The Cash Component shall be delivered to Contributors by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in United States dollars, to such bank account or accounts as set forth in Exhibit E (the “Wiring Instructions”). The Partnership shall cause the Transfer Agent to deliver the Partnership Interests to Contributors in accordance with the Transfer Agent Instruction Letter. The Cash Component shall be allocated among Contributors as set forth in the Wiring Instructions and the Partnership Interests shall be allocated among Contributors as set forth in the Transfer Agent Instruction Letter.

(b) Subject to adjustment as set forth in this Section 2.01, the “Cash Component” shall be calculated as follows:

(i) forty-six million, twenty-two thousand, eight hundred twenty dollars and fifty-six cents ($46,022,820.56); minus

(ii) the Estimated Closing Debt; minus

(iii) the Estimated Transaction Fees and Expenses; minus

(iv) the Pre-Closing Operating Revenue.

(c) Attached as Exhibit F is a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) that sets forth Contributors’ good faith estimate of the Cash Component, including their good faith calculations of (i) the aggregate amount of any Debt of Midstream that is not paid in conjunction with Closing (the “Estimated Closing Debt”), (ii) the aggregate amount of any Transaction Fees and Expenses that will remain unpaid as of Closing (the “Estimated Transaction Fees and Expenses”) and (iii) the forecasted Pre-Closing Operating Revenue (the “Estimated Pre-Closing Operating Revenue”). For purposes of the Estimated Closing Statement and the Final Closing Statement, all calculations shall be made as of 12:01 a.m. (Eastern Time) on the Closing Date.

(d) Within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Acquiror shall prepare and deliver to Contributors, in reasonable detail and in accordance with GAAP, a statement (the “Final Closing Statement”) that sets forth Acquiror’s good faith calculation of the Cash

- 16 -

Component, including its good faith calculations of (i) the aggregate amount of any Debt of Midstream that remained unpaid as of the Closing (the “Final Closing Debt”), (ii) the aggregate amount of any Transaction Fees and Expenses that remained unpaid as of the Closing (the “Final Transaction Fees and Expenses”) and (iii) the Pre-Closing Operating Revenues as of the Closing (the “Final Pre-Closing Operating Revenues”), together with such supporting documentation as may be reasonably requested by Contributors.

For purposes of clarity, any items that are not so disputed shall become binding upon Contributors and Acquiror ten (10) days after the Final Closing Statement is delivered to Contributors.

(e) After receipt of a Protest Letter by Acquiror, Contributors and Acquiror shall attempt in good faith to reconcile the specific disputes set forth in the Protest Letter with respect, as applicable, to the Final Closing Debt, the Final Transaction Fees and Expenses, and/or the Final Pre-Closing Operating Revenue.

Absent manifest error, the decision of the Arbiter shall be final and binding upon the Parties.

Contributors shall pay the portion of the fees and expenses of the Arbiter that Acquiror is not required to pay hereunder.

(f) Within five (5) Business Days after the later of (i) the expiration of the Review Period and (ii) the final resolution of all disputes under Section 2.01(e), if the Final Closing Debt, the Final Transaction Fees and Expenses, and/or the Final Pre-Closing Operating Revenue (as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.01) differs from the Estimated Closing

- 17 -

Debt, the Estimated Transaction Fees and Expenses, and/or the Estimated Pre-Closing Revenue, the Cash Component shall be recalculated using the finally determined figures in lieu of such estimated figures, and (1) Acquiror shall pay to Contributors by wire transfer of immediately available funds the amount, if any, by which such re-calculated Cash Component exceeds the Cash Component paid on the Closing Date in accordance with Section 2.01(b) and Section 2.01(c) or (2) Contributors shall pay to Acquiror by wire transfer of immediately available funds the amount, if any, by which the Cash Component paid on the Closing Date in accordance with Section 2.01(b) and Section 2.01(c) exceeds such re-calculated Cash Component.

(g) Contributors shall be solely responsible for all Pre-Closing Operating Costs. From and after the Closing Date, if Midstream or Acquiror receives any invoice or demand for payment in respect of any Pre-Closing Operating Costs, then UET shall promptly pay (or, if paid by Midstream, reimburse Midstream for) such Pre-Closing Operating Costs following receipt of such invoice or other document evidencing such Cost.

(h) Prior to the Closing Date, Contributors shall cause Midstream to remit to Contributors the aggregate amount of all cash held by Midstream in any bank account in the name of Midstream. From and after the Closing Date, if Midstream or Acquiror receives any payment in respect of any Pre-Closing Operating Revenue, Acquiror shall, promptly following receipt thereof, remit to UET or its designee in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified in the Wiring Instructions, an amount equal to the payment in respect of such Pre-Closing Operating Revenues.

(e) Non-Contravention. None of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by the Partnership will (i) violate any provision of any Law or Governmental Order of any court or Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Partnership or any of its properties or assets or (ii) conflict with or result in a violation of the Partnership’s certificate of limited partnership or First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership (the “Partnership Agreement”), in each case, where such violation or conflict would prevent or significantly impede the issuance of the Partnership Interests.

(g) SEC Documents. The Partnership has filed timely with the SEC all forms, registration statements, reports, schedules and statements required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act (all such documents filed on or prior to the date of this Agreement, collectively, the “ARCX SEC Documents”). The ARCX SEC Documents, including, without limitation, any audited or unaudited financial statements and any notes thereto or schedules included therein (the “ARCX Financial Statements”), at the time filed (in the case of registration statements, solely on the dates of effectiveness), except to the extent corrected by a subsequently filed ARCX SEC Document filed prior to the date hereof (i) did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (ii) complied as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the Securities Act, as the case may be and; (iii) in the case of the ARCX Financial Statements, (A) complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and with the published rules and regulations of the SEC with

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is an independent registered public accounting firm with respect to the Partnership and has not resigned or been dismissed as independent registered public accountants of the Partnership.

(h) No Material Adverse Effect. Since December 31, 2014, and except as disclosed in the ARCX SEC Documents, none of the Partnership or its subsidiaries has sustained any loss or interference from fire, explosion, flood or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any labor dispute or court or governmental action, investigation, order or decree, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the ARCX SEC Documents and other than as would not reasonably be expected to have a Partnership Material Adverse Effect. Subsequent to December 31, 2014, and except as disclosed in the ARCX SEC Documents, to the knowledge of the Partnership, there has not been any material adverse change, or any development involving, individually or in the aggregate, a prospective material adverse change, in or affecting the condition (financial or otherwise), management, earnings, business or properties of the Partnership or its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business.

(i) Investment Company Status. The Partnership is not an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940.

(k) Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Contributors contained in this Agreement, the sale and issuance of the Partnership Interests to the Contributors pursuant to this Agreement is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and neither the Partnership nor any authorized agent acting on its behalf has taken or will take any action hereafter that would cause the loss of such exemptions.

(l) Ownership of Acquiror. The Partnership owns 100% of the membership interests of Arc Logistics LLC, which owns 100% of the membership interests of Acquiror.

Partnership has no present plan or intention to make or permit any transfers or issuance of any interests in Arc Logistics LLC or Acquiror, or to take any other action that would cause either or both Arc Logistics LLC or Acquiror to become regarded entities for U.S. federal or applicable state income Tax purposes.

(i) No Party shall have any obligation to indemnify any Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 6.01(b)(i) or Section 6.01(c)(i), as applicable, in respect of Losses arising from the breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty described therein (excluding any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any Contributor Fundamental Representation, Acquiror Fundamental Representation, Partnership Fundamental Representation or Specified Representation or representation made pursuant to Section 5.02(g)), until the aggregate amount of Losses suffered by the applicable Indemnified Party, by reason of all such breaches and/or claims exceeds seven hundred fifty thousand dollars ($750,000) (the “Deductible”), and then only for such Losses that exceed the Deductible.

