(c)the Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to each Indemnified Party of a release from all Liability in respect of such Third-party Action; and
(d)the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to control (but shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense of), and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to have sole control over, the defense or settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment of any Third-party Action (i) as to which the Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense within a reasonable length of time or (ii) to the extent the Third-party Action seeks an Order or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party which, if successful, would materially adversely affect the business, operations, assets, or financial condition of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall make no settlement, compromise, admission, or acknowledgment that would give rise to Liability on the part of any Indemnifying Party without the prior written consent of such Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
22

(e)The Parties shall extend reasonable cooperation in connection with the defense of any Third-party Action pursuant to this Article VII and, in connection therewith, shall furnish such records, information, and testimony and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials, and appeals as may be reasonably requested.
7.3 Direct Claims. In any case in which an Indemnified Party seeks indemnification hereunder which is not subject to Section 7.2 because no Third-party Action is involved (a “Direct Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of any Indemnified Costs which such Indemnified Party claims are subject to indemnification under the terms hereof. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.4(a), the failure of the Indemnified Party to exercise promptness in such notification shall not amount to a waiver of such claim unless and only to the extent that the resulting delay materially and adversely prejudices the position of the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Indemnified Costs that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Indemnified Party’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such 30-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.
7.4 Limitations. The following provisions of this Section 7.4 shall limit the indemnification obligations hereunder:
(a)The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any Indemnified Costs pursuant to this Article VII unless a written claim for indemnification in accordance with Section 7.2 or Section 7.3 is given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party with respect thereto on or before 5:00 p.m., Nashville, Tennessee time, on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, however, that written claims for indemnification (i) for Indemnified Costs arising out of (x) (A) a breach of any Fundamental Representations or (B) an Excluded Asset, an Excluded Liability, an Assumed Liability or any Pro-Rated Item may be made at any time and (y) a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 4.10 may be made at any time prior to the expiration of its survival pursuant to Section 9.12 and (ii) for Indemnified Costs arising out of a breach of any covenant may be made at any time prior to the performance of such covenant according to its terms.
(b)An Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to pay for any Indemnified Costs under this Article VII until the amount of all such Indemnified Costs exceeds, in the aggregate, $400,000, in which event Indemnifying Party shall pay or be liable for all such Indemnified Costs from the first dollar. The aggregate liability of an Indemnifying Party under this Article VII shall not exceed $8,000,000. The limitations in the previous two sentences shall not apply to Indemnified Costs to the extent such costs arise out of (i) a breach of any Fundamental Representations, (ii) an Assumed Liability, (iii) an Excluded Liability or any Pro-Rated Item or (iv) breach of any covenant or other agreement of the Indemnifying Party under this Agreement.
23

(c)Each Party acknowledges and agrees that, after the Closing Date, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, DKL MS’s and the other Partnership Indemnified Parties’ and Contributor’s and the other Contributor Indemnified Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy with respect to the Indemnified Costs shall be in accordance with, and limited by, the provisions set forth in this Article VII. The Parties further acknowledge and agree that the foregoing is not the remedy for and does not limit the Parties’ remedies for matters covered by the indemnification provisions contained in the Ancillary Documents. Any indemnification obligation of Contributor to the Partnership Indemnified Parties on the one hand, or DKL MS to the Contributor Indemnified Parties on the other hand, pursuant to this Article VII shall be reduced by an amount equal to any indemnification recovery by such Indemnified Parties pursuant to the other Ancillary Documents between the Parties to the extent that such other indemnification recovery arises out of the same event or circumstance giving rise to the indemnification obligation of Contributor or DKL MS, respectively, hereunder.
7.5 Payments. Once an Indemnified Cost is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this Article VII, the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations within 10 Business Days of such agreement or final adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds. The Parties agree that should an Indemnifying Party not make full payment of any such obligations within such 10 Business Day period, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of agreement of the Indemnifying Party or final adjudication to and including the date such payment has been made at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus 2%. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed.
7.6 Tax Related Adjustments. Contributor and DKL MS agree that any payment of Indemnified Costs and any payments pursuant to Section 3.4 made hereunder will be treated by the Parties to the extent allowed by Applicable Law, on their tax returns as an adjustment to the Consideration.
7.7 Effect of Investigation. The representations, warranties, and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate.
ARTICLE VIII
LIMITED GUARANTY
8.1 Limited Guaranty by Delek US. From the Closing until the fourth anniversary of the Closing, Delek US hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Partnership Parties the due and punctual payment of all payment obligations of Contributor insofar as such payment obligations consist of indemnification payments required to be made by Contributor under Article VII. In the case of the failure of Contributor to make any such payment as and when due, Delek US hereby agrees to make such payment or cause such payment to be made, promptly upon written demand by any Partnership Party to Delek US, but any delay in providing such notice shall not under any circumstances reduce the liability of Delek US or operate as a waiver of the Partnership Parties’ right to demand payment, to the extent such demand in made prior to the fourth anniversary of the Closing.

