2.
GRANT.
By this Agreement, ExxonMobil and BFA Holder establish a “Franchise” and a “Franchise
Relationship” as defined by the Petroleum Marketing Practices Act, 15 U.S.C. Sections 2801-2806 (the
“PMPA”). Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement:
(a)
With respect to the Proprietary Marks (as defined below) to be used in connection with the
retail sale of Exxon or Mobil-branded motor fuel (including both gasoline and diesel), as the
case may be (“Products”), ExxonMobil grants BFA Holder the limited and non-exclusive right
to:
(1)
Use the Mobil Proprietary Marks (as defined below) at (i) those Mobil-branded retail
outlets identified as CORS locations on Exhibit 1 hereto and (ii) such Mobil-branded
retail outlets as may be approved under Section 2(e) and operated by BFA Holder (or
a third party operator with experience in the operation of similar service station
properties) (“Operated Mobil Branded Outlets”);
(2)
Use the Exxon Proprietary Marks (as defined below) at such Exxon-branded retail
outlets as may be approved under Section 2(e) and operated by BFA Holder (or a
third party operator with experience in the operation of similar service station
properties) (“Operated Exxon Branded Outlets”);
(3)
Grant the use of the Mobil Proprietary Marks to BFA Holder’s franchised lessees or
franchised independent dealers (collectively, “Mobil Franchise Dealers”) at (i) those
Mobil-branded retail outlets identified as CODO or DOSS locations on Exhibit 1
hereto and (ii) such Mobil-branded retail outlets as may be approved under
Section 2(e) and operated by a franchised lessee or franchised independent dealer
(“Franchised Mobil Branded Outlets”); and
(4)
Grant the use of the Exxon Proprietary Marks to BFA Holder’s franchised lessees or
franchised independent dealers (collectively, “Exxon Franchise Dealers”) at such
Exxon-branded retail outlets as may be approved under Section 2(e) and operated by
a franchised lessee or franchised independent dealer (“Franchised Exxon Branded
Outlets”).
In this Agreement, (i) the Operated Mobil Branded Outlets and Operated Exxon
Branded Outlets may be collectively referred to as the “Operated Branded Outlets”,
(ii) the Franchised Mobil Branded Outlets and Franchised Exxon Branded Outlets
may be collectively referred to as the “Franchised Branded Outlets”, (iii) the
Operated Branded Outlets and the Franchised Branded Outlets, whether they be BFA
Holder Direct Served Outlets or BFA Holder Sub-Jobber Outlets may be collectively
referred to as the “BFA Holder Branded Outlets”, and (iv) the Mobil Franchise
Dealers and the Exxon Franchise Dealers may be collectively referred to as the
“Franchise Dealers”.
For purposes of this Agreement, BFA Holder Branded Outlets can be supplied in one
of two methods, (i) BFA Holder’s Direct Served Business, which are those BFA
Holder Branded Outlets that are supplied Product for retail sale through an agreement
directly with BFA Holder or any of its Affiliates (the “Direct Served Outlets”), or
(ii) BFA Holder’s Sub-Jobber Business, which are those BFA Holder Branded
Outlets that are supplied Product for retail sale through an agreement between BFA
Holder or one of its Affiliates and any branded wholesaler that is not an Affiliate of
BFA Holder (the “Sub-Jobber Outlets”). Note that for purposes of this Agreement,
the term “branded wholesaler(s)” shall include “distributor(s)”, as may be applicable.
(b)
Under this Agreement, “Mobil Proprietary Marks” shall mean (i) only those trademarks
identified on Exhibits 13-A and 13-B hereto and (ii) related trade dress. “Exxon Proprietary
Marks” shall mean (i) only those trademarks identified on Exhibits 14-A and 14-B hereto and
(ii) related trade
2
dress. “Proprietary Marks” shall mean the Mobil Proprietary Marks and the Exxon
Proprietary Marks, collectively or separately, as appropriate in context. The grants set forth in
Section 2(a) and Section 2(d)(1) by ExxonMobil to BFA Holder for BFA Holder’s use of the
Proprietary Marks, as to each Proprietary Mark, shall be limited to only the specific
corresponding goods and services listed on Exhibits 13-A and 14-A (as to the retail motor
fuels Business only), and 13-B and 14-B (as to the Related Businesses only) (the “Authorized
Uses”). For the avoidance of doubt, BFA Holder hereby agrees and acknowledges that the
Proprietary Marks may be used only during the Term and only at the BFA Holder Branded
Outlets and that nothing set forth in this Agreement shall be interpreted to grant BFA Holder
any rights in or to such Proprietary Marks for any offsite use unless expressly authorized by
ExxonMobil in writing. BFA Holder further hereby acknowledges and agrees that
notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, it shall not be permitted to use, or
grant the use of, any of the Exxon Proprietary Marks prior to June 1, 2011. In addition,
specifically excluded from any Authorized Use is BFA Holder’s use of any Proprietary Mark
on or in connection with any auto repair services or any trucks, cars or other rolling stock of
any nature. BFA Holder shall not have any authority under this Agreement to use any
trademark or other intellectual property of ExxonMobil or its Affiliates not specifically
identified on Exhibit 13-A, 13-B, 14-A or 14-B or any taglines or reward programs of
ExxonMobil or its Affiliates. BFA Holder shall be permitted only to use or grant the use of
either the Mobil Proprietary Marks, or the Exxon Proprietary Marks, at any one retail outlet
and shall not use or permit the use of both Mobil Proprietary Marks and Exxon Proprietary
Marks at any retail outlet. As used in this Agreement, the term “Affiliate” as it relates to
ExxonMobil means, (1) ExxonMobil Oil Corporation or its successors-in-interest, (2) any
parent corporation, partnership, or other entity of the ExxonMobil Oil Corporation or its
successors-in-interest which now or hereafter owns or controls, directly or indirectly through
one or more intermediaries, fifty percent or more of the ownership interest having the right to
vote for or appoint directors of ExxonMobil Oil Corporation or its successors-in-interest
(“Parent Company”), (3) any corporation, partnership, or other entity, regardless of where
situated, at least fifty percent of whose ownership interest having the right to vote for or
appoint directors is now or hereafter owned or controlled, directly or indirectly through one or
more intermediaries, by ExxonMobil Oil Corporation or its successors-in-interest or by its
Parent Company. As used in this Agreement, the term “Affiliate” as it relates to BFA Holder
means, any person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control
with BFA Holder, including any other person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by,
or under common control with such person. For purposes of this definition, the term “control”
(including the terms “controlled by” and “under common control with”) means the possession,
directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and
policies of any person, whether through the ownership of voting securities or by contract or
otherwise. For the purposes of this Agreement, Alliance Energy LLC, a Massachusetts
limited liability company (“Alliance”) and AE Holdings Corp., a Massachusetts corporation
and the managing member of Alliance shall not be considered Affiliates of BFA Holder.
(c)
BFA Holder will arrange for and be solely responsible for procuring an adequate supply of
unbranded motor fuel (“Base Product”) that meets the requirements of Section 5 of this
Agreement. After Base Product has been additized as provided in Section 5 hereof, it may be
distributed by BFA Holder as Product to the BFA Holder Branded Outlets subject to all terms
and conditions of this Agreement.
(d)
(1)
ExxonMobil acknowledges that BFA Holder may wish to operate additional
businesses of the type described in the Authorized Uses set forth on Exhibit 13-B or
14-B (“Related Businesses”) during the Term utilizing Proprietary Marks at any or
all of the BFA Holder Branded Outlets. Subject to the specific corresponding
Authorized Uses(s) listed on Exhibit 13-B or 14-B, and other terms and conditions of
this Agreement, ExxonMobil grants BFA Holder the right to utilize the Proprietary
Marks set forth on Exhibit 13-B or 14-B in connection with Related Businesses and
to grant to a Franchise Dealer the right to use such Proprietary Marks in connection
with Related Businesses solely to the extent and in the manner specified by
ExxonMobil from time to time. For the avoidance of doubt, ExxonMobil shall have
the right to change, modify, amend, add or remove, in its
3
sole discretion, the Related Businesses permitted pursuant to this Section 2(d)(1) and
the Authorized Use(s) set forth on Exhibit 13-B or 14-B.
(2)
BFA Holder acknowledges, and shall require its Franchise Dealers to acknowledge,
that the operation of a Related Business using any Proprietary Mark impacts
customers’ perceptions and acceptance of the Products and Proprietary
Marks. Accordingly, BFA Holder may operate, or authorize a Franchise Dealer to
operate, a Related Business utilizing Proprietary Marks at a BFA Holder Branded
Outlet only in compliance with ExxonMobil’s requirements as set out from time to
time by ExxonMobil and at all times in compliance with this Agreement. If BFA
Holder or any Franchise Dealer fails to comply with ExxonMobil’s requirements for
such a Related Business at any BFA Holder Branded Outlet, without limiting
ExxonMobil’s other rights or remedies under applicable laws or under this
Agreement or any related or supplemental agreement, including termination or non-
renewal of this Agreement and the Franchise Relationship, ExxonMobil may
withdraw its approval for the use of any such Proprietary Mark for that Related
Business.
(3)
During the Term, BFA Holder shall operate and shall cause its Franchise Dealers to
operate any Related Business utilizing any Proprietary Mark, as approved under
Section 2(e), in compliance with this Agreement and shall not operate, and shall
cause its Franchise Dealers not to operate, any other businesses or activities utilizing
Proprietary Marks at any BFA Holder Branded Outlet unless agreed in writing by the
parties hereto. During the Term, and except as expressly provided in this Agreement,
BFA Holder (or any of its Franchise Dealers) may change, delete or add a Related
Business at a BFA Holder Branded Outlet only with the prior written consent of
ExxonMobil. Nothing contained in this Section 2 may be construed as limiting or
preventing ExxonMobil from changing, deleting, adding or substituting any
Proprietary Mark used in connection with a Related Business.
(4)
The motor fuels business, under which BFA Holder distributes the Products
hereunder for retail sale at the BFA Holder Branded Outlets, the retail sales of motor
fuels at the BFA Holder Branded Outlets and the Related Businesses are herein
collectively referred to as the “Businesses.”
(e)
(1)
BFA Holder may use or operate at an Operated Branded Outlet, or grant and allow
the use or operation at a Franchised Branded Outlet of any Businesses or exercise any
other rights under Sections 2(a) and (d), only if:
(i)
ExxonMobil has expressly approved the Exxon or Mobil-branding, as the
case may be, of that retail outlet and the operation of the Businesses at that
retail outlet; and
(ii)
ExxonMobil has not:
(A)
Debranded that outlet; or
(B)
Withdrawn ExxonMobil’s approval for the operation of any
Business in question at that retail outlet.
For the purposes of Section 2(e)(1)(i) above, only those retail outlets set out on
Exhibit 1 are expressly approved for Mobil-branding. In particular, BFA Holder
acknowledges that, absent the express approval of ExxonMobil or assignment by
ExxonMobil in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, no retail outlet or other
operation that is Mobil or Exxon-branded and branded wholesaler-served as of the
Effective Date is subject to operation under the terms of this Agreement. Approval
of any outlets in
4
addition to those set out on Exhibit 1 will be on a site by site basis and shall be
memorialized by a trademark authorization letter in a form to be specified by
ExxonMobil from time to time. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, any Exxon
or Mobil branded retail outlet to be added under this Agreement that is approved at
that time for Exxon or Mobil-branding shall not require re-approval to be added
under this Agreement; provided, however, that ExxonMobil shall be entitled to
review the Exxon or Mobil branding of such outlet to ensure compliance with
Section 2(g) hereof.
(2)
In its sole discretion, ExxonMobil may approve or not approve the branding of any
outlet or the use or operation of any Businesses proposed by BFA Holder or any
Franchise Dealer. ExxonMobil is not obligated to furnish a reason for withholding
approval. ExxonMobil’s furnishing of a reason does not in any way limit its rights to
withhold for any reason any approval of that or any future branding proposal. BFA
Holder shall comply, and cause its Franchise Dealers to comply, with any
requirements and conditions imposed by ExxonMobil in giving its approval under
this Section.
(3)
By written notice to BFA Holder, ExxonMobil may withdraw its approval to:
(i)
Brand any BFA Holder Branded Outlet (“debrand”); or
(ii)
Use or operate any Business (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any
Related Business) at any outlet
if, in ExxonMobil’s sole judgment:
(a)
That outlet (or any Businesses thereat) fails to portray the image and
standards ExxonMobil expects from its branded retail outlets;
(b)
BFA Holder, or any Franchise Dealer, is in default of any material
obligation, condition, representation or warranty under this Agreement or
any related or supplemental agreement with respect to that retail outlet (or
any Business); or
(c)
Any actions by BFA Holder, any Franchise Dealer, any Affiliate of BFA
Holder or any third party management company in connection with its
operations on behalf of BFA Holder, whether in violation of its obligations
under this Agreement or otherwise, cause harm to the value or reputation of
the Proprietary Marks.
ExxonMobil shall provide prior written notice of its intention to withdraw its
approval pursuant to Section 2(e)(3)(a) or (b) and BFA Holder shall have a time
period, which shall in no event exceed thirty (30) days, in which to take corrective
action with respect to the BFA Holder Branded Outlet at issue. In the event that BFA
Holder has not satisfied ExxonMobil as to resolution of the issue within such thirty
(30) day period, ExxonMobil may withdraw its approval.
(4)
If ExxonMobil debrands any BFA Holder Branded Outlet, or withdraws its approval
to use or operate any Businesses at any BFA Holder Branded Outlet, BFA Holder
shall comply, and cause any Franchise Dealer at the retail outlet to comply, with the
provisions of Section 3 with respect to the retail outlet in question. The debranding
of one or more of the BFA Holder Branded Outlets does not constitute a termination
or non-renewal of this Agreement.
(5)
BFA Holder shall not permit and shall ensure that its Franchise Dealers do not
permit the following activities or types of business to occur at any BFA Holder
Branded Outlet:
5
(i)
The sale or use of illegal drugs or drug paraphernalia or other illegal
substances or activities,
(ii)
The sale of any pornographic material or other material that ExxonMobil in
its sole judgment determines may be offensive to the general public
(examples include but are not limited to Playboy, Hustler, and Penthouse
magazines),
(iii)
Adult businesses (examples include but are not limited to massage parlors,
strip clubs, and video stores),
(iv)
Bars or establishments that allow for any consumption of intoxicating
beverages or any sales or consumption of intoxicating beverages in violation
of applicable federal, state, county or local laws, statutes, ordinances, codes,
regulations, rules, orders or permits, or
(v)
The illegal sale of any tobacco products, including without limitation, sales
in violation of any federal, state, county or local laws, statutes, ordinances,
codes, regulations, rules, orders, or permits relating to youth access to
tobacco products. BFA Holder shall promptly advise ExxonMobil, and shall
ensure that Franchise Dealers promptly advise BFA Holder, of any citations
or notifications of violations received at any BFA Holder Branded Outlet
from any regulatory authority resulting from any such tobacco sales and of
the resolution of any such citations and notifications. BFA Holder agrees to
comply with the requirements set forth in Exhibit 8.
(6)
The terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Franchise Relationship are
exclusively between ExxonMobil and BFA Holder. Nothing in this Agreement may
be construed as creating any Franchise or Franchise Relationship with any other
person, including without limitation, any Franchise Dealer, employee or contractor of
BFA Holder.
(f)
This Agreement does not give BFA Holder an exclusive right in any market or geographic
area to sell Products or conduct any Related Business. BFA Holder acknowledges that
ExxonMobil and its Affiliates may directly or indirectly compete with BFA Holder by using,
or, subject to Section 2(g) authorizing the use of any trademark, trade names and trade dress
owned by ExxonMobil (or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates) from time to time including,
without limitation, the Proprietary Marks, including in close proximity to, and
notwithstanding any commercial impact on, any BFA Holder Branded Outlet.
(g)
In order to protect the integrity of the Exxon and Mobil brands in the Designated
Geographies, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no retail outlet may become a
BFA Holder Direct Served Outlet or Sub-Jobber Outlet pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement if such site is located within two (2) miles of any then-existing Exxon or Mobil
branded retail outlet, which then-existing Exxon or Mobil branded retail outlet is not also a
BFA Holder Direct Served Outlet or Sub-Jobber Outlet. The distance between any two retail
outlets shall be determined by the most geographically direct street route between the closest
identification sign located at each retail outlet.
The foregoing provision shall not restrict the operation of any retail outlet that may be set
forth on Exhibit 16 hereto from time to time. Exhibit 16 shall set forth all Exxon or Mobil
branded retail outlets in the Designated Geographies existing as of the Effective Date. Any
new Exxon or Mobil branded retail outlet that is added to an existing branded wholesaler
agreement between ExxonMobil and any of its existing branded wholesalers in the Designated
Geographies shall be
6
added to Exhibit 16 by ExxonMobil. Any Exxon or Mobil branded retail outlet that is
debranded shall be deleted from Exhibit 16 by ExxonMobil.
3.
TRADEMARKS
(a)
BFA Holder is permitted to display the Proprietary Marks solely to designate the brand of the
Products or other approved Businesses being operated at a BFA Holder Branded Outlet
(which uses shall be limited to only the specific corresponding Authorized Use(s) as to each
Proprietary Mark). BFA Holder agrees that no Product will be sold under any of the
Proprietary Marks unless it meets the product quality specifications set forth in this
Agreement and is additized as specified in this Agreement nor shall any Business be operated
unless it meets the quality specification and other standards (including any brand identity
standards or retail image standards) existing as of the Effective Date or modified or
established by ExxonMobil from time to time, as such standards and specifications may be
amended from time to time after the Effective Date. If there shall be posted, mounted, or
otherwise displayed on or in connection with any BFA Holder Branded Outlet any sign,
poster, placard, plate, device or form of advertising matter whether or not received from
ExxonMobil, consisting in whole or in part of the name of ExxonMobil or any of the
Proprietary Marks, BFA Holder agrees at all times to display same, or cause the Franchise
Dealers to display same, properly and not to diminish, dilute, denigrate, or otherwise
adversely affect same. BFA Holder further agrees to take no action that will diminish or
dilute the value of any Proprietary Mark.
(b)
Immediately upon termination (whether in full or as to any individual outlet) or expiration of
this Agreement, or prior thereto upon demand by ExxonMobil, BFA Holder shall discontinue
all uses of the Proprietary Marks, including the posting, mounting or display of any
Proprietary Mark and all uses of Proprietary Marks in connection with business cards,
advertisements and letterhead/stationary, and shall cause its Franchise Dealers to do the
same. If BFA Holder or any Franchise Dealer ceases to do business at any BFA Holder
Branded Outlet, BFA Holder shall, and shall cause its Franchise Dealer to, discontinue the
posting, mounting or display of any Proprietary Marks immediately upon BFA Holder or its
Franchise Dealer(s), as the case may be, ceasing to sell the Products or operate the Business,
including, without limitation, in the event that the BFA Holder Branded Outlet in question is
debranded by ExxonMobil under Section 2(e) or in any event upon demand by
ExxonMobil. BFA Holder acknowledges ExxonMobil’s self-help rights set forth in this
Agreement, including the rights of entry described in Sections 26(e) and 35, and agrees that
BFA Holder shall be solely responsible for all fees, cost and expenses incurred by
ExxonMobil or its Affiliates in exercising any such rights.
(c)
BFA Holder agrees to notify ExxonMobil or its designee of any apparent or threatened
infringement, dilution or other misuse (“Misuse”) of any Proprietary Mark promptly after
becoming aware of such Misuse. ExxonMobil shall have the sole right, in its sole discretion,
to take any action, legal or otherwise, against such Misuse, and notwithstanding any other
provisions in this Agreement, BFA Holder agrees to provide ExxonMobil with any assistance
which, in the opinion or judgment of ExxonMobil, is necessary to protect ExxonMobil’s right,
title and interest in and to the Proprietary Marks. ExxonMobil shall be entitled in such event
to retain all monetary recovery from any misusing third party by way of judgment, settlement
or otherwise. BFA Holder shall have no right to, and hereby agrees that it will not (except as
requested by ExxonMobil), take any action, with respect to any apparent or threatened Misuse
of any Proprietary Mark. BFA Holder shall have no recourse against ExxonMobil,
ExxonMobil’s agents, officers, directors, and employees or third parties under their control in
the event ExxonMobil chooses not to act against any apparent or threatened Misuse of any of
the Proprietary Marks or if any third party challenges the right of ExxonMobil or BFA Holder
to use any of the Proprietary Marks.
(d)
BFA Holder shall not, and shall cause its Franchise Dealers not to, sell non-Exxon or Mobil-
branded motor fuels under any Proprietary Mark, including without limitation, any Exxon or
Mobil-identified canopy or at any fueling island where BFA Holder or a Franchise Dealer is
selling Products. As used in this Section, “non-Exxon or Mobil-branded motor fuels” shall not
be construed to apply to gasohol or other synthetic motor fuels of similar usability, to the
extent
7
provided for in the Gasohol Competition Act of 1980, Pub. L.96-493 or renewable fuels as
defined in Section 2807 of the Petroleum Marketing Practices Act; provided however, that
BFA Holder and its Franchise Dealers shall label such product so as to ensure that consumers
are not confused that such product is an Exxon or Mobil-branded motor fuel.
(e)
Without affecting BFA Holder’s obligations under Section 3(d), if BFA Holder or any
Franchise Dealer offers non-Exxon or Mobil-branded motor fuels at a BFA Holder Branded
Outlet, BFA Holder agrees to protect, and cause its Franchise Dealer(s) in question to protect,
the identity of the Products and the Proprietary Marks by all reasonable methods, which would
prevent customer confusion or misinformation. BFA Holder agrees to conform, and cause its
Franchise Dealers to conform, to ExxonMobil’s de-branding requirements as outlined in
Exhibits 9A and 9B, as same may be revised from time to time, including but not limited to
posting of ExxonMobil approved signs which clearly distinguish the Products from non-
Exxon or Mobil-branded motor fuels, disclaiming any product liability of ExxonMobil for
damage resulting from use of non-Exxon or Mobil-branded motor fuels, and removing or
covering any signs which may mislead, confuse, or misinform any customers or reduce their
goodwill toward any Proprietary Mark. In addition, BFA Holder agrees to comply, and cause
its Franchise Dealers to comply, with any additional steps beyond the ExxonMobil de-
branding requirements set forth in any applicable law, ordinance or regulation regarding the
labeling of petroleum products.
(f)
In furtherance of its obligations as set forth in this Section, BFA Holder agrees that it will for
itself, and as to any of its Franchise Dealers, require of such Franchise Dealers that they will,
while identifying the source of the Products sold at any BFA Holder Branded Outlet, comply
with the provisions of this Section. Such assistance includes, but is not limited to, the
authorization to ExxonMobil to commence legal proceedings in BFA Holder’s name, and at
BFA Holder’s expense, for the purposes of enforcing BFA Holder’s obligations in this
Section.
(g)
BFA Holder shall have neither the right to use or display at marinas, nor the right to authorize
or permit the use or display at marinas by Franchise Dealers of, any Proprietary Mark and
shall not sell, and shall cause its Franchise Dealers not to sell, Products at marinas.
(h)
To permit ExxonMobil to carry out its rights to protect its Proprietary Marks from diminution,
dilution, or destruction by misuse or failure by those to whom permission to display them has
been granted under this Agreement, BFA Holder agrees that upon request by ExxonMobil it
will provide ExxonMobil with a list of the names and addresses of Franchise Dealers to whom
BFA Holder has provided any Proprietary Mark and where such BFA Holder Branded Outlets
are displaying such Proprietary Marks.
(i)
If BFA Holder, for whatever reason, ceases to display or authorize the display of Proprietary
Marks at any BFA Holder Branded Outlet, then BFA Holder will notify ExxonMobil in
writing within thirty (30) days of that event.
(j)
Except as may be expressly permitted by ExxonMobil, BFA Holder shall not, and shall cause
its Franchise Dealers not to, use the Proprietary Marks as part of BFA Holder’s or any
Franchise Dealer’s corporate or other name or as part of or in conjunction with any domain
name.
(k)
BFA Holder shall, and shall cause its Franchise Dealers to, immediately stop using the
Proprietary Marks relating to any Business at any BFA Holder Branded Outlet if:
(1)
this Agreement is terminated or the Term expires and is not renewed or extended; or
(2)
ExxonMobil withdraws its approval to use or operate that Business at that outlet
under Section 2(e); or
(3)
BFA Holder or its Franchise Dealer(s) stops operating that Business at that outlet;
8
and, in any such event, to follow any de-branding requirements that may then be applicable.
(l)
BFA Holder’s use of any of the Proprietary Marks in conjunction with any uniforms, business
cards or business stationary at all times shall be subject to and in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement and all standards set forth by ExxonMobil or its Affiliates, as such standards
may be amended by ExxonMobil or its Affiliates, in their sole discretion, from time to
time. All uniforms used in connection with the Businesses bearing any of the Proprietary
Marks shall be purchased solely and exclusively from an ExxonMobil approved vendor.
(m)
BFA Holder acknowledges that ExxonMobil (or Exxon Mobil Corporation or any of its
Affiliates as the case may be) is the exclusive owner of the Proprietary Marks, and no
ExxonMobil act, or failure to act, will give BFA Holder or any Franchise Dealer any
ownership interest or right in any of the Proprietary Marks. All goodwill resulting from the
use of the Proprietary Marks by BFA Holder or its Franchise Dealers shall inure to the benefit,
and is the property, of ExxonMobil (or its Affiliates as the case may be). ExxonMobil may, at
any time or from time to time, change or substitute any Proprietary Marks used in connection
with the Products or any Business. In case of any change or substitution, BFA Holder shall
immediately use, and cause its Franchise Dealers to immediately use, the Proprietary Marks as
changed.
(n)
BFA Holder hereby acknowledges that failure on the part of BFA Holder or its Franchise
Dealer(s) to use any Proprietary Mark in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
will cause irreparable injury to ExxonMobil and that any court of competent jurisdiction may,
at the request of ExxonMobil, enforce the provisions of this Agreement by the entry of a
temporary or permanent injunction against BFA Holder and in favor of ExxonMobil. BFA
Holder agrees not to contest the appropriateness of injunctive relief but may contest whether it
has failed to use the Proprietary Marks in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement. BFA Holder will incorporate in its agreements with each Franchise Dealer the
undertakings and obligations provided in this Agreement (including this Section 3). BFA
Holder agrees to immediately notify ExxonMobil of any Franchise Dealer failing to comply
with any such undertaking or obligation and agrees to assist ExxonMobil in its enforcement
thereof.
(o)
In order to foster the continued public acceptance of the Proprietary Marks and to protect the
brand reputation of the Products which are the subject of this Agreement, BFA Holder will
use best efforts to promptly inform ExxonMobil of any event or condition which will
significantly impact the operation of any BFA Holder Branded Outlet or which has resulted in
or may result in significant media exposure related to any BFA Holder Branded Outlets.
4.
QUALITY, GRADE, SPECIFICATION, OR NAME OF PRODUCT; QUALITY ASSURANCE
PROCEDURES.
(a)
ExxonMobil shall have the right, at its sole discretion and at any time during the Term, to
change, alter, amend or eliminate any of the grades or brands of Products or any Proprietary
Marks covered by this Agreement. ExxonMobil may also, in its sole discretion and from time
to time, change or alter the quality or specification of any of the Products covered by this
Agreement. In the event that a certain grade, quality or specification of motor fuels is offered
in one of the states within the Designated Geographies by more than thirty-five percent (35%)
of the then existing non-Exxon or Mobil branded retail outlets that is not covered by this
Agreement at that time, BFA Holder shall have the right to request that ExxonMobil consent
to a change or alteration in, or addition to, the grades, quality or specifications of the Products
to offer such grade, quality or specification of motor fuel in the relevant state within the
Designated Geographies, and ExxonMobil shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any
such request.
(b)
ExxonMobil has provided BFA Holder a copy of “QUALITY CONTROL PROCEDURES
FOR GASOLINES AND DIESEL FUEL” attached as Exhibit 10. This is the same document
furnished to Traditional Wholesalers who are purchasing motor fuel product directly from
ExxonMobil. BFA Holder agrees to store, handle, sell and dispense all fuel sold through BFA
Holder Branded
9
Outlets in compliance with all the procedures and specifications set out in Exhibit 10 and to
procure the compliance of its Franchise Dealers, notwithstanding the fact that BFA Holder is
not purchasing motor fuel from ExxonMobil. ExxonMobil reserves the right to revise the
procedures and specifications at any time and BFA Holder agrees that it will, upon written
notice of such revision, immediately begin compliance with the revised procedures and
specifications and will procure compliance of its Franchise Dealers. In the event BFA Holder
fails to comply with this Section, ExxonMobil may, without limitation to any other remedies
available to ExxonMobil, engage the services of an outside contract firm to perform sampling,
testing and reporting. The fees, costs and expenses of such outside contract firm shall be
borne solely by BFA Holder.
(c)
Time is of the essence in complying with this Section 4. BFA Holder is obligated to take
commercially reasonable steps to mitigate any potential losses or damage resulting from any
product quality defects. BFA Holder’s notice of consumer quality claims should be sent to the
ExxonMobil Business Support Centre Canada, ULC, Attn: Branded Wholesaler Contract
Team Lead, P.O. Box 2245, Buffalo, NY 14240-2245.

