ARTICLE 3

TERM OF AGREEMENT; MAXIMUM INVENTORY VALUE

3.1 Term. This Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Date and, subject to Section 2.1, the Commencement Date shall occur on December 30, 2022. Subject to Section 3.2, the term of this Agreement shall continue for a period ending at 11:59:59 p.m., CPT on December 30, 2024 (the “Term”; the last day of such Term being herein referred to as the “Expiration Date”, except as provided in Section 3.2).

3.2 Changing the Term. Citi may, in its sole discretion elect to extend this Agreement until December 30, 2025; provided that such election shall not be effective unless, no later than six (6) months prior to the Expiration Date, Citi gives DKTS written notice of such election in accordance with Article 28; and provided further that if as of either (i) the date on which Citi elects to extend this Agreement or (ii) the date on which this Agreement is to be extended pursuant to such election, the long-term, senior, unsecured debt of the Citi Guarantor is rated below BBB- by S&P or Baa3 by Moody’s, then DKTS must agree in writing to extend this Agreement.

3.3 Maximum Inventory Value. If on any day the Inventory Value, excluding the Asphalt Product Group, exceeds USD 750,000,000, as calculated by Citi (the “Maximum Inventory Value”), Citi agrees to promptly notify DKTS thereof and within five (5) Business Days, DKTS shall post one or more Letters of Credit (a “Section 3.3 Letter of Credit”) in an aggregate amount at least equal to the amount by which the Inventory Value for such day exceeds the

 

29


Maximum Inventory Value (the “Excess Value”). Upon posting such Section 3.3 Letter(s) of Credit, the Maximum Inventory Value shall be deemed to be the sum of USD 750,000,000 and the undrawn amount of any Section 3.3 Letter(s) of Credit. On the date that is 30 (thirty) calendar days after the date on which a Section 3.3 Letter of Credit is posted (and at the end of each subsequent 30 (thirty) day period), Citi shall calculate the average of the Maximum Inventory Value for each of the prior thirty (30) days (the “Average Maximum Inventory Value”). If the Average Maximum Inventory Value (“A”) exceeds the Maximum Inventory Value (“B”) by an amount (“C”) less than Excess Value (“D”), then Citi shall within five (5) Business Days consent to a reduction in the undrawn amount of such Section 3.3 Letter(s) of Credit in an aggregate amount equal to D minus C (“E”), and the “Excess Value” and undrawn amount of such Section 3.3 Letter of Credit shall then be C. If A is less than or equal to B, the Section 3.3 Letter of Credit shall be returned to DKTS for cancellation within five (5) Business Days. If DKTS fails to post one or more Section 3.3 Letter(s) of Credit as required under this Section 3.3, Citi shall not be obligated to purchase and sell any Crude Oil or Product (as the case may be); provided that upon DKTS posting such Section 3.3 Letter of Credit, Citi’s obligation to purchase and sell Crude Oil and Product, other than the Asphalt Product Group (as the case may be) shall resume.

3.4 Maximum Asphalt Fixed Price Repo Value. If on any day the Asphalt Fixed Price Repo Value exceeds USD 50,000,000 as calculated by Citi (the “Maximum Asphalt Fixed Price Repo Value”), Citi agrees to promptly notify DKTS thereof and within five (5) Business Days, DKTS shall post one or more Letters of Credit (a “Section 3.4 Letter of Credit”) in an aggregate amount at least equal to the amount by which the Asphalt Fixed Price Repo Value for such day exceeds the Maximum Asphalt Fixed Price Repo Value (the “Excess Asphalt Value”). Upon posting such Section 3.4 Letter(s) of Credit, the Maximum Asphalt Fixed Price Repo Value shall be deemed to be the sum of USD 50,000,000 and the undrawn amount of any Section 3.4 Letter(s) of Credit. On the date that is 30 (thirty) calendar days after the date on which a Section 3.4 Letter of Credit is posted (and at the end of each subsequent 30 (thirty) day period), Citi shall calculate the average of the Maximum Asphalt Fixed Price Repo Value for each of the prior thirty (30) days (the “Average Maximum Asphalt Inventory Value”). If the Average Maximum Asphalt Inventory Value (“A”) exceeds the Maximum Asphalt Fixed Price Repo Value (“B”) by an amount (“C”) less than Excess Asphalt Value (“D”), then Citi shall within five (5) Business Days consent to a reduction in the undrawn amount of such Section 3.4 Letter(s) of Credit in an aggregate amount equal to D minus C (“E”), and the “Excess Asphalt Value” and undrawn amount of such Section 3.4 Letter of Credit shall then be C. If A is less than or equal to B, the Section 3.4 Letter of Credit shall be returned to DKTS for cancellation within five (5) Business Days. If DKTS fails to post one or more Section 3.4 Letter(s) of Credit as required under this Section 3.4, Citi shall not be obligated to purchase and sell any Asphalt Product (as the case may be); provided that upon DKTS posting such Section 3.4 Letter of Credit, Citi’s obligation to purchase and sell Asphalt Product shall resume.

3.5 Obligations upon Termination. In connection with the termination of the Agreement on the Expiration Date, the Parties shall perform their obligations relating to termination pursuant to Article 21.

3.6 Initial Hedging Costs. The parties acknowledge and agree that, upon agreement of the Base Layer Volumes in accordance with Section 8.1 of this Agreement, Citi will execute Hedging Transactions after the Effective Date but prior to, and in anticipation of, the Commencement Date. Such Hedging Transactions will be based on the applicable Base Layer Volumes for the initial calendar month of the Term. In the event that the Commencement Date does not occur on December 30, 2022, Citi shall promptly unwind such Hedging Transactions in a commercially reasonable manner and shall calculate its costs associated with acquiring, establishing, unwinding or disposing of such Hedging Transactions (“Initial Hedging Costs”). Initial Hedging Costs shall be expressed in USD and the calculation thereof shall include all losses and costs that are incurred by Citi in establishing and unwinding such Hedging Transactions (expressed as a positive number) all gains that are realized by Citi in unwinding such Hedging Transactions (expressed as a negative number). Such statement of calculation will contain sufficient detail and information reasonably required to identify each Hedging Transaction, price at entry and at unwind and any associated fees. Any such statement of calculation will be binding on the Parties absent manifest error. If the Initial Hedging Costs is a positive number, the amount thereof shall be owing by DKTS to Citi, and if it is a negative number, the absolute value thereof shall be owing by Citi to DKTS, in either case, promptly, and in any event, not later than three (3) Business Days from the date on which Citi delivers its statement of calculation of the Initial Hedging Costs.

ARTICLE 4

COMMENCEMENT DATE TRANSFER

4.1 Transfer and Payment on the Commencement Date.

11.1 Daily Settlement Amounts.

(a) Citi shall determine, for each Refinery and each Product Group on each day, a daily settlement amount (“Daily Settlement Amount”) equal to (i) the sum of, for each Product Group (other than the Crude Oil Product Group), the Daily Net Product Sales Volume for such Product times the applicable Daily Value plus (ii) the product of (A) the Daily Net Crude Sales Volume and (B) the applicable Daily Value minus (iii) in respect of all Product Groups and all Refineries, an estimate of Ancillary Costs, which shall be denoted as a positive number, for such day to the extent not directly invoiced to the Delek Entities, subject to the terms and conditions herein. The Daily Settlement Amount for each Refinery shall be aggregated and if such Aggregate Daily Settlement Amount is a positive number, such aggregate amount shall be due from Citi to DKTS and if such aggregate amount is a negative number, then the absolute value thereof shall be due from DKTS to Citi, in each case, on the Business Day immediately following the date on which Citi invoices DKTS of the Aggregate Daily Settlement Amount.

With respect to the foregoing calculations and determinations:

(i) if inventory data needed for the applicable invoice date per Schedule E has not been reported Citi will (other than with respect to Ratable Crude Oil – Pipelines Purchases and Ratable Crude Oil – Pipelines Sales) use the inventory data for the day occurring during the thirty (30) day period preceding such calendar day that results in the smallest Daily Net Crude Sales Volume or the smallest Daily Net Product Sales Volume (as the case may be); and

 

48


(ii) if Citi determines a Daily Settlement Amount using any inventory data covered by sub-section (i) above or determines that any inventory data it has used in such determination was inaccurate, then Citi may, at its option, adjust future Daily Settlement Amounts (not more than once per calendar week) to take account of any corrected inventory data or any inventory data that, if available, would have complied with sub-section (i) above.

(b) For any Business Day, the Daily Settlement Amount to be determined and invoiced by Citi shall be the Daily Settlement Amount for that day; provided that if such Business Day is followed by one or more non-Business Days (whether weekends or Bank Holidays), then Citi shall reasonably determine and advise to DKTS the Daily Settlement Amount for that Business Day as well as the Daily Settlement Amount for each of such following non-Business Days and all such Daily Settlement Amounts shall be due on the Business Day immediately following the date on which Citi invoices DKTS of the Aggregate Daily Settlement Amount.

49


(viii) any other amount then due from DKTS to Citi under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and which is attributable to such Refinery.

The Monthly True-Up Amount for each Product Group and each Refinery shall be aggregated into a single amount and if such aggregate Monthly True-Up Amount is a positive number, such aggregate amount shall be due from Citi to DKTS and if such aggregate amount is a negative number, then the absolute value thereof shall be due from DKTS to Citi, in each case, on the twenty-fifth (25th) calendar day after the end of the month for which such Monthly True-Up Amount has been determined or if such calendar day is not a Business Day, the immediately following day which is a Business Day (the “Monthly True-Up Payment Date”); provided that if Citi has not provided DKTS with a monthly invoice detailing such aggregate Monthly True-Up Amount (including all related documentation supporting the invoiced amount) by the third (3rd) Business Day immediately preceding the Monthly True-Up Payment Date, then DKTS shall pay the Monthly True-Up Amount within three (3) Business Days after receipt of such monthly invoice and related supporting documentation. If the Monthly True-Up Amount is an amount payable by Citi to DKTS, Citi shall (without double counting of any amounts already accounted for in sub-section (viii) above) reduce the Monthly True-Up Amount by an amount equal to any fees due and owing as of the Monthly True-Up Payment Date from DKTS to Citi pursuant to the Fee Letter.

(b) For purposes of determining the amounts due under sub-sections (i) and (ii) of Section 11.2(a), the definitions and formulas set forth on Schedule C shall apply.

(c) For purposes of determining the Daily Value, the Target Deviation Settlement for all Product Groups, the Index Amount and the Price, the definitions and formulas set forth on Schedule B shall apply.

