11

Prior to, upon or at any time after, commencement of any legal proceedings hereunder, make application to a court of competent jurisdiction as a matter of strict right and without notice to Grantor or regard to the adequacy of the Mortgaged Property for the satisfaction of the Obligations for appointment of a receiver of the Mortgaged Property, and Grantor does hereby irrevocably consent to such appointment. Any such receiver shall have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in similar cases, including the full power to rent, maintain and otherwise operate the Mortgaged Property upon such terms as may be approved by the court.
(d) Other. Exercise any and all other rights, remedies and recourses granted under this Deed of Trust.
8.2   Remedies Cumulative, Concurrent and Nonexclusive.

8.3   Obligations. Neither Grantor, any other Partnership Entity (as defined in the Pipelines Agreement) nor any other Person hereafter obligated for performance or fulfillment of all or any of the Obligations shall be relieved of such obligation by reason of (a) the failure of Trustee to comply with any request of Grantor or any other Person to enforce any provisions of this Deed of Trust; (b) the release, regardless of consideration, of the Mortgaged Property or the addition of any other property to the Mortgaged Property; (c) any agreement or stipulation between any subsequent owner of the Mortgaged Property and Beneficiary extending, renewing, rearranging or in any other way modifying the terms of the Security Documents without first having obtained the consent of, given notice to or paid any consideration to Grantor or such other Person, and in such event Grantor and all such other Persons shall continue to be liable to make payment according to the terms of any such extension or modification agreement unless expressly released and discharged in writing by Beneficiary; or (d) by any other act or occurrence save and except the complete fulfillment of all of the Obligations.

9.1   Security Interest. This Deed of Trust shall be construed as a deed of trust on real property and it shall (subject to the Senior Liens) also constitute and serve as a “Security Agreement” on personal property within the meaning of, and shall constitute a security interest under, the Uniform Commercial Code (as the same is codified and in effect in New Mexico) with respect to the Personalty, Fixtures and Leases. To this end, Grantor has GRANTED, BARGAINED, CONVEYED, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, AND SET OVER, and by these presents does GRANT, BARGAIN, CONVEY, ASSIGN, TRANSFER AND SET OVER, unto Trustee and unto Beneficiary, a security interest in all of Grantor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Personalty, Fixtures and Leases to secure the full and timely performance and discharge of the Obligations, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances.

15

 

    statements and assurances to be recorded and filed, at such times and places as may be required or permitted by law to so create, perfect and preserve such security interest.
 
9.3   Uniform Commercial Code Remedies. Subject, in each case, to the rights of any Lienholder under or pursuant to the Senior Liens, and the terms and provisions of the SNDA and this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary and/or Trustee shall have all the rights, remedies and recourses (other than auction and sale rights) with respect to the Personalty, Fixtures and Leases afforded to it by the aforesaid Uniform Commercial Code (as the same is codified and in effect in New Mexico) in addition to, and not in limitation of, the other rights, remedies and recourses afforded by this Deed of Trust.
 
9.4   No Obligation of Trustee or Beneficiary. The assignment and security interest herein granted shall not be deemed or construed to constitute Trustee or Beneficiary as a trustee in possession of the Mortgaged Property, to obligate Trustee or Beneficiary to lease the Mortgaged Property or attempt to do same, or to take any action, incur any expense or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever.
 
9.5   Fixture Filing. This Deed of Trust shall constitute a “fixture filing” for all purposes of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, as codified and in effect in New Mexico.

(“▇▇▇▇▇’▇”) and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group (“S&P”) (or any successor to the rating business of either thereof), then (i) this Deed of Trust shall be null and void, (ii) the liens and security interests created by this Deed of Trust shall be released as promptly as practicable, (iii) the Mortgaged Property shall revert to Grantor (or the transferee in the case of clause (b) above) free and clear of the liens and security interests created by this Deed of Trust, and (iv) Beneficiary and Trustee (as applicable) shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, instruments of satisfaction and release that are reasonably requested by Grantor.

