom the waiver is sought to be enforced. Any of the exhibits or schedules to this Agreement may be amended, modified, revised or updated by the Parties if each of the Parties executes an amended, modified, revised or updated exhibit or schedule, as applicable, and attaches it to this Agreement. Such

amended, modified, revised or updated exhibits or schedules shall be sequentially numbered (e.g. Exhibit ▇-▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇-▇, etc.), dated and appended as an additional exhibit or schedule to this Agreement and shall replace the prior exhibit or schedule, as applicable, in its entirety, except as specified therein. No failure or delay in exercising any right hereunder, and no course of conduct, shall operate as a waiver of any provision of this Agreement. No single or partial exercise of a right hereunder shall preclude further or complete exercise of that right or any other right hereunder.

(c) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities, the Partnership Entities and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder shall be assigned without the prior written consent of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities (in the case of any assignment by the Partnership Entities) or the Partnership Entities (in the case of any assignment by the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities), in each case, such consent is not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that (i) the Partnership Entities may make such an assignment (including a partial pro rata assignment) to an Affiliate of the Partnership Entities without the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities’ consent, (ii) the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities may make such an assignment (including a partial pro rata assignment) to an Affiliate of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities without the Partnership Entities’ consent, (iii) any ▇▇▇▇▇ Entity may make such an assignment to any Person to which such ▇▇▇▇▇ Entity has sold any of its assets which assets rely on the services provided by the Partnership Entities under this Agreement if such Person (1) is reasonably capable of performing the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entity’s obligations (or its pro rata portion of such obligations) under this Agreement assigned to such Person, which determination shall be made by the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entity in its reasonable judgment and (2) has agreed in writing to assume the obligations of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entity assigned to such Person, without the Partnership Entities’ consent and (iv) the Partnership Entities may make such an assignment to any Person to which the Partnership Entities have sold any of its transportation, storage or terminalling assets which assets provide services to the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities under this Agreement if such Person (1) is reasonably capable of performing the Partnership Entities’ obligations (or its pro rata portion of such obligations) under this Agreement assigned to such Person, which determination shall be made by the Partnership Entities in their reasonable judgment and (2) has agreed in writing to assume the obligations of the Partnership Entities assigned to such Person, without the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities’ consent. Any attempt to make an assignment otherwise than as permitted by the foregoing shall be null and void. The Parties agree to require their respective successors, if any, to expressly assume, in a form of agreement reasonably acceptable to the other Parties, their obligations under this Agreement.

(d) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable by a court or regulatory body of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

(e) Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflicts-of-law rule or principle that might refer the construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the laws of another state.

(f) Arbitration Provision. Any and all Arbitrable Disputes must be resolved through the use of binding arbitration using three arbitrators, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, as supplemented to the extent

necessary to determine any procedural appeal questions by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code). If there is any inconsistency between this Section 12(f) and the Commercial Arbitration Rules or the Federal Arbitration Act, the terms of this Section 12(f) will control the rights and obligations of the Parties. Arbitration must be initiated within the time limits set forth in this Agreement, or if no such limits apply, then within a reasonable time or the time period allowed by the applicable statute of limitations. Arbitration may be initiated by a Party (“Claimant”) serving written notice on the other Party (“Respondent”) that the Claimant elects to refer the Arbitrable Dispute to binding arbitration. Claimant’s notice initiating binding arbitration must identify the arbitrator Claimant has appointed. The Respondent shall respond to Claimant within thirty (30) days after receipt of Claimant’s notice, identifying the arbitrator Respondent has appointed. If the Respondent fails for any reason to name an arbitrator within the 30-day period, Claimant shall petition the American Arbitration Association for appointment of an arbitrator for Respondent’s account. The two arbitrators so chosen shall select a third arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the second arbitrator has been appointed. The Claimant will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by it, and the Respondent will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by or for it. The costs of petitioning for the appointment of an arbitrator, if any, shall be paid by Respondent. The Claimant and Respondent will each pay one-half of the compensation and expenses of the third arbitrator. All arbitrators must (i) be neutral parties who have never been officers, directors or employees of any of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities, the Partnership Entities or any of their Affiliates and (ii) have not less than seven (7) years experience in the energy industry. The hearing will be conducted in Dallas, Texas and commence within thirty (30) days after the selection of the third arbitrator. The ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities, the Partnership Entities and the arbitrators shall proceed diligently and in good faith in order that the award may be made as promptly as possible. Except as provided in the Federal Arbitration Act, the decision of the arbitrators will be binding on and non-appealable by the Parties hereto. The arbitrators shall have no right to grant or award indirect, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages of any kind. The Arbitrable Disputes may be arbitrated in a common proceeding along with disputes under other agreements between the ▇▇▇▇▇ Entities, the Partnership Entities or their Affiliates to the extent that the issues raised in such disputes are related. Without the written consent of the Parties, no unrelated disputes or third party disputes may be joined to an arbitration pursuant to this Agreement.