11.3 Deferred Amounts.

(a) On the Commencement Date, and in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, DKTS shall cause to be issued to Citi a Letter of Credit in an initial face amount of USD 70,000,000 (such Letter of Credit, the “Initial Deferral LC” and such amount, the “Initial Deferred Amount”), and Citi shall advance to DKTS the Initial Deferred Amount for the purpose of facilitating the payment by DKTS of amounts owing or that may become owing, or which are or may be required to be posted as Posted Collateral, under Articles 8, 9, 11, and 12.

(b) Upon prior written notice to Citi (such prior written notice to be given at least ten (10) Business Days before each Monthly True-Up Payment Date), DKTS shall have the right to defer payment of all or a portion of any outstanding Deferred Amount until or, in the event the outstanding Deferred Amount is less than USD 70,000,000, request that Citi advance funds for the purpose of facilitating the payment by DKTS of amounts owing or that may become owing, or which are or may be required to be posted as Posted Collateral, under Articles 8, 9, 11, and 12, on (the date of such deferral or request for an advance, the “Deferral Date”), the Monthly True-Up Payment Date occurring during the next following calendar month (the amount of each such deferred payment or advance pursuant to this Section 11.3(b), a “Subsequent Deferred Amount” and together with the Initial Deferred Amount, each a “Deferred Amount”), in an amount not greater than the lesser of (i) USD 70,000,000 and (ii) the amount by which (A) the undrawn amount of all Deferral LCs exceeds (B) the outstanding Deferred Amount, in each case, as of the Deferral Date.

 

50


(c) The repayment and/or advance of any Deferred Amount shall be incorporated as a component of the Monthly True-Up Amount as the Net Deferred Amount Payment. If the Net Deferred Amount Payment is a positive number, such payment shall represent an amount due from DKTS to Citi and if the Net Deferred Amount Payment is a negative number, such payment shall represent an amount due from Citi to DKTS and, in each case, shall be subtracted in the calculation of the Monthly True-Up Amount.

(d) For the purposes hereof, “Net Deferred Amount Payment” means:

(i) in respect of the initial Monthly True-Up Amount and Monthly True-Up Payment Date, (A) the Initial Deferred Amount minus (B) the Subsequent Deferred Amount in respect of the such Monthly True-Up Payment Date; and

(ii) in respect of each Monthly True-Up Amount and Monthly True-Up Payment Date thereafter, (A) the Subsequent Deferred Amount in respect of the immediately preceding Monthly True-Up Payment Date minus (B) the Subsequent Deferred Amount in respect of such Monthly True-Up Payment Date.

For the avoidance of doubt, if no Subsequent Deferred Amount has been notified in respect of a Monthly True-Up Payment Date then for the purposes of determining the Net Deferred Amount Payment for such Monthly True-Up Payment Date, the Subsequent Deferred Amount shall be deemed to be zero, and the Net Deferred Amount Payment shall equal the then outstanding Deferred Amount for the purposes of calculating the Monthly True-Up Amount.

11.4 Fees. As additional consideration for the arrangements contemplated hereby, DKTS agrees to pay to Citi, as and when due, all fees provided for in the Fee Letter.

11.5 Invoices.

(a) Invoices shall be prepared and submitted in accordance with the timing set out on Schedule E.

(b) If DKTS in good faith disputes the amount of any invoice issued by Citi relating to any amount payable hereunder (including Daily Settlement Amounts, Monthly True-Up Amounts or Ancillary Costs), DKTS shall nonetheless pay Citi the full amount of such invoice by the due date and shall inform Citi in writing of the portion of the invoice with which it disagrees and why it disagrees; provided that, to the extent that DKTS promptly informs Citi of a calculation error that is obvious on its face, DKTS shall pay Citi the undisputed amount of such invoice and may retain such disputed amount pending resolution of such dispute. DKTS and Citi shall cooperate in resolving the dispute expeditiously. If DKTS and Citi agree that DKTS does not owe some or all of the disputed amount or if a court of competent jurisdiction makes such a determination pursuant to Article 26, then to the extent such amount was previously paid by DKTS, Citi shall return

 

51


such disputed amount to DKTS, together with interest at the Fed Funds Rate from the date such amount was originally paid, within two (2) Business Days from, as appropriate, the date of their agreement or the date of the final, non-appealable decision of such court. Following resolution of any such disputed amount, Citi will issue a corrected invoice and any residual payment that would be required thereby will be made by the appropriate Party within two (2) Business Days.

11.6 Interest.

(a) If any amount payable by DKTS or Parent under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document is not paid when due, whether at its scheduled payment date, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Default Interest Rate (calculated on the basis of actual days elapsed over a three-hundred sixty (360) day year).

(b) For so long as any Event of Default with respect to a Delek Entity has occurred and is continuing, interest shall accrue on a daily basis for such period (“Exposure Default Interest”) at the Default Interest Rate on Citi’s daily aggregate exposure to the Delek Entities under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, as determined by Citi in a commercially reasonable manner; provided that such Exposure Default Interest shall be determined without duplication of any other interest accruing hereunder, including interest accruing at the Default Interest Rate under Section 11.6(a).

(c) Any Default Interest Rate interest accruing under Section 11.6(a) or Exposure Default Interest accruing Section 11.6(b) shall be due to Citi on demand or, absent such demand, monthly and shall continue to accrue after occurrence of any Event of Default under Section 20.1(d) hereof, whether or not allowed or allowable in any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding.

11.7 Payment in Full in Same Day Funds. All payments to be made under this Agreement shall be made by telegraphic transfer of same day funds in USD to such bank account at such bank as the payee shall designate in writing to the payor from time to time. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, all payments shall be made in full without discount, offset, withholding, counterclaim or deduction whatsoever for any claims which a Party may now have or hereafter acquire against any other Party, whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise.

ARTICLE 12

COLLATERAL

12.1 On each Business Day during the Term, Citi shall calculate its Exposure and Ad-Hoc Exposure, each as indicated on Schedule S, pursuant to this Agreement (each such day, a “Valuation Date”). Upon a demand made by Citi, in its capacity as secured party hereunder, and in accordance with the collateral provisions below, DKTS, in its capacity as pledgor hereunder, shall Transfer Eligible Collateral in the amount specified in this Article 12. If required under Section 17.4(a), Citi, in its capacity as pledgor hereunder, shall Transfer Eligible Collateral in an amount equal to the Inventory Business Interruption Cash Proceeds and DKTS shall be the secured party in respect thereof.

 

52


12.2 Collateral Provisions.

(a) Each of DKTS and Citi, as the Pledgor, hereby pledges to the other party, as the Secured Party, as security for its Hedging Obligations (in the case of DKTS) and its Obligations (in the case of Citi), and grants to the Secured Party a first priority continuing security interest in, lien on and right of set-off against all Posted Collateral consisting of Cash Transferred to or received by the Secured Party hereunder. Each of DKTS and Citi, as the Pledgor, hereby pledges to the other party, as the Secured Party, as security for its Obligations, and grants to the Secured Party a first priority continuing security interest in, lien on and right of set-off against all Posted Collateral other than Cash. Upon the Transfer by the Secured Party to Pledgor of Posted Collateral, the security interest and lien granted hereunder on that Posted Collateral will be released immediately and, to the extent possible, without any further action by either party. Any Cash posted under this Article 12 by DKTS secures only Hedging Obligations and not any Non-Hedging Obligations.

(b) Upon a demand made by Citi on or promptly following a Valuation Date, if the Delivery Amount for that Valuation Date equals or exceeds DKTS’s Minimum Transfer Amount, then DKTS will Transfer to Citi Eligible Collateral having a Value as of the date of Transfer at least equal to the applicable Delivery Amount. If required under Section 17.4(a), Citi, as Pledgor, shall Transfer to DKTS as Secured Party Eligible Collateral in an amount equal to the Inventory Business Interruption Cash Proceeds.

(c) Upon a demand made by DKTS on or promptly following a Valuation Date, if the Return Amount for that Valuation Date equals or exceeds Citi’s Minimum Transfer Amount, then Citi will Transfer to DKTS Posted Collateral specified by the Pledgor in that demand having a Value as of the date of Transfer as close as practicable to the applicable Return Amount.

(d) Unless otherwise specified, if a demand for the Transfer of Eligible Collateral or Posted Collateral is made by 9:00 a.m., CPT on a Business Day, then the relevant Transfer will be made no later than the close of business on the next Business Day; if a demand is made after 9:00 a.m., CPT on a Business Day or on a date which is not a Business Day, then the relevant Transfer will be made no later than the close of business on the second Business Day thereafter. In respect of Eligible Collateral in the form of Letters of Credit, any demand made by Citi as Secured Party, regardless of timing, shall be deemed to be made after 9:00 a.m., CPT on a Business Day or on a date which is not a Business Day, and DKTS, as Pledgor, shall use reasonably best efforts to Transfer such Eligible Collateral in the form of Letters of Credit no later than the close of business on the next Business Day thereafter. In connection therewith, DKTS, as Pledgor, agrees that it shall copy Citi, as Secured Party, on any request made by DKTS to the issuer of such Letter of Credit in respect of the issuance of a Letter of Credit pursuant to this Section 12.2(d). If Citi shall have received Inventory Business Interruption Cash Proceeds as described in Section 17.4, it shall Transfer Eligible Collateral in the amount of the Inventory Business Interruption Cash Proceeds no later than the close of business on the next Business Day.

 

53


(e) In respect of Citi, as Secured Party and DKTS as Pledgor, all calculations of Value, Exposure and Ad-Hoc Exposure will be made by Citi as of close of business in New York on the Business Day before the Valuation Date.

(f) The Secured Party is entitled to hold all Posted Collateral and in doing so, the Secured Party will exercise reasonable care to assure the safe custody of all Posted Collateral to the extent required by applicable law, and in any event, the Secured Party will be deemed to have exercised reasonable care if it exercises at least the same degree of care as it would exercise with respect to its own property. Except as specified in the preceding sentence, the Secured Party will have no duty with respect to Posted Collateral, including, without limitation, any duty to collect any Distributions, or enforce or preserve any rights pertaining thereto.

(g) The Secured Party shall, notwithstanding Section 9-207 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, have the right to sell, pledge, assign, invest, use, commingle or otherwise dispose of, or otherwise use in its business any Posted Collateral it holds, free from any claim or right of any nature whatsoever of the Pledgor, including any equity or right of redemption by the Pledgor and register any Posted Collateral in the name of the Secured Party or a nominee. For purposes of the obligation to Transfer Eligible Collateral or Posted Collateral and any rights and remedies hereunder, the Secured Party shall be deemed to continue to hold all Posted Collateral and to receive Distributions thereon, regardless of whether the Secured Party has exercised any rights with respect to any Posted Collateral.

(h) If the Secured Party receives or is deemed to receive Distributions on a Business Day, it will Transfer to the Pledgor not later than the following Business Day any Distributions it receives or is deemed to receive to the extent that a Delivery Amount would not be created or increased by the Transfer, as calculated by the Secured Party (and the date of calculation will be deemed to be a Valuation Date for this purpose).

