(c) Notwithstanding whether the Company or its affiliates makes any disclosure of this Agreement or its terms, you understand that it is a condition of the offer set forth in this Agreement that by accepting this offer, you agree to keep the terms, amounts set forth above and existence of this Agreement confidential (provided, however, that nothing contained in this paragraph shall preclude you from disclosing any such information concerning this letter (i) to your attorneys, accountants, tax and financial advisors or spouse provided that such individuals agree to keep such information completely confidential and not to disclose it to others; (ii) by court order or as required by law; or (iii) if necessary, to enforce the terms of this Agreement); and

in this Agreement, recapture by the Company of any monies already paid pursuant to this Agreement, after you have agreed to be bound by its terms, or other claims against you, both in the form of money damages and/or injunctive relief.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, an individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret, as defined by applicable law, that is made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law. An individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. An individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.

By agreeing to the terms of this Agreement, you are acknowledging and agreeing to the following additional terms:

(a)

That you resign from all offices you hold with any entity affiliated with the Company and CrossAmerica Partners LP, effective as of the Separation Date, and will either execute, or consent to our application of your electronic signature on, the resignation form attached as Exhibit A hereto.

You further agree that you will truthfully, forthrightly, and completely provide the information requested. You further agree that you will not be compensated in any way by the Company for your cooperation with the Company in connection with any litigation or other activity covered by this paragraph, except that you shall be reimbursed as permitted by law for any reasonable expenses that you incur in providing testimony or other assistance to the Company under this paragraph. If you are (i) specifically made aware of any non-public proceedings or nonpublic matters related to the Company, (ii) requested in writing by a third party to provide non-public information regarding the Company, or (iii) called by a third party as a witness to testify in any matter related to the Company, you will promptly notify the Company to give it a reasonable opportunity to respond.

In that regard, although you are no longer an officer in service of CrossAmerica, certain U.S. securities laws and regulations still may apply to you for a period of time following your resignation, including laws and regulations regarding insider trading and the applicability of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the related Form 4 filing requirements. If you have questions about these items, please consult with counsel and, if needed, contact the Company. If you conduct transactions in CrossAmerica Partners LP securities during a period of time in which you are covered by the Insider Trading Policy and/or the U.S. securities laws and regulations and it results in any violations, penalties, fines, investigations, legal expenses, or any other costs of any kind, all such costs will be your obligation to reimburse the Company.

(f)

That the provisions of this Agreement are both reasonable and enforceable, but the provisions are severable, and the invalidity of any one or more provisions shall not affect or limit the enforceability of the remaining provisions. Should any provision be held unenforceable for any reason, then such provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law. Notwithstanding the language of this paragraph, you will repay to the Company the sums paid to you pursuant to numbered paragraphs under “Supplemental Benefits” of this Agreement (less One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00)) upon written request by the Company should this Agreement (or any portions thereof) be found unenforceable;

(h)

That any and all actions and proceedings arising out of, connected with, or relating to this Agreement, whether brought by you or the Company, will be brought exclusively in the state and federal courts located in Lehigh County, Pennsylvania; and that you and the Company hereby expressly consent to the jurisdiction and venue of such courts and waive any defense based on the forum not being convenient;

Evan, if the terms of this Agreement, including the Release and Waiver Provisions set forth above, are acceptable to you, please sign, date and return the enclosed copy of this Agreement to Sharon Hall, Director of Human Resources, VUC Inc., 645 Hamilton Street, Suite 500, Allentown, PA 18101, within twenty-two (22) days of the receipt of this Agreement.

If you have any questions about the content or intent of this Agreement, please feel free to ask me. We wish you the best for your future endeavors.

Effective immediately, I hereby resign all positions that I currently hold as an officer of any subsidiary of CrossAmerica Partners LP, in each case, without the need of acceptance or further action by CrossAmerica Partners LP or any of its subsidiaries.
