ARTICLE IV.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES RELATING TO PURCHASERS

Each Purchaser hereby, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to the GPM Parties that:

4.1 Organization and Existence.

(a) Purchaser has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and has all requisite power and authority (corporate and other) to own, lease and operate the properties and assets it now owns, leases and operates and to carry on its business as and where such properties and assets are now owned or held and such business is now conducted.

(b) Purchaser is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing as a foreign entity in each other jurisdiction in which such qualification is required for the conduct of its business, except where the failure to so qualify or to be in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to have a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect.

4.2 Authority and Approval; Enforceability. Purchaser has the requisite power and authority (corporate and other) to execute and deliver each Transaction Document to which it is or will be a party, to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby and to perform all the terms and conditions thereof to be performed by it. The execution and delivery by Purchaser of each Transaction Document to which it is or will be a party, the performance by Purchaser of the terms and conditions thereof to be performed by it and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly authorized and approved by all requisite corporate action of Purchaser. Each Transaction Document to which Purchaser is or will be a party constitutes or will constitute, upon execution and delivery by Purchaser, the valid and binding obligation of Purchaser, enforceable against Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (whether applied in a proceeding at law or in equity).

4.3 No Conflict. Other than as set forth on Schedule 4.3, the execution and delivery by Purchaser of each Transaction Document to which it is or will be a party do not, and the fulfillment and compliance with the terms and conditions thereof and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby will not:

(a) conflict with any of the provisions of the Organizational Documents of Purchaser; or

(b) conflict with any provision of any Law or Order applicable to Purchaser;

except, in the case of clause (b), as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to have a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect.

4.4 Consents. Other than as set forth in Schedule 4.4 (each item so listed, a “Purchaser Consent”), no Governmental Approval or Third Party Consent is required to be obtained or made by or with respect to Purchaser in connection with:

(a) the execution, delivery, and performance of any of the Transaction Documents or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby; or

(b) the enforcement against Purchaser of its obligations under any of the Transaction Documents;

except, in each case, as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to have a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect.

4.5 Brokerage Arrangements. Neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates has entered, directly or indirectly, into any Contract with any Person that would obligate GPM or any of its Affiliates or any member of the Partnership Group to pay any commission, brokerage or “finder’s fee” or other fee in connection with the Transaction Documents or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby.

4.6 Compliance with Laws; Litigation. No Litigation is pending to which Purchaser is a party that if adversely decided would, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to have a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect.

4.7 Investment. Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 promulgated under the Securities Act. Purchaser is acquiring the Purchased Units for its own account and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution thereof or any other security related thereto within the meaning of the Securities Act. Purchaser is familiar with investments of the nature of the Purchased Units, understands that this investment involves substantial risks, has adequately investigated the Partnership and the Purchased Units, and has substantial knowledge and experience in financial and business matters such that it is capable of evaluating, and has evaluated, the merits and risks inherent in purchasing the Purchased Units, and is able to bear the economic risks of such investment. Purchaser has had the opportunity to visit with the Partnership and meet with the officers of the General Partner and other representatives to discuss the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition, and operations of the Partnership, has received all materials, documents and other information that Purchaser deems necessary or advisable to evaluate the Partnership and the Purchased Units, and has made its own independent examination, investigation, analysis and evaluation of the Partnership and the Purchased Units, including its own estimate of the value of the Purchased Units. Purchaser has undertaken such due diligence (including a review of the properties, liabilities, books, records and contracts of the Partnership) as Purchaser deems adequate; provided, however, that neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted at any time by the Purchaser and its representatives shall modify, amend or affect such Purchaser’s right (i) to rely on the representations and warranties contained in Article III or (ii) to indemnification or any other remedy based on, or with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of, or compliance with, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in any Transaction Document. Purchaser acknowledges that the Purchased Units have not been registered under applicable federal and state securities laws and that the Purchased Units may not be sold, transferred, offered for sale,

pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of unless such transfer, sale, assignment, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition is registered under applicable federal and state securities laws or pursuant to an exemption from registration under any federal or state securities laws. Purchaser understands that, until such time as the Purchased Units are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, the Purchased Units will bear a restrictive legend as provided in the Amended and Restated LPA. For the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser disclaims and disavows any reliance upon the Financial Advisor in connection with its acquisition of the Purchased Units.

4.8 Available Funds. Purchaser will have at Closing sufficient cash to make payment in immediately available funds of its pro rata portion of the Aggregate Purchase Price when due and any other amounts to be paid by it hereunder.