(ii) Any breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement by either Party in connection with any single item or group of related items that results in Losses of less than twenty five thousand dollars ($25,000) (“De Minimis Amount”) shall be deemed for all purposes of this Section 6.01 not to be any breach of such representation or warranty; provided, that the De Minimis Amount shall not apply to any breach of a Contributor Fundamental Representation, Acquiror Fundamental Representation, Partnership Fundamental Representation or any Specified Representation.

(iii) A Contributor’s obligation to indemnify the Acquiror Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 6.01(b)(i) and Acquiror’s obligation to indemnify the Contributor Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 6.01(c)(i) shall not exceed an aggregate amount equal to 10% of the Acquisition Amount, except to the extent such obligations relate to or result from breaches or inaccuracies in the Contributor

- 41 -

Fundamental Representations, Acquiror Fundamental Representations, Partnership Fundamental Representations or the Specified Representations, in which event such indemnification obligation shall not exceed an aggregate ceiling equal to the Acquisition Amount (after which point there is no further obligation to indemnify the applicable Indemnified Party from and against any further Loss).

(iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations provided in Section 6.01(d) shall not apply in case of fraud and criminal acts, and the Parties shall be liable for all Losses with respect thereto.

(e) No Circular Recovery. Each Contributor hereby agrees that it will not make any claim for indemnification against Acquiror (or make or institute any claim or proceeding against Midstream) by reason of the fact that such Contributor was a controlling Person, director, employee or Representative of Midstream or was serving as such for another Person at the request of Midstream (whether such claim is for Liabilities of any kind or otherwise and whether such claim is pursuant to any Law, Charter Document, Contract or otherwise) with respect to any claim brought by an Acquiror Indemnified Party against such Contributor under this Agreement or otherwise relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby. With respect to any claim brought by an Acquiror Indemnified Party against any Contributor under this Agreement or otherwise relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, each Contributor expressly waives any right of contribution, advancement, indemnification or other claim against Midstream with respect to any amounts owed by such Acquiror pursuant to this Article 6, Article 7 or otherwise.

Payments by an Indemnifying Party under this Article 6 in respect of any Losses shall be limited to the amount of any Losses that remain after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds (to the extent available under any pre-paid insurance policy in the name of Midstream and in effect immediately prior to the Closing) and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received by the Indemnified Party in respect of any such claim, in each case, after first applying any such payments to any Losses and any other costs and expenses suffered by the Indemnified Party in connection with such claim that are not indemnifiable (including, without limitation, after deducting the costs and expenses of recovery and, in the case of insurance proceeds, any increase in insurance premiums as a result of making any claim for insurance and recovering any proceeds under the applicable insurance policy). All indemnification payments under this Article 6 shall be deemed adjustments to the Acquisition Amount for Tax purposes unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

(g) Exclusive Remedy. Except in the case of fraud and criminal acts, Acquiror and Contributors acknowledge and agree that the foregoing indemnification provisions in this Section 6.01 and the relief contemplated by Section 6.02 and Article 7 shall be the exclusive remedy of the Parties with respect to this Agreement (including any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant) and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(h) Waiver of Certain Losses. No party shall be entitled to recover any special, consequential, indirect, punitive, exemplary, remote or speculative damages (including any damages asserted on the basis of any loss of or lost profits, diminution of value or multiples

- 42 -

of earnings, profits or cash flows) under this Section 6.01 arising under or in connection with the agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Acquiror shall be entitled to recover all Losses of any nature arising out of a breach of any representation or warranty by Contributors or a breach of or nonfulfillment of any covenant by Contributors under this Agreement, which Losses relate to or arise out of the loss of revenues (including any damages asserted on the basis of any loss of or lost profits, diminution of value or multiples of earnings, profits or cash flows) under any Throughput Agreement during the initial term of any such Throughput Agreement; and further provided that any special, consequential, indirect, punitive, exemplary, remote or speculative damages paid to a Third-Party or to which a Third-Party is entitled pursuant to a valid and enforceable contract or by Law (including Governmental Authorities) against a Person entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.01 shall be included in the Losses recoverable under such indemnity.

(i) Knowledge and Investigation. The right of any Acquiror Indemnified Party or Contributor Indemnified Party to indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.01 or Article 7 will not be affected by any investigation conducted or knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, with respect to the accuracy of any representation or warranty or performance of or compliance with any covenant or agreement referred to in Section 6.01(b) or Section 6.01(c) or Article 7.

(j) Third-Party Claims.

(i) An Indemnified Party shall give notice of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim to the other Party (an “Indemnifying Party”); provided, however, that no failure or delay on the part of an Indemnified Party in notifying an Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation under this Section 6.01 except to the extent that the failure or delay materially prejudices the defense of the Third-Party Claim by the Indemnifying Party.

(ii) Except as provided in Section 6.01(j)(iii), the Indemnifying Party may elect, at its sole cost and expense, to assume the defense of the Third-Party Claim with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party by (1) giving notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of the Third-Party Claim and further acknowledges that it is obligated to indemnify, pay and reimburse the Indemnified Party for all Losses arising out of such Third-Party Claim and (2) giving the Indemnified Party evidence acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party has adequate financial resources to defend against the Third-Party Claim and fulfill its obligations under this Article 6, in each case no later than ten (10) days after the Indemnified Party gives notice of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim under Section 6.01(i)(i).

(A) If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim:

(1) it shall diligently and actively conduct the defense and, so long as it diligently conducts the defense, shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any Indemnified Party’s fees or expenses subsequently incurred in connection with the defense of the Third-Party Claim other than reasonable costs of investigation;

- 43 -

(2) the election will conclusively establish for purposes of this Agreement that the Indemnified Party is entitled to relief under this Agreement for any Loss arising, directly or indirectly, from or in connection with the Third-Party Claim (subject to the provisions of Section 6.01(d));

(3) no compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claim may be effected by the Indemnifying Party without the Indemnified Party’s consent unless (1) there is no finding or admission of any violation by the Indemnified Party of any Law or any rights of any Party, (2) the Indemnified Party receives a full release of and from any other claims that may be made against the Indemnified Party by the Third-Party bringing the Third-Party Claim, and (3) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party;

(4) the Indemnifying Party shall have no Liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such claims effected without its consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned);

(5) such defense shall be conducted by counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party to the extent such counsel is reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; and

(6) the Indemnified Party has not been advised by counsel that an actual or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(B) If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim in the manner and within the period provided in this Section 6.01(j), or if the Indemnifying Party does not diligently and actively conduct the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may conduct the defense of the Third-Party Claim at the expense of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by any determination resulting from such Third-Party Claim or any compromise or settlement effected or agreed to by the Indemnified Party.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Third-Party Claim may adversely affect it or any Related Party other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to relief under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may, by notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise, or settle such Third-Party Claim.

- 44 -

(iv) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.11, Contributors consent to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any court in which a Claim is brought against any Indemnified Party for purposes of determining any claim that an Indemnified Party may have under this Agreement with respect to such Claim or the matters alleged therein.

(v) With respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to this Section 6.01:

(A) any Indemnified Party and any Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, shall keep the other Party reasonably informed of the status of such Third-Party Claim and any related Claim at all stages thereof where such Party is not represented by its own counsel; and

(B) both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, shall render to each other such assistance as they may reasonably require of each other and shall cooperate in good faith with each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of any Third-Party Claim.

(vi) In addition to Section 8.07, with respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to this Section 6.01, the Parties shall cooperate in a manner to preserve in full (to the extent reasonably practicable) the confidentiality of all confidential information and the attorney-client and work-product privileges. In connection therewith, each party agrees that:

(A) it shall use its reasonable best efforts, in respect of any Third-Party Claim in which it has assumed or participated in the defense, to avoid production of confidential information (consistent with applicable Law and rules of procedure); and

(B) all communications between any party and counsel responsible for or participating in the defense of any Third-Party Claim shall, to the extent possible, be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privilege.

