On July 27, 2022 (the “Signing Date”), PBF Energy Inc., a Delaware corporation (“PBF Energy”), PBF Energy Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and subsidiary of PBF Energy (“PBF LLC”), PBFX Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of PBF LLC (“PBFX Holdings”), Riverlands Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of PBF LLC (“Merger Sub”), PBF Logistics LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“PBFX”), and PBF Logistics GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the general partner of PBFX (the “PBFX GP”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into PBFX (the “Merger”), with PBFX surviving as a subsidiary of PBF Energy, owned 99% by PBF LLC and 1% by PBFX Holdings.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding common unit representing limited partner interests in PBFX (the “Common Units”) that is held immediately before the closing of the Merger by a holder of Common Units other than PBF Energy, PBF LLC, PBFX Holdings, PBFX or PBFX GP (such units, the “Public Common Units,” and such holders of Public Common Units, the “Public Common Unitholders”) will be converted into the right to receive: (i) 0.270 of a share of PBF Energy Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Parent Common Stock”), and (ii) $9.25 in cash, without interest. Cash will be paid in lieu of any issuance of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock. The Common Units indirectly held by PBF Energy and the General Partner Interest (as defined in PBFX’s Third Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated as of February 28, 2019 (the “Partnership Agreement”)) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger shall be unaffected by the Merger and shall remain outstanding.

The Board of Directors of PBF Energy and the Managing Member of PBF LLC have unanimously approved the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger and, in the case of PBF Energy, the issuance of Parent Common Stock in connection with the Merger. The approval of the stockholders of PBF Energy will not be required in order to complete the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

The Conflicts Committee (the “Conflicts Committee”) (which consists of the three members of the Board of Directors of PBFX GP (the “GP Board”) who are independent under PBFX’s governance guidelines and the listing standards of the NYSE and who are not also executive officers or members of the PBF Energy board) of the GP Board in good faith, unanimously resolved (i) that the Merger Agreement and the Support Agreement (as defined below) and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and the Support Agreement, are fair and reasonable to, and in the best interests of, the Public Common Unitholders and, assuming PBF Energy approves the Merger, PBFX, (ii) to approve the Merger Agreement and the Support Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and the Support Agreement (the foregoing constituting “Special Approval” as defined in the Partnership Agreement), (iii) to recommend that the GP Board approve (x) the Merger Agreement and the Support Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and the Support Agreement, and (y) the execution, delivery and performance of the Merger Agreement and the Support Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, and (iv) to recommend to the GP Board that the GP Board (x) resolve to direct that the Merger Agreement be submitted to a vote of the holders of Common Units, and (y) recommend approval of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger, by the holders of Common Units.

The GP Board, acting upon the approval and recommendation of the Conflicts Committee, unanimously (i) approved the Merger Agreement and the Support Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger, and the execution, delivery and performance of the Merger Agreement and the Support Agreement, (ii) approved the submission of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger, to a vote of the holders of Common Units, and (iii) determined to recommend approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger, by the holders of Common Units.

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, PBF Energy and PBF LLC, as the record and beneficial owner of 29,953,631 Common Units as of the date thereof, entered into a Voting and Support Agreement, dated as of the Signing Date, with PBFX (the “Support Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, PBF Energy agrees to cause PBF LLC, in its capacity as a limited partner of PBFX, to vote its Common Units in favor of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger.

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties from the parties, and each party has agreed to customary covenants, including, among others, covenants relating to (i) with respect to PBF Energy, PBFX and PBFX GP, the conduct of business during the interim period between the execution of the Merger Agreement and the effective time of the Merger and (ii) the obligation to use reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger to be consummated.

Completion of the Merger is subject to certain customary conditions, including, among others: (i) there being no law, injunction, judgment or ruling prohibiting consummation of the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement or making the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby illegal; (ii) subject to specified materiality standards, the accuracy of certain representations and warranties of the parties as of the date of execution of the Merger Agreement and as of the closing date; (iii) compliance by the parties in all material respects with their covenants and obligations under the Merger Agreement; and (iv) approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger, by a majority of the Common Units (inclusive of the Common Units owned by PBF LLC). Additionally, in order to complete the Merger, PBF Energy and PBF LLC will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) a Registration Statement on Form S-4, and the parties will file with the SEC other relevant documents, including a proxy statement and Schedule 13E-3. The SEC may review these documents and any review by the SEC may affect the timing of the completion of the Merger.

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both PBF Energy and PBFX, including, among others, (i) by PBF Energy or PBFX, if the Merger is not consummated by March 31, 2023, and (ii) by PBF Energy or PBFX, if the GP Board or the Conflicts Committee take certain actions with respect to its recommendation of the Merger prior to the partnership unitholder meeting. In the event of a termination as a result of actions with respect to the GP Board or Conflicts Committee recommendation, PBFX shall be obligated to pay PBF Energy a termination fee of $5 million. In the event of certain other terminations, a party will be obligated to pay the other party’s expenses subject to a cap of $10 million.

The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are to occur on the second business day after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Merger provided in the Merger Agreement (other than the conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the closing of the Merger).

