Delek Logistics Partners, LP
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1 . Organization and Basis of Presentation
As used in this report, the terms "Delek Logistics Partners, LP," the "Partnership," "we," "us," or "our" may refer to Delek Logistics Partners, LP, one or more of its consolidated subsidiaries or all of them taken as a whole. References in this report to "Delek" refer collectively to Delek US Holdings, Inc. and any of its subsidiaries, other than (a) Delek Logistics Partners, LP and its subsidiaries and (b) its general partner (as hereinafter defined).
The Partnership is a Delaware limited partnership formed in April 2012 by Delek Logistics GP, LLC, a subsidiary of Delek and our general partner (our "general partner").
On February 10, 2014 , the Partnership, through its wholly owned subsidiary Delek Logistics Operating, LLC ("OpCo"), acquired from Delek (i) the refined products terminal (the “El Dorado Terminal”) located at Delek's El Dorado, Arkansas refinery (the "El Dorado Refinery") and (ii) 158 storage tanks and certain ancillary assets (the "El Dorado Tank Assets" and together with the El Dorado Terminal, the “El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets”) at and adjacent to the El Dorado Refinery (such transaction, the “El Dorado Acquisition”).
On March 31, 2015, the Partnership, through OpCo, acquired from Delek, two crude oil rail offloading racks, which are designed to receive up to 25,000 barrels per day (“bpd”) of light crude oil or 12,000 bpd of heavy crude oil, or any combination of the two, delivered by rail to the El Dorado Refinery and related ancillary assets (the “El Dorado Assets”) (such transaction, the "El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition").
On March 31, 2015, the Partnership, through its wholly owned subsidiary Delek Marketing & Supply, LP, acquired from Delek, a crude oil storage tank located adjacent to the Tyler Refinery (the "Tyler Crude Tank") and certain ancillary assets (collectively with the Tyler Crude Tank, the "Tyler Assets") (such transaction, the "Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition"). The Tyler Crude Tank has approximately 350,000 barrels of shell capacity and is expected to primarily support Delek's Tyler, Texas refinery (the "Tyler Refinery"). The Tyler Assets, together with the El Dorado Assets, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Logistics Assets."
The El Dorado Acquisition, the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition and the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition were accounted for as transfers between entities under common control. As entities under common control with Delek, we record the assets that Delek has contributed to us on our balance sheet at Delek's historical basis instead of fair value. Transfers between entities under common control are accounted for as if the transfer occurred at the beginning of the period, and prior years are retrospectively adjusted to furnish comparative information. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements and related notes of the Partnership have been retrospectively adjusted to include (i) the historical results of the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets, as owned and operated by Delek, for all periods presented through February 10, 2014 (the "El Dorado Predecessor"), (ii) the historical results of the El Dorado Assets, as owned and operated by Delek, for all periods presented through March 31, 2015 (the "El Dorado Assets Predecessor") and (iii) the historical results of the Tyler Assets, as owned and operated by Delek, for all periods through March 31, 2015 (the "Tyler Assets Predecessor"). The El Dorado Assets Predecessor, together with the Tyler Assets Predecessor, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Logistics Assets Predecessor." We refer to the historical results of the El Dorado Predecessor, the El Dorado Assets Predecessor and the Tyler Assets Predecessor collectively as our "Predecessors." See Note 2 for further information regarding the El Dorado Acquisition, the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition and the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 include the consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows and division equity of our Predecessors. The financial statements of our Predecessors have been prepared from the separate records maintained by Delek and may not necessarily be indicative of the conditions that would have existed or the results of operations if our Predecessors had been operated as unaffiliated entities. For example, our Predecessors did not record revenues for intercompany terminalling, throughput or storage services.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted, although management believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the financial information presented not misleading. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP applied on a consistent basis with those of the annual audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (our "Annual Report on Form 10-K"), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 26, 2015. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been included. All significant intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated in the consolidation. Such intercompany transactions do not include those with Delek or our general partner. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Operating results for the interim period should not be viewed as representative of results that may be expected for any future interim period or for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2 . Acquisitions
Acquisitions from Delek
El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition
On March 31, 2015 , the Partnership completed the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition and acquired the El Dorado Assets. The purchase price paid for the El Dorado Assets acquired was $42.5 million in cash financed with borrowings under the Partnership's amended and restated senior secured revolving credit facility.

In connection with the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition, the Partnership and Delek entered into (i) an asset purchase agreement, (ii) the Third Restated Omnibus Agreement (as defined in Note 14 ), (iii) a throughput agreement with respect to the El Dorado Assets, (iv) a lease and access agreement, and (v) an amended and restated site services agreement. See Note 14 for additional information regarding these agreements.

Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition

On March 31, 2015 , the Partnership completed the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition and acquired the Tyler Assets, including the Tyler Crude Tank. The purchase price paid for the Tyler Assets was $19.4 million in cash financed with borrowings under the Partnership's amended and restated senior secured revolving credit facility.
El Dorado Acquisition
On February 10, 2014 , the Partnership completed the El Dorado Acquisition and acquired the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets. The purchase price paid for the assets acquired was approximately $95.9 million in cash.
In connection with the El Dorado Acquisition, the Partnership and Delek entered into (i) an asset purchase agreement, (ii) the Omnibus Agreement (as defined in Note 14 ), (iii) a throughput and tankage agreement with respect to the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets, (iv) a lease and access agreement, and (v) a site services agreement.
Financial Results of the El Dorado Assets, the Tyler Assets and the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets
The acquisitions of the El Dorado Assets, the Tyler Assets and the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets, were considered transfers of businesses between entities under common control. Accordingly, the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition, the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition and the El Dorado Acquisition, were recorded at amounts based on Delek's historical carrying values as of each respective acquisition date, which were $7.6 million as of March 31, 2015 , $11.6 million as of March 31, 2015 and $25.2 million as of February 10, 2014 , respectively. Our historical financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the results of operations, financial position, cash flows and equity attributable to the El Dorado Assets, the Tyler Assets and the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets, as if we owned the assets for all periods presented. The results of the El Dorado Terminal are included in the wholesale marketing and terminalling segment, and the results of the El Dorado Assets, the Tyler Assets and the El Dorado Tank Assets, are included in the pipelines and transportation segment.
The results of the El Dorado Assets' and the Tyler Assets' operations prior to the completion of the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition and the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition on March 31, 2015 have been included in the El Dorado Assets Predecessor results and the Tyler Assets Predecessor results in the tables below. The results of the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets' operations prior to the completion of the El Dorado Acquisition on February 10, 2014 have been included in the El Dorado Predecessor results in the tables below. The results of the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets' operations subsequent to February 10, 2014 , have been included in the Partnership's results.
The tables on the following pages present our results of operations, the effect of including the results of the Logistics Assets and the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets and the adjusted total amounts included in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Acquisitions from Third Parties

Trucking Assets Acquisition

On December 17, 2014 , through a new subsidiary, DKL Transportation, LLC, we completed the purchase of substantially all of the assets of Frank Thompson Transport, Inc. ("FTT"), a company that primarily hauled crude oil and asphalt products by transport truck, to complement our existing assets and increase our overall third party business. The assets purchased from FTT include approximately 120 trucks and 200 trailers (the "FTT Assets").

Terminal and Pipeline Acquisition
On October 1, 2014 , we completed the purchase from an affiliate of Magellan Midstream Partners, LP of (i) a light products terminal in Mount Pleasant, Texas (the "Mount Pleasant Terminal"), (ii) a light products storage facility in Greenville, Texas (the "Greenville Storage Facility"), (iii) a 76-mile pipeline connecting the locations (the "Greenville-Mount Pleasant Pipeline") and (iv) finished product and other related inventory. The Mount Pleasant Terminal, the Greenville Storage Facility and the Greenville-Mount Pleasant Pipeline are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Greenville-Mount Pleasant Assets." The Mount Pleasant Terminal consists of approximately 200,000 barrels of light product storage capacity, three truck loading lanes and ethanol blending capability. The Greenville Storage Facility has approximately 325,000 barrels of storage capacity and is connected to the Explorer Pipeline System, which is a common carrier pipeline owned by a third party. We acquired the Greenville-Mount Pleasant Assets to complement our existing assets and provide enhanced logistical capabilities.

3 . Inventory
Inventories consisted of $4.5 million and $10.3 million of refined petroleum products as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. Cost of inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, determined on a first-in, first-out basis.

4 . Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

We entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement on November 7, 2012 , with Fifth Third Bank, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders. The agreement was amended and restated on July 9, 2013 (the "Amended and Restated Credit Agreement") and was most recently amended and restated on December 30, 2014 (the “Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”). Under the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the lender commitments were increased from $400.0 million to $700.0 million . The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement also contains an accordion feature whereby the Partnership can increase the size of the credit facility to an aggregate of $800.0 million , subject to receiving increased or new commitments from lenders and the satisfaction of certain other conditions precedent. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement matures on December 30, 2019 . While the majority of the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are substantially unchanged from the predecessor facility, among other things, changes were made to certain negative covenants, the financial covenants and the interest rate pricing grid. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains an option for Canadian dollar denominated borrowings.

Borrowings denominated in U.S. dollars bear interest at either a U.S. dollar prime rate , plus an applicable margin, or the London Interbank Offered Rate (" LIBOR "), plus an applicable margin, at the election of the borrowers. Borrowings denominated in Canadian dollars bear interest at either a Canadian dollar prime rate, plus an applicable margin, or the Canadian Dealer Offered Rate , plus an applicable margin, at the election of the borrowers. The applicable margin in each case varies based upon the Partnership's most recent leverage ratio calculation delivered to the lenders, as called for and defined under the terms of the credit facility. At March 31, 2015 , the weighted average interest rate for our borrowings under the facility was approximately 2.6% . Additionally, the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement requires us to pay a leverage ratio dependent quarterly fee on the average unused revolving commitment. As of March 31, 2015 , this fee was 0.3% per year.

The obligations under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement remain secured by first priority liens on substantially all of the Partnership's and its subsidiaries' tangible and intangible assets. Additionally, Delek Marketing & Supply, LLC ("Delek Marketing"), a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Delek, continues to provide a limited guaranty of the Partnership's obligations under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. Delek Marketing's guaranty is (i) limited to an amount equal to the principal amount, plus unpaid and accrued interest, of a promissory note made by Delek US in favor of Delek Marketing (the "Holdings Note"), and (ii) secured by Delek Marketing's pledge of the Holdings Note to our lenders under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2015 , the principal amount of the Holdings Note was $102.0 million , plus unpaid interest accrued since the issuance date.
As of March 31, 2015 , we had approximately $316.4 million of outstanding borrowings under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. Additionally, we had in place letters of credit totaling approximately $4.5 million , primarily securing obligations with respect to gasoline and diesel purchases. No amounts were drawn under these letters of credit at March 31, 2015 . Amounts available under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2015 were approximately $379.1 million .

5 . Income Taxes
For tax purposes, each partner of the Partnership is required to take into account its share of income, gain, loss and deduction in computing its federal and state income tax liabilities, regardless of whether cash distributions are made to such partner by the Partnership. The taxable income reportable to each partner takes into account differences between the tax basis and fair market value of our assets, the acquisition price of such partner's units and the taxable income allocation requirements under our partnership agreement.

6 . Net Income Per Unit
We use the two-class method when calculating the net income per unit applicable to limited partners because we have more than one participating class of securities. Our participating securities consist of common units, subordinated units, general partner units and incentive distribution rights ("IDRs"). The two-class method is based on the weighted-average number of common units outstanding during the period. Basic net income per unit applicable to limited partners (including subordinated unitholders) is computed by dividing limited partners’ interest in net income, after deducting our general partner’s 2% interest and incentive distribution rights, by the weighted-average number of outstanding common and subordinated units. Our net income is allocated to our general partner and limited partners in accordance with their respective partnership percentages after giving effect to priority income allocations for incentive distribution rights to our general partner, which is the holder of the incentive distribution rights pursuant to our partnership agreement, which are declared and paid following the close of each quarter.
Earnings in excess of distributions are allocated to our general partner and limited partners based on their respective ownership interests. Payments made to our unitholders are determined in relation to actual distributions declared and are not based on the net income allocations used in the calculation of net income per unit.
Diluted net income per unit applicable to common limited partners includes the effects of potentially dilutive units on our common units. At present, the only potentially dilutive units outstanding consist of unvested phantom unit awards under the Delek Logistics GP, LLC 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP"). Basic and diluted net income per unit applicable to subordinated limited partners are the same because there are no potentially dilutive subordinated units outstanding.

12


Our distributions earned with respect to a given period are declared subsequent to quarter end. Therefore, the table below represents total cash distributions applicable to the period in which the distributions are earned. The expected date of distribution for the distributions earned during the period ended March 31, 2015 is May 14, 2015 . The calculation of net income per unit is as follows (dollars in thousands, except per unit amounts):

7 . Equity
We had 9,417,189 common limited partner units held by the public outstanding as of March 31, 2015 . Additionally, as of March 31, 2015 , Delek owned a 59.9% limited partner interest in us, consisting of 2,799,258 common limited partner units and 11,999,258 subordinated limited partner units as well as a 95.9% interest in our general partner, which owns the entire 2.0% general partner interest consisting of 494,197 general partner units. Affiliates own the remaining 4.1% interest in our general partner. In accordance with our partnership agreement, Delek's subordinated units may convert to common units once specified distribution targets and other requirements have been met.