9.3 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be valid and effective under Applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance will be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision hereof in accordance with this Section 9.3, and the Parties will negotiate in good faith with a view to substitute for such provision a suitable and equitable solution in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.
9.4 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of Texas, excluding any conflicts-of-law rule or principle that might refer the construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the laws of another state.
9.5 Arbitration Provision. Any and all Disputes shall be resolved through the use of binding arbitration using three arbitrators, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, as supplemented to the extent necessary to determine any procedural appeal questions by the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code). If there is any inconsistency between this Section 9.5 and the Commercial Arbitration Rules or the Federal Arbitration Act, the terms of this Section 9.5 will control the rights and obligations of the Parties. Arbitration must be initiated within the time limits set forth in this Agreement, or if no such limits apply, then within a reasonable time or the time period allowed by the applicable statute of limitations. Arbitration may be initiated by а Party (“Claimant”) serving written notice on the other Party (“Respondent”) that the Claimant elects to refer the Dispute to binding arbitration. Claimant’s notice initiating binding arbitration must identify the arbitrator Claimant has appointed. The Respondent shall respond to Claimant within 30 days after receipt of Claimant’s notice, identifying the arbitrator Respondent has appointed. If the Respondent fails for any reason to name an arbitrator within the 30-day period, Claimant shall petition the American Arbitration Association for appointment of an arbitrator for Respondent’s account. The two arbitrators so chosen shall select а third arbitrator within 30 days after the second arbitrator has been appointed. The Claimant will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by or for it, and the Respondent will pay the compensation and expenses of the arbitrator named by or for it. The costs of petitioning for the appointment of an arbitrator, if any, shall be paid by Respondent. The Claimant and Respondent will each pay one-half of the compensation and expenses of the third arbitrator. All arbitrators must (a) be neutral parties who have never been officers, directors or employees of Contributor, DKL MS or any of their respective Affiliates and (b) have not less than seven years’ experience of in the energy industry. The hearing will be conducted in Houston, Texas and commence within 30 days after the
26

