Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Contribution Agreement

On February 15, 2017, PBF Logistics LP (the “Partnership”), a consolidated subsidiary of PBF Energy Inc. (“PBF Energy”), entered into a Contribution Agreement with PBF Energy Company LLC (“PBF LLC”), a subsidiary of PBF Energy. Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, PBF LLC has agreed to contribute to the Partnership all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company interests of Paulsboro Natural Gas Pipeline Company LLC (“PNGPC”). PNGPC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PBF Holding Company LLC (“PBF Holding”) and owns and operates an existing interstate natural gas pipeline that originates in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, at an interconnection with Texas Eastern pipeline that runs under the Delaware River and terminates at the delivery point to PBF Holding's Paulsboro, Gloucester County, New Jersey, and is subject to regulation by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”). PNGPC has FERC approval for, and is in the process of constructing, a new 24” pipeline (the “New Pipeline”) to replace the existing pipeline, which will be abandoned. In consideration for the PNGPC limited liability company interests, at closing, the Partnership will deliver (i) an intercompany promissory note in an amount to be determined based on the amounts expended through the closing date with respect to the New Pipeline and the abandonment of the existing line, (ii) an expansion rights and right of first refusal agreement in favor of PBF LLC with respect to the New Pipeline and (iii) an assignment and assumption agreement with respect to certain outstanding litigation involving PNGPC and the existing pipeline.

As part of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement, PBF Holding, a wholly-owned subsidiary of PBF LLC, will distribute all of the equity interests of PNGPC to PBF LLC immediately prior to the contribution by PBF LLC to the Partnership. The closing of the Contribution Agreement is subject to customary closing conditions of the parties. In addition, in connection with the closing, the parties and certain of their affiliates will, among other things, enter into (i) a precedent agreement requiring a firm transportation agreement be entered into between PNGPC and the Paulsboro refinery with a minimum volume commitment of 60,000 dekatherms per day, and having an initial term of fifteen years; and (ii) amendments to the Partnership’s existing Fourth Amended and Restated Operation and Management Services Agreement. The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement is expected to occur on or about February 28, 2017.

Each of the parties to the Contribution Agreement is a direct or indirect subsidiary of PBF Energy. As a result, certain individuals, including officers of PBF Energy and officers and directors of PBF Logistics GP LLC (“PBF GP”), the general partner of the Partnership, serve as officers and/or directors of one or more of such entities. PBF Energy, through its consolidated subsidiaries, currently (as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K) owns 2,572,944 common units and 15,886,553 subordinated units of the Partnership, collectively representing a 44.2% limited partner interest in the Partnership based on the number of common units and subordinated units outstanding. PBF Energy also indirectly owns the general partner interest in the Partnership, through its control and ownership of PBF GP, and all of the Partnership’s incentive distribution rights.

The Conflicts Committee of the Board of Directors of PBF GP, which is comprised of independent directors and was advised by Vinson & Elkins LLP, its legal counsel, approved the terms and conditions of the Contribution Agreement.

The foregoing description is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Contribution Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. The Contribution Agreement contains representations and warranties that the parties to the Contribution Agreement made solely for the benefit of each other. The assertions embodied in such representations and warranties are qualified by information contained in disclosure schedules that the parties exchanged in connection with signing the Contribution Agreement. In addition, these representations and warranties (i) may be intended not as statements of fact, but rather as a way of allocating risk to one of the parties if those statements prove to be inaccurate, (ii) may apply materiality standards different from what may be viewed as material to investors and (iii) were made only as of the date of the Contribution Agreement or as of such other date or dates as may be specified in the Contribution Agreement. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of such representations and warranties may change after the date of the Contribution Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Partnership’s public disclosures. Investors are urged not to rely on such representations and warranties as characterizations of the actual state of facts or circumstances at this time or any other time.








Storage Services Agreement

On February 15, 2017, PBF Holding and the Partnership’s wholly-owned subsidiary, PBFX Operating Company LLC (“PBFX Operating”) entered into a ten-year storage services agreement (the “Chalmette Storage Agreement”) under which the Partnership, through PBFX Operating, will provide storage services to PBF Holding upon the earlier of November 1, 2017 and the completion of construction of a new tank with a shell capacity of 625,000 barrels at PBF Holding’s Chalmette refinery. PBFX Operating and Chalmette Refining, L.L.C. (“Chalmette Refining”) have entered into a twenty-year lease for the premises upon which the tank will be located (the “Lease”) and a project management agreement (the “Project Management Agreement”) pursuant to which Chalmette Refining will manage the construction of the tank. The Chalmette Storage Agreement can be extended by PBF Holding for two additional five-year periods. Under the Chalmette Storage Agreement, the Partnership will provide PBF Holding with storage services in return for storage fees. The storage services require the Partnership to accept, redeliver and store all products tendered by PBF Holding in the tank and PBF Holding will pay a monthly fee of $0.60 per barrel of shell capacity. The Lease can be extended by PBFX Operating.

The Conflicts Committee of the Board of Directors of PBF GP, which is comprised of independent directors and was advised by Vinson & Elkins LLP, its legal counsel, approved the terms and conditions of the Chalmette Storage Agreement, the Project Management Agreement and the Lease.

The foregoing description is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Chalmette Storage Agreement, the Project Management Agreement and the Lease which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

The two arbitrators so chosen shall select a third arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the second arbitrator has been appointed, and, in the of an Arbitrable Dispute involving a dispute of an amount less than $1,000,000, such third arbitrator shall act as the sole arbitrator, and the sole role of the first two arbitrators shall be to appoint such third arbitrator. Claimant shall pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by or for it, and Respondent shall 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. Claimant and Respondent shall each pay one-half of the compensation and expenses of the third arbitrator. All arbitrators must (a) be neutral parties who have never been officers, directors or employees of the Operator, the Company or any of their Affiliates and (b) have not less than seven (7) years’ experience in the energy industry. The hearing shall be conducted in the State of Delaware or the Philadelphia Metropolitan area and commence within thirty (30) days after the selection of the third arbitrator. The Company, the Operator 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 shall be binding on and non-appealable by the Parties hereto. The arbitrators shall have no right to grant or award Special Damages. Notwithstanding anything herein the contrary, the Company may not dispute any amounts with respect to an invoice delivered in accordance with Article 5 that the Company has not objected to within one hundred twenty (120) days of receipt thereof.
ARTICLE 23
GENERAL
23.1 Severability . Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall 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 shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, and the Parties shall 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.

Form of Precedent Agreement





PRECEDENT AGREEMENT
FOR THE FIRM TRANSPORTATION OF NATURAL GAS
This PRECEDENT AGREEMENT for the Firm Transportation of Natural Gas (“ Precedent Agreement ”) is made and entered into this ___ day of ____________, 2017, by and between PAULSBORO NATURAL GAS PIPELINE COMPANY LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“ PNGPC ”), and PAULSBORO REFINING COMPANY LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“ PRC ”), sometimes jointly referred to herein as the “Parties” or singly as a “Party.”
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, PNGPC is a natural gas pipeline company engaged in the transportation of natural gas in interstate commerce; and
WHEREAS, PRC owns and operates a petroleum refinery and associated facilities which are currently connected to the natural gas pipeline facilities of PNGPC; and
WHEREAS, PNGPC and PRC are parties to an existing firm transportation service agreement under the terms of which PRC takes delivery of natural gas for use in its operations (the “ Existing Service Agreement ”); and
WHEREAS, PNGPC owns and operates an existing interstate natural gas pipeline that originates in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, at an interconnection with Texas Eastern pipeline that runs under the Delaware River and terminates at the delivery point to PRC’s refinery in Paulsboro, Gloucester County, New Jersey, and is subject to regulation by FERC (as defined below); and
WHEREAS, PNGPC filed an application at FERC requesting authorization to abandon and replace its existing pipeline and to construct a new 24” pipeline (the “ PNG Pipeline ”) to substantially replace the existing pipeline and by its order dated September 7, 2016, FERC issued PNGPC a certificate of public convenience and necessity granting the requested authorization, including construction of the PNG Pipeline with a certificated capacity of 60,000 dekatherm per day (Dth/d) (“ FERC Authorization ”); and
WHEREAS, PNGPC is in the process of constructing the PNG Pipeline; and
WHEREAS, PRC desires to obtain firm transportation service from PNGPC on the PNG Pipeline, provided that PRC and PNGPC enter into a new firm transportation service agreement for the firm transportation service requested substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A (the “ FT Agreement ”); and
WHEREAS, PNGPC, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Precedent Agreement, will: (1) seek the remaining governmental and regulatory authorizations which are required in order to construct the PNG Pipeline and provide the firm transportation service contemplated under the FT Agreement, (2) obtain all necessary easements and rights of way and (3) design, engineer, construct, install, test, inspect, operate, own and maintain the PNG Pipeline.