(1) Cash distributions include $61.9 million in cash payments for the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition and the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition. As an entity under common control with Delek, we record the assets that we acquire from Delek on our balance sheet at Delek's historical book basis instead of fair value. Additionally, any excess of cash paid over the historical book basis of the assets acquired from Delek is recorded within equity. As a result of the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition and the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition, our equity balance decreased $42.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015 .

Allocations of Net Income
Our partnership agreement contains provisions for the allocation of net income and loss to our unitholders and our general partner. For purposes of maintaining partner capital accounts, the partnership agreement specifies that items of income and loss shall be allocated among the partners in accordance with their respective percentage interests. Normal allocations according to percentage interests are made after giving effect to priority income allocations, if any, in an amount equal to incentive cash distributions allocated 100% to our general partner.

Incentive Distribution Rights
The following table illustrates the percentage allocations of available cash from operating surplus between our unitholders and our general partner based on the specified target distribution levels. The amounts set forth under “Marginal Percentage Interest in Distributions” are the percentage interests of our general partner and our unitholders in any available cash from operating surplus that we distribute up to and including the corresponding amount in the column “Total Quarterly Distribution per Unit Target Amount.” The percentage interests shown for our unitholders and our general partner for the minimum quarterly distribution are also applicable to quarterly distribution amounts that are less than the minimum quarterly distribution. The percentage interests set forth below for our general partner include its 2.0% general partner interest and assume that (i) our general partner has contributed any additional capital necessary to maintain its 2.0% general partner interest, (ii) our general partner has not transferred its incentive distribution rights, and (iii) there are no arrearages on common units.

8 . Equity Based Compensation
We incurred $0.1 million of unit-based compensation expense related to the Partnership during both the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 . These amounts are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. The fair value of phantom unit awards under the LTIP is determined based on the closing price of our common limited partner units on the grant date. The estimated fair value of our phantom units is amortized over the vesting period using the straight line method. All awards made through March 31, 2015 vest over a five -year service period unless such awards are amended in accordance with the LTIP. As of March 31, 2015 , there was $0.8 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested equity-based compensation arrangements, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.8 years.
9 . Equity Method Investments
In March 2015, the Partnership, through its indirect wholly owned subsidiary DKL Caddo, LLC ("DKL Caddo") became a member of Caddo Pipeline, LLC ("CP LLC") by entering into a limited liability company agreement (the “Caddo LLC Agreement”) with Plains Pipeline, L.P., an affiliate of Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. ("Plains"). CP LLC was formed to plan, develop, construct, own, operate and maintain a pipeline system and ancillary assets originating near Longview, Texas and extending to Shreveport, Louisiana (the "Caddo Pipeline System"). Pursuant to the terms of the Caddo LLC Agreement, DKL Caddo and Plains

16



each own a 50% membership interest in CP LLC. Pursuant to separate agreements, Plains will have primary responsibility for the construction of the Caddo Pipeline System, and, upon its completion, Plains will also have primary day-to-day responsibility for its operations.
In March 2015, the Partnership, through its indirect wholly owned subsidiary, DKL RIO, LLC ("DKL RIO"), became a member of Rangeland RIO Pipeline, LLC ("Rangeland RIO") by entering into a limited liability company agreement (the "Rangeland LLC Agreement") with Rangeland Energy II, LLC ("Rangeland"). Rangeland RIO was formed to develop, construct, operate and maintain a crude oil pipeline extending from Loving County, Texas, to Midland, Texas (the "RIO Pipeline"). Pursuant to the terms of the Rangeland LLC Agreement, DKL RIO owns 33% of Rangeland RIO, and Rangeland owns 67% . Rangeland will have primary day-to-day responsibility for the operations of the RIO Pipeline following completion of its construction.
The total projected investment in these two entities is approximately $91.0 million and will be financed through a combination of cash from operations and borrowings under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.  As of March 31, 2015, the investment in these joint ventures totaled $6.0 million and was accounted for using the equity method.
10 . Segment Data
We report our assets and operating results in two reportable segments: (i) pipelines and transportation and (ii) wholesale marketing and terminalling:
The assets and investments reported in the pipelines and transportation segment provide crude oil gathering, and crude oil, intermediate and finished products transportation and storage services to Delek's refining operations and independent third parties.
The assets in the wholesale marketing and terminalling segment provide marketing and terminalling services to Delek's refining operations and independent third parties.
Our operating segments adhere to the same accounting policies used for our consolidated financial statements. Our operating segments are managed separately because each segment requires different industry knowledge, technology and marketing strategies. Decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of operating performance are made based on this segmentation. Management measures the operating performance of each reportable segment based on segment contribution margin. Segment contribution margin is defined as net sales less cost of sales and operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization.
On February 10, 2014 and March 31, 2015 , we acquired the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets and the Logistics Assets, respectively, from Delek. Our historical financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the results of operations attributable to the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets and the Logistics Assets as if we owned the assets for all periods presented. The results of the El Dorado Terminal are included in the wholesale marketing and terminalling segment. The results of the El Dorado Tank Assets and the Logistics Assets are included in the pipelines and transportation segment.
The following is a summary of business segment operating performance as measured by contribution margin for the periods indicated (in thousands):

In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant & Equipment , we evaluate the realizability of property, plant and equipment as events occur that might indicate potential impairment.
11 . Fair Value Measurements
The fair values of financial instruments are estimated based upon current market conditions and quoted market prices for the same or similar instruments. Management estimates that the carrying value approximates fair value for all of our assets and liabilities that fall under the scope of ASC 825, Financial Instruments .
We apply the provisions of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements ("ASC 820"), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for its measurement and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 applies to our interest rate and commodity derivatives that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The standard also requires that we assess the impact of nonperformance risk on our derivatives. Nonperformance risk is not considered material at this time.
ASC 820 requires disclosures that categorize assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the observability of the inputs employed in the measurement. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market-corroborated inputs. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability reflecting our assumptions about pricing by market participants.
Over the counter commodity swaps, interest rate swaps and caps are generally valued using industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices, spot prices, interest rates, time value, volatility factors and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. The degree to which these inputs are observable in the forward markets determines the classification as Level 2 or 3. Our contracts are valued using quotations provided by brokers based on exchange pricing and/or price index developers such as Platts or Argus and are, therefore, classified as Level 2.

The derivative values above are based on analysis of each contract as the fundamental unit of account as required by ASC 820. Derivative assets and liabilities with the same counterparty are not netted where the legal right of offset exists. This differs from the presentation in the financial statements which reflects our policy under the guidance of ASC 815-10-45, Derivatives and Hedging - Other Presentation Matters ("ASC 815-10-45"), wherein we have elected to offset the fair value amounts recognized for multiple derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty where the legal right of offset exists.
Our policy under the guidance of ASC 815-10-45 is to net the fair value amounts recognized for multiple derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty and offset these values against the cash collateral arising from these derivative positions. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , $0.2 million and no cash collateral, respectively, was held by counterparty brokerage firms.
12 . Derivative Instruments
From time to time, we enter into forward fuel contracts to limit the exposure to price fluctuations for physical purchases of finished products in the normal course of business. We use derivatives to reduce normal operating and market risks with a primary objective in derivative instrument use being the reduction of the impact of market price volatility on our results of operations.
Typically, we enter into forward fuel contracts with major financial institutions in which we fix the purchase price of finished grade fuel for a predetermined number of units with fulfillment terms of less than 90 days.
From time to time, we may also enter into interest rate hedging agreements to limit floating interest rate exposure under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. Our initial credit facility required us to maintain interest rate hedging arrangements on at least 50% of the amount funded on November 7, 2012 under the credit facility, which was required to be in place for at least a three-year period beginning no later than March 7, 2013. Accordingly, effective February 25, 2013 , we entered into interest rate hedges in the form of a LIBOR interest rate cap for a term of three years for a total notional amount of $45.0 million , thereby meeting the requirements in effect at that time. These requirements were eliminated in connection with the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement in July 2013, but the interest rate hedge remains in place in accordance with its terms.

The tables below present the fair value of our derivative instruments, as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014 , we did not elect hedge treatment for these derivative positions. As a result, all changes in fair value are marked to market in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income.

13 . Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
In the ordinary conduct of our business, we are from time to time subject to lawsuits, investigations and claims, including environmental claims and employee-related matters. Although we cannot predict with certainty the ultimate resolution of lawsuits, investigations and claims asserted against us, including civil penalties or other enforcement actions, we do not believe that any currently pending legal proceedings to which we are a party will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Rate Regulation of Petroleum Pipelines
The rates and terms and conditions of service on certain of our pipelines are subject to regulation by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) under the Interstate Commerce Act (“ICA”) and by the state regulatory commissions in the states in which we transport crude oil and refined products, including the Railroad Commission of Texas, the Louisiana Public Service Commission, and the Arkansas Public Service Commission. Certain of our pipeline systems are subject to such regulation and have filed tariffs with the appropriate authorities. We also comply with the reporting requirements for these pipelines. Other of our pipelines have received a waiver from the application of FERC's tariff requirements but comply with other applicable regulatory requirements.
FERC regulates interstate transportation under the ICA, the Energy Policy Act of 1992 and the rules and regulations promulgated under those laws. The ICA and its implementing regulations require that tariff rates for interstate service on oil pipelines, including pipelines that transport crude oil and refined products in interstate commerce (collectively referred to as “petroleum pipelines”), be just and reasonable and non-discriminatory and that such rates and terms and conditions of service be filed with FERC. Under the ICA, shippers may challenge new or existing rates or services. FERC is authorized to suspend the

21


effectiveness of a challenged rate for up to seven months, though rates are typically not suspended for the maximum allowable period. Tariff rates are typically contractually subject to increase or decrease annually, by the amount of any change in various inflation-based indices, including the FERC oil pipeline index, the consumer price index and the producer price index; provided, however, that in no event will the fees be adjusted below the amount initially set forth in the applicable agreement.
While FERC regulates rates for shipments of crude oil or refined products in interstate commerce, state agencies may regulate rates and service for shipments in intrastate commerce. We own pipeline assets in Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana, and accordingly, such assets may be subject to additional regulation by the applicable governmental authorities in those states.
Environmental Health and Safety
We are subject to various federal, state and local environmental and safety laws enforced by agencies including the United States Environmental Protection Agency, the United States Department of Transportation, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, the Texas Railroad Commission, the Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality, the Louisiana Oil Spill Coordinating Office, the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality, the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries and the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, as well as other state and federal agencies. Numerous permits or other authorizations are required under these laws for the operation of our terminals, pipelines, and related operations, and such permits and authorizations may be subject to revocation, modification and renewal.
These laws and permits raise potential exposure to future claims and lawsuits involving environmental and safety matters, which could include soil and water contamination, air pollution, personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by substances we manufactured, stored, transported, handled, used, released or disposed of, or that relate to pre-existing conditions for which we have assumed responsibility. We believe that our current operations are in substantial compliance with existing environmental and safety requirements. However, there have been and will continue to be ongoing discussions about environmental and safety matters between us and federal and state authorities, including notices of violations, citations and other enforcement actions, some of which have resulted or may result in changes to operating procedures and in capital expenditures. While it is often difficult to quantify future environmental or safety related expenditures, we anticipate that continuing capital investments and changes in operating procedures will be required for the foreseeable future to comply with existing and new requirements, as well as evolving interpretations and more strict enforcement of existing laws and regulations.
Crude Oil Releases
We have detected several crude oil releases involving our assets, including, without limitation, a release at our Magnolia Station in March 2013, a release near Macedonia, Arkansas in October 2013 and a release in Haynesville, Louisiana in April 2014. We do not believe the total costs associated with these events, whether alone or in the aggregate, including any fines or penalties and net of partial insurance reimbursement, will have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition or results of operations.

22


Contracts and Agreements
The majority of the petroleum products we sell in west Texas are purchased from Noble Petro, Inc. ("Noble Petro"). Under the terms of a supply contract (the "Abilene Contract") with Noble Petro, we have the right to purchase up to 20,350 bpd of petroleum products at the Abilene, Texas terminal, which we own, for sales at the Abilene and San Angelo terminals and to exchange barrels with third parties. We lease the Abilene and San Angelo, Texas terminals to Noble Petro, under a separate Terminal and Pipeline Lease and Operating Agreement, with a term that runs concurrent with that of the Abilene Contract. The Abilene Contract expires on December 31, 2017 and does not include any options for renewal. We also purchase spot barrels from various third parties and from Delek for sale to wholesale customers in west Texas.
Letters of Credit
As of March 31, 2015 , we had in place letters of credit totaling approximately $4.5 million under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, primarily securing obligations with respect to gasoline and diesel purchases. No amounts were drawn under these letters of credit at March 31, 2015 .
Operating Leases
We lease certain equipment and have surface leases under various operating lease arrangements, most of which provide the option to renew after the current lease term. None of these lease arrangements includes fixed rental rate increases. Lease expense for all operating leases totaled $0.2 million for both the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 .