PRODUCT DISTRIBUTION.
(a)
ExxonMobil and BFA Holder acknowledge and agree that this is not a product sales or supply
agreement. ExxonMobil has no obligation under this Agreement or otherwise to supply BFA
Holder with either branded or unbranded motor fuel products or its proprietary additive
package, including without limitation, gasoline and diesel. BFA Holder is solely responsible
for securing and paying for Base Product and the additive package, which meet all federal,
state, and local regulatory and product quality standards in effect for motor fuels offered for
sale through retail outlets in the Designated Geographies. Base Product must also meet
ExxonMobil quality specifications as more specifically set out in Exhibit 3 (as confirmed by
testing as described in Exhibit 3). BFA Holder shall participate in ExxonMobil’s annual
Marker Program in order to confirm compliance with the requirements of this Agreement and
ExxonMobil’s standards.
(b)
BFA Holder shall not (i) acquire any motor fuels from ExxonMobil or any of its Affiliates
within the Designated Geographies, nor (ii) acquire any motor fuels from ExxonMobil or any
of its Affiliates within the United States of America for resale as motor fuel in the Designated
Geographies. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, BFA Holder shall be permitted to
purchase motor fuels from ExxonMobil through in tank sales for a time period beginning on
the Effective Date and ending upon the later of (A) one hundred and twenty (120) days
following the Effective Date, and (B) December 31, 2010.
(c)
BFA Holder shall procure the additives identified on Exhibit 4 from only those suppliers
specified on Exhibit 4 (or such other supplier as may be subsequently identified by
ExxonMobil). BFA Holder shall additize the Base Product in accordance with the
specifications set forth in Exhibit 4, using industry standard computer controlled additive
injection equipment, prior to distribution through any BFA Holder Branded Outlet as
Product. In the event that BFA Holder desires a waiver from ExxonMobil with respect to the
specified additive or suppliers, or the fuel quality specifications, BFA Holder shall contact the
appropriate ExxonMobil fuels quality manager to discuss such a request, as provided on
Exhibit 4.
(d)
BFA Holder will bear full financial responsibility for the cost of installation and maintenance
of additive racks at all terminals from which it distributes Products. If ExxonMobil desires
that a third party(s) with whom it has a brand fee agreement or other license, distribution or
wholeasaler agreement have access, BFA Holder agrees to allow that third party(ies) to use
the additive system on a terminal by terminal basis and shall charge such third
party(s) commercially reasonable rates for such access.
(e)
ExxonMobil agrees to undertake reasonable efforts to cooperate with BFA Holder as BFA
Holder attempts to negotiate supply and/or additive injection arrangements with potential
supply partners, provided that ExxonMobil is not obligated hereby to waive or amend any
rights it has under this Agreement or undertake any financial obligations not set forth in this
Agreement.

