SECTION 1.Representations and Warranties.
(a) Representations and Warranties by the Company. The Company represents and warrants to each Underwriter and agrees with each Underwriter, as follows:
2
(i) Registration Statement and Prospectuses. The Company was at the original Effective Date of the Registration Statement, and continues to be, eligible to use Form S-3 for the offering of the Shares, and the original Effective Date of the Registration Statement was not earlier than the date that is three years prior to the Closing Time (as defined below) and the Date of Delivery (as defined below). The Registration Statement has become effective under the 1933 Act. No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has been issued under the 1933 Act, no order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus has been issued and no proceedings for any of those purposes have been instituted or are pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened by the Commission. The Company has complied with each request (if any) from the Commission for additional information with respect to the Registration Statement.
As of the applicable Effective Date of the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, the Registration Statement and any such post-effective amendment thereto complied and will comply, in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations, and the most recent preliminary prospectus conformed, and the Prospectus will conform, at the time each was or will be filed with the Commission, in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations; provided, however, in each such case, the Company makes no representations or warranties as to information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement, the most recent preliminary prospectus and the Prospectus (or any supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information (as defined herein) furnished to the Company by the Underwriters expressly for use therein. Each preliminary prospectus delivered to the Underwriters for use in connection with this offering and the Prospectus was or will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.
The documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus and the Prospectus, when they became effective or at the time they were or hereafter are filed with the Commission, as the case may be, complied and will comply, as of the Closing Time and the Date of Delivery (if any), in all material respects with the requirements of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission under the 1934 Act (the “1934 Act Regulations”).

As of the Applicable Time, none of (A) the General Disclosure Package or (B) any individual Issuer Limited Use Free Writing Prospectus, when considered together with the General Disclosure Package included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Prospectus, as of its issue date, at the Closing Time and at the Date of Delivery (if any), will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, at the time the Registration Statement became effective or when such documents incorporated by reference were filed with the Commission, as the case may be, when read together with the other information in the Registration Statement, the General
3
Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, as the case may be, did not and will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.
The representations and warranties in this subsection shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package, any individual Issuer Limited Use Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through the Representative expressly for use therein. For purposes of this Agreement, the only information furnished by the Underwriters for inclusion in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or any Issuer Limited Use Free Writing Prospectus consists of the information on the cover page of the Prospectus regarding delivery of the Shares, the list of Underwriters and their respective participation in the sale of the Shares, the information in the first paragraph under the heading “Underwriting–Commissions and Discounts,” the information in the first and second paragraphs under the heading “Underwriting–Stabilization, Short Positions and Penalty Bids” and the information under the heading “Underwriting–Electronic Distribution” in each case contained in the Prospectus (collectively, the “Underwriter Information”).

(viii) The Company has no direct or indirect subsidiaries other than the Significant Subsidiaries that, individually or in the aggregate, would be deemed a “significant subsidiary” as such term is defined in Rule 405 of the 1933 Act Regulations.

SECTION 6. Indemnification.
(a) Indemnification of Underwriters by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, each affiliate (as such term is defined in Rule 501(b) under the 1933 Act) of such Underwriter who has, or who is alleged to have, participated in the distribution of Shares (each, an “Affiliate”), its selling agents and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act as follows:
(i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including the Rule 430 Information, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package, or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission in any preliminary prospectus, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section 6(e) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company and the Selling Shareholder; and
(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by Barclays), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above;
provided, however, that this Section 6(a) shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including the Rule 430 Information, any preliminary prospectus, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.
(b) Indemnification of Underwriters by the Selling Shareholder. The Selling Shareholder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its Affiliates and selling agents and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act to the extent and in the manner set forth in clauses (a)(i), (ii) and (iii) above; provided that the Selling
23
Shareholder shall be liable only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission has been made in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the General Disclosure Package, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with the Selling Shareholder Information; provided, further, that the liability under this subsection of the Selling Shareholder shall be limited to an amount equal to the aggregate gross proceeds after underwriting commissions and discounts, but before expenses, to the Selling Shareholder from the sale of Shares sold by the Selling Shareholder hereunder.
