“4.1    Quarterly Volume Commitment.



a.
Commitment. During each Calendar Quarter, MPC will tender the respective volumes of Products identified by Calendar Quarter for each Terminal in Schedule 3.1 (each a “Minimum Quarterly Terminal Volume Commitment”) for redelivery (including transshipments but excluding Transmix and EV) at each Terminal.”
5. Section 4.3(d)(i) and (ii) are hereby deleted in their entirety and replaced with the following:

“(d) Prospective Volume Adjustment Opportunity.
(i)
Commencing with the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date and continuing every five years under the Term thereafter (each such date, an “Adjustment Opportunity Date”), Terminal Owner shall provide a statement to MPC, along with reasonable supporting documentation, showing (A) the Terminals or Terminal Complexes for which a Terminal Deficiency Payment was made during the previous five year period; (B) the average actual volumes of Products tendered for redelivery (including transshipments but excluding Transmix and EV) at each such Terminal or Terminal Complex, as applicable, on a Calendar Quarter basis; and (C) a calculation showing the percentage decrease of the volumes calculated in Section 4.3(d)(i)(B) (“x”) versus the Minimum Quarterly Terminal Volume Commitments or Aggregate Committed Complex Volume, as applicable (“y”), such calculation being expressed mathematically as (x-y)/y.
(ii) If the percentage reduction calculated for any such Terminal or Terminal Complex, as applicable, in Section 4.3(d)(i)(C) is equal to or greater than 25%, then MPC, at its option, may require Terminal Owner to negotiate in good faith, a reasonable reduction in the Minimum Quarterly Terminal Volume Commitments for such Terminals not to exceed the percentage reduction determined in Section 4.3(d)(i)(C); provided, however, that if MPC requires Terminal Owner to negotiate a volume adjustment pursuant to this Section, Terminal Owner may require MPC to negotiate in good faith (A) a reasonable reduction in the Reserved Capacity for such Terminals not to exceed the percentage difference determined in Section 4.3(d)(i)(C), and (B) a reasonable increase in the Minimum Quarterly Terminal Volume Commitments at Terminals where the average actual volumes of Products tendered for redelivery (including transshipments but excluding Transmix and EV) at each such Terminal on a Calendar Quarter basis exceeds the Minimum Quarterly Terminal Volume Commitments by 25% or more for the same previous five year period.”
6. Section 5.1 is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

5.1 Fees. In consideration of the Reserved Capacity and the Services performed by Terminal Owner hereunder, MPC shall pay Terminal Owner the following fees (collectively, the “Fees”):

Base Throughput Fee. The base throughput fee for each corresponding Terminal set forth on Schedule 5.1 (each a “Base Throughput Fee”) shall apply to volumes of MPC’s Products (excluding Transmix and EV) redelivered hereunder up to the Minimum Quarterly Terminal Volume Commitment. The Base Throughput Fee shall be charged on a per Gallon basis measured at the redelivery point and, except for the Marine Docks, butane blending and ethanol denaturing, is inclusive of all Services provided hereunder, including additization, renewable fuel blending and Transmix handling.
(b)
Excess Throughput Fee. For volume of MPC’s Products (excluding Transmix and EV) redelivered hereunder in excess of the Minimum Quarterly Terminal Volume Commitment, the excess throughput fee for each corresponding Terminal set forth on Schedule 5.1 (each an “Excess Throughput Fee”) shall apply. The Excess Throughput Fee shall be charged on a per Gallon basis measured at the redelivery point and, except for the Marine Docks, butane blending and ethanol denaturing, is inclusive of all Services provided hereunder, including additization, renewable fuel blending and Transmix handling.
(c)
Marine Docks. With respect to the Marine Docks, the Fees shall also include a Monthly facility fee set forth on Schedule 5.1 for the exclusive suite of Services typically applicable to marine dock facilities and provided at the Marine Docks.

(d)
Butane Blending. The fees for butane blending Services provided by Terminal Owner to MPC or its designated customers hereunder shall be calculated and charged as set forth on Schedule 5.1.