14 . Related Party Transactions
Commercial Agreements
The Partnership has various agreements with Delek, the majority of which are long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with Delek under which we provide crude oil gathering, crude oil and intermediate and refined products transportation and storage services, and marketing and terminalling services to Delek. Each of these agreements includes minimum quarterly volume or throughput commitments and has tariffs or fees indexed to inflation, provided that the tariffs or fees will not be decreased below the initial amount. Fees under each agreement are payable to us monthly by Delek or certain third parties to whom Delek has assigned certain of its rights. In most circumstances, if Delek or the applicable third party assignee fails to meet or exceed the minimum volume or throughput commitment during any calendar quarter, Delek, and not any third party assignee, will be required to make a quarterly shortfall payment to us equal to the volume of the shortfall multiplied by the applicable fee.
The tariffs, throughput fees and the storage fees under our agreements with Delek are subject to increase or decrease annually, by the amount of any change in various inflation-based indices, including the FERC oil pipeline index, the consumer price index and the producer price index; provided, however, that in no event will the fees be adjusted below the amount initially set forth in the applicable agreement.
See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for a description of certain of our commercial agreements and other agreements with Delek. During the three months ended March 31, 2015 , we entered into the following material commercial agreements with Delek:

El Dorado Assets Throughput Agreement . On March 31, 2015, in connection with the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition, we and Delek entered into the Throughput Agreement (El Dorado Rail Offloading Facility) (the "Throughput Agreement") with respect to the El Dorado Assets. Under the Throughput Agreement, we will provide Delek with rail offloading services in return for throughput fees. The fees under the Throughput Agreement are indexed annually for inflation. The initial term of the Throughput Agreement is nine years and Delek, at its sole option, may extend the term for two renewal terms of three years each.
Omnibus Agreement. The Partnership entered into an omnibus agreement with Delek, our general partner, OpCo, Lion Oil Company and certain of the Partnership’s and Delek’s other subsidiaries on November 7, 2012 , which was subsequently amended and restated on July 26, 2013 and February 26, 2014 in connection with our subsequent acquisitions from Delek (collectively, the "Omnibus Agreement"). The Omnibus Agreement was amended and restated again on March 31, 2015 in connection with the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition and the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition (the "Third Restated Omnibus Agreement"). The Third Restated Omnibus Agreement includes, among other things: (i) revisions of the schedules to include the El Dorado Assets and the Tyler Assets, (ii) revisions of certain provisions and schedules with respect to certain environmental matters, (iii) the addition of DKL Transportation, LLC as a party to the agreement, (iv) the elimination of certain provisions under the Omnibus Agreement that had expired, and (v) updating the annual administrative fee payable by us to Delek for general corporate and administrative services that Delek and its affiliates provide to us to reflect the inflationary increase provided under the Omnibus Agreement, from $3.3 million to $3.4 million , which is prorated and payable monthly.
Under the Third Restated Omnibus Agreement, Delek reimburses us for, among other things, (i) certain expenses that we incur for inspections, maintenance and repairs to certain assets we acquired from Delek to cause such assets to comply with applicable regulatory and/or industry standards, (ii) certain expenses that we incur for inspections, maintenance and repairs to most of the storage tanks contributed to us by Delek (subject to a deductible of $0.5 million per year) that are necessary to comply with the DOT pipeline integrity rules and certain American Petroleum Institute storage tank standards for a period of five years, and (iii) certain non-discretionary maintenance capital expenditures with respect to certain of our assets in excess of specified amounts, all as disclosed in the full agreement filed as Exhibit 10.3 to our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on April 6, 2015.
Predecessors' Transactions
Related-party transactions of the Predecessors were settled through division equity. Revenues from affiliates consist of revenues from gathering, pipeline transportation, storage, wholesale marketing and products terminalling services to Delek and its affiliates based on regulated tariff rates or contractually based fees.
Costs related specifically to us have been identified and included in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Prior to the formation of the Partnership, the El Dorado Acquisition, the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition and the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition, we were not allocating certain corporate costs. These costs were primarily allocated based on a percentage of salaries expense and property, plant and equipment costs. In the opinion of management, the methods for allocating these costs are reasonable. It is not practicable to estimate the costs that would have been incurred by us if we had been operated on a stand-alone basis.
Summary of Transactions
A summary of revenue and expense transactions with Delek, including expenses directly charged and allocated to our Predecessors, are as follows (in thousands):

In accordance with our partnership agreement, our common, subordinated and general partner unitholders are entitled to receive quarterly distributions of available cash. We paid quarterly cash distributions, of which $ 7.8 million and $6.3 million were paid to Delek and our general partner during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. On April 21, 2015 , our general partner's board of directors declared a quarterly cash distribution totaling $13.7 million, based on the available cash as of the date of determination for the end of the first quarter of 2015 , payable on May 14, 2015 , to unitholders of record on May 4, 2015 . The distribution will include $8.7 million paid to both Delek and our general partner, including incentive distribution rights.
15 . Subsequent Events

Distribution Declaration
On April 21, 2015 , our general partner's board of directors declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.53 per limited partner unit, payable on May 14, 2015 , to unitholders of record on May 4, 2015 .
Fouke Junction Spill
On April 28, 2015, a release of an estimated 100 barrels of crude oil occurred from a gathering line near Fouke, Arkansas. No significant environmental or public impacts have been identified. Cleanup operations were coordinated with state and federal officials and may continue for several weeks. Site maintenance, and remediation, if determined necessary, may continue for several months or longer. Based on current information available to us, we can not estimate the costs and liabilities, including any potential fines and penalties, associated with this event. However, we do not believe the total costs associated with this event, including any fines or penalties and net of any reimbursement and or indemnification by Delek pursuant to the Third Restated Omnibus Agreement and partial insurance reimbursement, will have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this report to "Delek Logistics Partners, LP," the "Partnership," and "we," "our," "us," or like terms, refer to Delek Logistics Partners, LP and its general partner and subsidiaries. Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this report to "Delek" refer collectively to Delek US Holdings, Inc. and any of its subsidiaries, other than Delek Logistics Partners, LP, its subsidiaries and its general partner. Those statements in this section that are not historical in nature should be deemed forward-looking statements that are inherently uncertain. See "Forward-Looking Statements" below for a discussion of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in such statements.
On February 10, 2014, the Partnership, through its wholly owned subsidiary Delek Logistics Operating, LLC ("OpCo"), acquired from Delek (i) the refined products terminal (the "El Dorado Terminal") located at Delek's El Dorado, Arkansas refinery (the "El Dorado Refinery") and (ii) 158 storage tanks and certain ancillary assets (the "El Dorado Tank Assets" and together with the El Dorado Terminal, the "El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets") at and adjacent to the El Dorado Refinery (such transaction, the “El Dorado Acquisition”).
On March 31, 2015, the Partnership, through OpCo, acquired from Delek, two crude oil rail offloading racks, which racks are designed to receive up to 25,000 barrels per day ("bpd") of light crude oil or 12,000 bpd of heavy crude oil, or some combination of the two, delivered by rail to the El Dorado Refinery and related ancillary assets (the "El Dorado Assets") (such transaction, the "El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition").
On March 31, 2015, the Partnership, through its wholly owned subsidiary Delek Marketing & Supply, LP, acquired from Delek, a crude oil storage tank (the "Tyler Crude Tank") located adjacent to Delek's Tyler, Texas refinery (the "Tyler Refinery") and certain ancillary assets (collectively, with the Tyler Crude Tank, the "Tyler Assets") (such transaction, the "Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition"). The Tyler Crude Tank has approximately 350,000 barrels of shell capacity and is expected to primarily support the Tyler Refinery. The Tyler Assets, together with the El Dorado Assets, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Logistics Assets."
The El Dorado Acquisition, the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition, and the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition were accounted for as transfers between entities under common control. As an entity under common control with Delek, we record the assets that Delek has contributed to us on our balance sheet at Delek's historical basis instead of fair value. Transfers between entities under common control are accounted for as if the transfer occurred at the beginning of the period, and prior years are retrospectively adjusted to furnish comparable information. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements and related notes of the Partnership have been retrospectively adjusted to include (i) the historical results of the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets for all periods presented through February 10, 2014 (the "El Dorado Predecessor"), and (ii) the historical results of the Logistics Assets for all periods presented through March 31, 2015 (the "Logistics Assets Predecessor"). We refer to the historical results of the El Dorado Predecessor and the Logistics Assets Predecessor collectively as our "Predecessors."
You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our historical condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements reflect our current estimates, expectations and projections about our future results, performance, prospects and opportunities. Forward-looking statements include, among other things, the information concerning our possible future results of operations, business and growth strategies, financing plans, expectations that regulatory developments or other matters will not have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition, our competitive position and the effects of competition, the projected growth of the industry in which we operate, and the benefits and synergies to be obtained from our completed and any future acquisitions, and statements of management’s goals and objectives, and other similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts.

In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, our actual results of operations and execution of our business strategy could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance upon them. In addition, past financial and/or operating performance is not necessarily a reliable indicator of future performance and you should not use our historical performance to anticipate future period results or trends. There can be no assurance that any of the events anticipated by the forward-looking statements will occur or, if any such events do occur, what impact they will have on our results of operations and financial condition.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date the statements are made. We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting forward-looking information except to the extent required by applicable securities laws. If we do update one or more forward-looking statements,

27


no inference should be drawn that we will make additional updates with respect thereto or with respect to other forward-looking statements.
Business Overview
The Partnership primarily owns and operates crude oil and intermediate and refined products logistics and marketing assets. We gather, transport and store crude oil and intermediate and refined products and market, distribute, transport and store refined products primarily in select regions of the southeastern United States and Texas for Delek and third parties, primarily in support of Delek’s Tyler and El Dorado Refineries. A substantial majority of our existing assets are both integral to and dependent on the success of Delek’s refining operations, as many of our assets are contracted exclusively to Delek in support of its Tyler and El Dorado Refineries.
The Partnership is not a taxable entity for federal income tax purposes or the income taxes of those states that follow the federal income tax treatment of partnerships. Instead, for purposes of these income taxes, each partner of the Partnership is required to take into account its share of items of income, gain, loss and deduction in computing its federal and state income tax liabilities, regardless of whether cash distributions are made to the partner by the Partnership. The taxable income reportable to each partner takes into account differences between the tax basis and the fair market value of our assets and financial reporting bases of assets and liabilities, the acquisition price of their units and the taxable income allocation requirements under our partnership agreement.
Our Reporting Segments and Assets

Our business consists of two operating segments: (i) our pipelines and transportation segment and (ii) our wholesale marketing and terminalling segment.

The assets and investments in our pipelines and transportation segment consist of and have been made in pipelines and trucks and ancillary assets, that provide crude oil gathering, crude oil and intermediate and refined products transportation and storage services primarily in support of Delek's refining operations in Tyler, Texas and El Dorado, Arkansas. Additionally, the assets in this segment provide crude oil transportation services to certain third parties, including a major integrated oil company. In providing these services, we do not take ownership of the products or crude oil that we transport or store; and, therefore, we are not directly exposed to changes in commodity prices with respect to this operating segment.

The assets in our wholesale marketing and terminalling segment consist of refined products terminals and pipelines in Texas, Tennessee and Arkansas. We generate revenue in our wholesale marketing and terminalling segment by providing marketing services for the refined products output of the Tyler Refinery, engaging in wholesale activity at our terminals in west Texas, and at terminals owned by third parties, whereby we purchase light products for sale and exchange to third parties, and by providing terminalling services at our refined product terminals to independent third parties and Delek.
Recent Developments
Acquisitions
El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition. On March 31, 2015 , the Partnership completed the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition and acquired the El Dorado Assets.
In connection with the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition, the Partnership and Delek entered into (i) an asset purchase agreement, (ii) the Third Restated Omnibus Agreement, (iii) a throughput agreement with respect to the El Dorado Assets, (iv) a lease and access agreement, and (v) an amended and restated site services agreement.
Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition. On March 31, 2015 , the Partnership completed the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition and acquired the Tyler Assets, including the Tyler Crude Tank.
Other Developments
Third Restated Omnibus Agreement. The Partnership entered into an omnibus agreement with Delek, our general partner, OpCo, Lion Oil Company and certain of the Partnership’s and Delek’s other subsidiaries on November 7, 2012 , which was subsequently amended and restated on July 26, 2013 and February 26, 2014 in connection with our subsequent acquisitions from Delek (collectively, the "Omnibus Agreement"). The Omnibus Agreement was amended and restated again on March 31, 2015 in connection with the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition and the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition (the "Third Restated Omnibus Agreement"). The Third Restated Omnibus Agreement includes, among other things: (i) revisions of the schedules to include the El Dorado Assets and the Tyler Assets, (ii) revisions of certain provisions and schedules with respect to environmental matters in favor of the Partnership, (iii) the addition of DKL Transportation, LLC as a party to the agreement, (iv) the elimination of certain provisions under the Omnibus Agreement that had expired, and (v) updating the annual administrative fee payable by us to Delek

