3.1

Estimated Initial Inventory (Estimated Step-in Inventory). On Thursday, June 27, 2013, PRC shall prepare its good faith estimate of the Initial Inventory to be sold by PRC to ▇▇▇▇ hereunder as of the Commencement Date (the “Estimated Initial Inventory”) based on the volumes held in the Included Locations as of 11:59:59 p.m. EPT on Wednesday, June 26, 2013, and shall deliver a written statement thereof to ▇▇▇▇ by 5:00:00 p.m. EPT on Thursday, June 27, 2013.

3.2

Initial Purchase (Initial Step-in Purchase). On the Commencement Date, and subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.6.1, ▇▇▇▇ agrees to purchase the Initial Inventory from PRC, subject to Section 3.5, based on the sum of, for each Product Group, the product of (a) the Estimated Step-in Product Benchmark applicable to each Product Group and (b) the Estimated Initial Inventory (based on

ny-1739899

the statement delivered by PRC) (the “Estimated Initial Inventory Purchase Value”).

3.3

Payment for Estimated Initial Inventory (Initial Step-in Payment). Promptly after the opening of financial markets in New York, New York on the Commencement Date, and subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.6.1, ▇▇▇▇ shall pay 100% of the Estimated Initial Inventory Purchase Value to PRC by wire transfer of immediately available funds; provided, however, that PRC may, at its election, direct that all or a portion of the Estimated Initial Inventory Purchase Value be paid to MSCG on PRC’s behalf in accordance with the Payment Direction Letter, and the Parties agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate the respective timing of payments made pursuant to the Payment Direction Letter; provided, further, for the avoidance of doubt, title to the Initial Inventory shall pass from PRC to ▇▇▇▇, consistent with PRC’s warranty of title set forth in Section 11.1.1 and at and as of the time specified in the definition of the Commencement Date, subject to PRC’s confirmation of receipt of funds in an amount equal to such Estimated Initial Inventory Purchase Value.

3.4

Determination of Actual Initial Inventory (Actual Step-in Inventory). The Parties shall determine the actual volumes of the Initial Inventory sold by PRC to ▇▇▇▇ hereunder as of the Commencement Date (the “Actual Initial Inventory”) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Schedule D.

If (a) the amount of the Actual Initial Inventory Purchase Value exceeds the amount of the Estimated Initial Inventory Purchase Value, then ▇▇▇▇ shall pay to PRC the amount of the resulting excess and (b) the amount of the Actual Initial Inventory Purchase Value is less than the amount of the Estimated Initial Inventory Purchase Value, then PRC shall pay to ▇▇▇▇ the absolute value of the resulting difference, in each case pursuant to Section 3.6.

3.6

Payment of Initial Purchase True-Up (Payment of Step-in True-Up). No later than 5:00:00 p.m. EPT on the Initial Purchase True-Up Date, ▇▇▇▇ or PRC, as applicable, shall pay the amount calculated as due and payable thereunder to the other Party by wire transfer of immediately available funds. If such amount is owed to PRC then PRC may, at its election, direct that all or a portion of such amount be paid by ▇▇▇▇ to MSCG on PRC’s behalf in accordance with the Payment Direction Letter. If such amount is owed to ▇▇▇▇ then PRC may, at its election, direct that all or a portion of

ny-1739899

such amount be paid by MSCG to ▇▇▇▇ on PRC’s behalf and ▇▇▇▇ agrees to accept such payment in accordance with the Payment Direction Letter. In the case of each of the foregoing payment obligations under this Section 3.6, the Parties agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate the respective timing of payments made pursuant to the Payment Direction Letter. For purposes hereof, the “Initial Purchase True-Up Date” means the earlier of (i) the third Business Day following the delivery of Aron’s written statement to PRC under Section 3.5 and (ii) such other date as the Parties may mutually agree.

3.8	Purchase Upon Termination or Expiration (Step-out).

3.8.1

Upon the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason other than as a result of a Termination Event (the effective date of such termination or expiration being the “Step-out Date”), the Parties covenant and agree to proceed as provided in this Section 3.8; provided that (x) the terms of this Agreement applicable to any continuing obligations shall continue in effect following the Step-out Date until all obligations are finally settled as contemplated by this Section 3.8 and (y) the provisions of this Section 3.8 shall in no way limit the rights and remedies which the Performing Party may have as a result of a Termination Event, whether pursuant to Section 18 or otherwise.


3.8.2	PRC agrees to purchase from ▇▇▇▇ all ▇▇▇▇ Inventory located in situ in the Included Locations and owned by ▇▇▇▇ on the Step-out Date (the “Step-out Inventory”), as follows:

(i)PRC shall prepare its good faith estimate of the Step-out Inventory (for each Product Group) to be sold by ▇▇▇▇ to PRC hereunder as of the Step-out Date (the “Estimated Step-out Inventory”) based on the volumes held in the Included Locations as of 12:00:01 a.m. EPT on the fourth Business Day preceding the Step-out Date and shall deliver a written statement thereof to ▇▇▇▇ by 5:00:00 p.m. EPT on the third Business Day preceding the Step-out Date. ▇▇▇▇ shall determine, and

ny-1739899

promptly advise PRC, in any event within one Business Day after delivery of PRC’s statement, of the “Estimated Step-out Inventory Purchase Value,” which shall equal the sum of, for each Product Group, the product of (a) the Estimated Step-out Product Benchmark applicable to each Product Group and (b) the Estimated Step-out Inventory (based on the statement delivered by PRC).

(ii)Subject to Section 3.8.5 below, PRC shall be obligated to pay to ▇▇▇▇ the Estimated Step-out Inventory Purchase Value on the Step-out Date as part of the Estimated Step-out Payment Amount due on that day. The Parties shall execute and deliver the Step-out ▇▇▇▇ of Sale on the Step-out Date to evidence the in-tank transfer of the Step-out Inventory.

(iii)No later than 20 days after the Step-out Date, ▇▇▇▇ shall determine, in accordance with Schedule D, and deliver a written statement to PRC of, the “Actual Step-out Inventory Purchase Value,” which shall equal the sum of, for each Product Group, the product of (x) the Actual Step-out Product Benchmark and (y) the Actual Step-out Inventory.

3.8.3

The “Actual Step-out Inventory” of each Product Group shall be determined as of 11:59:59 p.m. EPT on the Step-out Date in accordance with Schedule D (with the necessary changes having been made therein to reflect a determination of such volumes using the procedures therein as of the Step-out Date, instead of as the Commencement Date). The Final Inventory Quantity Report shall be delivered to the Parties pursuant to the procedures set forth in Schedule D (as so modified).