ARTICLE 10
CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE
10.1   No Required Action. Trustee shall not be required to take any action toward the execution and enforcement of the trust hereby created or to institute, appear in or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in connection therewith where in his opinion such action will be likely to involve him in expense or liability, unless requested so to do by a written instrument signed by Beneficiary and, if Trustee so requests, unless Trustee is tendered security and indemnity satisfactory to him against any and all costs, expense and liabilities arising therefrom. Trustee shall not be responsible for the execution, acknowledgment or validity of the Security Documents, or for the proper authorization thereof, or for the sufficiency of the lien and security interest purported to be created hereby, and makes no representation in respect thereof or in respect of the rights, remedies and recourses of Beneficiary.
 
10.2   Certain Rights. With the approval of Beneficiary, Trustee shall have the right to take any and all of the following actions: (a) to select, employ and advise with counsel (who may be, but need not be, counsel for Beneficiary) upon any matters arising hereunder, including the preparation, execution and interpretation of the Security Documents, and shall be fully protected in relying as to legal matters on the advice of counsel; (b) to execute any of the trusts and powers hereof and to perform any duty hereunder either directly or through his agents or attorneys; (c) to select and employ, in and about the execution of his duties hereunder, suitable accountants, engineers and other experts, agents and attorneys-in-fact, either corporate or individual, not regularly in the employ of Trustee, and Trustee shall not be answerable for any act, default or misconduct of any such accountant, engineer or other expert, agent or attorney-in-fact, if selected with reasonable care, or for any error of judgment or act done by Trustee in good faith, or be otherwise responsible or accountable under any circumstances whatsoever, except for Trustee’s gross negligence or bad faith; and (d) to take any and all other lawful action as Beneficiary may instruct Trustee to take to protect or enforce Beneficiary’s rights hereunder. Trustee shall not be personally liable in case of entry by him, or anyone entering by virtue of the powers herein granted him, upon the Mortgaged Property for debts contracted or liability or damages incurred in the management or operation of the Mortgaged Property. Trustee shall have the right to rely on any instrument, document or signature authorizing or supporting any action taken or proposed to be taken by him hereunder, believed by him in good faith to be genuine. Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement for expenses incurred by him in the performance of his duties hereunder and to reasonable compensation for such of his services hereunder as shall be rendered. Grantor will, from time to time, pay the compensation due to Trustee hereunder and reimburse Trustee for, and save him harmless against, any and all liability and expenses which may be incurred by him in the performance of his duties.
 
10.3   Retention of Moneys. All moneys received by Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated in any manner from any other moneys (except to the extent required by

17

 

    law) and Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any moneys received by him hereunder.
 
10.4   Successor Trustees. Trustee may resign by the giving of notice of such resignation in writing to Beneficiary. If Trustee shall die, resign or become disqualified from acting in the execution of this trust, or shall fail or refuse to execute the same when requested by Beneficiary so to do, or if, for any reason, Beneficiary shall prefer to appoint a substitute trustee to act instead of the aforenamed Trustee, Beneficiary shall have full power to appoint a substitute trustee and, if preferred, several substitute trustees in succession who shall succeed to all the estates, properties, rights, powers and duties of the aforenamed Trustee. Such appointment may be executed by any authorized agent of Beneficiary, and if such Beneficiary be a corporation and such appointment be executed in its behalf by any officer of such corporation, such appointment shall be conclusively presumed to be executed with authority and shall be valid and sufficient without proof of any action by the Board of Directors or any superior officer of the corporation. Grantor hereby ratifies and confirms any and all acts which the aforenamed Trustee, or his successor or successors in this trust, shall do lawfully by virtue hereof.
 
