Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Global GP LLC
Section 18-108 of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act provides that, subject to such standards and restrictions, if any, as are set forth in its limited liability company agreement, a limited liability company may, and shall have the power to, indemnify and hold harmless any member or manager or other person from and against any and all claims and demands whatsoever. The limited liability company agreement of Global GP LLC, the managing general partner of Global Partners LP (the "Company"), provides that the Company will, to the extent deemed advisable by the Company's board of directors, indemnify any person who is or was an officer or director of the Company, the record holder of the Company's voting shares, and any person who is or was an officer, director or affiliate of the record holder of the Company's voting shares, from liabilities arising by reason of such person's status, provided that the indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which such indemnitee believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such indemnitee's conduct was unlawful. Such liabilities include any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (joint or several), expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements and other amounts. Officers and directors of the Company are also indemnified by Global Partners LP, as described below.
Global Partners LP
Under our partnership agreement, in most circumstances, we will indemnify the following persons, to the fullest extent permitted by law, from and against all losses, claims, damages, or similar events:
II-1
Any indemnification under these provisions will only be out of our assets. Unless it otherwise agrees, our general partner will not be personally liable for, or have any obligation to contribute or loan funds or assets to us to enable us to effectuate, indemnification. We may purchase insurance against liabilities asserted against and expenses incurred by persons for our activities, regardless of whether we would have the power to indemnify the person against liabilities under our partnership agreement.
Subject to any terms, conditions or restrictions set forth in the partnership agreement, Section 17-108 of the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act empowers a Delaware limited partnership to indemnify and hold harmless any partner or other person from and against all claims and demands whatsoever.
GLP Finance Corp.
The bylaws of GLP Finance Corp. provide that each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any proceeding (as defined therein) by reason of the fact that such person or a person of whom such person is the legal representative, is or was or has agreed to become a director or officer of the corporation, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director or officer in any other capacity while serving or having agreed to serve as a director or officer, will be indemnified by the corporation to the fullest extent authorized by law against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred. This indemnification would under certain circumstances include indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act. The corporation is authorized to indemnify any such person only if such proceeding was authorized by the board of directors. The corporation is authorized to purchase insurance to protect itself and any person who is or was serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation.
Delaware
Section 18-108 of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act provides that a limited liability company may, and shall have the power to, indemnify and hold harmless any member or manager or other person from and against any and all claims and demands whatsoever.
The limited liability company agreements of each of Global Operating LLC, Global Companies LLC, Chelsea Sandwich LLC, Global Energy Marketing LLC and Global CNG LLC provide, to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law, that the companies shall indemnify and hold harmless any member, officer or employee of the companies from and against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements or and any other amounts arising from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, in which such indemnified person may be involved by reason of its status as a member or officer or employee of the companies.
Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with specified actions, suits and proceedings whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, other than a derivative action by or in the right of the corporation, if they acted in good faith and in a manner they
II-2
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification extends only to expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such action and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation's certificate of incorporation, bylaws, disinterested director vote, stockholder vote, agreement or otherwise.
The bylaws of Global Montello Group Corp. provide that each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any proceeding (as defined therein) by reason of the fact that such person or a person of whom such person is the legal representative, is or was or has agreed to become a director or officer of the corporations, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director or officer in any other capacity while serving or having agreed to serve as a director or officer, will be indemnified by the corporations to the fullest extent authorized by law against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred. This indemnification would under certain circumstances include indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act. The corporations are authorized to indemnify any such person only if such proceeding was authorized by the board of directors. The corporations are authorized to purchase insurance to protect themselves and any person who is or was serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporations.
The bylaws of Glen Hes Corp., Warren Equities, Inc. and Maryland Oil Company, Inc. provide that the corporation has the power to indemnify any person to the fullest extent permitted under Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or any successor provision or statute.
Massachusetts

The bylaws of Drake Petroleum Company, Inc. provide that the corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Massachusetts law, indemnify any person who is a party to a proceeding against all liability and expense incurred by reason to the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the corporation.
New Jersey
Section 14A: 3-5 of the New Jersey Business Corporation Act provides that any corporation organized for any purpose under any general or special law of this State shall have the power to indemnify a corporate agent against his expenses and liabilities in connection with any proceeding involving the corporate agent by reason of his being or having been such a corporate agent, other than a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation, if: (a) such corporate agent acted in good faith and
II-3
in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation; and (b) with respect to any criminal proceeding, such corporate agent had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

The certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Puritan Oil Company, Inc. of New Jersey, Inc. are silent as to indemnification.
New York
The bylaws of Warex Terminals Corporation provide that each director or officer of the corporation, whether or not then in office, and any person whose testator or intestate was such a director or officer, shall be indemnified by the corporation for the defense of, or in connection with, any threatened, pending or completed actions or proceedings and appeals therein, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in accordance with and to the fullest extent permitted by the Business Corporation Law of the State of New York or other applicable law, against, without limitation, all judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlements, and all expenses, including attorneys' and other experts' fees, costs and disbursements, actually and reasonably incurred by such person as a result of such action or proceeding, or actually and reasonably incurred by such person (a) in making an application for payment of such expenses before any court or other government body, (b) in otherwise seeking to enforce the indemnification provisions of the corporation's bylaws, or (c) in securing or enforcing such person's right under any policy or director or officer liability insurance provided by the corporation.

The by-laws of Global Partners Energy Canada ULC provide that, subject to the limitations in the Alberta Business Corporations Act and except in respect of an action by or on behalf of such corporation or body corporate to procure a judgment in its favor, the corporation shall indemnify a director or officer of the corporation, a former director or officer of the corporation or a person who acts or acted at the corporation's request as a director or officer of a body corporate of which the corporation is or was a shareholder or creditor, and his heirs and legal representatives, against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by him in respect of any civil, criminal or administrative action or proceeding to which he is made a party by reason of being or having been a director or officer of the Corporation or body corporate, if: (i) he acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Corporation, and (ii) in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, he had reasonable grounds for believing that his conduct was lawful.

Each undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this registration statement or any material change to such information in this registration statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(a), (1)(b) and (1)(c) above do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrants pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement;

II-8
Each undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of any registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
Each undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
Each undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee under each of its indentures to act under subsection (a) of Section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission in Section 305(b)(2) thereunder.