(e)
Ethanol Denaturing. The fees for ethanol denaturing Services provided by Terminal Owner hereunder shall be calculated and charged as set forth on Schedule 5.1.
(f)
Deficiency.
(i)
Quarterly Deficiency. If MPC fails to meet any of its Minimum Quarterly Terminal Volume Commitments during any Calendar Quarter, then MPC will pay Terminal Owner a deficiency payment (each, a “Terminal Deficiency Payment”) equal to the volume in Gallons of the Minimum Quarterly Terminal Volume Commitment deficiency multiplied by the applicable Base Throughput Fee for the affected Terminal; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein including the fact that MPC failed to meet a Minimum Quarterly Terminal Volume Commitment for a particular Terminal during a Calendar Quarter, (A) MPC shall not be liable for payment of any Terminal Deficiency Payment if (1) such Terminal is included in a Terminal Complex; and (2) the applicable Aggregate Actual Complex Volume for the applicable Calendar Quarter meets or exceeds the Aggregate Committed Complex Volume for such Calendar Quarter; and (B) if the Aggregate Committed Complex Volume for such Calendar Quarter exceeds the Aggregate Actual Complex Volume for such Calendar Quarter, MPC, as to such Terminals in the Terminal Complex, shall be liable for a Terminal Deficiency Payment equal to the sum of: (1) at each Terminal included in such Terminal Complex which failed to meet its Minimum Quarterly Terminal Volume Commitment, the volume in Gallons of the Minimum Quarterly Terminal Volume Commitment deficiency divided by the sum of the differences between the volume in Gallons of the Minimum Quarterly Terminal Volume Commitment and the actual volume of Products in Gallons tendered for redelivery at each Terminal in such Terminal Complex that experienced a deficiency during such Calendar Quarter, (2) for each such Terminal, multiplied by the difference by which the Aggregate Committed Complex Volume for such Calendar Quarter exceeds the Aggregate Actual Complex Volume for such Calendar Quarter, and (3) multiplied by the applicable Base Throughput Fee for each such Terminal.
(ii)
Quarterly True-Up. Promptly following each Calendar Quarter, Terminal Owner shall provide MPC a written statement showing the Quarterly Aggregate Volume Commitment versus the Actual Quarterly Aggregate Volume. If the Actual Quarterly Aggregate Volume exceeds the Quarterly Aggregate Volume Commitment, MPC shall not owe and shall be relieved from payment to Terminal Owner of any Terminal Deficiency Payments determined pursuant to Section 5.1(f)(i) for the applicable Calendar Quarter.
(iii)
Exclusive Remedy. Section 5.1(f) sets forth Terminal Owner’s sole and exclusive remedy for MPC’s failure to meet any of its Minimum Quarterly Terminal Volume Commitments or, if applicable, Aggregate Committed Complex Volumes, during any applicable Calendar Quarter.

Butane Blending  

(A)Facilities with Third Party Licensed Blending Technology

From and after July 1, 2019, at facilities at which Energy Transfer Partners LP (“ETP”) licenses blending technology to MPC, Terminal Owner’s fee for performing the butane blending service shall be calculated as follows:

Ninety-five percent (95%) of the difference between the Daily Gasoline Value (defined below) and the Daily Butane Value (defined below). Expressed as a formula, the Butane Blending Service Fee is:

Butane Blending Service Fee = (DGV-DBV)* 95%

NOTE: Terminal Owner will reflect an annual true up value cost or revenue, as defined in Section 4 of this Schedule 5.1, as a separate line item on any monthly invoices submitted pursuant to this Agreement.

Definitions:

1.Daily Gasoline Value (“DGV”): Expressed as a formula:

DGV = (GB)*(GPV+TF)

GB: number of gallons of butane blended on a given day at the terminal site.
GPV: daily gasoline posted value per gallon.
TF: the transportation fee for moving spot purchased gasoline to the terminal for the gasoline grade in which the butane is blended.

     a. The GPV is calculated by location as follows:

b. The TF is the avoided MPC cost of transporting one Gallon of gasoline (in the most cost effective method possible) to a terminal blending location, as verified and provided by MPC’s Supply Distribution & Planning - Light Products Project Analysis organization.

2.
Daily Butane Value (“DBV”): the daily agreed upon butane purchase price (“BPP”) from ETP plus the total daily RIN value (DRV), multiplied by the daily total number of butane gallons blended (“GB”). Expressed as a formula:

DBV = (GB)*(BPP+DRV)

Bay City DBV = (GB)*(BPP+1/2DRV)

“DRV” will be determined by using the percentage of each type of RINs specified by the Renewable Fuel Standard Program updated annually or the most recent requirements and will be adjusted retroactively for any difference between the requirements at the time of the calculation and the requirements contained in a final rule establishing Renewable Volume Obligations for the year. OPIS daily posting for the respective RINs pricing will be used. In order to minimize the daily average RINs Cost, postings for prior years RINs will be used up to the maximum allowable percentage.