1



NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, and intending to be legally bound, PNGPC and PRC agree as follows:
1.     PNGPC’s Obligations .     
a.
Government Approvals . PNGPC shall proceed with reasonable due diligence to obtain all required governmental authorizations from governmental authorities having competent jurisdiction and required to construct and operate the PNG Pipeline necessary to render the firm transportation service contemplated herein and specified in Exhibit A including but not limited to any required authorizations of FERC (the “ PNGPC Authorizations ”). PNGPC shall file and prosecute any and all applications for such pipeline authorizations in connection with the PNG Pipeline, including any supplements or amendments thereto and, if necessary, any petition for court review; provided, however, PNGPC shall pursue the PNGPC Authorizations in a manner designed to provide the firm transportation service contemplated herein in a timely manner .

b.
Construction of the PNG Pipeline . Subject to the terms and conditions of this Precedent Agreement, PNGPC agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to expeditiously construct the PNG Pipeline in accordance with all applicable legal requirements.

2. Term; Evergreen Renewal; ROFR . Within thirty (30) days after fulfillment of the conditions precedent set forth in Paragraph 6, below, PNGPC and PRC shall enter into the FT Agreement, with a primary term from July 1, 2017, or such later date as service on the PNG Pipeline actually commences as provided in Paragraphs 4 and 5 of this Precedent Agreement, and ending fifteen (15) years from the actual service commencement date (the “ Initial Term ”); provided that following expiration of the Initial Term, PRC shall have annual evergreen renewal rights, for one year term extensions of the FT Agreement at the same rate and quantity, or portion of such quantity, as in effect at the end of the Initial Term or subsequent evergreen extended term, exercisable upon a minimum of six (6) months written notice. PRC shall also hold a one-time contractual right of first refusal (“ ROFR ”), effective at the end of the Initial Term, to be applicable to any portion of the quantity, exercisable upon sixty (60) days’ notice or such lesser notice provisions included in the tariff then applicable to the PNG Pipeline. Except as provided in Paragraphs 5, 7 and 8, this Precedent Agreement shall terminate automatically upon the execution of the FT Agreement by an officer or other authorized representative of both Parties.
3. PRC Options . For a period commencing on the in-service date of the PNG Pipeline, and ending five (5) calendar years later, to the extent that the certificated capacity of the PNG Pipeline is increased and subject to availability, PRC shall have the right to elect on three (3) occasions to increase its MVC (as defined in the FT Agreement) up to the remaining unsubscribed capacity of the PNG Pipeline at PRC’s transportation rate as set forth on Exhibit A . The minimum term for any resulting FT Agreement is 5 years.


2



4. Rates . PRC agrees to pay a rate (the “ Initial Transportation Rate ”) for firm transportation service under the FT Agreement which is subject to adjustment based on Total Project Costs as determined in the manner under Exhibit A to the FT Agreement (the “ Adjusted Transportation Rate ”) Exhibit A. Such adjusted rate, once finally determined, will be applicable for the entire term of PRC’s FT Agreement, as specified on Exhibit A .
Such transportation rate shall be applicable to service under each FT Agreement during the entire term of such FT Agreement, as the same may be extended, regardless of any otherwise applicable maximum rate and shall be applicable at all primary and secondary points on the PNG Pipeline that are located in a zone covered by PRC’s primary transportation path(s); provided that the applicability of the transportation rate assumes that receipts and deliveries under the FT Agreement will be made at the prevailing operating pressures of the PNG Pipeline and that the transportation rate does not cover any non-conforming quality or pressure requirement at any receipt or delivery point.
PRC shall not be obligated to pay any other charges such as a commodity rate, ACA and any other additional authorized charges or surcharges applied pursuant to any FERC approved Gas Tariff applicable to PNG Pipeline (the “ Tariff ”) other than a charge for lost and unaccounted for gas (“ L&U ”) to be determined on an annual basis. Shipper shall furnish, or be credited if a gain, its pro rata share of the quantity of lost-and-unaccounted-for gas associated with rendering transportation service pursuant to this Agreement. L&U shall be determined based on actual L&U for the preceding year and an adjustment to true-up under- or over-recoveries over the course of the following year.

In the event PNGPC increases the certificated capacity of the PNG Pipeline, PNGPC agrees that the transportation rate payable by PRC under the FT Agreement shall be proportionately reduced to reflect the new capacity.
5.    PNGPC shall proceed with due diligence to construct and place in service the PNG Pipeline required to provide the firm transportation service contemplated herein. Title to, and risk of loss for, the PNG Pipeline shall, at all times, remain with PNGPC or one of its affiliates. PNGPC, upon request, will provide PRC with a status of the prosecution of applications for the PNGPC Authorizations and the construction of the PNG Pipeline.
If, after proceeding with due diligence, PNGPC is unable to provide firm transportation service for PRC under the FT Agreement by July 1, 2017, PNGPC shall continue to proceed with due diligence to complete arrangements for such service, and commence the firm transportation service for PRC at the earliest practicable date thereafter. In no event shall PNGPC be liable to PRC, or any affiliate of PRC, for any consequential damages incurred or sustained by PRC, or any affiliate of PRC, if, despite PNGPC’s exercise of due diligence, it is unable to obtain the governmental authorizations (or fulfill any other conditions) and complete the construction, testing, inspection, and initial start-up of the facilities and commence the firm transportation service contemplated herein and under the FT Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, each party retains all rights, remedies and defenses it may have at law or in equity in any such event.

3



The provisions of this Paragraph 5 shall survive termination of this Precedent Agreement.
6.    Performance by PNGPC and PRC of the duties and obligations assumed by each Party in Paragraphs 2 and 4 of this Precedent Agreement is expressly made subject to the fulfillment or waiver of the following conditions precedent:
(a)
All appropriate and final governmental approvals and other applicable authorization must be obtained on terms acceptable to PNGPC, including approval of construction, rates and terms and conditions of service; and

(b)

The Initial Term of this Agreement shall be for a period of fifteen (15) years.
The Initial Transportation Rate under this Agreement shall be $0.39 per dekatherm and Shipper and Transporter agrees that such rate shall adjust to (i) reflect the change in the costs of the PNG Pipeline between the time of execution of this Agreement and the time when the PNG Pipeline is placed in-service and the abandonment of the Existing Pipeline is completed and (ii) an expansion of the PNG Pipeline to accommodate additional shippers.
Once the Total Project Costs are calculated by Transporter, Transporter shall calculate an Adjusted Transportation Rate using the following rate adjustment mechanism (“Total Project Cost Adjustment”):
“Total Project Costs” shall include the costs actually incurred by Transporter in connection with the construction of the PNG Pipeline and the abandonment of a portion of the Existing Pipeline to the extent such costs are for items set forth in Appendix 1.
For purposes of this calculation, base Cost = $53,000,000
Cost Adjustment = Total Project Costs/Base Cost -1
Rate Adjustment = Initial Transportation Rate x (Total Project Costs / Base Cost -1)
Finally, on an annual basis, commencing with January 1, 2019, the Transportation Rate or the Adjusted Transportation Rate, as the case may be, shall be increased by a percentage equal to the positive change, if any, in the CPI‑U during the first twelve (12) Month period beginning fifteen (15) Months preceding such January 1, as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. “CPI-U” means the Consumer Price Index for All-Urban Consumers, U.S. City Average, as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Exhibit E
Form of Promissory Note