(i) In lieu of any interest, dividends or other amounts paid or deemed to have been paid with respect to Posted Collateral in the form of Cash (all of which may be retained by the Secured Party), the Secured Party will Transfer to the Pledgor on the last Business Day of each calendar month and on any Business Day that Posted Collateral in the form of Cash is Transferred to the Pledgor hereunder, the Interest Amount to the extent that a Delivery Amount would not be created or increased by that Transfer, as calculated by the Secured Party (and the date of calculation will be deemed to be a Valuation Date for this purpose). The Interest Amount or portion thereof not transferred in accordance with this paragraph will constitute Posted Collateral in the form of Cash and will be subject to the security interest granted above.

 

54


(j) If at any time an Event of Default with respect to the Pledgor has occurred and is continuing, then, subject to Section 12.2(p), unless the Pledgor has paid in full all of its Obligations that are then due, the Secured Party may exercise one or more of the following rights and remedies:

(i) all rights and remedies available to a secured party under applicable law with respect to Posted Collateral held by the Secured Party; and

(ii) the right to set-off any amounts payable by the Pledgor with respect to any of its Obligations against any Posted Collateral or the Cash equivalent of any Posted Collateral held by the Secured Party (or any obligation of the Secured Party to Transfer that Posted Collateral).

(k) If at any time an Event of Default with respect to the Secured Party has occurred and is continuing, then, unless the Secured Party has paid in full all of its Obligations that are then due under this Agreement, then:

(i) the Pledgor (if Citi) may exercise all rights and remedies available to a pledgor under applicable law with respect to Posted Collateral held by it consisting of Cash in respect of Hedging Obligations and to any Posted Collateral held by it other than Cash in respect of Obligations; provided that this Section 12.2(k)(i) shall not limit any rights which Citi may have as Pledgor in respect of Inventory Business Interruption Cash Proceeds;

(ii) the Pledgor (if DKTS) may exercise all rights and remedies available to a pledgor under applicable law with respect to Posted Collateral held by it; and

(iii) the Secured Party will be obligated immediately to Transfer all Posted Collateral consisting of Cash and the Interest Amount to the Pledgor, return to Pledgor marked for cancellation any Posted Collateral consisting of Letter(s) of Credit then held by Secured Party and Transfer all other Posted Collateral other than Cash and, to the extent that such amounts are not Transferred or Letter(s) of Credit are not returned in accordance herewith, the Pledgor may set-off any amounts payable by the Pledgor with respect to any Obligations against any Posted Collateral consisting of Cash or the Cash equivalent of any Posted Collateral other than Cash (or any obligation of the Secured Party to Transfer that Posted Collateral) or against the face amount of any Posted Collateral consisting of Letter(s) of Credit.

(l) The Secured Party will Transfer to Pledgor any proceeds and Posted Collateral remaining after liquidation, set-off and/or application as indicated above after satisfaction in full of all amounts payable by the Pledgor with respect to any of its Obligations; Pledgor in all events will remain liable for any amounts remaining unpaid after any liquidation, set-off and/or application as indicated above.

(m) When no amounts are or thereafter may become payable by the Pledgor with respect to any of its Obligations, the Secured Party will Transfer to Pledgor all Posted Collateral and the Interest Amount, if any.

(n) Without duplication of the provisions contained in Article 16, Pledgor will promptly pay when due all taxes, assessments or charges of any nature that are imposed with respect to Posted Collateral held by the Secured Party upon becoming aware of the same, regardless of whether any portion of that Posted Collateral is subsequently disposed hereunder, except for those taxes, assessments and charges that result from the exercise of the Secured Party’s rights under Section 12.2(h).

 

55


(o) All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of the Secured Party or Pledgor in connection with the liquidation and/or application of any Posted Collateral hereunder will be payable, on demand by the Defaulting Party.

(p) Citi and DKTS agree that (i) any Cash posted by DKTS hereunder secures Hedging Obligations only and Citi shall exercise its rights and remedies hereunder in respect of Posted Collateral consisting of Cash solely in support of such Obligations and (ii) any Posted Collateral other than Cash posted by DKTS hereunder secure Obligations and Citi shall exercise its rights and remedies hereunder in respect of Posted Collateral consisting of such Eligible Collateral in support of such Obligations.

(q) With respect to demands made for Eligible Collateral, DKTS may provide Citi Letter(s) of Credit in satisfaction of its posting obligations under this Article 12. The Parties acknowledge that the posting of Letter(s) of Credit for purposes of Exposure or Ad-Hoc Exposure amounts that may fluctuate daily is administratively burdensome for both Parties. Accordingly, when and if a demand is made hereunder for Eligible Collateral, DKTS intends, but is not obligated, to post Letter(s) of Credit with a Value in excess of the required Delivery Amount. In such circumstances, DKTS will have the right to request that Citi consent to a reduction of the undrawn amount of any such Letter(s) of Credit, or a return thereof, to the extent that the undrawn amount thereof exceeds the required Credit Support Amount from time to time, and Citi agrees that it shall provide such consent. If requested by DKTS (such request not to be made more than once quarterly), Citi and DKTS shall discuss in good faith implementing alternative approaches for providing Letter(s) of Credit in order to reduce the administrative burdens and costs of providing such Letter(s) of Credit.

(n) “Threshold” means:

(ii) A Letter of Credit shall provide that Citi may draw upon the Letter of Credit in an amount (up to the face amount for which the Letter of Credit has been issued) that is equal to all amounts that are due and owing from DKTS and, if applicable, any other Delek Entity and which have not been paid to Citi within the time allowed for such payments under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (including any related notice or grace period or both). A Letter of Credit shall provide that a drawing shall be made on the Letter of Credit upon submission to the bank issuing the Letter of Credit of one or more certificates specifying the amounts due and owing to Citi in accordance with the specific requirements of the Letter of Credit.

(iv) Provided no Default (of which Citi has provided notice to the Delek Entities) or Event of Default by any Delek Entity has occurred and is continuing, upon request by DKTS, Citi shall cooperate with DKTS in a commercially reasonable manner to implement a reduction of the available amount under any outstanding Letters of Credit that have been provided to Citi hereunder; provided that if any minimum available amount requirement is applicable hereunder with respect to such Letters of Credit, no such reduction shall be made that results in the aggregate available amount thereunder being less than such minimum available amount requirement.

(v) To the extent that Citi makes a drawing under any Letter of Credit and retains any portion of such drawn amount as cash collateral and margin to secure the prompt and complete the payment and performance of all of the Delek Entities’ obligations hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, DKTS further agrees that Citi shall have, and hereby grants to Citi, a present and continuing security interest in and to, and a general first lien upon and right of set off against, such cash amount and all interest and other proceeds from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect thereof, or in exchange therefor. Notwithstanding any provisions of Applicable Law, Citi shall have the right to sell, pledge, rehypothecate, assign, invest, use, commingle or otherwise use in its business all or any portion of such retained cash amount, free from any claim or right of any nature whatsoever of any Delek Entity, including any equity or right of redemption by any Delek Entity. Nothing in this Section 14.4(b) shall limit any rights of Citi under any other provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, under Article 20.

(vi) With respect to any Letter of Credit that, in addition to the Initial Deferral LC, is intended to be a Deferral LC for purposes of this Agreement, DKTS shall identify to Citi in writing that such Letter of Credit is a Deferral LC. Any Letter of Credit not so identified shall not constitute a Deferral LC for such purpose. A Deferral LC may only be provided to Citi on the Commencement Date.

(vii) With respect to any Section 3.3 Letter of Credit that is intended to be a Section 3.3 Letter of Credit for purposes of Section 3.3 or a Section 3.4 Letter of Credit that is intended to be a Section 3.4 Letter of Credit for purposes of Section 3.4, DKTS shall identify to Citi in writing that such Letter of Credit is a Section 3.3 Letter of Credit or a Section 3.4 Letter of Credit, as applicable. Any Letter of Credit not so identified shall not constitute a Section 3.3 Letter of Credit or a Section 3.4 Letter of Credit for such purpose.

(c) Nothing in this Section 14.4 shall limit any rights of Citi under any other provision of this Agreement, including under Article 20.

14.5 Adequate Assurances. If, during the Term of this Agreement, a Material Adverse Change has occurred and is then continuing or a Ratio Trigger has occurred, Citi may notify DKTS thereof and demand in writing that DKTS provide (or causes a Delek Entity to provide) to Citi adequate assurance of such Delek Entity’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder (the “Adequate Assurance”).

 

63


Such Adequate Assurance may take the form of:

(a) a prepayment by DKTS to Citi in respect of any Settlement Amount (as applicable) which would be payable by DKTS to Citi if this Agreement were to be terminated as of such date;

(b) a Letter of Credit;

(c) a third party guarantee reasonably satisfactory to Citi (as to form, substance, and guarantor); and/or

(d) cash to be held as Posted Collateral,

(each of sub-sections (a) through (d) above, an “Acceptable Form”) and shall be in an amount that is equal to the greater of (i) USD 25,000,000 and (ii) 12.5% of the Average Inventory Value as of the date of calculation (the “Acceptable Amount”).

If Citi has required Adequate Assurance to be delivered in respect of a Ratio Trigger and, in any subsequent calendar quarter after the occurrence of such Ratio Trigger, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is greater than 1.2:1.0, then Citi shall return to DKTS any Adequate Assurance provided by DKTS to Citi within five (5) Business Days after notice from DKTS of such Ratio Trigger cure.

If Adequate Assurance in an Acceptable Form and in an amount equal to (or greater than) the Acceptable Amount is not received or an amount equal to the Acceptable Amount is not prepaid within ten (10) Business Days from the date of demand by Citi, then such failure shall constitute an Event of Default by each Delek Entity required to provide the relevant Adequate Assurance under sub-section (i) of Section 20.1 in respect of which DKTS shall be the Defaulting Party.

ARTICLE 15

REFINERY TURNAROUND, MAINTENANCE AND CLOSURE

15.1 The Refinery Companies shall (and DKTS shall cause each applicable Refinery Company to) procure that Citi is promptly notified in writing of the date for which any maintenance or turnaround at any Refinery has been scheduled, or any revision to previously scheduled maintenance or turnaround, which may impair receipts of Crude Oil at any Refinery or the Included Locations, the processing of Crude Oil in any Refinery or the delivery of Products to Citi or by Citi to DKTS or any third parties; provided that, (i) promptly after each Refinery Company completes its annual business plan with respect to any year, it shall (and DKTS shall cause such Refinery Company to) notify Citi of any such maintenance or turnaround contemplated with respect to such year and (ii) the Refinery Companies shall (and DKTS shall cause each applicable Refinery Company to) procure that Citi is given at least two (2) months’ prior written notice of any such scheduled maintenance or turnaround.