10.5   Perfection of Appointment. Should any deed, conveyance or instrument of any nature be required from Grantor by any successor Trustee to more fully and certainly vest in and confirm to such new Trustee such estates, rights, powers and duties, then, upon request by such Trustee, any and all such deeds, conveyances and instruments shall be made, executed, acknowledged and delivered and shall be caused to be recorded and/or filed by Grantor.
 
10.6   Succession Instruments. Any new Trustee appointed pursuant to any of the provisions hereof shall, without any further act, deed or conveyance, become vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers and trusts of its or his predecessor in the rights hereunder with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but nevertheless, upon the written request of Beneficiary or of the successor Trustee, the Trustee ceasing to act shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee, upon the trusts herein expressed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers and trusts of the Trustee so ceasing to act, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver any of the property and moneys held by such Trustee to the successor Trustee so appointed in its or his place.
 
10.7   No Representation by Trustee. By accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed or fulfilled or to be given to Trustee or Beneficiary pursuant to the Security Documents, including but not limited to, any officer’s certificate, balance sheet, statement of profit and loss or other financial statement, survey, appraisal or insurance policy, neither Trustee nor Beneficiary shall be deemed to have warranted, consented to, or affirmed the sufficiency, legality, effectiveness or legal effect of the same, or of any term, provision or condition thereof, and such acceptance or approval thereof shall not be or constitute any warranty, consent or affirmation with respect thereto by Trustee or Beneficiary.

11.2   Survival of Obligations. Each and all of the Obligations shall survive the execution and delivery of the Security Documents and shall continue in full force and effect until the Obligations have been performed and discharged in full.
 
11.3   Further Assurances. Grantor, upon the request of Trustee or Beneficiary, will execute, acknowledge, deliver and record and/or file such further instruments and do such further acts as may be necessary, desirable or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of the Security Documents and to subject to the liens and security interests thereof any property intended by the terms thereof to be covered thereby, including specifically but without limitation, any renewals, additions, substitutions, replacements, betterments or appurtenances to the then Mortgaged Property.
 
11.4   Recording and Filing. Grantor will cause the Security Documents and all amendments and supplements thereto and substitutions therefor to be recorded, filed, re-recorded and refiled in such manner and in such places as Trustee or Beneficiary shall reasonably request, and will pay all such recording, filing, re-recording and refiling taxes, fees and other charges.
 
11.5   Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted to be given pursuant to this Deed of Trust shall be in writing and shall be considered as properly given if mailed by first-class United States mail, postage prepaid, registered or certified with return receipt requested, or by delivering same in person to the intended addressee or by prepaid telegram. Notice so mailed shall be effective two days following its deposit. Notice given in any other manner shall be effective only if and when received by the addressee. For purposes of notice, the addresses of Beneficiary and Grantor shall be as set forth in Section 1.1(b) and the opening paragraph hereinabove, respectively; provided, however, that either party shall have the right to change its address for notice hereunder to any other location within the continental United States by the giving of thirty (30) days’ notice to the other party in the manner set forth hereinabove.
 
11.6   No Waiver. Any failure by Trustee or Beneficiary to insist, or any election by Trustee or Beneficiary not to insist, upon strict performance by Grantor of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of the Security Documents shall not be deemed to be a waiver of same or of any other terms, provision or condition thereof and Trustee or Beneficiary shall have the right at any time or times thereafter to insist upon strict performance by Grantor of any and all of such terms, provisions and conditions.
 
11.7   Beneficiary’s Right to Perform the Obligations. If Grantor shall fail, refuse or neglect to make any payment or perform any act required by the Security Documents (after