INTERCOMPANY PROMISSORY NOTE
$___________           ______________, 2017

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Paulsboro Natural Gas Pipeline Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“ Maker ” or “ PNGPC ”), promises to pay to the order of PAULSBORO REFINING COMPANY LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“ Paulsboro Refining ”; Paulsboro Refining together with its successors and assigns, the “ Holder ”), at its office address at One Sylvan Way, Second Floor, Parsippany, New Jersey 07054, or at such other place or to such account as the Holder may from time to time designate in writing, the principal sum of ____________________________ Dollars ($_______), in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon at the rate(s) as provided in this Intercompany Promissory Note (this “ Note ”). This Note is executed to reflect amounts owing by PNGPC to Paulsboro Refining in respect of payments made by Paulsboro Refining on behalf of PNGPC pursuant to one or more agreements relating to the Project.
1.      Maturity; Payments . The outstanding principal amount of this Note, together with all accrued, unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date (as defined below). Maker shall have the right from time to time to prepay in whole or in part, without notice, penalty, or premium, the outstanding principal under this Note, provided only that Maker simultaneously pays interest to the date of such prepayment.

2.      Interest .
(a)      For the period prior to and including the Maturity Date, the outstanding principal under this Note shall bear interest at a rate equal to the lesser of (i) the per annum rate charged on Eurodollar Rate Loans as defined in the hereinafter defined Senior Credit Agreement, as such rate may change from time to time and irrespective of whether any such Eurodollar Rate Loans are actually outstanding under the Senior Credit Agreement, and (ii) eight percent (8%) per annum.
(b)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, all overdue principal and other overdue amounts shall thereafter bear interest payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the rate charged to Maker for like sums that are past due under any document evidencing the Senior Credit Facility, as such rate may change from time to time and irrespective of whether any such sums are actually past due under any such document, and (ii) twelve percent (12%). Payment or acceptance of increased rates of interest provided for in this subparagraph (b) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Holder.
(c)      All interest hereunder shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the related interest accrual period over a 365-day (or 366-day) year.




(d)      Accrued interest shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date; provided that (i) if the principal balance hereof is paid in whole or in part on any date other than the Maturity Date, interest shall be due and payable on the amount paid on such date, and (ii) interest accrued at the default rate shall be payable on demand.
3.      No Deduction for Taxes . Any and all payments or reimbursements made by Maker hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all current or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings with respect to such payments or reimbursements and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on the net income of the Holder by the jurisdiction under the laws of which the Holder is organized or any political subdivision thereof and any political organization of which such jurisdiction is a part (all such nonexcluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and liabilities, collectively or individually, “ Taxes ”). If Maker shall be required to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased by the amount necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Paragraph 3 ), the Holder shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Maker shall make such deductions, and (iii) Maker shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant governmental authority in accordance with applicable law.

4.      Tax Indemnification . Maker shall indemnify the Holder for the full amount of Taxes paid by the Holder relating to payments made by Maker hereunder, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses)) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by the relevant governmental authority. A certificate setting forth and containing an explanation in reasonable detail of the manner in which such amount shall have been determined and the amount of such payment or liability prepared by the Holder, absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. Such indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date the Holder makes written demand therefor. If any Taxes for which the Holder has received indemnification from Maker hereunder (such determination to be made in the sole discretion of the Holder) shall be finally determined to have been incorrectly or illegally asserted and are refunded to the Holder, the Holder shall promptly forward to Maker any such refunded amount (after deduction of any Taxes paid or payable by the Holder as a result of such refund), not exceeding the increased amount paid by Maker pursuant to Paragraph 3 .

5.      Rank . The indebtedness and obligations evidenced by this Note shall be pari passu with all other senior indebtedness of Maker.

6.      Representations and Warranties . Maker hereby represents and warrants that, as of the date first above written (unless otherwise noted):

4. TERM
(a) Initial Term and Extension Terms . The initial term of this Agreement shall commence on the Commencement Date and shall continue through the tenth anniversary of the Commencement Date (the “ Initial Term ”). This Agreement shall automatically renew following the expiration of the Initial Term for an additional period of five (5) years (the “ Initial Extension Period ”) unless Customer notifies Operator at least two years in advance of the expiration of the Initial Term that Customer is not electing to renew. Customer may, at its option, extend the Initial Extension Period for another renewal term of five (5) years (the “ Second Extension Period ” and the Initial Extension Period and the Second Extension Period, each, an “ Extension Period ”) by providing written notice of its intent to Operator no less than three hundred sixty-

7



five (365) calendar days prior to the end of the Initial Extension Period. The Initial Term, and any extensions of this Agreement as provided above, shall be referred to herein as the “ Term .”
(b) Termination . The Parties may terminate this Agreement prior to the end of the Term (i) as they may mutually agree in writing or (ii) under Section 21 or Section 22 .
5.
SERVICES FEE
(a) Services Fee Subject to the provisions set forth in Section 22(a) , Customer shall pay Operator a Monthly fee of $0.60 per Barrel of Shell Capacity dedicated to Customer under this Agreement in such Month (the “ Storage Services Fee ”).
(b) Adjustment to Storage Services Fee . The Parties shall from time to time negotiate an appropriate adjustment to the Storage Services Fee if the following conditions are met for a period of thirty (30) consecutive days: (i) the full Operating Capacity of the Tanks is not available to Customer due to a failure, breakage, or accident to any of Operator’s equipment or facilities that is caused by Operator, and (ii) Operator is unable to otherwise accommodate the actual volumes of Products required to be stored by Customer under this Agreement for reasons within the reasonable control of Operator. 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 Tank pursuant to the mutually agreed Storage Facility Service Order. For example, if the Storage Services Fee applicable to the Shell Capacity of the Tank is $0.60 per Barrel per Month x 345,000 Barrels = $207,000, and if the Operating Capacity in the then-applicable Storage Facility Service Order is 301,000 Barrels, and if the Operating Capacity falls 10% to 270,900, then the Storage Services Fee for the affected Tank during the period in which the full Operating Capacity of the Tank is not available to Customer for any reason (other than any reason resulting from or relating to actions or inactions by Customer) would be reduced by 10% to $186,300. The Parties recognize that the existing Operating Capacity of the Tank may be less than the Shell Capacity of the Tank, 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 Storage Facility Service Order.
(c) Rate and Fee . The Storage Services Fee shall be calculated for the then-existing Shell Capacity of the Tank. 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.
STORAGE FACILITY SERVICE ORDERS
(a) Description . Customer and Operator will enter into the Storage Facility Service Order attached as Exhibit 1 as of the Effective Date and may enter into additional storage facility service orders substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 2 (each, a “ Storage Facility Service Order ”). Upon the request of Customer under this Agreement or as deemed necessary or appropriate by Operator in connection with the services to be delivered pursuant hereto, Operator shall generate a Storage Facility Service Order to set forth the specific terms and conditions for providing the applicable services described therein and the applicable fees to be

