Introductory Note

On October 1, 2018, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 29, 2018 (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”) and amended by an Amendment to Agreement of Plan of Merger, dated July 3, 2018 (“Amendment No. 1”), and a Second Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated September 18, 2018 (“Amendment No. 2”), by and among Marathon Petroleum Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“MPC”), Andeavor, a Delaware corporation, Mahi Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of MPC (“Merger Sub 1”), and Mahi LLC (n/k/a Andeavor LLC), a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of MPC (“Merger Sub 2”), Merger Sub 1 merged with and into Andeavor, with Andeavor surviving the first merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of MPC (the “First Merger”). Immediately after the consummation of the First Merger, Andeavor merged with and into Merger Sub 2 with Merger Sub 2 surviving the second merger (the “Surviving Company”) as a wholly owned subsidiary of MPC (the “Second Merger” and, together with the First Merger, the “Merger”).

As previously disclosed, under the terms of the Merger Agreement, subject to the proration, allocation and other limitations set forth in the Merger Agreement and the election materials separately provided to the applicable stockholders, stockholders of Andeavor had the option to elect to receive, for each share of Andeavor common stock held by them of record as of immediately prior to the effective time of the First Merger (the “Effective Time”) (except for excluded shares as more particularly set forth in the Merger Agreement):

 

   

1.87 shares of MPC common stock, with cash in lieu of any fractional share of MPC common stock (the “ Stock Consideration ”); or

 

   

$152.27 in cash (the “ Cash Consideration ”).

Based on the preliminary prorationing, MPC will pay approximately $3.5 billion in cash and issue 240 million shares of MPC common stock to former holders of Andeavor in connection with the Merger. The final prorationing and the final calculation of the number of shares of MPC common stock issued and the final cash consideration paid in connection with the Merger will be made post-closing after the expiration of the notice of guaranteed delivery period applicable to the cash/stock election.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, equity awards outstanding under Andeavor’s equity plans ceased to represent equity awards denominated in shares of Andeavor’s common stock and were converted into the right to receive shares of MPC common stock in an amount equal to the product of the number of shares of Andeavor common stock subject to such Andeavor award immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the exchange ratio, with performance-vesting awards converted into time-vesting awards based on the greater of target and actual performance; provided, however, that certain equity awards held by non-employee directors were converted into the right to receive the cash merger consideration.

The issuance of shares of MPC common stock in connection with the Merger Agreement was registered under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to MPC’s registration statement on Form S-4 (Registration No. 333-225244), declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 3, 2018 (the “Registration Statement”). The joint proxy statement/prospectus (the “Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) included in the Registration Statement contains additional information about the Merger and incorporates by reference additional information about the Merger from Current Reports on Form 8-K filed by MPC and Andeavor.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the Merger does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, Amendment No. 1 and Amendment No. 2, copies of which are attached as Exhibit 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 1.02

Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

The information set forth in Item 2.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 2.01

Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

The information set forth in the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 2.03

Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

As a result of the completion of the Merger, as of the effective time of the Second Merger, the Surviving Company assumed an aggregate principal amount of $3.375 billion in senior notes issued by Andeavor, consisting of $475 million aggregate principal amount of 5.375% Senior Notes due October 1, 2022; $850 million aggregate principal amount of 4.750% Senior Notes due December 15, 2023; $300 million aggregate principal amount of 5.125% Senior Notes due April 1, 2024 ; $750 million aggregate principal amount of 5.125% Senior Notes due December 15, 2026; $500 million aggregate principal amount of 3.800% Senior Notes due April 1, 2028; and $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.500% Senior Notes due April 1, 2048 (collectively, the “Andeavor senior notes”).


The Andeavor senior notes are the senior unsecured obligations of the Surviving Company. The indentures governing the Andeavor senior notes contain customary reporting and restrictive covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability of Andeavor and its subsidiaries to incur indebtedness secured by a lien on any principal property without securing the Andeavor senior notes on an equal and ratable basis and to consolidate or merge with another entity or transfer or sell all or substantially all of its assets. The indentures governing the Andeavor senior notes also contain customary events of default.

On August 29, 2018, MPC announced that, in connection with the Merger, it had commenced offers to exchange any and all outstanding Andeavor senior notes for (1) up to $3.375 billion aggregate principal amount of new notes issued by MPC having the same maturity and interest rates as the Andeavor senior notes and (2) cash. In addition, on the same date, Andeavor commenced consent solicitations from holders of each series of the Andeavor senior notes to amend the indentures governing the Andeavor senior notes to remove certain restrictive and reporting covenants and certain default provisions. The exchange offers and consent solicitations expired at 12:01 a.m., New York City time, on October 1, 2018 and are expected to close on October 2, 2018.

On September 13, 2018 and upon receiving the requisite consents, Andeavor entered into supplemental indentures to amend the indentures governing the Andeavor senior notes to remove the majority of these restrictive covenants and certain default provisions. The supplemental indentures became effective upon execution but will only become operative upon consummation of the exchange offers and consent solicitations.

As previously disclosed, on August 28, 2018, MPC entered into a $5 billion five-year revolving credit agreement and a $1.0 billion 364-day revolving credit agreement (collectively, the “new MPC credit agreements”). The new MPC credit agreements became effective upon the closing of the Merger. The new MPC $5 billion credit agreement replaced MPC’s previously effective $2.5 billion five-year revolving credit agreement, which was terminated in connection with the closing of the Merger and upon the new MPC credit agreements becoming effective. Also in connection with the closing of the Merger, Andeavor’s previously effective $3 billion revolving credit facility was terminated and the approximately $408 million outstanding under Andeavor’s revolving credit facility was repaid with cash on hand.

 

Item 5.02

Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

Effective October 1, 2018, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the MPC Board of Directors (the “MPC Board”) increased its size from ten members to twelve members and appointed Edward G. Galante, Gregory J. Goff, Kim K.W. Rucker and Susan Tomasky as directors (the “New MPC Directors”). The MPC Board determined that the New MPC Directors, other than Mr. Goff, met the independence requirements under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange and MPC’s independence standards. Mr. Goff and Ms. Tomasky have been appointed as Class I directors with terms expiring in 2021. Mr. Galante and Ms. Rucker have been appointed as Class II directors with terms expiring in 2019. Ms. Tomasky will serve as chair of the audit committee, Mr. Galante will serve as a member of the compensation committee, and all the New MPC Directors will serve as members of the MPC Board’s new Sustainability Committee. Upon such appointments and pursuant to MPC’s requirements under the Merger Agreement, Donna A. James and Frank M. Semple will no longer serve as members of the MPC Board. Neither of these departures were as a result of any disagreement with MPC, its management or the MPC Board. Ms. James served as our audit committee chair and as a member of our compensation committee. Ms. James will serve as a board observer and is expected to attend, in a non-voting capacity, certain meetings of the MPC Board and its committees, for which she will receive cash compensation at a rate of $300,000 per year. Mr. Semple will continue to serve on the board of directors of the general partner of MPLX LP, MPC’s sponsored master limited partnership. Additionally, Mr. Semple has been appointed to serve on the board of directors of the general partner of Andeavor Logistics LP.

As non-employee directors, Mr. Galante and Mses. Rucker and Tomasky will receive compensation in the same manner as MPC’s other non-employee directors. The terms of non-employee director compensation were disclosed in MPC’s definitive proxy statement for its 2018 Annual Meeting, filed with the SEC on March 15, 2018.

Mr. Goff was appointed by the MPC Board to the position of Executive Vice Chairman of MPC. Consequently, he will not receive compensation for his services as a director. As previously disclosed in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus, Mr. Goff’s compensation will be governed by the terms of a Letter Agreement with MPC that became effective in connection with the Merger, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.


In connection with Ms. Rucker’s prior service, she will be entitled to receive deferred payments relating to her termination of employment with Andeavor.

Effective October 1, 2018, the MPC Board appointed Donald C. Templin as President of Refining, Marketing and Supply. Prior to this appointment, Mr. Templin served as President of MPC.

 

Item 5.03

Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On October 1, 2018, in connection with the Merger, MPC amended its certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of MPC common stock from one billion to two billion, as approved by MPC stockholders at MPC’s September 24, 2018 special meeting of stockholders (the “Authorized Share Amendment”). Following the effectiveness of the Authorized Share Amendment, MPC filed a Restated Certificate of Incorporation which restated and integrates into a single document, but does not further amend, MPC’s certificate of incorporation, as amended to date. The foregoing descriptions of the Authorized Share Amendment and the Restated Certificate of Incorporation do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the full text of the Authorized Share Amendment and the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, which are attached as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 7.01

Regulation FD Disclosure.

On October 1, 2018, MPC issued a press release announcing the completion of the Merger. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The purpose of this Article FIVE is to limit the ownership and control of the Corporation by Non-U.S. Citizens to ensure that the Corporation remains qualified to own and operate vessels engaged in coastwise trade as a U.S. Citizen under the Maritime Laws. At no time shall Non-U.S. Citizens, individually or in the aggregate, be permitted to Own greater than the Permitted Percentage of any class of capital stock of the Corporation (“Shares”). If at any time Non-U.S. Citizens, individually or in the aggregate, become the Owners of more than the Permitted Percentage of any class of Shares, the Corporation shall have the power to take the actions prescribed in paragraphs 4, 5 and 6 of this Article FIVE. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Preferred Stock Designation for any series of Preferred Stock authorized in accordance with Article FOUR may provide that such series of Preferred Stock is excluded from the restrictions set forth in, and the application of, this Article FIVE.

3. Implementation . The Corporation is authorized to effect any and all measures and to make any and all determinations reasonably necessary or desirable (consistent with Applicable Laws and this Restated Certificate of Incorporation) to fulfill the purpose and implement the provisions of this Article FIVE, including without limitation: (a) requiring one or more Owner(s) of Shares to confirm his, her or its citizenship status and/or to provide citizenship certificates or other reasonable evidence of his, her or its citizenship status from time to time, and suspending voting, dividend and other distribution rights with respect to any Shares held by such Owner(s) until such confirmation and/or evidence is received; (b) maintaining the share transfer records of the Corporation in such a manner so that the percentage of any class of Shares that is Owned by U.S. Citizens and by Non-U.S. Citizens can be determined and confirmed; (c) obtaining, as a condition precedent to the transfer on the records of the Corporation, representations, citizenship certificates and/or other evidence as to the identity and citizenship status from all transferees (and from any recipient upon original issuance) of any Shares and, if such transferee (or recipient) is acting as a fiduciary or nominee for another Owner, such other Owner, and the registration of transfer (or original issuance) shall be denied upon refusal of such transferee (or recipient) to make such representations and/or furnish such citizenship certificates or other evidence; (d) recording in the share records of the Corporation and/or on registrations of transfer (or original issue) whether or not the Owner(s) of each issued and outstanding Share is a U.S. Citizen. The Corporation is authorized to take such other ministerial actions or make such interpretations as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to implement the purpose and the policy set forth in paragraph 2 of this Article FIVE.

4. Restrictions on Transfer . Any transfer, or attempted transfer, of any Share(s), the effect of which would be to cause one or more Non-U.S. Citizens, individually or in the aggregate, to Own Shares of any class of capital stock in excess of the Permitted Percentage, shall be void and ineffective as against the Corporation, and neither the Corporation nor its transfer agent or registrar shall be required to (a) register such transfer or purported transfer on the share records of the Corporation or (b) recognize the transferee or purported transferee thereof as a stockholder of the Corporation for any purpose whatsoever except to the extent necessary to effect any remedy available to the Corporation pursuant to this Article FIVE.

5. Suspension of Voting, Dividend and Other Distribution Rights of Non-U.S. Citizen Owned Shares . If on any date (including any record date), the number of Shares of any class of capital stock that is Owned, individually or in the aggregate, by Non-U.S. Citizens is in excess of the Permitted Percentage (such Shares owned by Non-U.S. Citizens in excess of the Permitted Percentage are referred to in this Restated Certificate of Incorporation as the “Excess Shares”), the Corporation shall determine which Shares Owned by Non-U.S. Citizens constitute the Excess Shares. The determination shall be made by reference to the date or dates that the Shares were acquired by Non-U.S. Citizens, starting with the most recent acquisition of Shares by a Non-U.S. Citizen and including, in reverse chronological order of acquisition, all other acquisitions of Shares of the same class by Non-U.S. Citizens from and after the acquisition of the Shares that first caused the Permitted Percentage to be exceeded. The determination of the Corporation as to which Shares constitute Excess Shares shall be conclusive. Shares deemed to constitute Excess Shares shall (so long as such excess exists) not be accorded any voting rights and shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of determining the vote required on any matter brought before the stockholders of the Corporation for a vote thereon. The Corporation shall (so long as such excess exists) withhold the payment of dividends, if any, and the sharing in any other distribution (upon liquidation or otherwise) in respect of Excess Shares. At such time as the Permitted Percentage is no longer exceeded, full voting, dividend and other distribution rights shall be restored to any Shares previously deemed to be Excess Shares that are no longer Excess Shares, and any dividend or other distribution with respect to such Shares that has been withheld shall be due and payable, without interest thereon, solely to the record holders of such Shares within a reasonable time after the Permitted Percentage is no longer exceeded.

6. Redemption of Excess Shares . The Corporation shall have the power, but no obligation, to redeem any Excess Shares subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a) the Corporation shall pay a redemption price per share for the Excess Shares to be redeemed equal to the sum of (i) the Fair Market Value of one Share of the same class on the date that the Excess Shares are called for redemption and (ii) the amount of any dividend or other distribution declared with respect to such Excess Shares prior to the date that they are called for redemption hereunder but which has been withheld by the Corporation pursuant to paragraph 5 of this Article FIVE, without interest thereon;

(b) the redemption price shall be paid in U.S. Dollars;

(c) the Corporation shall give a notice of redemption by first class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than ten (10) calendar days prior to the redemption date to each holder of record of the Excess Shares to be redeemed, at such holder’s address as the same appears on the share transfer records of the Corporation (or, in the absence of such address in the transfer records of the Corporation, at such other address as the Corporation may determine in its sole discretion). Each such notice shall state (i) the redemption date, (ii) the number of Excess Shares to be redeemed from such holder, (iii) the redemption price per Excess Share and the manner of payment thereof; and (iv) that dividends and other distributions, if any, on the Excess Shares to be redeemed will cease to accrue on such redemption date;

(d) from and after the redemption date and upon payment by the Corporation of the redemption price, dividends and other distributions, if any, on the Excess Shares called for redemption shall cease to accrue and such Shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights of the holders thereof as stockholders of the Corporation shall cease; and

 

6


(e) such other terms and conditions as the Board may determine in its sole discretion.

7. Citizenship of Officers and Directors . At no time shall (a) more than the minority of the number of Directors of the Corporation necessary to constitute a quorum of Directors for a meeting be Non-U.S. Citizens or (b) the Chairman of the Board or Chief Executive Officer (by whatever title) of the Corporation be a Non-U.S. Citizen.

8. NYSE Transactions . Nothing in this Article FIVE shall preclude the settlement of any transaction entered into through the facilities of the NYSE or any other national securities exchange (then registered as such pursuant to section 6 of the Exchange Act) or automated inter-dealer quotation system for so long as any class or series of the capital stock of the Corporation is listed on the NYSE or on such exchange or traded through such system. The fact that the settlement of any transaction occurs shall not negate the effect of any provision of this Article FIVE and any transferee in such a transaction shall be subject to all of the provisions and limitations set forth in this Article FIVE.

9. Severability . Each provision of this Article FIVE is intended to be severable from every other provision. If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Article FIVE is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of any other provision of this Article FIVE or this Restated Certificate of Incorporation shall not be affected, and such other provisions shall be construed as if the provisions held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable had been reformed to the extent required to be valid, legal and enforceable.

ARTICLE SIX

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

1. Authority of the Board . The business and affairs of the Corporation will be managed by or under the direction of the Board. In addition to the authority and powers conferred on the Board by the DGCL or by the other provisions of this Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Board hereby is authorized and empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the Corporation, subject to the provisions of the DGCL, this Restated Certificate of Incorporation, any Preferred Stock Designation and any Bylaws of the Corporation; provided, however , that no Bylaws hereafter adopted, or any amendments thereto, will invalidate any prior act of the Board that would have been valid if such Bylaws or amendment had not been adopted.

2. Number of Directors . The number of Directors which will constitute the whole Board shall be fixed from time to time exclusively by, and may be increased or decreased from time to time exclusively by, the affirmative vote of a majority of the Directors then in office (subject to such rights of holders of a series of shares of Preferred Stock to elect one or more Directors pursuant to any provisions contained in any Preferred Stock Designation), but in any event will not be less than three (3) or greater than twelve (12). In the event of any change in the authorized number of Directors, each Director then continuing to serve as such shall nevertheless continue as a Director of the class of which he or she is a member until the expiration of his or her current term, or the earlier of his or her death, resignation or removal. The Board shall specify the class to which a newly created directorship shall be allocated.

 

7


3. Classification and Terms of Directors. The Directors (other than those Directors, if any, elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock pursuant to the Preferred Stock Designation for such series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class), will be divided into three classes as nearly equal in size as practicable: Class I, Class II and Class III. Each Director will serve for a three year term expiring on the date of the third annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation following the annual meeting of stockholders at which that Director was elected; provided, however , that the Directors first designated as Class I Directors will serve for a term expiring on the date of the annual meeting of stockholders next following the end of the calendar year 2011, the Directors first designated as Class II Directors will serve for a term expiring on the date of the annual meeting of stockholders next following the end of the calendar year 2012, and the Directors first designated as Class III Directors will serve for a term expiring on the date of the annual meeting of stockholders next following the end of the calendar year 2013. Each Director will hold office until the annual meeting of stockholders at which that Director’s term expires and, the foregoing notwithstanding, serve until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. Any Director elected by the holders of a series of Preferred Stock will be elected for the term set forth in the applicable Preferred Stock Designation.

4. Election and Succession of Directors . Election of Directors need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws of the Corporation so provide. At each annual election, the Directors chosen to succeed those whose terms then expire will be of the same class as the Directors they succeed, unless, by reason of any intervening changes in the authorized number of Directors, the Board shall have designated one or more directorships whose term then expires as directorships of another class in order to more nearly achieve equality of number of Directors among the classes.

5. Removal of Directors. Subject to the rights, if any, of holders of Preferred Stock as set forth in any applicable Preferred Stock Designation, Directors of the Corporation may be removed from office only (a) by the Court of Chancery pursuant to Section 225(c) of the DGCL or (b) for cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least eighty percent (80%) of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation generally entitled to vote in the election of Directors, voting together as a single class. Except as Applicable Laws otherwise provide, “cause” for the removal of a Director will be deemed to exist only if the Director whose removal is proposed: (i) has been convicted, or has been granted immunity to testify in any proceeding in which another has been convicted, of a felony by a court of competent jurisdiction and that conviction is no longer subject to direct appeal; (ii) has been found to have been grossly negligent or guilty of misconduct in the performance of his or her duties to the Corporation in any matter of substantial importance to the Corporation by a court of competent jurisdiction; or (iii) has been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be mentally incompetent, which mental incompetency directly affects his or her ability to serve as a Director of the Corporation.

6. Vacancies . Subject to the rights, if any, of holders of Preferred Stock as set forth in any Preferred Stock Designation, newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of Directors and any vacancies on the Board resulting from death, resignation, removal or other cause will be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Directors remaining in office even if they represent less than a quorum of the Board, or by the sole remaining Director if

 

8


only one Director remains in office. Any Director elected in accordance with the preceding sentence will hold office for the remainder of the full term of the class of Directors in which the new directorship was created or the vacancy occurred and until that Director’s successor shall have been elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. Except as a Preferred Stock Designation may provide otherwise with respect to a Director elected pursuant such Preferred Stock Designation, no decrease in the number of Directors constituting the Board will shorten the term of any incumbent Director.

ARTICLE SEVEN

BYLAWS

The Board shall have the power to adopt, amend, repeal or restate the Bylaws of the Corporation. Any adoption, amendment, repeal or restatement of the Bylaws of the Corporation by the Board shall require the approval of a majority of the Directors then in office. The stockholders shall also have the power to adopt, amend, repeal or restate the Bylaws of the Corporation at any meeting of stockholders before which such matter has been properly brought in accordance with the Bylaws of the Corporation; provided, however , that, except for any amendment, repeal or restatement approved by the majority of the Directors then in office, in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation required by Applicable Laws or by this Certificate of Incorporation, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of Directors, voting together as a single class, shall be required to adopt, amend, repeal or restate any provision of the Bylaws of the Corporation.

ARTICLE EIGHT

AMENDMENTS OF THIS RESTATED CERTIFICATE

Notwithstanding anything in this Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the Corporation to the contrary, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least eighty percent (80%) of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of Directors, voting together as a single class, shall be required to alter, amend, repeal or restate any provision of this Restated Certificate of Incorporation; provided, however , that if any such alteration, amendment, repeal or restatement (except any alteration, amendment, repeal or restatement of Article SIX, this Article EIGHT or Article NINE) has been approved by the majority of the Directors then in office, then the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of Directors, voting together as a single class, will be sufficient to adopt such alteration, amendment, repeal or restatement. Any alteration, amendment, repeal or restatement to Article SIX, this Article EIGHT or Article NINE shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least eighty percent (80%) of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of Directors, voting together as a single class, regardless of whether or not such alteration, amendment, repeal or restatement is approved by the majority of the Directors then in office.

 

9


ARTICLE NINE

NO STOCKHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT

From and after the first date as of which the Corporation has a class or series of capital stock required to be registered under the Exchange Act, and subject to the rights, if any, of holders of Preferred Stock as set forth in a Preferred Stock Designation, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation must be effected at an annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation and may not be effected by any consent in writing by those stockholders.

ARTICLE TEN

PERSONAL LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS LIMITED

No Director of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or any of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a Director; provided, however , that the foregoing provision will not eliminate or limit the liability of a Director (a) for any breach of that Director’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (b) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (c) pursuant to section 174 of the DGCL, as the same exists or as that provision hereafter may be amended or modified from time to time, or (d) for any transactions from which that Director derived an improper personal benefit. If the DGCL is amended or modified after the filing of this Restated Certificate of Incorporation to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of Directors, then the liability of a Director, in addition to the limitation on personal liability provided in this Restated Certificate of Incorporation, will be limited to the fullest extent permitted by that law, as so amended or modified. Any repeal or modification of this Article TEN by the stockholders of the Corporation will be prospective only and will not have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of a Director arising out of or related to any event, act or omission that occurred prior to such repeal or modification.

ARTICLE ELEVEN

COMPROMISE OR ARRANGEMENT WITH CREDITORS OR STOCKHOLDERS

Whenever a compromise or arrangement is proposed between the Corporation and its creditors or any class of them or between the Corporation and its stockholders or any class of them, any court of equitable jurisdiction within the State of Delaware may, on the application in a summary way of the Corporation or of any creditor or stockholder thereof, or on the application of any receiver or receivers appointed for the Corporation pursuant to section 291 of the DGCL, or on the application of trustees in dissolution or of any receiver or receivers appointed for the Corporation pursuant to section 279 of the DGCL, order a meeting of the creditors or class of creditors or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of the Corporation, as the case may be, to be summoned in such manner as such court directs. If the majority in number representing three-fourths in value of the creditors or class of creditors, or of the stockholders or class of stockholders, of the Corporation, as the case may be, agree to any compromise or arrangement and to any reorganization of the Corporation as a consequence of that compromise or arrangement, such compromise or arrangement and such reorganization, if sanctioned by the court to which such application has been made, will be binding on all the creditors or class of creditors, or on all the stockholders or class of stockholders, of the Corporation, as the case may be, and also on the Corporation.

Dear Greg:

This letter (this “ Letter Agreement ”) is intended to memorialize our agreement regarding the terms of your employment with Marathon Petroleum Corporation (“ Parent ”) and your rights to certain compensation and benefits upon and following the closing date (the “ Effective Date ”) of the proposed acquisition (the “ Transaction ”) of Andeavor (the “ Company ”) by Parent pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof, between the Company, Parent, Mahi Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, and Mahi LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “ Merger Agreement ”). In the event that (i) your employment with the Company terminates for any reason prior to the Effective Date or (ii) the Merger Agreement is terminated without the closing of the Transaction, this Letter Agreement will be void ab initio and will have no further force or effect and none of the parties will have any obligations hereunder.

  C.

Long-Term Incentive Opportunity . You will be eligible to receive an annual target long-term incentive with a grant date value of $12,250,000.

3.

Termination of Employment . Provided that you remain employed with Parent through the first anniversary of the Effective Date, or if your employment is terminated by Parent or its affiliates prior to such date without Cause (as defined in the CIC Plan), upon your termination (other than your termination for Cause, as defined in the CIC Plan), you shall be entitled to receive the Change in Control Benefit (as defined in the CIC Plan) applicable to the Chief Executive Officer in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Company’s Amended and Restated Executive Severance and Change in Control Plan (the “ CIC Plan ”), and such termination shall be treated as a Qualifying Termination for purposes of your outstanding, unvested equity-based awards granted prior to the Effective Date. For the avoidance of doubt, you hereby waive your right to resign for Good Reason through the first anniversary of the Effective Date under the CIC Plan and under your outstanding, unvested equity-based awards granted prior to the Effective Date.

For the avoidance of doubt, this Letter Agreement will not affect your rights or benefits pursuant to the Company’s Executive Security Plan, Pension Plan, Executive Deferred Compensation Plan, or similar Company benefit plans.

Marathon Petroleum Corp. Announces Successful Completion of Andeavor Combination, Creating the Leading US Refining, Midstream and Marketing Company

FINDLAY, Ohio, Oct. 1, 2018 – Marathon Petroleum Corp. (NYSE: MPC) has closed the transaction in which it acquired all of the outstanding shares of Andeavor. As of this morning, Andeavor ceased to be publicly traded and its common stock discontinued trading on the New York Stock Exchange.

“This transformative transaction is a significant milestone in our company’s more than 130-year history,” said MPC Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Gary R. Heminger. “MPC is now the leading refining, midstream, and marketing company in the U.S., and is well-positioned for long-term growth and shareholder value creation.”

“We are excited to begin unlocking the extraordinary potential across our new platform, including approximately $1 billion of tangible annual run-rate synergies we expect within the first three years,” added Heminger. “We look forward to sharing more details around our plans at our upcoming December Investor Day.”

In accordance with “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, these statements are accompanied by cautionary


language identifying important factors, though not necessarily all such factors, that could cause future outcomes to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “design,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “goal,” “guidance,” “imply,” “intend,” “may,” “objective,” “opportunity,” “outlook,” “plan,” “position,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “prospective,” “pursue,” “seek,” “should,” “strategy,” “target,” “would,” “will” or other similar expressions that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond the company’s control and are difficult to predict. Factors that could cause MPC’s actual results to differ materially from those implied in the forward-looking statements include: the risk that the cost savings and any other synergies from the Andeavor transaction may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; disruption from the Andeavor transaction making it more difficult to maintain relationships with customers, employees or suppliers; risks relating to any unforeseen liabilities of Andeavor; future levels of revenues, refining and marketing margins, operating costs, retail gasoline and distillate margins, merchandise margins, income from operations, net income or earnings per share; the regional, national and worldwide availability and pricing of refined products, crude oil, natural gas, NGLs and other feedstocks; consumer demand for refined products; our ability to manage disruptions in credit markets or changes to our credit rating; future levels of capital, environmental or maintenance expenditures, general and administrative and other expenses; the success or timing of completion of ongoing or anticipated capital or maintenance projects; the reliability of processing units and other equipment; business strategies, growth opportunities and expected investment; MPC’s share repurchase authorizations, including the timing and amounts of any common stock repurchases; the adequacy of our capital resources and liquidity, including but not limited to, availability of sufficient cash flow to execute our business plan and to effect any share repurchases, including within the expected timeframe; the effect of restructuring or reorganization of business components; the potential effects of judicial or other proceedings on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows; continued or further volatility in and/or degradation of general economic, market, industry or business conditions; compliance with federal and state environmental, economic, health and safety, energy and other policies and regulations, including the cost of compliance with the Renewable Fuel Standard, and/or enforcement actions initiated thereunder; the anticipated effects of actions of third parties such as competitors, activist investors or federal, foreign, state or local regulatory authorities or plaintiffs in litigation; the impact of adverse market conditions or other similar risks to those identified herein affecting MPLX or Andeavor Logistics LP (ANDX); and the factors set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” in MPC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2017, and in MPC’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, filed with Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). We have based our forward-looking statements on our current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry. We caution that these statements are not guarantees of future performance and you should not rely unduly on them, as they involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that we cannot predict. In addition, we have based many of these forward-looking statements on assumptions about future events that may prove to be inaccurate. While our management considers these assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from the future performance that we have expressed or forecast in our forward-looking


statements. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements except to the extent required by applicable law.