19

 

    giving effect to any applicable notice and cure period), then at any time thereafter, and without further notice to or demand upon Grantor and without waiving or releasing any other right, remedy or recourse Beneficiary may have because of same, Beneficiary may (but shall not be obligated to) make such payment or perform such act for the account of and at the expense of Grantor, and shall have the right to enter upon or in the Real Property for such purpose and to take all such action thereon and with respect to the Mortgaged Property as it may deem necessary or appropriate but in any case subject to the rights of any Lienholder arising under or pursuant to the Senior Liens and the terms and provisions of the SNDA. If Beneficiary shall elect to pay any Imposition or other sums due with reference to the Mortgaged Property, Beneficiary may do so in reliance on any bill, statement or assessment procured from the appropriate Governmental Entity or other issuer thereof without inquiring into the accuracy or validity thereof. Similarly, in making any payments to protect the security intended to be created by the Security Documents, Beneficiary shall not be bound to inquire into the validity of any apparent or threatened adverse title, lien, encumbrance, claim or charge before making an advance for the purpose of preventing or removing the same. Grantor shall indemnify Beneficiary for all losses, expenses, damage, claims and causes of action, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred or accruing by reason of any acts performed by Beneficiary pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.7 or by reason of any other provision in the Security Documents. All sums paid by Beneficiary pursuant to this Section 11.7 and all other sums expended by Beneficiary to which it shall be entitled to be indemnified, together with interest thereon at the maximum rate allowed by law from the date of such payment or expenditure, shall be secured by the Security Documents and shall be paid by Grantor to Beneficiary upon demand.

11.10   Severability. The Security Documents are intended to be performed in accordance with, and only to the extent permitted by, all applicable Legal Requirements. If any provision of any of the Security Documents or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance shall, for any reason and to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable neither the remainder of the instrument in which such provision is contained nor the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances nor the other instruments referred to hereinabove shall be affected thereby, but rather shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law.
 
11.11   Entire Agreement and Modification. The Security Documents contain the entire agreements between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and all prior agreements relative thereto which are not contained herein or therein are terminated. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Grantor and, by its acceptance hereof, Beneficiary hereby acknowledge and agree that in the event that any of the terms or

20

 

    provisions of this Deed of Trust conflict with any terms or provisions of the Pipelines Agreement, the terms or provisions of the Pipelines Agreement shall govern and control for all purposes. The Security Documents may not be amended, revised, waived, discharged, released or terminated orally but only by a written instrument or instruments (a) executed by the party against which enforcement of the amendment, revision, waiver, discharge, release or termination is asserted, and (b) consented to by the Lienholders to the extent any such amendment, revision, waiver, discharge, release or termination would be materially adverse to the rights of any such Lienholder. Any alleged amendment, revision, waiver, discharge, release or termination which is not so documented shall not be effective as to any party.
 
11.12   Counterparts. This Deed of Trust may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute but one instrument.

11.14   No Partnership. Nothing contained in the Security Documents is intended to, or shall be construed as, creating to any extent and in any manner whatsoever, any partnership, joint venture, or association between Grantor, Trustee and Beneficiary, or in any way make Beneficiary or Trustee coprincipals with Grantor with reference to the Mortgaged Property, and any inferences to the contrary are hereby expressly negated.
 
11.15   Headings. The Article, Section and Subsection entitlements hereof are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall in no way alter, modify or define, or be used in construing, the text of such Articles, Sections or Subsections.
 
11.16   Waiver of Stay, Moratorium, and Similar Rights. Grantor agrees, to the full extent that it may lawfully do so, that it will not at any time insist upon or plead or in any way take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, marshalling of assets, extension, redemption or moratorium law now or hereafter in force and effect so as to prevent or hinder the enforcement of the provisions of this Deed of Trust or the indebtedness secured hereby, or any agreement between Grantor and Beneficiary or any rights or remedies Beneficiary may have thereunder, hereunder or by law.
 
11.17   Transfer of Mortgaged Property. No sale, lease, exchange, assignment, conveyance or other transfer (each, a “Transfer”) of the Mortgaged Property will extinguish the lien or security interest created by this Deed of Trust, except to the extent provided in Section 9.6 of this Deed of Trust or in the Pipelines Agreement. As a condition to any Transfer, Beneficiary may (a) require the express assumption of the Obligations by the transferee

21

11.18   Estoppel Certificates.

11.19   Final Agreement. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ acknowledges receipt of a copy of this instrument at the time of execution hereof. Grantor acknowledges that, except as incorporated in writing in this Deed of Trust, there are not, and were not, and no persons are or were authorized to make any representations, understandings, stipulations, agreements or promises, oral or written, with respect to the matters addressed in this Deed of Trust. THE WRITTEN AGREEMENTS HEREIN REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.

