without giving effect to any purchase accounting adjustments resulting from the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b)Until such time as the Final Closing Date Statement shall become final in accordance with Section 2.4(c), NPH shall permit Purchaser and its representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours, to the Books and Records and personnel of each member of the Company Group and the parties providing accounting services under the Transition Services Agreement (“Accounting Services Providers”) to aid in Purchaser’s review of the Closing Date Statement; provided, however, NPH shall not be required to provide such access or disclose such materials to the extent such access or disclosure would unreasonably interfere with the normal business or operations of NPH or the Accounting Services Providers or, as determined by counsel in good faith, (i) any such materials are subject to the terms of a non-disclosure agreement or undertaking with a third party as of the date thereof, (ii) any such materials constitute privileged attorney-client communications or attorney work product, or (iii) disclosure of any such materials would be prohibited by Law. Purchaser shall have the right to review the work papers of NPH and the Accounting Services Providers underlying or utilized in preparing the Closing Date Statement and the calculation of the actual Purchase Price, subject to the execution of a customary access letter, including the actual Cash Amount, the actual Working Capital, the actual Closing Indebtedness, and the actual Transaction Expenses, as of the Measurement Time on the Closing Date, as set forth in the Closing Date Statement to the extent reasonably necessary to verify the accuracy of the Closing Date Statement and the calculation of Final Purchase Price, including the Final Cash Amount, the Final Working Capital, the Final Closing Indebtedness, and the Final Transaction Expenses in conformity with this Agreement.

(c)Within 30 calendar days after its receipt of the Closing Date Statement, Purchaser shall either inform NPH in writing that the Closing Date Statement is acceptable or object thereto in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail a description of each of its objections. If Purchaser does not provide NPH with written notice of its objection to or acceptance of the Closing Date Statement, Purchaser will be deemed for all purposes to have accepted the Closing Date Statement as presented to it. If Purchaser so objects, and Purchaser and NPH do not resolve such objections on a mutually agreeable basis within 30 calendar days after NPH’s receipt of such objections, the remaining disputed items shall be submitted to Deloitte LLP (“Deloitte”) or, if Deloitte is not available for such engagement or at the time of such proposed engagement is no longer independent, such other nationally recognized independent certified public accounting firm reasonably agreed to by Purchaser and NPH (Deloitte, or such other accounting firm mutually agreed to by NPH and Purchaser, the “Accounting Firm”). All such discussions between NPH and Purchaser regarding the objections (including any written materials exchanged in connection with such discussions) shall be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule. Purchaser and NPH shall promptly execute any reasonable engagement letter requested by Accounting Firm and shall each cooperate fully with Accounting Firm, including by providing the information, data and work papers used by each Party to prepare or calculate the Closing Date Statement, so as to enable Accounting Firm to make such determination as quickly and as accurately as practicable, but shall be under no obligation to provide such information to the other party once the matter has been submitted to the Accounting Firm. If Purchaser and NPH cannot agree on an independent, nationally recognized accounting firm within 10 calendar days of determining that an Accounting Firm other than Deloitte must be appointed as contemplated above, then Purchaser and/or NPH may submit a request to JAMS (formerly known as Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc.) requesting appointment of a nationally recognized independent certified public accounting firm to serve as Accounting Firm. Purchaser and NPH shall direct the Accounting Firm to resolve such disputed items within 30 calendar days of submission of the disputed items. Upon the agreement of Purchaser and NPH, the decision of the Accounting Firm, or if Purchaser fails to deliver an objection to NPH within the first 30-day period referred to above, then the Closing Date Statement, as the same may be adjusted as a result of agreement of the Parties or the decision of the Accounting Firm (the “Final Closing Date

Statement”), shall be final, conclusive, and binding against the Parties hereto including the calculation of the Closing Indebtedness (“Final Closing Indebtedness”), the Cash Amount (“Final Cash Amount”), the Working Capital (which, for the avoidance of doubt, is calculated after taking into account the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, as of the end of the Closing Date) (“Final Working Capital”), the Transaction Expenses (the “Final Transaction Expenses”) and the resulting Final Purchase Price set forth therein. No adjustment shall occur (i) as a result of the actual cost of repairs to the Statia Facility exceeding the mutually agreed upon Repair Budget or (ii) in respect of costs relating to the excess water referred to in the definition of Water Removal Cost exceeding the mutually agreed upon Water Removal Cost.

(d)In resolving any disputed item, the Accounting Firm (i) shall be bound by the provisions of this Section 2.4 and the other terms, provisions, and definitions set forth in this Agreement, (ii) shall not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value claimed for such item or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by NPH or Purchaser, (iii) shall limit its decision to such items as are in dispute, and (iv) shall make its determination based solely on written presentations by NPH and Purchaser that are in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement (i.e., not on the basis of independent review). The fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated by the Accounting Firm between Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of the disputed items so submitted to the Accounting Firm are unsuccessfully disputed by each such Party (as finally determined by the Accounting Firm) bears to the total amount of such disputed items so disputed.

