RECITALS

A. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given them on Exhibit A to this Agreement.

B. The Company was formed as a limited liability company pursuant to a Certificate of Formation (the “Certificate of Formation”) filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware on December 3, 2012 in accordance with the provisions of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (such statute and any successor statute, as amended from time to time, being herein called the “Act”).

C. The undersigned desire to execute this Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions under which the management, business, and financial affairs of the Company will be conducted.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual promises, covenants and conditions herein contained, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned parties hereby covenant and agree as follows:

FORMATION OF COMPANY

1.1 Formation. The Company has been organized as a Delaware limited liability company by the filing of its Certificate of Formation under and pursuant to the Act.

1.2 Required Filings. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇ was designated as an “authorized person” within the meaning of the Act and has signed, delivered, and filed the Certificate of Formation with the Delaware Secretary of State. Upon the filing of the Certificate of Formation with the Delaware Secretary of State, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇’▇ powers as an “authorized person” ceased, and the Initial Member, as the sole and managing member of the Company, thereupon became a designated “authorized person” within the meaning of the Act and will continue as a designated “authorized person” within the meaning of the Act. The Initial Member hereby approves, authorizes, and ratifies any and all actions taken by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇ in her capacity as an authorized person in connection with the organization of the Company. To the extent any provision of this Agreement conflicts with any provision of the Certificate of Formation, the provisions of the Certificate of Formation govern.

Page 1

1.3 Name. The name of the Company is “Tesoro Logistics Pipelines LLC”. All Company business shall be conducted in that name or such other names that comply with applicable law as the Initial Member may select from time to time.

1.4 Purpose; Powers. The purpose of the Company is to engage in any lawful business or activity in which a limited liability company may be engaged under the Act.

1.5 Term. The Company commenced upon the filing of the Certificate of Formation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and shall continue in existence as a separate legal entity until the Company is terminated in accordance with this Agreement and a certificate of dissolution is filed in accordance with the Act.

1.6 Principal Place of Business; Registered Office and Registered Agent.

(a) The principal place of business of the Company shall be at the address set forth opposite its name on Exhibit B to this Agreement.

(b) The Company’s initial registered office and initial registered agent shall be as provided in the Certificate of Formation. The registered office and registered agent may be changed from time to time by filing the address of the new registered office and/or the name of the new registered agent pursuant to the Act.

1.7 No State Law Partnership. The Company shall not be considered a partnership (including, without limitation, a limited partnership) or joint venture. In the event there is more than one member of the Company (each, a “Member”), no Member shall be a partner or joint venturer of any other Member for any purposes other than federal and state tax purposes, and this Agreement shall not be construed to suggest otherwise.

1.8 Title to Company Property. All property owned by the Company shall be owned by the Company as an entity. Insofar as permitted by applicable law, no Member shall have any ownership interest in any Company property in its individual name or right, and each Member’s Membership Interest shall be personal property for all purposes.

1.9 Limited Liability. No Member or agent of the Company shall have any personal obligation for any debt, obligation or liability of the Company, to the maximum extent that such limitation on liability is permitted by the Act.

1.10 Tax Matters. The Company shall be disregarded as an entity separate from its Member for federal income tax purposes in accordance with Treas. Reg. § 301.7701-3(b)(1)(ii) as long as all of the Membership Interests of the Company are owned by a single member. Neither the Company, nor any Member or any officer shall file any election to the contrary. Except as provided above and elsewhere in this Agreement, the Initial Member shall make such tax elections on behalf of the Company as it shall deem appropriate.