3.8.4	The “Step-out Payment Amount” shall equal the sum of the following items (without duplication), as determined by ▇▇▇▇ in a commercially reasonable manner:

(i)the Actual Step-out Inventory Purchase Value; plus

(ii)if such termination is pursuant to Section 2.3 or 2.4, any amount due under Section 3.8.7 or 3.8.8, as applicable, as a result; plus

(iii)the aggregate amount due under Section 12.5, calculated as of the Step-out Date with such date being the final day of the last monthly period for which such calculations are to be made under this Agreement (including any FIFO Balance Final Settlement provided for in Schedule L, as defined therein); provided that, if such amount under Section 12.5 is due to ▇▇▇▇, then such amount will be included in this Step-out Payment Amount as a positive number and if such amount under Section 12.5 is due to PRC, then such amount will be included in this Step-out Payment Amount as a negative number; plus

ny-1739899

(iv)any Ancillary Costs incurred through the Step-out Date that have not yet been paid or reimbursed by PRC pursuant to Section 6.6; plus

(v)if one or more Specified Periods designated by PRC or otherwise established pursuant to the provisions of Schedule F prior to the Step-out Date ends after the Step-out Date, the net present values as of the Step-out Date of the Inventory Intermediation Roll Fees that would have become due as of the end of such Specified Periods (discounted from the “True Up Date” that would have applied to such Specified Period to the “True Up Date” applicable to a Specified Period ending on the Step-out Date, and the discount rate to be used in the net present value calculation shall be equal to LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin), which shall be aggregated so that a net amount due to one party or the other is determined, which net amount if due to ▇▇▇▇ shall be included in this clause as a positive number and if due to PRC shall be included in this clause as a negative number (notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of applying this clause (v), to the extent practicable and if mutually agreed to by the Parties, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to permit PRC to assume any positions established pursuant to Schedule F upon commercially reasonable terms); plus

(vi)[reserved]

(vii)all unpaid amounts payable hereunder by PRC to ▇▇▇▇ in respect of Products bought or sold on or prior to the Step-out Date and not taken into account under this Section 3.8.4; minus

(viii)all unpaid amounts payable hereunder by ▇▇▇▇ to PRC in respect of Products bought or sold on or prior to the Step-out Date and not taken into account under this Section 3.8.4.

All of the foregoing amounts shall be aggregated or netted to a single liquidated amount owing from one Party to the other. If the Step-out Payment Amount is a positive number, it shall be due to ▇▇▇▇ and if it is a negative number, the absolute value thereof shall be due to PRC.

No later than 30 days after the Step-out Date, ▇▇▇▇ shall give PRC notice of the Step-out Payment Amount, together with a statement providing a reasonably detailed summary of the calculations made by ▇▇▇▇ in determining the Step-out Payment Amount, along with related supporting documentation.


3.8.5	The Parties acknowledge that ▇▇▇▇ may not be able to definitively determine one or more of the components of the Step-out Payment Amount by the Step-out Date (provided, however, that ▇▇▇▇ shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to determine all such components by the Step-out Date to the maximum extent practicable) and therefore agree in

ny-1739899

such event that ▇▇▇▇ shall, in a commercially reasonable manner, estimate each of such components and use such estimated components to determine an estimate of the Step-out Payment Amount (the “Estimated Step-out Payment Amount”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties agree that the estimated amount with respect to clause (i) of Section 3.8.4 shall be the Estimated Step-out Inventory Purchase Value. ▇▇▇▇ shall prepare, and provide PRC with, a statement of the Estimated Step-out Payment Amount, together with appropriate supporting documentation, at least two Business Days prior to the Step-out Date. ▇▇▇▇ shall update its calculation of the Estimated Step-out Payment Amount by no later than 5:00 p.m. EPT on the Business Day immediately preceding the Step-out Date. If ▇▇▇▇ is able to provide such updated amount by such time, that amount shall constitute the Estimated Step-out Payment Amount and shall be due and payable by no later than 5:00 p.m. EPT on the Step-out Date. Otherwise, the initial Estimated Step-out Payment Amount shall be the amount payable by such time on the Step-out Date.

3.8.6

No later than 30 days after the Step-out Date, ▇▇▇▇ shall prepare, and provide PRC with, (i) a statement showing the calculation, as of the Step-out Date, of the Step-out Payment Amount and (ii) a statement (the “Step-out Reconciliation Statement”) reconciling the Step-out Payment Amount with the Estimated Step-out Payment Amount and indicating any amount remaining to be paid by one Party to the other as a result of such reconciliation. Within three Business Days after receiving the Step-out Reconciliation Statement and the related supporting documentation, the Parties will make any and all payments required pursuant thereto so that the Step-out Payment Amount shall have been paid in full by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

3.8.7

PRC agrees to pay ▇▇▇▇, only if this Agreement is terminated in its entirety pursuant to Section 2.3 on or prior to December 31, 2020 at 11:59:59 p.m. EPT (to the extent applicable under Section 2.3), an amount equal to the product of: (a) the amount calculated as the sum of, for each Product Group, the product of (i) the Actual Step-out Inventory Product Benchmark and (ii) the Maximum Inventory and (b) the Specified Early Termination Margin (the “Specified Early Termination Fee”).

3.8.8

PRC agrees to pay ▇▇▇▇, only if this Agreement is terminated in its entirety pursuant to Section 2.4 on or prior to December 31, 2021 at 11:59:59 p.m. EPT, but after December 31, 2020 at 11:59:59 p.m. EPT (to the extent applicable under Section 2.4), an amount equal to the product of: (a) the amount calculated as the sum of, for each Product Group, the product of (i) the Actual Step-out Inventory Product Benchmark and (ii) the Maximum Inventory, (b) the Early Termination Margin and (c) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days

ny-1739899

between the date of such early termination and December 31, 2021 and the denominator of which is 365 (the “Early Termination Fee”).

3.8.9

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (including Section 1.2), it is agreed that the final month of the Term hereof (including if occurring upon an early termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.3 or 2.4) shall be a “long” month consisting of a calendar month and the first day of the immediately following calendar month (and that if the operation of such provisions would result in a termination of this Agreement on a day that is not a Business Day then notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the effective date of any such termination shall occur on the next Business Day).

3.9

Disputes. If a Party in good faith disputes the accuracy of any amount calculated pursuant to this Section 3, the non-calculating Party shall provide written notice stating the reasons why the remaining disputed amount is incorrect, along with reasonable supporting documentation. In the event the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute, the matter shall be resolved in accordance with Section 22.

No later than the third Business Day after the delivery of the Final Inventory Quantity Report to the Parties pursuant to the procedures set forth in Schedule D, PRC shall deliver to ▇▇▇▇ a statement listing the adjusted Prices to be used hereunder, subject to the commercially reasonable agreement of ▇▇▇▇; provided that such Prices shall thereafter from time to time be subject to further adjustment pursuant to Sections 4.3.2, 4.3.3, 4.3.4 and 4.3.5 below.


4.3.2	Commencing at least 10 Business Days prior to the second-to-last Business Day of each Scheduled Price Adjustment Month, unless the Parties otherwise agree, the Parties shall endeavor, in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, to agree to adjusted Prices according

ny-1739899

to the procedures described in Schedule N. If any such adjusted Prices are agreed to prior to the second-to-last Business Day of such Scheduled Price Adjustment Month, the Parties will promptly confirm such agreement in writing, and such adjusted Price shall become applicable for purposes of determining the Product Benchmarks starting with the immediately following month. If the Parties are unable to agree prior to the second-to-last Business Day of such Scheduled Price Adjustment Month whether an adjustment to any of the Prices is appropriate or upon the amount of such adjustment, then ▇▇▇▇ shall (in consultation with PRC) promptly and in a commercially reasonable manner determine, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section II(d) of Schedule N hereto, the amount, if any, by which one or more the Prices are to be adjusted with respect to such Scheduled Price Adjustment Month. Promptly after making such determination, ▇▇▇▇ shall advise PRC whether any adjusted Prices are appropriate and the amount thereof and, if so, such adjusted Prices shall become applicable for purposes of determining the Product Benchmarks starting with the immediately following month.