(e)Within five (5) Business Days following the determination of the Final Purchase Price in accordance with this Section 2.4:

(i)in the event that the Final Purchase Price exceeds the Estimated Purchase Price, Purchaser shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to NPH, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, payment in an amount equal to (x) the Final Purchase Price, minus (y) the Estimated Purchase Price;

(ii)in the event that the Estimated Purchase Price exceeds the Final Purchase Price, then NPH shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Purchaser, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal to (x) the Estimated Purchase Price, minus (y) the Final Purchase Price.

Any payments made pursuant to this Section 2.4(e) shall be deemed an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

(c)If the Closing fails to occur prior to the Outside Date for any other reason (including (i) due to any exercise of the termination rights set forth in Section 8.1(d), or (ii) notwithstanding subsection (i) of Section 2.5(b), the issuance of a Prohibitive Order against or relating to any or all of NuStar, Sellers, or any member of the Company Group without regard to which Party terminates the Agreement or which subsection of Section 8.1 is relied upon to so terminate), the Deposit (and any interest accrued thereupon) shall be returned to Purchaser’s account, without any deduction or set-off whatsoever, within not more than three (3) Business Days of the earlier of (x) the date of the corresponding notice of termination or (y) the Outside Date, as applicable.

(d)If the Closing occurs, the Deposit shall be credited against the Purchase Price at the Closing.

Section 2.6    Purchase Price Allocation. Consistent with the principles of Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, the Purchase Price (and any other items constituting consideration for U.S. federal income tax purposes), as may be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.4, will be allocated in a manner consistent with such Code section. On or before the day that is 180 days after the Closing Date (and if such 180^th day is not a Business Day then the next Business Day), Purchaser will provide NPH with Purchaser’s proposed allocation of the Purchase Price. NPH may, within 15 days after the date of delivery of Purchaser’s proposed allocation (and if such 15^th day is not a Business Day then the next Business Day), notify Purchaser, in writing, of all revisions desired by NPH to Purchaser’s proposed allocation, explaining in sufficient detail all of such proposed revisions. If NPH does not provide such notice within such 15-day period, NPH (for and on behalf of Sellers as provided for in Section 11.17) will be deemed to have accepted Purchaser’s allocation of the Purchase Price for all purposes. If NPH timely provides proposed revisions to Purchaser’s proposed allocation, Purchaser shall consider in good faith all reasonable proposals made by NPH. In the event Purchaser disagrees with any (or all) of NPH’s proposals (assuming such were timely made), and Purchaser and NPH cannot resolve such disagreement(s) within 30 days after the receipt of NPH’s comments (and if such 30^th day is not a Business Day then the next Business Day), either Party may submit all (but not less than all) disputed items (but only the disputed items) to the Accounting Firm for resolution thereof, and Purchaser and NPH agree that the decision of the Accounting Firm with respect to such item(s) will be binding on them for all purposes of this Agreement. NPH and Purchaser each agree to file, or in the case of NPH cause the Sellers to file, all relevant Tax Returns, wherever filed, consistent with the final allocation of the Purchase Price.

Section 2.7    Section 338(g) Election. Purchaser and each Seller agrees that Purchaser shall make a Section 338(g) election under the Code on or before the 15th day of the ninth (9th) month following the month in which the Closing occurs, as it relates to the purchase of the stock of SSS.

Purchaser or any other applicable withholding agent will be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration otherwise payable pursuant to or as contemplated by the Transaction Documents, such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any other Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld, such deducted or withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of the Transaction Documents as having been paid to such Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

Except as set forth in the Seller Disclosure Schedules, each Seller, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to Purchaser on and as of the Execution Date (except as to such representations and warranties that address matters as of a particular date, which are given only as of such date), as follows:

(a)Subject to applicable Law or any applicable Governmental Authorizations, from the Execution Date until the Closing Date, Sellers shall, during reasonable business hours and in compliance with such reasonable procedures as Sellers may request, provide Purchaser and its representatives with access to such information, documents and properties as are in its possession or under its control relating to the Company Group or any member thereof as Purchaser may reasonably request in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, such access shall be supervised by such Persons as may be designated by Sellers and such access shall not (i) unreasonably disrupt the operations of Sellers or the Company Group, (ii) require that any Seller or any member of the Company Group disclose any information that in Sellers’ reasonable judgment would result in the disclosure of any trade secrets or violate any of Sellers’ or any member of the Company Group’s obligations with respect to confidentiality, (iii) require that any Seller or any member of the Company Group disclose any privileged information of any Seller or any member of the Company Group, (iv) require any Seller or its Affiliates (including the Company Group) to disclose any information regarding such Seller or its Affiliates (excluding the Company Group) that such Seller reasonably identifies as commercially sensitive for antitrust purposes, or (v) include any boring, drilling, or other invasive or destructive testing or sampling. All information, data, and copies of documents obtained by Purchaser pursuant to this Section 6.3 or otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement.