15.2 The Refinery Companies shall (and DKTS shall cause each applicable Refinery Company to) procure that Citi is promptly notified orally (followed by prompt written notice) of any previously unscheduled material downtime, maintenance or turnaround and its expected duration.

 

64


15.3 In the event of a scheduled shutdown of any Refinery, the applicable Refinery Company shall (and DKTS shall cause such applicable Refinery Company), to the extent feasible and applicable, complete processing of all Crude Oil being charged to, processed at or consumed in such Refinery at that time.

15.4 Treatment of Identified Facilities.

(a) If at any time Citi’s Independent Engineer determines in writing that all or any portion of the facilities constituting an Included Location (“Identified Facilities”) are no longer being operated in accordance with Prudent Industry Practice, then, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to Citi hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, Citi may provide the Delek Entities with written notice of such determination (together with the written report containing the Independent Engineer’s determination) and, if Citi provides such notice, then (i) following receipt of such written report, the Independent Engineer shall consult in good faith with the Delek Entities for a period of ten (10) days (the “Identified Facilities Consultation Period”) to determine whether based on further information provided by any Delek Entity such Identified Facilities are being operated in accordance with Prudent Industry Practice and/or whether additional actions or procedures can be taken or implemented so that, as a result, such Identified Facilities would be operated in accordance with Prudent Industry Practice, (ii) if by the end of the Identified Facilities Consultation Period it is determined by the Independent Engineer that such Identified Facilities (A) are being operated in accordance with Prudent Industry Practice or, as a result of such additional actions or procedures, the operation of such Identified Facilities become so compliant within the later of (I) the last day of the Identified Facilities Consultation Period and (II) the date falling twenty (20) days after the last day of the Identified Facilities Consultation Period (the Identified Facilities Consultation Period and the twenty (20) days thereafter, collectively, the “Identified Facilities Cure Period”), then no further actions shall be required to be taken by the Delek Entities other than operating the Identified Facilities (or causing the Identified Facilities to be operated) in accordance with Prudent Industry Practice, as supplement by such additional actions or procedures, if applicable, or (B) are not in the further written opinion of the Independent Engineer being operated in accordance with Prudent Industry Practice or, even after the taking of such additional actions or procedures as recommended in writing by the Independent Engineer, the operation of such Identified Facilities in accordance with Prudent Industry Practice will not become so compliant within the Identified Facilities Cure Period, then, subject to Section 15.4(b), such Identified Facility shall cease to constitute an Included Location (or part of an Included Location) for purposes hereof and any payment to Citi in respect of any Crude Oil or Products held in such Identified Facilities shall become due in accordance with the provisions of Article 11 hereof.

(b) In the case of any Identified Facilities referred to in Section 15.4(a)(ii)(B) that are subject to a Required Storage and Transportation Arrangement, the Parties shall endeavor as promptly as reasonably practicable to execute such rights, provide such notices, negotiate such reassignments or terminations and/or take such further actions as Citi deems necessary or appropriate to terminate Citi’s status as the party entitled to use and/or hold Crude Oil or Products at such Identified Facilities and, concurrently with

 

65


effecting the termination of such status, such Identified Facilities shall cease to constitute an Included Location (or part of an Included Location) for purposes hereof and any payment to Citi in respect of any Crude Oil or Products held in such Identified Facilities shall become due in accordance with the provisions of Article 11 hereof.

(c) Each Delek Entity further agrees that it will promptly notify Citi in writing of any Included Location that (i) it removes from service, for any reason and if removal from service is anticipated to be more than thirty (30) days or (ii) has had no bulk movements of Crude Oil or Products during any period of sixty (60) consecutive days or has otherwise been designated or categorized as no longer being active or in use for at least sixty (60) consecutive days and has de minimis inventory and then, in either such case, Citi shall, within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice, advise the Delek Entities whether the tank or pipeline constituting such Included Location shall cease to constitute an Included Location for the purposes hereof. If Citi advises the Delek Entities that any such tank or pipeline is to cease to be an Included Location, such change in status shall occur on the effective date specified by Citi.

(d) If any tank or pipeline has ceased to be an Included Location pursuant to Section 15.4(a), (b) or (c) and thereafter such tank or pipeline is returned to service or reactivated and, in all cases, is being operated in accordance with Prudent Industry Practice (as determined and confirmed in writing by the Independent Engineer), then Citi shall promptly cooperate with the Delek Entities to reestablish such tank or pipeline as an Included Location hereunder.

(e) Each Delek Entity agrees that it will promptly notify Citi in writing of any Included Location that has deviated (or will, with the passage of time, deviate) from the maintenance and inspection schedule attached hereto as Schedule O during the Term.

(f) With respect to any Included Location that is subject to a Required Storage and Transportation Arrangement (other than a Required MLP Arrangement), each Delek Entity shall use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for Citi and the Independent Engineer to be permitted, from time to time, to conduct inspections of such Included Location for purposes of determining whether such Included Location is being operated in accordance with Prudent Industry Practice. If despite such efforts, any Delek Entity unable to make such arrangements with respect to an Included Location, then upon written notice from Citi to the Delek Entities, it shall be deemed that such Included Location is not being operated in accordance with Prudent Industry Practice.

(g) With respect to any Included Location that is owned or operated by a Delek Entity or any MLP Party, such Delek Entity shall from time to time permit or each Delek Entity shall cause a MLP Party to permit Citi and the Independent Engineer to conduct inspections of such Included Location for the purposes of determining whether such Included Location satisfies Prudent Industry Practice. If any Delek Entity fails to comply with the foregoing requirement with respect to any Included Location, then upon written notice from Citi to the Delek Entities, it shall be deemed that such Included Location is not being operated in accordance with Prudent Industry Practice.

ARTICLE 16

TAXES

16.1 DKTS shall pay and indemnify and hold Citi harmless against, the amount of all sales, use, gross receipts, value added, severance, ad valorem, excise, property, spill, environmental, transaction-based, or similar taxes, duties and fees, howsoever designated (each, a “Tax” and collectively, “Taxes”) regardless of the taxing authority, and all penalties and interest thereon, paid, owing, asserted against, or incurred by Citi directly or indirectly with respect to the Crude Oil procured and sold, and the Products purchased and resold, and other transactions contemplated hereunder to the greatest extent permitted by Applicable Law; in the event that DKTS is not permitted to pay such Taxes, the amount due hereunder shall be adjusted such that DKTS bears the economic burden of the Taxes. DKTS shall pay when due such Taxes unless there is an applicable exemption from such Tax, with written confirmation of such Tax exemption to be contemporaneously provided to Citi. To the extent Citi is required by law to collect such Taxes, one hundred percent (100%) of such Taxes shall be added to invoices as separately stated charges and paid in full by DKTS in accordance with this Agreement, unless DKTS is exempt from such Taxes and furnishes Citi with a certificate of exemption; provided, however, that (i) the failure of Citi to separately state or collect Taxes from DKTS shall not alter the liability of DKTS for Taxes and (ii) Citi shall only be liable for Taxes if and to the extent that Taxes have been separately stated and collected from DKTS. Citi shall be responsible for all taxes imposed on Citi’s net income. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes, penalties or interest by Citi to which any Delek Entity shall be required to pay or indemnify or hold Citi harmless for pursuant to this Section 16.1, Citi shall deliver to DKTS (for, and on behalf of, the Delek Entities) the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by the applicable taxing authority evidencing such payment, or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Delek Entities.

16.2 If DKTS disagrees with Citi’s determination that any Tax is due with respect to transactions under this Agreement, DKTS shall have the right to seek a binding administrative determination from the applicable taxing authority, or, alternatively, DKTS shall have the right to contest any asserted claim for such Taxes solely in its own name, subject to its agreeing to indemnify Citi for the entire amount of such contested Tax (including any associated interest and/or late penalties) should such Tax be deemed applicable. Citi agrees to reasonably cooperate with DKTS, at DKTS’s cost and expense, in the event DKTS determines to contest any such Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 16.1, DKTS shall not be obligated to indemnify Citi with respect to any penalties or interest resulting from (and only to the extent of and attributable to) Citi’s gross negligence in preparing and filing any property tax returns that are to be prepared and filed by Citi with respect hereto; provided any information that DKTS has provided to Citi for purposes of such returns is accurate and complete, and made available by DKTS to Citi in a timely manner. If DKTS apprises Citi in a timely manner of any verifiable discounts available for early filing of any such property tax returns that Citi is to file, Citi shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to avail itself of such discounts and if any such discount is obtained, the amount to be indemnified by DKTS under Section 16.1 shall be the discounted amount.

 

67


16.3 Citi and DKTS shall promptly inform each other in writing of any assertion by a taxing authority of additional liability for Taxes in respect of said transactions. Any legal proceedings or any other action against Citi with respect to such asserted liability shall be under Citi’s direction, but DKTS shall be consulted. Any legal proceedings or any other action against DKTS with respect to such asserted liability shall be under DKTS’s direction, but Citi shall be consulted. In any event, the Parties shall fully cooperate with each other as to the asserted liability. A Party (“X”) shall bear all the reasonable costs of any action undertaken by any other Party at the X’s request.

16.4 Any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, this Article 16 shall survive until ninety (90) days after the expiration of the statute of limitations for the assessment, collection, and levy of any Tax.

ARTICLE 17

INSURANCE

17.1 Insurance Coverages. Each Delek Entity shall, to the extent applicable to it, procure and maintain in full force and effect throughout the Term of this Agreement insurance coverages of the following types and amounts and with insurance or reinsurance companies rated not less than A- by A.M. Best or an equivalent rating agency of comparable financial strength:

(b) Commercial General Liability coverage which includes bodily injury, property damage, contractual liability sufficient to fully insure all defense and indemnity obligations hereunder (including Citi’s obligations to any terminal and/or pipeline owner or operator), cross suit liability, and products and completed operations liability coverage in a minimum amount of USD 1,000,000 per occurrence and USD 2,000,000 in the aggregate;

(c) (i) Workers’ Compensation in the amount required by Applicable Law, and (ii) Employer’s Liability with a minimum amount of USD 1,000,000 per accident, USD 1,000,000 per disease, and USD 1,000,000 per employee;

(f) Sudden and Accidental pollution liability in a minimum amount of USD 10,000,000 provided as part of the Commercial General Liability and Umbrella/Excess Liability program and/or as part of a standalone Environmental Liability placement providing equivalent and/or broader coverage.