3.
Profit Sharing Payment (“PSP”): For each calendar month, a Profit Sharing Payment is paid by ETP to MPC for volumes blended at the Bay City terminal. The (“PSP”) is calculated as the volume of gallons blended (“GB”) at Bay City in such month multiplied by fifty percent multiplied by the following value: (A) the volume weighted daily average of the high and low assessments of Argus posted Chicago Cycle 1 gasoline price (85 CBOB) minus (B) the volume weighted daily average of the high and low assessments of the OPIS posted Mt. Belvieu TET normal butane price minus (C) the average supply cost.

Fee calculations pursuant to this Schedule 5.1 for butane blending services completed prior to July 1, 2019 shall not be affected by changes in the foregoing formulas.

4.
Annual True-Up: This cost or revenue is intended to cover changes in the estimated vs actual transportation costs, half of shared maintenance expenses, and estimated vs actual butane purchase costs. The cost or revenue is calculated by ETP. MPC will pass ninety-five (95%) of this to Terminal Owner.

B)
Facilities Without Third Party Licensed Blending Technology

From and after September 1, 2018, at facilities at which no third party licensed blending technology is utilized, Terminal Owner’s fee for performing the tank butane blending service shall be calculated as follows:

Ninety-five percent (95%) of the difference between the Tank Daily Gasoline Value (defined below) and the Tank Daily Butane Value (defined below). Expressed as a formula, the Tank Butane Blending Service Fee is:

Tank Butane Blending Service Fee = (TDGV-TDBV)* 95%


Definitions:
1.
Tank Daily Gasoline Value (“TDGV”): Expressed as a formula:

TDGV = (GB)*(GPV+TF)

GB: number of gallons of butane blended on a given day at the terminal site.
GPV: daily gasoline posted value per gallon.
TF: the avoided transportation fee for moving spot purchased gasoline to the terminal for the gasoline grade in which the butane is blended.

a.
The GPV is calculated by location using the daily posted average of either Argus 85 CBOB or Argus PREM spot prices for the respective blend and market derived from Schedule 3.1.

b.
The TF is the avoided MPC cost of transporting one Gallon of gasoline (in the most cost effective method possible) to a terminal blending location, as verified and provided by MPC’s Supply Distribution & Planning - Light Products Project Analysis organization.

2.
Tank Daily Butane Value (“TDBV”): the daily agreed upon tank butane purchase price (“TBPP”) from supplier, plus the total daily RIN value (DRV), multiplied by the daily total number of butane gallons blended (“GB”). Expressed as a formula:




DBV = (GB)*(TBPP+DRV+TC)

a.
The TC is the trucking cost of transporting one Gallon of butane (in the most cost effective method possible) to a terminal blending location..

b.
“DRV” will be determined by using the percentage of each type of RINs specified by the Renewable Fuel Standard Program updated annually or the most recent requirements and will be adjusted retroactively for any difference between the requirements at the time of the calculation and the requirements contained in a final rule establishing Renewable Volume Obligations for the year. OPIS daily posting for the respective RINs pricing will be used. In order to minimize the daily average RINs Cost, postings for prior years RINs will be used up to the maximum allowable percentage.

3.
In the event MPC requests the butane skid for temporary use at an MPC owned terminal(s), MPC shall pay an MPLX Tank Butane Blending Equipment Service Fee equal to 5% of the blending value. Expressed as a formula:

a.
MPLX Tank Butane Blending Equipment Service Fee = (TDGV-TDBV)* 5%.

4.
Annual Adjustment to Revenue: This cost or revenue is intended to cover changes in the estimated vs actual transportation costs. Annually during the month of April, MPC will issue an adjustment of revenue to MPLX. This adjustment will be the result in changes of actual vs previously estimated trucking costs associated with delivery of butane to the terminals for the previous April- March.


Ethanol Denaturing

$0.02 per Gallon of undenatured ethanol.


