5. STORAGE SERVICES FEE
(a) Storage Services Fee. TRMC shall pay a Monthly fee (the “Storage Services Fee”) to reserve, on a firm basis, all of the existing aggregate Shell Capacity of all of the Tanks in the Storage Facilities. Such fee shall include all storage, pumping, and transshipment between and among the Tanks. Such fee shall be payable by TRMC on a Monthly basis throughout the Term of the Agreement, regardless of the actual volumes of Products stored by TLO on behalf of TRMC; provided, however, that the Parties shall from time to time negotiate an appropriate adjustment to such fee if the following conditions are met: (i) TRMC requires the full Operating Capacity of the Tanks, (ii) the full Operating Capacity of the Tanks is not available to TRMC for any reason (other than any reason resulting from or relating to actions or inactions by TRMC), and (iii) TLO is unable to otherwise accommodate the actual volumes of Products required to be stored by TRMC pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed, such adjustment shall be made in proportion to the reduction in Operating Capacity for any time period compared with the Operating Capacity then in effect for the affected Tank or Tanks pursuant to the mutually agreed Terminal Service Orders. (For example, if the Storage Services Fee applicable to the Shell Capacity of the affected Tank is $0.80 per Barrel per month x 345,000 Barrels = $276,000, and if the Operating Capacity in the then-applicable Terminal Service Order is 301,000 Barrels, and if the Operating Capacity falls 10% to 270,900, then TRMC’s Storage Services Fee for the affected Tank during the period in which the full Operating Capacity of such Tank is not available to TRMC for any reason (other than any reason resulting from or relating to actions or inactions by TRMC) would be reduced by 10% to $248,400.) Prior to the calculation of a reduced Storage Services Fee in the manner set forth above, there shall have been at least a consecutive twenty-four (24) hour interruption in service. The Parties recognize that the existing Operating Capacity of certain Tanks is less than the Shell Capacity of such Tanks, but the Parties acknowledge and agree that the Storage Services Fee shall be set in terms of a dollar-per-Barrel per Month rate based on Shell Capacity in the applicable Terminal Service Order.
(b) Rate and Fee. The Storage Services Fee shall be calculated using the per Barrel rate set forth on the Terminal Service Orders executed effective as of the Commencement Date for the then-existing aggregate Shell Capacity of all of the Tanks in the Storage Facilities. The Storage Services Fee owed during the Month in which the Commencement Date occurs, if less than a full calendar Month, shall be prorated in accordance with the ratio of (i) the number of days in such Month during which this Agreement is effective to (ii) the total number of days in such Month.
6. TERMINAL SERVICE ORDERS
(a) Description. TLO and TRMC shall enter into the Terminal Service Orders referred to in Section 5(b) and may enter into additional terminal service orders substantially in the form attached hereto as Schedule A (each, a “Terminal Service Order”). Upon a request by TRMC pursuant to this Agreement or as deemed necessary or appropriate by TLO in connection with the services to be delivered pursuant hereto, TLO shall generate a Terminal Service Order to set forth the specific terms and conditions for providing the applicable services described therein and the applicable fees to be charged for such services. No Terminal Service Order shall be effective until fully executed by both TLO and TRMC.
(b) Included Items. Items available for inclusion on a Terminal Service Order include, but are not limited to, the following:
(i) the Operating Capacity and Shell Capacity of each Tank;
(ii) the Storage Services Fee pursuant to Section 5;
(iii) any reimbursement pursuant to Section 8(a);
(iv) any Surcharge pursuant to Section 8(b);
(v) any modification, cleaning, or conversion of a Tank as requested by TRMC pursuant to Section 9(a);
(vi) any reimbursement related to newly imposed taxes and regulations pursuant to Section 10; and
(vii) any other services that may be agreed upon by the Parties.
(c) Fee Increases. Any fees of a fixed amount set forth in this Agreement and any Terminal Service Order shall be increased on January 1 of each year of the Term, commencing on January 1, 2015, by a percentage equal to the positive change, if any, in the CPI-U (All Urban Consumers) during the first twelve (12) Month period beginning fifteen (15) Months preceding such January 1, as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
(d) Conflicts. In case of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Terminal Service Order, the terms of the applicable Terminal Service Order shall govern.