 

68


17.2 Additional Insurance Requirements.

(a) The foregoing policies in Section 17.1 shall include or provide waiver of subrogation for the benefit of Citi and the insurance shall be primary and non-contributory from Citi’s insurance. The foregoing policies with the exception of those listed in Sections 17.1(a) and 17.1(c)(i) shall include Citi, its subsidiaries, and affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents as additional insured, on a primary and non-contributory basis, including separation of interests provision. The foregoing policy in Section 17.1(a) shall include Citi as loss payee with respect to Crude Oil and Products.

(b) Each Delek Entity shall cause its insurance carriers to furnish Citi with insurance certificates, in ACORD form or equivalent form reasonably satisfactory to Citi, evidencing the existence of the coverages and the endorsements required above. Each Delek Entity shall provide thirty (30) days’ written notice prior to cancellation of insurance becoming effective. Each Delek Entity also shall provide renewal certificates within ten (10) days after expiration of the policy.

(c) The mere purchase and existence of insurance does not reduce or release any Party from any liability incurred or assumed under this Agreement.

(d) Each Delek Entity shall comply with all notice and reporting requirements in the foregoing policies and timely pay all premiums.

(e) Each Delek Entity shall be responsible for any deductibles or retentions that are applicable to the insurance required pursuant to Section 17.1.

17.3 Each Delek Entity shall have the right to satisfy its insurance obligations outlined in Sections 17.1 and 17.2 by means of a captive insurance program; provided that (i) such captive insurance program is permitted under and in compliance with applicable law, (ii) such insurance policy or policies issued by the captive insurer contains a “cut-though” endorsement providing that in the event of the captive insurer’s insolvency any reinsurer of the captive insurer will pay any loss covered by a reinsurance contract directly to one or more Delek Entities, and (iii) such captive insurance program is able to pay claims in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

17.4 If at any time during the existence of a Specified Event of Default, Inventory Business Interruption Cash Proceeds are received by Citi in respect of a Material Casualty Event, then:

(a) the Parties will exclude, subject to the following sentence, Included Locations and reduce Crude Oil and Products volume that are subject to the terms of the Agreement, and DKTS shall purchase and receive from Citi, and Citi shall sell and deliver to DKTS, Crude Oil and Products in an amount up to the aggregate amount of such Inventory Business Interruption Cash Proceeds. In furtherance of the foregoing, Citi shall determine, acting reasonably and in good faith, the Included Locations to exclude for purposes of reducing the Crude Oil and Products volume that are subject to this Agreement,

 

69


it being that such Included Locations will only include those Included Locations that have been affected by direct physical loss or damaged by a Material Casualty Event giving rise to Business Interruption Cash Proceeds. Upon the exclusion of such previously Included Locations and the commensurate reduction of Crude Oil and Products volume, Citi will return Inventory Business Interruption Cash Proceeds to DKTS in an amount commensurate to the Included Locations so excluded and the corresponding reduction in Crude Oil and Products volume. Such Inventory Business Interruption Cash Proceeds will be returned promptly but not later than five (5) Business Days after the date of such determination;

(b) pending the exclusions described in the first two sentences of sub-section (a) above, Citi will Transfer such Inventory Business Interruption Cash Proceeds as Posted Collateral pursuant to Article 12 of this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 17.4 shall constitute forbearance or waiver of Citi’s rights and remedies in respect of the Specified Event of Default, including with respect to its ability to designate an Early Termination Date hereunder, and is not intended to and shall not be deemed or construed to create or constitute a waiver, release, or relinquishment of, and shall not affect, the Liens, security interests and rights, remedies and interests in the business interruption insurance generally; and

(c) notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Specified Event of Default is cured or otherwise ceases to exist, Citi shall have no further right in respect of such Inventory Business Interruption Cash Proceeds under this Section 17.4 and shall promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) return such Inventory Business Interruption Cash Proceeds to DKTS or its designee.

17.5 If Citi receives Inventory Business Interruption Cash Proceeds or any other insurance proceeds in respect of assets or operations of any Delek Entity in respect of any event other than a Material Casualty Event, then Citi will return such Business Interruption Cash Proceeds to DKTS promptly but not later than five (5) Business Days after the date of such receipt; provided that a Specified Event of Default has not occurred and is then continuing at the time of such receipt.

ARTICLE 18

FORCE MAJEURE

18.1 If a Party is rendered unable by an event of Force Majeure to perform in whole or in part any obligation or condition of this Agreement (the “Affected Party”), it shall not be liable to any other Party to perform such obligation or condition (except for payment and indemnification obligations) for so long as the event of Force Majeure exists and to the extent that performance is prevented or materially hindered by such event of Force Majeure; provided, however, that the Affected Party shall use any commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate, avoid or remove the event of Force Majeure. During the period that performance by the Affected Party of a part or whole of its obligations has been suspended by reason of an event of Force Majeure, the other Parties (each a “Non-Affected Party”) likewise may suspend the performance of all or a part of its obligations to the extent that such suspension is commercially reasonable, except for any payment and indemnification obligations. The Parties acknowledge that if, as a result of a Force Majeure, a Delek Entity is to suspend its receipt and/or processing of Crude Oil, then Citi would be entitled to suspend, to a comparable extent, its purchasing of both Crude Oil and Products.

 

70


18.2 The Affected Party shall give prompt notice to each Non-Affected Party of its declaration of an event of Force Majeure, to be followed by written notice within twenty-four (24) hours after receiving notice of the occurrence of a Force Majeure event, including, to the extent feasible, the details and the expected duration of the Force Majeure event and the volume of Crude Oil or Products affected. The Affected Party also shall promptly notify each Non-Affected Party when the event of Force Majeure is terminated. However, the failure or inability of the Affected Party to provide such notice within the time periods specified above shall not preclude it from declaring an event of Force Majeure.

18.3 In the event the Affected Party’s performance is suspended due to an event of Force Majeure in excess of ninety (90) consecutive days after the date that notice of such event is given, and so long as such event is continuing, each Non-Affected Party, in its sole discretion, may terminate or curtail its obligations under this Agreement affected by such event of Force Majeure (the “Affected Obligations”) by giving notice of such termination or curtailment to each Affected Party, and no Party shall have any further liability to the other in respect of such Affected Obligations to the extent terminated or curtailed, except for the rights and remedies previously accrued under this Agreement, any payment and indemnification obligations by any Party under this Agreement and the obligations set forth in Article 21.

18.4 If any Affected Obligation is not terminated pursuant to this Article 18 or any other provision of this Agreement, performance shall resume to the extent made possible by the end or amelioration of the event of Force Majeure in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that the term of this Agreement shall not be extended.

18.5 If at any time during the Term any of the Required Storage and Transportation Arrangements cease to be in effect (in whole or in part) or any of the Included Crude Pipelines or Included Product Pipelines cease, in whole or in part, to be available to Citi or any Delek Entity (as applicable) pursuant to the relevant Required Storage and Transportation Arrangements, and the foregoing is a result of or attributable to any owner or operator of the Included Crude Pipelines, or Included Product Pipelines or any other Included Location becoming Bankrupt or breaching or defaulting in any of its obligations relating to the Required Storage and Transportation Arrangements or its contractual obligations to any Delek Entity, then:

(a) the affected Delek Entity shall (and each other Delek Entity shall cause such affected Delek entity to) promptly use commercially reasonable efforts to establish in the case of a Required Storage and Transportation Arrangement, alternative and/or replacement storage and transportation arrangements subject to a Required Storage and Transportation Arrangement for Citi’s benefit and no less favorable to Citi (in Citi’s reasonable judgment) than those that have ceased to be available;

 

71


(b) Until such alternative and/or replacement arrangements complying with sub-section (a) above have been established, each Party shall be deemed to have been affected by an event of Force Majeure and its obligations under this Agreement (except for payment and indemnification obligations) shall be curtailed to the extent such performance is prevented or materially hindered by such lack of effectiveness of any Required Storage and Transportation Arrangements or the availability of any pipeline or storage facility related thereto; and

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in no event shall Citi have any obligation under or in connection with this Agreement to store Crude Oil or Product in any pipeline or store Crude Oil or Product in any storage facility at any time from and after the owner or operator thereof becomes Bankrupt. If any such storage facility is an Included Location then Citi may, in its discretion, elect upon written notice to the Delek Entities that such storage facility shall cease to be an Included Location as of a date specified in such written notice in which case any Crude Oil or Product held by Citi therein shall be purchased by one or more Delek Entities in accordance with the applicable provisions of Sections 11.1 and 11.2 hereof.

(i) It shall not, from and after the Effective Date, allow to become effective any Financing Agreement (an “Additional Financing Agreement”) the terms and conditions of which would adversely affect in any respect any of Citi’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.

(j) (i) To the extent deemed necessary or appropriate by Citi, it shall cause acknowledgments and/or releases (including without limitation, amendments or termination of UCC financing statements), in form and substance satisfactory to Citi, to be duly executed by lenders or other creditors that are party to the Existing Financing Agreements to which it is a party, confirming the release of any lien in favor of such lender or other creditor that might apply to or be deemed to apply to any Inventory Collateral and agreeing to provide Citi with such further documentation as it may reasonably request in order to confirm the foregoing; and (ii) from and after the date hereof it will promptly cause the Acknowledgment Agreement to be further amended or amended and restated, to the extent deemed necessary or appropriate by Citi, to acknowledge any locations hereafter added as Included Locations hereunder (together with Crude Oil and Products held therein by Citi).

(k) The Included Locations owned and/or operated by it have been maintained, repaired, inspected and serviced such that they are in good working order and repair and it will take commercially reasonable actions (or cause others to take commercially reasonable actions) to maintain, repair, inspect and service such Included Locations in accordance with industry standards.

(l) In the event that it becomes Bankrupt, and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, it intends that (i) Citi’s right to liquidate, collect, net and set off rights and obligations under this Agreement and liquidate and terminate this Agreement shall not be stayed, avoided, or otherwise limited by the Bankruptcy Code, including Sections 362(a), 547, 548 or 553 thereof; (ii) Citi shall be entitled to the rights, remedies and protections afforded by and under, among other sections, Sections 362(b)(6), 362(b)(17), 362(b)(27), 546(e), 546(g), 546(j), 548(d), 553, 556, 560, 561 and 562 of the Bankruptcy Code; and (iii) any cash, securities or other property provided as performance assurance, credit, support or collateral with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby shall constitute “margin payments” as defined in Section 101(38) of the Bankruptcy Code and all payments for, under or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, shall constitute “settlement payments” as defined in Section 101(51A) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(m) It shall have no interest in or the right to dispose of, and shall not permit the creation of, or suffer to exist, any security interest, lien, encumbrance, charge or other claim of any nature, other than Permitted Liens, with respect to any Inventory Collateral. It authorizes Citi to file at any time and from time to time any UCC financing statements describing the Inventory Collateral and Citi’s interests therein, and it hereby authorizes Citi to file (with or without Delek’s signature), at any time and from time to time, all amendments to financing statements, assignments, continuation financing statements, termination statements, and other documents and instruments, in form reasonably satisfactory to Citi, as Citi may reasonably request, to provide public notice of, and to otherwise protect, Citi’s interests in the Inventory Collateral.