Attachment 1-2

 

AGREEMENTS:
     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of Ten Dollars ($10) and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Administrative Agent and ▇▇▇▇▇ hereby covenant and agree as follows:
     1. Subordination of ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage.
          (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 3 and Section 4 hereof, the Subordinated Liens of ▇▇▇▇▇ under the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage and all of the terms, covenants and provisions of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage, and all rights, remedies and options of ▇▇▇▇▇ thereunder, are and shall at all times continue to be subject, subordinate and inferior in all respects to the Senior Loan Documents and any Future Senior Mortgage and to the liens and security interests thereof and to all amendments, modifications, and replacements thereof, with the same force and effect as if the Senior Loan Documents, or if applicable, the Future Senior Mortgage, had been executed, delivered and recorded prior to the execution, delivery and recordation of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage. This Agreement is not intended, and shall not be construed, to (i) subordinate the rights and interests of ▇▇▇▇▇ under the Pipelines Agreement (including ▇▇▇▇▇’s right to quiet enjoyment under the Pipelines Agreement or any claims, remedies or damages that may be due or available to, or become due or available to, ▇▇▇▇▇ under the Pipelines Agreement), or (ii) subordinate the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage to any mortgage, deed of trust, assignment, security agreement, financing statement or other security document, other than, with respect to clause (ii), the Senior Loan Documents and the Future Senior Mortgage. Nothing in this Agreement shall impair, as between HEP, Operating, Grantor or any other Partnership Entity (as defined in the Pipelines Agreement), on the one hand, and ▇▇▇▇▇, on the other hand, the obligations of HEP, Operating, Grantor and any such other Partnership Entity, which are absolute and unconditional, to perform the HEP Obligations in accordance with their terms.
          (b) Notwithstanding anything herein or in the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage to the contrary, ▇▇▇▇▇ hereby acknowledges and agrees, and Grantor by its consent to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees, that (i) in the event that any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement conflict with any terms or provisions of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage, the terms or provisions of this Agreement shall govern and control for all purposes; and (ii) without the written prior consent of the Administrative Agent or the beneficiary of any Future Senior Mortgage (together with the Credit Parties, the “Senior Beneficiaries”), neither ▇▇▇▇▇ nor Grantor (nor any future owner of the Mortgaged Property) will amend, revise, supplement, replace, restate, or otherwise modify the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage if such amendment, revision, supplement, replacement, restatement or other modification would be materially adverse to the rights of any Senior Beneficiary.
     2. Relative Rights and Priorities. Subject to the provisions of Section 1, Section 3 and Section 4 hereof:
          (a) Until the Senior Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, all commitments to extend credit under the Credit Agreement (or if applicable, any agreement governing obligations secured by a Future Senior Mortgage) have terminated, and all letters of credit issued thereunder have been terminated and returned (the “Senior Obligations Payment Date”), ▇▇▇▇▇ will not (i) commence any foreclosure (whether a judicial foreclosure or non-