(c) Indemnification of the Company, Directors and Officers and the Selling Shareholder. Each Underwriter severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, and the Selling Shareholder, and each person, if any, who controls the Selling Shareholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in subsection (a) of this Section 6 (other than the final proviso therein), but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including the Rule 430 Information, any preliminary prospectus, the General Disclosure Package, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information.
(d) Actions against Parties; Notification. Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this Section 6. In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(a) and 6(b) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by Barclays, and, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(c) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Company or the Selling Shareholder, as applicable. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel (including local counsel) of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel, other than local counsel if not appointed by the indemnifying party, retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below). Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel (including local counsel) to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 6 or Section 7 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement,
24
compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
(e) Settlement without Consent if Failure to Reimburse. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 6(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.
(f) Other Agreements with Respect to Indemnification. The provisions of this Section 6 shall not affect any agreement between the Company and the Selling Shareholder with respect to indemnification.
SECTION 7. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 6 hereof is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Shareholder, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, from the offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Selling Shareholder, on the one hand, and of the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions, which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
The relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Shareholder, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Selling Shareholder, on the one hand, and the total underwriting discount received by the Underwriters, on the other hand, in each case as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate initial public offering price of the Shares as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus.
The relative fault of the Company and the Selling Shareholder, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Selling Shareholder or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
The Company, the Selling Shareholder and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 7. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 7 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such
25
indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the underwriting commissions received by such Underwriter in connection with the Shares underwritten by it and distributed to the public.
No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
For purposes of this Section 7, each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act and each Underwriter’s Affiliates and selling agents shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Selling Shareholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company or the Selling Shareholder, as the case may be. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7 are several in proportion to the number of shares of Firm Stock set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule A hereto and not joint.
The provisions of this Section 7 shall not affect any agreement between the Company and the Selling Shareholder with respect to contribution.
SECTION 8. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or in certificates of officers of the Delek Entities or the Selling Shareholder submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or its Affiliates or selling agents, any person controlling any Underwriter, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Company or any person controlling the Selling Shareholder and (ii) delivery of and payment for the Shares.
SECTION 9. Termination of Agreement.
(a) Termination. The Representative may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Company and the Selling Shareholder, at any time at or prior to the Closing Time (i) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States or the international financial markets, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representative, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the completion of the offering or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Shares, (ii) if trading in the Common Stock of the Company has been suspended or materially limited by the Commission or the NYSE, (iii) if trading generally on the NYSE or in the Nasdaq Global Market has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices have been required, by any of said exchanges or by order of the Commission, FINRA or any other governmental authority, (iv) a material disruption has occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States or with respect to Clearstream or Euroclear systems in Europe, or (v) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either Federal or New York authorities.
26
(b) Liabilities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 9, such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Section 4 hereof, and provided further that Sections 6, 7, 15 and 16 hereof shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect.
SECTION 10. Default by One or More of the Underwriters. If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail at the Closing Time or the Date of Delivery to purchase the Shares which it or they are obligated to purchase under this Agreement (the “Defaulted Shares”), the Representative shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non‑defaulting Underwriters, or any other underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Shares in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the Representative shall not have completed such arrangements within such 24‑hour period, then:
(i) if the number of Defaulted Shares does not exceed 10% of the number of Shares to be purchased on such date, each of the non‑defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations hereunder bear to the underwriting obligations of all non‑defaulting Underwriters, or
(ii) if the number of Defaulted Shares exceeds 10% of the number of Shares to be purchased on such date, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any of the Defaulted Shares and if such non-defaulting Underwriters do not elect to purchase all the Defaulted Shares, this Agreement or, with respect to the Date of Delivery, the obligation of the Underwriters to purchase, and the Selling Shareholder to sell, the Option Stock to be purchased and sold on such Date of Delivery, shall terminate without liability on the part of any non‑defaulting Underwriter.
No action taken pursuant to this Section 10 shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default.