(vii) Any claim under this Section 6.01 for any matter involving a Third-Party Claim shall be indemnified, paid, or reimbursed promptly. If the Indemnified Party shall for any reason assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party on a monthly basis for the costs of investigation and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party.

Section 6.02 Specific Performance. The Parties each acknowledge that the rights of each Party to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are special, unique and of extraordinary character and that, in the event that any Party violates or fails or refuses to perform any covenant or agreement made by it in this Agreement, the non-breaching Party may be without an adequate remedy at law. The Parties agree, therefore, that in the event that any

- 45 -

Party violates or fails or refuses to perform any covenant or agreement made by such Party in this Agreement, any non-breaching Party may, subject to the terms of this Agreement, institute and prosecute an action to enforce specific performance of such covenant or agreement.

With respect to any flow-through income Tax Return with respect to Midstream covering any taxable period that ends on or before the Closing Date that is filed on or after the Closing Date: (i) UET shall, at its sole cost and expense, cause such Tax Return to be prepared (in a manner consistent with practices followed in prior taxable periods and in compliance with applicable Laws except as required by a change in Laws or fact) and shall deliver such Tax Return as so prepared to Acquiror not later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date for Acquiror’s review and comment; and (ii) UET and Acquiror shall cooperate and consult with each other to finalize such Tax Return. Midstream shall make an election under Section 754 of the Code on such Tax Return.

With respect to any Tax Return with respect to Midstream covering a taxable period beginning on or before the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”) that is filed after the Closing Date: (i) Acquiror shall, at its sole cost and expense, cause such Straddle Period Tax Return to be prepared (in a manner consistent with practices followed in prior taxable periods and in compliance with applicable Law except as required by a change in Law or fact) and shall deliver a draft of such material Straddle Period Tax Return to UET for UET’s review and approval at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date (including extensions) for filing such Straddle Period Tax Return; (ii) UET and Acquiror shall cooperate and consult with each other in order to finalize such Tax Return; (iii) Contributors shall pay to Acquiror any portion of the Taxes shown as due and payable on such Straddle Period Tax Return that are required to be paid by Contributors under this Agreement; and (iv) Acquiror shall cause such Tax Return to be executed and duly and timely filed with the appropriate Governmental Authority and shall pay all Taxes shown as due and payable on such Tax Return.

(c) Post-Closing Returns. Acquiror shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all other Tax Returns for Midstream that are filed after the Closing Date.

Section 7.02 Tax Indemnity.

(a) Contributors shall be responsible for and indemnify the Acquiror Indemnified Parties and hold them harmless from and against any loss, claim, Liability, expense, or other damages attributable to (i) all Liability for Taxes of Midstream for all taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date, and the portion of any Straddle Period from the beginning of such Straddle Period through the end of Closing Date (“Pre-Closing Tax Period”); (ii) all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of which Midstream (or any predecessor) is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date, including

- 46 -

pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local or non-U.S. Law; and (iii) any and all Taxes of any Person imposed on Midstream as a transferee or successor, by contract or pursuant to any Law, which Taxes relate to an event, transaction, relationship or time occurring during a Pre-Closing Tax Period; provided, however, that the Contributors shall be liable only to the extent that such Taxes exceed the amount, if any, included as a Tax Liability in the Acquisition Amount, as finally determined under this Agreement. With respect to a Straddle Period, the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income, withholding, sales, receipts, payroll or similar for the portion of the Straddle Period that ends on the Closing Date shall be determined by an interim closing of the books of Midstream as of the end of the Closing Date, and the amount of all other Taxes for the portion of the Straddle period that ends on the Closing Date shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such Straddle Period.

(b) Acquiror shall be responsible for and indemnify Contributor Indemnified Parties and hold them harmless from and against any loss, claim, liability, expense or other damage attributable to (i) all liability for Taxes of Midstream (and any Taxes of Acquiror or any other Person for which Midstream may be liable by contract, operation of law, as a transferee or successor, pursuant to any Law or otherwise which Taxes relate to an event, transaction, relationship or time occurring during a Post-Closing Tax Period) for all taxable periods beginning after the Closing Date, and the portion of a Straddle Period that begins after the Closing Date (the “Post Closing Tax Period”); and (ii) all Taxes for Post-Closing Tax Periods of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of which Midstream is or becomes a member after the Closing Date, including pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar state, local or non-U.S. Law. With respect to any Tax for which Acquiror is responsible pursuant to this Section 7.02(b), the Contributor Indemnified Party shall, at its sole cost and expense, control any such Tax proceeding; provided that, the Acquiror shall be entitled, at its sole cost and expense, to participate in any such Tax proceeding. At Acquiror’s expense, the Contributor Indemnified Parties shall take such action in connection with any such proceeding as Acquiror shall reasonably request, in writing, from time to time. The Contributor Indemnified Parties shall not settle any such Tax proceeding with respect to any Tax which Acquiror is responsible pursuant to this Section 7.02(b) without the Acquiror’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Contributor Indemnified Parties shall give written notice to Acquiror of their receipt of any notice of any audit, examination, claim or assessment for any Tax for which Acquiror is responsible within ten (10) days after its receipt of such notice. Failure to give any such written notice within such ten (10)-day period shall limit Acquiror’s indemnification obligation pursuant to this Agreement only to the extent failure or delay materially prejudices the defense of such Tax proceeding by Acquiror.

(c) Acquiror shall be entitled to any refunds that are paid to Midstream of Taxes that are attributable to any taxable period, or portion of a Straddle Period, that begins on or after the Closing Date.

Section 7.03 Tax Proceedings. With respect to any Tax for which Contributors are responsible pursuant to this Article 7, UET shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense,

- 47 -

to control (in the case of any Tax proceeding relating solely to a Pre-Closing Tax Period) or to participate in (in the case of any Tax proceeding relating to a Straddle Period or any Tax proceeding relating in part to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period) the prosecution, settlement or compromise of any proceeding involving such Tax. At Contributors’ expense, Acquiror shall (and shall cause Midstream to) take such action in connection with any such proceeding as UET shall reasonably request, in writing, from time to time to implement the preceding sentence, including the selection of counsel and experts and the execution of powers of attorney. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Acquiror shall be entitled, at its sole cost and expense, to participate in any proceeding involving a Tax Return for Midstream for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, and UET shall not settle any such proceeding it controls without Acquiror’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld. Acquiror shall (and shall cause Midstream to) give written notice to Contributors of its receipt of any notice of any audit, examination, claim or assessment for any Tax for which Contributors are responsible within ten (10) days after its receipt of such notice. Failure to give any such written notice within such ten (10)-day period shall limit Contributors’ indemnification obligation pursuant to this Agreement only to the extent failure or delay materially prejudices the defense of such Tax proceeding by UET.

Section 7.04 Cooperation on Tax Matters. Contributors shall grant to Acquiror (or its designees) access at all reasonable times to all of the information, books and records relating to Midstream within the possession of Contributors (including work papers and correspondence with Governmental Authorities) and shall afford Acquiror (or its designees) the right (at Acquiror’s expense) to take extracts therefrom and to make copies thereof, in each case to the extent reasonably necessary to permit Acquiror (or its designees) to prepare Tax Returns, respond to Tax audits and investigations, prosecute Tax protests, appeals and refund claims and to conduct negotiations with Governmental Authorities. Acquiror shall grant or cause Midstream (or its relevant Affiliates) to grant to Contributors (or their designees) access at all reasonable times to all of the information, books and records relating to Midstream for Pre-Closing Tax Periods within the possession of Acquiror or Midstream (or their relevant Affiliates) (including work papers and correspondence with Governmental Authorities), and shall afford Contributors (or their designees) the right (at Contributors’ expense) to take extracts therefrom and to make copies thereof, in each case to the extent reasonably necessary to permit Contributors (or their designees) to prepare Tax Returns, respond to Tax audits and investigations, prosecute Tax protests, appeals and refund claims and to conduct negotiations with Governmental Authorities. After the Closing Date, Contributors and Acquiror will preserve all information, records or documents (including all accounting records) in their (or their relevant Affiliates’) respective possessions relating to liabilities for Taxes of Midstream for Pre-Closing Tax Periods until the later of (i) five years or (ii) six months after the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations (including extensions thereof) with respect to the assessment of such Taxes.