7. CAPABILITIES OF FACILITIES
(a) Maintenance and Repair. Subject to Force Majeure and interruptions for routine repair and maintenance, consistent with customary terminal industry standards, TLO shall maintain each Tank and the Pipelines in a condition and with a capacity sufficient to store and handle a volume of TRMC’s Products at least equal to the current Operating Capacity for the Storage Facilities as a whole. TLO’s obligations may be temporarily suspended during the occurrence of, and for the entire duration of, a Force Majeure or other interruption of service, to the extent such Force Majeure or other interruption of service impairs TLO’s ability to perform such obligations. If for any reason, including, without limitation, a Force Majeure event, the condition of any Tanks and/or associated Pipelines are below the level necessary for TLO to store and handle a volume of TRMC’s Products at least equal to the current Operating Capacity, then within a reasonable period of time thereafter, TLO shall make repairs to restore the capacity of such Tank and/or associated Pipeline(s) to ensure service at the current Operating Capacity (“Restoration”). Except as provided below in Section 7(b), all of such Restoration shall be at TLO’s cost and expense unless the damage creating the need for such repairs was caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of TRMC, its employees, agents or customers.
(b) Capacity Resolution. In the event of the failure of TLO to maintain any Pipeline or Tank in a condition and with a capacity sufficient to store and handle a volume of TRMC’s Products equal to its current Operating 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 (as defined below). At the meeting, the Parties will negotiate in good faith with the objective of reaching a joint resolution for the Restoration of capacity of the Tank and/or its associated Pipeline(s) which will, among other things, specify steps to be taken by TLO 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 TLO’s economic considerations relating to costs of the repairs and TRMC’s requirements concerning its refining and marketing operations. TLO shall use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to provide storage of TRMC’s Products at the applicable Storage Facility, to the extent the Storage Facility has the capability of doing so, during the period before Restoration is completed. In the event that TRMC’s economic considerations justify incurring additional costs to restore the Tank and/or associated Pipeline(s) in a more expedited manner than the time schedule determined in accordance with the preceding sentences, TRMC may require TLO to expedite the Restoration to the extent reasonably possible, subject to TRMC’s payment upon the occurrence of mutually agreed upon milestones in the Restoration process. In the event that the Operating Capacity of a Tank is reduced, and the Parties agree that the Restoration of such Tank to its full Operating Capacity is not justified under the standards set forth in the preceding sentences, then the Parties shall negotiate an appropriate adjustment to the Storage Services Fee to account for the reduced Operating Capacity available for TRMC’s use. In the event the Parties agree to an expedited Restoration plan in which TRMC agrees to pay the Restoration costs based on milestone payments or if the Parties agree to a reduced Storage Services Fee, then neither Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement or any applicable Terminal Service Order pursuant to Section 23 below, so long as any such Restoration is completed with due diligence.
(c) TRMC’s Right To Cure. If at any time after the occurrence of (x) a Partnership Change of Control or (y) a sale of the Refinery, TLO either (i) refuses or fails to meet with TRMC within the period set forth in Section 7(b), (ii) fails to agree to perform a Capacity Resolution in accordance with the standards set forth in Section 7(b), or (iii) fails to perform its obligations in compliance with the terms of a Capacity Resolution, TRMC may, as its sole remedy for any breach by TLO of any of its obligations under Section 7(b), require TLO to complete a Restoration of the affected Pipeline or Tank, and the Storage Services Fee shall be reduced, as described in Section 7(b) above, to account for the reduced Operating Capacity available for TRMC’s use until such Restoration is completed. Any such Restoration required under this Section 7(c) shall be completed by TLO at TRMC’s cost. TLO shall use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to provide storage and throughput of TRMC’s Products at the affected Tank or Pipeline while such Restoration is being completed. Any work performed by TLO pursuant to this Section 7(c) shall be performed and completed in a good and workmanlike manner consistent with applicable pipeline industry standards and in accordance with Applicable Law. Additionally, during such period after the occurrence of (x) a Partnership Change of Control or (y) a sale of the Refinery, TRMC may exercise any remedies available to it under this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order (other than termination), including the right to immediately seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief for specific performance by TLO of the applicable provisions of this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order, including, without limitation, the obligation to make Restorations as described herein.