8



charged for such services. No Storage Facility Service Order shall be effective until fully executed by both Customer and Operator.
(b) Included Items . Items available for inclusion on a Storage Facility Service Order include, but are not limited to, the following:
(i) the Operating Capacity and Shell Capacity of the Tank;
(ii) the Services Fees 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 the Tank as requested by Customer 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 . The Storage Services Fees set forth in this Agreement and any other fees set forth in any Storage Facility Service Order shall be increased on January 1 of each Contract Year, commencing on January 1, 2019, (i) by an amount equal to the increase or decrease, if any, in the Producer Price Index during the previous Contract Year and (ii) by an amount equal to the increase, if any, in the individual out-of-pocket costs that increase greater than the Producer Price Index reasonably incurred by Operator in connection with providing the services hereunder; provided , however , that no fee shall be decreased below the initial fee for such service provided in this Agreement; provided , further , that Operator shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any such rise in out-of-pocket costs incurred by Operator in connection with providing the services hereunder. In the event of an Index Change, Customer and Operator shall negotiate in good faith to agree on a new index that gives comparable protection against inflation that the Producer Price Index gave as of the date hereof, and, for all periods following the date of such Index Change, such new index shall replace the Producer Price Index for all purposes herein.
(d) Conflicts . In case of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Storage Facility Service Order, the terms of the applicable Storage Facility 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 Prudent Industry Practice, Operator shall maintain the Tank and the Pipelines in a condition and with a capacity sufficient to store and handle a volume of Customer’s Products at least equal to the initial Operating Capacity of the Tank. Operator’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 Operator’s ability to perform such obligations. If, for any reason,

9



including a Force Majeure event, the condition of the Tank or associated Pipelines are below the level necessary for Operator to store and handle a volume of Customer’s Products at least equal to the initial Operating Capacity, then within a reasonable period of time thereafter, Operator shall make repairs to restore the capacity of the Tank or associated Pipelines to ensure service at the initial Operating Capacity (“ Restoration ”). Except as provided below in Section 7(b) , all of such Restoration work shall be at Operator’s cost and expense, unless the damage creating the need for such repairs was caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Customer’s employees, agents or customers.
(b) Tank Capacity Resolution . Subject to Section 22 , if Operator fails to maintain the Tank or any Pipeline in a condition and with a capacity sufficient to store and handle a volume of Customer’s Products equal to its initial 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 Pipelines which will, among other things, specify steps to be taken by Operator 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 Prudent Industry Practice and shall take into consideration Operator’s economic considerations relating to costs of the repairs and Customer’s requirements concerning its refining and marketing operations. Operator shall use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to provide storage of Customer’s Products in the Tank during the period before Restoration is completed. If Customer’s economic considerations justify incurring additional costs to restore the Tank and/or associated Pipelines in a more expedited manner than the time schedule determined in accordance with the preceding sentences, then Customer may require Operator to expedite the Restoration to the extent reasonably possible, subject to Customer’s payment upon the occurrence of mutually agreed upon milestones in the Restoration process. If the Operating Capacity of the Tank is reduced, and the Parties agree that the Restoration of the 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 Customer’s use. If the Parties agree to an expedited Restoration plan in which Customer 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 Storage Facility Service Order pursuant to Section 23 below, so long as any such Restoration is completed with due diligence.
(c) Customer’s Right To Cure . If Operator either (i) refuses or fails to meet with Customer 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, then Customer may, as its sole remedy for any breach by Operator of any of its obligations under Section 7(b) , require

10



Operator to complete a Restoration of the Tank or 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 Customer’s use until such Restoration is completed. Any such Restoration required under this Section 7(c) shall be completed by Operator at Customer’s cost. Operator shall use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to provide storage of Customer’s Products at the Tank or Pipeline while such Restoration is being completed. Any work performed by Operator pursuant to this Section 7(c) shall be performed and completed in a good and workmanlike manner consistent with applicable pipeline and terminal industry standards and in accordance with Applicable Law. Additionally, Customer may exercise any remedies available to it under this Agreement or any Storage Facility Service Order (other than termination), including the right to immediately seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief for specific performance by Operator of the applicable provisions of this Agreement or any Storage Facility Service Order, including, without limitation, the obligation to make Restorations as described herein.
8.
REIMBURSEMENT; SURCHARGES
(a) Reimbursement .

(b) Surcharges .
(i) If, during the Term, any Applicable Laws or applicable Prudent Industry Practices are changed or enacted that require Operator to make substantial and unanticipated expenditures (whether capitalized or otherwise) with respect to the Tank or with respect to the services provided hereunder, Operator may, subject to the terms of this Section 8(b) , impose a surcharge (a “ Surcharge ”) to cover Customer’s pro rata share of the cost of complying with these Applicable Laws or Prudent Industry Practices, based upon the percentage of Customer’s use of the services or facilities, as compared to use by third parties, impacted by such Applicable Laws or Prudent Industry Practices.
(ii) Operator shall notify Customer of such changes resulting in a proposed Surcharge to be imposed pursuant to Section 8(b)(i) . Operator and Customer then shall negotiate in good faith for up to thirty (30) days to mutually determine the effect of the change in any Applicable Laws or Prudent Industry Practices, the cost thereof, and how such cost shall be paid, with the understanding that Operator and Customer shall use their reasonable commercial efforts to mitigate the impact of, and comply with, these Applicable Laws and Prudent Industry Practices. 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 Storage Facility 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 Applicable Laws or Prudent Industry Practices were changed or enacted.

11



(iii) Operator shall invoice Customer for Surcharges as the costs are incurred by Operator.
9. TANK MODIFICATION AND CLEANING; REMOVAL OF PRODUCT

In such an instance, Operator 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 Laws. If any such modifications, improvements, vapor recovery, cleaning, degassing, or other preparation of the Tanks is performed by Operator at the request of Customer, then Customer 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 Operator may be required to pay in regard to such waste (subject to subparagraph (c) below), which costs shall be set forth on the applicable Storage Facility Service Order. Operator may require Customer 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 Operator for its costs of such modifications, plus a reasonable return on capital.
(b) Responsibility for Fees . If Operator takes the Tanks out of service for regulatory requirements, repair, or maintenance, then Customer shall be solely responsible for any alternative storage or Product movements as required and all third-party fees associated with such movements. Unless the Tank is removed specifically at Customer’s request, then Customer shall not be responsible to Operator for any Storage Services Fee during the period that the Tank is out of service.
(c) Removal of Product . Materials stored in or removed from the Tank shall at all times remain owned by Customer or Customer’s Designee, which shall always remain responsible for, at its sole cost, receiving custody of all of its materials to be removed from the Tank, making appropriate arrangements to receive custody at the Tank in a manner acceptable to Operator, and disposal of such material after custody is returned to Customer or Customer’s Designee. Customer shall be responsible for any fees and costs associated with the disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste unless caused by Operator’s gross negligence, or willful misconduct. Operator shall have no obligations regarding disposition of such materials, other than to return custody to Customer at the Tank. Customer or Customer’s Designee shall be responsible, at its own expense, for any insurance for Products at the Tank.

Customer shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Operator, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, representatives, agents, contractors, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “ Operator Indemnitees ”) from and against any Liabilities directly or indirectly arising out of (i) any breach by Customer of any covenant or agreement contained herein or made in connection herewith or any representation or warranty of Customer made herein or in connection herewith proving to be false or misleading, (ii) any personal injury incurred by any representative of Customer or the Customer Designee (including any Supplier Inspector or Customer Inspector) while on Operator’s property, (iii) any failure by Customer, the Customer Designee, their respective Affiliates or any of their respective employees, representatives (including any Supplier Inspector or Customer Inspector), agents or contractors to comply with or observe any Applicable Law, or (iv) injury, disease, or death of any Person or damage to or loss of any property, fine or penalty, any of which is caused by Customer, the Customer Designee, their respective Affiliates or any of their respective employees, representatives (including any Supplier Inspector or Customer Inspector), agents or contractors in the exercise of any of the rights granted hereunder or the refining or storage of any Products hereunder, except to the extent of Operator’s obligations under Section 20(a) above, and except to the extent that such injury, disease, death, or damage