(b)If Purchaser exercises rights of access to any assets or properties owned, leased, used, or managed by any member of the Company Group under this Section 6.3 or otherwise, or conducts examinations or physical inspections at sites under this Section 6.3 or otherwise, then (i) such access and any related examinations or inspections shall be at Purchaser’s sole risk, cost and expense, and Purchaser waives and releases all claims against Sellers and each member of the Company Group, and each Seller Related Party arising in any way therefrom or in any way related thereto except to the extent such claim arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Seller or a member of the Company Group or a Seller Related Party, and (ii) Purchaser shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Sellers and each member of the Company Group and each Seller Related Party from any and all claims, actions, causes of action, liabilities, losses, damages, fines, penalties, costs, or expenses of any kind or character, or Liens for labor or materials, arising out of or related to property damage or personal injury caused by, or personal injury to, Purchaser’s representatives and invitees during the course of any such examinations or inspections except to the extent such claim arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Seller or a member of the Company Group or a Seller Related Party.

Section 6.4    Publicity. Prior to occurrence of the Closing, no press release or public announcement related to this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be issued or made without the joint written consent of Sellers and Purchaser, unless required by applicable Law or the rules and regulations of any stock exchange (in the reasonable opinion of counsel), in which case, Sellers and Purchaser shall have the right to review such press release or announcement prior to publication. The Confidentiality Agreement shall be deemed incorporated by reference herein as if set forth herein and shall continue in full force and effect until the Closing, unless this Agreement is terminated prior to the Closing, in which case the Confidentiality Agreement shall nonetheless continue in effect in accordance with its terms. From and after the Closing until the date that is one year after the Closing Date, Sellers shall, and shall cause its representatives to, keep confidential any and all non-public information relating to the Companies and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, provided that Sellers shall not be liable hereunder with respect to any disclosure to the extent such disclosure is determined by Sellers to be required by applicable Law, Order, or regulation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such non-public information shall not include information that becomes available to the public after Closing other than as a result of disclosure by Sellers or its Affiliates. For the avoidance of doubt, the existence of this Agreement shall be Confidential Information under the Confidentiality Agreement until such time as an announcement is made in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 6.4.  

Section 6.5    Consents Required with Respect to Transfer of Transferred Interests. Sellers and Purchaser each agree to use their reasonable best efforts to obtain, prior to Closing, any consents necessary as a result of the change of control of the Company Group (other than the Required Consents, which are addressed in Section 6.1). If there are any consents that must be obtained either as a result of the provisions of any Contract or the requirements of applicable Law, and such written consents are not obtained on or prior to the Closing, then except with respect to those items set forth in Section 2.3(a)(iv) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, Closing shall not be delayed pending satisfaction, waiver or expiration of such consent requirement. After Closing, Sellers shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser, at Purchaser’s request, to procure any such consents.

Section 6.6    No Solicitation; Other Offers. From the later of the Execution Date and the delivery of the Deposit to Sellers until the first to occur of the Closing or the Termination Date, (a) Sellers and its Affiliates shall not, and shall not authorize any of its officers, directors, employees, investment bankers, attorneys, accountants, consultants, or other agents or advisors to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate or take any action to knowingly facilitate or encourage the submission of any acquisition proposal regarding any of the Companies, the Transferred Interests, and/or the Statia Facility, or (ii) enter into or participate in any discussions or negotiations with, furnish any confidential information relating to the Companies, the Transferred Interests, and/or the Statia Facility, or afford access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of the Companies to, otherwise cooperate in any way with, or assist, participate in, facilitate, or encourage any effort by, any Person (other than Purchaser, its Affiliates and their respective representatives) that is seeking to make, or has made, an acquisition proposal with respect to the Companies, the Transferred Interests, and/or the Statia Facility; and (b) Sellers shall, unless prohibited by Law, notify Purchaser promptly after receipt by Sellers or any of the Companies, as applicable, of any acquisition proposal or any request for confidential information relating to the Companies, the Transferred Interests, and/or the Statia Facility by any Person (other than Purchaser, its Affiliates and their respective representatives). Sellers shall, unless prohibited by Law or Contract, identify such Person, and the material terms and conditions of, any such acquisition proposal, indication or request. Sellers shall terminate any and all existing activities, discussions and negotiations, if any, with any Person (other than Purchaser, its Affiliates and their respective representatives) conducted prior to the date hereof with respect to any acquisition proposal in respect of the Companies, the Transferred Interests, and/or the Statia Facility.

Section 6.7    Continuing Real Property Negotiations. Between the Execution Date and the Closing Date, Sellers shall continue to engage in good faith negotiations with the government of Sint Eustatius, using commercially reasonable efforts, to procure binding agreements on terms and conditions Sellers would have been satisfied with had Sellers remained the owners and operators of the Statia Facility, to either (i) transfer to the Public Entity of Sint Eustatius (openbaar lichaam Sint Eustatius), with registered office in Sint Eustatius, Caribbean Netherlands (“OLSE”), certain grounds owned by the Company Group for the construction of roads and infiltration ponds as set forth in that certain Memorandum of Understanding dated February 28, 2019 by and between OLSE and Terminals (“MOU”) in return for OLSE formalizing the Company Group’s ownership of the Waterfront (as defined in the MOU), or (ii) otherwise continue negotiations with respect to the ownership of the Waterfront.