8. REIMBURSEMENT; SURCHARGES
(a) Reimbursement. TRMC shall reimburse TLO for all of the following: (i) the actual cost of any expenditures that TLO agrees to make upon TRMC’s request, and (ii) any cleaning, degassing or other preparation of the Tanks at the expiration of this Agreement.
(b) Surcharges.
(i) If, during the Term, any existing laws or regulations are changed or any new laws or regulations are enacted that require TLO to make substantial and unanticipated expenditures (whether capitalized or otherwise) with respect to a Storage Facility or with respect to the services provided hereunder, TLO may, subject to the terms of this Section 8(b), impose a surcharge to increase the applicable service fee (a “Surcharge”) to cover TRMC’s pro rata share of the cost of complying with these laws or regulations, based upon the percentage of TRMC’s use of the services or facilities impacted by such new laws or regulations.
(ii) TLO shall notify TRMC of any proposed Surcharge to be imposed pursuant to Section 8(b)(i) sufficient to cover the cost of any required capital projects and any ongoing increased operating costs. TLO and TRMC then shall negotiate in good faith for up to thirty (30) days to mutually determine the effect of the change in law or regulation or new law or regulation, the cost thereof, and how such cost shall be amortized at an interest rate of no more than nine percent (9%) as a Surcharge, with the understanding that TLO and TRMC shall use their reasonable commercial efforts to mitigate the impact of, and comply with, these laws and regulations. Without limiting the foregoing, if expenditures requiring a Surcharge may be avoided or reduced through changes in operations, then the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to set forth the appropriate changes to Operating Capacities or other performance standards set forth in a Terminal Service Order to evidence the reduction of the amount of a Surcharge while leaving the Parties in the same relative economic position they held before the laws or regulations were changed or enacted.
(iii) In the event any Surcharge results in less than a fifteen percent (15%) increase in the applicable service fee, TRMC will be assessed such Surcharge on all future invoices during the period in which such Surcharge is in effect for the applicable amortization period, and TLO shall not terminate the affected service from this Agreement.
(iv) In the event any Surcharge results in a fifteen percent (15%) or more increase in the applicable service fee, TLO shall notify TRMC of the amount of the Monthly Surcharge required to reimburse TLO for its costs, plus carrying costs, together with reasonable supporting detail for the nature and amount of any such Surcharge.
(A) If within thirty (30) days of such notification provided in Section 8(b)(iv), TRMC does not agree to pay such Surcharge or to reimburse TLO up front for its costs, TLO may elect to either:
(1) require TRMC to pay such Surcharge, up to a fifteen (15%) increase in the applicable service fee; or
(2) terminate the Tank(s) or other facilities from this Agreement upon notice to TRMC.
(B) TLO’s performance obligations under this Agreement shall be suspended or reduced during the above thirty (30)-day period to the extent that TLO would be obligated to make such expenditures to continue performance during such period.
(v) In lieu of paying the Surcharge, TRMC may, at its option, elect to pay the full cost of the substantial and unanticipated expenditures upon completion of a project.
9. TANK MODIFICATION AND CLEANING; REMOVAL OF PRODUCT
(a) Tank Modifications. Each of the Tanks shall be used for its historical service, provided however, that TRMC may request that a Tank be changed for storage of a different grade or type of Product. In such an instance, TLO shall agree in good faith to a change in such service, if the same can be accomplished in accordance with reasonable commercial standards, accepted industry and engineering guidelines, permit requirements and Applicable Law. If any such modifications, improvements, vapor recovery, cleaning, degassing, or other preparation of the Tanks is performed by TLO at the request of TRMC, TRMC shall bear all direct costs attributable thereto, including, without limitation, the cost of removal, processing, transportation, and disposal of all waste and the cost of any taxes or mutually agreed charges TLO may be required to pay in regard to such waste (subject to subparagraph (c) below), which costs shall be set forth on the applicable Terminal Service Order. TLO may require TRMC to pay all such amounts prior to commencement of any remodeling work on the Tanks, or by mutual agreement, the Parties may agree upon an increase in the Storage Services Fee to reimburse TLO for its costs of such modifications, plus a reasonable return on capital. All of such costs associated with Tank modifications shall be documented by a Terminal Service Order to be executed by the Parties.
