ARTICLE VI
COVENANTS

6.1 Additional Agreements. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents and the Omnibus Agreement, each of the Parties shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to do, or cause to be taken all action and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under Applicable Laws to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If at any time after the Closing Date any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the Parties and their duly authorized representatives shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly take all such action.

6.2 Further Assurances. After the Closing, each Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take such further actions, including obtaining or transferring to the other Party all necessary Permits, Consents, orders and Contracts, and executing and causing its Affiliates to execute such further documents, as may be necessary or reasonably requested by the other Party in order to effectuate the intent of this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents and to provide such other Party with the intended benefits of this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge that the Parties have used their good faith efforts to identify all of the assets and operations to be assigned, transferred, contributed and conveyed to the Partnership in connection with this Agreement. However, due to the age of some of the assets or operations and the difficulties in locating appropriate data with respect to some of the assets included in these operations, it is possible that some of the assets intended to be assigned, transferred, contributed or conveyed ultimately to the Partnership were not identified and therefore are not assigned, transferred, contributed or conveyed (directly or indirectly) to the Partnership as of the Effective Time. To the extent that any assets were not identified but form an integral part of the assets and operations of Valero ▇▇▇▇▇ and are not needed for the conduct of any of the businesses conducted by Valero and its Affiliates, then the intent of the Parties is that all such unidentified assets are intended to be assigned, transferred, contributed and conveyed to the Partnership pursuant to this Agreement. To the extent any such assets are identified at a later date, the Parties shall take all appropriate action required in order to assign, transfer, contribute or convey such assets to the Partnership. Likewise, to the extent that any assets or operations that are indirectly assigned, transferred, contributed or conveyed to the Partnership hereunder are later identified by the Parties as assets and operations that the Parties did not intend to assign, transfer, contribute or convey to the Partnership, the Parties shall take all appropriate action required to assign, transfer, contribute or convey such assets and operations to VTDC.

6.3 Cooperation on Tax Matters. Following the Closing Date, the Parties shall cooperate fully with each other and shall make available to the other, as reasonably requested and at the expense of the requesting Party, and to any Governmental Authority responsible for the administration of any tax, all information, records or documents relating to tax liabilities or potential tax liabilities of Valero ▇▇▇▇▇ for all periods at or prior to the Effective Time and any information which may

be relevant to determining the amount payable hereunder, and shall preserve all such information, records and documents at least until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations or extensions thereof.

6.4 Cooperation for Litigation and Other Actions. Each Party shall cooperate reasonably with each other Party, at the requesting Party’s expense (but including only out-of-pocket expenses to unaffiliated third parties, photocopying and delivery costs and not the costs incurred by either Party for the wages or other benefits paid to its officers, directors or employees), in furnishing reasonably available information, testimony and other assistance in connection with any Claims or other disputes involving any of the Parties hereto (other than in connection with disputes between the Parties).

6.5 Retention of and Access to Books and Records.

(a) As promptly as practicable and in any event before 90 days after the Closing Date, VTDC will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Partnership, the Books and Records that are in the possession or control of VTDC or its Affiliates.

(b) The Partnership agrees to afford VTDC and its Affiliates and their respective accountants, counsel and other designated individuals, during normal business hours, upon reasonable request, at a mutually agreeable time, full access to and the right to make copies of the Books and Records at no cost to VTDC or its Affiliates (other than for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses); provided that such access will not be construed to require the disclosure of Books and Records that would cause the waiver of any attorney-client, work product or like privilege; provided, further, that in the event of any litigation, nothing herein shall limit either Party’s rights of discovery under Applicable Law. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentences, the Partnership agrees to provide VTDC and its Affiliates reasonable access to and the right to make copies of the Books and Records after the Closing for the purposes of assisting VTDC and its Affiliates (i) in complying with VTDC’s obligations under this Agreement and any Ancillary Document; (ii) in adjusting, prorating and settling the charges and credits provided for under this Agreement and any Ancillary Document; (iii) in preparing tax returns; (iv) in responding to or disputing any tax audit; (v) in asserting, defending or otherwise dealing with any Claim or dispute, known or unknown, under this Agreement; (vi) in asserting, defending or otherwise dealing with any third-party Claim or dispute by or against VTDC or its Affiliates relating to Valero ▇▇▇▇▇; or (vii) in performing their obligations under the Omnibus Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.5 or anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, with respect to any Books and Records the transfer or other disclosure of which to the Partnership would waive (or would reasonably risk the waiver of) any attorney/client, work product, tax practitioner, audit or other privilege relating to the Retained Liabilities, VTDC shall not be required to transfer such Books and Records (or any copies thereof) to the Partnership until the Parties enter into a mutually-agreed joint defense agreement to allow for the sharing of common defense privileged materials.