Holder acknowledges that it has been advised and understands that it will not be eligible for
various types of financial assistance or support programs, including without limitation Brand

BFA Holder any programs or services not expressly provided for in this Agreement and BFA
Holder further acknowledges that this fact constitutes a material inducement for ExxonMobil
to enter into this Agreement.
(b)
BFA Holder shall participate in (i) ExxonMobil’s credit card program offerings through
ExxonMobil’s approved third party provider; (ii) either ExxonMobil’s proprietary Mystery
Shopper program or an ExxonMobil-approved third party Mystery Shopper program; and
(iii) effective January 1, 2011, the ExxonMobil Point of Purchase signage
program. Reasonable efforts should be used to post the current ExxonMobil Point of Purchase
signage where applicable and allowable. Such participation shall be solely at BFA Holder’s
expense.

(4)
Training

time to time to another “BFA Holder” under a separate brand fee agreement in the Designated
Geographies.
(d)
BFA Holder acknowledges and agrees that all programs referenced in Sections 6(b) and
6(c) hereof are subject to change or cancellation at ExxonMobil’s sole discretion and that
ExxonMobil may, from time to time and in its discretion, add new or existing programs to the
required programs list or the eligible programs list. BFA Holder further acknowledges that
nothing set forth in this Agreement obligates ExxonMobil to provide (or continue to provide)
support for any such program and that such support is provided at ExxonMobil’s discretion.

the Initial Base Brand Fee plus an amount equal to the number of Rebranded BFA Holder
Outlets as of the Recalculation Date times the New Site Brand Fee; or

Volume, the amount calculated pursuant to Paragraphs (1) through (5) below:
(1) Divide the total volume of Recalculated Total Volume by the Recalculated
Base Outlets, in order to calculate the average gallons of Product sold per
Recalculated Base Outlet. [For example, **]
(2) Divide the Initial Total Volume by the average gallons of Product sold per

(provided, however, that any sale of Exxon-branded motor fuels prior to June 1, 2011 shall be
disregarded) prior to becoming a Direct Served Outlet has been added pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement as of any Annual Recalculation Date, then in addition to the 10 Year Brand
Fee or Adjusted Brand Fee, as may be applicable, BFA Holder shall pay to ExxonMobil an
annual fee in an amount equal to $** for each such Direct Served Outlet during each of the
first two (2) full years of the Term during which such site is subject to this Agreement, such

Holder shall not be required to pay to ExxonMobil such additional fees for any Direct Served
Outlet that became a Direct Served Outlet as a result of BFA Holder’s acquisition of a

assets.

equal to $** times the number of Sub-Jobber Outlets existing as of the immediately preceding
Annual Recalculation Date.
(ii) If a Sub-Jobber Outlet has been added pursuant to the terms of this Agreement as of
any Annual Recalculation Date that resulted from the assignment by ExxonMobil to BFA
Holder of an existing branded wholesaler agreement, then in addition to the Brand Fee
calculated pursuant to Section 7(b)(i), BFA Holder shall pay to ExxonMobil on each
anniversary of the Effective Date a one-time fee in amount equal to $** for each such Sub-
Jobber Outlet added as of the immediately preceding Annual Recalculation Date.
(iii) If a Sub-Jobber Outlet that sold Products at any time within three (3) years
(provided, however, that any sale of Exxon-branded motor fuels prior to June 1, 2011 shall be
disregarded) prior to becoming a Sub-Jobber Outlet has been added pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement as of any Annual Recalculation Date, then in addition to the Brand Fee
calculated pursuant to Section 7(b)(i), BFA Holder shall pay to ExxonMobil an additional
annual fee in an amount equal to $** for each such Sub-Jobber Outlet during each of the first
two (2) full years of the Term during which such site is subject to this Agreement, such
amount to be paid in accordance with Section 8 below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BFA
Holder shall not be required to pay to ExxonMobil such additional fees for any Sub-Jobber
Outlet that (a) was assigned to BFA Holder by ExxonMobil, if the fee payable pursuant to
Section 7(b)(ii) has already been paid to ExxonMobil or (b) became a Sub-Jobber Outlet as a
result of BFA Holder’s acquisition of a branded wholesaler that indirectly supplied Products
to such Sub-Jobber Outlet, whether by merger or by acquisition of all of the branded
wholesaler’s stock or substantially all of its assets.
Thirty (30) days prior to each anniversary of the Effective Date, BFA Holder shall deliver to
ExxonMobil a statement showing the adjustment to the number of Sub-Jobber Outlets as of
the Annual Recalculation Date along with supporting documentation. ExxonMobil shall have
the right to review and approve the adjustment to the number of Sub-Jobber Outlets. Any
dispute between the parties hereto relating to the adjustment shall be resolved in accordance
with Section 39 of this Agreement, without regard to the amount in controversy limitation set
forth in Section 39(b)(i).
(c) On or before February 15 of each year, BFA Holder will provide ExxonMobil an annual
summary that details the volume of Product sold by each BFA Holder Branded Outlet for the
immediately preceding calendar year. The form, content, and supporting documentation shall be as
specified by ExxonMobil from time to time. ExxonMobil, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to
audit BFA Holder’s records (as well as any applicable Franchisee Dealer records) at any time for the
purpose of verifying Product volume. BFA Holder agrees to fully cooperate, and to cause each
Franchise Dealer to fully cooperate, with any audit request.