14

(d)    Certificates. As of the Effective Time, all Common Units converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.1(a) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented any such Common Units (a “Certificate”) or non-certificated Common Units represented in book-entry form immediately prior to the Effective Time (“Book-Entry Units”) shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration, any dividends or other distributions to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.2(g) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.2(h), in each case to be issued or paid in consideration therefor upon surrender of such Certificate or Book-Entry Unit in accordance with Section 3.2(c), without interest.

(b)    Deposit.

Each Common Unitholder whose Common Units were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration into which such Common Units have been converted pursuant to Section 3.1(a) in respect of Common Units represented by a Certificate or Book-Entry Units, any cash in lieu of fractional shares which the holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 3.2(h), and any dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 3.2(g) upon: (i) surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof pursuant to Section 3.2(i) with respect to certificated Common Units), or (ii) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of Book-Entry Units; in each case, together with a duly completed and validly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be requested by the Exchange Agent. No interest shall be paid or accrued upon the surrender or transfer of any Certificate or Book-Entry Unit.

If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be registered in the name of a Person other than the Person in whose name the applicable surrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Unit is registered, it shall be a condition to the registration thereof that the surrendered Certificate, if applicable, shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such delivery of the Merger Consideration shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other similar Taxes required as a result of such registration in the name of a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate, or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

16

(e)    No Further Transfers. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration on Partnership’s books of any transfers of Common Units converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Units representing Common Units converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Common Units, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or by applicable Law. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Units are presented to the Exchange Agent or Parent, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the consideration provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article III.

(f)    Investment of Exchange Fund; Termination of Exchange Fund. Until disbursed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the cash in the Exchange Fund will be invested by the Exchange Agent, as directed by Parent. No losses with respect to any investments of the Exchange Fund will affect the amounts payable to the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Units. Any income from investment of the Exchange Fund will be payable to Parent on demand. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the Common Unitholders converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration twelve (12) months after the Effective Time shall be returned to Parent, upon demand, and any such holder who has not exchanged his, her or its Common Units for the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 3.2 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to Parent for delivery of the Merger Consideration, the payment of cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 3.2(h) and the payment of any dividends and other distributions pursuant to Section 3.2(g) in respect of such holder’s Common Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent, Merger Sub, HoldCo, Partnership and Partnership GP shall not be liable to any Common Unitholder for any Merger Consideration or other amount duly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws. Any Merger Consideration remaining unclaimed by Common Unitholders immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Parent, free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(g)    Dividends and Distributions. No dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Shares issued in the Merger shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificates or Book-Entry Units until such Certificates or Book-Entry Units are surrendered as provided in this Section 3.2. Following such surrender, subject to the effect of escheat, Tax or other applicable Law, there shall be paid, without interest, to the record holder of the Parent Shares, if any, issued in exchange therefor (i) at the time of such surrender, all dividends and other distributions payable in respect of any such Parent Shares with a record date after the Effective Time and a payment date on or prior to the date of such surrender and not previously paid and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the dividends or other distributions payable with respect to such Parent Shares with a record date after the Effective Time but with a payment date subsequent to such surrender. For purposes of dividends or other distributions in respect of Parent Shares, all Parent Shares to be issued pursuant to the Merger shall be entitled to

17

dividends pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence as if issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time. To the extent applicable, each Public Common Unit immediately prior to the Effective Time shall have continued rights to receive any distribution, without interest, with respect to such Common Units with a record date occurring prior to the Effective Time that may have been declared by Partnership GP or made by Partnership with respect to such Public Common Units in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement and this Agreement, as applicable, and that remain unpaid as of the Effective Time. Any distributions by Partnership are not part of the Merger Consideration and shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to such holders or former Common Unitholders, as applicable.

(h)    No Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrips representing fractions of a Parent Share will be issued upon the surrender of Common Units outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time in accordance with Section 3.2(c), and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to have any rights as a holder of any Parent Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Common Unitholder whose Common Units were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a Parent Share (after taking into account all Common Units exchanged by such holder) will receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest and rounded up to the nearest whole cent) in an amount equal to the product of (i) the Average Closing Price as of the Closing Date and (ii) the fraction of a Parent Share that such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to this Article III. As promptly as practicable after the determination of the amount of cash, if any, to be paid to holders of fractional interest, Parent shall, upon notification of such amounts from the Exchange Agent, cause the Exchange Agent to forward payments to such holders of fractional interests subject to an in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The parties acknowledge that payment of such cash consideration in lieu of issuing fractional Parent Shares was not separately bargained-for consideration but merely represents a mechanical rounding off for purposes of avoiding the expense and inconvenience to Parent that would otherwise be caused by the issuance of fractional Parent Shares.

(i)    Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as Parent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the Common Units represented by such Certificate as contemplated by this Article III and pay cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 3.2(h) and any dividends and other distributions pursuant to Section 3.2(g).

(j)    Withholding Rights. Parent, PBF LLC, Merger Sub, HoldCo, the Surviving Entity and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, without duplication, such amounts, which may include shares of Parent Common Stock, as Parent, PBF LLC, Merger Sub, HoldCo, the Surviving Entity or the Exchange Agent reasonably deems to be required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the

18

extent that amounts are so withheld or paid over to or deposited with the relevant Governmental Authority by Parent, PBF LLC, Merger Sub, HoldCo, the Surviving Entity or the Exchange Agent, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made by Parent, PBF LLC, Merger Sub, HoldCo, the Surviving Entity or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be.