4.9 No Other Representations or Warranties; Schedules. Except as set forth in this Article IV, Purchaser does not make any other express or implied representation or warranty with respect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and disclaims any other representations or warranties. The disclosure of any matter or item in any schedule to this Agreement shall not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgment that any such matter is required to be disclosed.

From the date of this Agreement until the Closing Date, GPM shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to, upon reasonable advance notice by Purchasers, furnish to Purchasers such documents and information in the possession or control of GPM or its Affiliates concerning the Restructuring, the Contribution, the Partnership Entities, the Business and the Acquired Assets as Purchasers from time to time may reasonably request, but only to the extent that GPM may comply with the foregoing without breaching any confidentiality obligation binding on GPM or its Affiliates.

INDEMNIFICATION

8.1 Indemnification by the Partnership.

(a) From and after the Closing Date, subject to the other provisions of this Article VIII, the Partnership shall indemnify and hold Purchasers and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives (together with Purchasers, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any and all Damages suffered by the Purchaser Indemnitees as a result of, caused by, arising out of, or in any way relating to:

(i) any breach of a representation or warranty of any of the GPM Parties in this Agreement, in the GPM Closing Certificate or in the Partnership Closing Certificate; or

(ii) any breach of any agreement or covenant in this Agreement on the part of any of the GPM Parties.

8.2 Indemnification by Purchasers.

(a) From and after the Closing Date, subject to the other provisions of this Article VIII, each Purchaser shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold the GPM Parties and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives (together with the GPM Parties, the “GPM Indemnitees” and, together with the Purchaser Indemnitees, the “Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any and all Damages suffered by the GPM Indemnitees as a result of, caused by, arising out of, or in any way relating to:

(i) any breach of a representation or warranty of Purchaser in this Agreement or in the Purchaser Closing Certificate; or

(ii) any breach of any agreement or covenant in this Agreement on the part of Purchaser.

8.3 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) Each Indemnitee agrees that promptly after it becomes aware of facts giving rise to a claim by it for indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII, including receipt by it of notice of any Proceeding, by any third party with respect to any matter as to which it claims

to be entitled to indemnity under the provisions of this Agreement, such Indemnitee must assert its claim for indemnification under this Article VIII (each, a “Claim”) by providing a written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the indemnifying party allegedly required to provide indemnification protection under this Article VIII specifying, in reasonable detail, the nature and basis for such Claim (e.g., the underlying representation, warranty, covenant or agreement alleged to have been breached). Such notice shall include a demand for indemnification under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnitee’s failure to send or delay in sending a third party Claim Notice will not relieve the indemnifying party from liability hereunder with respect to such Claim except to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced by such failure or delay and except as is otherwise provided herein. Except as specifically provided herein, each Indemnitee’s rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement will survive the Closing.

(b) In the event of the assertion of any third party Claim for which, by the terms hereof, an Indemnitee seeks indemnification from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will have the right, at such indemnifying party’s expense, to assume the defense of same including the appointment and selection of counsel on behalf of the Indemnitee so long as such counsel is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee. If the indemnifying party elects to assume the defense of any such third party Claim, it shall within twenty (20) Business Days of its receipt of the Claim Notice notify the Indemnitee in writing of its intent to do so. Any such contest may be conducted in the name and on behalf of the indemnifying party or the Indemnitee as may be appropriate. The indemnifying party will have the right to settle or compromise or take any corrective or remediation action with respect to any such Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings will be prosecuted by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or settled at the discretion of the indemnifying party. The Indemnitee will be entitled, at its own cost, to participate with the indemnifying party in the defense of any such Claim. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of any such third-party Claim but fails to reasonably prosecute such Claim, or if the indemnifying party does not assume the defense of any such Claim, the Indemnitee may assume control of such defense and in the event it is determined pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Article VIII that the Claim was a matter for which the indemnifying party is required to provide indemnification under the terms of this Article VIII, the indemnifying party will bear the reasonable costs and expenses of such defense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses).

(c) If requested by the indemnifying party, the Indemnitee agrees to cooperate with the indemnifying party and its counsel in contesting any third party Claim that the indemnifying party elects to contest or, if appropriate, in making any counterclaim against the person asserting the third party Claim, or any cross-complaint against any person, and the indemnifying party will reimburse the Indemnitee for reasonable expenses incurred by it in so cooperating. At no cost or expense to the Indemnitee, the indemnifying party shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnitee and its counsel in contesting any third party Claim.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the indemnifying party will not be permitted to settle, compromise, take any corrective or remedial action or enter into an agreed judgment or consent decree, in each case, that subjects the Indemnitee to any injunctive or other non-monetary relief or any criminal liability, requires an admission of guilt or wrongdoing on the part of the Indemnitee or imposes any continuing obligation on or requires any payment from the Indemnitee without the Indemnitee’s prior written consent.