In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement or, in the case of the Date of Delivery, which does not result in a termination of the obligation of the Underwriters to purchase, and the Selling Shareholder to sell, the relevant Option Stock, as the case may be, either the (i) Representative or (ii) the Company and the Selling Shareholder shall have the right to postpone the Closing Time or the Date of Delivery, as the case may be, for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements. As used herein, the term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section 10.
SECTION 11. Default by the Selling Shareholder. If the Selling Shareholder shall fail at the Closing Time or the Date of Delivery, as the case may be, to sell and deliver the number of Shares which the Selling Shareholder is obligated to sell hereunder, then the Underwriters may, at the option of the Representative, by notice from the Representative to the Company, terminate this Agreement without any liability on the part of any non-defaulting party except that the provisions of Sections 1, 4, 6, 7, 8, 16, 17 and 18 hereof shall remain in full force and effect. No action taken pursuant to this Section 11 shall relieve the Selling Shareholder so defaulting from liability, if any, in respect of such default.
In the event of a default by the Selling Shareholder as referred to in this Section 11, each of the Representative and the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Time or the Date of Delivery, as the case may be, for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required change in the
27
Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements.
SECTION 12. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed or transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication.

SECTION 13. USA Patriot Act. In accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Underwriters are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the Company and the Selling Shareholder, which information may include the name and address of their respective clients, as well as other information that will allow the Underwriters to properly identify their respective clients.
SECTION 14. No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. Each of the Company and the Selling Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that (a) the purchase and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the public offering price of the Shares and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company and the Selling Shareholder, on the one hand, and the several Underwriters, on the other hand, (b) in connection with the offering of the Shares and the process leading thereto, each Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary of the Delek Entities or the Selling Shareholder or their respective stockholders, creditors, employees or any other party, (c) no Underwriter has assumed or will assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or the Selling Shareholder with respect to the offering of the Shares or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Delek Entities or the Selling Shareholder on other matters) and no Underwriter has any obligation to the Company or the Selling Shareholder with respect to the offering of the Shares except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, (d) the Underwriters and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of each of the Company and the Selling Shareholder and (e) the Underwriters have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering of the Shares and the Company and the Selling Shareholder have consulted their own respective legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate.
SECTION 15. Parties. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Underwriters, the Company and the Selling Shareholder and their respective successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the Underwriters, the Company and the Selling Shareholder and their respective successors and the controlling persons and officers and directors referred to in Sections 6 and 7 hereof and their heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained. This Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof are intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Underwriters, the Company and the Selling Shareholder and their respective successors, and said controlling persons and officers and directors and their heirs and legal representatives, and for the benefit of no other person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of Shares from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.
SECTION 16. No Trial by Jury. The Company (on its behalf and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on behalf of its stockholders and affiliates), the Selling Shareholder and each of the
28
Underwriters hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
SECTION 17. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
SECTION 18. Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Immunity. Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (“Related Proceedings”) shall be instituted in (i) the federal courts of the United States of America located in the City and County of New York, Borough of Manhattan or (ii) the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York, Borough of Manhattan (collectively, the “Specified Courts”), and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction (except for proceedings instituted in regard to the enforcement of a judgment of any such court (a “Related Judgment”), as to which such jurisdiction is non-exclusive) of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. Service of any process, summons, notice or document by mail to such party’s address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court. The parties irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or other proceeding in the Specified Courts and irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that any such suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

Exhibit A-1
FORM OF OPINION OF BASS, BERRY & SIMS PLC
1.Formation and Qualification. Each of the Company and the Significant Subsidiaries listed on Annex A hereto (the “Covered Subsidiaries” and, together with the Company, the “Covered Entities”) is validly existing as a corporation or limited liability company, as applicable, and is in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware with all requisite corporate or limited liability company power and corporate or limited liability company authority to own or lease its properties and conduct its business in all material respects as described in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. Each of the Covered Entities is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or limited liability company, as applicable, in each jurisdiction set forth opposite its name on Annex A hereto.