28


for general corporate and administrative services that Delek and its affiliates provide to us to reflect the inflationary increase provided under the Omnibus Agreement.
Joint Ventures. On March 20, 2015, we entered into two joint ventures that will construct logistics assets to serve third parties and subsidiaries of Delek. Our total projected investment for the two joint ventures is approximately $91.0 million and will be financed through a combination of cash from operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facility and asset contributions.
How We Generate Revenue     
The Partnership generates revenue by charging fees for gathering, transporting and storing crude oil and for marketing, distributing, transporting, throughputting and storing intermediate and refined products. A substantial majority of our contribution margin, which we define as net sales less cost of goods sold and operating expenses, is derived from commercial agreements with Delek with initial terms ranging from five to ten years, which we believe enhances the stability of our cash flows. As more fully described below, our commercial agreements with Delek include minimum volume commitments, which we believe will provide a stable revenue stream in the future.
Commercial Agreements
Commercial Agreements with Delek
The Partnership has various long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with Delek pursuant to which we provide crude oil gathering, crude oil and refined products transportation, and storage services and marketing and terminalling services to Delek, and Delek commits to provide us with minimum monthly throughput volumes of crude oil and refined products. See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (our "Annual Report on Form 10-K") for a description of certain of our commercial and other agreements with Delek and our material agreements with third parties.
How We Evaluate Our Operations
We use a variety of financial and operating metrics to analyze our segment performance. These metrics are significant factors in assessing our operating results and profitability and include: (i) volumes (including pipeline throughput and terminal volumes); (ii) contribution margin and gross margin per barrel; (iii) operating and maintenance expenses; and (iv) EBITDA and distributable cash flow. We define EBITDA and distributable cash flow below.
Volumes. The amount of revenue we generate primarily depends on the volumes of crude oil and intermediate and refined products that we handle in our pipeline, transportation, terminalling and marketing operations. These volumes are primarily affected by the supply of and demand for crude oil and refined products in the markets served directly or indirectly by our assets. Although Delek has committed to minimum volumes under our commercial agreements, our results of operations will be impacted by:
Delek’s utilization of our assets in excess of its minimum volume commitments;
our ability to identify and execute acquisitions and organic expansion projects, and capture incremental volume increases from Delek or third-parties;
our ability to increase throughput volumes or sales at our refined products terminals and provide additional ancillary services at those terminals, such as ethanol blending and additives injection;
our ability to identify and serve new customers in our marketing operations; and
our ability to make connections to third-party facilities and pipelines.
Contribution Margin and Gross Margin per Barrel. Because we do not allocate general and administrative expenses by segment, we measure the performance of our segments by the amount of contribution margin generated in operations. Contribution margin is calculated as net sales less cost of sales and operating expenses.
For our wholesale marketing and terminalling segment, we also measure gross margin per barrel. The gross margin per barrel reflects the gross margin (net sales less cost of sales) of the wholesale marketing operations divided by the number of barrels of refined products sold during the measurement period. Both contribution margin and gross margin per barrel can be affected by fluctuations in the prices of gasoline, distillate fuel and Renewable Identification Numbers ("RINs"). Historically, the profitability of our wholesale marketing operations has been affected by commodity price volatility, specifically as it relates to changes in the price of refined products between the time we purchase such products from our suppliers and the time we sell the products to our wholesale customers, and the fluctuation in the value of RINs.
Operating and Maintenance Expenses. We seek to maximize the profitability of our operations by effectively managing operating and maintenance expenses. These expenses are comprised primarily of labor expenses, lease costs, utility costs, insurance premiums, repairs and maintenance expenses and property taxes. These expenses generally remain relatively stable across broad ranges of throughput volumes but can fluctuate from period to period depending on the mix of activities performed during that period and the timing of these expenses. We will seek to manage our maintenance expenditures on our pipelines and terminals

29


by scheduling maintenance over time to avoid significant variability in our maintenance expenditures and minimize their impact on our cash flow.
EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense. We define distributable cash flow as EBITDA less net cash paid for interest, maintenance and regulatory capital expenditures and income taxes. Distributable cash flow will not reflect changes in working capital balances. Distributable cash flow and EBITDA are not presentations made in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP").
EBITDA and distributable cash flow are non-U.S. GAAP supplemental financial measures that management and external users of our condensed consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies may use to assess:
our operating performance as compared to other publicly traded partnerships in the midstream energy industry, without regard to historical cost basis or, in the case of EBITDA, financing methods;
the ability of our assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to our unitholders;
our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and
the viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities.
We believe that the presentation of EBITDA and distributable cash flow provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. EBITDA and distributable cash flow should not be considered alternatives to net income, operating income, cash from operations or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA and distributable cash flow have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities. Additionally, because EBITDA and distributable cash flow may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definition of EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing its utility. For a reconciliation of EBITDA to its most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, please refer to "Results of Operations—Statement of Operations Data" below.
Factors Affecting the Comparability of Our Financial Results
Our future results of operations may not be comparable to our historical results of operations for the reasons described below:
Revenues. There are differences between the way the Predecessors recorded revenues and the way the Partnership records revenues after the acquisitions of our Predecessors' assets. Because our assets, including the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets and the Logistics Assets, were historically a part of the integrated operations of Delek, the Predecessors generally recognized the costs and most revenue associated with the gathering, pipeline, transportation, terminalling and storage services provided to Delek on an intercompany basis or charged low throughput fees for transportation. Accordingly, the revenues in the Predecessors' condensed consolidated financial statements are different than those reflected in the Partnership's condensed consolidated financial statements as the Predecessors' amounts relate primarily to amounts received from third parties while the Partnership's revenues will reflect amounts associated with our commercial agreements with Delek in addition to amounts received from third parties.
The Partnership's revenues are generated from the commercial agreements that we entered into with Delek and from agreements and arrangements with third parties, pursuant to which we receive fees for gathering, transporting and storing crude oil and marketing, transporting, storing and terminalling intermediate and refined products. Certain of these contracts contain minimum volume commitments and fees that are indexed for inflation. In addition, the tariff rates for our assets that are subject to inflation indexing will be adjusted annually on July 1 of each year. We expect to generate revenue from ancillary services, such as ethanol blending and additive injection, and from transportation and terminalling fees on our pipeline systems and terminals for volumes in excess of the minimum volume committed under our agreements with Delek.
General and Administrative Expenses. The Predecessor's general and administrative expenses included direct monthly charges for the management and operation of our logistics assets and certain expenses allocated by Delek for general corporate services, such as treasury, accounting and legal services. These expenses were charged or allocated to the Predecessors based on the nature of the expenses and our proportionate share of employee time and headcount.
Delek continues to charge the Partnership for the management and operation of our logistics assets, including an annual fee of $3.35 million for the provision of various centralized corporate services. Additionally, the Partnership will reimburse Delek for direct or allocated costs and expenses incurred by Delek or our general partner on behalf of the Partnership.
Financing. The Partnership has declared its intent to make a cash distribution to its unitholders at a distribution rate of $0.53 per unit for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 ($2.12 per unit on an annualized basis). Our partnership agreement requires that the Partnership distribute to its unitholders quarterly all of its available cash as defined in the partnership agreement. As a result, the Partnership expects to fund future capital expenditures primarily from operating cash flows, borrowings under our second

30


amended and restated senior secured revolving credit agreement (the "Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement") and any future issuances of equity and debt securities.
Market Trends. Our results of operations are impacted by our ability to utilize our existing assets to fulfill the long-term fee-based agreements we have entered into with Delek and with third parties. Overall demand for gathering and terminalling services in a particular area is generally driven by crude oil production in the area, refining economics and access to alternate delivery and transportation infrastructure. Additionally, we are exposed to volatility in crude oil and refined products prices in our west Texas operations. A sharp decline in the price of crude oil may potentially lower the crude oil production level in the west Texas area resulting in lower demand for finished products from our west Texas operations to industries that support crude oil exploration and production. A sharp decline in the selling price of finished products may reduce our margin in the west Texas operations if our purchase price for finished products does not adjust accordingly. Any of these factors is subject to change over time. As part of our overall business strategy, management considers aspects such as location, acquisition and expansion opportunities and factors impacting the utilization of the refineries (and therefore throughput volumes), which may impact our performance in the market.
Seasonality and Customer Maintenance Programs
The volume and throughput of crude oil and refined products transported through our pipelines and sold through our terminals and to third parties is directly affected by the level of supply and demand for all of such products in the markets served directly or indirectly by our assets. Supply and demand for such products fluctuates during the calendar year. Demand for gasoline, for example, is generally higher during the summer months than during the winter months due to seasonal increases in motor vehicle traffic. Demand for asphalt products, which is a substantial product of the El Dorado Refinery, is also lower in the winter months. In addition, our refining customers, such as Delek, occasionally reduce or suspend operations to perform planned maintenance during the winter, when demand for their products is lower. Accordingly, these factors can affect the need for crude oil or finished products by our customers and therefore limit our volumes or throughput during these periods, and our operating results will generally be lower during the first and fourth quarters of the year. We believe, however, that many of the potential effects of seasonality on our revenues and contribution margin will be substantially mitigated due to our commercial agreements with Delek that include minimum volume and throughput commitments.
Contractual Obligations
There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations and commercial commitments during the three months ended March 31, 2015 from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") has defined critical accounting policies as those that are both most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require our most difficult, complex or subjective judgments or estimates. Based on this definition and as further described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, we believe our critical accounting policies include the following: (i) evaluating impairment for property, plant and equipment and definite life intangibles, (ii) valuing goodwill and potential impairment, and (iii) estimating environmental expenditures. For all financial statement periods presented, there have been no material modifications to the application of these critical accounting policies or estimates since our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Results of Operations
A discussion and analysis of the factors contributing to our results of operations is presented below. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes of the Partnership have been retrospectively adjusted to include the historical results of the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets for all periods presented through February 10, 2014 and the historical results of the Logistics Assets for all periods presented through March 31, 2015 . The financial statements, together with the following information, are intended to provide investors with a reasonable basis for assessing our historical operations, but should not serve as the only criteria for predicting our future performance.
The following table and discussion present a summary of our consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 , including a reconciliation of EBITDA to net income and net cash provided by (used in) operating activities and distributable cash flow to net income (in thousands, except unit and per unit amounts). Our financial results may not be comparable as our Predecessors recorded revenues, general and administrative expenses and financed operations differently than the Partnership. See "Factors Affecting the Comparability of Our Financial Results" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

Consolidated Results of Operations — Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2015 compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2014
Contribution margin for the first quarter of 2015 was $24.3 million compared to $21.8 million for the first quarter of 2014 , an increase of $2.5 million , or 11.5% . The increase in contribution margin was primarily attributable to the effect of the throughput and tankage agreements we entered into with Delek in connection with the El Dorado Acquisition and volume increases on our Lion Pipeline System during the first quarter of 2015 as compared to the first quarter of 2014 . Volume increases on our Lion Pipeline System were attributable to reduced operations at Delek's El Dorado Refinery in the first quarter of 2014 as a result of a planned turnaround at the refinery. Also contributing to the increase in contribution margin were increased fees on our Paline Pipeline System. These increases were partially offset by lower margins in our operations in west Texas as a result of lower fuel prices, which decreased significantly during the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 and reduced sales volumes at the Tyler Refinery due to plant downtime during a maintenance turnaround and expansion.
For the first quarters of 2015 and 2014 , we generated net sales of $143.5 million and $203.5 million , respectively, a decrease of $60.0 million , or 29.5% . The decrease was primarily attributable to decreases in the average sales prices per gallon of gasoline and diesel sold in our west Texas marketing operations. The average sales price per gallon of gasoline sold decreased $1.13 per gallon during the first quarter of 2015 , compared to the first quarter of 2014 . The average sales price per gallon of diesel sold decreased $1.33 per gallon during the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 . Partially offsetting the decreases were net sales contributed by trucking assets we acquired from Frank Thompson Transport, Inc. in December 2014 (the "FTT Assets"), the terminalling and pipeline assets we acquired in October 2014 near Mount Pleasant, Texas, the effect of the throughput and tankage agreements for the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets and improved economies realized on our Paline Pipeline System.
Cost of goods sold was $108.4 million for the first quarter of 2015 compared to $172.2 million for the first quarter of 2014 , a decrease of $63.8 million , or 37.0% . The decrease in cost of goods sold was primarily attributable to decreases in the average cost per gallon of gasoline and diesel purchased in our west Texas marketing operations. The average cost per gallon of gasoline purchased decreased $1.05 per gallon during the first quarter of 2015 , compared to the first quarter of 2014 . The average cost per gallon of diesel purchased decreased $1.25 per gallon during the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 .
Operating expenses were $10.8 million for the first quarter of 2015 compared to $9.5 million for the first quarter of 2014 , an increase of $1.3 million , or 13.5% . The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to acquisitions that have occurred since the first quarter of 2014, including the El Dorado Terminal and Tank Assets, the El Dorado Assets, a pipeline and a terminal. Also contributing to the increase were increases in various maintenance initiatives in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 .
General and administrative expenses were $3.4 million and $2.7 million for the first quarter of 2015 and 2014 , respectively, an increase of $0.7 million , or 28.0% . The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily due to increases in professional services fees incurred in connection with our various acquisition activities and joint venture projects.
Depreciation and amortization was $4.5 million for the first quarter of 2015 compared to $3.5 million for the first quarter of 2014 , an increase of $1.0 million , or 29.4% . The increase in depreciation and amortization was primarily due to the acquisition of the FTT Assets and the Logistics Assets.
Interest expense was $2.2 million for the first quarter of 2015 compared to $2.0 million for the first quarter of 2014 , an increase of $0.2 million , or 8.8% . This increase was primarily attributable to increases in deferred financing charges and interest costs under our revolving credit facility due to changes in debt utilization and interest rates thereunder.
Income tax expense was $0.3 million for the first quarter of 2015 , compared to $0.1 million for the first quarter of 2014 . Our effective tax rate was 1.8% for the first quarter of 2015 , compared to 1.1% for the first quarter of 2014 . The Partnership is not subject to federal income taxes as a limited partnership. Accordingly, our taxable income or loss is included in the federal and state income tax returns of our partners. Income tax expense represents amounts incurred for state income taxes.

