(a) During each Contract Quarter during the Term and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Delek Refining shall throughput at least the Minimum Throughput Commitment at the Terminal, and Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ shall make available to Delek Refining dedicated storage and throughput capacity at the Terminal, at all times sufficient to allow Delek Refining to throughput the Minimum Throughput Capacity at the Terminal.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that there shall be no carry-over of deficiency volumes with respect to the Minimum Throughput Commitment and the payment by Delek Refining of the Shortfall Payment shall relieve Delek Refining of any obligation to meet such Minimum Throughput Commitment for the relevant Contract Quarter.

21. INSURANCE

(a) Business Interruption Insurance. Delek Refining shall maintain commercially reasonable business interruption insurance for the benefit of the Terminal for so long as Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ is a consolidated subsidiary of Delek US. Allocation of benefits under such business interruption insurance policy shall be proportionate to the loss in operating margin sustained by Delek Refining and Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ as a result of the interruption.

(b) Insurance (Other than Business Interruption Insurance). During the Term of this Agreement, each of Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ and Delek Refining shall at all times carry and maintain, or cause to be carried and maintained, with reputable insurance companies reasonably acceptable to the other Party, the insurance coverages and limits set forth on Exhibit C.

22. GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS

23. SUSPENSION OF REFINERY OPERATIONS

(a) From and after the second anniversary of the Effective Date, in the event that Delek Refining decides to permanently or indefinitely suspend refining operations at the Refinery for a period that shall continue for at least twelve (12) consecutive months, Delek Refining may provide written notice to Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ of Delek Refining’s intent to terminate this Agreement (the “Suspension Notice”). Such Suspension Notice shall be sent at any time (but not prior to the second anniversary of the Effective Date) after Delek Refining has notified Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ of such suspension and, upon the expiration of the period of twelve (12) months (which may run concurrently with the twelve (12) month period described in the immediately preceding sentence) following the date such notice is sent (the “Notice Period”), this Agreement shall terminate. If Delek Refining notifies Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇, more than two months prior to the expiration of the Notice Period, of its intent to resume operations at the Refinery, then the Suspension Notice shall be deemed revoked and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such Suspension Notice had never been delivered. Subject to Section 24(a), during this Notice Period, Delek Refining shall remain liable for the Deficiency Payments and for Storage Fees. During the Notice Period, Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ may terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days prior written notice in order to enter into an agreement to provide any third party the services provided to the Delek Refining under this Agreement.

(b) If refining operations at the Refinery are suspended for any reason (including refinery turnaround operations and other scheduled maintenance), then Delek Refining shall remain liable for Shortfall Payments under this Agreement for the duration of the suspension and for payment of the Storage Fees, unless and until this Agreement is terminated as provided above. Delek Refining shall provide at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of any suspension of operations at the Refinery due to a planned turnaround or scheduled maintenance, provided that Delek Refining shall not have any liability for any failure to notify, or delay in notifying, Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ of any such suspension except to the extent Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ has been materially damaged by such failure or delay.

24. FORCE MAJEURE

(a) Subject to Section 6(c), in the event that either Party is rendered unable, wholly or in part, by a Force Majeure event to perform its obligations under this Agreement, then upon the delivery by such Party (the “Force Majeure Party”) of written notice (a “Force Majeure Notice”) and full particulars of the Force Majeure event within a reasonable time after the occurrence of the Force Majeure event relied on, the obligations of the Parties, to the extent they are affected by the Force Majeure event, shall be suspended for the duration of any inability so caused; provided that (A) prior to the third anniversary of the Effective Date, Delek Refining shall be required to continue to make payments (i) for the Terminalling Services Fee for volumes actually throughput under this Agreement, (ii) for the Ancillary Services Fee, if any, for services performed, (iii) for the Storage Fee, and (iv) for any Shortfall Payments unless, in the case of (iii) and (iv), the Force Majeure event is an event that adversely affects Delek-Big Sandy’s ability to perform the services it is required to perform under this Agreement, in which case, as applicable, the Storage Fees shall only be paid to the extent Delek Refining utilizes Delek-Big Sandy’s storage for its Products during the applicable month and, instead of Shortfall Payments, Terminalling Service Fees shall only be paid as provided under (A)(i) above, and (B) from and after the third anniversary of the Effective Date, Delek Refining shall be required to continue to make payments (i) for the Terminalling Services Fee for volumes actually throughput under this Agreement, (ii) for the Ancillary Services Fee, if any, for services performed and (iii) for the Storage Fee to the extent Delek Refining utilizes Delek-Big Sandy’s storage for its Products during the applicable month. The Force Majeure Party shall identify in such Force Majeure Notice the approximate length of time that it believes in good faith such Force Majeure event shall continue (the “Force Majeure Period”). Delek Refining shall be required to pay any amounts accrued and due under this Agreement at the time of the Force Majeure event. The cause of the Force Majeure event shall so far as possible be remedied with all reasonable dispatch, except that no Party shall be compelled to resolve any strikes, lockouts or other industrial disputes other than as it shall determine to be in its best interests. Prior to the third anniversary of the Effective Date, any suspension of the obligations of the Parties under this Section 24(a) as a result of a Force Majeure event that adversely affects Delek-Big Sandy’s ability to perform the services it is required to perform under this Agreement shall extend the Term for the same period of time as such Force Majeure event continues (up to a maximum of one year) unless this Agreement is terminated under Section 24(b).

