In connection with any Demand Registration or any Piggyback Registration, the Company shall pay the following expenses incurred in connection with such registration: (i) filing fees with the SEC; (ii) fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities); (iii) printing expenses; (iv) fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities; (v) fees and expenses of counsel and independent certified public accountants for the Company and (vi) the reasonable fees and expenses of any additional experts retained by the Company in connection with such registration. In connection with the preparation and filing of a Registration Statement pursuant to Section 5.2(a), the Company will also pay the reasonable fees and expenses of a single legal counsel chosen by First Reserve. First Reserve shall pay any underwriting fees, discounts or commissions attributable to the sale of Registrable Securities and any other expenses of First Reserve. (f) Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Person may participate in any underwritten registered offering contemplated hereunder unless such Person (a) agrees to sell its securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements and this Registration Rights Agreement. 14 (g) Holdback Agreements. First Reserve agrees not to effect any public sale (including a sale pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act) of any Registrable Securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the 14 days prior to, and during the 120-day period beginning on, the effective date of any underwritten Demand Registration or any underwritten Piggyback Registration in which First Reserve participates, other than the Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to such registration statement. Section 5.3. Indemnification (a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless First Reserve, its general partner, the general partner of the general partner, and the officers and directors of such general partner, and each Person, if any, who controls First Reserve within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses arising out or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities or any preliminary Prospectus, or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses are caused by any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to First Reserve or the plan of distribution furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of First Reserve expressly for use therein; provided, that the foregoing indemnity with respect to any preliminary Prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of First Reserve if a copy of the most current Prospectus at the time of the delivery of the Registrable Securities was not provided to the purchaser, the Company had previously furnished First Reserve with a sufficient number of copies of the current Prospectus and such current Prospectus would have cured the defect giving rise to such loss, claim, damage or liability. The Company also agrees to indemnify any underwriters of the Registrable Securities, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such underwriters on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of First Reserve provided in this Section 5.3(a). (b) Indemnification by First Reserve. First Reserve agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers and directors, and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to First Reserve, but only with reference to information relating to First Reserve or the plan of distribution furnished in writing by or on behalf of First Reserve expressly for use in any Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary Prospectus. First Reserve also agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any underwriters of the Registrable Securities, their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of the Company provided in this Section 5.3(b). (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any Person in respect of which 15 indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 5.3(a) or Section 5.3(b), such Person (the "Indemnified Party") shall promptly notify the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the "Indemnifying Party") in writing and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of such proceeding and retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party to represent such Indemnified Party and any others the Indemnifying Party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) at any time for all such Indemnified Parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the Indemnified Parties, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Indemnified Parties. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Parties from and against any loss or liability (to the extent stated above) by reason of such settlement or judgment. (d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Registration Rights Agreement is unavailable to an Indemnified Party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company and First Reserve and the underwriters in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities. The relative fault of the Company and, First Reserve and the underwriters shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and First Reserve agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5.3(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 16 Section 5.4. Rule 144. The Company covenants that it will file any reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and that it will take such further action as First Reserve may reasonably request to the extent required from time to time to enable First Reserve to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to time, or any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the request of First Reserve, the Company will deliver to First Reserve a written statement as to whether it has complied with such reporting requirements. Section 5.5. Miscellaneous. (a) Notices. Any notice or other communication required or permitted under this Registration Rights Agreement shall be in writing or by telex, telephone or facsimile transmission with subsequent written confirmation, and may be personally served or sent by United States mail and shall be deemed to have been given upon receipt by the party notified. For purposes hereof, the addresses of the parties hereto (until notice of a change thereof is delivered as provided in this Section 5.5) shall be as set forth opposite each party's name on the signature page hereof. (b) Termination. This Registration Rights Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the date upon which the Company and First Reserve mutually agree in writing to terminate this Registration Rights Agreement and (ii) the first date on which there ceases to be any Registrable Securities. (c) Transfer of Registration Rights. The rights of Holders hereunder may be assigned by Holders to a transferee or assignee of any Registrable Securities provided