(g) Rights of Limited Partners. The provisions of this Agreement are enforceable solely by the Parties, and no Limited Partner of the Partnership shall have the right, separate and apart from the Partnership, to enforce any provision of this Agreement or to compel any Party to comply with the terms of this Agreement.

(h) Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and all transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each signatory Party hereto agrees to execute and deliver such additional documents and instruments and to perform such additional acts as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate, carry out and perform all of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement and all such transactions.

(i) Headings. Headings of the Sections of this Agreement are for convenience of the Parties only and shall be given no substantive or interpretative effect whatsoever. All references in this Agreement to Sections are to Sections of this Agreement unless otherwise stated.

(j) No Novation. This Agreement shall be considered an amendment and restatement of the Original Pipelines and Terminals Agreement, and the Original Pipelines and Terminals Agreement is hereby ratified, approved and confirmed in every respect. This Agreement is not intended to constitute a novation of the Original Pipelines and Terminals Agreement and all of the obligations owing by the Parties under the Original Pipelines and Terminals Agreement shall continue (and from and after the date of this Agreement, as amended hereby).

10	Specifications and Acceptance of Product	Refined Petroleum Products will be accepted for transportation at such time as Refined Petroleum Products of same quality and specifications are currently being transported from receiving point to destination. Prior to acceptance of Refined Petroleum Products for transportation the Company may require from the Shipper a certificate setting forth, in detail, the specifications of each shipment of Refined Petroleum Products. Carrier may also make such tests as it deems necessary.

		All additives and inhibitors to be included in Shipper’s Refined Petroleum Products must first be approved by the Carrier before such Refined Petroleum Products will be accepted for transportation. If Refined Petroleum Products tendered by Shipper do not contain corrosion inhibitor compound which is satisfactory to Carrier, then Carrier may, at Shipper’s expense, inject corrosion inhibitor compound in the Refined Petroleum Products to be transported, and Shipper and Consignee will accept delivery of shipments at destination containing portions of the corrosion inhibitor compound.

		Refined Petroleum Products will be accepted for transportation when Shipper has made necessary arrangements (a) to provide facilities to tender such Refined Petroleum Products and deliver same at Carrier’s receiving manifold at the origin at pumping rates and pressures as required by Carrier, and (b) to provide facilities at the destination to receive the Refined Petroleum Products tendered for transportation at flow rates and pressures as required by Carrier.

		Carrier may require Shipper to supply adequate buffer material when necessary for quality control purposes to maintain segregation of Shipments of Refined Petroleum Products.

		Shippers will be required to schedule their Refined Petroleum Products for delivery into Carrier’s receiving tanks or suction manifold at the origin to meet the cycle within which Carrier schedules the Refined Petroleum Products to move. Refined Petroleum Products shall be available for shipment 24 hours before the scheduled date for movement into the Carrier’s pipeline system. Shipper shall deliver Refined Petroleum Products to Carrier at a pressure no greater than 275 psig and at a flowing pressure of at least 150 psig.