PAYMENT AND CREDIT.
(a)
Unless ExxonMobil notifies BFA Holder otherwise, BFA Holder will pay ExxonMobil in
United States dollars for any fee by electronic funds transfer at the time ExxonMobil
designates and BFA Holder will execute the agreement attached as Exhibit 6. Each monthly
brand fee payment described in Section 7 above shall be paid to ExxonMobil in advance. The
first such payment shall be made on the Effective Date and shall be prorated to reflect the
number of days remaining in the month during which the Effective Date occurs. Payments of
brand fees relating to each
15
subsequent month during the Term shall be made on the 15
th
day of each month immediately
preceding the month to which such brand fee applies (for example, brand fees for March 2010
operations shall be paid by BFA Holder to ExxonMobil no later than February 15, 2010). In
the event any payment date is not a Business Day, then the payment shall be made on the prior
Business Day. In addition, on the Effective Date, BFA Holder shall pay to ExxonMobil for
each BFA Holder Branded Outlet that is participating (or has participated) in the BIP (as
defined in Section 19(d)(1)) an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the total amount of financial
assistance that ExxonMobil has paid under the BIP (whether through a direct payment, set-off,
credit or other indirect payment) with respect to such retail outlet times (the number of days
remaining in the branding obligation with respect to such retail outlet divided by the total
number of days of the branding obligation with respect to such retail outlet) and (ii) the
compensatory dollar amount collectable as of the Effective Date with respect to such retail
outlet in the event of a default under the BIP. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BFA Holder
agrees that ExxonMobil has the ongoing right to periodically give BFA Holder notice of a
different method, time, or place of payment.
(b)
In the event ExxonMobil does not receive payment on or before the due date, ExxonMobil
may impose, and BFA Holder will pay, a late payment charge for each day that passes
between the due date and the date ExxonMobil receives payment. This late payment charge
will be in addition to ExxonMobil’s other remedies, and will not exceed the lesser of: (A) the
maximum allowed by law, or (B) a fixed rate that may vary from state to state in
ExxonMobil’s sole discretion, but that will not be less than eighteen percent (18%) per annum
prorated over the period that credit is outstanding; and
(c)
ExxonMobil has the right, but not the obligation, to offset any amounts owed by BFA Holder
or any of its Affiliates to ExxonMobil or any of its Affiliates against any amounts owed by
ExxonMobil or any of its Affiliates to BFA Holder or any of its Affiliates, whether arising
from charges under this Agreement, or arising under any other agreement or business
transaction between the BFA Holder or any of its Affiliates and ExxonMobil and/or any of its
Affiliates.
(d)
If requested by ExxonMobil, BFA Holder shall provide to ExxonMobil and maintain security
in an amount not to exceed three (3) months of the Brand Fees calculated pursuant to
Section 7 and in such forms, in either case as ExxonMobil may specify in its sole discretion
(“Security”), including without limitation a letter of credit, cash deposit, or assignment,
mortgage or pledge of cash, savings accounts or real estate or other collateral which is
acceptable to ExxonMobil. ExxonMobil may use, without prior notice or demand, any or all
of the Security to set off or satisfy all or any part of any indebtedness or obligation of BFA
Holder to ExxonMobil or its Affiliates whether arising under this Agreement, any other
agreement or from any other business transaction between the parties. If ExxonMobil uses
any Security to satisfy all or any part of any such indebtedness or obligation, BFA Holder
shall immediately provide ExxonMobil with additional security, as directed by ExxonMobil,
to replace the Security used by ExxonMobil. Following non-renewal or termination of this
Agreement and the Franchise Relationship, ExxonMobil shall return to BFA Holder, in
accordance with ExxonMobil’s procedures then in effect, any remaining portion of the
Security not required to satisfy all or any part of any indebtedness or other obligation of BFA
Holder to ExxonMobil or its Affiliates howsoever arising. At ExxonMobil’s request at any
time during the Term, BFA Holder shall execute and deliver to ExxonMobil a security
agreement, financing statement, mortgage, deed of trust or other documentation as
ExxonMobil may specify in such form and with such terms as ExxonMobil may specify, to
establish or perfect ExxonMobil’s security interest in the Security.
9.
CARD ADMINISTRATION.
(a)
ExxonMobil may issue branded credit cards (“ExxonMobil Cards”) and process and pay for
ExxonMobil Card sales tickets submitted to ExxonMobil in accordance with the terms of the
applicable card guide. ExxonMobil may authorize third party issuers (“Third Party Issuer(s)”)
to issue ExxonMobil Cards and other cards and process and pay BFA Holder for ExxonMobil
Cards and other card sales tickets submitted to Third Party Issuer(s) in accordance with the
terms of an applicable card guide or agreement. ExxonMobil has the right, but not the
obligation, to change at
16
any time its methods or terms of issuing, or authorizing the issuance of, ExxonMobil Cards
and other cards and its methods or terms of processing and paying, or authorizing the
processing and payment of, ExxonMobil Cards and other card sales tickets. Nothing in this
Agreement obligates ExxonMobil or Third Party Issuer(s) to issue ExxonMobil Cards and
other cards or to process for payment ExxonMobil Cards and other card sales tickets.
(b)
BFA Holder agrees to be bound by and comply with all terms and conditions of any card
guide or agreement under which ExxonMobil or Third Party Issuer(s) agrees to process and
pay for ExxonMobil Cards and other card sales tickets. The terms of such card guide or
agreement may be amended and/or supplemented at any time by ExxonMobil or Third Party
Issuer(s).
(c)
If Third Party Issuer(s) agrees to pay BFA Holder for ExxonMobil Card or other card sales
tickets submitted for payment in accordance with the terms of the applicable card guide or
agreement, BFA Holder will look solely to Third Party Issuer(s) and not to ExxonMobil for
such payment. Should ExxonMobil elect to (or otherwise) pay all or any portion of any card
sales ticket charged back by Third Party Issuer(s) to BFA Holder, upon demand from
ExxonMobil, BFA Holder shall immediately reimburse ExxonMobil for any such payments
made by ExxonMobil.
(d)
ExxonMobil has the right, but not the obligation, to offset any amounts owed by ExxonMobil
or any of its Affiliates to BFA Holder or any of its Affiliates against any amounts owed by
BFA Holder or any of its Affiliates to ExxonMobil or any of its Affiliates, whether arising
under this Agreement, any other agreement or from any other business transaction between
the parties or any of their Affiliates. ExxonMobil has the right, but not the obligation, to
instruct a Third Party Issuer(s) to pay ExxonMobil rather than BFA Holder for ExxonMobil
Card and other card sales tickets submitted by BFA Holder to Third Party Issuer(s), to apply
against the payment of any amounts owed by BFA Holder to ExxonMobil whether arising
under this Agreement, any other agreement or from any other business transaction between
the parties.
(e)
If BFA Holder requests ExxonMobil or Third Party Issuer(s) to accept assignment of credit or
debit card tickets from and make return payment directly to any Franchise Dealers, and
ExxonMobil or Third Party Issuer(s) agrees, in its sole discretion, to accept such assignments,
BFA Holder agrees that such assignments shall be treated for all purposes as if assigned
directly by BFA Holder, charge-backs of reassigned credit or debit sales tickets received from
such Franchise Dealers shall be the responsibility of BFA Holder, and that such charge-backs
may be deducted from sums owed by ExxonMobil or Third Party Issuer(s) to BFA Holder.
(f)
If BFA Holder or a Franchised Dealer accepts credit or debit cards in payment for any sales of
any goods or services, then BFA Holder shall comply with and shall require all such
Franchised Dealers to comply with all industry standard card security procedures, specifically
including but not limited to (i) the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI),
(ii) the security standards and requirements imposed on merchants by the VISA Operating
Rules, (iii) the security standards and requirements imposed on merchants by the MasterCard
Operating Rules, (iv) the security standards and requirements imposed on merchants by
American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc., and its parents, subsidiaries and
affiliates, and (v) the security standards and requirements imposed on merchants by DFS
Services LLC and its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates. The foregoing duty is in addition to
any duties that BFA Holder may have under an applicable card guide or agreement pursuant to
subsection (a) above. In addition to all other duties to indemnify, BFA Holder will indemnify,
defend, and hold harmless ExxonMobil from and against all causes of action, costs, expenses,
fees, assessments, reimbursements, fines, penalties and/or losses of whatsoever nature and
howsoever arising that result directly or indirectly from BFA Holder’s failure or alleged
failure to comply with the requirements of this subsection.
10.
TAXES.
ExxonMobil is not responsible for payment of any taxes, fees or other charges, whether or not of the
same class or kind as those listed below, whenever imposed or assessed, that any federal, state, county
or local laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, regulations, rules, orders, or permits (now in effect or
hereafter amended
17
or enacted) directly or indirectly require to be collected or paid
related in any manner to the Base
Product or additives that BFA Holder acquires.
These charges include, without limitation (a) duty
taxes; (b) sales taxes; (c) excise taxes; (d) taxes on or measured by income, and (e) taxes on or
measured by gross receipts.
11.
FAILURE TO PERFORM.
(a)
Any delays in or failure of performance of either party hereto shall not constitute default
hereunder or give rise to any claims for damages if and to the extent that such delay or failure
is caused by occurrences beyond the control of the party affected, including, but not limited
to, acts of God or the public enemy; expropriation or confiscation of facilities; compliance
with any order or request of any governmental authority; acts of war, terrorism, rebellion or
sabotage or damage resulting therefrom; embargoes or other import or export restrictions;
fires, floods, explosions, accidents, or breakdowns; riots; strikes or other concerted acts of
workers, whether direct or indirect; inability to obtain necessary industrial supplies, energy, or
equipment; or any other causes whether or not of the same class or kind as those specifically
above named which are not within the control of the party affected and which, by the exercise
of reasonable diligence, said party is unable to prevent or provide against; provided that such
causes shall exclude specifically changes in the national or world economy or financial
markets or changes in general economic conditions or the economic conditions of the party
failing to perform. A party whose performance is affected by any of the causes set forth in the
preceding sentence shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other party. Neither party
hereto shall be obligated to settle strikes, differences with workmen or government claims by
acceding to any demands when in the discretion of the party whose performance is interfered
with, it would be inadvisable to accede to such demands.
(b)

MARKET DEVELOPMENT AND REPRESENTATION.
(a)
A primary business purpose of ExxonMobil is to optimize effective and efficient distribution
and representation of Products through planned market and image development. In
furtherance of this business purpose, BFA Holder and ExxonMobil agree as follows:
(1)
While it is not a requirement of this Agreement, ExxonMobil believes that it is
important for BFA Holder to have, and periodically update, a market development
plan. The plan should provide for the selection and acquisition, or otherwise securing
by BFA Holder for the purposes of branding under this Agreement, of “strategic
sites” (as defined from time to time by ExxonMobil) as BFA Holder Branded

(2)
Unless pursuant to specific prior written authorization from ExxonMobil, BFA
Holder shall not, directly or indirectly, sell or supply, or cause to be sold or supplied,
Products to any person or entity then currently having a PMPA Franchise Agreement

pertains to a specific retail outlet(s). The reference to “entity” in the preceding
sentence shall be deemed to include any other entity owned or controlled by the
person or entity having the aforementioned PMPA Franchise Agreement directly
with ExxonMobil or any of its Affiliates. An example of an entity having a PMPA
Franchise Agreement pertaining to a specific retail outlet is a “direct served dealer”.

Holder shall not, directly or indirectly, sell or supply, or cause to be sold or supplied,

facility/product/service requirements (unless such compliance will result in the BFA Holder or
Franchise Dealer, as the case may be, being in breach of any federal, state, county or local
laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, regulations, rules, orders, or permits) or BFA Holder shall
lose the right to use or display Proprietary Marks or to grant to its Franchise Dealers the right
to use or display Proprietary Marks at any BFA Holder Branded Outlet(s) failing to meet these
requirements:
(1)
Paved driveways with safe and good ingress and egress; and

time to time (consisting of three (3) grades each for the Mobil product slate and the
Exxon product slate as of the Effective Date); and

(6)
Posting, at all times, of actual motor fuel prices, in numerals, in price sign systems
(approved by ExxonMobil in its sole discretion) located on the premises of the BFA
Holder Branded Outlet(s); and
(7)
Compliance, as to each site, no later than the earlier of (A) the completion of any
Demolish and Rebuild or other site improvement work reasonably expected to
require an investment by BFA Holder or any Franchise Dealer of $100,000 or more
and (B) the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date, with all applicable standards as
described in Exhibit 7 (“Facility Requirements”), which is incorporated herein and
made a part of this Agreement.

(b)
BFA Holder may meet its obligations under this Agreement for environmental impairment
insurance coverage for underground storage tanks under Section 20(a)(5) by participation in
an Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) approved state financial assurance fund or
other EPA-approved method to demonstrate financial responsibility or by satisfying any of the
other financial assurance test requirements of the EPA’s Financial Responsibility Regulations
(40 CFR Part 280). Upon request by ExxonMobil, BFA Holder shall promptly furnish