(k)    Stock Adjustment. If the aggregate number of Parent Shares to be issued in connection with the Merger would exceed nineteen and nine-tenths percent (19.9%) of the issued and outstanding Parent Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Stock Threshold”), (A) the Exchange Ratio will be reduced to the minimum extent necessary (rounded down to the nearest one-thousandth) such that the aggregate number of Parent Shares to be issued in the Merger does not exceed the Stock Threshold and (B) the Cash Consideration for all purposes under this Agreement will be increased on a per-share basis by an amount equal to $31.14, multiplied by the different between the initial Exchange Ratio and the Exchange Ratio as determined in accordance with this Section 3.2(k) (rounded down to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent).

Section 3.3    Post-Effective Amendments. As soon as practicable following the Effective Time, Partnership shall file a post-effective amendment to the Form S-8 registration statements filed by Partnership on May 15, 2014 and July 31, 2019 deregistering all Common Units thereunder.

Section 3.4    Adjustments. Notwithstanding any provision of this Article III to the contrary, if between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, whether or not permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the number of outstanding Common Units or Parent Shares shall be changed into a different number of units or shares or a different class or series by reason of any dividend or distribution payable in partnership interests, voting securities, equity interests or Rights, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, split-up, unit or share distribution, combination, merger, consolidation, reorganization, exchange of units or shares or other similar transaction, or any such transaction shall be authorized, declared or agreed upon with a record date at or prior to the Effective Time, then the Merger Consideration and any other similar dependent item, as the case may be, shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect fully the effect of such transaction and to provide the Common Unitholders the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 3.4 shall be deemed to permit or authorize any party hereto to affect any such change that it is not otherwise authorized or permitted to undertake pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 3.5    No Dissenters’ Rights. No dissenters’ or appraisal rights shall be available with respect to the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 3.6    Treatment of Partnership Phantom Unit Awards.

(a)    The GP Board shall take the required actions necessary under the Partnership LTIP and the outstanding phantom unit award agreements (the “Partnership Phantom Unit Awards”) to (i) cause each unvested Partnership Phantom Unit that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, to immediately prior to the Effective Time, without any action on the part of Parent or the holder of such Partnership Phantom Units, automatically

19

become fully vested, and (ii) pursuant to Section 2 of each Partnership Phantom Unit Award, to elect, in lieu of the delivery of one Common Unit for each Partnership Phantom Unit, to pay to the holder of each Partnership Phantom Unit an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Partnership LTIP) of one Common Unit. Any accrued but unpaid DERs recorded in the DER Account shall be paid to the appropriate holder of the corresponding Partnership Phantom Unit Award at Closing. Payment in respect of Phantom Units Awards, including DERs will be subject to applicable withholding described in Section 10 of the Partnership Phantom Unit Award.

(b)    Prior to the Effective Time, Partnership and Partnership GP shall take all action necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 3.6. Partnership and Partnership GP shall ensure that, as of immediately following the Effective Time, no holder of a Partnership Phantom Unit Award or participant in the Partnership LTIP shall have any Rights thereunder to acquire, or other rights in respect of, the equity of Partnership, the Surviving Entity or any of the Subsidiaries thereof.

Section 6.3    Partnership Adverse Recommendation Change.

(a)    Except as permitted by this Section 6.3, Partnership and Partnership GP, acting through the GP Board or the GP Conflicts Committee or otherwise, shall not, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries and the foregoing shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause their respective directors, officers, employees, investment bankers, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants, agents and other representatives (collectively, “Representatives”) not to, directly or indirectly (i) withdraw, modify or qualify, or propose publicly to withdraw, modify or qualify, in a manner adverse to Parent, the Partnership Board Recommendation or (ii) fail to include the Partnership Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement (the taking of any such action being referred to as a “Partnership Adverse Recommendation Change”). Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that any violation of the foregoing restrictions by Partnership’s or Partnership GP’s Representatives, other than any violation caused by or at the direction of Parent, shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 6.3 by Partnership and Partnership GP.

44

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at any time prior to obtaining the Partnership Unitholder Approval, and subject to compliance in all material respects with this Section 6.3(b), the GP Board or the GP Conflicts Committee may (x) make a Partnership Adverse Recommendation Change or (y) terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(ii), in each case:

(ii)    if the GP Board or the GP Conflicts Committee, as applicable, has provided prior written notice to Parent specifying in reasonable detail the material events giving rise to the Intervening Event at least three (3) days in advance of its intention to take such action with respect to a Partnership Adverse Recommendation Change or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(ii), as the case may be, unless at the time such notice is otherwise required to be given there are less than three (3) days prior to the Partnership Unitholder Meeting, in which case the GP Board or the GP Conflicts Committee, as applicable, shall provide as much notice as is practicable (the period inclusive of all such days, the “Partnership Notice Period”); and

(iii)    if, during the Partnership Notice Period, the GP Board or the GP Conflicts Committee, as applicable, has negotiated, and has used its reasonable best efforts to cause its financial advisors and outside legal counsel to negotiate, with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that the failure to effect such Partnership Adverse Recommendation Change or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(ii), as the case may be, would not be inconsistent with its duties under the Partnership Agreement and applicable Law; provided, however, that the GP Board or the GP Conflicts Committee, as applicable, shall take into account all changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Parent in determining whether the failure to effect such Partnership Adverse Recommendation Change or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(ii), as the case may be, would not be inconsistent with its duties under the Partnership Agreement and applicable Law.