Section 7.05 Tax Refunds. If after the Closing Date, Acquiror or Midstream receives a payment of a refund of any Tax of Midstream attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, Acquiror shall pay to Contributors within ten (10) Business Days after such receipt an amount equal to such refund received, together with any interest received thereon from a taxing authority, net of (1) any reasonable costs associated therewith, (2) the increase in Taxes of the Acquiror and/or Midstream attributable to such refund, and (3) any Tax required to be withheld on such payment. If there is a subsequent reduction by the applicable taxing authority (or by

- 48 -

virtue of a change in applicable Tax law), of any amounts with respect to which a payment has been made to the Contributors pursuant to this Section 7.05, then Contributors shall pay the Acquiror an amount equal to such reduction plus any interest or penalties imposed by the taxing authority with respect to such reduction. If after the Closing Date the Contributors receive a refund of any Tax of Midstream that was paid by Acquiror or Midstream after the Closing Date and is attributable to any taxable period other than a Pre-Closing Tax Period, Contributors shall pay to Acquiror within ten (10) Business Days after such receipt an amount equal to such refund received, together with any interest received thereon, net of any reasonable costs associated therewith. At the written request of a Contributor, Acquiror (at such Contributor’s sole cost and expense), shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Midstream to cooperate with such Contributor in its efforts to obtain any refund of any Tax of Midstream attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.05, the Acquiror shall be entitled to any refunds attributable to the carryback of any Tax attribute from a taxable period other than a Pre-Closing Tax Period to a Pre-Closing Tax Period.

Section 7.06 Tax Sharing Agreements. All tax-sharing agreements or similar agreements with respect to or involving Midstream shall be terminated as of the Closing Date and shall have no further force or effect thereafter.

Section 7.07 Transfer Taxes. Acquiror, on the one hand, and Contributors, on the other, shall split equally the cost of any and all stamp, transfer, sales, use, filing, value added, excise and similar Taxes and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges imposed on or resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Acquiror will file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Taxes, fees and charges, and, if required by applicable law, Contributors will join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

Section 7.08 Withholding. Acquiror shall be entitled to (and shall be entitled to cause Midstream to) deduct and withhold from the consideration paid to any Person under this Agreement such amounts that Acquiror and/or Midstream are required to deduct and withhold under the Code or any provision of state, local, or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Acquiror and/or the Midstream, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

Section 7.09 Tax Treatment of Transaction; Allocation. The Parties intend to treat, for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, (1) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as a part sale, part contribution to the Partnership by UET and Hawkeye, as described in Sections 721 and 707(a)(2)(B) of the Code and in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.721-1(a) and 1.707-3, and Example 1 of 1.707-3(f), (2) the Acquiror as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal and applicable state income Tax purposes, (3) the portion of the Cash Component equal to the Capex Amount as a reimbursement of pre-formation expenditures incurred by UET within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-4(d), and (4) UET’s basis in the Partnership Interests for purposes of Sections 705 and 722 of the Code as equal to the Partnership Basis Amount. The parties further agree not to take any action or position on any Tax Return that is inconsistent with such treatment unless otherwise required to do so by law or a final determination (as defined in Section 1313 of the Code). Acquiror shall prepare an allocation of an amount equal to the Cash

- 49 -

Component less the Capex Amount (plus all other items required to be included under the Code) in accordance with Sections 755 and 1060 of the Code. The Contributors shall deliver to the Acquiror the information set forth in Schedule 7.09. Acquiror shall deliver a schedule setting forth such allocation within ninety days after the amount of the Cash Component is determined pursuant to Section 2.01(b). If, within ten Business Days after receiving Acquiror’s allocation, Contributors notify Acquiror that Contributors dispute any item(s) reflected thereon (a “Dispute Notice”) Acquiror and Contributors shall cooperate in good faith in an effort to resolve such dispute. If the Parties fail to reach an agreement within thirty days after delivery of the Dispute Notice, the determination of the disputed item(s) shall be made by the nationally recognized accounting firm mutually selected by the Parties, whose decision shall be final and whose fees shall be shared equally by Acquiror, on the one hand, and Contributors on the other. The parties further agree not to take any position on any Tax Return or in any action before any Tax authority that is inconsistent with the allocation, as finally determined under this Section 7.09, unless required to do so by Law or a final determination (as defined in Section 1313 of the Code).

Section 7.10 Survival and Limitations. The indemnities and obligations provided in this Article 7 shall (a) survive until ninety (90) days after the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitation plus any applicable extensions or waivers thereof, and (b) not be subject to any of the limitations set forth in Section 6.01 (including, without limitation, the limitations set forth in Section 6.01(d)). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions of Section 6.01 are inconsistent with or conflict with the provisions of this Article 7, the provisions of this Article 7 shall control.

ARTICLE 8

COVENANTS

Section 8.01 Lockup Period. Each Contributor agrees that for a period commencing on the Closing Date and expiring on the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days after the Closing Date, such Contributor will not, directly or indirectly, issue, offer, agree or offer to sell, sell, grant an option for the purchase or sale of, transfer, pledge, assign, hypothecate, distribute or otherwise encumber or dispose of any of the Partnership Interests. For so long as either Contributor or any of its Affiliates beneficially own any Partnership Interests, neither Contributor shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates not to, engage in any “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act, whether or not against the box, and forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, short sales, “put equivalent positions” (as defined in Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act) and similar arrangements, and sales and other transactions through non-U.S. broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers.

Section 8.02 Non-Competition; Non-Solicit.

(a) Non-Competition. Subject to Section 8.02(b), each Contributor, its Affiliates and its and their Subsidiaries agree not to, directly or indirectly, engage in the ownership, development, operation, or financing of or investment in any Crude Terminal (1) capable of delivering crude oil into the NECL Pony Express Pipeline or (2) within a fifty (50) mile radius of the Pawnee Terminal, in each case for a period of five (5) years from and after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any of either Contributor, its Affiliates and its and

- 50 -

their Subsidiaries may own, develop, operate, finance or invest in a Gathering System With Tanks that delivers crude via pipeline solely to the Pawnee Terminal or a Buckingham Terminal (or both); provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 8.02(a) shall restrict a Contributor or its Affiliates and their Subsidiaries from engaging in the ownership, development, operation, or financing of or investment in a Gathering System Without Tanks.

(b) Permitted Investments. Each Contributor, its Affiliates and its and their Subsidiaries may at any time acquire or otherwise own interests in Persons listed on any national securities exchange or registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, provided that (i) with respect to any master limited partnership, such interests shall be non-voting and shall not exceed 20% of the total interests in such master limited partnership outstanding as of the date of purchase, or (ii) with respect to any other Person, such interests shall not exceed 10% of the interests in such Person outstanding as of the date of purchase and (iii) in no event shall any Contributor or any of their respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries be permitted to (A) acquire any interests which would give such Persons the right to elect, designate or appoint, directly or indirectly, any Person to the board of directors (or equivalent governing body) of any such Person or (B) own or control, directly or indirectly, any general partner interest in the general partner of a master limited partnership. Nothing in this Section 8.02 shall prohibit Contributor, its Affiliates or its and their Subsidiaries from acquiring Equity Interests in any Person as consideration for a UET Sale, but only if such acquiring Person agrees that after the consummation of such UET Sale the acquiring Person will be bound by the restrictions applicable to Contributors in this Section 8.02.

(c) Other Business Activities. Nothing in this Section 8.02 shall be deemed to restrict any Contributor, its Affiliates and its and their Subsidiaries from engaging in any business other than as expressly set forth in this Section 8.02. Without limiting the foregoing, Acquiror acknowledges that each Contributor and its Affiliates and its and their Subsidiaries shall not be restricted from engaging in marketing and trading of hydrocarbons within any market covered by Section 8.02(a).