Operating Segments
We review operating results in two reportable segments: (i) pipelines and transportation segment and (ii) wholesale marketing and terminalling segment. Decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of operating performance are made based on this segmentation. Management measures the operating performance of each reportable segment based on the segment contribution margin. Segment contribution margin is defined as net sales less cost of sales and operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization. Segment reporting is more fully discussed in Note 10 to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Pipelines and Transportation Segment
The pipelines and transportation segment includes pipelines and trucks and ancillary assets, that provide crude oil gathering, crude oil and intermediate and refined products transportation and storage services to Delek and other third-parties.
The following table and discussion is an explanation of the results of operations of the pipelines and transportation segment, including the historical results of the Logistics Assets, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 and of the El Dorado Predecessor for the three months ended March 31, 2014 (dollars in thousands):

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2015 compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2014
Contribution margin for the pipelines and transportation segment in the first quarter of 2015 was $19.3 million , or 79.2% of our consolidated segment contribution margin, compared to $12.0 million , or 54.8% of our consolidated segment contribution margin, in the first quarter of 2014 , an increase of $7.3 million, or 61.0% . The increase in the pipelines and transportation segment contribution margin was primarily attributable to increases in net sales as a result of the effect of the throughput and tankage agreements we entered into with Delek in connection with the acquisition of the El Dorado Tank Assets, the acquisition of the FTT Assets and volume increases on our Lion Pipeline System during the first quarter of 2015 as compared to the first quarter of 2014 . Volume increases on our Lion Pipeline System were attributable to reduced operations at Delek's El Dorado Refinery in the first quarter of 2014 as a result of planned maintenance at the refinery. Additionally, increased fees on our Paline Pipeline System accounted for approximately $3.0 million of the increase in contribution margin.
Net sales for the pipelines and transportation segment were $31.0 million  for the first quarter of 2015 compared to $20.3 million for the first quarter of 2014 , an increase of $10.7 million, or 53.0% . The increase was primarily attributable to net sales contributed by the FTT Assets, the effect of the throughput and tankage agreements for the El Dorado Tank Assets and improved economies realized on our Paline Pipeline System.
Operating expenses were $6.9 million for the first quarter of 2015 compared to $7.2 million for the first quarter of 2014 , a decrease of $0.3 million , or 3.6% . The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to reduced maintenance costs.
Wholesale Marketing and Terminalling Segment
We use our wholesale marketing and terminalling assets to generate revenue by providing wholesale marketing and terminalling services to Delek’s refining operations and to independent third parties.
The table and discussion below is an explanation of the results of operations of the wholesale marketing and terminalling segment for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 (dollars in thousands, except for per barrel figures):

The information presented includes the results of operations of the El Dorado Predecessor. Prior to the completion of the El Dorado Acquisition, the El Dorado Predecessor did not record revenues for intercompany terminalling services.
Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2015 compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2014
Contribution margin for the wholesale marketing and terminalling segment amounted to $5.1 million , or 20.8% of our consolidated contribution margin, in the first quarter of 2015 , compared to $9.9 million , or 45.2% of our consolidated contribution margin, in the first quarter of 2014 , a decrease of $4.8 million , or 48.7% . The decrease in contribution margin was primarily attributable to lower margins achieved in our operations in west Texas as a result of lower fuel prices, which decreased significantly during the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 . The gross margin per barrel was also affected by more challenging market conditions in west Texas during the period. Further contributing to the decreases in contribution margin were reduced sales volumes at the Tyler Refinery due to plant downtime during a maintenance turnaround and expansion.
Net sales for our wholesale marketing and terminalling segment in the first quarter of 2015 decreased $70.8 million, or 38.6% , to $112.5 million from $183.3 million in the first quarter of 2014 . The decrease was primarily attributable to decreases in the average sales prices per gallon of gasoline and diesel sold in our west Texas marketing operations. The average sales price per gallon of gasoline sold decreased $1.13 per gallon during the first quarter 2015 , compared to the first quarter of 2014 . The average sales price per gallon of diesel sold decreased $1.33 per gallon during the first quarter of 2015 , compared to the first quarter of 2014 .
Cost of goods sold for our wholesale marketing and terminalling segment decreased $67.5 million, or 39.4% , to $103.6 million in the first quarter of 2015 , as compared to cost of goods sold of $171.1 million in the first quarter of 2014 . The decrease in cost of goods sold is attributable to decreases in the average cost per gallon of gasoline and diesel purchased in our west Texas marketing operations. The average cost per gallon of gasoline purchased decreased $1.05 per gallon during the first quarter of 2015 , compared to the first quarter of 2014 . The average cost per gallon of diesel purchased decreased $1.25 per gallon during the first quarter of 2015 , compared to the first quarter of 2014 .
Operating expenses were $3.9 million in the first quarter of 2015 , an increase of $1.6 million or 66.3% , as compared to operating expenses of $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2014 . The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to acquisitions that have occurred since the first quarter of 2014 and increases in various maintenance initiatives in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014 .

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We expect our ongoing sources of liquidity to include cash generated from operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facility and potential issuances of additional equity securities and debt. We believe that cash generated from these sources will be sufficient to satisfy the anticipated cash requirements associated with our existing operations, including minimum quarterly cash distributions, for at least the next 12 months.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $15.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 , compared to cash provided of $13.4 million for the comparable period of 2014 . The increase in cash flows provided by operations was due to higher operating income as a result of our acquisition activity and decreases in inventory and other current assets. Inventory decreased as a result of reduced product purchases in our west Texas operations and from Delek due to downtime at the Tyler Refinery as a result of the maintenance turnaround and expansion. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $14.0 million, compared to $13.6 million in the same period of 2014 .

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $8.6 million for the first three months of 2015 , compared to $2.3 million used in the comparable period of 2014 . Cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2015 includes capital expenditures of approximately $7.6 million , of which $4.6 million was spent on projects in the pipelines and transportation segment and $3.0 million was spent in the wholesale marketing and terminalling segment. This compares to capital expenditures made during the three months ended March 31, 2014 of $2.3 million . Capital expenditures made during the three months ended March 31, 2015 related primarily to the purchase of assets from Delek, which accounted for approximately $3.8 million of cash used in

44


investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2015 . Additionally, projects on our terminalling assets and our Lion Pipeline System, accounted for approximately $2.9 million and $0.7 million, respectively of total capital expenditures. Capital expenditures made during the three months ended March 31, 2014 related primarily to the Tyler Assets, our Lion Pipeline System and our East Texas Crude Logistics System, which accounted for approximately $1.3 million, $0.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively, of total capital expenditures. Additionally, we contributed approximately $2.2 million in cash to our joint ventures during the three months ended March 31, 2015 . Partially offsetting the cash used in investing activities was an asset sale generating proceeds of approximately $1.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015 .
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $9.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2015 , compared to net cash used of $7.9 million in the comparable period of 2014 . We paid quarterly cash distributions totaling $13.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015 , compared to quarterly cash distributions totaling $10.2 million paid during the three months ended March 31, 2014 . Additionally, we paid $61.9 million in exchange for assets included in the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition and the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition during the three months ended March 31, 2015 , compared to $95.9 million paid in exchange for assets included in the El Dorado Acquisition during the three months ended March 31, 2014 . Offsetting the cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 were net proceeds of $64.6 million and $95.7 million, respectively, under our revolving credit facility.
Cash Position and Indebtedness
As of March 31, 2015 , we had nominal total cash and cash equivalents and we had total indebtedness of approximately $316.4 million . Borrowing availability under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement was approximately $379.1 million and we had letters of credit issued of approximately $4.5 million . We believe we were in compliance with the applicable covenants in our credit agreement as of March 31, 2015 .
We entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement on November 7, 2012 , with Fifth Third Bank, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders. The agreement was amended and restated on July 9, 2013 and was most recently amended and restated on December 30, 2014. Under the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the lender commitments were increased from $400.0 million to $700.0 million. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement also contains an accordion feature whereby the Partnership can increase the size of the credit facility to an aggregate of $800.0 million, subject to receiving increased or new commitments from lenders and the satisfaction of certain other conditions precedent. While the majority of the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are substantially unchanged from the predecessor facility, among other things, changes were made to certain negative covenants, the financial covenants and the interest rate pricing grid. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains an option for Canadian dollar denominated borrowings. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement matures on December 30, 2019.
Agreements Governing Certain Indebtedness of Delek
Although we are not contractually bound by and are not liable for Delek’s debt under its credit arrangements, we are indirectly affected by certain prohibitions and limitations contained therein. Specifically, under the terms of certain of Delek's credit arrangements, we expect that Delek will be in default if we incur any indebtedness for borrowed money in excess of $300.0 million at any time outstanding, which amount is subject to and has been increased for (i) certain acquisitions of additional or newly constructed assets and for growth capital expenditures, in each case, net of asset sales, and for (ii) certain types of debt, such as debt obligations owed under hedge agreements, intercompany debt of the Partnership and our subsidiaries and debt under certain types of contingent obligations. These arrangements also require that Delek meets certain minimum levels for (i) consolidated shareholders’ equity and (ii) a ratio of consolidated shareholders’ equity to adjusted total assets. We cannot assure you that such covenants will not impact our ability to use the full capacity available under our revolving credit facility in the future. Delek, due to its majority ownership and control of our general partner, has the ability to prevent us from taking actions that would cause Delek to violate any covenant in its credit arrangements or otherwise be in default under any of its credit arrangements.
Capital Spending
A key component of our long-term strategy is our capital expenditure program. Our capital expenditures, excluding capital expenditures related to the assets acquired in the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition and the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition, prior to March 31, 2015, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 were $3.8 million , of which approximately $0.8 million was spent in our pipelines and transportation segment and $3.0 million was spent in our wholesale marketing and terminalling segment. Our capital expenditure forecast is approximately $19.7 million for 2015 .

(1)  
Maintenance capital expenditures represent cash expenditures (including expenditures for the addition or improvement to, or the replacement of, our capital assets, and for the acquisition of existing, or the construction or development of new, capital assets) made to maintain our long-term operating income or operating capacity. Examples of maintenance capital expenditures are expenditures for the repair, refurbishment and replacement of pipelines and terminals, to maintain equipment reliability, integrity and safety and to address environmental laws and regulations. Delek has agreed to reimburse us with respect to assets it has transferred to us for all non-discretionary maintenance capital expenditures, other than those required to comply with applicable environmental laws and regulations, in excess of specified dollar amounts for a period of five years.
(2)  
The actual and forecasted capital spending does not include capital expenditures prior to March 31, 2015 of ($0.1) million related to the assets acquired in the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition and the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition. Also excluded from the actual capital spending is a $3.8 million purchase of assets from Delek, as we subsequently contributed the assets to Caddo Pipeline, LLC, a joint venture entered into with Plains Pipeline, L.P., an affiliate of Plains All American Pipeline, L.P.
For the full year 2015 , we plan to spend approximately $1.5 million on regulatory projects in the pipelines and transportation segment. In addition, we plan to spend approximately $10.9 million on maintenance projects and approximately $1.6 million for other discretionary projects in 2015 in the pipelines and transportation segment. In the wholesale marketing and terminalling segment, we have $5.8 million budgeted for the year ending December 31, 2015, of which $3.7 million is allocated to discretionary projects. Of the $10.9 million budgeted to maintenance projects in the pipelines and transportation segment, approximately $10.1 million relates to the repair and replacement of certain of our tanks. Of the $3.7 million budgeted to discretionary projects in the wholesale marketing and terminalling segment, $2.8 million relates to the expansion of our refined products terminal located at Delek's Tyler Refinery.
On March 31, 2015, in connection with the El Dorado Offloading Racks Acquisition and the Tyler Crude Tank Acquisition, the Partnership entered into the Third Restated Omnibus Agreement. Under the Third Restated Omnibus Agreement, Delek reimburses us for (i) certain expenses that we incur for inspections, maintenance and repairs to certain assets we acquired from Delek to cause such assets to comply with applicable regulatory and/or industry standards, (ii) certain expenses that we incur for inspections, maintenance and repairs to most of the storage tanks contributed to us by Delek (subject to a deductible of $0.5 million per year) that are necessary to comply with the United States Department of Transportation pipeline integrity rules and certain American Petroleum Institute storage tank standards for a period of five years, and (iii) for certain non-discretionary maintenance capital expenditures with respect to certain of our assets in excess of specified amounts, as disclosed in the full agreement filed as Exhibit 10.3 to our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on April 6, 2015.
The amount of our capital expenditure budget is subject to change due to unanticipated increases in the cost, scope and completion time for our capital projects. For example, we may experience increases in the cost of and/or timing to obtain necessary equipment required for our continued compliance with government regulations or to complete improvement projects. Additionally, the scope and cost of employee or contractor labor expense related to installation of that equipment could increase from our