selection of the third arbitrator. Contributor, DKL MS and the arbitrators shall proceed diligently and in good faith in order that the award may be made as promptly as possible. Except as provided in the Federal Arbitration Act, the decision of the arbitrators will be binding on and non-appealable by the Parties. The arbitrators shall have no right to grant or award Special Damages in favor of Contributor, on the one hand (except to the extent such Special Damages (i) are awarded to a third-party or (ii) are the result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of DKL MS), or DKL MS, on the other hand (except to the extent such Special Damages (x) are awarded to a third-party, or (y) are the result of the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Contributor).
9.6 Confidentiality.
(a)Obligations. Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to retain the other Party’s Confidential Information in confidence and not disclose the same to any third party nor use the same, except as authorized by the disclosing Party in writing or as expressly permitted in this Section 9.6. Each Party further agrees to take the same care with the other Party’s Confidential Information as it does with its own, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care.
(b)Required Disclosure. Notwithstanding Section 9.6(a) above, if the receiving Party becomes legally compelled to disclose the Confidential Information by a Governmental Authority or Applicable Law, including the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or is required to disclose pursuant to the rules and regulations of any national securities exchange upon which the receiving Party or its parent entity is listed, any of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, the receiving Party shall promptly advise the disclosing Party of such requirement to disclose Confidential Information as soon as the receiving Party becomes aware that such a requirement to disclose might become effective, in order that, where possible, the disclosing Party may seek a protective order or such other remedy as the disclosing Party may consider appropriate in the circumstances. The receiving Party shall disclose only that portion of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information that it is required to disclose and shall cooperate with the disclosing Party in allowing the disclosing Party to obtain such protective order or other relief.
(c)Return of Information. Upon written request by the disclosing Party, all of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in whatever form shall be returned to the disclosing Party upon termination of this Agreement or destroyed with destruction certified by the receiving Party, without the receiving Party retaining copies thereof except that one copy of all such Confidential Information may be retained by a Party’s legal department solely to the extent that such Party is required to keep a copy of such Confidential Information pursuant to Applicable Law, and the receiving Party shall be entitled to retain any Confidential Information in the electronic form or stored on automatic computer back-up archiving systems during the period such backup or archived materials are retained under such Party’s customary procedures and policies; provided, however, that any Confidential Information retained by the receiving Party shall be maintained subject to confidentiality pursuant to the terms of this Section 9.6, and such archived or back-up Confidential Information shall not be accessed except as required by Applicable Law.
(d)Receiving Party Personnel. The receiving Party will limit access to the Confidential Information of the disclosing Party to those of its employees, attorneys and contractors that have a need to know such information in order for the receiving Party to exercise or perform its rights and obligations under this Agreement (the “Receiving Party Personnel”). The Receiving Party Personnel who have access to any Confidential Information of the disclosing Party will be made aware of the confidentiality provision of this Agreement and will be required to abide by the terms thereof; provided, however, that the receiving party will remain
27

liable for any unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information by Receiving Party Personnel. Any third party contractors that are given access to Confidential Information of a disclosing Party pursuant to the terms hereof shall be required to sign a written agreement pursuant to which such Receiving Party Personnel agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, which written agreement will expressly state that it is enforceable against such Receiving Party Personnel by the disclosing Party.
(e)Survival. The obligation of confidentiality under this Section 9.6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of two years.
9.7 Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each Party hereto and their successors and permitted assigns, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other Person (other than the Indemnified Parties with respect to Article VII) any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.
9.8 Assignment of Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests, or obligations hereunder may be assigned by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Party hereto.
9.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts each of which, when so executed and delivered (including by facsimile or portable document format (pdf)), will be deemed original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.
9.10 Integration. This Agreement, the schedules hereto and the Ancillary Documents supersede any previous understandings or agreements among the Parties, whether oral or written, with respect to their subject matters.

9.11 Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may be terminated, amended or modified only by a written instrument executed by the Parties and approved by the Conflicts Committee. Any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be waived in writing at any time by the Party entitled to the benefits thereof. No waiver of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or any breach thereof, will be effective unless in writing signed by a duly authorized individual on behalf of the Party against which the waiver is sought to be enforced. No waiver of any term or condition or of any breach of this Agreement will be deemed or will constitute a waiver of any other term or condition or of any later breach (whether or not similar), nor will such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.
9.12 Survival of Representations and Warranties and Covenants. (a) The Fundamental Representations shall survive the Closing indefinitely, (b) the representations and warranties in Section 4.10 shall survive the Closing until the date that is 60 days after the applicable statute of limitations with respect thereto (taking into account any extension or waiver thereof), (c) all other representations and warranties in this Agreement shall survive the Closing until 5:00 p.m., Nashville, Tennessee time, on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, and (d) the covenants set forth in this Agreement shall survive until fully performed in accordance with their terms; provided, however, that any representation and warranty that is the subject of a claim for