6.6 NYSE. Prior to the issuance of the Unit Consideration, the Partnership shall cause the Unit Consideration to be approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange.

ARTICLE VII
INDEMNIFICATION

7.1 Indemnification. From and after the Closing and subject to the provisions of this Article VII, (a) VTDC agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Partnership Indemnified Costs and (b) the Partnership agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the VTDC Indemnified Parties from and against any and all VTDC Indemnified Costs. For the avoidance of doubt, but subject to Section 7.5, the foregoing indemnification is intended to be in addition to and not in limitation of any indemnification to which the Parties may be entitled under the Ancillary Documents. For purposes of calculating Indemnified Costs (but not determining whether a breach has occurred), no effect shall be given to any qualifications of representations or warranties as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect.

7.2 Defense of Third-Party Claims. An Indemnified Party shall give prompt written notice to VTDC or the Partnership, as applicable (the “Indemnifying Party”), of the commencement or assertion of any Claim by a third party (collectively, a “third-party action”) in respect of which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification hereunder. Any failure so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it, he, or she may have to such Indemnified Party under this Article VII unless the failure to give such notice materially and adversely prejudices the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume control of the defense of, settle, or otherwise dispose of such third-party action on such terms as it deems appropriate; provided, however, that:

(a) The Indemnified Party shall be entitled, at its own expense, to participate in the defense of such third-party action (provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall pay the attorneys’ fees of the Indemnified Party if (i) the employment of separate counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of such third-party action; (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party to have charge of such third-party action; (iii) the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to such Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or (iv) the Indemnified Party’s counsel shall have advised the Indemnified Party in writing, with a copy delivered to the Indemnifying Party, that there is a material conflict of interest that could violate applicable standards of professional conduct to have common counsel);

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written approval of the Indemnified Party before entering into or making any settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment of the validity of such third-party action or any liability in respect thereof if, pursuant to or as a result of such settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment, injunctive or other equitable relief would be imposed against the Indemnified Party or if, in the opinion of the Indemnified Party, such settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment could have a Material Adverse Effect with respect to the Indemnified Party;

(c) The Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement without the consent of the Indemnified Party that does not include as an

unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such third-party action; and

(d) The Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to control (but shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense of), and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to have sole control over, the defense or settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment of any third-party action (i) as to which the Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense within a reasonable length of time or (ii) to the extent the third-party action seeks an order, injunction, or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party which, if successful, would materially adversely affect the business, operations, assets, or financial condition of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall make no settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment that would give rise to liability on the part of any Indemnifying Party without the prior written consent of such Indemnifying Party.

The Parties shall extend reasonable cooperation in connection with the defense of any third-party action pursuant to this Article VII and, in connection therewith, shall furnish such records, information, and testimony and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials, and appeals as may be reasonably requested.

7.3 Direct Claims. In any case in which an Indemnified Party seeks indemnification hereunder which is not subject to Section 7.2 because no third-party action is involved, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of any Indemnified Costs which such Indemnified Party claims are subject to indemnification under the terms hereof. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.4(a), the failure of the Indemnified Party to exercise promptness in such notification shall not amount to a waiver of such claim unless the resulting delay materially prejudices the position of the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim.

7.4 Limitations. The following provisions of this Section 7.4 shall limit the indemnification obligations hereunder:

(a) The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any Indemnified Costs pursuant to this Article VII unless a written claim for indemnification in accordance with Section 7.2 or Section 7.3 is given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party with respect thereto on or before 5:00 p.m., San Antonio, Texas time, on or prior to the date that is 18 months after of the Closing Date; provided, however, that written claims for indemnification (i) for Indemnified Costs arising out of a breach of any representation or warranty contained in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.6, 5.1, 5.2 and 5.6 (the “Fundamental Representations”) may be made at any time and (ii) for Indemnified Costs arising out of a breach of any covenant may be made at any time prior to the expiration of such covenant according to its terms.