Section 6.4    Reasonable Best Efforts.

(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Parent Entities, on the one hand, and each of Partnership and Partnership GP, on the other hand, shall cooperate with the other and use and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to use its reasonable best efforts to (i) take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate actions, and do, or cause to be done, all things, necessary, proper or advisable to cause the conditions to the Closing to be satisfied as promptly as practicable (and in any event no later than the Outside Date), including, for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of Parent until the Effective Time or the termination of

45

this Agreement, causing to be voted all Common Units beneficially owned by Parent in favor of the Merger at the Partnership Unitholder Meeting pursuant to the Support Agreement and to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including preparing and filing as promptly as practicable all documentation to effect all necessary filings, notifications, notices, petitions, statements, registrations, submissions of information, applications and other documents (including any required or recommended filings under applicable Antitrust Laws), (ii) obtain promptly (and in any event no later than the Outside Date) all approvals, consents, waivers, clearances, expirations or terminations of waiting periods, registrations, permits, authorizations and other confirmations from any Governmental Authority or third party necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (iii) defend any Proceedings challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or seek to have lifted or rescinded any injunction or restraining order or other order adversely affecting the ability of the parties to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b)    In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each party hereto (including by their respective Subsidiaries) agrees to make an appropriate filing (if required by applicable Law) of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable and in any event within five (5) Business Days after the date of this Agreement (unless a later date is mutually agreed to by the parties hereto) and to supply as promptly as practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested by any Governmental Authority pursuant to the HSR Act or any other applicable Antitrust Law and use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken (including by their respective Subsidiaries), all other actions consistent with this Section 6.4 necessary to cause the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act as promptly as practicable (and in any event no later than the Outside Date).

(c)    Each of the parties hereto shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, use its reasonable best efforts to (i) cooperate in all respects with each other party in connection with any filing or submission with a Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, including by providing the other party a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon, and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry by or before a Governmental Authority relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, including any Proceeding initiated by a private Person, and (ii) promptly inform the other party of (and supply to the other party) any written communication received by such party from, or given by such party to, the Federal Trade Commission, the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice, or any other Governmental Authority and any material written communication received or given in connection with any Proceeding by a private Person, in each case regarding any of the transactions contemplated hereby. The parties shall take reasonable efforts to share information protected from disclosure under the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine, joint defense privilege or any other privilege pursuant to this Section 6.4 in a manner so as to preserve the applicable privilege.

Section 6.5    Public Announcements. The initial press release with respect to the execution of this Agreement shall be a joint press release to be reasonably agreed upon by Parent and Partnership. Thereafter, neither Parent nor the Partnership shall issue or cause the

46

publication of any press release or other public announcement (to the extent not previously issued or made in accordance with this Agreement) with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the prior consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except as may be required by applicable Laws or by any applicable listing agreement with the NYSE, as applicable, as determined in the good faith judgment of the party proposing to make such release (in which case such party shall not issue or cause the publication of such press release or other public announcement without prior consultation with the other party); provided, however, that each party and their respective Affiliates may make statements that are consistent with statements made in previous press releases, public disclosures or public statements made by Parent or the Partnership in compliance with this Section 6.5.

Section 6.6    Access to Information; Confidentiality. Upon reasonable advance notice and subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, each party hereto shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to afford to the other party and its Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours (and, with respect to books and records, the right to copy) to all of its and such Subsidiaries’ properties, commitments, books, Contracts, records and correspondence (in each case, whether in physical or electronic form), officers, employees, accountants, counsel, financial advisors and other Representatives, in each case for integration and operational planning related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that such access shall be provided on a basis that minimizes the disruption to the operations of the requested party and its Representatives. Subject to applicable Laws, from the Execution Date until the Effective Time, Parent and Partnership shall furnish promptly to the other (i) a copy of each report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed, published, announced or received by it in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement during such period pursuant to the requirements of federal, state or foreign Laws (including pursuant to the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules of any Governmental Authority thereunder), as applicable (other than documents which such party is not permitted to disclose under applicable Laws) (which furnishing will be deemed to have occurred in the case of any document filed with or furnished to the SEC without further action on the part of the furnishing party) and (ii) all information concerning Parent’s or Partnership’s business, properties and personnel as the other party may reasonably request, including all information relating to environmental matters. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall have no obligation to disclose or provide access to any information the disclosure of which Parent has concluded may jeopardize any privilege available to Parent or any of its Affiliates relating to such information or would be in violation of a confidentiality obligation binding on Parent or any of its Affiliates. Except for disclosures permitted by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, dated as of July 6, 2022 between Parent and Partnership GP (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Confidentiality Agreement”), Partnership shall hold information received from Parent pursuant to this Section 6.6 in confidence in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement.

Section 6.7    Indemnification and Insurance.