policy or policies when due.
(e)
BFA Holder shall comply, and cause its Franchise Dealers to comply, with all policy terms
and conditions and the directions of the insurance carrier, its ratings bureau and the National
Fire Protection Association. BFA Holder, or its Franchise Dealer(s) as the case may be, shall
bear all claims, losses or damages that are not recoverable from BFA Holder’s, or the
Franchise Dealer’s, as the case may be, insurers due to the application of a deductible clause
or to BFA Holder’s, or
24
the Franchise Dealer’s, failure to observe the terms and conditions of the insurance
coverage. BFA Holder shall indemnify and defend ExxonMobil for all these unrecoverable
claims, losses or damages, including without limitation any arising from Franchise
Dealers. Without limiting the general requirements of this Section 20, ExxonMobil may reject
any policies which contain deductibility clauses, conditions or exclusions, or that are
underwritten by insurance companies, that are unacceptable in ExxonMobil’s reasonable
determination. Upon rejection of a policy, BFA Holder promptly shall procure, and cause its
Franchise Dealer(s) to promptly procure, a policy with provisions and by an underwriter
reasonably acceptable to ExxonMobil. ExxonMobil’s receipt or acceptance of any policy or
evidence of insurance is not a waiver by ExxonMobil of any requirement under this
Section 20 or of its right to reject the policy as unacceptable and does not affect BFA
Holder’s, or its Franchise Dealer’s as the case may be, liability for claims, losses or damages
that are or would have been covered by BFA Holder’s, or such Franchise Dealer’s, full
compliance with this Section 20.
(f)
During the Term, each insurance policy and certificate of insurance of BFA Holder must
specify the insurance will not be terminated, canceled or materially changed without ten
(10) days’ prior written notice to ExxonMobil. If a policy or policies is/are terminated,
canceled or materially changed, BFA Holder shall promptly, prior to the termination,
cancellation or change of that policy, procure a new or substitute policy containing at least the
same coverage as the previous policy. The new policy must begin coverage prior to the
expiration of the previous policy or prior to the effective date of the material change, as
applicable. BFA Holder shall cause all of its Franchise Dealers to comply with this
Section 20(f) with respect to each insurance policy and certificate of insurance.
(g)
Prior to the Effective Date, and at any time upon request by ExxonMobil, BFA Holder shall
furnish to ExxonMobil, or its representative, certificates of insurance, specifying the types and
amounts of coverage in effect, expiration dates, confirmation that each policy complies with
the requirements of this Section (or the relevant section of BFA Holder’s franchise agreement
with the Franchise Dealer as the case may be), and specifying that no insurance shall be
terminated, canceled or materially changed during the Term without ten (10) days’ prior
written notice to ExxonMobil. Upon request by ExxonMobil, BFA Holder shall furnish to
ExxonMobil or its representatives copies of the required insurance policies.
(h)
Nothing in this Section 20 in any way limits or waives BFA Holder’s legal or contractual
responsibilities to ExxonMobil or others.
(i)
BFA Holder shall cause its Franchise Dealers, with respect to operations at Franchised
Branded Outlets, to carry insurance of the types and in the amounts, as are necessary and
customary for the operation of such Franchised Branded Outlets.
(j)
Without limiting any other remedy available to ExxonMobil, including termination or non-
renewal of this Agreement and the Franchise Relationship, ExxonMobil may debrand any
BFA Holder Branded Outlet(s) that fails to comply with the provisions of this Section 20.
(k)
If BFA Holder, for any reason, fails to procure and maintain required insurance satisfactory to
ExxonMobil, ExxonMobil may, at ExxonMobil’s election and upon notice to BFA Holder,
immediately procure the required insurance. Upon ExxonMobil’s request, BFA Holder
promptly shall furnish ExxonMobil with all information relating to BFA Holder or the
Businesses requested by ExxonMobil in connection with the procurement of any required
insurance. Upon written demand, BFA Holder shall immediately reimburse ExxonMobil for
the costs of procuring the insurance. ExxonMobil’s right to procure insurance under this
Section 20 may not be construed as an obligation by ExxonMobil to procure any insurance
and does not preclude ExxonMobil from exercising other rights or remedies it may have under
this Agreement including debranding of the BFA Holder Branded Outlet(s) in question and
termination or non-renewal of this Agreement and
25
the Franchise Relationship. ExxonMobil’s election not to procure any insurance under this
Section 20 may not be construed as:
(1)
A waiver of BFA Holder’s obligations under Sections 20 and 21; or
(2)
Limiting ExxonMobil’s right to exercise any other right or remedy, including
debranding of the BFA Holder Branded Outlet(s) in question and termination or non-
renewal of this Agreement and the Franchise Relationship.
(l)
ExxonMobil is entitled to the full coverage of any insurance procured by BFA Holder, its
Franchise Dealers or ExxonMobil under this Section 20 but in no event less than the minimum
coverage required by Section 20(a). The minimum limits specified in Section 20(a) do not
limit or affect ExxonMobil’s right to full insurance coverage or ExxonMobil’s rights under
Section 21. If BFA Holder does not own or lease transport to carry the Products, BFA Holder
shall cause any person engaged by BFA Holder to carry the Products at all times to maintain
insurance at levels required by the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act.
(m)
The insurance coverages specified in this Agreement are required to the extent they are
reasonably available as determined solely by ExxonMobil.

any indemnification or other similar obligation that BFA Holder or its Affiliates might have

amount of such fines), liabilities, claims, demands, and causes of action, at law or in equity
(including, without limitation, any arising out of the Comprehensive Environmental Response
Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
(RCRA), or the Clean Air Act) for BFA Holder’s failure to comply with Section 24(a), and
such failure by BFA Holder to comply shall also entitle ExxonMobil to terminate this
Agreement and the Franchise Relationship.

