(ii) failure of the Partnership Group to have on the Closing Date any consent or governmental permit to the extent that such failure renders the Partnership Group unable to use or operate the Partnership Group Assets in substantially the same manner as they were operated immediately prior to the Closing Date; or
(iii) events or conditions associated with the Retained Assets.
(b) In addition to and not in limitation of the indemnification provided under Section 5.2, Partnership Group, jointly and severally, shall either cure, as applicable, or indemnify, defend, save and hold harmless the PBF Indemnitees from and against (I) any and all tax liabilities arising after the Closing Date or in connection with the closing of the Offering; and (II) Losses of any and every kind or character, known or unknown, fixed or contingent, suffered or incurred by any PBF Indemnitee by reason of or arising out of any events or conditions associated with the Partnership Group Assets after the Effective Time, except to the extent that the Partnership Group is indemnified with respect to any such Losses pursuant to Section 5.1 or Section 5.3(a).
(c) The party seeking indemnification pursuant to this Article V (the “Indemnified Party”) agrees that promptly after it becomes aware of facts giving rise to a claim for indemnification under this Article V, it will provide notice thereof in writing to the party from which the Indemnified Party seeks indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”), specifying the nature of and specific basis for such claim; provided, that failure to timely provide such notice shall not affect the right of the Indemnified Party’s indemnification under this Section 5.3, except in the event and only to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such delay or omission.
12
(d) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to control all aspects of the defense of (and any counterclaims with respect to) any claims brought against the Indemnified Party that are covered by the indemnification under this Section 5.3, including, without limitation, the selection of counsel, determination of whether to appeal any decision of any court and the settling of any such matter or any issues relating thereto; provided, however, that no such settlement shall be entered into without the consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of the Indemnified Party (with the concurrence of the Conflicts Committee, if the Indemnified Party is a Partnership Group Member) unless it includes a full release of the Indemnified Party from such matter or issues, as the case may be, and does not include the admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party, and involves anything other than the payment of money by the Indemnifying Party.
(e) The Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party, with respect to all aspects of the defense of any claims covered by the indemnification under this Section 5.3, including, without limitation, the prompt furnishing to the Indemnifying Party of any correspondence or other notice relating thereto that the Indemnified Party may receive, permitting the name of the Indemnified Party to be utilized in connection with such defense, the making available to the Indemnifying Party of any files, records or other information of the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party reasonably considers relevant to such defense and the making available to the Indemnifying Party, at no cost to the Indemnifying Party, of any directors, officers or employees of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that in connection therewith the Indemnifying Party agrees to use reasonable efforts to minimize the impact thereof on the operations of the Indemnified Party and further agrees to endeavor to maintain the confidentiality of all files, records and other information furnished by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this subsection (e). In no event shall the obligation of the Indemnified Party to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence be construed as imposing upon the Indemnified Party an obligation to hire and pay for counsel in connection with the defense of any claims covered by the indemnification set forth in this Section 5.3; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may, at its own option, cost and expense, hire and pay for counsel in connection with any such defense. The Indemnifying Party agrees to keep any such counsel hired by the Indemnified Party reasonably informed as to the status of any such defense, but the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to retain sole control over such defense.
(f) An Indemnified Party shall take all commercially reasonable steps to mitigate damages with respect to any claim for which it is seeking indemnification and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid any costs or expenses associated with such claim and, if such costs and expenses cannot be avoided, to minimize the amount thereof.
(g) In determining the amount of any Losses for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the gross amount of the indemnification will be reduced by (i) any insurance proceeds realized by the Indemnified Party, and such correlative insurance benefit shall be net of any incremental insurance premium that becomes due and payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of such claim and (ii) all amounts recovered by the
13
Indemnified Party under contractual indemnities from third parties. The Indemnified Party hereby agrees to use reasonable efforts to realize any applicable insurance proceeds or amounts recoverable under such contractual indemnities, provided, however, that the costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party in connection with such efforts shall be promptly reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party.
(h) The date on which the Indemnifying Party receives notification of a claim in accordance with Section 5.3(c) for indemnification shall determine whether such claim is timely made.
(I) NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY’S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATION UNDER THIS SECTION 5.3 COVER OR INCLUDE CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL OR SIMILAR DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS SUFFERED BY ANY OTHER PARTY ENTITLED TO INDEMNIFICATION UNDER THIS SECTION 5.3.
Section 5.4 Survival. All indemnification obligations under this Article V shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement, and shall remain in full force and effect.

Retained Environmental liabilities
On June 14, 2013, two administrative appeals were filed by the Sierra Club and Delaware Audubon regarding a permit Delaware City Refining Company LLC (“DCR”) obtained to allow loading of crude oil onto barges. The appeals allege that both the loading of crude oil onto barges and the operation of the Delaware City rail unloading terminal violate Delaware’s Coastal Zone Act. The first appeal is Number 2013-1 before the State Coastal Zone Industrial Control Board (the “CZ Board”), and the second appeal is before the Environmental Appeals Board and appeals Secretary’s Order No. 2013-A-0020. The CZ Board held a hearing on the first appeal on July 16, 2013, and ruled in favor of DCR and the State of Delaware and dismissed Appellants’ appeal for lack of standing. Sierra Club and Delaware Audubon have appealed that decision to the Delaware Superior Court, New Castle County, Case No. N13A-09-001 ALR, and DCR and the State have filed cross-appeals. Briefs have been filed in this appeal but no date has been set for a decision by the Superior Court. A hearing on the second appeal before the Environmental Appeals Board, case no. 2013-06, was held on January 13, 2014, and the Board ruled in favor of DCR and the State and dismissed the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. A written decision by the Board has been issued and the Appellants have the right to appeal the decision to Superior Court. If the Appellants in one or both of these matters ultimately prevail, the outcome may have an adverse material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