(a)    From and after the Effective Time, solely to the extent that Partnership or Partnership GP or any applicable Subsidiary thereof would be permitted to indemnify an Indemnified Person immediately prior to the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Entity jointly and severally agree to (i) indemnify and hold harmless all Indemnified

47

Persons to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law against any reasonable costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other reasonable costs, expenses and obligations (including experts’ fees, travel expenses, court costs, retainers, transcript fees, duplicating, printing and binding costs, as well as telecommunications, postage and courier charges) paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in or participating in (including on appeal), or preparing to investigate, defend, be a witness in or participate in, any Proceeding, including any Proceeding relating to a claim for indemnification or advancement brought by an Indemnified Person), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of any thereof) in connection with any actual or threatened Proceeding, and, upon receipt by Parent of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person to repay such amount if it shall be determined in a final and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified, provide advancement of expenses with respect to each of the foregoing to, and (ii) honor the provisions regarding elimination of liability of officers and directors, indemnification of officers and directors and advancement of expenses contained in the Organizational Documents of Partnership and Partnership GP immediately prior to the Effective Time, and ensure that the Organizational Documents of the Partnership and Partnership GP or any of their respective successors or assigns, if applicable, shall, for a period of six years following the Effective Time, contain provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation of present and former directors, officers and employees of Partnership and Partnership GP than as set forth in such Organizational Documents as of the Execution Date. Any right of an Indemnified Person pursuant to this Section 6.7(a) shall not be amended, repealed, terminated or otherwise modified at any time in a manner that would adversely affect the rights of such Indemnified Person as provided herein, and shall be enforceable by such Indemnified Person and their respective heirs and Representatives against Parent and Partnership GP and their respective successors and assigns.

(b)    Parent shall, prior to the Effective Time, purchase a “tail policy” under Partnership’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies, on terms and conditions providing substantially equivalent benefits as Partnership’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies, to provide coverage for a period of six (6) years from the Effective time with respect to acts or omissions occurring or alleged to have occurred prior to the Effective Time that were committed or alleged to have been committed by Indemnified Persons in their capacity as such.

(c)    The rights of any Indemnified Person under this Section 6.7 shall be in addition to any other rights such Indemnified Person may have under the Organizational Documents of Partnership and Partnership GP, any indemnification agreements, or the DLLCA and DRULPA. The provisions of this Section 6.7 shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for a period of six (6) years and are expressly intended to benefit each of the Indemnified Persons and their respective heirs and Representatives; provided, however, that in the event that any claim or claims for indemnification or advancement set forth in this Section 6.7 are asserted or made within such six (6)-year period, all rights to indemnification and advancement in respect of any such claim or claims shall continue until disposition of all such claims. If Parent and/or Partnership GP, or any

48

of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person, or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of their businesses or assets to any other Person, then, in each such case, to the extent necessary, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent and/or Partnership GP shall assume the obligations of Parent and Partnership GP set forth in this Section 6.7.

Section 6.8    Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.2 and Section 8.3, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement including all legal, accounting, financial advisory, consulting and all other fees and expenses of third parties incurred by a party in connection with the negotiation and effectuation of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, shall be the obligation of the respective party incurring such fees and expenses, except Parent and Partnership shall each bear and pay one half of the expenses incurred in connection with the filing, printing and mailing of the Registration Statement, the Schedule 13E-3 and the Proxy Statement.

Section 6.9    Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent and Partnership shall take all such steps as may be required (to the extent permitted under applicable Law) to cause any dispositions of Common Units (including derivative securities with respect to Common Units) or acquisitions of Parent Common Stock (including derivative securities with respect to Parent Common Stock) resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to Partnership, or will become subject to such reporting requirements with respect to Parent, to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Section 6.10    Listing; Delisting and Deregistration.

(a)    Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement to be approved for listing (subject, if applicable, to notice of issuance) for trading on the NYSE prior to the Closing.

(b)    The Partnership will cooperate and use its reasonable best efforts to cause the delisting of Common Units from the NYSE and the deregistration of such securities under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable following the Closing in compliance with applicable Law.

Section 6.11    Dividends and Distributions. After the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, each of Parent and Partnership shall coordinate with the other regarding the declaration of any dividends or distributions in respect of Parent Common Stock and Common Units and the record dates and payment dates relating thereto, it being the intention of the parties that Common Unitholders shall not receive, for any quarter, distributions both in respect of Common Units and also dividends in respect of Parent Common Stock that they receive in exchange therefor in the Merger, but that they shall receive for any such quarter either: (a) only distributions in respect of Partnership Interests or (b) only dividends in respect of Parent Common Stock that they receive in exchange therefor in the Merger. During the term of this Agreement, in accordance with past practice, Partnership GP shall consider and, if appropriate

49

for Partnership, shall approve and declare, and cause Partnership to pay, a cash distribution to Common Unitholders (including the Partnership Unaffiliated Unitholders) in accordance with past practice for each completed calendar quarter ending prior to the Closing Date in an amount equal to not less than the current per Common Unit distribution rate of $0.30 per Common Unit per completed calendar quarter to the extent a distribution is declared and the Closing does not occur prior to the applicable record date established by the GP Board with respect to such quarterly distribution; provided, however, that neither Partnership GP nor Partnership shall be required to take any action pursuant to this Section 6.11 that would violate applicable Law, the Organizational Documents of Partnership or any Contract to which Partnership GP or Partnership is a party as of the Execution Date.