(b) Responsibility for Fees. Should TLO take any of the Tanks out of service for regulatory requirements, repair, or maintenance, TRMC shall be solely responsible for any alternative storage or Product movements as required and all third-party fees associated with such movements that are not within a Storage Facility; provided that TLO shall not be reimbursed for any costs of transportation through TLO’s facilities that it might be entitled to collect under any tariff or agreement with TRMC. Unless any Tank is removed specifically at TRMC’s request, TRMC shall not be responsible to TLO for any Storage Services Fees for any Tanks taken out of service during the period that such Tank is out of service.
(c) Removal of Product. Materials stored in or removed from any Storage Facility shall at all times remain owned by TRMC or any applicable Replacement Customer, and the owner of the Product shall always remain responsible for, at the owner’s sole cost, receiving custody of all of its materials to be removed from such Storage Facility, making appropriate arrangements to receive custody at such Storage Facility in a manner acceptable to TLO, and disposal of such material after custody is returned to the owner.

TLO further agrees to furnish documents reasonably acceptable to TRMC and its lender(s) (if applicable), and to cooperate with TRMC in assuring and demonstrating that Product titled in TRMC’s name shall not be subject to any lien on the Storage Facilities or TLO’s Product stored there.
17. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW AND GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS
(a) Compliance With Law.

Each Party shall be responsible for compliance with all Applicable Laws associated with such Party’s respective performance hereunder and the operation of such Party’s facilities. In the event any action or obligation imposed upon a Party under this Agreement and any Terminal Service Order shall at any time be in conflict with any requirement of Applicable Law, then this Agreement and any Terminal Service Order, shall immediately be modified to conform the action or obligation so adversely affected to the requirements of the Applicable Law, and all other provisions of this Agreement and any Terminal Service Order shall remain effective.
(d) New Or Changed Applicable Law. If during the Term, any new Applicable Law becomes effective or any existing Applicable Law or its interpretation is materially changed, which change is not addressed by another provision of this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order and which has a material adverse economic impact upon a Party, then either Party, acting in good faith, shall have the option to request renegotiation of the relevant provisions of this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order with respect to future performance. The Parties shall then meet and negotiate in good faith amendments to this Agreement or to an applicable Terminal Service Order that will conform to the new Applicable Law while preserving the Parties’ economic, operational, commercial and competitive arrangements in accordance with the understandings set forth herein.
18. LIMITATION ON LIABILITY; WARRANTIES
(a) No Special Damages. IN NO EVENT SHALL A PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY LOST PROFITS OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, NO MATTER HOW CHARACTERIZED, RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ARISING FROM ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER, EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ACTUALLY AWARDED TO A THIRD PARTY OR ASSESSED BY A GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY AND FOR WHICH A PARTY IS PROPERLY ENTITLED TO INDEMNIFICATION FROM THE OTHER PARTY PURSUANT TO THE EXPRESS PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

(c) No Guarantees or Warranties. Except as expressly provided in the Agreement, neither TRMC nor TLO makes any guarantees or warranties of any kind, expressed or implied. TLO specifically disclaims all implied warranties of any kind or nature, including any implied warranty of merchantability and/or any implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose.

(d) No Limitation. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, the scope of these indemnity provisions may not be altered, restricted, limited, or changed by any other provision of this Agreement. The indemnity obligations of the Parties as set out in this Section 19 are independent of any insurance requirements as set out in Section 26, and such indemnity obligations shall not be lessened or extinguished by reason of a Party’s failure to obtain the required insurance coverages or by any defenses asserted by a Party’s insurers.
(e) Survival. These indemnity obligations shall survive the termination of this Agreement until all applicable statutes of limitation have run regarding any claims that could be made with respect to the activities contemplated by this Agreement.
