(d) Written Claim. Neither Party shall be obligated to indemnify the other Party or be liable to the other Party unless a written claim for indemnity is delivered to the other Party within ninety (90) days after the date that a Claim is reported or discovered, whichever is earlier.

(e) No Limitation. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, the scope of these indemnity provisions may not be altered, restricted, limited, or changed by any other provision of this Agreement. The indemnity obligations of the Parties as set out in this Section 19 are independent of any insurance requirements as set out in Section 23, and such indemnity obligations shall not be lessened or extinguished by reason of a Party’s failure to obtain the required insurance coverages or by any defenses asserted by a Party’s insurers.

(f) Mutual and Express Acknowledgement. THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS PROVIDED FOR IN THIS AGREEMENT HAVE BEEN EXPRESSLY NEGOTIATED IN EVERY DETAIL, ARE INTENDED TO BE GIVEN FULL AND LITERAL EFFECT, AND SHALL BE APPLICABLE WHETHER OR NOT THE LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, CLAIMS, JUDGMENTS, LOSSES, COSTS, EXPENSES OR DAMAGES IN QUESTION ARISE OR AROSE SOLELY OR IN PART FROM THE GROSS, ACTIVE, PASSIVE OR CONCURRENT NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR OTHER FAULT OF ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS STATEMENT COMPLIES WITH THE EXPRESS NEGLIGENCE RULE AND CONSTITUTES CONSPICUOUS NOTICE. NOTICE IN THIS CONSPICUOUS NOTICE IS NOT INTENDED TO PROVIDE OR ALTER THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES, ALL OF WHICH ARE SPECIFIED ELSEWHERE IN THIS AGREEMENT.

(g) Survival. These indemnity obligations shall survive the termination of this Agreement until all applicable statutes of limitation have run regarding any Claims that could be made with respect to the activities contemplated by this Agreement.

(h) Third Party Indemnification. If any Party has the rights to indemnification from a third party, the indemnifying party under this Agreement shall have the right of subrogation with respect to any amounts received from such third-party indemnification claim.

SECTION 20 DEFAULT

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

(i) the Party breaches any provision of this Agreement, a Terminal Service Order or any of the Related Agreements, which breach has a material adverse effect on the other Party, and such breach is not excused by Force Majeure or cured within fifteen (15) Business Days after notice thereof (which notice shall describe such breach in reasonable detail) is received by such Party (unless such failure is not commercially reasonably capable of being cured in such fifteen (15) Business Day period in which case such Party shall have commenced remedial action to cure such breach and shall continue to diligently and timely pursue the completion of such remedial action after such notice); or

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

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

(c) Obligation to Cure Breach. If a Party breaches any provision of this Agreement, a Terminal Service Order or a Related Agreement, which breach does not have a material adverse effect on the other Party, the breaching Party shall still have the obligation to cure such breach.

(d) Cumulative Nature of Remedies. The remedies of TRMC and Operator provided for in this Agreement shall not be exclusive, but shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to all other remedies at law or in equity.

XXXXXXX 00 XXXXX XXXXXXX

If a Party is unable to perform or is delayed in performing, in whole or in part, its obligations under this Agreement, other than the obligation to pay funds when due as a result of an event of Force Majeure at the Anacortes Marine Terminal or the Ancillary Facilities, then that Party shall promptly notify the other Party of the event of Force Majeure with reasonably full particulars and timing of such event. Such Party also shall promptly notify the other Party when the event of Force Majeure terminates or no longer adversely affects its ability to perform under this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order. The obligations of the Party giving notice, so far as they are affected by the event of Force Majeure, shall be suspended during, but not longer than, the continuance of the Force Majeure event. The affected Party must act with commercially reasonable diligence to resume performance, but it shall not be required to expend funds to settle strikes, lockouts or other labor difficulty. A Party’s inability economically to perform its obligations hereunder does not constitute an event of Force Majeure. If Operator is excused from providing services due to an event of Force Majeure, other than any fees that are already due and payable hereunder, any other fees incurred by TRMC during the event of Force Majeure shall be excused or proportionately reduced, as appropriate, for so long as Operator’s performance is so excused due to the event of Force Majeure. In the event the Anacortes Marine Terminal or any part thereof is destroyed or damaged to such extent as to make them unusable, then the Parties shall consult and, subject to the terms and provisions of the Master Lease, may elect whether or not to repair, replace, or rebuild. An event of Force Majeure shall not extend the term of this Agreement. If an event of Force Majeure materially affects either Party’s performance under this Agreement and exists with respect to the Anacortes Marine Terminal or the Ancillary Facilities for twelve (12) Months, then either Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement without further costs or obligation to the other Party.