4.3.4

In connection with any Reference Contract Change during a RC Price Adjustment Month, the Parties shall endeavor, in good faith and a commercially reasonable manner, to negotiate and agree to adjusted Prices to be implemented in connection with such Reference Contract Change. If such adjusted Prices are agreed by the Parties within 10 Business Days after the execution of such Reference Contract Change, the Parties will promptly confirm such agreement in writing, and such adjusted Price shall become applicable for purposes of determining the Product Benchmarks starting with the immediately following month. If the Parties are unable to agree, within such 10 Business Day period, whether an adjustment to any of the Prices is appropriate or upon the amount of such adjustment, then ▇▇▇▇ shall (in consultation with PRC) promptly and in a commercially reasonable manner determine, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section II(d) of Schedule N hereto, the amount, if any, by which one or more of the Prices are to be adjusted with respect to such RC Price Adjustment Month. Promptly after making such determination, ▇▇▇▇ shall advise PRC whether any adjusted Prices are appropriate and the amount thereof and, if so, such adjusted Prices shall become applicable for purposes of determining the Product Benchmarks starting with the immediately following month.


4.3.5	The Parties acknowledge that each such adjustment to the Prices shall apply only prospectively starting in the month following the relevant Price Adjustment Month and that successive adjustments may be made,

ny-1739899

in each case with the most recent adjustment superseding any prior adjustment on a going forward basis.


4.3.6	Each time adjusted Prices become effective under Section 4.3.2 above, ▇▇▇▇ shall determine the Price Adjustment Amount as provided on Schedules N and O and such amount shall be included in the Aggregate Monthly Product True-Up Amount that is incorporated into the Monthly True-Up Payment in the immediately following month.

4.4

Hedging Activities. Any ▇▇▇▇▇▇, swaps, options, positions or any other instruments or strategies executed by either Party related in any way to the Products, shall be for the relevant Party’s own account (including with regard to the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, which shall be for Aron’s own account), and any Taxes and/or Liabilities incurred, directly or indirectly resulting from such activities, shall be borne exclusively by such relevant Party (provided that the foregoing shall not affect the treatment of Specified Unwind Costs pursuant to the express terms and conditions of Section 3.8 or 18).


4.5	Reference Contract Changes.


4.5.1	PRC may, by written notice to ▇▇▇▇ (each, an “RC Change Notice”), request that the futures contract constituting the Reference Contract for a specified Product Group (the “Existing Reference Contract”) be changed to another futures contract (a “Reference Contract Change”), provided that:

(i)the RC Change Notice shall specify the Product Group or Product Groups for which a Reference Contract Change is requested and, for each such specified Product Group, indicate the futures contract that PRC requests become the New Reference Contract for such Product Group (as defined in Schedule O), which must be one of the Eligible Futures Contracts listed on Schedule O; and

(ii)a Reference Contract Change shall be made for a Product Group during a month only if the RC Change Notice requesting such Reference Contract Change has been received by ▇▇▇▇ prior to 2 p.m., EPT, on the 5^th Trading Day preceding the Roll Cutoff Date of the Existing Reference Contract for such month.


4.5.2	If, during any month, ▇▇▇▇ has received an RC Change Notice in compliance with the conditions in Section 4.5.1 above, then for each Product Group covered by such RC Change Notice ▇▇▇▇ shall, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Schedule O hereto, effect the Reference Contract Change.


4.5.3	If, for any Product Group, a Reference Contract Change is completed pursuant to Section 4.5.2, then commencing upon completion of such

ny-1739899

Reference Contract Change, the New Reference Contract shall be the Reference Contract for such Product Group.

4.6

The Parties agree that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) any written notice or written agreement contemplated by Section 4.3 or 4.5 above may be given by email (in the case of a notice) or confirmed by exchange of emails (in the case of an agreement) and (ii) to the extent such notice or agreement would amend or modify any item contained in a Schedule hereto, the giving of such notice or confirming of such agreement as provided in clause (i) above shall constitute an amendment of, and be deemed to amend all applicable references in, such Schedule to reflect the item addressed in such notice or agreement, without any further action by the parties to the IIA.


5.	ADDITIONAL INCLUDED LOCATIONS

5.1

From time to time after the Commencement Date, PRC may notify ▇▇▇▇ that PRC wishes to add a third-party storage location as an Included Location for purposes of this Agreement. Following such notification, ▇▇▇▇ shall promptly undertake a due diligence review of the proposed Included Location to reasonably determine whether ▇▇▇▇ is prepared to hold Product inventory at such proposed Included Location. ▇▇▇▇ shall be under no further obligation with respect to such proposed Included Location if ▇▇▇▇ reasonably determines that, based on such due diligence review, it is not prepared to hold Product inventory at such proposed Included Location. ▇▇▇▇ shall notify PRC promptly after completing such due diligence review, but in any event shall reach a final decision and advise PRC concerning the same within seven days of PRC providing such notice to ▇▇▇▇.

5.2

If ▇▇▇▇ advises PRC that ▇▇▇▇ is prepared to hold Product inventory at such proposed Included Location, then PRC may endeavor to negotiate and implement Required Storage Arrangements pursuant to which PRC may transfer and assign to ▇▇▇▇ PRC’s (and/or its Affiliates’) right to use the proposed Included Location; provided that (a) upon and concurrently with implementing any Required Storage Arrangement, the Parties shall execute such amendments to this Agreement and/or the Exhibits and/or Schedules hereto as are necessary or appropriate to add such proposed Included Location as an Included Location hereunder, (b) to the extent requested by ▇▇▇▇, the Parties shall amend any other applicable Transaction Document to include any inventory transferred to ▇▇▇▇ as a result of such assignment, designation or arrangement and (c) no change shall occur in the Minimum Inventory or the Maximum Inventory in connection with the implementation of such Required Storage Arrangements unless agreed to by ▇▇▇▇. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.2, PRC shall nevertheless be free in its sole discretion to enter into storage agreements with third parties, provided such storage agreements are not at a location that is an Included Location.

ny-1739899


5.3	The Parties will cooperate in good faith with regard to the negotiation, preparation and execution of any Required Storage Arrangements upon commercially reasonable terms, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to both Parties.

5.4

If any Required Storage Arrangements are entered into in connection with additional Included Locations and, thereafter, PRC shall materially fail to (i) perform its obligations under, (ii) comply with or (iii) maintain such Required Storage Arrangements in effect; provided, in each case that if PRC fails to cure or commence a cure any such failure within three Business Days after receiving written notice thereof from ▇▇▇▇, then ▇▇▇▇ may, in its reasonable discretion, require that such location be removed from the Included Locations and that PRC at the time such location is removed purchase all ▇▇▇▇ Inventory then located at such location on terms comparable to those that apply to a termination of this Agreement under Section 3.8.


6.	PRODUCT SALES & REPORTING

6.1

Products Sales to ▇▇▇▇ by PRC. ▇▇▇▇ agrees to purchase from PRC, and PRC agrees to sell to ▇▇▇▇, the Products produced by the Refinery or delivered to the Refinery, and delivered by PRC into the Included Locations at the values determined pursuant to this Agreement and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement (in each case, other than with regard to any Excess Quantities or Excluded Third-Party Inventory); provided that (i) ▇▇▇▇ shall not be obligated at any time to purchase Products from PRC if such purchase would result in ▇▇▇▇ owning Products in any Product Group in the Included Locations in excess of the Maximum Inventory for such Product Group specified on Schedule E (as such Maximum Inventory is adjusted pursuant to Section 6.4) and (ii) Aron’s purchase obligation under this Section 6.1 shall be limited to the extent that it is unable to take delivery of Products as a result of PRC’s failure to comply with the proviso in Section 6.2.