(b) An Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to pay for any Indemnified Costs under this Article VII until the amount of all such Indemnified Costs exceeds, in the aggregate, $1,800,000 (with the Indemnifying Party only being responsible for Indemnified Costs in excess of such amount). The aggregate liability of an Indemnifying Party under this Article VII shall not exceed $36,000,000. The limitations in the previous two sentences shall not apply to Indemnified Costs to the extent such costs arise out of a breach of any Fundamental Representations.

(c) Each Party acknowledges and agrees that, after the Closing Date, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Partnership’s and the other Partnership Indemnified Parties’ and VTDC’s and the other VTDC Indemnified Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy with respect to the Indemnified Costs shall be in accordance with, and limited by, the provisions set forth in this Article VII.

7.5 Remedies Under Ancillary Documents. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that this Article VII is not the remedy for and does not limit the Parties’ remedies for matters covered by the indemnification provisions contained in the Ancillary Documents. Any indemnification obligation of VTDC to the Partnership Indemnified Parties, on the one hand, or the Partnership to the VTDC Indemnified Parties, on the other hand, pursuant to this Article VII shall be reduced by an amount equal to any indemnification recovery by such Indemnified Parties pursuant to the other Ancillary Documents between the Parties to the extent that such other indemnification recovery arises out of the same event or circumstance giving rise to the indemnification obligation of VTDC or the Partnership, respectively, hereunder.

7.6 Tax Related Adjustments and Tax Reporting of Transactions.

(a) VTDC and the Partnership agree that any payment of Indemnified Costs made hereunder will be treated by the Parties on their tax returns as an adjustment to the Cash Distribution.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in clause (iii) of this Section 7.6(b), VTDC and the Partnership further acknowledge and agree that the transactions described in this Agreement are properly characterized as transactions described in Sections 721(a) and 731 of the Code and agree to file all tax returns in a manner consistent with such treatment. In this regard, VTDC and the Partnership agree that the Cash Distribution shall be treated (i) as a “debt-financed transfer” to VTDC under Treasury Regulation Section 1.707-5(b) to the extent the cash is traceable under the principles of Treasury Regulation Section 1.163-8T to VTDC’s allocable share, determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.707-5(b)(2), of indebtedness of the Partnership, (ii) as a reimbursement of capital expenditures (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.707-4(d)) with respect to the tankage and related assets owned by Valero ▇▇▇▇▇, to the extent that VTDC provides to the Partnership on or before January 15, 2017 a statement that states the amount of qualifying capital expenditures and evidence satisfactory to the Partnership documenting the capital expenditures and their qualification, and (iii) as the proceeds of a sale by assets by VTDC to the Partnership to the extent clause (i), clause (ii), or any other exception to the “disguised sale” rules under Section 707 and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, are inapplicable. The Parties acknowledge that Valero ▇▇▇▇▇ is disregarded for federal income tax purposes as an entity apart from VTDC. Except with the prior written consent of VTDC, the Partnership agrees to act at all times in a manner consistent with the foregoing intended treatment of the Cash Distribution, including, if required, disclosing the distribution of the Cash Distribution in accordance with the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.707-3(c)(2).

7.7 Express Negligence Rule. THE FOREGOING INDEMNITIES ARE INTENDED TO BE ENFORCEABLE AGAINST THE PARTIES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE EXPRESS TERMS AND SCOPE THEREOF NOTWITHSTANDING ANY EXPRESS NEGLIGENCE

RULE OR ANY SIMILAR DIRECTIVE THAT WOULD PROHIBIT OR OTHERWISE LIMIT INDEMNITIES BECAUSE OF THE SOLE, CONCURRENT, ACTIVE OR PASSIVE NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR FAULT OF ANY OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES.

(c)

all crude oil, intermediates and refined product pipelines to the extent they are (i) located wholly on, below, above and/or within the Premises and connect into the Tanks, or (ii) located partially on and partially off the Premises and used in connection with the operation of the Tanks (the “Facility Pipelines”), provided that pursuant to the Lease the Parties shall have the right to demarcate the point (as determined, the “Demarcation Point”) at which any such pipeline located partially on and partially off the Premises connects to any Refinery Pipeline (as defined in Lease) and that portion extending from the boundary of the Premises to the Demarcation Point shall be considered Facility Pipeline;

(d)

all licenses, permits, consents, authorizations and certificates issued, approved or granted by governmental authorities prior to the Effective Date which are necessary to and used exclusively in connection with the ownership and operation of the Terminal, together with all renewals and modifications thereof (the “Permits”) subject, in each instance, to the terms of the Permits and applicable legal requirements regarding transfer or assignment; and


(e)	all agreements, commitments and contracts related solely and exclusively to the Terminal or its operations (the “Contracts”) subject, in each instance, to the terms of the Contracts regarding assignment.