Section 6.12    GP Conflicts Committee. Prior to the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement, the Parent Entities shall not and they shall not permit any of their Subsidiaries to, take any action intended to cause Partnership GP to, without the consent of a majority of the then existing members of the GP Conflicts Committee, eliminate the GP Conflicts Committee, revoke or diminish the authority of the GP Conflicts Committee or remove or cause the removal of any director of Partnership GP that is a member of the GP Conflicts Committee either as a director or as a member of such committee. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6.12 shall not apply to the filling, in accordance with the provisions of the Partnership GP LLC Agreement, of any vacancies caused by the resignation, death or incapacity of any such director or any removal of a director for cause.

Section 6.13    Performance by Partnership GP. Partnership GP shall cause Partnership and its Subsidiaries to comply with the provisions of this Agreement and the Support Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that actions or inactions by Partnership and Partnership GP and their respective Subsidiaries shall not be deemed to be breaches or violations or failures to perform by Parent or its Subsidiaries of any of the provisions of this Agreement unless such action or inaction was or was not taken at the direction of or on the recommendation of, or with respect to Partnership and Partnership GP and their respective Subsidiaries and subject to Section 6.2(b), with the consent of, Parent.

Section 6.14    Tax Treatment. For United States federal income tax purposes (and for purposes of any applicable state, local or foreign Tax that follows the United States federal income tax treatment), the parties agree to treat the Merger as a taxable sale of the Public Common Units by the holders of such Public Common Units in exchange for the Merger Consideration. The parties will prepare and file all Tax Returns consistent with the foregoing and will not take any inconsistent position on any Tax Return, or during the course of any Proceeding with respect to Taxes, except as otherwise required by applicable Law following a final determination by a court of competent jurisdiction or other administrative settlement with or final administrative decision by the relevant Governmental Authority.

Section 6.15    Takeover Statutes. If any Takeover Statute shall become applicable to this Agreement, the Merger, the Parent Stock Issuance or the other transactions contemplated hereby or related thereto, Parent, the Parent Board, Partnership GP, the GP Board and the GP Conflicts Committee shall grant such approvals and shall use reasonable best efforts to take such actions so that the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger and the Parent Stock Issuance, may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms

50

contemplated hereby and otherwise use reasonable best efforts to eliminate or minimize the effects of such Takeover Statute on the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger and the Parent Stock Issuance.

Section 6.16    Securityholder Litigation. Partnership and Partnership GP shall give Parent prompt notice and the opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any securityholder litigation against Partnership and Partnership GP and/or their directors (as applicable) relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and no such settlement shall be agreed to without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

(i) The representations and warranties of Parent contained in Section 5.1(a), Section 5.2, Section 5.3(a) and Section 5.6(a) shall be true and correct in all respects, in each case both when made and at and as of the Closing Date, as if made at and as of such time (except to the extent expressly made as of an earlier date, in which case as of such date); and (ii) all other representations and warranties of Parent set forth herein shall be true and correct both when made and at and as of the Closing Date, as if made at and as of such time (except to the extent expressly made as of an earlier date, in which case as of such date), except, in the case of this clause (ii), where the failure of such representations and warranties to be so true and correct (except with respect to Section 5.5 and Section 5.9, without giving effect to any limitation as to “materiality” or “Parent Material Adverse Effect” set forth in any individual such representation or warranty) does not have, and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Parent Material Adverse Effect. Partnership shall have received a certificate signed on behalf of Parent by an executive officer of Parent to such effect.

52

(b)    Performance of Obligations of the Parent Entities. Each of the Parent Entities shall have performed in all material respects all obligations required to be performed by it under this Agreement at or prior to the Closing Date. Partnership shall have received a certificate signed on behalf of Parent by an executive officer of Parent to such effect.

Section 7.4    Frustration of Closing Conditions.

(a)    Neither Partnership nor Partnership GP may rely on the failure of any condition set forth in Section 7.1, Section 7.2 or Section 7.3, as the case may be, to be satisfied if such failure was due to the failure of either such party to perform and comply in all material respects with the covenants and agreements to be performed or complied with by it prior to the Closing.

(b)    None of the Parent Entities may rely on the failure of any condition set forth in Section 7.1, Section 7.2 or Section 7.3, as the case may be, to be satisfied if such failure was due to the failure of either such party to perform and comply in all material respects with the covenants and agreements to be performed or complied with by it prior to the Closing.

ARTICLE VIII

TERMINATION

Section 8.1    Termination. This Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement abandoned at any time prior to the Effective Time:

(a)    by the mutual written consent of Partnership and Parent duly authorized by the Parent Board and the GP Conflicts Committee.