that the Company is given written notice at the time of or within a reasonable time after said transfer, stating the name and address of such transferee or assignee and identifying the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned; and provided further that the registration rights granted by the Company in Section 5.2 may only be transferred to, and the definition of "Holders" shall only include, transferees who meet either of the following criteria: such transferee is (i) a holder of 100,000 or more shares of the Registrable Securities before giving effect to the transfer, (ii) a member of the First Reserve Group, or (iii) a bank, trust company or other financial institution, any pension plan, any investment company, any insurance company, any broker or dealer, or any other similar financial institution or entity, regardless of legal form. To the extent the rights under Section 5.2(a) of this Agreement are assigned to multiple Holders, all rights hereunder that may be exercised by the First Reserve Group may only be exercised by one or more Holders holding 50% or more of the Registrable Securities in the aggregate. (d) Waivers and Amendments; Noncontractual Remedies; Preservation of Remedies. This Registration Rights Agreement may be amended, superseded, canceled, renewed or extended, and the terms hereof may be waived, only by a written instrument signed by the Company and the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities or, in the case of a waiver, by the party waiving compliance. No delay on the part of any party in exercising a right, 17 power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any party of any such right, power or privilege, nor any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege, preclude a further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that any party may otherwise have at law or in equity. The rights and remedies of any party based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of any breach of any provision of this Registration Rights Agreement shall in no way be limited by the fact that the act, omission, occurrence or other state of facts upon which any claim of any such breach is based may also be the subject matter of any other provision of this Registration Rights Agreement (or of any other agreement between the parties) as to which there is no breach. (e) Severability. If any provision of this Registration Rights Agreement or the applicability of any such provision to a person or circumstances shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Registration Rights Agreement or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances other than those for which it is so determined to be invalid and unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each provision of this Registration Rights Agreement shall be valid and shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. To the extent permitted by applicable law each party hereto hereby waives any provision or provisions of law which would otherwise render any provision of this Registration Rights Agreement invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect. (f) Successors and Assigns. Subject to Section 5.5(c), this Registration Rights Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the successors and assigns of the parties hereto. (g) Other Registration Rights Agreements. Without the prior written consent of First Reserve, the Company will neither enter into any new registration rights agreements that conflict with the terms of this Registration Rights Agreement nor permit the exercise of any other registration rights in a manner that conflicts with the terms of the registration rights granted hereunder. ARTICLE 6 MISCELLANEOUS Section 6.1 Termination. Except as provided in Section 5.5(b) as to the Registration Rights Agreement (which shall be governed by such Section 5.5(b)) and this Section 6.1, the respective covenants and agreements of First Reserve and the Company contained in this Agreement will continue in full force and effect until the earliest to occur of either of the following: (i) the Termination Date, or (ii) the sale or other disposition in accordance with this Agreement by the First Reserve Group of Company Securities if after and giving effect to such sale or other disposition, the First Reserve Group beneficially owns in the aggregate Company Securities representing less than 5% of the Voting Power (including all exchangeable and convertible Company Securities on an "as-if" exchanged or converted basis). Upon any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.1, all of the obligations of the Company and First Reserve hereunder (other than the Registration Rights Agreement) shall terminate. 18 Section 6.2 Notices. Any notice or other communication required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing or by telex, telephone or facsimile transmission with subsequent written confirmation, and may be personally served or sent by United States mail and shall be deemed to have been given upon receipt by the party notified. For purposes hereof, the addresses of the parties hereto (until notice of a change thereof is delivered as provided in this Section 6.2) shall be as set forth opposite each party's name on the signature page hereof. Section 6.3 Waivers and Amendments; Noncontractual Remedies; Preservation of Remedies.

No delay on the part of any party in exercising a right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any party of any such right, power or privilege, nor any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege, preclude a further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that any party may otherwise have at law or in equity. The rights and remedies of any party based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of any breach of any provision of this Agreement (other than the Registration Rights Agreement, which shall be governed by Section 5.5(d)) shall in no way be limited by the fact that the act, omission, occurrence or other state of facts upon which any claim of any such breach is based may also be the subject matter of any other provision of this Agreement (or of any other agreement between the parties) as to which there is no breach. Section 6.4 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the applicability of any such provision to a person or circumstances shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement or the application of such provision to persons or circumstances other than those for which it is so determined to be invalid and unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each provision of this Agreement shall be valid and shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. To the extent permitted by applicable law each party hereto hereby waives any provision or provisions of law which would otherwise render any provision of this Agreement invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect. Section 6.5 Counterparts.