SECTION 22 ASSIGNMENT

(a) As of the Commencement Date, the General Partner shall assign all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to the Partnership. The Partnership shall immediately assign its rights and obligations hereunder to Operator. Upon such assignment to Operator, Operator shall have all of the respective rights and obligations set forth herein during the Term of this Agreement. (Nothing in this Section 22(a) shall affect Operator’s covenants set forth in Section 5(a)(i) of this Agreement.)

(b) TRMC shall not transfer, assign, or convey its interests hereunder, in whole or in part, to a third party without the written consent of the Operator, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Operator may assign its interest hereunder without consent from TRMC to any subsidiary or

affiliated company. Operator shall be permitted to make a collateral assignment of this Agreement solely to secure working capital financing for Operator. TRMC may assign its interest hereunder without consent from Operator to any subsidiary or affiliated company or any purchaser of the Refinery, provided that such purchaser meets acceptable credit standards to be determined in Operator’s commercially reasonable discretion. A Party making a permitted assignment shall notify the other Party in writing at least ten (10) days prior to the effective date of such assignment.

SECTION 23 INSURANCE

(a) Insurance Required by Operator. Operator shall be required to carry at least the minimum level of insurance required pursuant to the Master Lease, except for casualty insurance with regard to the Anacortes Marine Terminal which shall remain the sole responsibility of TRMC.

(b) Insurance Required by TRMC. TRMC shall obtain at its sole cost and expense and shall carry and maintain in full force and effect, and cause its carriers, contractors, agents and representatives (collectively the “TRMC Insurance Group”) to obtain and maintain, insurance coverages with insurance companies rated not less than A-, IX by A.M. Best or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Operator of the following types and amounts:

(i) Workers’ Compensation.

(2) Bodily injury by disease – $1,000,000 each employee; and

(3) Bodily injury by disease – $1,000,000 policy limit.

(iii) Commercial Automobile. Commercial Automobile Liability Insurance covering each vehicle whether owned, non-owned, hired, operated, or used by TRMC and/or any member of the TRMC Insurance Group while in, on or adjacent to the Anacortes Marine Terminal, with a combined single limit of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) for bodily injury and property damage as to any one accident, including an MCS-90 endorsement.

(iv) Commercial General Liability. Commercial General Liability Insurance including coverages for contractual liability, third-party personal injury liability, and sudden and accidental pollution, with limits of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence.

Such insurance shall be endorsed to include navigation limits sufficient to cover all work locations and collision and tower’s liability with the Sistership Clause unamended.

(ii) Protection & Indemnity. Protection and Indemnity Insurance provided through any combination of (1) full entry with a Protection and Indemnity Club; and/or (2) policy(ies) with a commercial insurance company(ies) or underwriters syndicate(s) with terms no less broad than those customarily carried by similar marine carriers with a limit of not less than one billion dollars ($1,000,000,000). Such Protection and Indemnity insurance shall include coverage for injury to or death of master, mates, and crew; tower’s liability; excess collision liability; cargo legal liability; pollution liability; and contractual liability.

(iii) Certificate of Financial Responsibility (Water Pollution). Marine carriers are required to provide to Operator a current and valid Certificate of Financial Responsibility (Water Pollution) for its vessel(s) and as required by a Terminal Service Order prior to arrival at the Anacortes Marine Terminal. Evidence of all required insurance coverages for marine carriers must be received by Operator’s marine scheduler before approval to berth at the Anacortes Marine Terminal will be granted or before authorization to enter the Anacortes Marine Terminal area will be given, whichever is earlier.

