(e) For purposes of this Section 7.16, the Company shall be deemed to have requested an Indemnitee to serve as fiduciary of an employee benefit plan whenever the performance by it of its duties to the Company also imposes duties on, or otherwise involves services by, it to the plan or participants or beneficiaries of the plan; excise taxes assessed on an Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan pursuant to applicable law shall constitute "fines" within the meaning of Section 7.16(a); and action taken or omitted by it with respect to any employee benefit plan in the performance of its duties for a purpose reasonably believed by it to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed to be for a purpose which is in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company. (f) In no event may an Indemnitee subject the Members to personal liability by reason of the indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement. (g) An Indemnitee shall not be denied indemnification in whole or in part under this Section 7.16 because the Indemnitee had an interest in the transaction with respect to which the indemnification applies if the transaction was otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement. (h) The provisions of this Section 7.16 are for the benefit of the Indemnitees, their heirs, successors, assigns and administrators and shall not be deemed to create any rights for the benefit of any other Persons. (i) No amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.16 or any provision hereof shall in any manner terminate, reduce or impair the right of any past, present or future Indemnitee to be indemnified by the Company, nor the obligations of the Company to indemnify any such Indemnitee under and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.16 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted.

(c) To the extent that, at law or in equity, an Indemnitee has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Company or to the Members, the Managing Member and any other Indemnitee acting in connection with the Company's business or affairs shall not be liable to the Company or to any Member for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict or otherwise modify the duties and liabilities of an Indemnitee otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to replace such other duties and liabilities of such Indemnitee. (d) Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.17 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the liability to the Company, the Members, the Managing Member, and the Member's directors, officers and employees under this Section 7.17 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted. Section 7.18 Resolution of Conflicts of Interest. (a) Unless otherwise expressly provided in the MLP Agreement, whenever a potential conflict of interest exists or arises between the Managing Member and the Company, or any of their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the MLP, any MLP Partner or any MLP Assignee, on the other, any resolution or course of action by the Managing Member and the Company, or their Affiliates in respect of such conflict of interest shall be permitted and deemed approved by all MLP Partners, and shall not constitute a breach of the MLP Agreement, of any agreement contemplated therein, or of any duty stated or implied by law or equity, if the resolution or course of action is, or by operation of this Agreement is deemed to be, fair and reasonable to the MLP. The Managing Member shall be authorized but not required in connection with its resolution of such conflict of interest to seek Special Approval of such resolution. Any such approval shall be subject to the presumption that, in making its decision, the Conflicts Committee acted on an informed basis, in good faith and in the honest belief that the action taken was in the best interests of the MLP and, in any proceeding brought by any MLP Limited Partner or by or on behalf of such MLP Limited Partner or any other MLP Limited Partners or the MLP challenging such approval, the Person bringing or prosecuting such proceeding shall have the burden of overcoming such presumption. Any conflict of interest and any resolution of such conflict of interest shall be conclusively deemed fair and reasonable to the MLP if such conflict of interest or resolution is (i) approved by Special Approval, (ii) on terms no less favorable to the MLP than those generally being provided to or available from unrelated third parties or (iii) fair to the MLP, taking into account the totality of the relationships between the parties involved (including other transactions that may be particularly favorable or advantageous to the MLP). 