46


projections. We rely primarily upon external financing sources, including borrowings under our revolving credit facility and the issuance of equity securities and debt, to fund significant capital expenditures.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements through the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Commodity Price Risk . Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. As we do not take title to any of the crude oil that we handle, and we take title to only limited volumes of light products in our marketing business, we have limited direct exposure to risks associated with fluctuating commodity prices. However, the volatility of refined product prices in our west Texas operations, which depend on many factors, including demand for refined products in the west Texas market, the timing of refined product deliveries and downtime at refineries in the surrounding area, can have an effect on our gross margin. From time to time, we enter into Gulf Coast product swap arrangements with respect to the products we purchase to hedge our exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices for the period between our purchase of products and subsequent sales to our customers. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , we held open derivative contracts representing 12,000 barrels and 142,000 barrels, respectively, of refined petroleum products. We recognized gains associated with derivatives not designated as hedging instruments of $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 . These amounts were recorded to cost of goods sold in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. We did not recognize any gains or losses associated with derivatives not designated as hedging instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2014 . Please see Note 12 to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for additional detail related to our derivative instruments. In addition, the Partnership's commercial agreements with Delek are indexed to inflation.
Interest Rate Risk . Debt that we incur under our revolving credit facility bears interest at floating rates and will expose us to interest rate risk. From time to time, we may use certain derivative instruments to hedge our exposure to floating interest rates. Additionally, our prior revolving credit facility required us to maintain interest rate hedging arrangements with respect to at least 50% of the amount funded on November 7, 2012 under the credit facility, which was required to be in place for at least a three-year period beginning no later than March 7, 2013. Accordingly, effective February 25, 2013, we entered into interest rate hedges in the form of a LIBOR interest rate cap for a term of three years for a total notional amount of $45.0 million, thereby meeting the requirements in effect at that time. These requirements were eliminated in connection with the amendment and restatement of our revolving credit facility in July 2013, but the interest rate hedge remains in place in accordance with its terms. The estimated fair value of our interest rate derivative asset was a nominal amount and $0.1 million as of March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. In accordance with ASC 815, we recorded nominal amounts of non-cash expense representing changes in estimated fair value of the interest rate hedge agreements for each of the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management has evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive and principal financial officers, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report, and has, based on this evaluation, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms including, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 5 . OTHER INFORMATION

Acceleration of Phantom Unit Awards

On May 3, 2015, the Compensation Committee of Delek’s board of directors (“Delek’s Compensation Committee”) approved an employment agreement with Assaf Ginzburg, the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of our general partner. In connection with the agreement, Delek’s Compensation Committee recommended to the Conflicts Committee of the Board of Directors of our general partner, and the Conflicts Committee unanimously approved, an amendment to 12,500 phantom units currently held by Mr. Ginzburg to accelerate the vesting of such units, contingent upon Mr. Ginzburg’s execution of his employment agreement. These phantom units were granted to Mr. Ginzburg on December 10, 2012 and, upon execution of such amendment, will vest on June 10, 2015. The remaining 12,500 phantom units currently held by Mr. Ginzburg that will remain unvested after June 10, 2015 will continue to vest ratably every six months through December 10, 2017.

The Parties hereby enter into this Agreement for the purpose of setting forth their respective rights and obligations relating to the provision by Delek Refining of the SUMF Items to Delek Marketing in connection with Delek Marketing’s ownership, operation and maintenance of the Relevant Assets.
2.2      Nature of the Relationship .
(a)      Except as provided herein, this Agreement shall not in any manner limit the Parties in carrying on their respective separate businesses or operations or impose upon any Party a fiduciary duty vis-à-vis the other Party.
(b)      Delek Refining and Delek Marketing recognize that portions of each of their respective businesses and operations are conducted within the Refinery Site, and that necessary interactions result from such proximity. The respective businesses and operations of Delek Refining and Delek Marketing will be managed and conducted by them, as independent companies, and each may act and conduct its business and operations independently wherever possible. Further, Delek Refining and Delek Marketing recognize their mutual responsibility to support the capability of each other to continue to conduct their respective businesses and operations for routine and non-routine activities (including, but not limited to, start-ups, shut downs, turnarounds, emergencies and other infrequent events).
(c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement and no actions taken by the Parties shall constitute a partnership, joint venture, association or other co-operative entity among the Parties or authorize either Party to represent or contract on behalf of the other Party.

ARTICLE 3
PROVISION OF SUMF ITEMS
3.1      Provision of SUMF Items .
(a)      During the Term of this Agreement, Delek Refining shall make available and provide to Delek Marketing, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the SUMF Items described more fully on Exhibit A to this Agreement for use by Delek Marketing and any of its Affiliates and agents in connection with Delek Marketing’s ownership, operation and maintenance of the Relevant Assets and any Additional Improvements.
(b)      If Delek Marketing reasonably believes in good faith that a SUMF Item provided is not of the quality or quantity necessary to operate and maintain the Relevant Assets and any Additional Improvements as currently operated and maintained, Delek Marketing may deliver written notice of such claim. If Delek Refining does not reasonably satisfy Delek Marketing’s claim pursuant to the foregoing sentence within 30 days after receipt of such notice (or if such claim is of a nature that cannot be resolved within 30 days, if Delek Refining does not commence to satisfy such claim within 30 days after receipt of such notice and thereafter diligently pursue satisfying such claim to completion), then Delek Marketing may reject such SUMF Item and submit a proposal to Delek Refining to reduce the amount of the Annual Service Fee. If Delek Refining refuses to reduce the Annual Service Fee, the Dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the provisions of Article 9 . If Delek Marketing reasonably believes in good faith that a SUMF Item provided is not of the quality or quantity necessary to prevent imminent damage to person or property, or that such deficiency will cause Delek Marketing to cease operating any tanks on the Premises (a “ SUMF Failure ”), then (i) Delek Marketing may obtain such SUMF Items as it reasonably deems necessary to remedy such deficiency, and may offset the cost of the same against subsequent Annual Service Fees or (ii) if Delek Marketing reasonably believes in good faith that such SUMF Item cannot be obtained on commercially reasonable terms, Delek Marketing will be entitled to liquidated damages from Delek Refining in an amount equal to any reduction in the Storage Fee in the Tankage (as defined in the Tankage Agreement) pursuant to Section 8(c) of the Tankage Agreement caused by the SUMF Failure. Delek Marketing shall have the right to access the Refinery Site to put such SUMF Items in service, so long as the same does not materially interfere with Delek Refining’s operation of the Refinery Site.

The provision of all SUMF Items and services hereunder shall be on a non-discriminatory basis comparable to that provided or performed by Delek Refining with respect to its own business at the Refinery Site unless otherwise specified herein.

3.2      Increased Quantities and Additional SUMF Items .
(a)      If subsequent to the date hereof increased quantities of any SUMF Item are reasonably required by Delek Marketing in connection with its ownership, operation or maintenance of the Relevant Assets or any Additional Improvements, Delek Refining shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such increased quantities of such SUMF Item on the same terms and conditions set forth in Exhibit A , so long as the provision of such increased quantities does not interfere in any material respect with Delek Refining’s operations at the Refinery Site or require Delek Refining to make a capital improvement to any SUMF Asset. If the provision by Delek Refining of increased quantities of any SUMF Item as requested by Delek Marketing would require Delek Refining to make such a capital improvement, then Delek Marketing may submit a request to Delek Refining pursuant to Section 6.1(a) . The Annual Service Fee with respect to increased quantities of any SUMF Item requested by Delek Marketing may be increased in accordance with Article 4 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that (i) Delek Marketing uses the Relevant Assets to provide services to third parties, (ii) Delek Marketing’s provision of such third-party services results in a material increase of any SUMF Item required by Delek Marketing, and (iii) provision of such SUMF Items is available to Delek Marketing from third-party vendors on commercially reasonable terms, then Delek Refining may decline to provide such increased and additional SUMF Item. Further, if, in Delek Refining’s sole discretion, the provision of any SUMF Item by Delek Refining in connection with Delek Marketing’s provision of services to third parties could expose Delek Refining or Delek Refining’s assets to environmental risk or liability, then Delek Refining may refuse to provide such SUMF Item in connection with Delek Marketing’s provision of services to third parties.
(b)      If subsequent to the date hereof one or more additional SUMF Items not specifically described herein, but which are being produced or utilized by Delek Refining or its Affiliates in the normal course of their operations at the Refinery Site (“ Additional SUMF Items ”), are or become reasonably necessary to operate or maintain the Relevant Assets and any Additional Improvements, Delek Refining shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such Additional SUMF Items on terms and conditions consistent with the provision of the existing SUMF Items by Delek Refining. The Annual Service Fee with respect to such Additional SUMF Items may be increased in accordance with Article 4 of this Agreement.
3.3      Use of SUMF Items . Delek Marketing agrees to utilize the SUMF Items solely in connection with its ownership, operation and maintenance of the Relevant Assets and any Additional Improvements so long as such use complies with the terms of the Throughput and Tankage Agreements; provided, however , that no provision of this Agreement shall obligate Delek Marketing in any way to utilize all or part of the SUMF Items.
3.4      SUMF Assets . Subject to Article 8 , Delek Refining shall be responsible for operating and maintaining the SUMF Assets, at its sole cost and expense, in accordance with Standard Operating Practice. Except for any capital improvement project proposed by Delek Marketing under Article 6 or undertaken by Delek Marketing under Article 5 , Delek Refining shall be responsible for all costs and expenses of any capital improvements to, or acquisitions of additional, SUMF Assets. In the event Delek Refining fails to promptly make or commence and diligently prosecute

9



any repairs or replacements or maintenance required to be made by Delek Refining to any SUMF Assets under this Agreement, Delek Marketing at its option, after Delek Refining’s failure to cure such default on or before 10 days after notice to Delek Refining, may make the repairs or replacements and perform the maintenance for and on behalf of Delek Refining, and may offset the cost thereof against the Annual Service Fee coming due; provided, however , that if Delek Marketing reasonably believes in good faith that such SUMF Asset cannot be repaired or replaced on commercially reasonable terms, Delek Marketing will be entitled to liquidated damages from Delek Refining in an amount equal to any reduction in the Storage Fee in the Tankage (as defined in the Tankage Agreement) pursuant to Section 8(c) of the Tankage Agreement caused by the failure to repair or replace such SUMF Asset. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an emergency exists, Delek Marketing may take reasonable steps to protect its property, and make the repairs and replacements and perform the maintenance for and on behalf of Delek Refining without notice to Delek Refining.
3.5      Access . The Lease and Access Agreements set forth the relative rights of Delek Marketing and Delek Refining with respect to (a) access by Delek Marketing to the buildings and other assets owned or leased by Delek Refining located at the Refinery Site that are reasonably necessary for the operation of the Relevant Assets and any Additional Improvements and (b) access by Delek Refining to the Premises in order to inspect, repair or maintain any SUMF Assets, and such section is incorporated herein by reference.

ARTICLE 2
RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES
2.1      Rights and Obligations .
The Parties hereby enter into this Agreement for the purpose of setting forth their respective rights and obligations relating to the provision by Lion of the SUMF Items to Delek Logistics in connection with Delek Logistics’ ownership, operation and maintenance of the Relevant Assets.
2.2      Nature of the Relationship .
(a)      Except as provided herein, this Agreement shall not in any manner limit the Parties in carrying on their respective separate businesses or operations or impose upon any Party a fiduciary duty vis-à-vis the other Party.
(b)      Lion and Delek Logistics recognize that portions of each of their respective businesses and operations are conducted within the Refinery Site, and that necessary interactions result from such proximity. The respective businesses and operations of Lion and Delek Logistics will be managed and conducted by them, as independent companies, and each may act and conduct its business and operations independently wherever possible. Further, Lion and Delek Logistics recognize their mutual responsibility to support the capability of each other to continue to conduct their respective businesses and operations for routine and non-routine activities (including, but not limited to, start-ups, shut downs, turnarounds, emergencies and other infrequent events).
(c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement and no actions taken by the Parties shall constitute a partnership, joint venture, association or other co-operative entity among the Parties or authorize either Party to represent or contract on behalf of the other Party. Lion, as the supplier of the SUMF Items, is acting solely as an independent contractor and is not an agent of Delek Logistics. The provision of the SUMF Items hereunder shall be under the sole supervision, control and direction of Lion and not Delek Logistics.
(d)      Notwithstanding Delek Logistics’ obligation to maintain and operate the Relevant Assets and Additional Improvements and comply with Applicable Law, Lion and Delek Logistics acknowledge that Lion shall, as required by any applicable Governmental Authorities, maintain air quality and other environmental permits in its name. Consequently and also for the ease of administration, Lion shall maintain in its name the air quality and other environmental permits and other authorizations applicable to all, or part of, the Relevant Assets and Additional Improvements and shall be responsible for making any reports or other notifications to Governmental Authorities pursuant to such permits or Applicable Laws; provided that upon Lion’s written request Delek Logistics shall apply for, obtain and maintain any such permits in its name. Nothing in this Agreement shall reduce Delek Logistics’ obligations under Applicable Laws with respect to the Relevant Assets and Additional Improvements.