(f) Mutual and Express Acknowledgement. THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS PROVIDED FOR IN THIS AGREEMENT HAVE BEEN EXPRESSLY NEGOTIATED IN EVERY DETAIL, ARE INTENDED TO BE GIVEN FULL AND LITERAL EFFECT, AND SHALL BE APPLICABLE WHETHER OR NOT THE LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, CLAIMS, JUDGMENTS, LOSSES, COSTS, EXPENSES OR DAMAGES IN QUESTION ARISE OR AROSE SOLELY OR IN PART FROM THE GROSS, ACTIVE, PASSIVE OR CONCURRENT NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHER FAULT OF ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS STATEMENT COMPLIES WITH THE EXPRESS NEGLIGENCE RULE AND CONSTITUTES CONSPICUOUS NOTICE. NOTICE IN THIS CONSPICUOUS NOTICE IS NOT INTENDED TO PROVIDE OR ALTER THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES, ALL OF WHICH ARE SPECIFIED ELSEWHERE IN THIS AGREEMENT.
(g) Third Party Indemnification. If any Party has the rights to indemnification from a third party, the indemnifying party under this Agreement shall have the right of subrogation with respect to any amounts received from such third-party indemnification claim.
20. TERMINATION; RIGHT TO ENTER INTO A NEW AGREEMENT
(a) Termination for Default. A Party shall be in default under this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order if:
(i) the Party breaches any provision of this Agreement, a Terminal Service Order or any of the Related Agreements (but with respect to the SoCal Transportation Services Agreement, only with respect to the pipelines that transport Product to and from marine terminals), which breach has a material adverse effect on the other Party (with such material adverse effect being determined based on this Agreement and all Terminal Service Orders considered as a whole), and such breach is not excused by Force Majeure or cured within fifteen (15) Business Days after notice thereof (which notice shall describe such breach in reasonable detail) is received by such Party (unless such failure is not commercially reasonably capable of being cured in such fifteen (15) Business Day Period in which case such Party shall have commenced remedial action to cure such breach and shall continue to diligently and timely pursue the completion of such remedial action after such notice); or
(ii) the Party (A) 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, (B) makes an assignment or any general arrangement for the benefit of creditors, (C) otherwise becomes bankrupt or insolvent (however evidenced) or (D) has a liquidator, administrator, receiver, trustee, conservator or similar official appointed with respect to it or any substantial portion of its property or assets.
If either Party is in default as described above, then (i) if TRMC is in default, TLO may or (ii) if TLO is in default, TRMC may: (A) terminate this Agreement and all applicable Terminal Service Orders upon notice to the defaulting Party; (B) withhold any payments due to the defaulting Party under this Agreement and the Terminal Service Orders; and/or (C) pursue any other remedy at law or in equity.
(b) Termination of a Lease or Sublease. Upon the termination or cancellation of the Terminal 2 Port Lease, the Terminal 2 Sublease Agreement, or the Terminals 2 and Terminal 3 Ground Lease (with respect to Terminal 2 and/or Terminal 3, as the case may be) for any reason other than renewal and/or amendment, this Agreement shall immediately terminate as to the applicable Storage Facility without penalty to either Party.
(c) Obligation to Cure. If a Party breaches any provision of this Agreement, a Terminal Services Order or a Related Agreement, which breach does not have a material adverse effect on the other Party, the breaching Party shall still have the obligation to cure such breach.
(d) Obligations at Termination. Unless otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties, within thirty (30) days of the termination or expiration of this Agreement, (i) TRMC shall promptly remove all of its removable Products from the Storage Facilities and (ii) TLO shall remove the remaining Tank Heels and tank bottoms and deliver them to TRMC or TRMC’s designee. In the event all of the Product is not removed within such thirty (30) day period, TRMC shall be assessed a holdover storage fee, calculated on the same basis as the Storage Services Fee, to all Products held in storage more than thirty (30) days beyond the termination or expiration of this Agreement until such time TRMC’s entire Product is removed from the Tanks and the Storage Facilities; provided, however, that TRMC shall not be assessed any storage fees associated with the removal of Product to the extent that TRMC’s ability to remove such Product is delayed or hindered by TLO, its agents, or contractors for any reason.