20	Mixing with Other Refined Petroleum Products	Carrier will endeavor to deliver substantially the same Refined Petroleum Products as received from Shipper to the extent permitted by Carrier’s facilities. However, all shipments will be accepted for transportation only on condition that it shall be subject to such changes in gravity or quality while in transit as may result from the mixture with other Refined Petroleum Products in the pipelines.

		Carrier will allocate Transmix to all Shippers in proportion to each Shipper’s volume of all Refined Petroleum Products. Carrier will make Transmix available for delivery to Shippers so that over time each Shipper receives its proportionate share. Each Shipper must accept delivery of Transmix from Carrier no later than 5 days after notification that Transmix is available for distribution to Shipper. Shipper will have sole responsibility for the disposition of its allocated Transmix.

25	Refined Petroleum Products to be Free from Liens and Charges	Company shall have the right to decline to receive any Refined Petroleum Products which may be involved in litigation or the title of which may be in dispute or which may be encumbered by lien or charge of any kind, and it may require of the Shipper satisfactory evidence of his perfect and unencumbered title or satisfactory indemnity bond to protect Company.

30	Commodity	This Company is engaged in the transportation of Refined Petroleum Products exclusively and therefore will not accept any other commodity for transportation.

35	Payment of Transportation and Other Charges	The Shipper or Consignee shall pay the transportation charges accruing on Refined Petroleum Products [W] delivered at the final destination, and if required, shall pay the same before delivery. Shipment for transportation shall be subject to a lien for all such charges.
		Unless Carrier requires payment of transportation charges before delivery as allowed in this item, transportation charges shall be due ten days after receipt of invoice from Carrier for delivery of Refined Petroleum Products. If such charges remain unpaid after payment is due, such charges shall bear interest from the date they became due until they are paid at a rate equal to 125 % of the prime rate of interest as reported in the Wall Street Journal as of the first of the month in which the charges are due or the maximum finance rate allowed by applicable law, whichever is less

RULES AND REGULATIONS


Item No.	Subject	Application
35	Payment of Transportation and Other Charges [continued]	If Shipper or Consignee fails to pay the transportation charges within 10 days after payment is due, Carrier shall have the right to sell Shipper’s or Consignee’s Refined Petroleum Products at public auction for cash. The auction will be held between the hours often o/clock a.m. and four o’clock p.m. on any day not a weekend or legal holiday, and not less than twenty-four hours after Shipper has been officially notified of the time and place of such sale and the quantity, general description, and location of the Refined Petroleum Products to be sold. Carrier may be a bidder and purchaser at such sale. Out of the proceeds of said sale, Carrier shall pay itself for all transportation, demurrage, and other lawful charges, expenses of notice, advertisement, sale and other necessary expenses, and expenses of caring for and maintaining the Refined Petroleum Products, and the balance shall be held for whosoever may be lawfully entitled thereto after the auction. If the proceeds of said sale do not cover all expenses incurred by Carrier, Shipper and Consignee, if any, are liable to Carrier for any deficiency.

40	Liability of Carrier	Carrier shall not be liable for loss of Refined Petroleum Products in its custody, damage thereto, or delay caused by fire, storm, flood, epidemics, Acts of God, riots, insurrection, rebellion, war, act of the public enemy, quarantine, nuclear or atomic explosion, strikes, picketing, or other labor stoppages, whether of Carrier’s employees or other, the authority of law, requisition or necessity of Government of the United States in time of war, default of Shipper or Shipper’s Consignee or any other cause not due to the sole negligence of Carrier, whether similar or dissimilar to the cause herein enumerated. In the event of such loss, each Shipper shall bear the loss in the same proportion as its share of the total quantity involved and shall be entitled to receive only so much of its share remaining after its due proportion of the loss is deducted. Transportation charges will be assessed only on the quantity delivered net of volume corrections as set forth in Item No. 45 herein.