(d) Non-Solicit. From the Closing Date until the two (2) year anniversary of the Closing Date, Acquiror will not, and will cause Midstream not to, directly or indirectly, solicit for employment (other than general solicitations of employment not specifically directed towards officers or employees of Contributors or their Affiliates) or employ any officer or employee of Contributors or their Affiliates without obtaining the prior written consent of Contributors. From the Closing Date until the two (2) year anniversary of the Closing Date, each Contributor will not, and will cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, solicit for employment (other than general solicitations of employment not specifically directed towards officers or employees of Acquiror and its Affiliates, including Midstream) or employ any officer or employee of the Acquiror and its Affiliates, including Midstream, without obtaining the prior written consent of Acquiror.

Section 8.03 Certain Arrangements Relating to Gathering Systems.

(a) Exclusivity. Subject to Section 8.03(b), UET or its designated Subsidiary or Affiliate shall, with the exception of Gathering Systems Without Tanks in operation as of the Closing Date and connecting through the Pawnee Terminal, have the exclusive right for a period

- 51 -

of twelve (12) months following the Closing Date (the “Gathering System Exclusivity Period”) to develop Gathering Systems Without Tanks or Gathering Systems With Tanks provided that, in either event, such gathering system delivers crude solely to the Pawnee Terminal or a Buckingham Terminal, subject to (i) there being in effect a written agreement between Midstream and UET (or its designated Subsidiary or Affiliate) under which crude may be delivered to the Pawnee Terminal by way of such gathering system or (ii) the execution and delivery of a throughput agreement or amendment to an existing throughput agreement with UET or its designated subsidiary or Affiliate on terms and conditions mutually acceptable to the parties (any such gathering system, a “Gathering Project”), it being understood and agreed that the development of any Gathering System With Tanks remains subject to the provisions of Section 8.02(a) to the extent provided therein.

(b) Call Option.

(i) Call Option Generally. If UET or its designated Subsidiary or Affiliate successfully develops any Gathering Project to the stage where binding contracts for the development of such Gathering Project and binding contracts for revenue sufficient to support the development of such Gathering Project have been executed and delivered, all real property and permits for the development of such Gathering Project have been obtained and the infrastructure relating to such Gathering Project is at least fifty percent (50%) complete (such stage, “Successful Development”), Acquiror or its designated Subsidiary or Affiliate shall have the right to purchase (the “Call Option”) up to twenty five percent (25%) of UET’s Gathering Project Interests (the “Call Option Interest”).

(ii) Notice; Exercise of Call Option. No later than five (5) Business Days days following Successful Development of any Gathering Project, UET shall notify Acquiror in writing of the achievement of such Successful Development (the “Successful Development Notice”). Upon receipt of the Successful Development Notice, Acquiror will have up to the later of thirty (30) days following receipt of such Successful Development Notice and the date that is ninety (90) days prior to the date such Gathering Project shall become commercially operable to offer to purchase the Call Option Interest. If Acquiror desires to purchase the Call Option Interest, Acquiror shall deliver to UET a written notice exercising the Call Option (the “Call Option Exercise Notice”).

(iii) Purchase and Sale. In connection with the exercise by Acquiror of the Call Option, UET (or its designated Subsidiary or Affiliate, as applicable) and Acquiror will enter into a customary purchase and sale agreement for assets of this type (including with respect to representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification) (the “Call Option Purchase Agreement”) to effect the purchase and sale of the Call Option Interest. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Call Option shall take place not later than thirty (30) days on or after the date on which the subject Gathering Project has completed all required performance tests and has otherwise been built to the specifications outlined in the applicable engineering, procurement and construction contract or, at the request of Acquiror, within thirty (30) days following the delivery by Acquiror of the Call Option Exercise Notice (the “Call Option Closing Date”).

- 52 -

(iv) Consummation of Sale. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Call Option Purchase Agreement, Acquiror shall pay the Call Purchase Price for the Call Option Interest by wire transfer of immediately available funds on the Call Option Closing Date and UET shall deliver to Acquiror a certificate or certificates or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Acquiror evidencing the transfer of all of the Call Option Interest to be transferred to Acquiror thereunder and shall take all others actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the sale contemplated by this Section 8.03(b) (including negotiating in good faith and agreeing upon terms and conditions of amended organizational documents of the entity owning the Gathering Project to include provisions, including major or significant actions requiring consent of Acquiror, as are customary for a significant minority investor in such entity).

(v) Call Option Purchase Price. In the event that Acquiror exercises the Call Option pursuant to this Section 8.03(b), the aggregate purchase price at which UET (or its designated Subsidiary or Affiliate, as applicable) shall be obligated to sell the Call Option Interest (the “Call Option Purchase Price”) shall be equal to the cost of such Gathering Project multiplied by the Call Option Interest (expressed as a percentage).

(c) Right of First Refusal on Gathering Projects. At any time following the acquisition by Acquiror of the Call Option Interest, each of Acquiror and UET shall have a right of first refusal with respect to their or their respective Affiliates’ ownership interests in the Gathering Project Interests if the other Party (or its designated Subsidiary or Affiliate, as applicable) (the “Transferring Party”) receives an offer from a Third Party to purchase all or any portion of the Gathering Project Interests owned by the Transferring Party that the Transferring Party desires to accept (the “Offered Interests”). Prior to accepting such offer, the Transferring Party must first make an offering of the Offered Interests to the other Party (the “Non-Transferring Party”) in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 8.03(c):

(i) The Transferring Party will give written notice (the “Offering Notice”) to the other Party stating that it has received a bona fide Third Party offer to Transfer the Offered Interests and specifying (1) the number of Offered Interests that the Transferring Party proposes to transfer, (2) the price per Offered Interest and (3) the other material terms and conditions of such Third Party offer, including the identity of the Third Party offeror and a description of any non-cash consideration in sufficient detail to permit the valuation thereof. The Offering Notice will constitute the Transferring Party’s offer to Transfer the Offered Units to the other Party on the terms set forth in the Offering Notice, which offer will remain outstanding and be irrevocable for a period of thirty (30) days (the “ROFR Notice Period”).

(ii) Upon receipt of the Offering Notice, the Non-Transferring Party will have until the end of the ROFR Notice Period to offer to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Offered Interests by delivering a written notice (a “ROFR Offer”) to the Transferring Party that it offers to purchase such Offered Interests at a price specified in such ROFR Offer. Any ROFR Offer so delivered will be irrevocable and binding upon delivery by the Non-Transferring Party and will obligate such Non-Transferring Party to purchase (and, to the extent the price offered in the ROFR Offer is equal to or exceeds the price set forth in the Offering Notice, the Transferring Party to sell) the Offered Interests at the price set forth in the applicable ROFR Offer within sixty (60) days after the Non-Transferring Party receives the Transferring Party’s notice (the “ROFR Date”).

- 53 -

(iii) If the Non-Transferring Party does not deliver a ROFR Offer during the ROFR Notice Period, the Non-Transferring Party shall be deemed to have waived all of its rights to purchase the Offered Interests under this Section 8.03(c), and the Transferring Party shall thereafter be free to Transfer the Offered Interests to the Third Party specified in the Offering Notice during the 180-day period following the expiration of the ROFR Notice Period (which period may be extended for a reasonable time not to exceed an additional forty-five (45) days to the extent reasonably necessary to obtain any required government approvals) (the “ROFR Transfer Period”); provided, that if the Transferring Party does not Transfer the Offered Interests within the ROFR Transfer Period, the rights provided hereunder will be deemed to be revived and the Offered Interests will not be Transferred to any Person unless first re-offered to the Non-Transferring Party in accordance with this
Section 8.03(c).