6.2

Products Sales to PRC by ▇▇▇▇. PRC agrees to purchase from ▇▇▇▇, and ▇▇▇▇ agrees to sell to PRC, the Products delivered out of the Included Locations at the values determined pursuant to this Agreement and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; provided that PRC agrees that its purchases and receipt of Products from ▇▇▇▇ shall be in sufficient quantities so that ▇▇▇▇ shall, at all times during the Term, have available storage capacity in the Included Locations to take delivery of any Products to be sold by PRC to ▇▇▇▇ pursuant to Section 6.1.

6.3

Daily Report of Inventory Volumes. On or prior to 5:00 p.m. EPT on each Business Day, PRC shall deliver to ▇▇▇▇ a report, in the form provided on Exhibit 3, setting forth a good faith estimate of the volumes of each Product (the “Inventory Volumes”) held in the Included Locations as of 11:59:59 p.m. EPT on the immediately prior Business Day and any prior, non-reported days (including holidays and weekends), including the total ▇▇▇▇ Inventory levels as to each grade of Product, in each case based on the best available information, by applying the Volume Determination Procedures, together with comparable information with respect to

ny-1739899

any then-existing Commingled Quantities and/or Excluded Third Party Inventories, any Tanks which pursuant to Section 6.4.5 are not then Included Locations and any Tanks which pursuant to Section 9 have been substituted for other Tanks (the “Daily Report of Inventory Volumes”).


6.4	Excess Inventory Levels.

6.4.1

If PRC intends to designate an Excess Inventory Level for any whole or partial month for any Product Group, then PRC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify ▇▇▇▇ of PRC’s intention prior to the Target Cutoff Date for such whole or partial month. If PRC fails to provide such notice in a timely manner, it shall not be entitled for that whole or partial month to designate an Excess Inventory Level for the relevant Product Group and Sections 6.4.4 and 6.4.5 shall apply.


6.4.2	If, pursuant to Section 6.4.1, PRC provides timely notice of its intention to designate an Excess Inventory Level for a Product Group, then ▇▇▇▇ shall promptly advise PRC whether ▇▇▇▇ accepts such Excess Inventory Level (in which case Section 6.4.3 shall apply) or rejects such Excess Inventory Level (in which case Section 6.4.4 and 6.4.5 shall apply).

6.4.3

If ▇▇▇▇ accepts an Excess Inventory Level for any whole or partial month, then, for all purposes of this Agreement, such Excess Inventory Level shall constitute the Maximum Inventory for the relevant Product Group for such whole or partial month; provided that such Excess Inventory Level shall not apply to any other whole or partial month unless expressly accepted by ▇▇▇▇ for such other whole or partial month as contemplated by Section 6.4.2.


6.4.4	If ▇▇▇▇ rejects an Excess Inventory Level for any whole or partial month or PRC fails to provide notice to ▇▇▇▇ of its intention to designate an Excess Inventory Level in a timely manner for any whole or partial month, then the following provisions shall apply:

(i)The Maximum Inventory for such whole or partial month shall remain at the level set forth on Schedule E and the Target Product Inventory for the relevant Product Group for such whole or partial month shall be equal to no more than the Maximum Inventory.

(ii)Prior to the commencement of such whole or partial month, PRC shall, to the extent practicable and commercially reasonable, identify those Tanks that it will, during such whole or partial month, use to hold and isolate any Excess Quantities. In doing so, to the extent practicable and commercially reasonable, PRC will endeavor to use smaller capacity Tanks before larger capacity Tanks to facilitate the segregation of such Excess Quantities from the ▇▇▇▇ Inventory. Prior to the commencement

of such whole or partial month, PRC shall provide ▇▇▇▇ with notice of the Tanks it intends to use for such purposes.

(iii)To the extent that PRC is able to store Excess Quantities in one or more Tanks so that none of the ▇▇▇▇ Inventory is commingled in such Tanks, then PRC shall be entitled during the relevant whole or partial month, but only so long as such Excess Quantities are not commingled with ▇▇▇▇ Inventory, to include such Excess Quantities in the borrowing base under its Revolving Credit Agreement and to permit the lenders thereunder to have a Lien on such Excess Quantities; provided that PRC shall have implemented reasonable arrangements with such lenders to specifically identify such Tanks to them for the foregoing purposes (which arrangements shall be disclosed to ▇▇▇▇).

(iv)To the extent that PRC is unable to store all Excess Quantities on a segregated basis as contemplated by clause (iii) above, the portion of such Excess Quantities not so segregated (the “Commingled Quantities”) may, during the relevant whole or partial month, be held on a commingled basis in Tanks that hold ▇▇▇▇ Inventory subject to the following additional terms and conditions:


(a)	PRC shall identify to ▇▇▇▇ which Tanks holding ▇▇▇▇ Inventory will also hold Commingled Quantities; and

(i)Prior to exceeding the Maximum Inventory for such whole or partial month, PRC may, to the extent practicable and commercially reasonable, identify those Tanks that it reasonably expects would, during such whole or partial month, hold any Excess Quantities of the relevant Product Group; and

(ii)To avoid exceeding such Maximum Inventory, PRC may designate one or more of such affected Tanks and purchase from ▇▇▇▇ pursuant to Section 6.2 all ▇▇▇▇ Inventory located in one or more such affected Tanks so that the ▇▇▇▇ Inventory would not exceed the Maximum Inventory for the relevant Product Group for such whole or partial month, after giving effect to such purchase, at a value equal to the product of (a)

ny-1739899

the volume of the ▇▇▇▇ Inventory located in such Tank and (b) the Product Benchmark for the applicable Product Group, and, after such purchase, such affected Tanks shall no longer constitute Included Locations for purposes hereof unless and until PRC determines, in its reasonable discretion, that PRC can sell the Products located in such affected Tanks to ▇▇▇▇ pursuant to Section 6.2 at the applicable values established pursuant to Section 12.1 and as further adjusted pursuant to Section 12.5 without exceeding the applicable Maximum Inventory and PRC notifies ▇▇▇▇ of the same, upon which notice and sale the Tanks shall thereafter again constitute Included Locations for all purposes hereof.