Attachment 1-3

 

judicial foreclosure) of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage, (ii) accept a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, (iii) otherwise exercise any of its rights or remedies under the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage, or (iv) take any Enforcement Action.
          (b) ▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that, until the Senior Obligations Payment Date has occurred:
               (i) it will not take or cause to be taken any action, the purpose or effect of which is to make any Subordinated Lien pari passu with or senior to, or to give ▇▇▇▇▇ any preference or priority relative to, the liens and security interests with respect to the Senior Secured Obligations;
               (ii) it will not oppose, object to, interfere with, hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by judicial proceedings (including without limitation the filing of an Insolvency Proceeding (as herein defined)) or otherwise, any foreclosure, sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Mortgaged Property (as defined in the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage and with the same meaning herein as therein defined) by any of the Senior Beneficiaries or any other Enforcement Action taken by or on behalf of any of the Senior Beneficiaries;
               (iii) it has no right to (a) direct any of the Senior Beneficiaries to exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to the Mortgaged Property or pursuant to the Senior Loan Documents or any Future Senior Mortgage or (b) consent or object to the exercise by any of the Senior Beneficiaries of any right, remedy or power with respect to the Mortgaged Property or pursuant to the Senior Loan Documents or any Future Senior Mortgage or to the timing or manner in which any such right is exercised or not exercised (or, to the extent they may have any such right described in this clause (iii), whether as a junior lien creditor or otherwise, they hereby irrevocably waive such right);
               (iv) it will not institute any suit or other proceeding or assert in any suit, Insolvency Proceeding or other proceeding any claim against any of the Senior Beneficiaries seeking damages from or other relief by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise, with respect to, and none of the Senior Beneficiaries shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of the Senior Beneficiaries with respect to the Mortgaged Property or pursuant to the Senior Loan Documents or any Future Senior Mortgage; and
               (v) the Senior Beneficiaries shall have the prior right to collect and receive any and all proceeds which may be paid or distributed in respect of the Mortgaged Property in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise arising from any sale or other disposition of the Mortgaged Property.
          (c) Until the Senior Obligations Payment Date has occurred, ▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that it shall not, in, or in connection with, any Insolvency Proceeding, file any pleadings or motions, take any position at any hearing or proceeding of any nature, or otherwise take any action whatsoever, in each case, that is inconsistent with the terms or spirit of, or intent of the parties with respect to, this Agreement, including, without limitation, with respect to the determination of any liens or claims held by any of the Senior Beneficiaries (including the validity and enforceability thereof) or the value of any claims of such parties under the United States Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; provided that ▇▇▇▇▇ may file a proof of claim in an Insolvency

Attachment 1-4

 

Proceeding, subject to the limitations contained in this Agreement and only if consistent with the terms and the limitations imposed hereby; provided further, that if no proof of claim is filed in any Insolvency Proceeding with respect to the HEP Obligations by the 10th day prior to the bar date for such proof of claim, the Senior Beneficiaries may (but shall have no duty or obligation to), after notice to ▇▇▇▇▇, file such proof of claim, provided that the foregoing shall not confer to any Senior Beneficiary the right to vote on behalf of ▇▇▇▇▇ in any insolvency proceeding.
          (d) Until the Senior Obligations Payment Date has occurred, whether or not an Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against the owner of the Mortgaged Property, any of the Senior Beneficiaries shall have the exclusive right to take and continue any Enforcement Action with respect to the Mortgaged Property, without any consultation with or consent of ▇▇▇▇▇. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a default or an event of default under the Senior Loan Documents or any Future Senior Mortgage, any of the Senior Beneficiaries may take and continue any Enforcement Action with respect to the Senior Secured Obligations and the Mortgaged Property in such order and manner as they may determine in their sole discretion.
          (e) To the extent required, ▇▇▇▇▇ hereby consents to the liens and security interests created by the Senior Mortgages and any Future Senior Mortgage, and ▇▇▇▇▇ shall not object to or contest, or support any other person or entity in contesting or objecting to, in any proceeding (including without limitation, any Insolvency Proceeding), the validity, extent, perfection, priority or enforceability of any lien or security interest in the Mortgaged Property granted in favor of any of the Senior Beneficiaries. Notwithstanding any failure by any of the Senior Beneficiaries or ▇▇▇▇▇ or their respective representatives to perfect their liens in the Mortgaged Property or any avoidance, invalidation or subordination by any third party or court of competent jurisdiction of the liens in the Mortgaged Property granted in favor of any of the Senior Beneficiaries or ▇▇▇▇▇, the priority and rights as between any of the Senior Beneficiaries and ▇▇▇▇▇ and its representatives with respect to the Mortgaged Property shall be as set forth herein.
     As used in this Section 2, the following terms shall have the following meanings:
     “Enforcement Action” means any demand for payment or acceleration thereof, the bringing of any lawsuit or other proceeding, the exercise of any rights and remedies, directly or indirectly, with respect to any Mortgaged Property, any enforcement or foreclosure of any lien or security interest, any sale in lieu of foreclosure, the taking of possession, exercise of any offset, repossession, garnishment, sequestration or execution, any collection of any Mortgaged Property, any notice to account debtors on any Mortgaged Property or the commencement or prosecution of enforcement of any of the rights and remedies under the Senior Loan Documents or applicable law, including without limitation the exercise of any rights of set-off or recoupment, and the exercise of any rights or remedies of a secured creditor under the uniform commercial code of any applicable jurisdiction, under the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended from time to time or otherwise; provided, that, neither the exercise or enforcement by ▇▇▇▇▇ of its rights under the Pipelines Agreement, nor the filing of a proof of claim in an Insolvency Proceeding, shall constitute an Enforcement Action.