16



to or loss of property, fine or penalty was caused by the negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Operator Indemnitees, their Affiliates or any of their respective employees, representatives, agents or contractors. The foregoing indemnity will apply to Liabilities arising out of Operator’s negligence other than Operator’s gross or sole negligence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer’s liability to the Operator Indemnitees pursuant to this Section 20(b) shall be net of any insurance proceeds actually received by the Operator Indemnitees or any of their respective Affiliates from any third party with respect to or on account of the damage or injury which is the subject of the indemnification claim. Operator shall, and shall cause the other Operator Indemnitees to, (A) use all commercially reasonable efforts to pursue the collection of all insurance proceeds to which any of the Operator Indemnitees are entitled with respect to or on account of any such damage or injury, (B) notify Customer of all potential claims against any third party for any such insurance proceeds, and (C) keep Customer fully informed of the efforts of the Operator Indemnitees in pursuing collection of such insurance proceeds.
(c) Indemnity Procedure . As soon as practicable after a party (the “ Indemnified Party ”) receives notice of any suit or other proceeding brought against it by a third party for which indemnification is sought pursuant to this Section 20 (a “ third party claim ”), the Indemnified Party shall furnish to the other party (the “ Indemnifying Party ”) written notice of such third party claim and a request for indemnification under this Section 20 , but the failure of an Indemnified Party to give such notice to the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations to indemnify the Indemnified Party under this Section 20 except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party was materially and adversely prejudiced by the failure to receive such notice. The Indemnifying Party may elect to assume the defense of such third party claim with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party by giving to the Indemnified Party written notice of such election within 30 days of receipt of notice of such third party claim. The Indemnified Party shall provide to the Indemnifying Party any information reasonably within its knowledge relating to such third party claim and shall render all reasonable assistance requested by the Indemnifying Party in the defense thereof. The Indemnified Party may participate, but will not be obligated to participate, at its own expense, with counsel of its own selection, in the defense and/or settlement thereof without relieving the Indemnifying Party of any obligations hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense of any such third party claim within such 30-day period, then the Indemnified Party may defend such third party claim with counsel of its choosing at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party (which counsel must be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party).
(d) Settlements . Except as provided in the last sentence of this paragraph, the Indemnified Party shall not settle or comprise any third party claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). The Indemnifying Party shall not settle or comprise any such matter without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) unless such settlement or compromise relates solely to the payment of money damages and includes an unconditional release in writing in favor of the Indemnified Party of all liabilities in respect thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, an Indemnified Party may withhold consent to any settlement or compromise of any third party claim, and may under all circumstances control the defense and settlement of

17



such third party claim with counsel of its choosing, to the extent that such third party claim does not involve the payment of money damages and the adverse party is seeking injunctive relief or any other non-monetary relief that is reasonably expected by the Indemnified Party to have a material and adverse impact on the operations, business or condition (financial or otherwise) of such Indemnified Party or its Affiliates.
21. TERMINATION; RIGHT TO ENTER INTO A NEW AGREEMENT
(a) Termination for Default . A Party shall be in default under this Agreement or any Storage Facility Service Order if:
(i) the Party breaches any provision of this Agreement or a Storage Facility Service Order, which breach has a material adverse effect on the other Party (with such material adverse effect being determined based on this Agreement and all Storage Facility 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; or

(b) Other Breaches . If a Party breaches any provision of this Agreement or a Storage Facility Services Order, 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.
(c) Obligations at Termination .

If Product is not removed within such thirty (30) day period, then Customer 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

18



Agreement until such time Customer’s entire Product is removed from the Tank.

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 ”). Customer shall be required to pay any amounts accrued and due under this Agreement at the time of the start of the Force Majeure event. The Force Majeure Party shall remedy the cause of the Force Majeure event so far as possible with all reasonable efforts, except that no Party shall be compelled to resolve any strikes, lockouts or other industrial or labor disputes other than as it shall determine to be in its best interests or to receive or deliver any Product at any facility other than the Tank.
(b) Termination Notice . If the Force Majeure Party advises in any Force Majeure Notice that it reasonably believes in good faith that the Force Majeure Period will continue for more than twelve (12) consecutive, 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 delivery of the Termination Notice; 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, and, 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.

28. ARBITRATION
Any and all Arbitrable Disputes (except to the extent injunctive relief is sought) shall be resolved through the use of binding arbitration using, in the case of an Arbitrable Dispute involving a dispute of an amount equal to or greater than $1,000,000 or non-monetary relief, three arbitrators, and in the case of an Arbitrable Dispute involving a dispute of an amount less than $1,000,000, one arbitrator, in each case 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 28 and the Commercial Arbitration Rules or the Federal Arbitration Act, the terms of this Section 28 will control the rights and obligations of the Parties. Arbitration must be initiated within the time limits set

24



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 Claimant elects to refer the Arbitrable Dispute to binding arbitration. Claimant’s notice initiating binding arbitration must identify the arbitrator Claimant has appointed. Respondent shall respond to Claimant within thirty (30) days after receipt of Claimant’s notice, identifying the arbitrator Respondent has appointed. If 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, and, in the event of an Arbitrable Dispute involving a dispute of an amount less than $1,000,000, such third arbitrator shall act as the sole arbitrator, and the sole role of the first two arbitrators shall be to appoint such third arbitrator. Claimant will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by or for it, and 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. Claimant and Respondent will each pay one-half of the compensation and expenses of the third arbitrator. All arbitrators must (a) be neutral parties who have never been officers, directors or employees of Operator, Customer, or any of their Affiliates and (b) have not less than seven (7) years’ experience in the energy industry. The hearing will be conducted in the State of Delaware or the Wilmington, Delaware Metropolitan area and commence within thirty (30) days after the selection of the third arbitrator. Customer, Operator 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. Notwithstanding anything herein the contrary, Customer may not dispute any amounts with respect to an invoice delivered in accordance with Section 11 that Customer has not objected to within one hundred twenty (120) days of receipt thereof. No default shall occur hereunder if the subject matter underlying such potential default is the subject matter of any dispute that is pending resolution or arbitration under this Section 28 until such time that such dispute is resolved in accordance with this Section 28 .
29. 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 29 .

Notwithstanding the foregoing but subject to Section 29(b) , nothing in this Section 29(a) will prevent either party from disclosing such information (a) to any officer, director, employee, agent, or advisor of such party for purposes of administering, negotiating, considering, implementing, assigning, or evaluating the agreements provided herein and the transactions contemplated hereby (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential), (b) as required by any Applicable Law, (c) upon the order or request of any Governmental Authority, (d) that is or becomes available to the public or that is or becomes

(b) Required Disclosure . If the receiving Party becomes legally compelled to disclose the Confidential Information by a 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. Any Confidential Information retained by the receiving Party shall be maintained subject to confidentiality pursuant to the terms of this Section 29 , and such archived or back-up Confidential Information shall not be accessed except as required by Applicable Law for so long as such Confidential Information is retained.
(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 Storage Facility 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 29 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of two (2) years.

If there is any inconsistency between this Section 11.3 and the Commercial Arbitration Rules or the Federal Arbitration Act, the terms of this Section 11.3 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.

Claimant’s notice initiating binding arbitration must identify the arbitrator Claimant has appointed. Respondent shall respond to Claimant within 30 days after receipt of Claimant’s notice, identifying

The hearing will be conducted in the State of Delaware or the Wilmington, Delaware Metropolitan area and commence within 30 days after the selection of the third arbitrator. Customer, Operator 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. Notwithstanding anything herein the contrary, Customer may not dispute any amounts with respect to an invoice delivered in accordance with Section 5.2 that Customer has not objected to within 120 days of receipt thereof. No default shall occur hereunder if the subject matter underlying such potential default is the subject matter of any dispute that is pending resolution or arbitration under this Section 11.3 until such time that such dispute is resolved in accordance with this Section 11.3 .
11.4     Counterparts .

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. No waiver of any term or condition or of any breach of this Agreement will be deemed or will constitute a waiver of any other term or condition or of any later breach (whether or not similar), nor will such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.
11.8     No Partnership . The Parties shall not be deemed to be partners or joint venturers by virtue of this Agreement or any discussions or actions related to the Project.

17



11.9     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.
11.10     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, a successor or permitted assignee of a Party, a Manager Party or an Owner Party.