21. RIGHT TO ENTER INTO A NEW STORAGE AGREEMENT
(a) Right to Enter New Agreement. Upon termination of this Agreement for reasons other than (x) a default by TRMC and (y) any other termination of this Agreement initiated by TRMC pursuant to Section 20, TRMC shall have the right to require TLO to enter into a new storage services agreement (with ancillary Terminal Service Orders, as appropriate) with TRMC that (i) is consistent with the terms set forth in this Agreement and Terminal Service Orders in effect at the time of such termination, (ii) relates to the same Storage Facilities and the Tanks that are the subject matter of this Agreement and applicable Terminal Service Orders, and (iii) has commercial terms that are, in the aggregate, equal to or more favorable to TLO than fair market value terms as would be agreed by similarly-situated parties negotiating at arm’s length; provided, however, that the term of any such new storage services agreement shall not extend beyond December 5, 2033.
(b) New Agreement; Right of First Refusal. In the event that TLO proposes to enter into a storage services agreement with a third party within two (2) years after the termination of this Agreement for reasons other than (x) by default by TRMC and (y) any other termination of this Agreement initiated by TRMC pursuant to Section 20, TLO shall give TRMC ninety (90) days’ prior written notice of any proposed new storage services agreement with a third party, including (i) details of all of the material terms and conditions thereof and (ii) a thirty (30)-day period (beginning upon TRMC’s receipt of such written notice) (the “First Offer Period”) in which TRMC may make a good faith offer to enter into a new storage services agreement with TLO (the “Right of First Refusal”). If TRMC makes an offer on terms no less favorable to TLO than the third-party offer with respect to such storage services agreement during the First Offer Period, then TLO shall be obligated to enter into a storage services agreement with TRMC on the terms set forth in subsection (a) above. If TRMC does not exercise its Right of First Refusal in the manner set forth above, TLO may, for the next ninety (90) days, proceed with the negotiation of the third-party storage services agreement. If no third party agreement is consummated during such ninety-day period, the terms and conditions of this Section 21(b) shall again become effective.
22. FORCE MAJEURE
(a) Force Majeure Notice. As soon as possible upon the occurrence of a Force Majeure, TLO shall provide TRMC with written notice of the occurrence of such Force Majeure (a “Force Majeure Notice”). TLO shall identify in such Force Majeure Notice the approximate length of time that TLO reasonably believes in good faith such Force Majeure shall continue (the “Force Majeure Period”). For the duration of the Force Majeure Period, the Storage Services Fee shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Shell Capacity for each affected Tank, provided that if TRMC is able to continue to store Product in a Tank during the Force Majeure Period, but at a reduced Operating Capacity, the Storage Services Fee shall be reduced in proportion to the amount the effective Operating Capacity is reduced. If TLO 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, then, subject to Section 7 above, at any time after TLO delivers such Force Majeure Notice, either Party may terminate that portion of this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order solely with respect to the affected Tank(s) at the applicable Storage Facility, but only upon delivery to the other Party of a notice (a “Termination Notice”) at least twelve (12) Months prior to the expiration of the Force Majeure Period; provided, however; that such Termination Notice shall be deemed cancelled and of no effect if the Force Majeure Period ends prior to the expiration of such twelve-Month period. For the avoidance of doubt, neither Party may exercise its right under this Section 22(a) to terminate this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order as a result of a Force Majeure with respect to any machinery, storage, tanks, lines of pipe or other equipment that has been unaffected by, or has been restored to working order since, the applicable Force Majeure, including pursuant to a Restoration under Section 7.
(b) Termination Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if TRMC delivers a Termination Notice to TLO (the “TRMC Termination Notice”) and, within thirty (30) days after receiving such TRMC Termination Notice, TLO notifies TRMC that TLO reasonably believes in good faith that it shall be capable of fully performing its obligations under this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order within a reasonable period of time and TRMC mutually agrees, which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld, then the TRMC Termination Notice shall be deemed revoked and the applicable portion of this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order shall continue in full force and effect as if such TRMC Termination Notice had never been given.