(iv) Acquiror and UET will take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the sale contemplated by this Section 8.03(c), including entering into agreements and delivering certificates and instruments and consents as may be deemed necessary or appropriate.

(v) The provisions of this Section 8.03(c) shall apply mutatis mutandis to Transfers of Offered Interests proposed to be made by any Person that is a direct or indirect transferee of Acquiror, UET or any of their respective Affiliates.

(d) Right of First Negotiation On Products from Certain Gathering Systems Without Tanks. From and after the date of the expiration of the Gathering Project Exclusivity Period until the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the Closing Date, if UET or its designated Subsidiary or Affiliate develops a Gathering System Without Tanks (to the stage where binding contracts for the development of such Gathering System Without Tanks and binding contracts for revenue sufficient to support the development of such Gathering System Without Tanks have been executed and delivered, all real property and permits for the development of such Gathering System Without Tanks have been obtained and the infrastructure relating to such Gathering System Without Tanks is at least fifty percent (50%) complete) with a point of origin that is located within a twenty (20) mile radius of the Pawnee Terminal or the Buckingham Property (any such Gathering System Without Tanks, a “ROFN Gathering Project”), Acquiror shall have a right of first negotiation with respect to the delivery of crude or derivatives thereof (the “Project Product”) from such ROFN Gathering Project by UET (or its designated Subsidiary or Affiliate) to Midstream in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 8.03(d):

(i) UET will give written notice to Acquiror stating its bona fide intention to enter into an agreement with Midstream to deliver Project Product to a terminal in order to facilitate throughput volumes of such Project Product to the Northeast Colorado Lateral of the Pony Express Pipeline or other similar pipeline (the “Terminal Agreement”) and specifying the material terms and conditions of such proposed agreement (the “ROFN Notice”). The ROFN Notice will constitute UET’s offer to engage in exclusive negotiations with Acquiror, on behalf of Midstream, which offer will remain outstanding and be irrevocable for a period of 30 days (the “ROFN Notice Period”).

- 54 -

(ii) Upon receipt of the ROFN Notice, Acquiror will have until the end of the ROFN Notice Period to notify UET in writing of its acceptance of UET’s offer to engage in exclusive negotiations with respect to a proposed Terminal Agreement as set forth in the ROFN Notice (a “ROFN Acceptance”). If Acquiror, on behalf of Midstream, and UET (assuming each is acting reasonably and in good faith) cannot reach an agreement regarding the terms of a Terminal Agreement within ninety (90) days from the date that Acquiror delivers to UET the ROFN Acceptance or such longer period of time as the parties shall agree in writing (the “Exclusive Negotiation Period”), then UET may enter into a bona fide Terminal Agreement with a Third-Party, provided that the terms (including price) in the aggregate are no more favorable to the Third-Party than those offered to Midstream.

(iii) If Acquiror does not deliver a ROFN Acceptance, then UET may, during the 180-day period following the expiration of the ROFN Notice Period (“Open Negotiation Period”), enter into a bona fide Terminal Agreement with a Third-Party for the Project Product, provided that the terms (including price) in the aggregate are no more favorable to the Third-Party than those offered to Acquiror.

(iv) If UET does not enter into a bona fide Terminal Agreement during the Open Negotiation Period, the rights provided hereunder will be deemed to be revived and UET shall not enter into a Terminal Agreement unless first re-offered to Acquiror in accordance with this Section 8.03(d).

(e) Drag-Along Rights. In the event that Acquiror does not exercise its rights under Section 8.03(c), if at any time UET proposes to Transfer to a Third-Party (the “Drag-Along Purchaser”) in connection with a Qualified Sale all of UET’s Gathering Project Interests in a Gathering Project in which Acquiror owns Gathering Project Interests, UET shall have the right (a “Drag-Along Right”), subject to Section 8.03(c) and Section 8.03(f), to require that Acquiror participate in such Transfer in the manner set forth in this Section 8.03(e) (any such Transfer, a “Drag-Along Sale”).

(i) UET shall exercise its rights pursuant to this Section 8.03(e) by delivering a written notice (the “Drag-Along Notice”) to Acquiror no later than thirty (30) days prior to the closing date of such Drag-Along Sale. The Drag-Along Notice shall make reference to the Acquiror’s rights and obligations hereunder and shall describe in reasonable detail:

(A) the Gathering Project Interests that are the subject of the Drag-Along Sale;

(B) the identity of the Drag-Along Purchaser;

- 55 -

(D) the purchase price and the other material terms and conditions of the Transfer, including a description of any non-cash consideration in sufficient detail to permit the valuation thereof; and

(E) a copy of any definitive documentation proposed to be executed in connection therewith.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the consummation of any Drag-Along Sale in which Acquiror is to receive consideration other than cash or publicly-traded securities shall require the prior written consent of Acquiror.

(iii) The consideration to be received by Acquiror in connection with any such Drag-Along Sale shall be the same form and amount of consideration per Gathering Project Interest to be received by UET (or if greater, in the case of Acquiror, the price per Gathering Project Interest required for the transaction to constitute a Qualified Sale) and the terms and conditions of such Transfer shall, except as otherwise provided in the immediately succeeding sentence, be the same as those upon which UET Transfers its Gathering Project Interests. Acquiror shall make or provide the same representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements as UET makes or provides in connection with the Drag-Along Sale (except that in the case of representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements pertaining specifically to UET, Acquiror shall make the comparable representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements pertaining specifically to itself); provided, that (A) all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities shall be made by UET and Acquiror severally and not jointly and any indemnification obligation shall be pro rata based on the consideration received by UET and Acquiror, in each case in an amount not to exceed the aggregate proceeds received by UET and Acquiror, respectively, in connection with such Drag-Along Sale; (B) in no event shall Acquiror be required to enter into any non-competition, non-solicitation or similar non-financial related agreements or covenants (other than customary seller confidentiality agreements) that would bind Acquiror or its Affiliates without Acquiror’s prior written consent and (C) Acquiror shall not be responsible for any indemnification obligations or liabilities for breaches of representations or covenants, or for related escrow or holdback claims made with respect to UET’s (v) ownership or title to the Gathering Project Interests; (w) organization; (x) conflicts or consents required to consummate the Transfer, or in respect of (y) any other representation made by UET concerning UET or (z) for breaches of any covenant specifically made by UET.

(iv) Acquiror shall be responsible for its proportionate share (apportioned pro rata based on the consideration to be received by each holder of Gathering Project Interests in connection with any such Drag-Along Sale) of the third-party, out-of-pocket, expenses incurred by UET in connection with such Drag-Along Sale (which expenses shall include the fees and expenses of a single legal counsel for Acquiror) (to the extent incurred by UET in connection with such Drag-Along Sale).

- 56 -

(v) Acquiror and UET will take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate any such Drag-Along Sale contemplated by this Section 8.03(e), including entering into agreements and delivering certificates and instruments and consents as may be deemed necessary or appropriate in connection therewith; provided, that, if such Drag-Along Sale has not been consummated by 11:59 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the ninetieth (90th) day after the date of the delivery of the Drag-Along Sale Notice, such Drag-Along Sale Notice shall be null and void and Acquiror shall be released from its obligations under this Section 8.03(e), and, in order to exercise its Drag-Along Right in accordance with this Section 8.03(e), it shall be necessary for UET to deliver a separate Drag-Along Sale Notice, and Acquiror shall be required to separately comply with the terms and provisions of this Section 8.03(e).

(vi) The provisions of this Section 8.03(e) shall apply mutatis mutandis to Transfers proposed to be made by any Person that is a direct or indirect transferee of UET or any of its respective wholly owned subsidiaries or Affiliates.