45	Gauging, Testing, and Volume Corrections	Shipments tendered to Carrier for transportation shall be tested by a representative of Carrier, and gauged or measured by automatic equipment approved by Carrier or by other methods acceptable in the industry, at locations designated by Carrier. The Shipper shall have the privilege of being present or represented at the gauging and testing. Quantities will be computed from correctly compiled tank tables or by Carrier approved meters. Corrections will be made for temperature from observed degrees Fahrenheit to sixty degrees (60°) Fahrenheit.

		Shipper shall bear the actual product losses for shrinkage and evaporation incident to pipeline transportation up to a maximum of twenty-five hundredths (0.25) of a percent. Carrier shall offset such product losses with any product gains and shall determine the net product losses on a calendar quarterly basis.

50	Duty of Carrier	Carrier shall not be required to transport products except with reasonable diligence, considering the quantity to be transported, the distance of transportation, safety of operation, and other material factors.

RULES AND REGULATIONS


Item No.	Subject	Application
55	Line Fill	Either prior to or after the acceptance of Shipments for transportation through Carrier’s pipeline system, Carrier may, upon reasonable notice, require each Shipper to provide a prorata part of the volume of Refined Petroleum Products necessary for pipeline fill. Refined Petroleum Products provided by a Shipper for this purpose may be withdrawn from the system only with the prior approval of Carrier or after reasonable notice of such Shipper’s intention.

		Carrier may require advance payment of transportation charges on the volumes to be cleared from Carrier’s pipeline system and of any unpaid accounts receivable before final delivery of line fill will be made. Carrier shall have a reasonable period of time following receipt of Shipper’s notice to complete administrative and operational requirements incidental to Shipper’s withdrawal.

60	Pipeage Contracts	Separate pipeage contracts in accord with this tariff and these regulations, covering further details may be required of the proposed Shipper before any duty of transportation shall arise.

65	Claims, Suits, Time for Filing	As a condition precedent to recovery, claims must be filed in writing with Carrier within nine (9) months after delivery of the property, or in case of failure to make delivery, then within nine (9) months after a reasonable time for delivery has elapsed; and suits shall be instituted against Carrier only within two (2) years and one (1) day from the day when notice in writing is given by Carrier to the claimant that Carrier has disallowed the claim or any part or parts thereof specified in the notice. Where claims are not filed or suits are not instituted thereon in accordance with the foregoing provisions, Carrier shall not be liable, and such claims will not be paid.

70	Proration of Pipeline Capacity	When the total volume offered for shipment is greater than can be transported within the period covered by such offers, Refined Petroleum Products offered by each Shipper for transportation will be transported in such quantities and at such times to the limit of Carrier’s capacity so as to avoid discrimination among Shippers. The details of Carrier’s method of proration are contained in a document entitled ▇▇▇▇▇ Energy Partners — Operating, L.P. Proration Policy, effective September 24, 2004, which will be made available, upon request, to any Shipper or prospective Shipper.

RULES AND REGULATIONS


Item No.	Subject	Application
35	Payment of Transportation and Other Charges [continued]	If Shipper or Consignee fails to pay the transportation charges within 10 days after payment is due, Carrier shall have the right to sell Shipper’s or Consignee’s Refined Petroleum Products at public auction for cash. The auction will be held between the hours of ten o/clock a.m. and four o’clock p.m. on any day not a weekend or legal holiday, and not less than twenty-four hours after Shipper has been officially notified of the time and place of such sale and the quantity, general description, and location of the Refined Petroleum Products to be sold. Carrier may be a bidder and purchaser at such sale. Out of the proceeds of said sale, Carrier shall pay itself for all transportation, demurrage, and other lawful charges, expenses of notice, advertisement, sale and other necessary expenses, and expenses of caring for and maintaining the Refined Petroleum Products, and the balance shall be held for whosoever may be lawfully entitled thereto after the auction. If the proceeds of said sale do not cover all expenses incurred by Carrier, Shipper and Consignee, if any, are liable to Carrier for any deficiency.