Section 6.8    Notification of Certain Matters. Sellers shall promptly notify Purchaser of any of the following:

(i)Sellers’ receipt of any written notice or other written communication from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(ii)to the extent permitted by applicable Law or unless prohibited by such Governmental Authority, Sellers’ receipt of any material written notice from any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and

(iii)Sellers’ discovery of any information on or prior to the Closing that would constitute or upon any occurrence that would give rise to a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Seller contained herein that would cause Sellers to be unable to satisfy any closing condition set forth in Section 7.1 or Sections 7.3(a), (b), (d) or (f).

In addition, Purchaser shall promptly notify NPH of Purchaser’s discovery of any information on or prior to the Closing that would cause Purchaser to be unable to satisfy any closing condition set forth in Section 7.1 or Section 7.2.

Section 6.9    Financing. Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the financing that is subject to the condition set forth in Section 7.3(e) to be available at Closing. In connection with such financing, prior to the Closing, Sellers shall cooperate in good faith (and shall cause the Company Group to cooperate in good faith) with Purchaser’s efforts to obtain such financing, including through: (i) participation in a reasonable number of meetings (including allowing direct contact between appropriate members of members of senior management, representatives and non-legal advisors of Sellers and the Company Group and Purchaser’s lenders and debt investors and their representatives), drafting sessions, presentations and due diligence sessions; and (ii) assisting Purchaser in the preparation of any customary information memorandum and other customary materials to facilitate the financing to the extent required by Purchaser; provided, that none of the Sellers or the Company Group shall be required to pay any fees (other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses to be reimbursed by Purchaser) or incur any other liability in connection with the financing except for any liability of a member of the Company Group that will only arise after the occurrence of the Closing. In addition, Sellers shall, and shall cause the Company Group to, provide all necessary documentation and other information about the Company Group and each of their respective representatives as is reasonably requested with respect to applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations (including the USA PATRIOT Act), and shall cooperate with the Purchaser’s lenders, to the extent required in connection with the financing, to establish bank and other accounts and blocked account agreements and/or lock box arrangements on behalf of members of the Company Group

reasonably necessary in connection with the requirements of the Purchaser’s lenders to extend the debt financing (provided that no such agreements shall be effective prior to Closing).

Section 7.1    Conditions to Obligations of Both Parties. The respective obligations of Sellers and Purchaser to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be subject to the satisfaction at or prior to the Closing of each of the following conditions:

(a)there shall not be in effect any Order issued by a Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, nor shall any Law have been enacted that would prohibit the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (each, a “Prohibitive Order”); and

(c)Purchaser shall have delivered or caused to be delivered each of the items described in Section 2.3(b); and

any such representations and warranties to be true and correct would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that for purposes of determining the accuracy of such representations and warranties and/or the amount of any indemnifiable loss under the R&W Policy, all Material Adverse Effect and other materiality qualifiers contained in such representations and warranties shall be disregarded.

(a)at any time prior to the Closing Date, by express mutual agreement of Purchaser and NPH;

(b)by Purchaser or NPH, by written notice to the other Party, if the Closing shall not have occurred by 11:59 p.m. Central Time on July 31, 2019 (the “Outside Date”); provided, however, the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) shall not be available to a Party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement shall have been a material cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date and time;

(c)by either Purchaser or NPH, by written notice to the other Party, if any Prohibitive Order permanently prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall have become final and non-appealable; provided, however, the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c)(i) shall not be available to a Party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement shall have been a material cause of, or resulted in, the Prohibitive Order;

(d)by Purchaser, by written notice to NPH, if Sellers have (i) breached or failed to perform in any material respect any of their obligations set forth in this Agreement, or (ii) failed to deliver the certificate described in Section 2.3(a)(v), such that (a) the conditions set forth in Section 7.3 would not be satisfied or would not reasonably be expected to be satisfied as of the Closing, and (b) any such breach or failure to perform cannot be cured by Sellers or, if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured within the earlier

of (x) 30 days after receipt by NPH of notice in writing from Purchaser, specifying the nature of such breach and requesting that it be cured, and (y) three (3) Business Days prior to the Outside Date; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(d) if it is then in breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement such that the conditions set forth in Section 7.1, Section 7.2(a), Section 7.2(b), or Section 7.2(c) cannot be satisfied; or

(e)by NPH, by written notice to Purchaser, if Purchaser has breached or failed to perform in any material respect any of its obligations set forth in this Agreement, (i) such that the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 would not be satisfied or would not reasonably be expected to be satisfied as of the Closing, and (ii) such breach or failure to perform cannot be cured by Purchaser or, if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured within the earlier of (x) 30 days after receipt by Purchaser of notice in writing from NPH, specifying the nature of such breach and requesting that it be cured and (y) three (3) Business Days prior to the Outside Date; provided, that NPH shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(e) if it is then in breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement such that the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 or Section 7.3 cannot be satisfied.

Section 8.2    Effect of Termination.

(a)Subject to the other terms hereof, if this Agreement is terminated as provided in this Article 8, this Agreement shall become null and void and of no further force or effect, except for the provisions of:

(i)the Confidentiality Agreement;

(ii)this Section 8.2; and

(iii)Article 11; and

(iv)any corresponding definitions.