In the event that Acquiror does not exercise its rights of first refusal under Section 8.03(c) with respect to any Gathering Project Interests proposed to be Transferred in connection with any Offering Notice submitted by UET, and UET proposes to Transfer to a Third-Party (the “Tag-Along Purchaser”) all or a portion of UET’s Gathering Project Interests in a Gathering Project in which Acquiror owns Gathering Project Interests, subject to the conditions set forth in Section 8.03(c) (a “Proposed Transfer”), UET shall provide notice (the “Tag-Along Notice”) to Acquiror of Acquiror’s right to participate in such Proposed Transfer in the manner set forth in this Section 8.03(f) (any such Transfer, a “Tag-Along Sale”) pro rata based on the respective number of Project Gathering Interests held by UET and Acquiror (the “Tag-Along Right”). Such Tag-Along Notice shall describe in reasonable detail (w) the Gathering Project Interests that are the subject of the Tag-Along Sale; (x) the identity of the Tag-Along Purchaser; (y) the proposed date, time and location of the closing of the Tag-Along Sale and (z) the purchase price and the other material terms and conditions of the Transfer, including a description of any non-cash consideration in sufficient detail to permit the valuation thereof and shall include a copy of any definitive documentation proposed to be executed in connection therewith.

(i) Acquiror shall have the right to exercise the Tag-Along Right by giving written notice of such intent to participate (the “Tag-Along Acceptance Notice”) to UET within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt of the Tag-Along Notice (the “Tag-Along Notice Period”). Each Tag-Along Acceptance Notice shall indicate the maximum number of Gathering Project Interests subject thereto which Acquiror wishes to sell.

(ii) Within ten days after Acquiror provides UET with a Tag-Along Acceptance Notice, UET shall notify Acquiror of the number of Gathering Project Interests held by Acquiror that will be included in the Proposed Transfer and the date on which the Proposed Transfer will be consummated, which shall be no later than the later of (i) ninety (90) days after the end of the Tag-Along Notice Period and (ii) ten (10) Business Days after the satisfaction of any governmental approval or filing requirements, if any.

- 57 -

(iii) The consideration to be received by Acquiror in connection with any such Tag-Along Sale shall be the same form and amount of consideration per Gathering Project Interest to be received by UET and the terms and conditions of such Transfer shall, except as otherwise provided in the immediately succeeding sentence, be the same as those upon which UET Transfers its Gathering Project Interests. Acquiror shall make or provide the same representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements as UET makes or provides in connection with the Drag-Along Sale (except that in the case of representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements pertaining specifically to UET, Acquiror shall make the comparable representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements pertaining specifically to itself); provided, that (A) all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities shall be made by UET and Acquiror severally and not jointly and any indemnification obligation shall be pro rata based on the consideration received by UET and Acquiror, in each case in an amount not to exceed the aggregate proceeds received by UET and Acquiror, respectively, in connection with such Tag-Along Sale; (B) in no event shall Acquiror be required to enter into any non-competition, non-solicitation or similar non-financial related agreements or covenants (other than customary seller confidentiality agreements) that would bind Acquiror or its Affiliates without Acquiror’s prior written consent and (C) Acquiror shall not be responsible for any indemnification obligations or liabilities for breaches of representations or covenants, or for related escrow or holdback claims made with respect to UET’s (v) ownership or title to the Gathering Project Interests; (w) organization; (x) conflicts or consents required to consummate the Transfer, or in respect of (y) any other representation made by UET concerning UET or (z) for breaches of any covenant specifically made by UET.

Section 8.04 Contributor Name and Marks. Within ninety (90) days of the Closing Date Acquiror shall (a) cause amendments to be filed with the appropriate Governmental Authorities and shall provide evidence of such filings to UET to change the name of Midstream to remove all references to “UET”, “United Energy Trading” or any variant thereof; (b) cease the use of the names “United Energy Trading”, “UET” or any variant thereof; and (c) cease the use of any UET marks included in the assets of Midstream. For a period of ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, UET hereby grants Acquiror, effective as of the Closing Date, a non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free, fully paid, worldwide license to use “UET”, “United Energy Trading” or any variant thereof (such trademarks, service marks, or names, collectively, the “Licensed Trademarks”), solely for purposes of continued operation of Midstream’s business and effecting a transition of the operation of Midstream’s business from the control of Contributors to the control of Acquiror, which license grant, for purposes of clarity, shall include the right to continue to offer products and services under the Licensed Trademarks and use marketing and promotional materials, invoices, price lists, business cards, schedules, displays, signs, stationery, technical guidelines, product manuals, packaging materials, other supplies, and similar materials that include the Licensed Trademarks. Except as permitted by the preceding sentence, without the prior written consent of Contributors, Acquiror will not use, or permit any of its Representatives or its or their Representatives to use, the Licensed Trademarks for any purpose. UET and Midstream acknowledge and agree that the Trademark License Agreement, entered into by and between UET and Midstream and dated as of October 23, 2014 (the “Trademark License”), shall terminate as of the Closing, with no royalties or fees payable thereunder. UET and Midstream also acknowledge and agree that the last sentence of Section 3.2 of the Trademark License shall have no force and effect and that this Section 8.04 shall control with respect to any conflicts or inconsistencies between this Section 8.04 and the Trademark License.

Section 8.05 Employees and Employee Matters.

(a) Schedule 8.05 sets forth a list of the Continuing Employees. Contributor shall, or shall cause, each Continuing Employee to be employed by Midstream as of the Closing Date. Subject to compliance with Acquiror’s employee screening process (which includes customary background checks and drug screenings), Acquiror agrees that it shall, or shall cause Midstream to, continue to employ such Continuing Employee immediately following the Closing Date and provide to such Continuing Employee, during such Continuing Employee’s period of employment with the Acquiror or Midstream in the one-year period commencing on the Closing Date (i) base compensation that is at least substantially comparable in the aggregate to compensation provided to similarly situated employees of Acquiror and (ii) employee benefits and other compensation opportunities (other than equity-based compensation) that are at least substantially comparable in the aggregate to benefits that are provided to similarly situated employees of Acquiror.

(b) Acquiror agrees to have, or cause its Affiliate to have a Group Health Plan in which Continuing Employees may elect to participate effective as of the Closing Date. Acquiror will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that each Continuing Employee who participates in a Group Health Plan of Acquiror will receive a credit toward the deductible, coinsurance limit and out-of-pocket maximum applicable under the Acquiror Group Health Plan in respect of any deductible, coinsurance limit and out-of-pocket expenses paid by the Continuing Employee prior to the Closing Date for medical expenses incurred during the current calendar year that were applicable toward the deductible, coinsurance limit and out-of-pocket maximum under the analogous Group Health Plan of any Contributor or its Affiliate.

(c) Subject to the following provisions of this Section 8.05, if, during the one-year period beginning on the Closing Date, the employment of any Continuing Employee is terminated as a result of an Involuntary Termination, such Continuing Employee shall be paid a lump sum cash severance benefit by Acquiror or an Affiliate of Acquiror in an amount equal to the amount of the base salary or other regular hourly compensation the Continuing Employee would have received had he or she continued to work for Acquiror or an Affiliate of Acquiror during the period commencing on the date of the Involuntary Termination and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date. Any such severance payment that is due will be paid on the date that is forty-five (45) days following the Continuing Employee’s Separation From Service if the Continuing Employee is not a Specified Employee or six (6) months following Separation From Service if the Continuing Employee is a Specified Employee.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Continuing Employee will not be paid the severance benefits described in this Section 8.05, and the Continuing Employee shall forfeit any right to such payment, unless (i) the Continuing Employee has signed and delivered to Acquiror a standard release of claims agreement (which release agreement Acquiror shall be furnished to the Continuing Employee at the time of his or her termination of employment) and (ii) the period for revoking such release agreement shall have expired (in the case of both clause (i) and clause (ii)) prior to the applicable payment date (the date that is forty-five (45) days after the Continuing

- 59 -

Employee’s Separation From Service if the Continuing Employee is not a Specified Employee or six (6) months following Separation From Service if the Continuing Employee is a Specified Employee). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 8.05 shall be construed as an obligation on the part of Acquiror or any of its Affiliates to continue the employment of any Continuing Employee for any period of time, but should any Continuing Employee incur an Involuntary Termination of Employment during the one year period commencing on the Closing Date Acquiror shall comply, and shall cause its Affiliates to comply, with the terms of this Section 8.05 with respect to such Continuing Employee.