ARTICLE 3
PROVISION OF SUMF ITEMS
3.1      Provision of SUMF Items .
(a)      During the Term of this Agreement, Lion shall make available and provide to Delek Logistics, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the SUMF Items described more fully on Exhibit A to this Agreement for use by Delek Logistics and any of its Affiliates and agents in connection with Delek Logistics’ ownership, operation and maintenance of the Relevant Assets and any Additional Improvements.
(b)      If Delek Logistics reasonably believes in good faith that a SUMF Item provided is not of the quality or quantity necessary to operate and maintain the Relevant Assets and any Additional Improvements as currently operated and maintained, Delek Logistics may deliver written notice of such claim. If Lion does not reasonably satisfy Delek Logistics’ claim pursuant to the foregoing sentence within 30 days after receipt of such notice (or if such claim is of a nature that cannot be resolved within 30 days, if Lion does not commence to satisfy such claim within 30 days after receipt of such notice and thereafter diligently pursue satisfying such claim to completion), then Delek Logistics may reject such SUMF Item and submit a proposal to Lion to reduce the amount of the Annual Service Fee. If Lion refuses to reduce the Annual Service Fee, the Dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the provisions of Article 9 . If Delek Logistics reasonably believes in good faith that a SUMF Item provided is not of the quality or quantity necessary to prevent imminent damage to person or property, or that such deficiency will cause Delek Logistics to cease operating any tanks or rail offloading facilities on the Premises (a “ SUMF Failure ”), then (i) Delek Logistics may obtain such SUMF Items as it reasonably deems necessary to remedy such deficiency, and may offset the cost of the same against subsequent Annual Service Fees or (ii) if Delek Logistics reasonably believes in good faith that such SUMF Item cannot be obtained on commercially reasonable terms, Delek Logistics will be entitled to liquidated damages from Lion in an amount equal to any reductions in the Minimum Quarterly Throughput Payment (as defined in the Rail Offloading Agreement) pursuant to Section 9(b) of the Rail Offloading Agreement caused by the SUMF Failure . Delek Logistics shall have the right to access the Refinery Site to put such SUMF Items in service, so long as the same does not materially interfere with Lion’s operation of the Refinery Site.
(c)      Lion shall notify Delek Logistics as soon as practicable of any actual or anticipated changes in the character of any SUMF Item or any actual or anticipated interruptions, shut-downs, turnarounds or similar events that may adversely affect the provision of any SUMF Item.
(d)      Lion shall provide all SUMF Items and perform all services hereunder in accordance with Standard Operating Practice. The provision of all SUMF Items and services hereunder shall be on a non-discriminatory basis comparable to that provided or performed by Lion with respect to its own business at the Refinery Site unless otherwise specified herein.

8



3.2      Increased Quantities and Additional SUMF Items .
(a)      If subsequent to the date hereof increased quantities of any SUMF Item are reasonably required by Delek Logistics in connection with its ownership, operation or maintenance of the Relevant Assets or any Additional Improvements, Lion shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such increased quantities of such SUMF Item on the same terms and conditions set forth in Exhibit A , so long as the provision of such increased quantities does not interfere in any material respect with Lion’s operations at the Refinery Site or require Lion to make a capital improvement to any SUMF Asset. If the provision by Lion of increased quantities of any SUMF Item as requested by Delek Logistics would require Lion to make such a capital improvement, then Delek Logistics may submit a request to Lion pursuant to Section 6.1(a) . The Annual Service Fee with respect to increased quantities of any SUMF Item requested by Delek Logistics may be increased in accordance with Article 4 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that (i) Delek Logistics uses the Relevant Assets to provide services to third parties, (ii) Delek Logistics’ provision of such third-party services results in a material increase of any SUMF Item required by Delek Logistics, and (iii) provision of such SUMF Items is available to Delek Logistics from third-party vendors on commercially reasonable terms, then Lion may decline to provide such increased and additional SUMF Item. Further, if, in Lion’s sole discretion, the provision of any SUMF Item by Lion in connection with Delek Logistics’ provision of services to third parties could expose Lion or Lion’s assets to environmental risk or liability, then Lion may refuse to provide such SUMF Item in connection with Delek Logistics’ provision of services to third parties.
(b)      If subsequent to the date hereof one or more additional SUMF Items not specifically described herein, but which are being produced or utilized by Lion or its Affiliates in the normal course of their operations at the Refinery Site (“ Additional SUMF Items ”), are or become reasonably necessary to operate or maintain the Relevant Assets and any Additional Improvements, Lion shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such Additional SUMF Items on terms and conditions consistent with the provision of the existing SUMF Items by Lion. The Annual Service Fee with respect to such Additional SUMF Items may be increased in accordance with Article 4 of this Agreement.
3.3      Use of SUMF Items . Delek Logistics agrees to utilize the SUMF Items solely in connection with its ownership, operation and maintenance of the Relevant Assets and any Additional Improvements so long as such use complies with the terms of the Throughput and Rail Offloading Agreements; provided, however , that no provision of this Agreement shall obligate Delek Logistics in any way to utilize all or part of the SUMF Items.
3.4      SUMF Assets . Subject to Article 8 , Lion shall be responsible for operating and maintaining the SUMF Assets, at its sole cost and expense, in accordance with Standard Operating Practice. Except for any capital improvement project proposed by Delek Logistics under Article 6 or undertaken by Delek Logistics under Article 5 , Lion shall be responsible for all costs and expenses of any capital improvements to, or acquisitions of additional, SUMF Assets. In the event Lion fails to promptly make or commence and diligently prosecute any repairs or replacements or maintenance required to be made by Lion to any SUMF Assets under this Agreement, Delek Logistics at its

9



option, after Lion’s failure to cure such default on or before 10 days after notice to Lion, may make the repairs or replacements and perform the maintenance for and on behalf of Lion, and may offset the cost thereof against the Annual Service Fee coming due; provided, however , that if Delek Logistics reasonably believes in good faith that such SUMF Asset cannot be repaired or replaced on commercially reasonable terms, Delek Logistics will be entitled to liquidated damages from Lion in an amount equal to any reductions in the Minimum Quarterly Throughput Payment (as defined in the Rail Offloading Agreement) pursuant to Section 9(b) of the Rail Offloading Agreement caused by the failure to repair or replace such SUMF Asset. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an emergency exists, Delek Logistics may take reasonable steps to protect its property, and make the repairs and replacements and perform the maintenance for and on behalf of Lion without notice to Lion.
3.5      Access . The Lease and Access Agreements set forth the relative rights of Delek Logistics and Lion with respect to (a) access by Delek Logistics to the buildings and other assets owned or leased by Lion located at the Refinery Site that are reasonably necessary for the operation of the Relevant Assets and any Additional Improvements and (b) access by Lion to the Premises in order to inspect, repair or maintain any SUMF Assets, and such section is incorporated herein by reference.
ARTICLE 4
ANNUAL SERVICE FEE
4.1      Annual Service Fee; Monthly Payment . Within 30 days following the end of each calendar month, Delek Logistics will pay Lion an amount (the “ Monthly Payment ”) equal to the sum of (a) the product of (x) one-twelfth (1/12) and (y) the aggregate of all fees set forth on Exhibit A (the “ Annual Service Fee ”) and (b) the direct costs or good faith estimates thereof, without markup, of electricity, gas, water and steam allocated to the Relevant Assets for the provision by Lion and its Affiliates to Delek Logistics during such calendar month of all the SUMF Items described in Exhibit A . The Monthly Payment for the first month under the Term of this Agreement will be prorated based on the number of days elapsed from the date of this Agreement through the last day of the first calendar month and the number of days in such calendar month.
4.2      Increases in Annual Service Fee .
(a)      The Annual Service Fee shall be adjusted on July 1 of each calendar year commencing on July 1, 2015, by an amount equal to the change rounded to four decimal places of the Producers Price Index-Commodities-Finished Goods, (PPI), et al. (“ PPI ”), produced by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureaus of Labor Statistics; provided that the Annual Service Fee shall never be increased by more than 3% for any such calendar year. If the PPI index change is negative in a given year then there will be no change in the Annual Service Fee. If the above index is no longer published, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to agree on a new index that gives comparable protection against inflation and the same method of adjustment for increases or decreases in the new index shall be used to calculate increases or decreases in the Annual Service Fee. If Delek Logistics and Lion are unable to agree, a new index will be determined by arbitration in accordance with Section 9.1 .

10



(b)      Lion may also increase the Annual Service Fee for any calendar year by an amount equal to the actual cost to Lion of providing increased quantities of any SUMF Item or of providing any Additional SUMF Items pursuant to Section 3.2(a) and Section 3.2(b) of this Agreement.
ARTICLE 5
CONNECTION FACILITIES
5.1      Connection Facilities .
(a)      Where necessary, Delek Logistics shall install or cause to be installed, at the expense of Delek Logistics or Lion as mutually agreed, one or more Connection Facilities, which shall be of a quality and type reasonably necessary to establish appropriate interconnections between the Relevant Assets and the SUMF Assets. The design of any necessary Connection Facilities shall be submitted by Delek Logistics for review by Lion. Lion shall have 30 days in which to notify Delek Logistics of any modifications that are necessary to conform the design to Standard Operating Practices and to comply with requirements of Governmental Authorities, otherwise Lion shall be deemed to have approved such design.
(b)      Lion and Delek Logistics shall reasonably cooperate with one another with respect to the installation, operation and maintenance of the Connection Facilities so as to minimize any disruption to the operation of the Refinery Site, the Relevant Assets and the SUMF Assets.
ARTICLE 6
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS
6.1      Capital Improvements Relating to Provision of SUMF Items .
(a)      Delek Logistics may submit from time to time to Lion written requests for Lion to undertake capital improvement projects relating to the provision by Lion of SUMF Items. Any such requests shall specify in reasonable detail the capital improvements to be made, any permits that may be required, the estimated cost of such capital improvements, any proposed changes to this Agreement, and any other relevant information relating to such capital improvement project. Lion agrees that it will consider in good faith any such request, but Lion shall have no obligation to agree to undertake any such capital improvement project and may reject any request by Delek Logistics. Lion shall provide Delek Logistics a written explanation for the rejection of any request. If Lion agrees to undertake any such capital improvement project, Delek Logistics shall be responsible for all costs associated with such project, without duplication of other amounts paid or payable by Delek Logistics under this Agreement, including, without limitation: (i) the cost of completing the capital improvements; (ii) Lion’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with such project; and (iii) any increased costs of operation incurred or to be incurred by Lion as a result of such project; provided, however , that if other Persons receive any of the benefits of such capital improvement project, such other Persons shall bear their respective pro rata shares of all costs associated with such project (based upon and only to the extent of the relative benefits received by them), and Delek Logistics’ costs with respect thereto shall be reimbursed promptly by Lion as,

11



when, if and to the extent savings are received or as, when, if and to the extent the other Person utilizes such benefits.
(b)      If for any reason a capital improvement project relating to the provision by Lion of SUMF Items is not completed pursuant to Section 6.1(a) , and such capital improvement project is in accordance with applicable required engineering and regulatory standards, and the Parties agree that the capital improvement project would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact on the operations or efficiency of the SUMF Assets or the provision of the SUMF Items by Lion or result in any material additional unreimbursed costs to Lion, then Delek Logistics may proceed with the construction of the capital improvement project. Upon completion of construction, Delek Logistics shall be the owner and operator of such capital improvement project. The Parties agree that any capital improvement project constructed by Delek Logistics pursuant to this Section 6.1(b) shall be treated as the separate property of Delek Logistics.