 

75


(n) As provided in the Pledge and Security Agreement, DKTS has granted to Citi, as additional security for the prompt and complete payment and performance of all obligations of the Delek Entities arising hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents and under all transactions contemplated thereby (collectively, the “Obligations”), (x) a precautionary security interest in all right, title or interest in or to any Hydrocarbons (other than Hydrocarbons which are Excluded Materials) and whether now existing or owned or hereafter acquired or arising and all documents of title directly related thereto and certain general intangibles and proceeds arising therefrom (collectively, the “Intermediation Collateral”) and (y) a present and continuing security interest in business interruption insurance proceeds associated with Hydrocarbons (other than Hydrocarbons which are Excluded Materials) (the “BI Collateral”). DKTS hereby authorizes Citi to file at any time and from time to time any financing statements describing the Inventory Collateral, and it hereby authorizes Citi to file (with or without signature from any applicable Delek Entity), at any time and from time to time, all amendments to financing statements, continuation financing statements, termination statements, notices and all other documents and instruments, in form reasonably satisfactory to Citi, as Citi may reasonably request, to maintain the priority and perfection or provide notice of Citi’s security interest in the Inventory Collateral. Without limiting its representations, warranties, covenants and other obligations under the Pledge and Security Agreement, each Delek Entity represents and warrants that, (i) the Pledge and Security Agreement creates an enforceable security interest in the Inventory Collateral in favor of Citi and, upon filing the initial financing statements contemplated above, Citi shall have a perfected, first priority lien on and security interest in the Inventory Collateral and (ii) so long as this Agreement or any Transaction Documents remain in effect or any Obligations (other than indemnities and contingent Obligations) remain unsatisfied, DKTS will not create any Liens on the Inventory Collateral (in each under sub-sections (i) and (ii)), other than the lien granted to Citi hereunder and any Permitted Liens).

(o) With respect to all Required Storage and Transportation Arrangements in which the party providing the storage or transportation services is an Affiliate of a Delek Entity, it shall cause such Affiliate to perform its obligations under such Required Storage and Transportation Arrangement.

(p) Citi is the sole and exclusive supplier of Crude Oil consumed by the Refineries and the sole and exclusive purchaser of Products produced by the Refineries.

76


(ii) to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, cause DK MLP and its subsidiaries that are parties to such Required MLP Arrangements to make the full capacity of the pipelines and Included Locations available pursuant thereto to Citi for purposes of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents.

19.3 Citi’s Representations and Covenants. Citi represents and warrants to and agrees that it shall not cause or permit any of the Crude Oil or Products to which Citi has title under this Agreement to become subject to any liens or encumbrances, other than Permitted Liens.

19.4 Acknowledgment. (i) Citi is a merchant of Crude Oil and Products and may, from time to time, be dealing with prospective counterparties, or pursuing trading or hedging strategies, in connection with aspects of Citi’s business which are unrelated hereto and that such dealings and such trading or hedging strategies may be different from or opposite to those being pursued by or for it, (ii) Citi has no fiduciary or trust obligations of any nature with respect to any Refinery, any Delek Entity or any of their Affiliates, (iii) Citi may enter into transactions and purchase Crude Oil or Products for its own account or the account of others at values more favorable than those being paid by any Delek Entity hereunder and (5) nothing herein shall be construed to prevent Citi, or any of its partners, officers, employees or Affiliates, in any way from purchasing, selling or otherwise trading in Crude Oil, Products or any other commodity for its or their own account or for the account of others, whether prior to, simultaneously with or subsequent to any transaction under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein DKTS shall be deemed to be the Defaulting Party upon the occurrence of any of the events described in sub-sections (a) to (m) (inclusive) above with respect to any Delek Entity or any subsidiary of a Delek Entity.

20.2 Remedies Upon Event of Default.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) if any Event of Default that is not an Event of Default under Section 20.1(d) (a “Bankruptcy Event of Default”) with respect to a Delek Entity, on the one hand, or Citi, on the other hand (such defaulting Party, the “Defaulting Party”) has occurred and is continuing, Citi (where a Delek Entity is the Defaulting Party) or DKTS (where Citi is the Defaulting Party) (such non-defaulting Party, the “Non-Defaulting Party”) may, without notice, declare all of the Defaulting Party’s obligations under this Agreement to be forthwith due and payable, all without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by the Defaulting Party, or (ii) if a Bankruptcy Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Defaulting Party’s obligations shall automatically and without any such declaration become forthwith due and payable), and/or (iii) subject to Section 21.1(a), if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Non-Defaulting Party may exercise any rights and remedies provided or available to the Non-Defaulting Party under this Agreement or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the UCC and as provided under this Section 20.2. It is expressly agreed that all such obligations shall be due and payable as a result of any acceleration pursuant to this Section 20.2, including (without limitation) in the case of any automatic acceleration resulting from a Bankruptcy Event of Default, and all such obligations shall survive and continue to be due and payable following the occurrence of any Event of Default.

 

79


(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) if an Event of Default that is not a Bankruptcy Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Non-Defaulting Party shall have the right, immediately and at any time(s) thereafter, to terminate this Agreement (and any other contract or agreement that may then be outstanding among the Parties that relates specifically to this Agreement, including any Transaction Document), or (ii) if a Bankruptcy Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, this Agreement shall automatically and without any notice be terminated (in either sub-sections (i) or (ii), the date of such termination, the “Early Termination Date”), and (iii) subject to Section 21.1(a), if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Non-Defaulting Party may liquidate and terminate any or all rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that where Citi is the Non-Defaulting Party, Citi may, at its option and without prejudice to any of Citi’s other rights and remedies available under this Agreement or at law or in equity, elect to sell and deliver the volume of Crude Oil and Products at the Included Locations as contemplated in the Step-Out Inventory Sales Agreement, in accordance with Section 21.1(a), on the date falling two (2) Business Days after the date on which it shall have provided DKTS written notice that it is making such election.

(c) If, (i) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Non-Defaulting Party elects to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 20.2(b), or (ii) upon the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event of Default this Agreement is automatically terminated, the Non-Defaulting Party shall determine the Settlement Amount (as defined below) acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner and shall be payable by DKTS to Citi or by Citi to DKTS. The Non-Defaulting Party shall determine the Settlement Amount commencing as of the Early Termination Date by reference to such futures, forward, swap and options markets as it shall select in its commercially reasonable judgment; provided that the Non-Defaulting Party is not required to effect such liquidations and terminations and/or determine the Settlement Amount on a single day, but rather may effect such liquidations and terminations and determine the Settlement Amount over a commercially reasonable period of time. In calculating the Settlement Amount, the Non-Defaulting Party shall discount to present value (in any commercially reasonable manner based on SOFR for the applicable period) any amount which would be due at a later date and shall add interest (at a rate determined in the same manner) to any amount due prior to the date of the calculation.

For the purposes of this Agreement, the “Settlement Amount” means an amount, expressed in USD, of losses and costs that are or would be incurred by the Non-Defaulting Party (expressed as a positive number) or gains that are or would be realized by the Non-Defaulting Party (expressed as a negative number) as a result of the liquidation and termination of all rights and obligations under this Agreement and/or the termination, sale and delivery of the volume of Crude Oil and Products at the Included Locations as contemplated in the Step-Out Inventory Sales Agreement in accordance with Section 21.1(a), as applicable. The determination of the Settlement Amount shall include (without duplication): (i) all reasonable losses and costs (or gains) incurred or realized by the Non-Defaulting Party, as a result of the Non-Defaulting Party’s terminating, liquidating, maintaining, obtaining or reestablishing any hedge or related trading positions in connection with such termination, (ii) all blending, tankage, linefill and throughput charges

 

80


incurred by the Non-Defaulting Party, (iii) the losses and costs (or gains) incurred or realized by the Non-Defaulting Party to the extent it elects to dispose of any Crude Oil or Product inventories maintained for purposes of this Agreement (including, where Citi is the Non-Defaulting Party, by sale and delivery of the volume of Crude Oil and Products at the Included Locations as contemplated in the Step-Out Inventory Sales Agreement in accordance with Section 21.1(a)) and (iv) if Citi is the Non-Defaulting Party, an amount equal to the Remaining Fees. If the Settlement Amount is a positive number, it shall be due to the Non-Defaulting Party and if it is a negative number, the absolute value thereof shall be due to the Defaulting Party.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt and without limiting any other rights or remedies hereunder, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Citi is the Non-Defaulting Party, Citi may, in its discretion:

(i) withhold or suspend its obligations, including any of its delivery or payment obligations, under this Agreement;

(ii) withdraw from storage any and all of the Crude Oil and/or Products then in the Included Locations;

(iii) sell and deliver the volume of Crude Oil and Products at the Included Locations as contemplated in the Step-Out Inventory Sales Agreement, in accordance with Section 21.1(a);

(iv) otherwise arrange for the disposition of any Crude Oil and/or Products in such manner as it elects;

(v) liquidate, in a commercially reasonable manner, any credit support, margin or collateral, to the extent not already in the form of cash (including making a demand under the Delek Guarantee or any credit support, margin or collateral arrangements);

(vi) apply and set off any proceeds of any disposition of Crude Oil and/or Products, any payment under the Delek Guarantee or any credit support, margin or collateral (or the proceeds thereof) against any obligation owing by any Delek Entity to Citi; and

(vii) hedge any or all of the then-unhedged Crude Oil or Products (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include Crude Oil or Products Liquids that are unhedged as a result of termination of any Fixed Price Forward Hedge Transaction) at DKTS’s cost and expense; provided that such costs and expenses shall be payable by DKTS so long as (i) Citi uses it reasonable commercial efforts to reduce and eliminate any such unhedged exposure as soon as commercially feasible through sales of physical products or other through other risk-reducing actions, (ii) such hedges are non-speculative, and (iii) such hedges are of a duration that is reasonably necessary to eliminate such unhedged exposure.

 

81


Citi shall be under no obligation to prioritize the order with respect to which it exercises any one or more rights and remedies available hereunder. The Delek Entities shall in all events remain jointly and severally liable to Citi for any amount payable by them in respect of any of its obligations remaining unpaid after any such liquidation, application and set off.