For purposes of this Section 8.05, the terms “Separation From Service” and “Specified Employee” have the meanings ascribed to those terms in Section 409A of the Code and Department of Treasury Regulations issued thereunder.

(d) Contributors shall take such actions as are necessary to cause Midstream to terminate its participation as an adopting employer of any Contributor Benefit Plans immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(e) Acquiror shall take, or cause to be taken, such actions as are necessary to cause the Continuing Employees to be granted past service credit for their service with Midstream and the ERISA Affiliates of Midstream for purposes of eligibility, vesting and level of paid time off or vacation benefits under the Benefit Plans of Acquiror and its Affiliates in which the Continuing Employees are eligible to participate; provided, however, that no such service credit shall be required to be credited unless (i) it was credited to such Continuing Employee for the same purpose under the analogous Contributor Benefit Plan and would not result in duplication of benefits and (ii) Midstream furnishes to Acquiror sufficient information for Acquiror to comply with the covenant in this Section 8.05(e). Without limiting the foregoing, in the case of long term disability insurance coverage, Acquiror shall only be required to take commercially reasonable actions to comply with the covenant in this Section 8.05(e).

(f) Contributor shall retain and be solely liable for all liabilities arising under Contributor Benefit Plans whether such obligations and liabilities arise on, prior to, or after the Closing Date.

Nothing contained in this Section 8.05 or any other provision of this Agreement, (i) shall be construed to establish, amend, or modify any Benefit Plan, or (ii) create any third-party beneficiary rights or obligations in any Person (including any Business Employee or Continuing Employee), including with respect to (A) any right to employment or continued employment or to a particular term or condition of employment with the Acquiror, Midstream or any of their respective Affiliates and (B) the ability of the Acquiror or any of its Affiliates (including, following the Closing Date, Midstream) to amend, modify, or terminate any Benefit Plan.

Section 8.06 Construction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Acquiror agrees that after the Closing, Acquiror and Midstream are solely responsible for all Construction Costs, other than Paid Construction Costs, whether incurred prior to or after the Closing, including without limitation all costs and expenses pursuant to the Construction Contract or any other Contract with any other Third Party vendor relating to the construction of the Pawnee Terminal.

- 60 -

Section 8.07 Confidentiality.

(a) Upon the Closing, confidential information of Midstream shall be deemed to be confidential information of Acquiror and not any Contributor, and Acquiror shall have no further obligation under the Confidentiality Agreement.

(b) Each Contributor acknowledges that the success of Midstream after the Closing depends upon the continued preservation of the confidentiality of certain information possessed by such Contributor, that the preservation of the confidentiality of such information by such Contributor is an essential premise of the bargain between such Contributor and Acquiror, and that Acquiror would be unwilling to enter into this Agreement in the absence of this Section 8.07(b). Accordingly, each Contributor hereby agrees with Acquiror that it, its Affiliates and its and its Affiliate’s respective Representatives shall not, and that it shall cause its Affiliates and such Representatives not to, at any time on or after the Closing Date, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Acquiror, disclose or use, any information involving or relating to Midstream; provided, that the information subject to this Section 8.07(b) will not include any information generally available to, or known by, the public (other than as a result of disclosure in violation hereof); provided, further, that the provisions of this Section 8.07(b) will not prohibit any retention of copies of records or disclosure (i) required by any applicable Law so long as reasonable prior notice is given to Acquiror and Midstream of such disclosure and a reasonable opportunity is afforded Acquiror and Midstream to contest the same or (ii) made in connection with the enforcement of any right or remedy relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Contributor agrees that it shall be responsible for any breach or violation of the provisions of this Section 8.07(b) by any of its Affiliates or its or its Affiliates’ Representatives.

Section 8.08 Further Assurances. After the Closing, the Parties, and their respective Affiliates and Representatives, shall cooperate with each other and use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish any additional information and execute and deliver any additional documents as may be reasonably requested by the other Party to further perfect or evidence the consummation of, or otherwise implement, any of the transactions contemplated hereby, or to aid in the preparation or performance of any Contract, Permit, regulatory filing, financial statement or Tax Return or to mitigate any Liability.

Section 8.09 Transition Services. For a period of ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, UET shall provide to Acquiror with respect to Midstream information technology, accounting and other administrative services as reasonably requested by Acquiror and to the extent reasonably necessary for the operation of the business of Midstream and transition of the ownership of Midstream to Acquiror. Acquiror shall reimburse UET for all (i) reasonable and documented time expended by those of its employees providing services pursuant to this Section 8.09 in accordance with the hourly rate schedule set forth in Schedule 8.09 and (ii) reasonable, documented third party fees and expenses incurred by UET in providing any service pursuant to this Section 8.09, provided that, UET shall obtain the written consent of Acquiror prior to incurring any reimbursable costs, fees or expenses pursuant to this Section 8.09 that exceed $10,000 in the aggregate, provided further that UET is not required to provide any service for which Acquiror does not approve of the cost and agree to reimburse UET therefor. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any such services to be provided by UET to Acquiror with respect to

- 61 -

Midstream, in accordance with this Section 8.09 are transitional in nature and are intended to provide Acquiror sufficient time to integrate the Midstream operations into its business. To the extent such services are rendered by UET, each of the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) assist and cooperate with each other in the orderly transfer of the provision of such services to Acquiror or Midstream, as applicable, and (b) make available, or cause to be made available, the documentation, personnel and know-how reasonably needed to facilitate such orderly transfer.

Section 8.10 Removal of Legend. In connection with the sale of the Partnership Interests by a Contributor in reliance on Rule 144, the applicable Contributor or its broker shall deliver to the transfer agent and the Partnership a customary broker representation letter providing to the transfer agent and the Partnership any information the Partnership deems reasonably necessary to determine that the sale of the Partnership Interests is made in compliance with Rule 144, including, as may be appropriate, a certification that the Contributor is not an Affiliate of the Partnership and regarding the length of time the Partnership Interests have been held. Upon receipt of such representation letter, the Partnership shall promptly direct its transfer agent to remove the notation of a restrictive legend in such Contributor’s book-entry account maintained by the transfer agent, including the legend referred to in Section 3.11, and the Partnership shall bear all costs associated therewith. After any Contributor or its permitted assigns has held the Partnership Interests for such period as will allow such Contributor to sell such Partnership Interests without volume restrictions or public company information requirements pursuant to any section of Rule 144 (or any similar provision then in effect), if the book-entry account of such Partnership Interests still bears the notation of the restrictive legend referred to in Section 3.11, the Partnership agrees, upon request of the Contributor or permitted assignee, to take all reasonable steps necessary to promptly effect the removal of the legend described in Section 3.11 from the Partnership Interests, and the Partnership shall bear all costs associated therewith, regardless of whether the request is made in connection with a sale or otherwise, so long as such Contributor or its permitted assigns provide to the Partnership any information the Partnership deems reasonably necessary to determine that the legend is no longer required under the Securities Act or applicable state laws, including a certification that the holder is not an Affiliate of the Partnership (and a covenant to inform the Partnership if it should thereafter become an Affiliate and to consent to the notation of an appropriate restriction) and regarding the length of time the Partnership Interests have been held.

Section 8.11 Cooperation Regarding Certain Financial Statements. The Contributors shall make (and cause their Affiliates to make) available to Acquiror such books and records and information, and provide such assistance to Acquiror and cooperate with Acquiror, in each case as shall be reasonably requested by Acquiror in connection with the preparation by Acquiror after the Closing of such financial statements in such form and for such periods as may be required pursuant to the requirements of Regulation S-X of the SEC or other applicable U.S. federal securities Laws relating to Acquiror’s acquisition of the Midstream Interests.