40	Liability of Carrier	Carrier shall not be liable for loss of Refined Petroleum Products in its custody, damage thereto, or delay caused by fire, storm, flood, epidemics, Acts of God, riots, insurrection, rebellion, war, act of the public enemy, quarantine, nuclear or atomic explosion, strikes, picketing, or other labor stoppages, whether of Carrier’s employees or other, the authority of law, requisition or necessity of Government of the United States in time of war, default of Shipper or Shipper’s Consignee or any other cause not due to the sole negligence of Carrier, whether similar or dissimilar to the cause herein enumerated. In the event of such loss, each Shipper shall bear the loss in the same proportion as its share of the total quantity involved and shall be entitled to receive only so much of its share remaining after its due proportion of the loss is deducted. Transportation charges will be assessed only on the quantity delivered net of volume corrections as set forth in item No. 45 herein.

45	Gauging, Testing, and Volume Corrections	Shipments tendered to Carrier for transportation shall be tested by a representative of Carrier, and gauged or measured by automatic equipment approved by Carrier or by other methods acceptable in the industry, at locations designated by Carrier. The Shipper shall have the privilege of being present or represented at the gauging and testing. Quantities will be computed from correctly compiled tank tables or by Carrier approved meters. Corrections will be made for temperature from observed degrees Fahrenheit to sixty degrees (60°) Fahrenheit. Shipper shall bear the actual product losses for shrinkage and evaporation incident to pipeline transportation up to a maximum of twenty-five hundredths (0.25) of a percent. Carrier shall offset such product losses with any product gains and shall determine the net product losses on a calendar quarterly basis.

50	Duty of Carrier	Carrier shall not be required to transport products except with reasonable diligence, considering the quantity to be transported, the distance of transportation, safety of operation, and other material factors.

For explanation of abbreviations, see concluding page of this tariff.

RULES AND REGULATIONS


Item No.	Subject	Application
55	Line Fill	Either prior to or after the acceptance of Shipments for transportation through Carrier’s pipeline system, Carrier may, upon reasonable notice, require each Shipper to provide a prorata part of the volume of Refined Petroleum Products necessary for pipeline fill. Refined Petroleum Products provided by a Shipper for this purpose may be withdrawn from the system only with the prior approval of Carrier or after reasonable notice of such Shipper’s intention. Carrier may require advance payment of transportation charges on the volumes to be cleared from Carrier’s pipeline system and of any unpaid accounts receivable before final delivery of line fill will be made. Carrier shall have a reasonable period of time following receipt of Shipper’s notice to complete administrative and operational requirements incidental to Shipper’s withdrawal.

60	Pipeage Contracts	Separate pipeage contracts in accord with this tariff and these regulations, covering further details may be required of the proposed Shipper before any duty of transportation shall arise.

65	Claims, Suits, Time for Filing	As a condition precedent to recovery, claims must be filed in writing with Carrier within nine (9) months after delivery of the property, or in case of failure to make delivery, then within nine (9) months after a reasonable time for delivery has elapsed; and suits shall be instituted against Carrier only within two (2) years and one (1) day from the day when notice in writing is given by Carrier to the claimant that Carrier has disallowed the claim or any part or parts thereof specified in the notice. Where claims are not filed or suits are not instituted thereon in accordance with the foregoing provisions, Carrier shall not be liable, and such claims will not be paid.

70	Proration of Pipeline Capacity	When the total volume offered for shipment is greater than can be transported within the period covered by such offers, Refined Petroleum Products offered by each Shipper for transportation will be transported in such quantities and at such times to the limit of Carrier’s capacity so as to avoid discrimination among Shippers. The details of Carrier’s method of proration are contained in a document entitled ▇▇▇▇▇ Energy Partners — Operating, L.P. Proration Policy, effective September 24, 2004, which will be made available, upon request, to any Shipper or prospective Shipper.