Subject to Section 8.2(b), nothing in this Section 8.2 shall be deemed to extinguish any right or remedy of any Party that shall have accrued hereunder prior to any such termination, or release any Party from any liability for fraud or any breach by such Party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

(b)Purchaser and Sellers agree that based upon the circumstances now existing, known and unknown, it would be impractical or extremely difficult to establish Sellers’ Damages by reason of Purchaser’s non-performance, default or breach of this Agreement prior to Closing. Accordingly, in the event Sellers retain the Deposit as provided for in this Agreement, Purchaser and Sellers agree that it would be reasonable in the event of such non-performance, default, or breach by Purchaser to award Sellers “liquidated damages” equal to the amount of the Deposit. Sellers and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that the foregoing amount is reasonable as liquidated damages and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Sellers in lieu of any other relief, right, or remedy, at law or in equity, to which Sellers might otherwise be entitled by reason of such non-performance, default, or breach by Purchaser hereunder.

Section 9.1    Employee Benefits. From and after the Closing and for no less than twelve months thereafter, Purchaser shall (or shall cause one or more members of the Company Group, or another of Purchaser’s Affiliates, as applicable, to) continue to provide current employees of Terminals and SSS, and certain employees of the Sellers or their Affiliates as set forth on Section 9.2 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules hired by Purchaser, Purchaser’s Affiliates, or any member of the Company Group, with salary or wage levels and cash bonus opportunities (excluding change-in-control, retention, equity or equity-based bonus opportunities), to the extent applicable, and with employee benefits that are, in the aggregate, comparable to those provided to each such employee as of the Closing Date.

Section 9.2    Obligations to Employees.

(a)Purchaser (A) shall (or shall cause Purchaser’s Affiliate or a member of the Company Group to), within thirty (30) days following the Closing Date, make an offer of employment to certain of those employees listed on Section 9.2 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules that Purchaser, in its sole discretion, deems necessary to Purchaser’s operation of the Statia Facility (the “Up-tier Employees”), (B) shall cause the Company Group to continue to employ each local employee of the Company Group set forth on Section 9.2 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules (“On-Island Employees”), (C) will assume the contracts for each expatriate employee who was sent to work at the Statia Facility set forth on Section 9.2 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules (“On-Island Expat Employee”) and (D) will, within thirty (30) days following the Closing Date, cause the Company Group to employ each On-Island Expat Employee. Each such employment offer to an Up-tier Employee and the continued terms of employment for each an On-Island Employee and each On-Island Expat Employee shall be for a position at a salary or wage that is no less than the aggregate compensation paid to such employee as of the Closing.

(i)With respect to Up-tier Employees and On-Island Expat Employees, each such employee shall remain an employee of the NuStar Affiliate and costs of employment shall be reimbursed as provided in the Transition Services Agreement; provided, that, should such Up-tier Employee accept an offer from the Purchaser and become an employee of Purchaser or its Affiliate (each, a “Transferred Employee”), such payroll and benefits shall be promptly transitioned to Purchaser or its Affiliate and shall be removed from the scope of the Transition Services Agreement without any duplication of cost to Purchaser and/or its Affiliates (including the Companies). Up-Tier Employees not offered employment by Purchaser will, nonetheless, continue to be employed by the NuStar Affiliate post-Closing and made available to Purchaser to provide services to Purchaser under the Transition Services Agreement for a period no less than sixty (60) days after the thirty (30) day period described in Section 9.2(a) has expired.

(ii)With respect to On-Island Employees, such employee shall remain an employee of the applicable member of the Company Group with locally processed payroll continuing following Closing.

(iii)With respect to all On-Island Expat Employees, such employees shall remain employees of the NuStar Affiliate and payroll and benefits will be processed under and reimbursed as provided in the Transition Services Agreement with such payroll and benefits pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement to be promptly transitioned to Purchaser or its Affiliate and removed from the scope of the Transition Services Agreement without any duplication of cost to Purchaser and/or its Affiliates (including the Companies).

Purchaser further agrees that each Transferred Employee, On-Island Employee and On-Island Expat Employee (collectively, the “Statia Employees”) will be eligible to participate in Purchaser’s employee benefit plans that are generally applicable to Purchaser’s other employees.

(b)If Purchaser takes any action following Closing that independently, and solely by reason thereof, could be construed as a “plant closing,” “relocation,” “employment loss” or “mass layoff” or other similar term under applicable Laws, Purchaser shall be solely responsible for providing any notice required by applicable Law and for making payments, if any, and paying all penalties, and costs, if any, that may result from any failure to provide such notice or failure to comply with such applicable Laws.