(e) Without limiting any other rights or remedies hereunder, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Citi is the Defaulting Party, DKTS may, in its discretion, (i) withhold or suspend its obligations, including any of its delivery or payment obligations, under this Agreement, (ii) cause Citi to sell and deliver to DKTS the volume of Crude Oil and Products at the Included Locations as contemplated in the Step-Out Inventory Sales Agreement in accordance with Section 21.1(a), (iii) cause Citi to enter into the documentation described in Section 21.1(b), (iv) otherwise arrange for the settlement or termination of the Parties’ outstanding commitments hereunder and/or the sale in a commercially reasonable manner of Crude Oil and/or Product for Citi’s account, (v) terminate all or any other Transaction Document, including the Storage Facilities Agreement, (vi) arrange for replacement or alternative inventory intermediation arrangements with such replacement or alternative providers as it may procure, and including, without limitation, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to such replacement, the purchase of Crude Oil or Products by it on its own account and the storage of Product and Crude Oil owned by it in the Included Locations.

(f) The Non-Defaulting Party shall set off (i) the Settlement Amount (if due to the Defaulting Party), plus any performance security (including the Delek Guarantee or the Citi Guarantee (as applicable) or any credit support, margin or collateral arrangements) then held by the Non-Defaulting Party pursuant to the Transaction Documents, plus (at the Non-Defaulting Party’s election) any or all other amounts due to the Defaulting Party hereunder (including under Article 11) or under any other Transaction Document, against (ii) the Settlement Amount (if due to the Non-Defaulting Party), plus any performance security (including the Delek Guarantee or the Citi Guarantee (as applicable) or any credit support, margin or collateral arrangements) then held by the Defaulting Party, plus (at the Non-Defaulting Party’s election) any or all other amounts due to the Non-Defaulting Party hereunder (including under Article 11) or under any other Transaction Document, so that all such amounts shall be netted to a single liquidated amount payable by one Party to the other (the “Liquidated Amount”). The Party with the payment obligation shall pay the Liquidated Amount to the applicable other Parties within one (1) Business Day after such amount has been determined.

(g) No delay or failure on the part of the Non-Defaulting Party in exercising any right or remedy to which it may be entitled on account of any Event of Default shall constitute an abandonment of any such right, and the Non-Defaulting Party shall be entitled to exercise such right or remedy at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default.

(h) The Non-Defaulting Party’s rights under this Section 20.2 shall be in addition to, and not in limitation or exclusion of, any other rights which the Non-Defaulting Party may have (whether by agreement, operation of law or otherwise), including any rights of recoupment, setoff, combination of accounts or other rights under any credit support that may from time to time be provided in connection with this Agreement. The Defaulting Party shall indemnify and hold the Non-Defaulting Party harmless from all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney fees, incurred in the exercise of any remedies hereunder.

 

82


(i) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Non-Defaulting Party and any Affiliate thereof may, without limitation on its rights under this Section 20.2, set off amounts which the Defaulting Party owes to it or any such Affiliate against any amounts which it or such Affiliate owes to the Defaulting Party (whether hereunder, under any other contract or agreement or otherwise and whether or not then due).

(j) The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement is intended to be a “master netting agreement” as such term is defined in Section 101(38A) of the Bankruptcy Code. As used in this Section 20.2 unless otherwise expressly provided, each reference to “this Agreement” shall, and shall be deemed to, be a reference to “this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.”

(k) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event the obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to their maturity date, in each case, in respect of any Event of Default with respect to a Delek Entity (including, but not limited to, upon the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event of Default) (including the acceleration of claims by operation of law)), any amounts that would have become due hereunder or thereunder on the date of such acceleration or otherwise with respect to any early termination hereof (whether or not as a result of an Event of Default) shall also be due and payable as though such early termination had occurred and shall be part of the Obligations. Any such amount payable shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by Citi as the result of the early termination and each of Delek Entity agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. EACH DELEK ENTITY EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING AMOUNTS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. Each Delek Entity expressly agrees (to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so) that: (A) all such amounts are reasonable and the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) such amounts shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between the Parties hereto giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay such amounts; and (D) it shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. Each Delek Entity expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay such amounts to Citi as herein described is a material inducement to Citi to enter into this Agreement.

 

83


20.3 U.S. Resolution Stay Provisions.

(a) Recognition of U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.

(i) In the event that Citi becomes subject to a proceeding under (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder or Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder (a “U.S. Special Resolution Regime”) the transfer from Citi of this Agreement and any obligation in or under, and any property securing, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement and, if in effect, the Step-Out Inventory Sales Agreement (collectively, the “Safe Harbor Agreements”), and any interest and obligation in or under, and any property securing, the Safe Harbor Agreements were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(ii) In the event that Citi or an Affiliate becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, any Default Rights (as defined in 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable (“Default Rights”)) under any Safe Harbor Agreement that may be exercised against Citi are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if a Safe Harbor Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(b) Limitation on Exercise of Certain Default Rights Related to an Affiliate’s Entry into Insolvency Proceedings. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Parties expressly acknowledge and agree that:

(i) In the event that Citi or an Affiliate becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, no Delek Entity shall be permitted to exercise any Default Right with respect to a Safe Harbor Agreement or any Credit Enhancement, in each case, that is related, directly or indirectly, to an Affiliate of Citi becoming subject to any insolvency or liquidation proceeding, except to the extent that the exercise of such Default Right would be permitted under the provisions of 12 C.F.R. 252.84, 12 C.F.R. 47.5 or 12 C.F.R. 382.4, as applicable; and

(ii) In the event that Citi or an Affiliate becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, nothing in any Safe Harbor Agreement shall prohibit the transfer of any Credit Enhancement, any interest or obligation in or under such Credit Enhancement, or any property securing such Credit Enhancement, to a transferee upon or following an Affiliate of Citi becoming subject to an insolvency or liquidation proceeding, unless the transfer would result in any Delek Entity being the beneficiary of such Credit Enhancement in violation of any law applicable to such Delek Entity.

 

84


(c) U.S. Protocol. If any Delek Entity adheres to the ISDA 2018 U.S. Resolution Stay Protocol, as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. as of July 31, 2018 (the “ISDA U.S. Protocol”), the terms of the ISDA U.S. Protocol will supersede and replace the terms of this Section 20.3.

(d) For purposes of this Section 20.3, the term “Affiliate” means “Affiliate” as defined in, and interpreted in accordance with 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k).

ARTICLE 21

SETTLEMENT AT TERMINATION

21.1 Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement (i) as a result of an Event of Default, the Non-Defaulting Party shall, within two (2) Business Days of the Early Termination Date, provide written notice to the Defaulting Party as to whether it will or will not elect to sell and deliver, or purchase, as the case may be, the volume of Crude Oil and Products at the Included Locations pursuant to the Step-Out Inventory Sales Agreement, and if the Non-Defaulting Party elects to so sell and deliver or purchase, as applicable, the Parties covenant and agree to proceed as provided in Section 21.1(a)(ii) and (b), or (ii) for any reason other than as a result of an Event of Default (in which case the Expiration Date or any other date that may be agreed by the Parties shall be the “Termination Date”), the Parties covenant and agree to proceed as provided in this Article 21 (other than Section 21.1(a)(ii)); provided that (x) this Agreement shall continue in effect following any Termination Date until all obligations are finally settled as contemplated by this Article 21 and (y) the provisions of this Article 21 shall in no way limit the rights and remedies which the Non-Defaulting Party may have as a result of an Event of Default, whether pursuant to Article 20 or otherwise:

(a) The volume of Crude Oil and Products at the Included Locations shall be purchased and transferred as contemplated in the Step-Out Inventory Sales Agreement.

(i) Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason other than as a result of an Event of Default, the Crude Oil volumes measured by the Independent Inspection Company at the Termination Date and recorded in the Independent Inspection Company’s final inventory report shall be the “Termination Date Crude Oil Volumes” for the purposes of this Agreement and the Product volumes measured by the Independent Inspection Company at the Termination Date and recorded in the Independent Inspection Company’s final inventory report shall be the “Termination Date Product Volumes” for purposes of this Agreement, and such Termination Date Crude Oil Volumes and Termination Date Product Volumes shall collectively be referred to as the “Termination Date Volumes”.

(ii) Upon termination of this Agreement as a result of any Event of Default where the Non-Defaulting Party has elected to sell and deliver or purchase, as applicable, the Parties shall attempt to have the Crude Oil Volumes and the Product Volumes measured in accordance with Section 21.1(a)(i) (except that all references to the (i) Termination Date shall be to the Early Termination Date, (ii) to the Termination Date Crude Oil Volumes shall be to the Early Termination Date Crude

 

85


Oil Volumes, (iii) to the Termination Date Product Volumes shall be to the Early Termination Date Product Volumes; and (iv) to the Termination Date Volumes shall be to the Early Termination Date Volumes) and if the Parties are unable to have the measurement performed as provided in Section 21.1(a)(i) within one (1) Business Day of such termination, then for the purposes of determining the volume of Crude Oil and Products at the Included Locations pursuant to the Step-Out Inventory Sales Agreement, the Crude Oil volumes specified in the most recent Inventory Report shall be the “Early Termination Date Crude Oil Volume” and the Product volumes specified in the most recent Inventory Report shall be the “Early Termination Date Product Volumes” for the purposes of this Agreement, and such Early Termination Date Crude Oil Volume and the Early Termination Date Product Volumes shall collectively be referred to as the “Early Termination Date Volumes”. The Parties agree that the Early Termination Date Purchase Value shall be determined by the Non-Defaulting Party through application of the applicable Step-Out Pricing calculation set forth on Schedule V to the Early Termination Date Volumes.

(b) In the event that Citi has become a party to any other third party service contract in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including any pipeline, terminalling, storage and shipping arrangement including but not limited to the Required Storage and Transportation Arrangements (an “Ancillary Contract”) and such Ancillary Contract does not by its terms expire or terminate on and as of the Termination Date, then the Parties shall promptly negotiate and enter into with each service provider thereunder such instruments or other documentation, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Parties, pursuant to which as of the Termination Date (i) such Ancillary Contract shall be assigned to one or more Delek Entities or shall be terminated, (ii) all rights and obligations of Citi with respect to each then outstanding Ancillary Contract shall be assigned to one or more Delek Entities, (iii) such Delek Entities shall assume all of such obligations to be paid or performed following such termination, and (iv) Citi shall be released by the third party service providers thereunder and by each Delek Entity from any further obligations with respect to such Ancillary Contract. For each case in which a Delek Entity has transferred to Citi for purposes of this Agreement the historical pipeline capacity of such Delek Entity on any Included Location or where Citi has been a shipper of record on a pipeline for volumes of Crude Oil or Products shipped by Citi for purposes of this Agreement and as a result of has generated a capacity history based on such shipments, Citi shall, in connection with the occurrence of a Termination Date, endeavor in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner to cause such historical pipeline capacity, including any adjustments to such history based on and attributable to quantities of Crude Oil and/or Products transported by Citi for purposes of this Agreement (“Related Pipeline Capacity”), to be transferred to one or more Delek Entities, as directed, in each case subject to any applicable rules, regulations and tariffs; provided that such transferee Delek Entities shall jointly and severally reimburse Citi for any out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Citi in connection with its endeavoring to effect such transfer. Without limiting the foregoing, Citi agrees, upon request of a Delek Entity at any time prior to and after a Termination Date, to cooperate in good faith with the Delek Entities to endeavor to cause each Pipeline System at any Included Location to agree and acknowledge that the Related Pipeline Capacity shall be for the benefit of such Delek

 

86


Entity, as applicable; provided that such Delek Entity shall reimburse Citi for any out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Citi in connection with its endeavoring to effect such agreement and acknowledgment. Any historical capacity held by Citi that does not constitute Related Pipeline Capacity shall be retained by Citi. In addition, if despite Citi’s commercially reasonable efforts, a Pipeline System will not effect or permit such transfer or the portion of Citi’s historical pipeline capacity constituting Related Pipeline Capacity cannot be identified or allocated, no transfer shall be required with respect to such Pipeline System.