 

12

---

(b) If the Force Majeure Party advises in any Force Majeure Notice that it reasonably believes in good faith that the Force Majeure Period shall continue for more than twelve (12) consecutive months beyond the third anniversary of the Effective Date, then at any time after the delivery of such Force Majeure Notice, either Party may deliver to the other Party a notice of termination (a “Termination Notice”), which Termination Notice shall become effective not earlier than twelve (12) months after the later to occur of (i) the delivery of the Termination Notice and (ii) the third anniversary of the Effective Date; provided, however, that such Termination Notice shall be deemed cancelled and of no effect if the Force Majeure Period ends before the Termination Notice becomes effective; provided, further, that upon the cancellation of any Termination Notice, the Parties’ respective obligations hereunder shall resume as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, and the Term shall be extended by the same period of time as is required for the Parties to resume such obligations. After the third anniversary of the Effective Date and following delivery of a Termination Notice, Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ may terminate this Agreement, to the extent affected by the Force Majeure event, upon sixty (60) days prior written notice to Delek Refining in order to enter into an agreement to provide any third party the services provided to Delek Refining under this Agreement; provided, however, that Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement for so long as Delek Refining continues to the make Shortfall Payments.

25. CAPABILITIES OF FACILITIES

(a) Interruptions of Service. Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ shall use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize the interruption of service at the Terminal and any portion thereof and shall use its best efforts to minimize the impact of any such interruption on Delek Refining. Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ shall inform Delek Refining at least 60 days in advance (or promptly, in the case of an unplanned interruption) of any anticipated partial or complete interruption of service at the Terminal, including relevant information about the nature, extent, cause and expected duration of the interruption and the actions Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ is taking to resume full operations, provided that Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ shall not have any liability for any failure to notify, or delay in notifying, Delek Refining of any such matters except to the extent Delek Refining has been materially damaged by such failure or delay.