26 HOLLY LOGISTIC SERVICES, L.L.C. FIRST AMENDED AND RESTATED LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY AGREEMENT The Managing Member may also adopt a resolution or course of action that has not received Special Approval. The Managing Member (including the Conflicts Committee in connection with Special Approval), acting through the Company, shall be authorized in connection with its determination of what is "fair and reasonable" to the MLP and in connection with its resolution of any conflict of interest to consider (A) the relative interests of any party to such conflict, agreement, transaction or situation and the benefits and burdens relating to such interest; (B) any customary or accepted industry practices and any customary or historical dealings with a particular Person; (C) any applicable generally accepted accounting practices or principles; and (D) such additional factors as the Managing Member (including the Conflicts Committee) determines in its sole discretion to be relevant, reasonable or appropriate under the circumstances. In any proceeding brought by any MLP Limited Partner or by or on behalf of such MLP Limited Partner or any other MLP Limited Partners or the MLP alleging that such a resolution by the Managing Member (and not by the Conflicts Committee, whose resolution shall be conclusive as provided above), acting through the Company, is not fair to the MLP, such MLP Limited Partner shall have the burden of proof of overcoming such conclusion. Nothing contained in this Agreement, however, is intended to nor shall it be construed to require the Managing Member (including the Conflicts Committee), acting through the Managing Member, to consider the interests of any Person other than the MLP. In the absence of bad faith by the Managing Member, the resolution, action or terms so made, taken or provided by the Managing Member, acting through the Managing Member, with respect to such matter shall not constitute a breach of the MLP Agreement or any other agreement contemplated therein or a breach of any standard of care or duty imposed herein or therein or, to the extent permitted by law, under the Delaware LP Act or any other law, rule or regulation. (b) Whenever this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated hereby provides that the Managing Member or any of its Affiliates is permitted or required to make a decision (i) in its "sole discretion" or "discretion," that it deems "necessary or appropriate" or "necessary or advisable" or under a grant of similar authority or latitude, except as otherwise provided herein, the Managing Member or such Affiliate shall be entitled to consider only such interests and factors as it desires and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of, or factors affecting, the MLP, any MLP Limited Partner or any MLP Assignee, (ii) it may make such decision in its sole discretion (regardless of whether there is a reference to "sole discretion" or "discretion") unless another express standard is provided for, or (iii) in "good faith" or under another express standard, the General Partner or such Affiliate shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or different standards imposed by the MLP Agreement, any other agreement contemplated thereby or under the Delaware LP Act or any other law, rule or regulation. In addition, any actions taken by the General Partner or such Affiliate consistent with the standards of "reasonable discretion" set forth in the definition of Available Cash shall not constitute a breach of any duty of the General Partner to the MLP or the MLP Limited Partners. The General Partner shall have no duty, express or implied, to sell or otherwise dispose of any asset of the Partnership Group other than in the ordinary course of business. No borrowing by any Group Member or the approval thereof by the General Partner shall be deemed to constitute a breach of any duty of the General Partner to the MLP or the MLP Limited Partners by reason of the fact that the purpose or effect of such borrowing is directly or 27 HOLLY LOGISTIC SERVICES, L.L.C. FIRST AMENDED AND RESTATED LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY AGREEMENT indirectly to (A) enable distributions to the Partnership or its Affiliates to exceed 2.0% of the total amount distributed to all MLP Partners or (B) hasten the expiration of the Subordination Period or the conversion of any Subordinated Units into Common Units. (c) Whenever a particular transaction, arrangement or resolution of a conflict of interest is required under this Agreement to be "fair and reasonable" to any Person, the fair and reasonable nature of such transaction, arrangement or resolution shall be considered in the context of all similar or related transactions. Section 7.19 Other Matters Concerning the Managing Member. (a) The Managing Member may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. (b) The Managing Member may consult with legal counsel, accountants, appraisers, management consultants, investment bankers and other consultants and advisers selected by it, and any act taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon the opinion (including an Opinion of Counsel) of such Persons as to matters that the Managing Member reasonably believes to be within such Person's professional or expert competence shall be conclusively presumed to have been done or omitted in good faith and in accordance with such opinion. (c) The Managing Member shall have the right, in respect of any of its powers or obligations hereunder, to act through any of its duly authorized officers, a duly appointed attorney or attorneys-in-fact or the duly authorized officers of the Company. (d) Any standard of care and duty imposed by this Agreement or under the Act or any applicable law, rule or regulation shall be modified, waived or limited, to the extent permitted by law, as required to permit the Managing Member to act under this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated by this Agreement and to make any decision pursuant to the authority prescribed in this Agreement, so long as such action is reasonably believed by the Managing Member to be in, or not inconsistent with, the best interests of the Company.