2.Capitalization. The authorized, issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company is as set forth in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under the caption “Description of Capital Stock” (except for subsequent issuances, if any, pursuant to reservations, agreements or employee benefit plans referred to in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus or pursuant to the exercise of convertible securities or options referred to in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus). The shares of issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company, including the Shares to be purchased by the Underwriters from the Selling Shareholder, have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non‑assessable; and none of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company was issued in violation of the preemptive or other similar rights under the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) or contract known to such counsel of any securityholder of the Company. Except as described in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, all of the outstanding shares of capital stock or other ownership interests of the Covered Subsidiaries are owned, directly or indirectly of record, and to such counsel’s knowledge, beneficially, by the Company.
3.Authority and Authorization. The Company has all requisite corporate power and corporate authority under the DGCL to execute and deliver the Underwriting Agreement and to perform its obligations thereunder. All corporate action required to be taken by the Company for the consummation of any transactions provided for in the Underwriting Agreement has been validly taken.
4.Authorization of Agreements. The Underwriting Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company.
5.Non-contravention. None of (A) the offering or sale by the Selling Shareholder of the Shares, (B) the execution, delivery and performance of the Underwriting Agreement by the Company or (C) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement by the Company (i) constitutes or will constitute a violation of the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or similar organizational documents of any of the Delek Entities, (ii) constitutes or will constitute a breach or violation of, or a default (or an event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default) under, or will result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property or assets of any of the Delek Entities under any agreement or other instrument filed or incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (the “2013 Annual Report”) and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2014, including any amendments thereto (but no opinion need be given with respect to Exhibits 10.1-10.3, 10.6, or 10.12-10.17 included in the 2013 Annual Report (Executive Compensation Plans and Management Contracts), or (iii) violates or will violate the DGCL or any judgment or order known to such counsel of any federal or Delaware court or governmental
A-1-1
agency or body having jurisdiction over the Delek Entities or their properties or assets, which conflicts, breaches, violations, defaults or Liens in the case of clauses (ii) or (iii), would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or to materially impair the ability of the Company to consummate the transactions provided for in the Underwriting Agreement; provided, however, that such counsel need express no opinion in this paragraph 5 with respect to federal or state securities laws and other anti-fraud laws.
6.No Consents. No consent, approval, authorization, order, registration, filing or qualification (“consent”) of or with any Delaware or federal court, governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over any of the Delek Entities or their properties or assets, is required in connection with (i) the offering or sale by the Selling Shareholders of the Shares, (ii) the execution, delivery and performance of the Underwriting Agreement by the Company or (iii) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement by the Company, other than (a) registration of the Shares under the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (as to which such counsel need not express an opinion), (b) any necessary qualification under the securities or blue sky laws of the various jurisdictions in which the Shares are being offered by the Underwriters (as to which such counsel need not express an opinion), (c) under the bylaws and rules and regulations of FINRA (as to which such counsel need not express an opinion), (d) consents that have been obtained and (e) where the failure to obtain such consent would neither reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect nor materially impair the ability of the Company to consummate the transactions provided for in the Underwriting Agreement.
7.Effectiveness of Registration Statement. The Registration Statement is an “automatic shelf registration statement,” as defined in Rule 405 of the 1933 Act, that automatically became effective upon filing with the Commission on May 7, 2014. Any required filing of the Prospectus, and any supplements thereto, pursuant to Rule 424(b) has been made in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b); and, to the knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any notice objecting to its use has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or threatened by the Commission.
8.Incorporated Documents. The documents incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (other than the financial statements and supporting schedules included therein or omitted therefrom, as to which we need express no opinion), when they were filed with the Commission complied as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations.
9.Description of Common Stock. The description of the Common Stock set forth under the caption “Description of Capital Stock” and in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form 8-A/A filed with the Commission on May 13, 2014, constitutes an accurate summary of the terms of the Common Stock in all material respects.
10.Investment Company Act. None of the Delek Entities is now, or immediately following the sale of the Shares to be sold by the Selling Shareholder pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, will be, an “investment company” as defined in the 1940 Act.