(c) Citi shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following the Termination Date, reconcile and calculate the Termination Amount pursuant to Section 21.2 and the amount shall be determined pursuant to Section 21.2. The Parties shall promptly exchange all information necessary to determine the estimates and final calculations contemplated by Section 21.2.

(d) Neither Citi nor DKTS shall have any further obligation to purchase or sell or pay for Crude Oil or Products or incur any such purchase obligations on and after the Termination Date. Except as may be required for Citi to fulfill its obligations hereunder until the Termination Date, Citi shall not be obligated to purchase, take title to or pay for, and DKTS shall not be obligated to purchase or sell, any Crude Oil or Products following the Termination Date or such earlier date as the Parties may determine in connection with the transitioning of such supply arrangements to the applicable Delek Entities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Delivery Date shall occur later than the Business Day immediately preceding the Termination Date.

(e) Promptly after all obligations due to Citi under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents have been satisfied in full, (i) Citi shall release to DKTS and confirm the termination of the Delek Guarantee and surrender and confirm the cancellation of any Letters of Credit then held by Citi and (ii) DKTS shall release to Citi and confirm the termination of the Citi Guarantee.

For the avoidance of doubt, sub-sections (c), (d) and (e) of this Section 21.1 shall not apply in respect of any termination of this Agreement as a result of an Event of Default.

21.2 Termination Amount.

(a) The “Termination Amount” (which shall be payable in connection with the termination of this Agreement for any reason other than an Event of Default) shall equal:

(i) the Termination Date Purchase Value, which is the aggregate amount payable to Citi under the Step-Out Inventory Sales Agreement, plus

(ii) all unpaid amounts payable by DKTS to Citi as the Termination Date, plus

(iii) all Ancillary Costs incurred through the Termination Date that have not yet been paid or reimbursed by DKTS, plus

 

87


(iv) in the case of an early termination, the amount reasonably determined by Citi as the losses, costs and damages (in each case that are commercially reasonable and for which Citi is able to provide to the Delek Entities reasonable supporting evidence) it incurred or realized as a result of Citi’s terminating, liquidating, maintaining, obtaining or reestablishing any hedge or related trading positions in connection with such early termination, plus

(v) in the case of an early termination, any blending, tankage, linefill and throughput charges incurred by Citi as a result of the termination of any Ancillary Contract, plus

(vi) the aggregate Monthly True-Up Amount due under Section 11.2(a), calculated as of the Termination Date with such date being the final day of the last monthly period for which such calculations are to be made under this Agreement; provided that, if such amount is due to Citi, then such amount will be included in this Termination Amount as a positive number and if such amount is due to DKTS, then such amount will be included in this Termination Amount as a negative number, plus

(vii) any unpaid portion of the Fees (as defined in the Fee Letter) due and owing to Citi as of the Termination Date pursuant to the Fee Letter, plus

(viii) any Target Deviation Final Settlement that is determined to be due pursuant to Schedule I; provided that, if such Target Deviation Final Settlement is due to Citi, then such amount will be included in this Termination Amount as a positive number and if such amount under Section 11.2(a) would be due from Citi, then such amount will be included in this Termination Amount as a negative number, minus

(ix) all unpaid amounts payable hereunder by Citi to DKTS in respect of Crude Oil and Products delivered on or prior to the Termination Date.

Without duplication of the foregoing, the Termination Amount shall include all amounts due among the Parties. All of the foregoing amounts shall be aggregated or netted to a single liquidated amount owing from one Party to the other. If the Termination Amount is a positive number, it shall be due to Citi and if it is a negative number, the absolute value thereof shall be due to DKTS.

(b) The Parties acknowledge that one or more of the components of the Termination Amount will not be able to be definitively determined by the Termination Date and therefore agree that Citi shall, in a commercially reasonable manner, estimate each of such components and use such estimated components to determine an estimate of the Termination Amount (the “Estimated Termination Amount”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties agree that the amount due under Section 21.2(a)(i) shall be estimated by Citi as contemplated in the Step-Out Inventory Sales Agreement by applying the applicable Step-Out Pricing calculation set forth on Schedule V to the Termination Date Volumes. Citi shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare, and provide the Delek Entities with, an initial Estimated Termination Amount, together

 

88


with appropriate supporting documentation, at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Termination Date. To the extent reasonably practicable, Citi shall endeavor to update its calculation of the Estimated Termination Amount by no later than 12:00 p.m., CPT on the Business Day prior to the Termination Date. If Citi is able to provide such updated amount, that amount shall constitute the Estimated Termination Amount and shall be due and payable by no later than 5:00 p.m., CPT on the Business Day preceding the Termination Date. Otherwise, the initial Estimated Termination Amount shall be the amount payable on the Termination Date. If the Estimated Termination Amount is a positive number, it shall be due to Citi and if it is a negative number, the absolute value thereof shall be due to one or more Delek Entities as notified to Citi.

(c) Citi shall prepare, and provide the Delek Entities with, (i) a statement showing the calculation, as of the Termination Date, of the Termination Amount, (ii) a statement (the “Termination Reconciliation Statement”) reconciling the Termination Amount with the sum of the Estimated Termination Amount pursuant to Section 21.2(b) and indicating any amount remaining to be paid by one Party to the other as a result of such reconciliation. Within one (1) Business Day after receiving the Termination Reconciliation Statement and the related supporting documentation, the Parties will make any and all payments required pursuant thereto. Promptly after receiving such payment, Citi shall cause any filing or recording of any UCC financing forms to be terminated.

21.3 Transition Services. To the extent necessary to facilitate the transition to the purchasers of the storage and transportation rights and status contemplated hereby, each Party shall take such additional actions, execute such further instruments and provide such additional assistance as the other Party may from time to time reasonably request for such purposes.

89


22.2 To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law and except as specified otherwise elsewhere in this Agreement, DKTS shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Citi, its Affiliates, and their directors, officers, employees, representatives, agents and contractors for and against any Liabilities directly or indirectly arising out of (i) any breach by any Delek Entity of any covenant or agreement contained herein or made in connection herewith or any representation or warranty of any Delek Entity made herein or in connection herewith proving to be false or misleading, including, without limitation any obligation of a Delek Entity for payment of Taxes pursuant to Section 16.1, (ii) any Delek Entity’s transportation, handling, storage, refining or disposal of any Crude Oil or the products thereof, including any conduct by any Delek Entity on behalf of or as the agent of Citi under the Required Storage and Transportation Arrangements, (iii) any Delek Entity’s failure to comply with its obligations under the terminalling, pipeline and lease agreements underlying the Required Storage and Transportation Arrangements, (iv) any Delek Entity’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, (v) any failure by any Delek Entity to comply with or observe any Applicable Law, (vi) injury, disease, or death of any person or damage to or loss of any property, fine or penalty, any of which is caused by any Delek Entity or its employees, representatives, agents or contractors in exercising any rights or performing any obligations hereunder or in connection herewith, (vii) actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Substances in connection with the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, or any liability under any Environmental Law related in any way to or asserted in connection with the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, (viii) any Delek Entity’s ownership, handling or use of any Inventory Collateral, or (ix) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by a Delek Entity, and regardless of whether Citi is a party thereto, except to the extent that, with respect to sub-section (vi) above, such injury, disease, death, or damage to or loss of property was caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Citi, its Affiliates or any of their respective employees, representatives, agents or contractors.

22.3 The Parties’ obligations to defend, indemnify, and hold each other harmless under the terms of the Transaction Documents shall not vest any rights in any third party (whether a Governmental Authority or private entity), nor shall they be considered an admission of liability or responsibility for any purposes other than those enumerated in the Transaction Documents.

22.4 Citi and DKTS agrees to notify each other as soon as practicable after receiving notice of any claim or suit brought against it within the indemnities of this Agreement, shall furnish to the other the complete details within its knowledge and shall render all reasonable assistance requested by the other in the defense; provided that, the failure to give such notice shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder, except to the extent that the indemnifying Party is materially adversely affected by such failure. Each Party shall have the right but not the duty to participate, at its own expense, with counsel of its own selection, in the defense and settlement thereof without relieving the other of any obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume responsibility for and control of any judicial or administrative proceeding if such proceeding involves an Event of Default by the indemnifying Party under this Agreement which shall have occurred and be continuing.

31.11

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to any setting of the then-current Applicable Benchmark Rate, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with sub-section (i) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Applicable Benchmark Rate for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in respect of such Applicable Benchmark Rate setting and subsequent Applicable Benchmark Rate settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any Party or any party to any other Transaction Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with sub-section (b) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Applicable Benchmark Rate for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in respect of any Applicable Benchmark Rate setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Parties

 

95


without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other Party or any party to any other Transaction Document so long as Citi has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from any Delek Entity.

(b) In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, Citi will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other Party or any party to any other Transaction Document.

(c) Citi will promptly notify the Delek Entities of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. Citi will notify the Delek Entities of (A) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of an Applicable Benchmark Rate pursuant to Section 31.11(d) and (B) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by Citi pursuant to this Section 31.11, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other Party or any party to any other Transaction Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 31.11.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Applicable Benchmark Rate is a term rate (including Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Applicable Benchmark Rate is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by Citi in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Applicable Benchmark Rate has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Applicable Benchmark Rate is not or will not be representative, then Citi may make such modifications to the Agreement for any Applicable Benchmark Rate settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to sub-section (a) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for an Applicable Benchmark Rate (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for an Applicable Benchmark Rate (including a Benchmark Replacement), then Citi may make such further modifications to this Agreement for all Applicable Benchmark Rate settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(e) During a Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the then-current Applicable Benchmark Rate or such tenor for such Applicable Benchmark Rate, as applicable, will not be used in any calculation or determination under this Agreement.