Unit Train Ethanol Receipts

Beginning on January 15, 2017 and continuing thereafter for so long as the Master Terminal Services Agreement by and between MPC and ECO Energy Distribution Services LLC dated October 19, 2015 (the “ECO Agreement”) has not terminated, been cancelled or otherwise expired pursuant to its terms or agreement of the parties thereto, each of the following shall apply:

1.MPC shall pay Terminal Owner $0.0135 per Gallon for Unit Train Ethanol Receipts; provided that the invoice for the month ending March 31 of each year (or upon termination of the ECO Agreement, prorated according to the time of such termination) shall include an additional fee of $0.0135 per Gallon of Unit Train Ethanol Receipts that are less than 111,360,000 Gallons for the 12-month period ending on March 31 of the same year (prorated for the time period between January 15, 2017 through March 31, 2017). The $0.0135 per Gallon fee set forth in this Section shall be adjusted at the time of and in an amount equal to any adjustment to the Throughput Fees (as defined in the ECO Agreement) pursuant to Section 6.1(b) of the Eco Agreement, as may be amended from time to time.




At the end of each Calendar Quarter, Terminal Owner shall credit MPC on the monthly invoice (or upon termination of the ECO Agreement, prorated according to the time of such termination) an amount equal to the sum of (a) the Base Throughput Fee for Selma (Buffalo) set forth in Schedule 5.1 (as adjusted) multiplied by the volume (in Gallons) of ethanol redelivered by truck from the Selma (Buffalo) Terminal to the Selma (West Oak) Terminals during such Calendar Quarter; and (b) the Base Throughput Fee for Selma (Buffalo) set forth in Schedule 5.1 (as adjusted) multiplied by the volume (in Gallons) of ethanol redelivered per MPC’s direction from the Selma (Buffalo) Terminal into trucks for ECO during such Calendar Quarter.

Ethanol Excess Volume Value Capture

MPC will pay Terminal Owner fees as calculated herein for EV at Terminals where sales volume is made on a temperature corrected basis.

The value will be calculated via the following method: Multiply the volume by the price per the calculations described in the following two paragraphs.

The volume will be calculated via the following method: The American Petroleum Institute’s Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards Chapter 11.3.4 “Miscellaneous Hydrocarbon Properties – Denatured Ethanol and Gasoline Blend Densities and Volume Correction Factors” (“Chapter 11.3.4”) provides data-based equations for Blends of Gasoline and Ethanol (“BGE”). Chapter 11.3.4 addresses excess volumes of gasohol (“EV”) created when gasoline and ethanol components are blended together. EV for truck rack throughput at Terminals equipped with Terminal Automation Software (TAS) will be calculated using the equation in Chapter 11.3.4 performed by TAS for any BGE. The TAS will be programmed to calculate EV by multiplying these BGE volumes by the correction factors as calculated using the equation from Chapter 11.3.4. This process of crediting Terminal Owner with the EV based on the technology Terminal Owner installed and maintains at its Terminals is known as “Ethanol Excess Volume Value Capture.”

The price will be calculated via the following method: Each Terminal is assigned to the CHICAGO (Midwest-designated as ‘MW’) or US GULF COAST (Southeast-designated as ‘SE’) region based on Schedule 3.1. EV credited to Terminal Owner will be valued using the non-weighted monthly average ARGUS 85 Assessment MID CBOB price for given market based on the location of the Terminal. The Midwest (‘MW’) will be using West Shore and Gulf Coast (‘SE’) will be using Pasadena posted pricing.





Schedule 7.1 – Market Price Formula

Each terminal location will be assigned to the CHICAGO (Midwest designated as ’MW’) or US GULF COAST (Southeast designated as ‘SE’) based on Region column on Schedule 3.1. The Midwest (‘MW’) will be using West Shore and Gulf Coast (‘SE’) will be using Pasadena posted pricing as published by ARGUS.

Ordinary Handling Losses in excess of 0.25% will be valued via pricing gasoline and distillate proration between ARGUS 85 Assessment MID CBOB and ARGUS Ultra-low sulfur diesel Assessment MID, considering CHICAGO/US GULF COAST markets to determine one weighted average price for the given month.

Extraordinary losses will be valued based on individual incident. The ARGUS price for commodity or commodities involved in the incident will be used, considering CHICAGO/US GULF COAST pricing based on the Terminal location Assignment. If the incident involves Transmix, valuation should be based on the lower of the Assessment MID ARGUS 85 CBOB or Ultra-low sulfur diesel value less $0.10/gallon, considering CHICAGO/US GULF COAST pricing based on the Terminal location.

VRU Gains will be valued using the non-weighted monthly average ARGUS 85 Assessment MID CBOB price for given market based on the Terminal location.