18.2.9	At any time the terms and conditions of Section 17.3.3 shall not have been satisfied.

18.3

Remedies Generally. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any Specified Transaction, upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default with respect to a Party (such Party referred to as the “Defaulting Party”), or upon the occurrence and continuance of an Additional Termination Event with respect to the Affected Party, the other Party in each case (the “Performing Party”) may, in its sole discretion, in addition to all other remedies available to it and without incurring any Liabilities, do any or all of the following:

18.3.1

suspend its performance under this Agreement and the Commodity Forward Agreement, including any Product sale, purchase, receipt, delivery or payment obligations, upon written notice to the Defaulting Party or Affected Party (except that in the case of any Event of Default under Section 18.1.4, all such performance under this Agreement and the Commodity Forward Agreement shall automatically and without any such notice be suspended);

18.3.2

declare all or any portion of the Defaulting Party’s or Affected Party’s, as applicable, obligations under this Agreement (including without limitation any Specified Early Termination Fee or Early Termination Fee) and the Commodity Forward Agreement to be forthwith due and payable, all without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by the Defaulting Party or Affected Party, as applicable (except that in the case of any Event of Default under Section 18.1.4, all such obligations shall automatically and without any such declaration become forthwith due and payable);


18.3.3	upon written notice to the Defaulting Party or the Affected Party, specify a date (the “Early Termination Date”) on which to terminate this Agreement (except that in the case of any Event of Default under Section 18.1.4, this Agreement and the Commodity Forward Agreement shall automatically and without any such notice be terminated);

ny-1739899


18.3.4	terminate all other Transaction Documents and all other agreements that may then be outstanding between the Parties that relate specifically to this Agreement;


18.3.5	close out any Specified Transactions pursuant to Section 18.4;


18.3.6	determine the Settlement Amount pursuant to Section 18.5;


18.3.7	determine the Termination Amount as provided in Section 18.6; and


18.3.8	exercise any rights and remedies provided or available to the Performing Party under this Agreement or at law or equity, including such remedies as provided for under the UCC.

18.4

Export of Defaults to and Liquidation of Specified Transactions. If the Performing Party gives written notice to the Non-Performing Party pursuant to Section 18.3.3 declaring an Early Termination Date (or, if applicable, such Early Termination Date automatically occurs), the occurrence thereof shall constitute a material breach and an event of default, howsoever described, under all Specified Transactions by the Non-Performing Party, and the Performing Party may, by giving notice to the Non-Performing Party, designate an early termination date (which shall be no earlier than the Early Termination Date) for all Specified Transactions and, upon such designation, terminate, liquidate, accelerate and otherwise close out all Specified Transactions that lawfully may be closed out and terminated or, to the extent that in the reasonable opinion of the Performing Party certain of such Specified Transactions may not be liquidated and terminated under Applicable Law on such Early Termination Date, as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable in which case the actual termination date for such Specified Transactions will be the Early Termination Date, subject to the final sentence of this Section 18.4. In such event, the Performing Party shall calculate the payments due upon early termination of such Specified Transactions in accordance with the terms set forth in such Specified Transactions and in a commercially reasonable manner and without duplication of any amounts payable pursuant to Section 18.5, which shall be aggregated or netted to a single liquidated amount (the “Specified Transaction Close-Out Amount”) and paid pursuant to the terms of such agreements, or, if no payment date is specified, on the payment date specified in Section 18.7. In determining the Specified Transaction Close-Out Amount the Performing Party may foreclose upon and apply any collateral provided by or on behalf of the Non-Performing Party under this Agreement or any Specified Transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of closing out, liquidating and terminating such Specified Transactions, to the extent practicable and if mutually agreed to by the Parties, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to permit the Non-Performing Party to assume the Performing Party’s obligations under such Specified Transactions upon commercially reasonable terms.

18.5	Determination of Settlement Amount in the Event of Early Termination.

18.5.1

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the Performing Party terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 18.3.3 (or, if applicable, such termination automatically occurs), the Performing Party shall have the right, immediately and for 60 days thereafter, to terminate any other contract or agreement that may then be outstanding among the Parties that relates specifically to this Agreement, including any Transaction Document and, subject to Section18.5.2, to liquidate and terminate any or all rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that, in the event ▇▇▇▇ is the Performing Party, this Agreement shall not be deemed to have terminated in full until ▇▇▇▇ shall have disposed of all of the ▇▇▇▇ Inventory (but in any event within 60 days thereafter); and provided further that such 60 day period shall be extended to the extent that the Performing Party is subject to or required to comply with the order of any court of competent jurisdiction that limits its ability to exercise such rights or remedies or if the exercise of such rights or remedies is impracticable due to circumstances beyond the Performing Party’s reasonable control (which, with the exercise of due diligence, such Party cannot avoid or overcome). The “Settlement Amount” shall mean (A) the amount, expressed in U.S. Dollars, of all actual, reasonable losses and costs that are incurred by the Performing Party (expressed as a positive number) or gains that are realized by the Performing Party (expressed as a negative number) as a result of the liquidation and termination of all rights and obligations under this Agreement other than the rights and obligations arising under the Commodity Forward Agreement, plus (B) at the election of the Performing Party, the Commodity Forward Settlement Amount. In determining the Settlement Amount, the Performing Party shall be entitled to take into account (without duplication): (w) for any Specified Period designated by PRC or otherwise established pursuant to the provisions of Schedule F prior to the Early Termination Date that ends after such Early Termination Date, the net present values as of the Early Termination Date of the Inventory Intermediation Roll Fees that would have become due as of the end of such Specified Period absent the early termination (where the discount rate to be used in the net present value calculation shall be equal to LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin), (x) all Specified Unwind Costs (as determined with respect to all Corresponding Futures and aggregated into a net amount), (y) the actual, reasonable losses and costs (or gains) incurred or realized by the Performing Party to the extent it elects to dispose of any Product inventories maintained for purposes of this Agreement and (z) if such termination occurs prior to December 31, 2021 and ▇▇▇▇ is the Performing Party, the amount of the Specified Early Termination Fee or Early Termination Fee that would have been payable to ▇▇▇▇ pursuant to Section 3.8.7 or 3.8.8, respectively (if any), as a result of an early termination under Section 2.3 or 2.4 of this Agreement, except

ny-1739899

that if such termination occurs prior to June 30, 2020 the Specified Early Termination Fee shall be calculated in the same manner as under Section 3.8.7 except that the Default Early Termination Margin shall be used in place of the Specified Early Termination Margin.; provided further that if the Performing Party elects that the Commodity Forward Settlement Amount shall not be included in the determination of the Settlement Amount, the Commodity Forward Settlement Amount and the Settlement Amount shall each become due at the same time pursuant to Section 18.3. . If the Settlement Amount is a positive number it shall be due to the Performing Party and if it is a negative number, the absolute value thereof shall be due to the Non-Performing Party and the Commodity Forward Settlement Amount, if not included in the Settlement Amount, if a positive number shall be due to the Performing Party and if a negative number, the absolute value thereof shall be due to the Non-Performing Party.

18.5.2

The Settlement Amount and the Commodity Forward Settlement Amount shall be determined by the Performing Party, acting in good faith, in a commercially reasonable manner, based on the applicable liquidated and terminated rights and obligations and shall be payable by one Party to the other. The Performing Party shall determine the Settlement Amount and the Commodity Forward Settlement Amount commencing as of the date on which such termination occurs by reference to such futures, forward, swap and options markets as it shall select in its commercially reasonable judgment; provided that the Performing Party is not required to effect such terminations and/or determine the Settlement Amount and/or the Commodity Forward Settlement Amount on a single day, but rather may effect such terminations and determine the Settlement Amount and/or the Commodity Forward Settlement Amount over a commercially reasonable period of time (but in any event within 60 days thereafter, subject to extension of such 60 day period on the same basis as the 60 day period referred to in Section 18.5.1 may be extended thereunder). In calculating the Settlement Amount and the Commodity Forward Settlement Amount, the Performing Party shall discount to present value (in a commercially reasonable manner based on LIBOR) any amount which would be due at a later date and shall add interest (at a rate determined in the same manner) to any amount due prior to the date of the calculation.