Attachment 1-5

 

     “Insolvency Proceeding” means any proceeding in respect of bankruptcy, insolvency, winding up, receivership, dissolution or assignment for the benefit of creditors, in each of the foregoing events whether under the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended from time to time or any similar federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership or similar law.
     3. Recognition and Non-Disturbance of ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage. If Administrative Agent, any other Credit Party or any other person (Administrative Agent, any other Credit Party or such other person being herein called a “Purchaser”) shall become the owner of any part of the Property by reason of the foreclosure (whether a judicial foreclosure or non-judicial foreclosure) of a Senior Mortgage or the acceptance of a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise (any of such being herein called a “Foreclosure Event”), then for so long as the Pipelines Agreement is in effect, the Purchaser shall (i) recognize the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage, and the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage shall not be terminated or affected thereby, but shall continue in full force and effect upon all of the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage, and (ii) be bound by and subject to all of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage; provided, that, the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage shall be subordinated to any Future Senior Mortgage, regardless of whether such Future Senior Mortgage is a direct replacement of an existing Senior Mortgage or Security Instrument, and any such Future Senior Mortgage shall be considered a “Senior Mortgage” for purposes of this Agreement and the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage. Administrative Agent shall not claim, or seek adjudication, that the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage has been terminated or otherwise adversely affected by any Foreclosure Event.
     4. Pipelines Agreement. Administrative Agent recognizes and confirms that the Pipelines Agreement, and the rights and interests of ▇▇▇▇▇ thereunder, shall in no way be restricted, limited or otherwise affected by this Agreement, the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage, the Senior Mortgages, any Future Senior Mortgage, the Security Instruments or any liens or security interests thereof; provided, however, that, ▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that nothing in the Pipelines Agreement shall (a) prevent any Purchaser or subsequent purchaser from owning or operating the Mortgaged Property, so long as such Purchaser or subsequent purchaser shall have assumed, and be in compliance with, the Partnership Entities’ (as defined in the Pipelines Agreement) obligations under the Pipelines Agreement and shall have executed an “SNDA” as defined in, and in accordance with, Article 6 of the ▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage, or (b) be deemed to invalidate or require the release of any Senior Beneficiary’s liens in the Mortgaged Property in connection with the exercise by ▇▇▇▇▇ of a purchase option under the Pipelines Agreement or otherwise. ▇▇▇▇▇ shall not amend, modify or supplement the Pipelines Agreement without the prior written consent of the Majority Banks (as defined in the Credit Agreement); provided, that, such amendments, modifications or supplements may be made without the consent of the Majority Banks if such amendments, modifications or supplements (i) individually or in the aggregate, are not materially adverse to the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Financial Institutions, and (ii) individually or in the aggregate, do not materially decrease the economic benefit that Operating would have otherwise received pursuant to such agreement. Administrative Agent, both for itself and for any Purchaser, further agrees that upon any Foreclosure Event, the Pipelines Agreement shall not be terminated or affected thereby, nor shall Holly’s right to ship or store petroleum products through the pipelines or in the terminals, respectively, constituting a portion of the Property in accordance with the provisions of the Pipelines Agreement (or any other rights of ▇▇▇▇▇ under the Pipelines Agreement) be affected or disturbed because of the Foreclosure