(b)    by either of Partnership or Parent:

(i)    if the Closing shall not have been consummated on or before March 31, 2023, (the “Outside Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(b)(i) shall not be available (A) to Partnership or Parent if the failure to satisfy such condition was due to the failure of, in the case of Partnership, Partnership or Partnership GP, and in the case of the Parent Entities, to perform and comply in all material respects with the covenants and agreements to be performed or complied with by it prior to the Closing or (B) to Partnership or Parent if, in the case of Parent, Partnership or Partnership GP, and in the case of Partnership, any of the Parent Entities, has filed (and is then pursuing) an action seeking specific performance as permitted by Section 9.9;

(ii)    if any Restraint having the effect set forth in Section 7.1(c) shall be in effect and shall have become final and nonappealable; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(b)(ii) shall not be available to Partnership or Parent if such Restraint was due to the failure of, in the case of Partnership, Partnership or Partnership GP, and in the case of Parent, Parent, PBF LLC, Merger Sub or HoldCo to perform any of its respective obligations under this Agreement; or

53

(iii)    if the Partnership Unitholder Meeting and any postponements or adjournments thereof shall have concluded and the Partnership Unitholder Approval shall not have been obtained;

(c)    by Parent:

(i)    if a Partnership Adverse Recommendation Change shall have occurred prior to the Partnership Unitholder Meeting; or

(ii)    if Partnership or Partnership GP shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement (or if any of the representations or warranties of Partnership or Partnership GP set forth in this Agreement shall fail to be true), which breach or failure (A) would (if it occurred or was continuing as of the Closing Date) give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.2(b) and (B) is incapable of being cured, or is not cured, by Partnership or Partnership GP within thirty (30) days following receipt of written notice from Parent of such breach or failure; provided, however, that Parent shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c)(ii) if Parent, PBF LLC, Merger Sub or HoldCo is then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement.

(d)    by Partnership:

(i)     if Parent shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement (or if any of the representations or warranties of Parent set forth in this Agreement shall fail to be true), which breach or failure (A) would (if it occurred or was continuing as of the Closing Date) give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.3(a) or Section 7.3(b) and (B) is incapable of being cured, or is not cured, by Parent within thirty (30) days following receipt of written notice from Partnership of such breach or failure; provided, however, that Partnership shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(d) if Partnership or Partnership GP is then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement; or

(ii)    if prior to the receipt of the Partnership Unitholder Approval, in response to an Intervening Event, the GP Board or the GP Conflicts Committee shall have determined to terminate this Agreement as contemplated in Section 6.3(b); provided, that each of Partnership, the GP Board and the GP Conflicts Committee shall have complied in all material respects with Section 6.3(b).

Section 8.2    Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 8.1, written notice thereof shall be given to the other party or parties, specifying the provision of this Agreement pursuant to which such termination is made, and this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void (other than the provisions in the last

54

sentence of Section 6.6, the provisions in Section 6.8, Section 8.2, Section 8.3 and Article IX, all of which shall survive termination of this Agreement), and, except as otherwise provided in this Section 8.2, there shall be no liability on the part of any of Parent, PBF LLC, Merger Sub, HoldCo or Partnership and Partnership GP or their respective directors, officers and Affiliates; provided, however, that no such termination shall relieve any party hereto from (a) its obligation to pay the Parent Termination Fee, the Parent Expenses or the Partnership Expenses if, as and when required pursuant to Section 8.3, (b) any liability for any failure to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement when required pursuant to this Agreement or (c) any liability for intentional fraud or a Willful Breach of any covenant or other agreement contained in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Partnership GP or Partnership have any liability for any matter set forth in the proviso of the preceding sentence for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Partnership GP, Partnership, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives at the direction of Parent, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Willful Breach” shall mean a material breach of this Agreement that is a consequence of a deliberate act or a deliberate failure to act by the breaching party with the knowledge that the taking of such act (or the failure to take such act) would (i) cause a material breach of this Agreement and (ii) prevent or materially delay the Closing.

Section 8.3    Termination Fees; Expenses.

(a)    If this Agreement is validly terminated by Partnership or Parent pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.1(b)(iii) (No Partnership Unitholder Approval), Partnership shall pay to the Parent by wire transfer of immediately available funds (to an account designated by the Parent), an amount equal to the Parent Expenses, and such payment shall be made within three (3) Business Days following such termination.

(b)    If prior to the Partnership Unitholder Meeting this Agreement is validly terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(c)(i) (Partnership Adverse Recommendation Change) or Section 8.1(c)(ii) (Partnership Terminable Breach), Partnership shall pay to Parent the Parent Expenses within three (3) Business Days following such termination.

(c)    In no event shall Partnership be required to pay both the Parent Expenses and the Parent Termination Fee on more than one occasion. If Partnership is obligated to pay the Parent Expenses to Parent pursuant to Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.3(b), and the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.3(e), Partnership shall only be required to pay the Parent Termination Fee.

(d)    If this Agreement is validly terminated by Partnership pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(i) (Parent Terminable Breach), Parent shall pay to Partnership the Partnership Expenses within three (3) Business Days following such termination.

(e)    If this Agreement is validly terminated by Partnership pursuant to Section 8.1(d)(ii) (Partnership Adverse Recommendation Change), Partnership shall pay to Parent the Parent Termination Fee within three (3) Business Days following such termination.

55

(f)    The parties acknowledge that payment of the Parent Expenses, Parent Termination Fee and the Partnership Expenses, as applicable, if, as and when required pursuant to this Section 8.3, shall not constitute a penalty but will be liquidated damages, in a reasonable amount that will compensate the party receiving such amount in the circumstances in which it is due and payable and which do not involve fraud or Willful Breach, for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Merger, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. In no event shall a party be entitled to more than one payment of the Parent Expenses and Partnership Expenses, as applicable, in connection with a termination of this Agreement pursuant to which such amounts are payable.