(c)With respect to any Plans in which any Statia Employee participates after the Closing, Purchaser shall (or shall cause a member of the Company Group or another of Purchaser’s Affiliates, as applicable, to) use reasonable best efforts to: (i) waive all pre-existing conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to such employees, except to the extent such pre-existing conditions, exclusions or waiting periods are applied under the similar plan in effect immediately prior to the Closing, (ii) provide each such employee with credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid (to the same extent such credit was given for the year under the similar plan in effect immediately prior to the Closing) in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements, (iii) recognize all continuous service of each of the employees with Terminals or each of the employees set forth on Section 9.2 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules (including continuous service with an entity that was previously acquired by such Person), for all purposes (including for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting credit and entitlement to benefits, but excluding benefit accrual under a defined benefit pension plan) under any plan, arrangement, policy, program or agreement in which such employees may be eligible to participate after the Closing; provided, however the foregoing shall not apply to the extent it would result in a duplication of benefits and shall not apply to any equity or equity-based benefits or any benefits provided to Union Employees, which shall continue to be governed by the Collective Labor Agreement, and (iv) Statia Employees will be eligible for vacation, short-term leave entitlement and, to the extent Purchaser or its Affiliates adopts any service recognition program, service award recognition based on years of service set forth in Section 9.2 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules.

(d)Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Terminals, effective as of the occurrence of the Closing, remains bound by the Collective Labor Agreement.

(e)Nothing in this Section 9.2 shall (i) create any third-party beneficiary right in any Person, including any current or former employee, any participant in any Plan or any dependent or beneficiary thereof other than the parties to this Agreement and NuStar (or any wholly owned subsidiary of NuStar who employed Statia Employees prior to Closing), (ii) constitute an amendment to or establishment of any Plan or any other plan, program, policy, agreement or other arrangement covering current or former employees, independent contractors or other service providers of any member of the Company Group or Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, or any employees set forth in Section 9.2 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule or (iii) entitle any current or former employee, independent contractor or other service provider to a term of employment or engagement or to any particular term or condition of employment or engagement.

Section 9.3    Releases.

(a)Effective as of the occurrence of the Closing (notwithstanding the execution and delivery of this Agreement on the Execution Date), each Seller, by executing this Agreement, on such Seller’s own behalf, and on behalf of such Seller’s respective successors, equityholders, Affiliates, and assigns, hereby

irrevocably and unconditionally waives, releases, and forever discharges each member of the Company Group, and each governing person, officer, and manager of each member of the Company Group, and each of their respective Affiliates and their successors and assigns and each of their respective governing persons, officers, and managers thereof, from any and all liabilities or obligations to the releasing Persons and any and all rights and claims a releasing Person has had, now has, or might now have against such Persons to the extent relating to actions, omissions, facts, or circumstances occurring or existing on or prior to the Closing Date, including arising in connection with the negotiation or execution of this Agreement and the transaction hereunder contemplated, the Statia Facility, and the assets of the members of the Company Group, in each case whether absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, or known or unknown, and whether arising under any agreement, instrument, or understanding or otherwise at law or equity, other than any obligation of Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.

(b)Nothing contained in this Section 9.3 is intended to, nor does it: (i) extend to any claims in respect of this Agreement or any of the provisions set forth herein, or (ii) affect any right to indemnification, exculpation or advancement of expenses to which either Seller or any Seller Related Party may be entitled as a result of such Person’s interest in or service as a manager, director, officer, employee, advisor, consultant or other representative of any member of the Company Group and as provided for under this Agreement.

(c)Each Seller hereby agrees that it will not make any claim for indemnification, contribution, or advancement of expenses against Purchaser or any member of the Company Group by reason of the fact that such Seller was, without limitation, a controlling person, director, employee, or representative of the Company Group or was serving as such for another Person at the request of any member of the Company Group (whether such claim is for Damages of any kind or otherwise and whether such claim is pursuant to any Law, Organizational Document, contractual obligation, or otherwise) with respect to any claim brought by Purchaser against any Seller under this Agreement or the facts and circumstances underlying any such claim brought by Purchaser or otherwise relating to this Agreement, any Transaction Document or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 9.4    Transfer Taxes. Purchaser shall be fully responsible for and pay all Transfer Taxes (if any) that may be due and payable in connection with the transfer of the Transferred Interests contemplated by this Agreement, whether before, at, or after Closing.

Section 9.5    Further Assurances. NPH and Purchaser each agree that from time to time after the Closing they will execute and deliver, and cause their respective Affiliates to execute and deliver, such further instruments, and, further, they will take, and cause their respective Affiliates to take, such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

Section 9.6    Post-Closing Access. In connection with any matter relating to any period prior to, or any period ending on, the Closing Date, Purchaser shall, upon the reasonable request and at the expense of Sellers, and subject to reasonable confidentiality protections, permit NPH and any of its representatives access at all reasonable times, during normal business hours, to the Books and Records to enable Sellers to prepare and/or file Tax Returns required of Sellers and/or any of Sellers’ Affiliates or to fulfill any reporting obligations under applicable Law (including Securities and Exchange Commission reporting obligations), if any, or for Sellers to fulfill any post-Closing obligations, if any, hereunder. Purchaser shall not dispose of such Books and Records during the seven-year period beginning with the Closing Date without the consent of NPH, not to be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall not be required to (i) make Books and Records available to Sellers or their representatives or Affiliates in connection with

any dispute or claim between the Purchaser and/or any member of the Company Group, on one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand or (ii) waive any attorney-client privilege or work product protections or other duty of confidentiality. In connection with any damages incurred by Sellers to the Statia Facility resulting from hurricanes in 2017 (the “Hurricane Losses”), Sellers will provide Purchaser with (i) information not previously provided, if any, related to the Hurricane Losses for all periods prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) access to engineering or safety surveys completed by insurers and provided to NuStar not previously provided to Purchaser, if any, related to Hurricane Losses at the Statia Facility.