The Tanks, Personal Property, Facility Pipelines, Permits and Contracts are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Transferred Interests.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Transferred Interests do not include (i) the Premises, (ii) the Refinery Facilities (as defined in the Lease), (iii) the Refinery Pipelines (as defined in the Lease), or (iv) any properties, rights or interests being leased or licensed by Assignor to Assignee under Lease.

Assignee accepts the Transferred Interests and all rights and obligations related thereto, upon the terms set forth herein and without recourse against Assignor or any of its affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, employees or representatives.

4. If notice to, or the consent, authorization, permission or approval of, any third party (each, an “Approval” and collectively, the “Approvals”) is required for an assignment of any of the Permits or Contracts to be effective, the assignment to Assignee of such Permits or Contracts shall be effective upon the granting of such Approval. Assignee shall be solely responsible for securing all necessary Approvals and shall endeavor to do so as promptly as possible; provided, however, that Assignor shall reasonably cooperate with Assignee in securing Approvals so long as Assignor is not required to incur any costs or expenses (other than de minimis costs and expenses) as a result thereof. To the extent that the failure to obtain any Approval would give rise to the right on the part of any third party to terminate, or limit any right of Assignor or Assignee with respect to, any of the Permits or Contracts affected thereby, then any provision contained in this ▇▇▇▇ of Sale shall not become effective with respect to such Permits or Contracts unless and until such Approval has been obtained, waived or is no longer required. When such Approval has been obtained, waived or is no longer required, this ▇▇▇▇ of Sale shall automatically become effective without the need for any further action on the part of Assignor, Assignee or any other person and without payment of any further consideration. Until such time as any such Approval has been obtained or waived or is no longer required, Assignor shall (without infringing on the legal rights of any third party or violating any law) endeavor to provide Assignee with the equivalent benefits of the Permits or Contracts affected, by subcontract or otherwise, on the condition that Assignee shall (without infringing on the legal rights of any third party or violating any law) cooperate and assist in such efforts and shall bear all economic burdens and other obligations and liabilities of Assignor under the affected Permits or Contracts, notwithstanding the fact that the same have not been transferred to Assignee. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary herein, Assignor’s obligations under this paragraph shall expire on the one year anniversary of the Effective Date.

5. From time to time, at Assignee’s or Assignor’s request, whether on or after the Effective Date and without further consideration, Assignor or Assignee, as applicable shall take all such further action as is necessary or reasonably desirable to carry out the purposes of this ▇▇▇▇ of Sale (including executing and delivering or causing to be executed and delivered, any further instruments of assignment, conveyance or transfer, consents and other documents and providing any reasonably requested information), as the other party reasonably may request; provided, however, that Assignor’s obligations under this paragraph shall expire on the one year anniversary of the Effective Date and provided, further, that Assignor shall not be obligated to incur any costs or expenses (other than de minimis costs or expenses) under this paragraph.

6. This ▇▇▇▇ of Sale shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflicts of laws rules as applied in Texas. Venue for any action arising out of or in connection with this ▇▇▇▇ of Sale shall be exclusively in the appropriate state or federal courts located in Bexar County, Texas.

7. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, for so long as the Omnibus Agreement (as defined below) remains in full force and effect, to the extent of any conflict between the terms of this ▇▇▇▇ of Sale and the terms of the Omnibus Agreement, the terms of the Omnibus Agreement shall govern and control. Further, notwithstanding any waiver or agreement of either of the Parties hereto contained in this ▇▇▇▇ of Sale, no such waiver or agreement shall affect or limit the rights or remedies of such party or its affiliates under the Omnibus Agreement, or the obligations and liabilities of the other parties to the Omnibus Agreement. For purposes of this ▇▇▇▇ of Sale, the term “Omnibus Agreement” means that certain Amended and Restated Omnibus Agreement dated July 1, 2014, among Valero Energy Corporation, a Delaware corporation, Valero Marketing and Supply Company, a Delaware corporation, Valero Terminaling and Distribution Company, a Delaware corporation, The Premcor Refining Group Inc., a Delaware corporation, The Premcor Pipeline Co., a Delaware corporation, Valero Energy Partners LP, a Delaware limited partnership, Valero Energy Partners GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Valero Partners Operating Co.