18.5.3

For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “Commodity Forward Settlement Amount” shall mean the amount, expressed in U.S. Dollars, of losses and costs that are or would be incurred by the Performing Party (expressed as a positive number) or gains that are or would be realized by the Performing Party (expressed as a negative number) as a result of the liquidation and termination of all rights and obligations (assuming the satisfaction of the condition precedent in Section 18.5.4 below) under

ny-1739899

the Commodity Forward Transactions, including (without duplication) all Specified Unwind Costs (as determined with respect to all Corresponding Futures and aggregated into a net amount), and (ii) “Commodity Forward Transaction” means any transaction entered into between ▇▇▇▇ and PRC under this Agreement that is a forward agreement within the meaning of §101(53)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code.

18.5.4

▇▇▇▇ and PRC agree that (i) each Commodity Forward Transaction, the rights and obligations thereunder, and the provisions set-out in this Agreement relating to the termination of those Commodity Forward Transactions upon an Event of Default or Additional Termination Event and the determination and payment of the resulting Commodity Forward Settlement Amount shall be deemed to form a separate single agreement between ▇▇▇▇ and PRC (the “Commodity Forward Agreement”), and without such agreement each such party would not otherwise enter into any Commodity Forward Transaction; and (ii) each obligation of each party under a Commodity Forward Transaction is subject to the condition precedent that no Event of Default pursuant to Section 18.1.4 has occurred and is continuing.


18.6	Determination of the Termination Amount in the Event of Early Termination. The amount payable in respect of early termination due to an Event of Default shall comprise (without duplication) all of the following amounts, which shall be aggregated or netted to a single liquidated amount (the “Termination Amount”) owing from one Party to the other Party:


18.6.1	the Settlement Amount;


18.6.2	the Specified Transaction Close-Out Amount as determined pursuant to Section 18.4;


18.6.3	the amount of any performance assurance, credit support or collateral provided by or on behalf of PRC under any Specified Transaction held by ▇▇▇▇ at the Early Termination Date, which shall be applied as a credit to PRC;


18.6.4	without duplication, all actual out-of-pocket losses, damages and expenses reasonably and necessarily incurred by the Performing Party as a result of the termination and liquidation of this Agreement, in each case including reasonable (i) attorneys’ fees, (ii) court costs, (iii) collection costs, (iv) interest charges and (v) other reasonable disbursements; and


18.6.5	all Unpaid Amounts, including any purchase value for Product that has not yet been paid;

ny-1739899

provided that, if the Performing Party has elected that the Commodity Forward Settlement Amount not be included in the Settlement Amount, then the Performing Party may also elect whether to include the Commodity Forward Settlement Amount in the Termination Amount and if the Performing Party elects not to include the Commodity Forward Settlement Amount in the Termination Amount, then payment of the Commodity Forward Settement Amount shall be due concurrently with payment of the Termination Amount under Section 18.7 and shall if the Performing Party owes the Commodity Forward Settlement Amount, then it shall pay such amount once it has reasonably determined all amounts owed by the Non-Performing Party to it under all Specified Transactions and its rights of close-out and setoff under Section 18.9.

18.7

Payment of Termination Amount. The Performing Party shall notify the Non-Performing Party of the Termination Amount due from or due to such Party. If the Non-Performing Party owes the Termination Amount to the Performing Party, the Non-Performing Party shall pay the Termination Amount on the second Business Day after it receives the statement. If the Performing Party owes the Termination Amount to the Non-Performing Party, the Performing Party shall pay the Termination Amount once it has reasonably determined all amounts owed by the Non-Performing Party to it under all Specified Transactions and its rights of close-out and setoff under Section 18.9.

18.8

Certain Rights of ▇▇▇▇ as Performing Party. Without limiting any other rights or remedies hereunder, if ▇▇▇▇ is the Performing Party, ▇▇▇▇ may, in its commercially reasonable discretion, (i) withdraw from storage any and all of the Products then in the Included Locations, (ii) otherwise arrange for the disposition of any Products then in the Included Locations and (iii) liquidate in a commercially reasonable manner any credit support, margin or collateral, to the extent not already in the form of cash (including applying any other margin or collateral) and apply and set off such credit support, margin or collateral or the proceeds thereof against any obligation owing by PRC to ▇▇▇▇. ▇▇▇▇ shall be under no obligation to prioritize the order with respect to which it exercises any one or more rights and remedies available hereunder. PRC shall in all events remain liable to ▇▇▇▇ for any amount payable by PRC in respect of any of its obligations remaining unpaid after any such liquidation, application and set off.

18.9

Setoff Rights of Performing Party. If the Performing Party elects to designate an Early Termination Date under Section 18.3.3, the Performing Party shall be entitled, at its option and in its discretion (and without prior notice to the Non-Performing Party), to setoff against the Termination Amount (whether such Termination Amount is payable to the Performing Party or to the Non-Performing Party) any other amounts payable under any agreements between the Non- Performing Party and the Performing Party (whether or not matured or contingent and irrespective of the currency, place of payment or place of booking of the obligation). To the extent that the Termination Amount is so set off, the Termination Amount and other amounts will be discharged promptly and in all respects. The Performing Party will give at

ny-1739899

least one Business Day’s prior written notice to the other Party of any set-off effected under this Section 18.9.

18.10

Non-Exclusive Remedies. The Performing Party’s rights under this Section 18 are in addition to, and not in limitation or exclusion of, any other rights of setoff, recoupment, combination of accounts, Lien or other right which it may have, whether by agreement, operation of law or otherwise. No delay or failure on the part of a Performing Party to exercise any right or remedy shall constitute an abandonment of such right or remedy and the Performing Party shall be entitled to exercise such right or remedy at any time after a Termination Event has occurred and is continuing.

18.11

Indemnification. The Non-Performing Party shall reimburse the Performing Party for its reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, actually incurred in connection with the enforcement of, suing for or collecting any amounts payable by the Non-Performing Party. The Non-Performing Party shall indemnify and hold harmless the Performing Party for any reasonable damages, losses and expenses actually incurred by the Performing Party as a result of any Termination Event.

EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 22 OR TO THE VENUE THEREIN OR ANY CLAIM OF INCONVENIENT FORUM OF SUCH COURT. EACH PARTY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDINGS RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

22.4

Arbitration. Any dispute governed by Section 22.2.1.1 or 22.2.1.2 shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration using a single arbitrator, as to Section 22.2.1.1, or three arbitrators, as to Section 22.2.1.2, applying by reference the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) as in effect on the date such dispute arises, 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 the provisions of this Agreement and the AAA Rules or the Federal Arbitration Act, the provisions of this Agreement shall control.


22.4.1	Arbitration must be initiated within the time period allowed by the applicable statute of limitations.


22.4.2	As to Section 22.2.1.1, if the Parties are unable to jointly select an arbitrator within 30 days following the initiation of the dispute, the AAA will name the arbitrator within 30 days after expiration of such period. The Parties each shall pay one-half of the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator(s).