(b) Maintenance and Repair Standards. Subject to Force Majeure and interruptions for routine repair and maintenance consistent with customary terminal industry standards, Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ shall maintain the Terminal in a condition and with a capacity sufficient to throughput a volume of Delek Refining’s Products at least equal to the Minimum Throughput Capacity and to store a volume of Delek Refining’s Products at least equal to the Minimum Storage Capacity. Delek-Big Sandy’s obligations may be temporarily suspended during the occurrence of, and for the entire duration of, a Force Majeure or interruptions for routine repair and maintenance consistent with industry standards that prevents Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ from terminalling the Minimum Throughput Capacity or storing the Minimum Storage Capacity. To the extent Delek Refining is prevented for 30 or more days in any Contract Year from terminalling volumes equal to the full Minimum Throughput Capacity or using the Minimum Storage Capacity for reasons of Force Majeure or other interruption of service affecting the facilities or assets of Delek Big-▇▇▇▇▇, then Delek Refining’s Minimum Throughput Commitment shall be proportionately reduced to the extent of the difference between the Minimum Throughput Capacity and the amount that Delek Refining can effectively throughput at the Terminal (prorated for the portion of the Contract Quarter during which the Minimum Throughput Capacity was unavailable) regardless of whether the actual throughput prior to the reduction was below the Minimum Throughput Commitment, and the Storage Fee shall be reduced by an amount of $0.57 per barrel (which amount shall be adjusted in accordance with adjustments to the Storage Fee provided for in Sections 3(e), 5 and 8(a) above, if applicable, and prorated for the portion of the applicable month during which such storage was unavailable) for each barrel less than the Minimum Storage Capacity that Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ is unable to store at the Terminal, regardless of whether Delek Refining actually used such storage capacity. At such time as Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ is capable of terminalling volumes equal to the Minimum Throughput Capacity or using the Minimum Storage Capacity, as applicable, Delek Refining’s obligation to throughput the full Minimum Throughput Commitment and to pay the full Storage Fee shall be restored. If for any reason, including, without limitation, a Force Majeure event, the throughput or storage capacity of the Terminal should fall below the Minimum Throughput Capacity or the Minimum Storage Capacity, respectively, then with due diligence and dispatch, Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ shall make repairs to the Terminal to restore the capacity of the Terminal to that required for throughput of the Minimum Throughput Capacity or using the Minimum Storage Capacity (“Restoration”). Except as provided below in Section 25(c), all of such Restoration shall be at Delek-Big Sandy’s cost and expense, unless the damage creating the need for such repairs was caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Delek Refining, its employees, agents or customers.

---

(c) Capacity Resolution. In the event of the failure of Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ to maintain the Terminal in a condition and with a capacity sufficient (i) to throughput a volume of Delek Refining’s Products equal to the Minimum Throughput Capacity or (ii) to store a volume of Delek Refining’s Products at least equal to the Minimum Storage Capacity, then either Party shall have the right to call a meeting between executives of both Parties by providing at least two (2) Business Days’ advance written notice. Any such meeting shall be held at a mutually agreeable location and will be attended by executives of both Parties each having sufficient authority to commit his or her respective Party to a Capacity Resolution (hereinafter defined). At the meeting, the Parties will negotiate in good faith with the objective of reaching a joint resolution for the Restoration of capacity on the Terminal which will, among other things, specify steps to be taken by Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ to fully accomplish Restoration and the deadlines by which the Restoration must be completed (the “Capacity Resolution”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Capacity Resolution shall set forth an agreed upon time schedule for the Restoration activities. Such time schedule shall be reasonable under the circumstances, consistent with customary terminal industry standards and shall take into consideration Delek-Big Sandy’s economic considerations relating to costs of the repairs and Delek Refining’s requirements concerning its refining and marketing operations. Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ shall use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to provide storage and throughput of Delek Refining’s Products at the Terminal, to the extent the Terminal has capability of doing so, during the period before Restoration is completed. In the event that Delek Refining’s economic considerations justify incurring additional costs to complete the Restoration in a more expedited manner than the time schedule determined in accordance with the preceding sentence, Delek Refining may require Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ to expedite the Restoration to the extent reasonably possible, subject to Delek Refining’s payment, in advance, of the estimated incremental costs to be incurred as a result of the expedited time schedule. In the event the Parties agree to an expedited Restoration plan wherein Delek Refining agrees to fund a portion of the Restoration cost, then neither Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 24 above, so long as such Restoration is completed with due diligence and dispatch, and Delek Refining shall pay its portion of the Restoration costs to Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ in advance based on a good faith estimate based on reasonable engineering standards. Upon completion, Delek Refining shall pay the difference between the actual portion of Restoration costs to be paid by Delek Refining pursuant to this Section 25(c) and the estimated amount paid under the preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after receipt of Delek-Big Sandy’s invoice therefor, or, if appropriate, Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ shall pay Delek Refining the excess of the estimate paid by Delek Refining over Delek-Big Sandy’s actual costs as previously described within thirty (30) days after completion of the Restoration.

(d) Dedicated Storage. The storage tanks at the Terminal shall be dedicated and used exclusively for the storage and throughput of Delek Refining’s Product. Delek Refining shall be responsible for providing all tank heels required for operation of such tanks.