(a)Purchaser shall prepare and timely file (taking into account all valid extensions), or shall cause to be prepared and timely filed (taking into account all valid extensions), any and all Tax Returns of the Company Group required to be filed after the Closing Date and that relate to a Tax period (or a portion thereof) beginning before or on the Closing Date (each, a “Pre-Closing Tax Return”), and each Pre-Closing Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past custom and practice except as otherwise required by applicable Law or fact. Purchaser shall provide a copy of each income and other material Pre-Closing Tax Return, together will all supporting documentation and workpapers, to Sellers for the Sellers’ review and comment at least 20 days prior to the due date (taking into account all valid extensions) for filing such income and other material Pre-Closing Tax Return.

Purchaser shall cause any Pre-Closing Tax Returns prepared and finalized hereunder to be timely filed. To the extent of the amount of Pre-Closing Taxes as shown on the applicable Pre-Closing Tax Return is in excess of the amount of such Pre-Closing Taxes taken into account in the Purchase Price, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.4, such excess shall be paid to Purchaser at least five (5) days prior to the due date of the applicable Pre-Closing Tax Return by NPH, on behalf of each Seller.

Section 9.9    Reasonable Cooperation. The Sellers will use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with Purchaser in Purchaser’s procurement of the R&W Policy, including providing as promptly as practicable financial, operational, and other information requested by Purchaser or any insurance underwriter or broker related to, without limitation, any member of the Company Group, the business of the Company Group, the Statia Facility, any representation or warranty hereunder made by Sellers in Articles 3 and 4, and any other matter reasonably required by such underwriter or broker to facilitate and enable the underwriting and issuance of the R&W Policy.

Section 9.10    Non-Solicitation. For a period of one year following the Closing Date, the Sellers shall not, and shall not permit any of their Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, hire or solicit any employee of the Company Group or encourage any such employee to leave such employment or hire any such employee who has left such employment, except pursuant to a general solicitation which is not directed specifically to any such employees; provided, that nothing in this Section 9.10 shall prevent the Sellers or any of their Affiliates from hiring (i) any employee whose employment has been terminated by the Company Group or Purchaser, (ii) after 180 days from the date of termination of employment, any employee whose employment has been terminated by the employee, or (iii) an On-Island Ex Pat Employee whose standard term of service as an ex patriate employee has concluded.

The representations and warranties of each Seller and Purchaser shall not survive the Closing, except that claims based on fraud shall survive for the full period of all applicable statutes of limitations plus 90 days.

(b)EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY BE BASED UPON, ARISE OUT OF OR RELATE TO THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING THE EXHIBITS AND SCHEDULES HERETO), ANY CERTIFICATE, INSTRUMENT OR OTHER DOCUMENTS DELIVERED HEREUNDER, OR THE NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION OR PERFORMANCE HEREOF OR THEREOF (INCLUDING ANY ACTION, CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM, THIRD-PARTY CLAIM OR LITIGATION OF ANY KIND BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY MADE IN OR IN CONNECTION

HEREWITH OR THEREWITH) IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 11.3    Remedies. The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the Party seeking the injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief has an adequate remedy of Law. The remedies available to Sellers pursuant to this Section 11.3 shall be in addition to any other remedy to which it is entitled at Law or in equity.

Section 11.4    Modification; Waiver. This Agreement may be modified only by a written instrument executed by the Parties hereto. Any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be waived in writing (subject to applicable Law) at any time on or prior to the Closing Date by the Party entitled to the benefits thereof.

Section 11.5    Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, express or implied, between the Parties hereto and their respective Affiliates, representatives and agents in respect of the subject matter hereof, except that this Agreement does not supersede the Confidentiality Agreement, the terms and conditions of which the Parties hereto expressly reaffirm.

Section 11.6    Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is found to be, by competent authority with jurisdiction, invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties hereto as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible.

Section 11.7    Expenses. Except as expressly provided herein to the contrary, whether or not the transactions contemplated herein shall be consummated, each Party shall pay its own expenses incident to the preparation and performance of this Agreement.

Section 11.9    Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of any Party hereto in the exercise of any right hereunder shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement herein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise thereof, or of any other right.

All notices, requests, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made as follows: (i) if sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, upon receipt; (ii) if sent by reputable overnight air courier (such as DHL or Federal Express), upon receipt; (iii) if sent by email or facsimile transmission, with a copy mailed on the same day in the manner provided in (i) or (ii) above, when transmitted and, in the case of facsimile transmission, when receipt is confirmed; or (iv) if otherwise actually personally delivered, when delivered and shall be delivered as follows:

Section 11.11    Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, however any assignment, by operation of law or otherwise, by a Party hereto shall require the prior written consent of the other Party and any purported assignment or other transfer without such consent shall be void and unenforceable; provided, further, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser may assign any or all of its rights hereunder to one or more of its Affiliates or as a collateral assignment to any provider of debt financing to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates.