(d) Certificates of Insurance; Endorsements. Excluding insurance for TRMC’s marine carriers, TRMC shall cause the Operator Group (as defined above) to be named as an additional insured on all policies of insurance secured by TRMC and the members of the TRMC Group in accordance with this Agreement. TRMC shall furnish Operator with certificates of insurance evidencing this coverage. All policies shall be endorsed to provide that no material change or cancellation of the coverage shall occur until Operator has received thirty (30) days written notice. TRMC hereby waives, and shall cause its insurers and those of the TRMC Insurance Group to also waive any right of subrogation that they may have against the Operator or the Operator Group. All insurance coverage required hereunder shall be primary to, and not in excess of or contributory with, any insurance that may be maintained by Operator.

(e) Self-Insurance. Subject to Operator’s review and approval, which will not be unreasonably withheld, TRMC may self-insure the Commercial General Liability Insurance requirements set forth in Section 23(b)(iv). Operator reserves the right, at Operator’s discretion, to periodically review TRMC’s financial means to meet the TRMC Insurance Group insurance requirements included herein by self-insurance. If Operator reasonably determines that TRMC cannot meet the insurance obligations included herein by self-insurance, Operator may require TRMC to obtain and maintain insurance coverages for requirements as provided in this Section 23 with insurance companies rated not less than A-, IX by A.M. Best or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Operator. The self-insurance shall protect the indemnified parties in the same manner and to the same extent as they would have been protected had the policy or policies not been self-insured, contained a self-insured retention or deductible.

SECTION 26 CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

(a) Confidential Information and Exceptions Thereto. 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 26. Each Party further agrees to take the same care with the other Party’s Confidential Information as it does with its own, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care. Excepted from these obligations of confidence and non-use is that information which:

(i) is available, or becomes available, to the general public without fault of the receiving Party;

(ii) was in the possession of the receiving Party on a non-confidential basis prior to receipt of the same from the disclosing Party (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that this exception shall not apply to information of Operator that was in the possession of TRMC or any of its affiliates as a result of their ownership or operation of the Anacortes Marine Terminal prior to the Commencement Date);

(iii) is obtained by the receiving Party without an obligation of confidence from a third party who is rightfully in possession of such information and, to the receiving Party’s knowledge, is under no obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing Party; or

(iv) is independently developed by the receiving Party without reference to or use of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.

For the purpose of this Section 26, a specific item of Confidential Information shall not be deemed to be within the foregoing exceptions merely because it is embraced by, or underlies, more general information in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party.

(b) Required Disclosure. Notwithstanding Section 26(a) above, if the receiving Party becomes legally compelled to disclose the Confidential Information by a court, Governmental Authority or Applicable Law, or is required to disclose by the listing standards of any applicable securities exchange, any of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, the receiving Party shall promptly advise the disclosing Party of such requirement to disclose Confidential Information as soon as the receiving Party becomes aware that such a requirement to disclose might become effective, in order that, where possible, the disclosing Party may seek a protective order or such other remedy as the disclosing Party may consider appropriate in the circumstances. The receiving Party shall disclose only that portion of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information that it is required to disclose and shall cooperate with the disclosing Party in allowing the disclosing Party to obtain such protective order or other relief.

(c) Return of Confidential Information. Upon written request by the disclosing Party, all of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in whatever form shall be returned to the disclosing Party upon termination of this Agreement or destroyed with destruction certified by the receiving Party, without the receiving Party retaining copies thereof except that one copy of all such Confidential Information may be retained by a Party’s legal department solely to the extent that such Party is required to keep a copy of such Confidential Information pursuant to Applicable Law, and the receiving Party shall be entitled to retain any Confidential Information in the electronic form or stored on automatic computer back-up archiving systems during the period such backup or archived materials are retained under such Party’s customary procedures and policies; provided, however, that any Confidential Information retained by the receiving Party shall be maintained subject to confidentiality pursuant to the terms of this Section 26, and such archived or back-up Confidential Information shall not be accessed except as required by Applicable Law.