8.4 Calculation of Damages. In calculating amounts payable to an Indemnitee for a claim for indemnification hereunder, the amount of any indemnified Damages shall be determined without duplication of any other Damages for which an indemnification claim has been made or could be made under any other representation, warranty, covenant or agreement and shall be computed net of (i) payments actually recovered under any insurance policy with respect to such Damages or (ii) any prior or subsequent actual recovery from any Person other than the applicable indemnifying party with respect to such Damages.

8.5 Waiver of Certain Damages. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in no event shall any Party be liable pursuant to this Article VIII for punitive, special, indirect, consequential, remote, speculative or lost profits Damages of any kind or nature, including any Damages based on diminution in value or any other damages based on a multiple of earnings or other multiple, regardless of the form of action through which such damages are sought, except (a) for any such damages recovered by any third party against an indemnified party in respect of which such indemnified party would otherwise be entitled to indemnification pursuant to the terms hereof and (b) in the case of consequential damages, (i) to the extent an indemnified party is required to pay consequential damages to an unrelated third party and (ii) to the extent of consequential damages to an indemnified party arising from fraud or willful misconduct.

8.6 Limitations on Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this agreement, in no event shall the Partnership’s aggregate liability for Damages under this Agreement exceed $70,000,000, excluding the Partnership’s liability for Damages resulting from, caused by, arising out of, or in any way relating to any breach of the Partnership Fundamental Representations, which liability shall be unlimited.

8.7 Survival.

(a) The liability of the Partnership for the breach of any of the representations and warranties of the Partnership set forth in Article III other than the Partnership Fundamental Representations and the matters set forth in Section 3.13 (Taxes) shall be limited to claims for which Purchasers deliver written notice to the Partnership on or before the date that is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date. The liability of the Partnership for the breach of any Partnership Fundamental Representations shall be limited to claims for which Purchasers deliver written notice to the Partnership on or before the date that is three (3) years after the Closing Date. The liability of the Partnership for Damages for claims related to or arising from Taxes (including Damages for claims for breach of covenants or breach of the representations or warranties in Section 3.13) shall be limited to claims for which Purchasers deliver written notice to the Partnership on or before the date that is sixty (60) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations for assessment of the applicable Tax. The liability of the Partnership for claims pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(ii) shall not be limited as to time and shall continue indefinitely.

(b) The liability of a Purchaser for the breach of any of the representations and warranties of such Purchaser set forth in Article IV other than the Purchaser Fundamental Representations shall be limited to claims for which the GPM Parties deliver written notice to such Purchaser on or before the date that is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date. The liability of a Purchaser for the breach of any Purchaser Fundamental Representations shall be limited to claims for which the GPM Parties deliver written notice to such Purchaser on or before the date that is three (3) years after the Closing Date. The liability of a Purchaser for claims pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(ii) shall not be limited as to time and shall continue indefinitely.

(c) Notwithstanding Sections 8.6(a) and 8.7(b), if any GPM Party or the Purchasers, as applicable, delivers written notice in reasonable detail to the applicable Party of a claim for indemnification on or prior to the applicable expiration date for such claim, such claim shall survive until finally resolved.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Party shall have any liability under this Article VIII from and after the IPO Closing Date (as defined in the Amended and Restated LPA).

8.8 Mitigation. The Parties agree that an Indemnitee’s right to recourse under this Article VIII for any Damages shall be limited to the extent that such Indemnitee would not have suffered such Damages had such Indemnitee exercised commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate such Damages following the actual discovery by such Indemnitee of the fact, event or circumstance giving rise to such Damages.

8.9 Sole Remedy. After the Closing, no Party shall have liability under this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby except as is provided in this Article VIII (other than claims or causes of action arising from fraud, and other than claims for specific performance or claims arising under any Transaction Documents (other than this Agreement) (which claims shall be subject to the liability provisions of such Transaction Documents)).

8.10 Consideration Adjustment. The Parties agree to treat all payments made pursuant to this Article VIII as adjustments to the amount of the Aggregate Purchase Price, except as otherwise required by applicable Law.