Attachment 1-6

 

Event, but rather the Pipelines Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as direct obligations between the Purchaser and ▇▇▇▇▇, upon all of the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the Pipelines Agreement. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Purchaser shall claim, or seek adjudication, that the Pipelines Agreement has been terminated or otherwise adversely affected by any Foreclosure Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Pipelines Agreement is rejected in bankruptcy or is otherwise terminated, the Purchaser shall, promptly upon request by ▇▇▇▇▇, enter into a Pipelines Agreement with ▇▇▇▇▇ on substantially the same terms (and with tariffs and minimum volumes commensurate with those then applicable under the Pipelines Agreement) and conditions as the rejected or terminated Pipelines Agreement, but having a term commencing on the date on which Purchaser acquired title to any portion of the Property. The immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a covenant running with the land and shall be binding on any person or entity that acquires title to all or party of the Property by, through or under a Senior Mortgage.
     5. Attornment With Respect to the Pipelines Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any Foreclosure Event, ▇▇▇▇▇ shall attorn to the Purchaser, the Purchaser shall accept such attornment, and the Purchaser and ▇▇▇▇▇ shall be bound to each other under all of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of the Pipelines Agreement; provided, that, except for ▇▇▇▇▇’s express rights and remedies under the Pipelines Agreement, in no event shall the Purchaser be liable for any act, omission, default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty of HEP, Grantor or any other Partnership Entity (as defined in the Pipelines Agreement) (or any owner of the Mortgaged Property prior to such Purchaser) or obligations accruing prior to Purchaser’s actual ownership of the Property. The provisions of this Agreement regarding attornment by ▇▇▇▇▇ shall be self-operative and effective without the necessity of execution of any new document on the part of any party hereto or the respective heirs, legal representatives, successors or assigns of any such party. ▇▇▇▇▇ agrees, however, to execute and deliver upon the request of Purchaser, any instrument or certificate which in the reasonable judgment of Purchaser may be necessary or appropriate to evidence such attornment.
     6. Estoppel Certificate. ▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to execute and deliver from time to time, upon the request of any of the Senior Beneficiaries, a certificate regarding the status of the Pipelines Agreement, consisting of statements, if true (or if not, specifying why not), (a) that the Pipelines Agreement is in full force and effect, (b) the date through which payments have been paid, (c) the date of the commencement of the term of the Pipelines Agreement, (d) the nature of any amendments or modifications of the Pipelines Agreement, (e) to ▇▇▇▇▇’s actual knowledge without investigation, no default, or state of facts which with the passage of time or notice (or both) would constitute a default, exists under the Pipelines Agreement, (f) to ▇▇▇▇▇’s actual knowledge without investigation, no setoffs, recoupments, estoppels, claims or counterclaims exist against HEP or any other Partnership Entity (as defined in the Pipelines Agreement) under the Pipelines Agreement, and (g) such other factual matters as may be reasonably requested.
     7. [Intentionally Omitted].
     8. Reliance on Notices. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that ▇▇▇▇▇ may rely upon any and all notices from Administrative Agent or any Purchaser, even if such conflict with notices from Grantor.

Attachment 1-7

 

     9. Notices. All notices, consents and other communications pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be sent by (a) registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, (b) nationally recognized overnight delivery service, or (c) telecopier, addressed as follows:
