the 30th day after the First Amendment Effective Date and (y) December 31, 2003:

            (i) executed counterparts of the Mortgages and Security Agreements
      granting the Administrative Agent a lien on the Acquired Assets located in

      the water bottom lease, coastal easements, and lease described on SCHEDULE

      in SECTION 4(a)(iv) below, and each of which shall be in form and
      substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and shall have been
      duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of the parties thereto;
      provided however, that if the grant of a Lien on any specific Post-Closing
      Mortgaged Asset or any portion thereof is expressly prohibited by, or
      would cause a default under or termination, avoidance or forfeiture of,
      any lease, contract, license or Law to which the MLP, the Borrower, or any
      of their Subsidiaries is a party or is subject, then the Loan Parties
      shall not be required to grant a Lien to the Collateral Agent on such
      Post-Closing Mortgaged Asset or portion thereof (as used herein, "SUBJECT
      LEASEHOLD" shall mean all of the Loan Parties' rights, titles and
      interests in, to and under that certain lease of approximately 17.4328
      acres of land between Stream Family Limited Partnership and Tesoro
      effective March 1, 2003, and the personal property of the Loan Parties

      deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent to perfect the rights, titles

      offices;

            (iii) opinions dated as of the date of delivery thereof, in form and
      substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, from (A)
      Baker Botts L.L.P., counsel to each Loan Party and the General Partner,
      and (B) local counsel to each Loan Party with respect to each deed of
      trust or mortgage executed by such Loan Party in connection with such
      Post-Closing Mortgaged Assets; and

            (iv) with respect to the Post-Closing Mortgaged Assets that are real
      estate Collateral, (A) a commitment to issue a mortgagee's title policy
      and a pro forma policy issued by a title company satisfactory to the
      Administrative Agent and containing such title exceptions and
      qualifications as are contained in the deeds or other instruments of
      conveyance under which the Loan Parties take title to such real estate
      Collateral in accordance with the Tesoro Asset Purchase Agreement,
      together with the payment of all premiums for the issuance of such title
      policy, (B) if required by the Administrative Agent, a survey (if such
      Mortgaged Assets are located in Texas, such survey shall be a Texas Board
      of Professional Land Surveyors Surveyor's Manual Category 1A Condition II
      Land Title Survey, and, if such Mortgaged Assets are located in Louisiana,
      such survey shall be a Class B Property Boundary Survey meeting the
      minimum surveying standards established by the Louisiana Professional
      Engineering and Land Surveying Board; provided however, that if the
      underwriter of the mortgagee's policies of title insurance requires
      surveys of a different type, the Borrower shall provide surveys meeting
      such requirements), and (C) such other certificates, authorizations,
      estoppels and waivers as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent
      pursuant to SECTION 6.18(b) of the Credit Agreement, in each case in form
      and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; provided, however,
      that it is hereby acknowledged and agreed by the Administrative Agent, the
      Lenders, and the Loan Parties that the Administrative Agent and the
      Lenders shall not require the delivery of, and that the Loan Parties shall
      be under no obligation to deliver, any certificate, landlord consent,
      subordination and non-disturbance agreement, tenant or other estoppel, or
      other third party consent, authorization or waiver in connection with the
      Acquired Assets and the pledge by the Borrower and the other Loan Parties
      thereof, except as set forth in SECTION 4(b) below).

      (b) In order to induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter
into this First Amendment, the Borrower hereby agrees to use reasonable
commercial efforts to obtain consents from the relevant Governmental Authorities
in the States of Louisiana and Texas with respect to the assignment by Tesoro to
the Borrower under and in accordance with the Tesoro Asset Purchase Agreement of
the water bottom lease and coastal easements described on SCHEDULE 4(b) attached
hereto.

      (c) The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders hereby
acknowledge and agree that (i) during the period from the Closing Date to and
including the date hereof the Loan Parties have been in compliance with the
requirements of SECTION 6.18 of the Credit Agreement, and (ii) subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions precedent contained in SECTION 3(a)(v) of this
Amendment, on the date hereof the Loan Parties shall be in compliance with the
requirements of SECTION 6.18 of the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby.

      SECTION 5. Representations and Warranties. In order to induce the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this First Amendment, the
Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and to each Lender
that:

      (a) This First Amendment, the Credit Agreement as amended hereby and each
Loan Document have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Borrower
and the applicable Loan Parties and constitute their legal, valid and binding
obligations enforceable in accordance with their respective terms (subject, as
to the enforcement of remedies, to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization,
insolvency, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally
and to general principles of equity).

      (b) Except as provided on SCHEDULE 5(b) hereto, the representations and
warranties set forth in ARTICLE V of the Credit Agreement and in the Collateral
Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the First
Amendment Effective Date, after giving effect to this First Amendment and the
Tesoro Acquisition, as if made on and as of the First Amendment Effective Date
except to the extent such representations and warranties relate solely to an
earlier date.

      (c) As of the date hereof, at the time of and after giving effect to this
First Amendment and the Tesoro Acquisition, no Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing.

      (d) Except as provided on SCHEDULE 4(b) hereto, no approval, consent,
exemption, authorization or other action by, or notice to, or filing with, any
Governmental Authority is necessary or required in connection with the execution
and delivery of this First Amendment, the performance by the Borrower or any
Loan Party of its obligations hereunder, or the Tesoro Acquisition. Each of this
First Amendment and the Tesoro Acquisition has been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate, partnership, or limited liability company action. The
execution, delivery and performance of this First Amendment and the documents
and transactions contemplated hereby, and the consummation of the Tesoro
Acquisition does not and will not (a) contravene the terms of the Borrower's or
any other Loan Party's Organization Documents, (b) conflict with or result in
any breach or contravention of, or result in creation of any Lien (other than
Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent) under, any document evidencing any
material Contractual Obligation to which the Borrower or any other Loan Party is
a party or any order, injunction, writ or decree of any Governmental Authority
to which the Borrower or any other Loan Party is subject, or (c) violate any
material provision and Law applicable to any Loan Party.

      (e) The Borrower knows of no reason why the consents from the relevant
Governmental Authorities in the States of Louisiana and Texas with respect to
the assignment by Tesoro to the Borrower under and in accordance with the Tesoro
Asset Purchase Agreement of the water bottom lease and coastal easements
described on SCHEDULE 4(b) hereto will not be obtained in due course by the
Borrower after the First Amendment Effective Date, and the Borrower does not
believe that such consents will contain any condition or requirement the
compliance with which would reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.

      SECTION 6. Costs. The Borrower agrees to pay on demand reasonable Attorney
Costs of the Administrative Agent and all other costs and expenses of the
Administrative Agent, in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery
of this First Amendment and any other documents executed in connection herewith.

      SECTION 7. Fees. The Borrower shall pay to each Lender on the First
Amendment Effective Date, a fee equal to 0.125% of the amount of each such
Lender's Committed Sum. The foregoing fees shall be paid to the Administrative
Agent, on behalf of each approving Lender.


                                       11

      SECTION 8. Effect of Amendment. (a) This First Amendment (i) except as
expressly provided herein, shall not be deemed to be a consent to the
modification or waiver of any other term or condition of the Credit Agreement or
of any of the instruments or agreements referred to therein and (ii) shall not
prejudice any right or rights which the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent or the Lenders may now have under or in connection with the Credit
Agreement, as amended by this First Amendment. Except as otherwise expressly
provided by this First Amendment, all of the terms, conditions and provisions of
the Credit Agreement shall remain the same. It is declared and agreed by each of
the parties hereto that the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, shall continue
in full force and effect, and that this First Amendment and such Credit
Agreement shall be read and construed as one instrument.

      (b) Each of the undersigned Guarantors hereby consents to and accepts the
terms and conditions of this First Amendment and the transactions contemplated
thereby, agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions thereof, and ratifies
and confirms that each Guaranty and each of the other Loan Documents to which it
is a party is, and shall remain, in full force and effect after giving effect to
this First Amendment. The Borrower and each of the other Loan Parties hereby
confirm and agree that all Liens and other security now or hereafter held by the
Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders as security for payment of the
Obligations are the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower and the
Loan Parties, remain in full force and effect, are unimpaired by this First
Amendment, and are hereby ratified and confirmed as security for payment of the
Obligations.

      SECTION 9. Miscellaneous. This First Amendment shall for all purposes be
construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York
and applicable federal law. The captions in this First Amendment are for
convenience of reference only and shall not define or limit the provisions
hereof. This First Amendment may be executed in separate counterparts, each of
which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one instrument. In proving this First Amendment, it
shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart.
This First Amendment may be delivered by facsimile transmission of the relevant
signature pages hereof.

      SECTION 10. Entire Agreement. THE CREDIT AGREEMENT (AS AMENDED BY THIS
FIRST AMENDMENT) AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR,
CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO
UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

      SECTION 11. Additional Further Assurances. The parties hereto each agree
to execute from time to time such further documents as may be necessary to
implement the terms of this First Amendment.