(d) Receiving Party Personnel. The receiving Party will limit access to the Confidential Information of the disclosing Party to those of its employees, attorneys and contractors that have a need to know such information in order for the receiving Party to exercise or perform its rights and obligations under this Agreement (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 provisions of this Section 26 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for two (2) years.

SECTION 27 SAFE BERTH

Operator shall exercise due diligence to provide a berth which the nominated Marine Vessels accepted by the Operator can safely reach and leave and at which the Marine Vessel can lie, load, and discharge always safely afloat; provided however, Operator makes no representation or warranty regarding the safety of any channel, anchorage or other waterway used in approaching or departing from the designated berth; provided, however, that Operator shall ensure that TRMC and any of TRMC’s accepted Marine Vessels are immediately notified of any changes in water depth that affect the stated draft maximum at mean lower low water as set forth in an applicable Terminal Service Order.

SECTION 28 MISCELLANEOUS

(a) Modification; Waiver. This Agreement and any Terminal Service Order may be amended or modified only by a written instrument executed by the Parties. Any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any Terminal Service Ordert may be waived in writing at any time by the Party entitled to the benefits thereof. No waiver of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any Terminal Service Order 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 or any Terminal Service Order 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.

(b) Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Exhibits and Terminal Service Orders and the other agreements executed or to be executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings of the Parties in connection therewith. In the event of a conflict of provisions of this Agreement and the Omnibus Agreement, the provisions of the Omnibus Agreement shall prevail with respect to issues related to the contribution of the assets described therein, but not with respect to the ordinary operations of such assets as set forth in this Agreement.

(c) Construction and Interpretation. In interpreting this Agreement, unless the context expressly requires otherwise, all of the following apply to the interpretation of this Agreement:

(i) Preparation of this Agreement has been a joint effort of the Parties and the resulting Agreement shall not be interpreted against one of the Parties as the drafting Party.

(ii) Plural and singular words each include the other.

(iii) Masculine, feminine and neutral genders each include the others.

(iv) The word “or” is not exclusive and includes “and/or.”

(v) The words “includes” and “including” are not limiting.

(vi) References to the Parties include their respective successors and permitted assignees.

(vii) The headings in this Agreement are included for convenience and do not affect the construction or interpretation of any provision of, or the rights or obligations of a Party under, this Agreement.

(d) Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas without giving effect to its conflict of laws principles; provided that any issues or claims arising out of the terms and conditions of the Master Lease, or rules and regulations of the Washington Department of Natural Resources will be governed by the laws of the State of Washington. Each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal court of competent jurisdiction situated in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas, San Antonio Division, or if such federal court declines to exercise or does not have jurisdiction, in the District Court of Bexar County, Texas. The Parties expressly and irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of said courts and irrevocably waive any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this agreement brought in such courts, irrevocably waive any claim that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum and further irrevocably waive the right to object, with respect to such claim, action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court, that such court does not have jurisdiction over such Party. The Parties hereby irrevocably consent to the service of process by registered mail, postage prepaid, or by personal service within or without the State of Texas. Nothing contained herein shall affect the right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.

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

(f) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement 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.

(g) Independent Contractor. Operator’s relationship to TRMC hereunder shall be that of an independent contractor. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to make Operator or any of its employees, an agent, associate, joint venturer or partner of TRMC.

(h) No Public Use. Operator’s services hereunder shall not be deemed those of a public utility or common carrier. If any action is taken or threatened to declare these services a public use, then, upon notifying TRMC, Operator may restructure and restate this Agreement.

(i) No Bonded Services. Operator is not providing a U.S. Customs bonded warehouse service.

(j) No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly set forth herein, including as set forth in Section 19, it is expressly understood that the provisions of this Agreement do not impart enforceable rights in anyone who is not a Party or successor or permitted assignee of a Party.

(k) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDINGS RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY PERFORMANCE OF OR FAILURE TO PERFORM ANY OBLIGATION HEREUNDER.