23. SUSPENSION OF REFINERY OPERATIONS
This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect regardless of whether TRMC decides to permanently or temporarily suspend refining operations at the Refinery. TRMC is not permitted to suspend or reduce its obligations under this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order in connection with a shutdown of the Refinery for scheduled turnarounds or other regular servicing or maintenance. If refining operations at the Refinery are suspended for any reason (including Refinery turnarounds and other scheduled maintenance), then TRMC shall remain liable for Storage Services Fees under this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order for the duration of the suspension. TRMC 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.
24. ASSIGNMENT; SUBCONTRACT; PARTNERSHIP CHANGE OF CONTROL
(a) Assignment to TLO. On the Commencement Date, the General Partner shall assign all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to the Partnership. The Partnership shall immediately assign its rights and obligations hereunder to TLO. Upon such assignment to TLO, TLO shall have all of the respective rights and obligations set forth herein during the Term of this Agreement.
(b) TRMC Assignment to Third Party. TRMC shall not assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without TLO’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that TRMC may assign this Agreement without TLO’s consent in connection with a sale by TRMC of the Refinery so long as the transferee: (i) agrees to assume all of TRMC’s obligations under this Agreement and (ii) is financially and operationally capable of fulfilling the terms of this Agreement, which determination shall be made by TRMC in its reasonable judgment.
(c) Subcontract. Should TRMC desire to subcontract to a third party (“Replacement Customer”) any dedicated storage subject to a Terminal Service Order, TRMC must notify TLO in writing prior to the proposed start of the subcontract. TLO has the right to approve any Replacement Customer with such approval being conditioned only upon reasonable commercial standards. Unless otherwise agreed in writing between TRMC and TLO, and between Replacement Customer and TLO, TRMC will continue to be liable for all terms and conditions of this Agreement related to any subcontracted Tank, including, but not limited to, remittance of any fees set forth in a Terminal Service Order applicable to the subcontracted Tank. TRMC shall be responsible for collection of any fees due to TRMC from the Replacement Customer. TRMC and TLO may mutually agree that operational notices concerning scheduling and similar matters can be directly provided between TLO and any Replacement Customer.
(d) TLO Assignment. TLO shall not assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without TRMC’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that (i) TLO may assign this Agreement without TRMC’s consent in connection with a sale by TLO of the Storage Facilities so long as the transferee: (A) agrees to assume all of TLO’s obligations under this Agreement; (B) is financially and operationally capable of fulfilling the terms of this Agreement, which determination shall be made by TLO in its reasonable judgment; and (C) is not a competitor of TRMC; and (ii) TLO shall be permitted to make a collateral assignment of this Agreement solely to secure working capital financing for TLO.
(e) Notification of Assignment. 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. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
(f) Partnership Change of Control. TRMC’s obligations hereunder shall not terminate in connection with a Partnership Change of Control, provided, however, that in the case of any Partnership Change of Control, TRMC shall have the option to extend the Term of this Agreement as provided in Section 4. TLO shall provide TRMC with notice of any Partnership Change of Control at least sixty (60) days prior to the effective date thereof.
25. ACCOUNTING PROVISIONS AND DOCUMENTATION; AUDIT
(a) Storage Services Fee Documentation. Within ten (10) Business Days following the end of each Month, TLO shall furnish TRMC with a statement showing, by Tank, a calculation of all of TRMC’s Monthly Storage Services Fees. TLO shall furnish all appropriate documentation to support the calculation of all fees, and, to the extent reasonably available, to document movement of Products through the Storage Facilities.
(b) Access. Each Party and its duly authorized agents and/or representatives shall have reasonable access to the accounting records and other documents maintained by the other Party which relate to this Agreement, and shall have the right to audit such records at any reasonable time or times during the Term and for a period of up to three years after termination of this Agreement. Claims as to shortage in quantity or defects in quality shall be made by written notice within ninety (90) days after the delivery in question or shall be deemed to have been waived.

Such insurance shall provide coverage to TLO and such policies, other than Worker’s Compensation Insurance, shall include TLO as an Additional Insured.

28. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
(a) Obligations. Each Party shall use reasonable efforts to retain the other Parties’ 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 28. 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. Excepted from these obligations of confidence and non-use is that information which:
(i) is available, or become available, to the general public without fault of the receiving Party;
(ii) was in the possession of the receiving Party on a non-confidential basis prior to receipt of the same from the disclosing Party;
(iii) is obtained by the receiving Party without an obligation of confidence from a third party who is rightfully in possession of such information and, to the receiving Party’s knowledge, is under no obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing Party; or
(iv) is independently developed by the receiving Party without reference to or use of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.
For the purpose of this Section 28, a specific item of Confidential Information shall not be deemed to be within the foregoing exceptions merely because it is embraced by, or underlies, more general information in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party.
(b) Required Disclosure. Notwithstanding Section 28(a) above, if the receiving Party becomes legally compelled to disclose the Confidential Information by a court, Governmental Authority or Applicable Law, or is required to disclose by the listing standards of any applicable securities exchange 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.
(c) 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 or destroyed with destruction certified by the receiving Party upon termination of this Agreement, 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 28, and such archived or back-up Confidential Information shall not be accessed except as required by Applicable Law.
(d) 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 or any Terminal Service Order (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.
(e) Survival. The obligation of confidentiality under this Section 28 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of two (2) years.

(b) Integration. This Agreement, together with the Schedules and Terminal Service Orders and the other agreements executed on the date hereof in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Tranche 2 Contribution 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. In the event of a conflict of provisions of this Agreement and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Asset Indemnity Agreement dated as of the date hereof by and among Partnership, General Partner, TRMC, TLO, and Tesoro Corporation (“▇▇▇▇▇▇ Asset Indemnity Agreement”), the provisions of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Asset Indemnity Agreement shall prevail with respect to issues related to the contribution of the assets described therein, but not with respect to the ordinary operations of such assets as set forth in this Agreement.
(c) Construction and Interpretation. In interpreting this Agreement, unless the context expressly requires otherwise, all of the following apply to the interpretation of this Agreement:
(i) Preparation of this Agreement has been a joint effort of the Parties and the resulting Agreement against one of the Parties as the drafting Party.
(ii) Plural and singular words each include the other.
(iii) Masculine, feminine and neutral genders each include the others.
(iv) The word “or” is not exclusive and includes “and/or.”
(v) The words “includes” and “including” are not limiting.
(vi) References to the Parties include their respective successors and permitted assignees.
(vii) The headings in this Agreement are included for convenience and do not affect the construction or interpretation of any provision of, or the rights or obligations of a Party under, this Agreement.
(d) Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement and any Terminal Service Order shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas without giving effect to its conflict of laws principles. Each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal court of competent jurisdiction situated in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas, San Antonio Division, or if such federal court declines to exercise or does not have jurisdiction, in the district court of Bexar County, Texas. The Parties expressly and irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of said Courts and irrevocably waive any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order brought in such Courts, irrevocably waive any claim that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such Court has been brought in an inconvenient forum and further irrevocably waive the right to object, with respect to such claim, action, suit or proceeding brought in any such Court, that such Court does not have jurisdiction over such Party. The Parties hereby irrevocably consent to the service of process by registered mail, postage prepaid, or by personal service within or without the State of Texas. Nothing contained herein shall affect the right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.
(e) Counterparts. This Agreement and any Terminal Service Order 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.
(f) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement and any Terminal Service Order will be interpreted in such manner as to be valid and effective under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order 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.
(g) No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as specifically provided herein, including as set forth in Section 19, it is expressly understood that the provisions of this Agreement and any Terminal Service Order do not impart enforceable rights in anyone who is not a Party or successor or permitted assignee of a Party.
(h) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDINGS RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY PURCHASE ORDER OR ANY PERFORMANCE OR FAILURE TO PERFORM OF ANY OBLIGATION HEREUNDER.
(i) Schedules and Terminal Service Orders(s). Each of the Schedules and Terminal Service Order(s) attached hereto and referred to herein is hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein.