The Tank, Pumping Station and Electrical Transformer are collectively referred to as the “Improvements” .
C.      Landlord and Tenant desire to enter into this Lease to set forth the terms and conditions under which the use of a portion of the Property and the Improvements will be permitted.
Agreement
For and in consideration of the foregoing recitals, which are incorporated herein by this reference, and the mutual promises contained herein, the rents reserved herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, Landlord and Tenant agree as follows:
1. Premises. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease, Landlord hereby leases to Tenant, and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord, the property (the “Premises” ) described on Exhibit A, which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, as if fully set forth herein.

Tenant specifically acknowledges and agrees that: (a) the Premises may be subject to flooding at anytime and (b) that Landlord will have no liability to Tenant for the water level on the Premises. Nothing in this Lease will prohibit or restrict Landlord, in any way, directly or indirectly, from leasing any other property or engaging in any business which may compete with Tenant.

The “Initial Term” of this Lease will commence on the 15 th day of February, 2017 (the “ Commencement Date ”), and will terminate on the 15 th day of February, 2037 or at such earlier time as herein provided (the “ Termination Date ”); provided, however, that Tenant shall have the option to extend this this Lease for two (2) additional terms of ten years (each an “ Extension Term ” and the Initial Term and any Extension Term are referred to herein as the “ Term ”) upon six months’ advance notice prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or the initial Extension Term as the case may be. Tenant will be entitled to possession of the Premises on the Commencement Date.
5. Early Termination. Landlord may terminate this Lease immediately upon a default by Tenant and failure to cure such default, as provided herein.
6. Rent.      Tenant will pay to Landlord as rent for use of the Premises, from the Commencement Date until the Termination Date, One Dollar and No Cents ($1.00) annually (the “ Rent ”). Rent will be payable annually and will be due by the tenth (10 th ) day of January for each year of the Term.
7. Taxes. In addition to the Rent, Tenant will pay, prior to delinquency, all applicable excise, sales, transaction and privilege taxes now in effect or hereafter enacted attributable to any payment made hereunder or activities undertaken by Tenant. Tenant will be responsible for any taxes allocable to real property that is contained within the Premises as well as any improvements, personal property, and fixtures located on the Premises. Tenant’s share of real estate taxes allocable to the Premises will be computed by multiplying the total tax bill for the taxable parcel in which the Premises is located by a fraction, the numerator of which is the acreage of the Premises and the denominator of which is the total acreage specified in such tax bill.

(a)      Tenant s lease of the Premises is subject and subordinate to the prior rights, privileges, servitudes, easements, leases, rights of way and other agreements, of any nature, heretofore granted.

All implied warranties with respect to the Premises, including those related to hidden defects therein or the fitness thereof for a particular purpose, zoning, or other regulatory matters, are hereby disclaimed by Landlord and expressly waived by Tenant unless said warranties are not allowed to be waived under the Louisiana Civil Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Landlord does not warrant that the Premises are free from hidden, redhibitory or latent defects or vices or that the Premises are fit for the use intended by the Tenant, and Tenant hereby expressly waives all rights pursuant to La.

municipal laws, ordinances, regulations or requirements (including those relating to the sale of subdivided lands), except as may be expressly described elsewhere in this Agreement; or (vii) the environmental status or condition of the Premises; and/or (viii) the extent to which the Premises or Landlord has complied or failed to comply with any permits, approvals or requirements of applicable Environmental Laws (defined below).
In particular, but without in any way limiting the foregoing, Tenant, on behalf of itself and any entity affiliated with, owned or controlled by Tenant or a controlling member of Tenant, other than the Landlord (collectively defined herein as the “ Tenant Entities ”), hereby forever waives, releases and covenants not to assert any claims against Landlord, its successors, assigns, employees, agents, representatives, past, present and future, their affiliates and subsidiaries, past present and future, their respective parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates past present and future, and each of their officers, directors, and shareholders, past, present and future, (“ Landlord’s Representatives ”) from any and all responsibility, liability, claims, rights, remedies, causes of action and damages, and expressly agrees to release, indemnify, protect and defend Landlord and Landlord’s Representatives and hold each of them harmless, from any and all actions, causes of action, claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, expenses (including reasonable consulting and attorneys’ fees) or suits of any kind brought by any third party, including, but not limited to, the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality arising from or relating to: (1) the investigation, removal and remediation of future releases or discharges or threatened releases and discharges of Hazardous Substances on, at, under, about or emanating from the Premises; (2) any other claims, for or arising out of the presence of Hazardous Substances on, at, under, about or emanating from the Premises or any property in the vicinity of the Premises (including in the soil, air, structures and surface and subsurface water), including natural resource damage claims; (3) the performance or non-performance of remedial actions with respect to any future releases or threatened releases of Hazardous Substances on the Premises; and (4) any future violations by Landlord or Landlord Representatives of any Environmental Laws regarding the Premises. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not limit or restrict any obligations that Landlord or Landlord’s Representatives may have to Tenant or Tenant Entities under any other agreement between the parties.
As used herein, the term "Environmental Law" will mean, as amended and in effect from time to time, any federal, state or local statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, judicial decision, or the judgment or decree of a governmental authority, arbitrator or other private adjudicator by which Tenant or the Premises is bound, pertaining to health, industrial hygiene, public safety, occupational safety or the environment, including, without limitation, the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act (30 U.S.C. §1201 - et seq.), the Uranium Mill Tailings Reclamation Control Act (42 U.S.C. §7901 - et seq.), the Mining Health and Safety Act (30 U.S.C. §801 - et seq.), the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation & Liability Act of 1980 (42 U.S.C. § 9601 - et seq.); the Resource, Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (42 U.S.C. § 6901 - et seq.); the Toxic Substances Control Act (15 U.S.C. § 2601 - et seq.); the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. § 1251 - et seq.); the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (33 U.S.C. § 2701 - et seq.); the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. § 7401 - et seq.); the Hazardous Substance Transportation Act; the Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Act (42 U.S.C. § 11001 - et seq.); the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. § 1531 - et seq.); the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. § 1701 - et seq.); the Lead-Based Paint Exposure Reduction

4



Act (15 U.S.C. § 2681 - et seq.); the Safe Water Drinking Act Amendments of 1996 (42 U.S.C. § 300); the Solid Waste Disposal Act (42 U.S.C. § 6901 - et seq.); the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (U.S.C. 470 - et seq.), the Louisiana Environmental Quality Act (La. R.S. 30:2001 - et seq), federal, state and local counterparts of each of the foregoing along with their federal, state or local laws relating to mines and mine reclamation. The term “Hazardous Substances” will mean any substance, material, pollutant, contaminant, waste, or special waste, whether solid, liquid or gaseous, that is infectious, toxic, hazardous, explosive, corrosive, flammable or radioactive, which is defined, designated, listed, regulated or included in any Environmental Law, including, but not limited to, asbestos or asbestos-containing material, petroleum or petroleum additive substances, polychlorinated biphenyls, sewage, or waste tires. The provisions of this Article 4.1(c) will survive Closing.
For purposes of Tenant’s release of Landlord, hazardous substances means (a) any chemicals, materials, elements or compounds or substances defined as or included in the definition of “hazardous substances,” “hazardous wastes,” “hazardous materials,” “extremely hazardous wastes,” “restricted hazardous wastes,” “toxic substances,” “toxic pollutants,” “hazardous air pollutants,” “pollutants,” “contaminants,” “toxic chemicals,” “petroleum or petroleum products,” “toxics,” “hazardous chemicals,” “extremely hazardous substances,” “pesticides” or related materials, as now, in the past, or hereafter defined in any applicable Environmental Law; (b) any petroleum or petroleum products (including but not limited to gasoline and fuel additives including MTBE and other oxygenates, typically added to gasoline or their degradation products), natural or synthetic gas, radioactive materials, asbestos-containing materials, urea formaldehyde foam insulation, and radon; and (c) any other chemical, material or substance, exposure to which is prohibited, limited or regulated by any Governmental Authority.

Tenant acknowledges that there may be use restrictions imposed on areas of the Premises as a result of certain environmental remediation projects (the “Remediation Projects” ).  Under the EPA Region VI Ready for Reuse (RfR) Program, a deed restriction will be required for certain portions of the Property in which the Premises are located covered by the RfR Program where contaminants of concern were not cleaned up to unrestricted levels.  The deed restriction will prohibit residential use on these areas of the Premises.  Under the Louisiana Voluntary Remediation Program (VRP), LDEQ will likely determine that a deed restriction needs to be filed with the clerk of the court in the Parish in which the Premises are located pursuant to LAC 33:VI.915.C restricting the use of portions of the Property that are covered by the VRP that are not cleaned up to residential levels. 

10.      Conduct on Premises . Tenant agrees to comply with the following:

(a)      No improvements of any kind other than the Improvements and alterations of the Improvements permitted under this Lease may be erected, constructed or placed within or on the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord.

(b)      No signs will be erected, maintained, constructed or placed within or on the Premises, without the prior written consent of Landlord, and the prior written consent of any governmental authority with jurisdiction over signage on the Premises;


5



(c)      No excessive noise, disturbance or nuisance which disturb or annoy any wildlife, person, persons or the Landlord will be created, allowed or permitted by the Tenant. It is understood, however, that the noise and activities of Tenant in the reasonable conduct of its operations associated with the use of the Premises and the Improvements for the Purpose will not be deemed as excessive in violation of this provision;

(d)      No trash, garbage, refuse or other property may be discarded, or disposed of on the Premises by Tenant or any guest or invitee of Tenant. Tenant at all times will keep the Premises clean and clear of all trash, debris, garbage, cans and the like, caused by Tenant, none of which will be dumped on adjacent lands but removed to and disposed of in a lawful manner. Any violations caused by Tenant will be corrected upon the request of Landlord. In the event of any violation of this restriction, Landlord may charge Tenant the cost of removing and disposing of any such trash, garbage, refuse or other property caused by Tenant, which cost Tenant agrees to pay on demand by Landlord.

11.      Assignment and Sublease. Tenant will not assign, transfer, lease, sublet or otherwise transfer the Premises or any improvements, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of Landlord. Any assignment or subletting without such consent will be void. Landlord may at anytime sell, assign, or transfer the Premises or its interest in this Lease, in whole in part, without the prior written consent of Tenant.
12.      Improvements and Alterations.
12.1 Ownership of the Improvements. All of the Improvements on the Land will remain the property of Tenant at all times during the Term or sooner termination of this Agreement. Any portion of the other Improvements that are not removed or demolished by Tenant shall be the property of Landlord. Upon the expiration or sooner termination of this Agreement, title to the Improvements on the Premises will become vested in the Landlord.

The Improvements will be maintained free from liens of materialmen, contractors, subcontractors, laborers, and other mechanic's liens (collectively, the “Mechanic's Liens” ). In the event a Mechanic's Lien is filed against the Premises as a result of the alteration, maintenance and repair of the Improvements, such Lien will be paid or bonded over by Tenant within thirty (30) days of notice to Tenant of the filing of such Lien. Nothing contained herein will limit or impede Tenant’s right to contest by appropriate legal proceedings any claims arising out of the construction, repair, or maintenance of improvements or any Mechanic’s Liens filed or asserted against the Premises or the improvements.

12.2      Right to Construct and Alter the Improvements . Tenant will have the right to construct, add to, alter, change, modify, or reconstruct the Improvements, with the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Tenant may not demolish or remove the Improvements during the Term without the Landlord’s prior written consent, which may be granted or withheld in its sole discretion. Tenant will fully and completely indemnify Landlord against any Mechanic’s Liens in connection with the making of such alterations and changes, and will pay all costs, expenses, and charges thereof. All alterations and repairs will (i) be at the sole cost and expense of Tenant; (ii) be constructed in a good and workmanlike manner; and (iii) be in compliance with all applicable Laws.


6



13.      Rules and Regulations. Tenant will comply with all laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, planning and zoning, environmental, sanitation and septic system regulations.

All rules and regulations will be determined by Landlord in its sole and absolute discretion.
14.      Compliance with Environmental Laws.
a. In the construction, maintenance and operation of the Improvements, Tenant will comply, and will cause all of its employees, agents, representatives, contractors, invitees and other third parties to comply, with all federal, state and local laws, statutes, rules, ordinances, codes and regulations relating to environmental protection, public health and safety, nuisance or menace.

d. The provisions set forth in this Section will survive termination of this Lease.
15.      Environmental Notification .
a. Tenant will promptly notify Landlord: (i) upon becoming aware of any release or threatened release of a Hazardous Substance under, on, from or about the Premises; (ii) of any proceeding, inquiry or notice from any federal, state or local body, commission, council, board or authority (“ Governmental Authority ”) or others with respect to the use or presence of any Hazardous Substances on the Premises, or the migration thereof to or from other property; (iii) of all claims made or threatened by any third party against the Premises relating to loss or injury from any Hazardous Substance; (iv) upon discovery of any occurrence or condition on any property adjoining or in the immediate vicinity of the Premises that would cause the property to be subject to the restrictions on ownership, occupancy, transferability or use under any Environmental Laws; and (v) upon obtaining knowledge of any incurrence of expense by a Governmental Authority or others in connection with the assessment, containment or removal of any Hazardous Substances located on, under, from or about the Premises or any property adjoining or in the vicinity of the Premises.
b. If a Governmental Authority initiates an action, order, claim, cause of action, investigation or request for information in connection with any Hazardous Substance with respect to this Lease, Tenant will cooperate fully in good faith with Landlord and such Governmental Authority in responding to any such action, order, claim, cause of action, investigation or request for information. If, during the term of this Lease, Hazardous Substances are discovered on the Premises that resulted from the acts or omissions of Tenant or any of the

7



Tenant Parties, or other third parties, in violation of any Environmental Laws, Tenant will at its sole expense, remove, or cause to be removed, such Hazardous Substances from the Premises and underlying groundwater in accordance with the requirements of the appropriate Governmental Authority. If the Hazardous Substances not otherwise permitted under this Lease are not removed within ninety (90) days of discovery, or such time as required by a Governmental Authority, then Landlord will have the right, but not the obligation, to do so and seek reimbursement of all costs and expenses therefor from Tenant or to declare a default under this Lease, or both.
16.      Landlord’s Reserved Rights.
a. Landlord reserves the right, at any time and from time to time, to make such use of the Premises as it may desire and at its sole discretion, including, without limitation, the following:  (1) to conduct any and all operations in connection with, or incidental to, its operations on, under, or across the Premises; and (2) to manage the Premises and the resources thereon including, without limitation, management of the land, and water resources, to conduct surveys, to grant easements or rights of way for any purposes, to drill, construct, operate and maintain water wells, pipelines, powerlines, transmission lines, telecommunication lines, roads including public access roads to the public or other adjoining lands, building and any other facilities, to make repairs, improvements and changes to the Premises, whether or not beneficial to Tenant. Landlord will have the right of ingress and egress in and to the Premises in connection with the foregoing. In the exercise by Landlord of the foregoing rights, Landlord will use its best efforts not to unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s regular and permitted use of the Premises. However, Landlord will not in any event be liable for inconvenience, annoyance, disturbance or other damage to Tenant by reason of the exercise of the foregoing rights or any other rights of Landlord to enter into or use the Premises, and the obligations of Tenant under this Lease will not be affected in any manner.
b. Landlord will also have the right to sell or otherwise dispose of the Premises during the term of this Lease, provided any purchaser or other entity in which title is vested will assume Landlord’s obligations under this Lease.
c. Tenant will cooperate with Landlord in the coordination of Landlord’s uses of the Premises. Landlord, its officers, employees, agents and representatives, may enter the Premises at reasonable times for any purpose, including, without limitation, inspection of the condition of the Premises and of any activities or operations conducted by Tenant.
17.      Liability and Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Tenant will indemnify, release, defend, protect and hold Landlord, its past, present and future corporate parents, subsidiaries and affiliates, and each of their past, current and future officers, directors, shareholders, employees and agents, and each of their respective successors and assigns (collectively, “ Indemnitees ”), harmless for, from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, lawsuits, agency orders, attorneys’ fees, costs, expenses, fines, penalties or response costs asserted against any Indemnitee by any entity or individual, arising out of or in connection with (i) the use of the Premises by Tenant or Tenant Parties; (ii) a violation of any Environmental Law by Tenant or Tenant Parties, excluding violations for pre-existing conditions; (iii) a violation or breach of any provision of this Lease by Tenant or Tenant Parties. To the extent not expressly prohibited by any applicable non-indemnity statutes, Tenant’s

8



foregoing obligation of full indemnity will arise regardless of Landlord’s fault or negligence concerning the claimed injury. If, in the judgment of the Landlord, Tenant is incapable of defending, or unwilling to defend, the relevant Indemnitee(s) against such claims or fail to defend the relevant Indemnitee(s) against such claims in a manner Landlord deems appropriate, Landlord will be entitled to appear in any action or proceeding to defend the relevant Indemnitee(s) against such claims, and Tenant will reimburse Landlord for all costs incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses, within ten (10) days after demand therefor. Landlord, at its sole option, will be entitled to settle or compromise any claim asserted against it, and such settlement will be binding upon Tenant for purposes of the foregoing indemnification; provided, however, that Tenant may settle or compromise any such claim, or decide not to settle or compromise any such claim, as long as all Indemnitees are fully released from any and all liability thereon. The provisions contained in this Section will survive the termination of this Lease.
18.      Insurance.
(a) Insurance Policies . Tenant, at its expense, will procure and maintain the insurance policies (the “Policies” ) and minimum aggregate limits described on Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. Tenant will cause that all policies obtained with respect to the Premises designate Landlord as an additional insured and contain an endorsement providing that written notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, will be given by the insurer to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to termination, cancellation, non-renewal or modification or reduction of coverage of any policy. Upon execution hereof, Tenant will provide Landlord with a copy of the insurance policies.
(b)      Form of Insurance. The aforesaid insurance will be in companies and in form, substance and amount (where not stated above) satisfactory to Landlord. All said policies will contain the following endorsements or provisions:

(i)      That the aforesaid policies will not be subject to cancellation except after at least thirty (30) days prior to written notice to Landlord;

(ii)      That the Landlord has been named as an Additional Insured under the policies required by this Section 18 with respect to the coverages afforded;

(iii)      To the extent that Tenant and Landlord are no longer under common control, that the Policies are primary over any insurance procured or maintained by Landlord, and that the Policies will not be limited, reduced or eliminated by the existence of any insurance maintained or procured by Landlord.

Certificates of the Policies satisfactory to Landlord together with satisfactory evidence of payment of premiums thereon, will be deposited with Landlord at the Commencement Date.

(c)      Proof of Insurance. Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord and its employees and agents to request from the insurance agent indicated by Tenant written or oral proof of the insurance required to be provided and maintained by Tenant under the terms of this Lease and to inquire as to Tenant’s performance of any other matters required to be performed or provided by Tenant under the terms of this Lease. Any such request or inquiry may be made to any

9



agency, agent, person or firm which Landlord reasonably believes may be providing, in any capacity, insurance coverage for or on behalf of Tenant as to the Premises. Landlord hereby requests Tenant advise Landlord of Tenant’s insurance agent and carrier, and all changes in the same, in order that Landlord may contact the appropriate persons. This authorization will continue for the terms of this Lease, as extended or renewed.

19. Delivery of Possession. Upon the termination of this Lease, Tenant covenants and agrees to surrender and deliver up possession of the Premises peacefully and immediately to Landlord. Tenant will do the following by the Termination Date: (1) remove any of Tenant’s personal property from the Premises, and (2) restore the Premises to good order and condition as that existing on the Commencement Date, provided that Tenant shall not be obligated to remove or demolish the Improvements which upon termination shall become the property of Landlord. Any personal property of Tenant not removed from the Premises within the time period specified by Landlord will, at the option of Landlord, become the property of Landlord without compensation, or Landlord may cause such property to be removed and charge the expense of removal to Tenant, which expense Tenant hereby agrees to pay. All other property or improvements, whether or not owned or constructed by Tenant, will be deemed to be the property of Landlord. If Tenant fails to restore the Premises as provided above, Landlord may restore it and charge the cost of restoration to Tenant, which cost Tenant agrees to pay.
20.      Condemnation.
(a)      Taking of Whole. If (i) the whole of the Premises is taken or condemned for a public or quasi-public use or purpose by a competent authority, or (ii) if such a portion of the Premises is taken that as a result thereof the balance cannot be used for the same purpose and with substantially the same utility to Tenant as immediately prior to such taking, or (iii) if the taking is material and substantial and either Landlord or Tenant elects to terminate the Lease, which election will be made by giving written notice thereof to the other party within thirty (30) days after delivery of possession to the condemning authority, then in any of such events, the Lease term will terminate upon delivery of possession to the condemning authority, and any award, compensation or damages as compensation for diminution of the value of this Leasehold estate hereunder or the fee of the Premises (hereinafter sometimes called the “Award” ) will be paid to and be the property of the Landlord. Any compensation award for damages to Tenant’s personal property or business enterprise will be and remain the property of the Tenant. Tenant will continue to pay rent and other charges hereunder until this Lease is terminated.

(b)      Partial Taking. If only a part of the Premises will be so taken or condemned, but this Lease is not terminated pursuant to Section 20(a) hereof, Tenant will repair and restore the Premises and all improvements located on the Premises. If the size or the utility of the Premises is reduced as a result of the taking, the rent will be proportionately reduced because of such taking or condemnation.

(b)
Tenant may mortgage its interest in this Lease or any part thereof under any first or other leasehold mortgage, and upon Landlord being notified of the making of any such mortgage Landlord agrees that (i) as a result of any default there shall be no cancellation, amendment or termination of this Lease by joint action of Landlord and Tenant without first providing the secured party an opportunity to satisfy said default in a reasonable time, (ii) Landlord will give any secured party simultaneous notice of any default and such party will have the same period after service of such notice to remedy the default and Landlord will accept such performance as if the same had been done by Tenant, and (iii) Landlord will execute any agreement acknowledging the above rights of any secured party and granting to such party reasonable notice of any default hereunder and an opportunity to cure the same as may be requested by Tenant.

22. Tenant Default; Landlord Remedies.

Landlord shall in no event be liable or responsible for any cessation or interruption in, or damage caused by, any utility services

12



provided to the Premises, whether by Landlord or otherwise, unless the cessation or interruption results from Landlord’s intentional misconduct or gross negligence.
24.      Maintenance. Tenant will keep and maintain the Premises in good condition and repair, Tenant will be solely responsible for items of maintenance and repair to the Premises occasioned by Tenant’s own negligent act or omission or the acts of any employee, agent, invitee or contractor of Tenant. In the event of Tenant’s failure to perform any of Tenant’s maintenance and repair responsibilities and such failure or nonperformance will continue for a period of thirty (30) days from the date Landlord notifies Tenant of the need for such repair, then, in that event, Landlord will have the right to effect such repairs, at Tenant’s expense, and the cost thereof will be due upon demand by Landlord.
25.      Holdover . Should Tenant remain in possession of the Premises after the Termination Date, Tenant will be deemed to be occupying the Premises as a month-to-month tenant, and Tenant hereby agrees to pay, in advance on the first day of each month, monthly rent equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual rent that is applicable on the last day of the term of this Lease.
26.      Severability. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease will not affect the enforceability of any other provision of this Lease.