TERMINATION.
(a)
This Agreement and the Franchise Relationship shall terminate upon expiration of the Term.
(b)
This Agreement and the Franchise Relationship may be terminated by BFA Holder in the
event that ExxonMobil loses, or transfers to a third party (other than to an Affiliate of
ExxonMobil), the right to grant BFA Holder the right to use either of the Proprietary Marks
used to brand Branded Fuel that BFA Holder is using pursuant to this Agreement as of the
date ExxonMobil loses or transfers such right.
(c)
This Agreement and the Franchise Relationship may be terminated by ExxonMobil:
(1)
Upon transfer or assignment of this Agreement by BFA Holder contrary to
Section 22; or
(2)
If BFA Holder or any Key Person, manager, or stockholder makes any false or
materially misleading statement or representation (by act or by omission) which
induces ExxonMobil to enter into this Agreement, or which is relevant to the
Franchise Relationship between the parties hereto; or
(3)
If BFA Holder becomes insolvent; or
28
(4)
If BFA Holder fails to pay in a timely manner any sums when due hereunder (other
than any sums that are being contested by BFA Holder in good faith); or
(5)
If BFA Holder defaults in any of its obligations under this Agreement; or
(6)
If BFA Holder or any Key Person is declared incompetent to manage its property or
affairs by any court, or if BFA Holder or any Key Person is mentally or physically
disabled for three (3) months or more, to the extent that BFA Holder is unable to
provide for the continued proper operation of the Businesses; or
(7)
Under the circumstances described cause for termination by ExxonMobil in any
Section of this Agreement; or
(8)
If BFA Holder or any Key Person dies, to the extent that BFA Holder is unable to
provide for the continued proper operation of the Businesses; or
(9)
If BFA Holder or any Key Person, manager, or stockholder engages in fraud or
criminal misconduct relevant to the operation of the Businesses; or
(10)
If BFA Holder or any Key Person, manager, or stockholder is convicted of a felony
or of a misdemeanor involving fraud, moral turpitude or commercial dishonesty,
whether or not the crime arose from the operation of the Businesses; or
(11)
If BFA Holder breaches Section 3 by willfully committing an act of misbranding of
the Products or misuses the Proprietary Marks; or
(12)
If there occurs any other circumstance under which termination of a Franchise is
permitted under the provisions of the PMPA; or
(13)
ExxonMobil loses the right to grant the right to use any of the Proprietary Marks.
For purposes of section (4) and (5) above, BFA Holder shall be entitled to notice of any such
default from ExxonMobil and a reasonable time period in which to cure such default, before
ExxonMobil exercises its right to terminate this Agreement. Notwithstanding the previous
sentence, in the event of a recurring default by BFA Holder of an obligation under this
Agreement, ExxonMobil shall have no obligation to provide further notice or opportunities for
BFA Holder’s cure prior to exercising its right to terminate this Agreement.
(d)
If ExxonMobil has cause to believe that BFA Holder has engaged in fraudulent, unscrupulous
or unethical business practices (which shall include but not be limited to practices forbidden
by federal, state, county or local laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, regulations, rules, orders, or
permits), ExxonMobil may, at its sole discretion, give BFA Holder written notice of its
belief. Following the receipt of such notice, BFA Holder shall be given reasonable
opportunity to discuss the matter with ExxonMobil’s representatives. If following such
discussions (or reasonable opportunity therefor) and after such investigation of the matter as is
reasonable under the circumstances, ExxonMobil reaches a good faith conclusion that BFA
Holder has engaged in one or more such practices, ExxonMobil shall have the right to
terminate this Agreement.
(e)
Any termination of this Agreement by ExxonMobil shall be preceded by such notice from
ExxonMobil as may be required by law.
29
(f)
Upon the expiration of the Term or upon termination hereof, ExxonMobil shall have the right,
at its option, to enter, during normal operating hours, upon any premises at which the
Proprietary Marks are displayed (including, without limitation all BFA Holder Branded
Outlets), and to remove, paint out, or obliterate any signs, symbols or colors on said premises
or on the buildings or equipment thereof which in ExxonMobil’s opinion would lead a
purchaser to believe that the Products are being offered for sale at such premises. BFA Holder
shall cause its Franchise Dealers to grant ExxonMobil such a right of entry.
(g)
In the event this Agreement is terminated, ExxonMobil will suffer substantial damages which
are anticipated to be difficult and time consuming to prove with exactitude. Furthermore, both
parties are desirous of avoiding what they believe will be the disproportionate cost of possible
litigation and legal fees which a future dispute over the magnitude of such damages would
engender. The parties, therefore, have determined that if this Agreement is terminated, BFA
Holder must pay to ExxonMobil as liquidated damages (in addition to any damages
(liquidated or otherwise) payable to ExxonMobil under any other agreement between BFA
Holder and ExxonMobil), and not as a penalty, an amount rounded to the nearest dollar, equal
to ** times (the Initial Total Volume set forth on Exhibit 15) times (the number of years,
including any partial year, remaining in the initial fifteen-year Term after such
termination). Notwithstanding the foregoing, BFA Holder shall not pay to ExxonMobil any
liquidated damages under this Section 26(g) in the event that this Agreement is terminated:
(i) in connection with a market withdrawal under the provisions of the PMPA; (ii) by
ExxonMobil pursuant to Section 12; (iii) by BFA Holder pursuant to Section 26(b); or (iv) by
ExxonMobil pursuant to Section 26(c)(13) (except, in the case of this subsection (iv), in the
event ExxonMobil’s loss of the right to grant the right to use any of the Proprietary Marks is
attributable to BFA Holder or any of its Affiliates or franchisees).
(h)
Termination of this Agreement by either party for any reason shall not relieve the parties of
any obligation theretofore accrued under this Agreement.
27.
ACCORD.
The parties to this Agreement have discussed the provisions herein and find them fair and mutually
satisfactory, and further agree that in all respects the provisions are reasonable and of material
significance to the relationship of the parties hereunder, and that any breach of a provision by either
party hereto or a failure to carry out said provisions in good faith shall conclusively be deemed to be
substantial.
28.
NATURE AND MODIFICATION OF AGREEMENT.
(a)
In consideration of the granting and execution of this Agreement, the parties understand and
agree that they are not contractually obligated to extend or renew in any way the Term, and
that this Agreement shall not be considered or deemed to be any form of “joint venture” or
“partnership” at the premise(s) of BFA Holder or elsewhere (including without limitation any
BFA Holder Branded Outlet).
(b)
BFA Holder agrees to provide sixty (60) days’ prior written notice of any change in the name
or legal form of BFA Holder.
(c)
This Agreement may be modified only in writing signed by both parties or their duly
authorized agents. ExxonMobil hereby agrees that if it enters into any material amendment of
a brand fee agreement with any holder thereof operating in the Designated Geographies,
ExxonMobil shall offer such amendment in substantially the same form to all of brand fee
agreement holders then operating in the Designated Geographies.
29.
SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS.
Both parties expressly agree that it is the intention of neither party to violate statutory or common law
and that if any section, sentence, paragraph, clause or combination of same is in violation of any law,
such
30
sentences, paragraphs, clauses or combination of same shall be inoperative and the remainder of this
Agreement shall remain binding upon the parties hereto.
30.
ENTIRE AGREEMENT.
This writing is intended by the parties to be the final, complete and exclusive statement of this
Agreement about the matters covered herein.
31.
DISCLAIMER; NO RELIANCE.
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT EXXONMOBIL MAKES NO
REPRESENTATION, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, RELATING TO ITSELF OR ANY OF ITS
AFFILIATES, OR ANY OTHER MATTER, AND ANY SUCH OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR
WARRANTIES ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED. BFA HOLDER ACKNOWLEDGES
AND AGREES THAT (i) EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT,
EXXONMOBIL HAS NOT MADE ANY PROMISE, REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY,
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, AND (ii) BFA HOLDER HAS NOT EXECUTED OR AUTHORIZED
THE EXECUTION OF THIS AGREEMENT IN RELIANCE UPON ANY PROMISE,
REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN.
32.
DAMAGES.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT,
EXXONMOBIL (NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES) WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO ANYONE
FOR BUSINESS DISRUPTION, LOST PROFITS, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT.
33.
ATTORNEYS FEES.
If BFA Holder fails to pay any amount due under this Agreement or takes any action not requested in
writing by ExxonMobil for which BFA Holder, its Franchise Dealers or their respective customers
bring a claim or lawsuit against ExxonMobil or any of its Affiliates, BFA Holder agrees to pay
ExxonMobil’s (or any of its Affiliates’) costs, fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees)
thereby expended in ExxonMobil’s (or its Affiliates’) pursuit or defense of such matters.
34.
KEY PERSON CLAUSE.
If BFA Holder is a corporation, partnership or other entity form, it agrees to execute Exhibit 11 (“Key
Person Clause”) attached hereto and incorporated as part of this Agreement.
35.
RIGHT OF ENTRY.
In addition to any other rights of ExxonMobil under this Agreement, BFA Holder permits, and shall
cause its Franchise Dealers to permit, ExxonMobil, it’s Affiliates and their respective employees,
agents, vendors, contractors and representatives (a) to access, analyze and reproduce books, records,
correspondence, receipts, and data of BFA Holder or its Franchise Dealers pertaining to activities
undertaken pursuant to this Agreement, and (b) to enter, during normal operating hours, any BFA
Holder Branded Outlet(s) and other places where BFA Holder or any of its Franchise Dealers conduct
any Business to enforce ExxonMobil’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, including examining
(to include video, photographic, digital, audio and other recordings), testing and sampling of all
properties, tanks, containers, pumps and delivery truck tanks, and taking other action, for purposes of
preserving the integrity of the Proprietary Marks, performing product quality inspections and
determining BFA Holder’s compliance with this Agreement (including compliance with the terms of
Sections 3 and 4). If, in the sole opinion of ExxonMobil, any samples thus taken are not Products or
any document or record shows BFA Holder has failed to comply with its obligations hereunder (or
failed to cause any Franchise Dealer to so comply), ExxonMobil may, at its sole option, debrand the
BFA Holder Branded Outlet(s) in question or cancel and terminate this Agreement and the Franchise
Relationship. ExxonMobil shall provide notice to BFA Holder of entry at an License Branded Outlet,
except in the case of any such entry in connection with ExxonMobil’s product quality
inspections. BFA Holder shall preserve and shall cause its Franchise Dealers to preserve all books,
records, correspondence, receipts and data pertaining to activities undertaken pursuant to this
Agreement for a period of three (3) years. BFA Holder agrees to include necessary provisions in its
contracts with Franchise Dealers that shall assure access by ExxonMobil or its
31
representatives to the applicable records of the Franchise Dealers. BFA Holder’s obligation to preserve
all books and records, and ExxonMobil’s right to access and reproduce such books and records shall
extend for a period of three (3) years after the termination of this Agreement.
ExxonMobil shall not be liable to BFA Holder or any Franchise Dealer for any interference with any
Business of BFA Holder or its Franchise Dealers as a result of ExxonMobil’s entry on any BFA Holder
Branded Outlet(s) and other places where BFA Holder or any of its Franchise Dealers conduct any
Business, including any entry pursuant to Section 26(f) hereof.
36.
TERMS OF RENEWAL.
Nothing in this Agreement is to be construed as preventing ExxonMobil upon expiration of this
Agreement or any renewal of the Franchise Relationship, from offering BFA Holder terms and
conditions, in good faith and in normal course of business, which differ from or are in addition to those
in this Agreement.
37.
DRUG AND ALCOHOL.
(a)
In the event BFA Holder takes delivery of Products from ExxonMobil at ExxonMobil’s (or its
Affiliates’) facilities, the following provisions of this Section shall apply. BFA Holder and
BFA Holder’s employees, agents and contractors shall not enter ExxonMobil’s (or its
Affiliates’) facilities while under the influence of alcohol or any controlled substance. BFA
Holder, its employees, agents and contractors shall not use, possess, distribute or sell illicit or
unprescribed drugs in connection with any activity performed under this Agreement. BFA
Holder, its employees, agents and contractors shall not use, possess, distribute or sell alcoholic
beverages at any time while performing activities under this Agreement. BFA Holder has
adopted or will adopt its own policy to assure a drug and alcohol free workplace while
performing activities under this Agreement.
(b)
BFA Holder will remove any of its employees, agents or contractors from performing
activities hereunder any time there is suspicion of alcohol or drug use, possession or
impairment involving such employee, agent or contractor, and at any time an incident occurs
in performing activities hereunder where drug or alcohol use could have been a contributing
factor. ExxonMobil has the right to require BFA Holder to remove BFA Holder’s employees,
agents or contractors from ExxonMobil’s (or its Affiliates’) facilities at any time cause exists
to suspect alcohol or drug use by such employees, agents or contractors. In such cases, BFA
Holder’s employee, agent or contractor may be considered for return to ExxonMobil’s (or its
Affiliates’) facilities only if the BFA Holder certifies as a result of a for cause test, conducted
immediately after removal, that said employee, agent or contractor was in compliance with the
provisions of this Section. BFA Holder will not use an employee, agent or contractor to
perform activities hereunder who either refuses to take, or tests positive in, any alcohol or
drug test.
(c)
ExxonMobil may, without prior notice, search the person, possession and vehicles of BFA
Holder’s employees, agents and contractors that are on the premises owned or controlled by
ExxonMobil (or its Affiliates). Any person who refuses to cooperate with such search will be
removed from the premises and will not be allowed to return. BFA Holder will replace any of
its employees, agents or contractors at ExxonMobil’s request.
(d)
BFA Holder will comply with all applicable drug and alcohol related federal, state, county and
local laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, regulations, rules, orders, and permits (e.g.,
Department of Transportation Regulations, Department of Defense Drug-free Workplace
Policy, Drug-free Workplace Act of 1988). ExxonMobil shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to perform unannounced audits of BFA Holder’s alcohol and drug program to
verify that BFA Holder’s policy and its enforcement are acceptable to ExxonMobil.
38.
NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY.
Other than with respect to any indemnified party, the parties agree that no third party beneficiary rights
in favor of any person or entity are, nor are they intended to be, created by this Agreement.
32
39.
CLAIMS AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION.
(a)
Claims.
(1)
As used in this Section, “claim(s)” shall be construed broadly and shall include but
not be limited to a demand for money, property, equitable relief, or any interest,
whether fixed or contingent, to which a party asserts a right.
(2)
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all claims by BFA Holder or by
ExxonMobil arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the Franchise
Relationship between the parties created hereunder are barred unless asserted within
12 months after the event, act or omission to which the claim relates and in
accordance with the dispute resolution procedure set forth below.
(b)
Dispute Resolution Procedure.
(1)
All claims by BFA Holder or by ExxonMobil arising out of or relating to this
Agreement and the Franchise Relationship between the parties created hereunder
which cannot be settled through negotiation shall, unless the provisions of
Section 39(b)(1)(vi) apply, first be submitted to mediation administered by the
American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Commercial Mediation
Procedures before resorting to arbitration, or in the case of claims exclusively
governed by the PMPA, litigation. The following principles shall apply in respect of
any mediation hereunder:
(i)
Mediation under this provision shall not be available unless the claim(s) in
controversy exceeds the sum or value of $5,000.
(ii)
Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, the mediation shall last no longer
than two days.
(iii)
The mediator shall be appointed by the AAA keeping in mind the location
and convenience of the parties and the location of the BFA Holder Branded
Outlet(s) to which the claim relates. The parties prefer that any mediator
appointed hereunder be either an individual with judicial experience or one
who has been a member of the bar for at least 25 years.
(iv)
Each party shall include among its representatives in the mediation
proceeding an individual authorized to settle the claim(s).
(v)
Irrespective of which party commences the mediation procedure, the filing
fee required to be paid to the AAA shall be paid by ExxonMobil. All other
costs of the mediation, including any fees to be paid to the mediator, shall be
shared equally by the parties. Each party shall be responsible for all
expenses incurred by it in presenting its case, including any attorney’s fees.
(vi)
If either party believes it will be prejudiced or in any way adversely affected
by the mediation procedure because of delay, expense incurred, time
requirements or any other legitimate concern, that party may, by notice to
the other, proceed directly to arbitration.
(2)
All claims by BFA Holder or by ExxonMobil arising out of or relating to this
Agreement and the Franchise Relationship between the parties created hereunder,
except for claims exclusively governed by the PMPA and claims by ExxonMobil
seeking relief when time
33
is of the essence, including but not limited to claims of trademark misuse, claims
which relate to the existence of environmental concerns, claims relating to the
conduct on the BFA Holder Branded Outlet(s) of illegal activities, or actions seeking
to evict a dealer claimed to be in wrongful possession of the premises, which are not
resolved by negotiation or mediation, may be asserted only in an arbitration
proceeding to be conducted in accordance with the provisions of this Section 39(b).
(i)
Any such claims by BFA Holder or by ExxonMobil shall be resolved
exclusively by arbitration administered by the AAA under its Commercial
Arbitration Rules, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator
may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The decision of the
arbitrator shall be final and shall be binding on the parties.
(ii)
In the event a claim by BFA Holder raises issues that are governed
exclusively by the PMPA as well as issues that must be submitted to
arbitration hereunder, the claims under the PMPA shall be severed and
raised, if at all, in litigation. The remaining claims shall be resolved by
arbitration, as provided herein.
(iii)
The arbitration shall be held before a sole arbitrator who shall be selected
by agreement of the parties. If after forty-five (45) days from the
commencement of the arbitration the parties have been unable to agree on
the selection of an arbitrator, either party may ask the AAA to appoint a sole
arbitrator and the decision of the AAA in this respect shall be final and
binding. The parties prefer that any arbitrator agreed to between them or
appointed by the AAA hereunder be either an individual with judicial
experience or one who has been a member of the bar for at least 25 years.
(iv)
The arbitrator shall decide the matter before him or her in accordance with
the terms of this agreement, the applicable substantive law of the state
where the BFA Holder is located and any federal statutes which may be
applicable. The Federal Arbitration Act shall govern any arbitration
proceeding hereunder. All awards rendered hereunder shall be in writing
and on the request of either party shall state the reasoning on which the
award rests.
(v)
No claim asserted hereunder may be consolidated or asserted jointly with
the claim or claims of any other claimant or class of claimants and no
arbitration proceeding commenced hereunder may be consolidated or joined
with any other arbitration nor may any claim asserted hereunder be asserted
as part of any class action litigation or class action arbitration
proceeding. If, for any reason, an arbiter or a court determines that the
parties’ agreement prohibiting class claims is not enforceable, the class
claims must be brought as a class action litigation and not as a class action
arbitration.
(vi)
Irrespective of which party commences the arbitration procedure hereunder,
the filing fee required to be paid to the AAA shall be paid by
ExxonMobil. All other costs of the arbitration, including the fees to be paid
to the arbitrator, shall be shared equally by the parties. Each party shall be
responsible for all expenses incurred by it in presenting its case, including
any attorney’s fees.
(c)
Severability. It is agreed and understood that Section 39 of this Agreement shall apply in
respect of construction of this Section 39 and that a finding of invalidity or unenforceability of
any portion of this Section 39 shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other
portion.
34
40.
MISCELLANEOUS.
(a)
BFA Holder shall hold in confidence all business and technical information that is made
available to BFA Holder, directly or indirectly, by ExxonMobil or acquired by BFA Holder
during the Term of this Agreement, including any propriety information with respect to the
additives and related mix rates, (collectively “Confidential Information”), except:
(1)
information which is in or becomes, without fault of BFA Holder or any Franchise
Dealer, part of the public domain;
(2)
information which BFA Holder can show was received by BFA Holder from an
independent third party that is under no obligation to ExxonMobil regarding the
information;
(3)
information which BFA Holder can show was already in BFA Holder’s possession at
the time the information was made available to BFA Holder, directly or indirectly,
from ExxonMobil;
(4)
information required to be disclosed by Law (e.g., bills of lading or product transfer
documentation) or valid legal or regulatory process, following notice by BFA Holder
to ExxonMobil of the requirement to disclose and reasonable cooperation with any
attempt by ExxonMobil to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential
Information, to the extent such advance notice and cooperation is possible without
resulting in BFA Holder’s violation of applicable Law; and
(5)
information required to be disclosed to government tax authorities on a tax return or
other mandatory report filed with such authorities, but solely for the purpose of, and
to the extent necessary for, complying with applicable federal, state or local excise or
other tax laws.
BFA Holder also agrees that it shall not take any photographs, video or other recordings (including any
digital or audio recording) of ExxonMobil Oil Corporation’s or any of its Affiliate’s property without
ExxonMobil’s prior written consent.
(b)
WITHOUT LIMITING THE SCOPE OF THE FOREGOING SECTION 40(a), BFA
HOLDER SPECIFICALLY AGREES THAT IT WILL HOLD IN CONFIDENCE ALL
INFORMATION RELATING TO THE SOURCING OF THE PRODUCT DISTRIBUTED
PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT EXCEPT FOR NECESSARY COMMUNICATION
WITH BFA HOLDER’S SUPPLIERS OF BASE PRODUCT AS WELL AS ANY AND ALL
INFORMATION RELATING TO THE BRAND FEE. VIOLATION OF THIS PROVISION
SHALL CONSTITUTE GROUNDS FOR TERMINATION OF THE AGREEMENT.
(c)
BFA Holder shall not, without the prior written approval of ExxonMobil use the Confidential
Information which BFA Holder is required to keep confidential hereunder for any purpose
other than the performance of BFA Holder’s obligations under this Agreement.
(d)
ExxonMobil shall have no obligation of confidence with respect to any information disclosed
to ExxonMobil by BFA Holder, and ExxonMobil shall be free to use or disclose any or all of
the information contained in any drawing, record or other document to third parties without
accounting to BFA Holder therefor; unless, however, information is specifically covered by a
separate, written confidentiality agreement. In the absence of any such confidentiality
agreement, BFA Holder shall not place any restrictive notices on any information, no matter
the form of its recording, that BFA Holder provides to ExxonMobil hereunder. Should BFA
Holder place any
35
notices on any drawing, record or other document, ExxonMobil is hereby authorized to
nullify, obliterate, remove, or disregard those provisions.
(e)
BFA Holder shall establish and maintain precautions to prevent its employees, agents or
representatives and Franchise Dealers from making, receiving, providing, or offering
substantial gifts, entertainment, payments, loans, or other consideration to employees, agents,
or representatives of ExxonMobil for the purpose of influencing those persons to act contrary
to the best interests of ExxonMobil. This obligation shall apply to BFA Holder’s activities in
its relations with the employees of ExxonMobil and their families and/or third parties arising
from this Agreement.
(f)
BFA Holder agrees that all financial settlements, billings, and reports, if any, rendered to
ExxonMobil shall reflect properly the facts about all activities and transactions handled for the
account of ExxonMobil, which data may be relied upon as being complete and accurate in any
further recordings and reportings made by ExxonMobil for whatever purpose.
(g)
BFA Holder agrees to notify ExxonMobil promptly upon discovery of any instance where the
BFA Holder or BFA Holder’s employees, agents, representatives or Franchise Dealer fails to
comply with Sections 40(e) or (f).
(h)
BFA Holder acknowledges its receipt of the notices attached hereto as Exhibit 12. BFA
Holder has reviewed and understands the information set forth therein.