22.4.3

As to Section 22.2.1.2, the initiating Party’s notice shall identify the arbitrator such Party is appointing. The responding Party shall respond within 30 days after receipt of such notice, identifying the arbitrator such Party is appointing. If such Party does not name an arbitrator within the 30 days, the AAA will name the arbitrator for such Party within 30 days after expiration of such period. The two arbitrators so appointed or named shall select a third arbitrator within 30 days after the second arbitrator has been appointed or named. If the two appointed or named arbitrators cannot reach agreement upon the third arbitrator within the 30 day period, the AAA shall promptly name an independent arbitrator to act as the third arbitrator. The Parties each shall pay one-half of the compensation and expenses of the arbitrators.

ny-1739899


22.4.4	All arbitrators must (i) be neutral persons who have never been officers, directors, employees or consultants or had other business or personal relationships (except acting as arbitrator) with the Parties or any of their Affiliates, officers, directors or employees and (ii) have experience in or be knowledgeable about the matters in dispute.


22.4.5	The location of all arbitration proceedings shall be the City of Wilmington, Delaware.

22.4.6

The Parties and the arbitrators shall proceed diligently so that the award can be made as promptly as possible. If the amount in controversy is less than $1,000,000 the hearing shall commence as promptly as practicable after the selection of the arbitrator. If the amount in controversy is equal to or exceeds $1,000,000, the hearing shall commence at such time as agreed to by the Parties and the arbitrators but no later than three months after the selection of the third arbitrator. Expedited discovery will be permitted if and as agreed to by the Parties. If the Parties are unable to agree, the arbitrators shall resolve any discovery disputes consistent with the AAA Rules. Any matter involving an amount in controversy that is equal to or in excess of $1,000,000 shall be treated as a large, complex commercial case as per the AAA Rules.


22.4.7	Except as provided in the Federal Arbitration Act, the decision of the arbitrators shall be binding on and non-appealable by the Parties. In rendering any decision or award, the arbitrators must abide by all terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the exclusion of consequential, incidental, exemplary, special, indirect and punitive damages set forth in Section 20.


22.4.8	The Parties shall each bear their own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in arbitrating any dispute pursuant to this Section 22.4.

22.5

Availability of Remedies. The Parties acknowledge and agree that damages may not be an adequate remedy for a breach of the provisions of this Agreement. For this reason, among others, the Parties could be irreparably harmed if this Agreement is not deemed to be specifically enforceable or any other legal or equitable remedy or relief is deemed not to be available, and the Parties hereby agree that, without prejudice to Section 18, this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable and that all other legal and equitable remedies and relief shall be available.


23.	ASSIGNMENT


23.1	This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

ny-1739899

23.2

PRC shall not assign this Agreement or its rights or interests hereunder in whole or in part, or delegate its obligations hereunder in whole or in part, without the express written consent of ▇▇▇▇, except as set forth in Section 23.4 and 23.5. ▇▇▇▇ shall not assign this Agreement or its rights or interests hereunder, directly or indirectly, through consolidation, amalgamation, merger or transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, in whole or in part, or delegate its obligations hereunder in whole or in part, without the express written consent of PRC, except that ▇▇▇▇ may, without PRC’s express written consent, assign and delegate all of Aron’s rights and obligations hereunder to any Affiliate of ▇▇▇▇; provided that the obligations of such Affiliate hereunder are guaranteed by The ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Sachs Group, Inc.


23.3	If written consent is given for any assignment, the assignor shall remain jointly and severally liable with the assignee for the full performance of the assignor’s obligations under this Agreement unless the Parties otherwise agree in writing.


23.4	Either Party may create a security interest in (but may not otherwise assign any interest in) its receivables under this Agreement as to a third party without the consent of the other Party; provided that no such security interest shall impair or limit any rights or remedies of the other Party hereunder, including any rights of setoff, recoupment or counterclaim.

23.5

PRC may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any and all lenders, security, note or bond holders, lien holders, investors, equity providers and other persons providing any interim or long term equity or debt financing, refinancing or recapitalization for the Refinery, their successors and assigns and any trustees or agents acting on their behalf. Additionally, if PRC wishes to assign (i) its rights and obligations under this Agreement, (ii) any Specified Transactions or (iii) any assets, including the Refinery and/or the Tanks, related to this Agreement to a master limited partnership that is an Affiliate of PRC, ▇▇▇▇ agrees that it will cooperate with PRC in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner to accommodate such assignment on terms that preserve for ▇▇▇▇, in all material respects, the economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents.


23.6	Any prohibited assignment in violation of this Section 23 shall be null and void ab initio and the non-assigning Party shall have the right, without prejudice to any other rights or remedies it may have hereunder or otherwise, to terminate this Agreement effective immediately upon notice to the Party attempting such assignment.


24.	NOTICES

24.1

Notices in Writing. Any notice, demand or document that a Party is required or may desire to give hereunder, except to the extent specifically provided otherwise herein, must be (i) in writing and (ii) given by personal delivery, overnight courier, facsimile or U.S. mail registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, with the postage prepaid and properly addressed or communicated to such Party at its address or

ny-1739899

facsimile number set forth on Schedule K, or at such other address as either Party may have furnished to the other by notice given in accordance with this Section 24.1. Other than notices relating to a Termination Event, termination of this Agreement, indemnification, assignment and disputes, notice may also be given by electronic mail at such e-mail address as is typically used for such type of matter in the conduct of the recipient’s business. Any notice delivered or made by personal delivery, overnight courier, facsimile or U.S. mail shall be deemed to be given on the date of actual delivery as shown by the receipt for personal delivery or overnight courier delivery, the addresser’s machine confirmation for facsimile deliver or the registry or certification receipt for registered or certified mail.


25.	NATURE OF THE TRANSACTION & RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES

25.1

Neither this Agreement nor any other Transaction Document or transaction under any of them, nor the performance by the Parties of their respective obligations under this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any transaction shall constitute or create a joint venture, partnership or legal entity of any kind between the Parties. It is understood that each Party has complete charge of its employees and agents in the performance of its duties hereunder and nothing herein shall be construed to make a Party, or any employee or agent of such Party, an agent or employee of another Party. No Party shall have any authority (unless expressly conferred in writing under this Agreement or otherwise and not revoked) to bind another Party as its agent or otherwise.


26.	CONFIDENTIALITY

26.1

This Agreement and all documents related to the foregoing and any information pertaining thereto made available by a Party or its Representatives to the other Party or its Representatives are confidential (collectively, “Confidential Information”), which obligation supersedes in all respects the Mutual Confidentiality Agreement dated as of April 18, 2013 by and between ▇▇▇▇ and PBFH (the “Confidentiality Agreement”). Each Party shall at a minimum use the same efforts and standard of care with respect to Confidential Information provided by the other Party that it uses to preserve its own confidential information, and in no event less than commercially reasonable efforts. Confidential Information shall not be discussed with or disclosed to any third party by any Party except for such information (i) as may become generally available to the public through no breach of this Section 26.1 or any other agreement between the Parties, (ii) as may be required or appropriate in response to any summons, subpoena or otherwise in connection with any litigation or to comply with any Applicable Law or accounting disclosure rule or standard or request by any supervisory or regulatory authority, (iii) as may be obtained from a non-confidential source that disclosed such information in a manner that did not violate its obligations to the other Party or its credit support provider in making such disclosure or (iv) as may be furnished to the disclosing Party’s Affiliates or to its Representatives, all of whom are required to keep the information that is disclosed in confidence. This

ny-1739899

Section 26.1 shall remain in effect for two years following the termination of this Agreement.

26.2

In the case of disclosure covered by clause (ii) of Section 26.1, the disclosing Party shall notify the other Party in writing of any proceeding of which it is aware which may result in disclosure (provided that the disclosing Party shall not be required to waive any attorney-client or work product privilege) and shall use reasonable efforts to prevent or limit such disclosure. The Parties may exercise all remedies available at law or in equity to enforce or seek relief in connection with the confidentiality obligations contained in this Agreement.