Section 11.12    Disclosure Schedules. Any matter disclosed by Sellers in the Seller Disclosure Schedules pursuant to any Section of this Agreement shall only be deemed to have been disclosed by Sellers for purposes of any other Section of this Agreement to which the relevance of such disclosure to such other Section is reasonably apparent on its face. The disclosure of any matter in the Seller Disclosure Schedules hereto shall expressly not be deemed to constitute an admission by Sellers or Purchaser, or to otherwise imply, that any such matter is material for the purposes of this Agreement.

Section 11.13    Timing. If the date specified in this Agreement for giving any notice or taking any action is not a Business Day (or if the period during which any notice is required to be given or any action taken expires on a date that is not a Business Day), then the date for giving such notice or taking such action (and the expiration date of such period during which notice is required to be given or action taken) shall be the next day that is a Business Day.

Section 11.17    Sellers’ Representative.

(a)Appointment; Authority. For purposes of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, NTD hereby irrevocably nominates, constitutes and appoints NPH to act in the name, place and stead of such Seller for purposes of taking any and all actions and making of any decisions required or permitted to be taken by Sellers under or contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, including the exercise of the power to: (i) execute this Agreement, any Transaction Document and any other

agreements, documents and certificates pursuant to such agreements, and take all actions required or permitted to be taken under such agreements; (ii) resolve, agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to this Agreement and any Transaction Document; (iii) receive and forward notices and communications pursuant to this Agreement and any Transaction Document; and (iv) take all other actions necessary, desirable or appropriate in the reasonable judgment of NPH for the accomplishment of the foregoing and all of the other terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement, any Transaction Document and any other agreements, documents and certificates pursuant thereto. NPH hereby accepts its appointment as the representative of NTD for such purposes. All decisions, actions, consents and instructions of NPH shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all Sellers, and NTD shall not have any right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same.

(b)Expenses and Liabilities. Any expenses or Liabilities incurred by the NPH in connection with the performance of its duties as a representative for NTD under this Agreement or any Transaction Document shall not be an obligation of NPH but shall be reimbursed by NTD.

(c)No Liability. NTD agrees to indemnify NPH for, and to hold NPH harmless against, any losses or Liabilities incurred without fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of NPH, arising out of or in connection with NPH’s carrying out its duties under this Section 11.17, including costs and expenses of successfully defending NPH or any agent acting on behalf of NPH against any claim of liability with respect thereto. NPH may consult with counsel of its own choice and will have full and complete authorization and protection for any action taken and suffered by it in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of such counsel.

(d)Reliance. Purchaser and any other third party will be entitled to rely on any and all actions taken by NPH based on this Section 11.17 without any Liability to, or obligation to inquire of, NTD. Purchaser and any such other third party is and will be fully protected in, and shall not have any Liability to NTD as a result of, acting or refraining from acting upon and relying upon any notice, instruction, direction, request, waiver, consent, receipt or other paper or document in writing that Purchaser or such other third party in good faith believes has been signed by NPH.

Section 11.18    Provision Respecting Legal Representation. Purchaser (on its behalf and, from and after the Closing, on behalf of each member of the Company Group) hereby waives, and agrees to cause its Affiliates to waive, any conflicts that may arise in connection with JW representing the Sellers or any Seller Related Party after the Closing as such representation may relate to Purchaser, any member of the Company Group or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Purchaser (on its behalf and, from and after the Closing, on behalf of the Company Group) hereby agrees that, in the event that a dispute arises after the Closing between Purchaser or any member of the Company Group, on the one hand, and Sellers or any Seller Related Party, on the other hand, JW may represent any or all of Sellers or any Seller Related Party in such dispute even though the interests of Sellers or the Seller Related Parties may be directly adverse to Purchaser, the Company Group or any of their respective Affiliates. In addition, all privileged communications by Sellers, any Company Group member or the Seller Related Parties that reasonably related to the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to be privileged communications that belong solely to Sellers and the Seller Related Parties (and not Purchaser or any Company Group member). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon and after the Closing, (i) Sellers and the Seller Related Parties (and not Purchaser, any Company Group member or their respective Affiliates) shall be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to such protected communications, and none of Purchaser, the Company Group members or their respective Affiliates shall be a holder thereof, and (ii) to the extent that the files of JW in respect of such engagement constitute property of the client, only Sellers and the Seller Related Parties (and not Purchaser, the Company Group or their respective Affiliates)

shall hold such property rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and a third party other than a Party, on the other hand, (i) any member of the Company Group may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of such privileged communications to such third party and (ii) NPH, on behalf of itself and NTD, shall not unreasonably withhold consent to a waiver of attorney-client privilege to permit the disclosure of privileged communications to Purchaser or the Company Group in connection with the defense of such dispute.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed on the Execution Date.