Youth Access to Tobacco
Dear ExxonMobil Branded Wholesaler:
As you have probably heard, ExxonMobil announced that it is further enhancing measures to curb sales of
tobacco products to minors at its company-operated stores. This is part of a mutual cooperation agreement that
the company has entered into with the Attorneys General of 43 states.
While the agreement, for the most part, addresses tobacco sales at ExxonMobil company-operated stores, we
also recognize that many of our branded wholesalers and dealers sell tobacco products and can benefit, should
they so choose, from the practices and programs we will be putting in place at our company stores. Those
practices will include, among others, access to signage, training, and compliance checks designed to limit sales
to underage customers. The sale of tobacco products is an important part of the overall customer offering of
many, if not most, of our branded wholesalers and dealers. We hope that our agreement and the information
that we share with you will ensure that those sales are made responsibly.
The new ExxonMobil branded wholesaler and dealer motor fuels franchise agreements contain provisions that
prohibit the sale of tobacco products to underage customers as prescribed in any local, state or federal
regulation. The agreements also require that branded wholesalers and dealers comply with all tobacco sales
laws and that they promptly inform us of any notices of violations received from authorities. These provisions
are material and significant to our franchise relationship and will be treated as such by ExxonMobil. We regard
compliance with tobacco sales laws as a matter of utmost importance. If you have executed a new ExxonMobil
branded wholesaler franchise agreement and you receive a notice of violation concerning the sale of tobacco at
one of your company operated facilities, please report receipt of that notice to:
ExxonMobil
Tobacco Sales Compliance - Branded Wholesaler Supervisor
c/o ExxonMobil BSCC
Suite 107
95 Foundry St.
Moncton, N.B.
E1C5H7, Canada
Recognizing the importance to your business of maintaining responsible sales of these products, we will work
closely with you to provide access to the practices and programs we are employing. Enclosed with this
communication is a copy of a booklet outlining ExxonMobil’s Tobacco Awareness Program for our company-
operated retail stores (CORS) . You may find the CORS retailing practices outlined in that booklet helpful in
your own efforts to prevent tobacco sales to minors. In the coming weeks, we will follow-up with more
information concerning the availability of programs you may wish to employ at your sites. In the meantime,
please contact your Territory Manager if you have any questions concerning the issue of youth access to tobacco
products. We encourage you to work with your dealers, store managers and sales associates to maintain the
highest level of compliance with tobacco sales regulations and that you support their efforts to prevent the sales
of tobacco products to minors. We also request that you provide a copy of this letter to each of your dealers and
confirm in writing that you have done so by signing this letter where indicated below. For your convenience we
have included a sample cover letter you can use for this communication.

Dear Dealer:
As you may have heard, ExxonMobil announced that it is further enhancing measures to curb sales to tobacco
products to minors at its company-operated stores. This is part of a mutual cooperation agreement that the
company has entered into with the Attorneys General of 43 states.
Enclosed with this letter is recent correspondence we have received from ExxonMobil on this important issue,
which you should review closely. Like ExxonMobil, we emphasize the importance of taking pro-active
measures to ensure compliance with laws prohibiting the sale of tobacco products to minors and with laws
governing tobacco sales generally. As we learn of programs and practices being used by ExxonMobil at its
company-operated stores and as we develop programs at our own stores, we will share them with you to help
you promote responsible tobacco sales at your location.
Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. If you have questions, please let us know.
Sincerely,
[BFA Holder]