27.	CHANGE IN LAW

27.1

Each Party shall make reasonable efforts to monitor any proposed Change in Law that may reasonably be expected to have an impact on Aron’s ability to perform any of its obligations under any of the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in a commercially reasonable manner and shall promptly notify the other Party upon becoming aware of any such proposed Change in Law. Such notice shall identify the proposed Change in Law and set out in reasonable detail the effects the notifying Party anticipates such Change in Law would have upon such performance of any such ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ if enacted. The Parties shall in good faith meet to discuss what, if any, measures can be taken by either Party (or both) to minimize and/or mitigate the effect of any such proposed Change in Law. If a Change in Law results or would result in a Party (the “Adversely Affected Party”): (a) violating any Applicable Law in connection with its performance of any of the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, (b) incurring Taxes, Liabilities or other sanctions of a monetary nature in excess of $1,000,000 per annum solely as a result of such Party’s performance of the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, in each case the Adversely Affected Party shall be entitled to request that the Parties meet for purposes of addressing such Change in Law by providing written notice (a “Change in Law Notice”) to the other Party (the “Non-Affected Party”). Within seven Business Days of receipt of a Change in Law Notice, the Parties shall meet in good faith with a view to identifying any steps (“Consequential Steps”) that would alleviate the effects of the relevant Change in Law on the Adversely Affected Party, which may include an agreement between the Parties to share the relevant incremental losses incurred by the Adversely Affected Party or the amendment of any Transaction Document. In identifying the Consequential Steps, the Parties shall, as far as is reasonably practicable, do so in a manner that preserves the balance of the commercial agreement (including economic benefits, risk allocation, costs and Liabilities) existing between the Parties under this Agreement as of the Effective Date. In the event the Parties cannot reach agreement on the Consequential Steps and on the implementation of the same within 30 Business Days of receipt by the Non-Affected Party of the Change in Law Notice, either Party may terminate this Agreement by giving the other Party 30 Business Days advance notice of such termination.

ny-1739899


28.	MISCELLANEOUS

28.1

Survival. Termination or expiration of this Agreement shall not affect any rights or obligations that may have accrued prior to termination, including any in respect of antecedent breaches and, for the avoidance of doubt but subject to the terms of this Agreement, any rights or obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents in respect of transactions entered into up to and including the date of termination or expiration of this Agreement. The obligations of each Party that expressly survive termination, are required to take effect on or give effect to termination or the consequences of termination or which by their very nature must survive termination shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding termination of this Agreement.


28.2	Entire Agreement; Amendments.

28.2.1

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties regarding the matters contemplated herein or related thereto and no representations or warranties shall be implied or provisions added hereto in the absence of a written agreement to such effect between the Parties after the Effective Date; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall limit, impair or contravene the Parties’ or their Affiliates’ rights as set forth in any Specified Transaction (whether entered into prior to, on or after the Effective Date) regarding the collection and determination of margin and collateral, the exporting or importing of events of default, termination events or the netting and setting off of amounts due.

28.2.2

Subject to Section 28.2.3, this Agreement may not be altered, amended, modified or otherwise changed in any respect except by a writing duly executed by an authorized representative of each Party and no representations or warranties shall be implied or terms added in the absence of a writing signed by both Parties. No promise, representation or inducement has been made by either Party that is not embodied in this Agreement, and neither Party shall be bound by or liable for any alleged representation, promise or inducement not so set forth.


28.2.3	The parties may from time to time remove a Product from, add a Product to or modify a Product on Schedule A (each, a “Product Change”) or remove a Tank from Schedule B or add a removed Tank back to Schedule B (each, a “Tank Status Change”) in accordance with the following procedures:

(a) Each Product Change or Tank Status Change shall be evidenced by an exchange of emails between the parties which shall specifically reference (i) in the case of a Product Change, the Product being removed, added or modified, the effective date of such Product Change and, if such Product Change is known to be temporary, the date or expected date as

ny-1739899

of which such Product Change is to end and (ii) in the case of a Tank Status Change, the Tank, indicate the nature of the Tank Status Change (i.e., whether it is being removed from or added to Schedule B), the effective date of such Tank Status Change and, if such Tank Status Change is known to be temporary, the date or expected date as of which such Tank Status Change is expected to end (it being acknowledged that such expected date is merely for informational purposes). Either party may initiate this email exchange, but such email exchange shall only be effective to bind the parties once the second party has responded via email in a manner sufficient to confirm its agreement to the Product Change or Tank Status Change reflected in the initial email. Any matter other than a Product Change or Tank Status Change that is addressed or discussed in any such email communications shall not be binding on the parties.

(b) An exchange of emails complying with the terms of this Section 28.2.3 shall (notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein) constitute an amendment of Schedule A or B as applicable with respect to the relevant Product or Tank.

(c) Whenever, as a result of any Tank Status Change effected in accordance with the foregoing procedures, a Tank is (i) included on Schedule B, it shall constitute an Included Location for purposes of the Agreement or (ii) excluded from such Schedule B, it shall cease to constitute an Included Location for purposes of the Agreement, in each case as of the relevant effective date

28.3

Severability. If at any time any court of competent jurisdiction declares that any provision of this Agreement is or any provision of this Agreement becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under any Applicable Law of any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the Applicable Law of any other jurisdiction will be affected or impaired in any way. The Parties will negotiate in good faith with a view to reform this Agreement in order to give effect to the original intention of the Parties and produce as nearly as is practicable in all the circumstances the appropriate balance of the commercial interests of the Parties. The failure to agree upon such provisions for any reason or no reason shall not be considered a breach of this Agreement.

28.4

Waiver and Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy under this Agreement or provided by Applicable Law shall operate as a waiver, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy prevent any further or other exercise or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The rights, powers and remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies. Any waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach.

ny-1739899


28.5	Time Is of the Essence. Time shall be of the essence for this Agreement with respect to all aspects of each Party’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement.


28.6	No Third-Party Beneficiaries. There are no third party beneficiaries to this Agreement and the provisions of this Agreement shall not impart any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim enforceable by any person, firm or organization other than the Parties and their successors in interest and permitted assigns.

28.7

Announcements. At no time during the Term of this Agreement, and for a period of two years following its expiration or termination, shall any Party issue any press announcement or public statement regarding this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party, except as may be required by Applicable Law or applicable stock exchange rules or requirements or to the extent public disclosure is required under the circumstances described in any relevant confidentiality agreement entered into between the Parties. The issuing Party will:


28.7.1	use all reasonable efforts to notify the other Party of the content of such announcement at least three Business Days prior to such issue (unless otherwise required by Applicable Law or to the extent public disclosure is required under the circumstances described in any relevant confidentiality agreement entered into by the Parties); and


28.7.2	take the other Party’s comments on the proposed announcement into account as is reasonable under the circumstances, provided such comments are received within two Business Days of the notification.


28.8	Expenses. Each Party shall pay its own costs, fees and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by such Party in connection with the Transaction Documents and any costs, fees and expenses incident to the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereunder.

28.9

Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the Parties in separate counterparts and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile or electronic transmission, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the Party executing (or on whose behalf the signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or electronic signature page were an original thereof.