In rendering such opinion, such counsel may (i) rely in respect of matters of fact upon certificates of officers and employees of the Delek Entities and upon information obtained from public officials, (ii) assume that all documents submitted to such counsel as originals are authentic, that all copies submitted to such counsel conform to the originals thereof, and that the signatures on all documents examined by such counsel are genuine and that all natural persons have legal capacity to act, (iii) state that its opinion
A-1-2
is limited to matters governed by federal law, the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, and the DGCL, (iv) with respect to the opinions expressed as to the good standing or due qualification or registration as a foreign corporation or limited liability company, as the case may be, of the Covered Entities, state that such opinions are based upon certificates of good standing, foreign qualification or registration provided by the Secretary of State of the states listed on Annex A to be attached to such counsel’s opinion (each of which shall be dated as of a date not more than fourteen days prior to the Closing Time and shall be provided to counsel to the Underwriters), and (v) state that they express no opinion with respect to (A) any permits to own or operate any real or personal property or (B) state or local taxes or tax statutes to which any of the Delek Entities may be subject.
In addition, such counsel shall make statements to the following effect:
Additionally, you have solicited certain comments from us regarding the contents of the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. We have reviewed the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and have participated in conferences with officers and other representatives of the Company, with representatives of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, and with your representatives and your counsel, at which the contents of the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and related matters were discussed. The purpose of our professional engagement was not to establish or confirm factual matters set forth in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, and we have not undertaken to verify independently any of the factual matters in such documents. Moreover, many of the determinations required to be made in the preparation of the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus involve matters of a non-legal nature. Accordingly, we are not passing upon, and do not assume any responsibility for, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained or included in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (except to the extent stated in paragraph 9 above). Subject to the foregoing and on the basis of the information we gained in the course of performing the services referred to above, we advise you that:
(a) the Registration Statement, at the Effective Date, and the Prospectus, as of its date, appeared on their face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the requirements of the 1933 Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (except that in each case we do not express any view as to the financial statements and related notes, and the schedules and other financial information included therein or excluded therefrom); and
(b) no facts have come to our attention that have caused us to believe that:
(A) the Registration Statement, at the Effective Date contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (except that we do not express any view as to the financial statements and related notes, and the schedules and other financial information included therein or excluded therefrom or in the statements contained in the exhibits to the Registration Statement),
(B) the General Disclosure Package, as of the Applicable Time, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (except that in each case we do not express any view as to the financial statements and related notes, and the schedules and other financial information included therein or excluded therefrom or in the statements contained in the exhibits to the Registration Statement), or
A-1-3
(C) the Prospectus, as of its date and as of the date hereof, contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (except that we do not express any view as to the financial statements and related notes, and the schedules and other financial information included therein or excluded therefrom or in the statements contained in the exhibits to the Registration Statement).

In recognition of the benefit that such an offering will confer upon the undersigned as a stockholder of the Company, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned agrees with each underwriter to be named in the Underwriting Agreement that, during the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on December 31, 2014, the undersigned will not, without the prior written consent of the Representative, directly or indirectly, (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of or transfer any shares of the Company’s Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the undersigned or with respect to which the undersigned has or hereafter acquires the power of disposition (collectively, the “Lock-Up Shares”), or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any of the Lock-up Shares, or file or cause to be filed any registration statement in connection therewith, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or (ii) enter into any swap or any other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of ownership of the Lock-Up Shares, whether any such swap or transaction is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise, provided, however, that the foregoing restrictions do not apply to the sale of the Shares by the Selling Shareholder to the underwriters in connection with the Offering.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the conditions below, the undersigned may transfer the Lock-Up Shares without the prior written consent of the Representative, provided that (1) the Representative receives a signed lock-up agreement for the balance of the lockup period from each donee, trustee, distributee, or transferee, as the case may be, (2) such transfers are not required to be reported with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 4 in accordance with Section 16 of the 1934 Act and (3) the undersigned does not otherwise voluntarily effect any public filing or report regarding such transfers to the undersigned’s affiliates or to any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by the undersigned.
Furthermore, the undersigned may sell shares of Common Stock of the Company purchased by the undersigned on the open market following the Offering if and only if (i) such sales are not required to be reported in any public report or filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or otherwise and (ii) the undersigned does not otherwise voluntarily effect any public filing or report regarding such sales.