26. TERMINATION

(a) A Party shall be in default under this Agreement if:

(i) the Party materially breaches any provision of this Agreement and such breach is not cured within fifteen (15) calendar days after notice thereof (which notice shall describe such breach in reasonable detail) is received by such Party; or

(ii) the Party (1) files a petition or otherwise commences, authorizes or acquiesces in the commencement of a proceeding or cause of action under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar Applicable Law, or has any such petition filed or commenced against it, (2) makes an assignment or any general arrangement for the benefit of creditors, (3) otherwise becomes bankrupt or insolvent (however evidenced) or (4) as a liquidator, administrator, receiver, trustee, conservator or similar official appointed with respect to it or any substantial portion of its property or assets;

(b) If any of the Parties is in default as described above, then (i) if Delek Refining is in default, Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ may or (ii) if Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ is in default, Delek Refining may: (1) terminate this Agreement upon notice to the defaulting Party; (2) withhold any payments due to the defaulting Party under this Agreement; and/or (3) pursue any other remedy at law or in equity.

 

14

---

(c) Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ shall be responsible for removing any remaining Products of Delek Refining from the Terminal. Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ shall have the right to sell such Products at market rates and return any proceeds to Delek Refining, less delivery costs in effect at the time of such sale.

(d) Delek Refining shall, upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, promptly remove any and all of its owned equipment, if any, and restore the Terminal to its condition prior to the installation of such equipment.

27. ASSIGNMENT; PARTNERSHIP CHANGE OF CONTROL

(a) Delek Refining shall not assign its obligations hereunder without Delek-Big Sandy’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however that (i) Delek Refining may assign this Agreement without Delek-Big Sandy’s consent in connection with a sale by Delek Refining of all or substantially all of the Refinery, including by merger, equity sale, asset sale or otherwise, so long as the transferee: (1) agrees to assume all of Delek Refining’s obligations under this Agreement and (2) is financially and operationally capable of fulfilling the terms of this Agreement, which determination shall be made by Delek Refining in its reasonable judgment; and (ii) Delek Refining shall be permitted to make a collateral assignment of this Agreement solely to secure financing for Delek US and its Affiliates.

(b) Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ shall not assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement without prior written consent from Delek Refining, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that (i) Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ may assign this Agreement without Delek Refining’s consent in connection with a sale by Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ of the Terminal, including by merger, equity sale, asset sale or otherwise so long as the transferee: (1) agrees to assume all of Delek-Big Sandy’s obligations under this Agreement; (2) is financially and operationally capable of fulfilling the terms of this Agreement, which determination shall be made by Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ in its reasonable judgment; and (3) is not a competitor of Delek Refining, as determined by Delek Refining in good faith; and (ii) Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ shall be permitted to make a collateral assignment of this Agreement solely to secure financing for Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ and its Affiliates.

(c) Any assignment that is not undertaken in accordance with the provisions set forth above shall be null and void ab initio. A Party making any assignment shall promptly notify the other Party of such assignment, regardless of whether consent is required.

(d) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be waived in writing at any time by the Party entitled to the benefits thereof. No waiver of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or any breach thereof, will be effective unless in writing signed by a duly authorized individual on behalf of the Party against which the waiver is sought to be enforced.

---

(b) Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings of the Parties in connection therewith.

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

(d) Arbitration Provision. Any and all Arbitrable Disputes shall be resolved through the use of binding arbitration using three arbitrators, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, as supplemented to the extent necessary to determine any procedural appeal questions by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code). If there is any inconsistency between this Section 29(d) and the Commercial Arbitration Rules or the Federal Arbitration Act, the terms of this Section 29(d) will control the rights and obligations of the Parties. Arbitration must be initiated within the time limits set forth in this Agreement, or if no such limits apply, then within a reasonable time or the time period allowed by the applicable statute of limitations. Arbitration may be initiated by a Party (“Claimant”) serving written notice on the other Party (“Respondent”) that the Claimant elects to refer the Arbitrable Dispute to binding arbitration. Claimant’s notice initiating binding arbitration must identify the arbitrator Claimant has appointed. The Respondent shall respond to Claimant within thirty (30) days after receipt of Claimant’s notice, identifying the arbitrator Respondent has appointed. If the Respondent fails for any reason to name an arbitrator within the 30-day period, Claimant shall petition the American Arbitration Association for appointment of an arbitrator for Respondent’s account. The two arbitrators so chosen shall select a third arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the second arbitrator has been appointed. The Claimant will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by or for it, and the Respondent will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by or for it. The costs of petitioning for the appointment of an arbitrator, if any, shall be paid by Respondent. The Claimant and Respondent will each pay one-half of the compensation and expenses of the third arbitrator. All arbitrators must (i) be neutral parties who have never been officers, directors or employees of Delek Refining, Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ or any of their Affiliates and (ii) have not less than seven (7) years experience in the energy industry. The hearing will be conducted in Houston, Texas and commence within thirty (30) days after the selection of the third arbitrator. Delek Refining, Delek-Big ▇▇▇▇▇ and the arbitrators shall proceed diligently and in good faith in order that the award may be made as promptly as possible. Except as provided in the Federal Arbitration Act, the decision of the arbitrators will be binding on and non-appealable by the Parties hereto. The arbitrators shall have no right to grant or award Special Damages.

(e) Confidentiality.

(i) Obligations. Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to retain the other Party’s Confidential Information in confidence and not disclose the same to any third party nor use the same, except as authorized by the disclosing Party in writing or as expressly permitted in this Section 29(e)(i). Each Party further agrees to take the same care with the other Party’s Confidential Information as it does with its own, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care.

(ii) Required Disclosure. Notwithstanding Section 29(e)(i) above, if the receiving Party becomes legally compelled to disclose the Confidential Information by a court, Governmental Authority or Applicable Law, including the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or is required to disclose pursuant to the rules and regulations of any national securities exchange upon which the receiving Party or its parent entity is listed, any of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, the receiving Party shall promptly advise the disclosing Party of such requirement to disclose Confidential Information as soon as the receiving Party becomes aware that such a requirement to disclose might become effective, in order that, where possible, the disclosing Party may seek a protective order or such other remedy as the disclosing Party may consider appropriate in the circumstances. The receiving Party shall disclose only that portion of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information that it is required to disclose and shall cooperate with the disclosing Party in allowing the disclosing Party to obtain such protective order or other relief.

(iii) Return of Information. Upon written request by the disclosing Party, all of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in whatever form shall be returned to the disclosing Party upon termination of this Agreement or destroyed with destruction certified by the receiving Party, without the receiving Party retaining copies thereof except that one copy of all such Confidential Information may be retained by a Party’s legal department solely to the extent that such Party is required to keep a copy of such Confidential Information pursuant to Applicable Law, and the receiving Party shall be entitled to retain any Confidential Information in the electronic form or stored on automatic computer back-up archiving systems during the period such backup or archived materials are retained under such Party’s customary procedures and policies; provided, however, that any Confidential Information retained by the receiving Party shall be maintained subject to confidentiality pursuant to the terms of this Section 29(e), and such archived or back-up Confidential Information shall not be accessed except as required by Applicable Law.

(iv) Receiving Party Personnel. The receiving Party will limit access to the Confidential Information of the disclosing Party to those of its employees, attorneys and contractors that have a need to know such information in order for the receiving Party to exercise or perform its rights and obligations under this Agreement (the “Receiving Party Personnel”). The Receiving Party Personnel who have access to any Confidential Information of the disclosing Party will be made aware of the confidentiality provision of this Agreement, and will be required to abide by the terms thereof. Any third party contractors that are given access to Confidential Information of a disclosing Party pursuant to the terms hereof shall be required to sign a written agreement pursuant to which such Receiving Party Personnel agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, which written agreement will expressly state that it is enforceable against such Receiving Party Personnel by the disclosing Party.

(v) Survival. The obligation of confidentiality under this Section 29(e) shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of two (2) years.

(f) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including by facsimile or portable document format (pdf)) for the convenience of the Parties hereto, each of which counterparts will be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts together will constitute one and the same agreement.

(g) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be valid and effective under Applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any person or circumstance will be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision hereof, and the Parties will negotiate in good faith with a view to substitute for such provision a suitable and equitable solution in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

(h) No Third Party Beneficiaries. It is expressly understood that the provisions of this Agreement do not impart enforceable rights in anyone who is not a Party or successor or permitted assignee of a Party.

(i) Schedules. The schedules attached hereto and referred to herein is hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein.

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