Revised Summary of Title I of the Petroleum Marketing Practices Act
Tuesday, June 25, 1996
AGENCY:
Department of Energy.
ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY:
This notice contains a summary of Title I of the Petroleum Marketing Practices Act, as amended
(the Act). The Petroleum Marketing Practices Act was originally enacted on June 19, 1978, and was amended
by the Petroleum Marketing Practices Act Amendments of 1994, enacted on October 19, 1994. On August 30,
1978, the Department of Energy published in the Federal Register a summary of the provisions of Title I of the
1978 law, as required by the Act. The Department is publishing this revised summary to reflect key changes
made by the 1994 amendments.
The Act is intended to protect franchised distributors and retailers of gasoline and diesel motor fuel against
arbitrary or discriminatory termination or nonrenewal of franchises. This summary describes the reasons for
which a franchise may be terminated or not renewed under the law, the responsibilities of franchisors, and the
remedies and relief available to franchisees. The Act requires franchisors to give franchisees copies of the
summary contained in this notice whenever notification of termination or nonrenewal of a franchise is given.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Carmen Difiglio, Office of Energy Efficiency, Alternative
Fuels, and Oil Analysis (PO-62), U.S. Department of Energy, Washington, D.C. 20585, Telephone (202) 586-
4444; Lawrence Leiken, Office of General Counsel (GC-73), U.S. Department of Energy, Washington, D.C.
20585, Telephone (202) 586-6978.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title I of the Petroleum Marketing Practices Act, as amended, 15
U.S.C. §§2801-2806, provides for the protection of franchised distributors and retailers of motor fuel by
establishing minimum Federal standards governing the termination of franchises and the nonrenewal of
franchise relationships by the franchisor or distributor of such fuel. Section 104(d) (1) of the Act required the
Secretary of Energy to publish in the
Federal Register
a simple and concise summary of the provisions of Title
I, including a statement of the respective responsibilities of, and the remedies and relief available to, franchisors
and franchisees under that title. The Department published this summary in the
Federal Register
on August 30,
1978. 43 F.R. 38743 (1978).
In 1994 the Congress enacted the Petroleum Marketing Practices Act Amendments to affirm and clarify certain
key provisions of the 1978 statute. Among the key issues addressed in the 1994 amendments
are: (1) termination or nonrenewal of franchised dealers by their franchisors for purposes of conversion to
“company” operation; (2) application of state law; (3) the rights and obligations of franchisors and franchisees
in third-party lease situations; and (4) waiver of rights limitations. See H.R. REP. NO. 737, 103rd Cong., 2nd
Sess. 2 (1994), reprinted in 1994 U.S.C.C.A.N. 2780. Congress intended to: (1) make explicit that upon
renewal a franchisor may not insist on changes to a franchise agreement where the purpose of such changes is to
prevent renewal in order to convert a franchisee-operated service station into a company-operated service
station; (2) make clear that where the franchisor has an option to continue the lease or to purchase the premises
but does not wish to do so, the franchisor must offer to assign the option to the franchisee; (3) make clear that no
franchisor may require, as a condition of entering or renewing a franchise agreement, that a franchisee waive
any rights under the Petroleum Marketing Practices Act, any other Federal law, or any state law; and
(4) reconfirm the limited scope of Federal preemption under the Act. Id.
The summary which follows reflects key changes to the statute resulting from the 1994 amendments. The Act
requires franchisors to give copies of this summary statement to their franchisees when entering into an
agreement to terminate the franchise or not to renew the franchise relationship, and when giving notification of
termination or nonrenewal. This summary does not purport to interpret the Act, as amended, or to create new
legal rights.
In addition to the summary of the provisions of Title I, a more detailed description of the definitions contained
in the Act and of the legal remedies available to franchisees is also included in this notice, following the
summary statement.
12-3
Summary of Legal Rights of Motor Fuel Franchisees
This is a summary of the franchise protection provisions of the Federal Petroleum Marketing Practices Act, as
amended in 1994 (the Act), 15 U.S.C. §§2801-2806. This summary must be given to you, as a person holding a
franchise for the sale, consignment or distribution of gasoline or diesel motor fuel, in connection with any
termination or nonrenewal of your franchise by your franchising company (referred to in this summary as your
supplier).
You should read this summary carefully, and refer to the Act if necessary, to determine whether a proposed
termination or nonrenewal of your franchise is lawful, and what legal remedies are available to you if you think
the proposed termination or failure to renew is not lawful. In addition, if you think your supplier has failed to
comply with the Act, you may wish to consult an attorney in order to enforce your legal rights.
The franchise protection provisions of the Act apply to a variety of franchise agreements. The term “franchise”
is broadly defined as a license to use a motor fuel trademark which is owned or controlled by a refiner, and it
includes secondary arrangements such as leases of real property and motor fuel supply agreements which have
existed continuously since May 15, 1973, regardless of a subsequent withdrawal of a trademark. Thus, if you
have lost the use of a trademark previously granted by your supplier but have continued to receive motor fuel
supplies through a continuation of a supply agreement with your supplier, you are protected under the Act.
Any issue arising under your franchise which is not governed by this Act will be governed by the law of the
State in which the principal place of business of your franchise is located.
Although a State may specify the terms and conditions under which your franchise may be transferred upon the
death of the franchisee, it may not require a payment to you (the franchisee) for the goodwill of a franchise upon
termination or nonrenewal.
The Act is intended to protect you, whether you are a distributor or a retailer, from arbitrary or discriminatory
termination or nonrenewal of your franchise agreement. To accomplish this, the Act first lists the reasons for
which termination or nonrenewal is permitted. Any notice of termination or nonrenewal must state the precise
reason, as listed in the Act, for which the particular termination or nonrenewal is being made. These reasons are
described below under the headings “Reasons for Termination” and “Reasons for Nonrenewal.”
The Act also requires your supplier to give you a written notice of termination or intention not to renew the
franchise within certain time periods. These requirements are summarized below under the heading “Notice
Requirements for Termination or Nonrenewal.”
The Act also provides certain special requirements with regard to trial and interim franchise agreements, which
are described below under the heading “Trial and Interim Franchises.”
The Act gives you certain legal rights if your supplier terminates or does not renew your franchise in a way that
is not permitted by the Act. These legal rights are described below under the heading “Your Legal Rights.”
The Act contains provisions pertaining to waiver of franchisee rights and applicable State law. These provisions
are described under the heading “Waiver of Rights and Applicable State Law.”
This summary is intended as a simple and concise description of the general nature of your rights under the
Act. For a more detailed description of these rights, you should read the text of the Petroleum Marketing
Practices Act, as amended in 1994 (15 U.S.C. §§2801-2806). This summary does not purport to interpret the
Act, as amended, or to create new legal rights.
I. Reasons for Termination
If your franchise was entered into on or after June 19, 1978, the Act bars termination of your franchise for any
reasons other than those reasons discussed below. If your franchise was entered into before June 19, 1978, there
is no statutory restriction on the reasons for which it may be terminated. If a franchise entered into before
June 19, 1978, is terminated, however, the Act requires the supplier to reinstate the franchise relationship unless
one of the reasons listed under this heading or one of the additional reasons for nonrenewal described below
under the heading “Reasons for Nonrenewal” exists.
12-4
A. Non-Compliance with Franchise Agreement
Your supplier may terminate your franchise if you do not comply with a reasonable and important requirement
of the franchise relationship. However, termination may not be based on a failure to comply with a provision of
the franchise that is illegal or unenforceable under applicable Federal, for State or local law. In order to
terminate for non-compliance with the franchise agreement, your supplier must have learned of this non-
compliance recently. The Act limits the time period within which your supplier must have learned of your non-
compliance to various periods, the longest of which is 120 days, before you receive notification of the
termination.
B. Lack of Good Faith Efforts
Your supplier may terminate your franchise if you have not made good faith efforts to carry out the
requirements of the franchise, provided you are first notified in writing that you are not meeting a requirement
of the franchise and you are given an opportunity to make a good faith effort to carry out the requirement. This
reason can be used by your supplier only if you fail to make good faith efforts to carry out the requirements of
the franchise within the period which began not more than 180 days before you receive the notice of
termination.
C. Mutual Agreement To Terminate the Franchise
A franchise can be terminated by an agreement in writing between you and your supplier if the agreement is
entered into not more than 180 days before the effective date of the termination and you receive a copy of that
agreement, together with this summary statement of your rights under the Act. You may cancel the agreement
to terminate within 7 days after you receive a copy of the agreement, by mailing (by certified mail) a written
statement to this effect to your supplier.
D. Withdrawal From the Market Area
Under certain conditions, the Act permits your supplier to terminate your franchise if your supplier is
withdrawing from marketing activities in the entire geographic area in which you operate. You should read the
Act for a more detailed description of the conditions under which market withdrawal terminations are
permitted. See 15 U.S.C. §2802(b) (E).
E. Other Events Permitting a Termination
If your supplier learns within the time period specified in the Act (which in no case is more than 120 days prior
to the termination notice) that one of the following events has occurred, your supplier may terminate your
franchise agreement:
(1)
Fraud or criminal misconduct by you that relates to the operation of your marketing premises.
(2)
You declare bankruptcy or a court determines that you are insolvent.
(3)
You have a severe physical or mental disability lasting at least 3 months which makes you unable to
provide for the continued proper operation of the marketing premises.
(4)
Expiration of your supplier’s underlying lease to the leased marketing premises, if: (a) your supplier
gave you written notice before the beginning of the term of the franchise of the duration of the underlying lease
and that the underlying lease might expire and not be renewed during the term of the franchise; (b) your
franchisor offered to assign to you, during the 90-day period after notification of termination or nonrenewal was
given, any option which the franchisor held to extend the underlying lease or to purchase the marketing
premises (such an assignment may be conditioned on the franchisor receiving from both the landowner and the
franchisee an unconditional release from liability for specified events occurring after the assignment); and (c) in
a situation in which the franchisee acquires possession of the leased marketing premises effective immediately
after the loss of the right of the franchisor to grant possession, the franchisor, upon the written request of the
franchisee, made a bona fide offer to sell or assign to the franchisee the franchisor’s interest in any
improvements or equipment located on the premises, or offered the franchisee a right of first refusal of any offer
from another person to purchase the franchisor’s interest in the improvements and equipment.
(5)
Condemnation or other taking by the government, in whole or in part, of the marketing premises
pursuant to the power of eminent domain. If the termination is based on a condemnation or other taking, your
supplier must give you a fair share of any compensation which he receives for any loss of business opportunity
or good will.
(6)
Loss of your supplier’s right to grant the use of the trademark that is the subject of the franchise, unless
the loss was because of bad faith actions by your supplier relating to trademark abuse, violation of Federal or
State law, or other fault or negligence.
(7)
Destruction (other than by your supplier) of all or a substantial part of your marketing premises. If the
termination is based on the destruction of the marketing premises and if the premises are rebuilt or replaced by
your supplier and operated under a franchise, your supplier must give you a right of first refusal to this new
franchise.
12-5
(8)
Your failure to make payments to your supplier of any sums to which your supplier is legally entitled.
(9)
Your failure to operate the marketing premises for 7 consecutive days, or any shorter period of time
which, taking into account facts and circumstances, amounts to an unreasonable period of time not to operate.
(10)
Your intentional adulteration, mislabeling or misbranding of motor fuels or other trademark violations.
(11)
Your failure to comply with Federal, State, or local laws or regulations of which you have knowledge
and that relate to the operation of the marketing premises.
(12)
Your conviction of any felony involving moral turpitude.
(13)
Any event that affects the franchise relationship and as a result of which termination is reasonable.
II. Reasons for Nonrenewal
If your supplier gives notice that he does not intend to renew any franchise agreement, the Act requires that the
reason for nonrenewal must be either one of the reasons for termination listed immediately above, or one of the
reasons for nonrenewal listed below.
A. Failure To Agree on Changes or Additions To Franchise
If you and your supplier fail to agree to changes in the franchise that your supplier in good faith has determined
are required, and your supplier’s insistence on the changes is not for the purpose of converting the leased
premises to a company operation or otherwise preventing the renewal of the franchise relationship, your supplier
may decline to renew the franchise.
B. Customer Complaints
If your supplier has received numerous customer complaints relating to the condition of your marketing
premises or to the conduct of any of your employees, and you have failed to take prompt corrective action after
having been notified of these complaints, your supplier may decline to renew the franchise.
C. Unsafe or Unhealthful Operations
If you have failed repeatedly to operate your marketing premises in a clean, safe and healthful manner after
repeated notices from your supplier, your supplier may decline to renew the franchise.
D. Operation of Franchise is Uneconomical
Under certain conditions specified in the Act, your supplier may decline to renew your franchise if he has
determined that renewal of the franchise is likely to be uneconomical. Your supplier may also decline to renew
your franchise if he has decided to convert your marketing premises to a use other than for the sale of motor
fuel, to sell the premises, or to materially alter, add to, or replace the premises.
III. Notice Requirements for Termination or Nonrenewal
The following is a description of the requirements for the notice which your supplier must give you before he
may terminate your franchise or decline to renew your franchise relationship. These notice requirements apply
to all franchise terminations, including franchises entered into before June 19, 1978 and trial and interim
franchises, as well as to all nonrenewals of franchise relationships.
A. How Much Notice Is Required
In most cases, your supplier must give you notice of termination or non-renewal at least 90 days before the
termination or nonrenewal takes effect.
In circumstances where it would not be reasonable for your supplier to give you 90 days notice, he must give
you notice as soon as he can do so. In addition, if the franchise involves leased marketing premises, your
supplier may not establish a new franchise relationship involving the same premises until 30 days after notice
was given to you or the date the termination or nonrenewal takes effect, whichever is later. If the franchise
agreement permits, your supplier may repossess the premises and, in reasonable circumstances, operate them
through his employees or agents.
If the termination or nonrenewal is based upon a determination to withdraw from the marketing of motor fuel in
the area, your supplier must give you notice at least 180 days before the termination or nonrenewal takes effect.
12-6
B. Manner and Contents of Notice
To be valid, the notice must be in writing and must be sent by certified mail or personally delivered to you. It
must contain:
(1) A statement of your supplier’s intention to terminate the franchise or not to renew the franchise
relationship, together with his reasons for this action;
(2) The date the termination or non-renewal takes effect; and
(3) A copy of this summary.
IV. Trial Franchises and Interim Franchises
The following is a description of the special requirements that apply to trial and interim franchises.
A. Trial Franchises
A trial franchise is a franchise, entered into on or after June 19, 1978, in which the franchisee has not previously
been a party to a franchise with the franchisor and which has an initial term of 1 year or less. A trial franchise
must be in writing and must make certain disclosures, including that it is a trial franchise, and that the franchisor
has the right not to renew the franchise relationship at the end of the initial term by giving the franchisee proper
notice.
The unexpired portion of a transferred franchise (other than as a trial franchise, as described above) does not
qualify as a trial franchise.
In exercising his right not to renew a trial franchise at the end of its initial term, your supplier must comply with
the notice requirements described above under the heading “Notice Requirements for Termination or
Nonrenewal.”
B. Interim Franchises
An interim franchise is a franchise, entered into on or after June 19, 1978, the duration of which, when
combined with the terms of all prior interim franchises between the franchisor and the franchisee, does not
exceed three years, and which begins immediately after the expiration of a prior franchise involving the same
marketing premises which was not renewed, based on a lawful determination by the franchisor to withdraw from
marketing activities in the geographic area in which the franchisee operates.
An interim franchise must be in writing and must make certain disclosures, including that it is an interim
franchise and that the franchisor has the right not to renew the franchise at the end of the term based upon a
lawful determination to withdraw from marketing activities in the geographic area in which the franchisee
operates.
In exercising his right not to renew a franchise relationship under an interim franchise at the end of its term,
your supplier must comply with the notice requirements described above under the heading “Notice
Requirements for Termination or Nonrenewal.”
V. Your Legal Rights
Under the enforcement provisions of the Act, you have the right to sue your supplier if he fails to comply with
the requirements of the Act. The courts are authorized to grant whatever equitable relief is necessary to remedy
the effects of your supplier’s failure to comply with the requirements of the Act, including declaratory
judgment, mandatory or prohibitive injunctive relief, and interim equitable relief. Actual damages, exemplary
(punitive) damages under certain circumstances, and reasonable attorney and expert witness fees are also
authorized. For a more detailed description of these legal remedies you should read the text of the Act. 15
U.S.C. §§2801-2806.
VI. Waiver of Rights and Applicable State Law
Your supplier may not require, as a condition of entering into or renewing the franchise relationship, that you
relinquish or waive any right that you have under this or any other Federal law or applicable State law. In
addition, no provision in a franchise agreement would be valid or enforceable if the provision specifies that the
franchise would be governed by the law of any State other than the one in which the principal place of business
for the franchise is located.
12-7
Further Discussion of Title I-Definitions and Legal Remedies
I. Definitions
Section 101 of the Petroleum Marketing Practices Act sets forth definitions of the key terms used throughout the
franchise protection provisions of the Act. The definitions from the Act which are listed below are of those
terms which are most essential for purposes of the summary statement. (You should consult section 101 of the
Act for additional definitions not included here.)
A. Franchise
A “franchise” is any contract between a refiner and a distributor, between a refiner and a retailer, between a
distributor and another distributor, or between a distributor and a retailer, under which a refiner or distributor (as
the case may be) authorizes or permits a retailer or distributor to use, in connection with the sale, consignment,
or distribution of motor fuel, a trademark which is owned or controlled by such refiner or by a refiner which
supplies motor fuel to the distributor which authorizes or permits such use.
The term “franchise” includes any contract under which a retailer or distributor (as the case may be) is
authorized or permitted to occupy leased marketing premises, which premises are to be employed in connection
with the sale, consignment, or distribution of motor fuel under a trademark which is owned or controlled by
such refiner or by a refiner which supplies motor fuel to the distributor which authorizes or permits such
occupancy. The term also includes any contract pertaining to the supply of motor fuel which is to be sold,
consigned or distributed under a trademark owned or controlled by a refiner, or under a contract which has
existed continuously since May 15, 1973, and pursuant to which, on May 15, 1973, motor fuel was sold,
consigned or distributed under a trademark owned or controlled on such date by a refiner. The unexpired
portion of a transferred franchise is also included in the definition of the term.
B. Franchise Relationship
The term “franchise relationship” refers to the respective motor fuel marketing or distribution obligations and
responsibilities of a franchisor and a franchisee which result from the marketing of motor fuel under a franchise.
C. Franchisee
A “franchisee” is a retailer or distributor who is authorized or permitted, under a franchise, to use a trademark in
connection with the sale, consignment or distribution of motor fuel.
D. Franchisor
A “‘franchisor” is a refiner or distributor who authorizes or permits, under a franchise, a retailer or distributor to
use a trademark in connection with the sale, consignment, or distribution of motor fuel.
E. Marketing Premises
“Marketing premises” are the premises which, under a franchise, are to be employed by the franchisee in
connection with the sale, consignment, or distribution of motor fuel.
F. Leased Marketing Premises
“‘Leased marketing premises” are marketing premises owned, leased or in any way controlled by a franchisor
and which the franchisee is authorized or permitted under the franchise, to employ in connection with the sale,
consignment, or distribution of motor fuel.
G. Fail to Renew and Nonrenewal
The terms “fail to renew” and “nonrenewal” refer to a failure to reinstate, continue, or extend a franchise
relationship (1) at the conclusion of the term, or on the expiration date, stated in the relevant franchise, (2) at any
time, in the case of the relevant franchise which does not state a term of duration or an expiration date, or
(3) following a termination (on or after June 19, 1978) of the relevant franchise which was entered into prior to
June 19, 1978 and has not been renewed after such date.
12-8
II. Legal Remedies Available to Franchisee
The following is a more detailed description of the remedies available to the franchisee if a franchise is
terminated or not renewed in a way that fails to comply with the Act.
A. Franchisee’s Right to Sue
A franchisee may bring a civil action in United States District Court against a franchisor who does not comply
with the requirements of the Act. The action must be brought within one year after the date of termination or
nonrenewal or the date the franchisor fails to comply with the requirements of the law, whichever is later.
B. Equitable Relief
Courts are authorized to grant whatever equitable relief is necessary to remedy the effects of a violation of the
law’s requirements. Courts are directed to grant a preliminary injunction if the franchisee shows that there are
sufficiently serious questions, going to the merits of the case, to make them a fair ground for litigation, and if,
on balance, the hardship which the franchisee would suffer if the preliminary injunction is not granted will be
greater than the hardship which the franchisor would suffer if such relief is granted.
Courts are not required to order continuation or renewal of the franchise relationship if the action was brought
after the expiration of the period during which the franchisee was on notice concerning the franchisor’s intention
to terminate or not renew the franchise agreement.
C. Burden of Proof
In an action under the Act, the franchisee has the burden of proving that the franchise was terminated or not
renewed. The franchisor has the burden of proving, as an affirmative defense, that the termination or
nonrenewal was permitted under the Act and, if applicable, that the franchisor complied with certain other
requirements relating to terminations and nonrenewals based on condemnation or destruction of the marketing
premises.
D. Damages
A franchisee who prevails in an action under the Act is entitled to actual damages and reasonable attorney and
expert witness fees. If the action was based upon conduct of the franchisor which was in willful disregard of the
Act’s requirements or the franchisee’s rights under the Act, exemplary (punitive) damages may be awarded
where appropriate. The court, and not the jury, will decide whether to award exemplary damages and, if so, in
what amount.
On the other hand, if the court finds that the franchisee’s action is frivolous, it may order the franchisee to pay
reasonable attorney and expert witness fees.
E. Franchisor’s Defense to Permanent Injunctive Relief
Courts may not order a continuation or renewal of a franchise relationship if the franchisor shows that the basis
of the non-renewal of the franchise relationship was a determination made in good faith and in the normal
course of business:
(1) To convert the leased marketing premises to a use other than the sale or distribution of motor fuel;
(2) To materially alter, add to, or replace such premises;
(3) To sell such premises;
(4) To withdraw from marketing activities in the geographic area in which such premises are located; or
(5) That the renewal of the franchise relationship is likely to be uneconomical to the franchisor despite
any reasonable changes or additions to the franchise provisions which may be acceptable to the franchisee.
In making this defense, the franchisor also must show that he has complied with the notice provisions of the Act.
This defense to permanent injunctive relief, however, does not affect the franchisee’s right to recover actual
damages and reasonable attorney and expert witness fees if the nonrenewal is otherwise prohibited under the
Act.
Issued in Washington, D.C. on June 12, 1996.

Acting Assistant Secretary for Policy.
