Upon the occurrence of a Rescission Event, until the earlier of (i) the date on which TAC obtains the Alaska Approvals or (ii) the one (1)-year anniversary date of the First Closing Date, the Operating Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cause the rescission of each of the TAC Contribution, the General Partner Contribution and the Kenai Tankage Partnership Contribution by providing written notice to the other Parties, which notice, in any event, must be delivered before the earlier of (i) the date on which TAC obtains the Alaska Approvals or (ii) the (1)-year anniversary date of the First Closing Date. Upon receipt by TAC of the Operating Company’s written notice:

(a) Tesoro shall repay the loan specified in Section 2.2(c) to the General Partner to the extent the consideration is repaid pursuant to Section 5.2(b).