(g)    The parties acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated hereby and that, without these agreements, none of Partnership, Partnership GP, Parent, PBF LLC, Merger Sub or HoldCo would enter into this Agreement.

ARTICLE IX

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 9.1    No Survival, Etc. The representations, warranties and agreements in this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any schedule, instrument or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement) shall terminate at the Effective Time or, except as otherwise provided in Section 8.2 or Section 8.3, upon the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, as the case may be, except that the agreements set forth in Article I, Article II, Article III and the last sentence of Section 6.6, Section 6.8 and Article IX and any other agreement in this Agreement that contemplates performance after the Effective Time shall survive the Effective Time.

Section 9.2    Amendment or Supplement. At any time prior to the Effective Time, this Agreement may be amended or supplemented in any and all respects, whether before or after receipt of the Partnership Unitholder Approval, by written agreement of the parties hereto, by action taken or authorized by the Parent Board and the GP Board; provided, however, that the GP Board may not take or authorize any such action unless it has been approved by the GP Conflicts Committee; provided, further, that following receipt of the Partnership Unitholder Approval, there shall be no amendment or change to the provisions of this Agreement which by applicable Law or stock exchange rule would require approval of the Parent Stockholders or further approval by the Common Unitholders, as applicable, without such approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of Parent and Partnership shall have the continuing right until the Closing to add, supplement or amend the Parent Disclosure Schedule and the Partnership Disclosure Schedule, as applicable, and no such amendment shall require the prior consent of the other party.

Unless otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, whenever a determination, decision, waiver, approval, agreement or consent of Partnership or Partnership GP is required pursuant to this Agreement (including any determination to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights under Article VIII or to enforce

56

the terms of this Agreement (including Section 9.9)), such determination, decision, waiver, approval, agreement or consent must be authorized by the GP Board; provided, however, that the GP Board may not take or authorize any such action unless it has been approved in writing by the GP Conflicts Committee.

Section 9.4    Extension of Time, Waiver, Etc.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by Partnership, Partnership GP, Parent, PBF LLC, Merger Sub or HoldCo in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right hereunder. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party.

Section 9.5    Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise, by any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, except that Merger Sub or HoldCo may assign, in their sole discretion, any of or all of their respective rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement to any Subsidiary of Parent, but no such assignment shall relieve Parent, PBF LLC, Merger Sub or HoldCo of any of its respective obligations hereunder. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Any purported assignment not permitted under this Section 9.5 shall be null, void and ineffective.

Section 9.6    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (including by electronic or portable document format (.pdf) transmission), each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties. The signatures of all parties need not appear on the same counterpart and delivery of an executed counterpart signature page of this Agreement (including by means of email attaching a copy in .pdf or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document) will be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement in the presence of the other parties.

Section 9.7    Entire Understanding; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement, the Support Agreement, the Partnership Disclosure Schedule, the Parent Disclosure Schedule and any certificates delivered by any party pursuant to this Agreement (a) constitute the entire agreement and understanding, and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the

57

subject matter of this Agreement and thereof and (b) shall not confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights (including third-party beneficiary rights or otherwise) or remedies hereunder, except for, in the case of clause (b) of this sentence, the provisions of Section 6.7 and Section 9.12.

Section 9.8    Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a)    This Agreement, and any claims or disputes arising under or related to this Agreement, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed entirely within that State.

(b)    Each of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees that any Proceeding with respect to this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder, shall be brought and determined exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware). Each of the parties hereto consents to the service being made through the notice procedures set forth in Section 9.10, irrevocably submits with regard to any such Proceeding for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the aforesaid courts. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Proceeding with respect to this Agreement, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve in accordance with this Section 9.8, (ii) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from the jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable Law, any claim that (A) the Proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such Proceeding is improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each party hereto expressly acknowledges that the foregoing waiver is intended to be irrevocable under the Law of the State of Delaware and of the United States of America; provided, however, that each such party’s consent to jurisdiction and service contained in this Section 9.8(b) is solely for the purpose referred to in this Section 9.8(b) and shall not be deemed to be a general submission to such courts or in the State of Delaware other than for such purpose

(c)    EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

58

Section 9.9    Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder in order to consummate the Merger) in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and it is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in each case, in accordance with this Section 9.9 in the Delaware Court of Chancery or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over such matter, any federal court sitting in the State of Delaware, 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 as provided herein on the basis that (a) either party has an adequate remedy at law or (b) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity (it being understood that nothing in this sentence shall prohibit the parties hereto from raising other defenses to a claim for specific performance or other equitable relief under this Agreement). Each party further agrees that no party shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 9.9, and each party irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.

Section 9.10    Notices. All notices, requests, demands, and other communications hereunder will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given: (a) if by transmission by facsimile or hand delivery, when delivered; (b) if mailed via the official governmental mail system, five (5) Business Days after mailing, provided said notice is sent first class, postage pre-paid, via certified or registered mail, with a return receipt requested; (c) if mailed by an internationally recognized overnight express mail service such as Federal Express or UPS, one (1) Business Day after deposit therewith prepaid; or (d) if by email, one (1) Business Day after delivery with receipt confirmed.