Each Member and its Affiliates (including, if applicable, the Operator) may engage, directly or indirectly, without the consent or approval of the other Members or the Company, in the businesses conducted by such Member and its Affiliates as of the Effective Date and in any other business opportunities, transactions, ventures or other arrangements of any nature or description, independently or with others, including business of a nature which may be competitive with or the same as or similar to the business of the Company, regardless of the geographic location of such business, and without any duty or obligation to account to the other Members or the Company in connection therewith. Nothing herein is intended to create a partnership, joint venture, agency or other relationship creating fiduciary or quasi-fiduciary duties or similar duties and obligations or subject the Members to joint and several or vicarious liability or to impose any duty, obligation or liability that would arise therefrom with respect to any or all of the Members or the Company. To the extent that, at law or in equity, a Member has any fiduciary or other duty to the Company or to any other Member pursuant to this Agreement (other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement), such duty is hereby eliminated to the extent permitted under the Act and expressly disclaimed by the Members; provided , however , that the foregoing shall not eliminate the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

16




provided in Section 6.9(b), each Member (and its designated Board Member) shall be permitted to vote its Percentage Interest in its own self-interest. No Member or Board Member who (directly or through an Affiliate, including the Operator) acquires knowledge of a potential transaction, agreement, arrangement or other matter that may be an opportunity for the Company shall have any duty to communicate or offer such opportunity to the Company or any other Member, and such Member or Board Member shall not be liable to the Company, to any Member or any other Person for breach of any fiduciary or other duty by reason of the fact that such Member pursues or acquires such opportunity for itself or its Affiliate directs such opportunity to another Person or does not communicate such opportunity or information to the Company. Neither the Company nor any Member shall have any right, by virtue of this Agreement, to share or participate in such other businesses, investments or activities of a Member or to the income or proceeds derived therefrom.
2.9      Expansion Projects . Notwithstanding Section 2.8:

Any Expansion Project Notice shall contain a reasonably detailed explanation of all material aspects of the proposed Expansion Project, including (i) a good faith estimate of the costs and expenses of developing, operating and maintaining such proposed Expansion Project, (ii) the incremental revenues to be derived from the Expansion Project, (iii) the estimated time period from the start of construction until the time the Expansion Project is expected to commence commercial service, (iv) a description of all material provisions of any proposed transportation, throughput or similar commercial contracts in respect of the Expansion Project and to which the Company and any other Person may be a party, (v) the projected annualized return of the Expansion Project, together with evidence reasonably sufficient to support the calculation thereof, and (vi) the proposed construction manager and construction management agreement for the Expansion Project.
(b)      If the Rangeland Member is the Proposing Member, then the Delek Member shall have 60 days from receipt of the Expansion Project Notice to elect to participate in the proposed Expansion Project by delivering written notice thereof to the Company and the Rangeland Member. If the Delek Member elects to participate in the Expansion Project, the Members will fund the development and construction of the Expansion Project in proportion to their Percentage Interests pursuant to Capital Calls. If the Delek Member does not elect to participate in the Expansion Project, then if (and only if) the Expansion Project meets the Economic Threshold, the Rangeland Member may nonetheless cause the Company to undertake the Expansion Project, in which event (i) the Rangeland Member will fund 100% of amounts to develop and construct the Expansion Project via Capital Calls (and no other funds of the Company shall be used), (ii) the Delek Member will have no obligation to fund such amounts and (iii) the Members’ Percentage Interests will be adjusted accordingly (and Exhibit A shall be deemed to be amended to reflect such adjusted Percentage Interests). In all cases, once in-service, all revenues, operating costs and maintenance capital expenditures of any Expansion Project will be shared between the Members in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests.

17




(c)    If the Delek Member is the Proposing Member, then the Rangeland Member shall have 60 days from receipt of the Expansion Project Notice to approve the proposed Expansion Project by delivering written notice thereof to the Company and the Proposing Member. If the Rangeland Member approves the Expansion Project, the Members will fund the development and construction of the Expansion Project in proportion to their Percentage Interests pursuant to Capital Calls. If the Rangeland Member does not approve the Expansion Project, the Company shall not proceed with the Expansion Project.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.9, Board Members voting a greater than 50% Percentage Interest may cause the Company to pursue an Expansion Project that has a projected cost of construction and development of less than $[*CONFIDENTIAL*] and the Members will fund the development and construction of such Expansion Project in proportion to their Percentage Interests pursuant to Capital Calls.
(e)    If the Company undertakes an Expansion Project, the Company shall cause the Operator to prepare and deliver an Expansion Project budget to the Company to manage the development, construction and operation of the Expansion Project, which shall be subject to Board approval. If necessary, the Company and the Operator shall amend the applicable C&O Agreements, or to the extent necessary, enter into a new construction agreement, to accommodate the Expansion Project.
2.10      Extension Projects . Either Member may develop and construct Extension Projects and may connect Extension Projects to the Project at the State Line Terminal in Loving County, Texas or the Midland Delivery Facility in Midland, Texas (each as set forth on Exhibit B) or an intermediate point on the Project approved by the Board; provided that (i) the crude to be delivered into the Project meets the specifications set forth in the applicable Tariff and (ii) the connection is completed pursuant to a connection agreement with the Company. Connection of any Extension Project to the Project shall be at the connecting Member’s sole cost and expense. If any Extension Project would cause the RIO Pipeline or another portion of the Project to become FERC jurisdictional, the Member proposing to connect such Extension Project shall notify the Company and the other Member of such fact and shall not be entitled to connect the Extension Project to the Project or deliver crude oil into the Project from that Extension Project until permitted under applicable Law (including the Company having on file with FERC an applicable tariff). The Members shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company to take necessary and appropriate steps to facilitate the connection of Extension Projects.
2.11      Restrictions on Financing . The Board by Special Consent may elect to cause the Company to obtain financing in connection with the Company Business by a combination of Capital Contributions and debt financing. The Company will obtain any such debt financing upon commercially reasonable terms acceptable to the Board and, if applicable, in accordance with the Approved Budget and any specific parameters adopted by the Board. Each Member agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with and assist the Company in its efforts to obtain any debt financing related to the Project. The Company may replace any debt financing related to the Project with either temporary or permanent credit facilities. The Operator shall be permitted without any further approval of the Board (but in accordance with the Approved Budget or as required to fund expenses to address an emergency in the Operator’s reasonable discretion, with any such emergency authority terminating upon the conclusion of the emergency and any remediation or repairs necessitated thereby) to make drawings under any such

18




debt financing or other financing approved by the Board as provided herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such debt financing can be recourse or require credit support from the Delek Member without the prior written consent of the Delek Member in its sole and absolute discretion.

3.6      Restrictions on the Transfer of a Membership Interest . A Member may Transfer a Membership Interest only in accordance with Laws and the applicable provisions of Sections 3.6, 3.7, 3.8 and 3.9. Any purported Transfer in breach of Law or of the terms of this Agreement shall be null and void ab initio , and the Company shall not recognize any such prohibited Transfer.
(a)      Except as otherwise provided herein, unless such action is approved by the Board, the Rangeland Member may not effect a Transfer other than in compliance with Section 3.7(b) and the Delek Member may not effect a Transfer other than pursuant to a Qualifying Offer in compliance with Sections 3.7(c), 3.7(d) and 3.7(e).

(e)      The Company shall not be bound or otherwise affected by any Transfer of any Membership Interest of which the Company has not received notice pursuant to Section 3.8.

21




the relationship between the transferor and the transferee (or a change of Control of such transferor or transferee) after the permitted Transfer with the effect that the transferor has indirectly Transferred Membership Interests to the transferee in a Transfer that would not have been permitted as a direct Transfer under this Article III had such change in relationship occurred prior to the Transfer).

The Delek Member shall have the right and option, but not the obligation, to either accept the Sale Offer or to make a counter-offer (the “ Counter-Offer ”), in either case by providing written notice to the Rangeland Member within 30 days of receiving the Sale Offer. Any Counter-Offer must be to purchase all of the Rangeland Member’s Membership Interest and include the cash purchase price, the date on which the Counter-Offer will expire and other material terms and conditions under which the Delek Member proposes to acquire the Rangeland Member’s Membership Interest. The Rangeland Member shall be entitled to accept or reject the Counter-Offer in its sole discretion and shall notify the Delek Member within 30 days of receiving the Counter-Offer whether it accepts or rejects the Counter-Offer. If the Delek Member accepts the Sale Offer or the Rangeland Member accepts the Counter-Offer, the Parties shall proceed to negotiate definitive documentation reflecting the terms and conditions set forth in the Sale Offer or Counter-Offer, as the case may be. If the Parties are unable to execute definitive acquisition documents with respect to the transaction contemplated by the Sale Offer or Counter-Offer, as the case may be, within 60 days of the Delek Member’s acceptance of the Sale Offer or the Rangeland Member’s acceptance of the Counter-Offer, then the Delek Member shall be deemed to have waived all its rights under this Section 3.7(b) and the Rangeland Member shall be permitted to pursue an alternate sale transaction with any Third Party; provided, however, that if the Delek Member properly made a Counter-Offer, then for so long as the Counter-Offer has not expired and may be accepted by the Rangeland Member, the Rangeland Member shall not be entitled to consummate a transaction for the sale of its Membership Interests to a Third Party for consideration that is less than the cash purchase price contained in the Counter-Offer. If the Rangeland Member does not (i) enter into a definitive written agreement with a Third Party in accordance with the foregoing within 90 days after the later to occur of (x) the expiration or rejection of the Sale Offer without the Delek Member making a valid Counter-Offer and (y) the

22




expiration or rejection of the Counter-Offer, or (ii) consummate such Transfer pursuant to such definitive written agreement within 90 days after the execution thereof, the Rangeland Member may not Transfer any of its Membership Interest without complying again in full with this Section 3.7(b).

(ii)      The Delek Member may elect to terminate the proposed sale of its Membership Interest in the Tag-Along Transfer (and shall not otherwise be deemed to owe any duty or responsibility to the Rangeland Member to proceed), in which case, the obligations under this Section 3.7(c) in respect of such Tag-Along Transfer shall cease.
(iii)      If for any reason the Rangeland Member elects to terminate or otherwise not to sell its Membership Interest in the Tag-Along Transfer or such Tag-Along Transfer should fail to close, the Rangeland Member must comply with the provisions set forth in this Section 3.7(c), to the extent applicable, prior to making any subsequent Transfer of all or any portion of its Membership Interest.
(d)      Drag-Along Right . If the Rangeland Member and its Affiliates desire to Transfer all of their Membership Interests to a ready, willing and able Transferee (the “ Drag-Along Sale ”) then the Rangeland Member may, after complying with Section 3.7(b), provide written notice thereof (the “ Drag-Along Notice ”) to the Delek Member, which such notice must include the terms and conditions of the Drag-Along Sale on substantially the same (or better) terms and conditions as those to be received by the Rangeland Member. The Rangeland Member shall have the right to cause the Delek Member and its Affiliates to Transfer all of their Membership Interests in the Drag-Along Sale on substantially the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Drag-Along Notice; provided that (i) if the Drag-Along Sale occurs prior to the third anniversary of the Project In-Service Date, the cash consideration payable to the Delek Member and its Affiliates in connection with such Drag-Along Sale must be equal to or greater than [*CONFIDENTIAL*]% of the aggregate Capital Contributions of the Delek Member and its Affiliates in respect of the Membership Interest to be sold in the Drag-Along Sale and (ii) the consideration for the Rangeland Member’s Membership Interests must be equal to or greater than the purchase price contained in any applicable Counter-Offer.

23




Transfer such Membership Interest (the “ Subject ROFR Interest ”) to the Rangeland Member. If the Delek Member’s Membership Interest is deemed a Subject ROFR Interest pursuant to Section 3.7(f) or (g), then the Delek Member shall comply with this Section 3.7(e). Any such offer shall be made in the form of an irrevocable written notice (the “ Offer Notice ”) to Transfer all (but not less than all) of the Subject ROFR Interest and shall contain a description of the price and other material terms and conditions of the transaction in which the Delek Member proposes to Transfer the Subject ROFR Interest, including the name of the ready, willing and able Transferee and the consideration specified, except that in the event that the Subject ROFR Interest was so deemed pursuant to Section 3.7(f) or (g), the Offer Notice shall specify that the consideration to be paid shall be the Fair Market Value of the Subject ROFR Interest. The Rangeland Member shall have 30 days (the “ Option Period ”) after receipt of the Offer Notice within which to advise the Delek Member whether or not it will acquire the Subject ROFR Interest upon the terms and conditions contained in the Offer Notice. If, within the Option Period, the Rangeland Member elects to acquire the Subject ROFR Interest, then the Rangeland Member and the Delek Member shall close such transaction no later than 60 days after the last day of the Option Period.
(ii)      The right herein created in favor of the Rangeland Member is an option to acquire all (but not less than all) of the Subject ROFR Interest offered for sale by the Delek Member. If the Rangeland Member declines or fails to elect to acquire all of the Subject ROFR Interest in accordance with this Section 3.7(e), the Delek Member may Transfer such Subject ROFR Interest to the Transferee named in the Offer Notice delivered to the Rangeland Member on terms no more favorable to the Transferee than those described in such Offer Notice. If the Transfer of the Subject ROFR Interest does not occur in accordance with the terms of such Offer Notice within 90 days after the last date of the Option Period, the Delek Member may not Transfer any of such Subject ROFR Interests without complying again in full with this Section 3.7(e).
(iii)      Upon consummation of any such Transfer (whether to the Rangeland Member or any other Person), such Transferee, with its Membership Interest, shall automatically become a party to, and be bound by, this Agreement and shall thereafter have all of the rights and obligations of a Member hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Transfers pursuant to this Section 3.7(e) must also comply with and be governed by the terms, conditions and procedures set forth in Sections 3.6, 3.8 and 3.9.
(iv)      Subject to the prior written consent of the Delek Member or the Rangeland Member, as applicable, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, either Member may assign its rights of first refusal under this Section 3.7(e) to any of its Affiliates.
(f)      Security Interest . If either Member should permit any Security Interest on any of its Membership Interests and a creditor or trustee-in-bankruptcy seeks to commence foreclosure remedies or proceedings upon all or any portion of the Membership Interests of such Member by a legal or equitable proceeding, the affected Member shall notify the other Member in writing, or if the affected Member fails to provide the required notice within five Business Days, the Company shall have the right to provide the required notice to the other Member (and such notice shall be deemed an Offer Notice for purposes of Section 3.7(e)(i)) and the entire

24




Membership Interest owned by the affected Member shall be deemed to be the subject of a proposed Transfer (subject to the Security Interest) and, therefore, a Subject ROFR Interest offered to the Rangeland Member (in the case of the Delek Membership Interest) or the Delek Member (in the case of the Rangeland Member), at a price equal to the Fair Market Value of such Membership Interest, and the affected Member shall be obligated to sell its Membership Interest in accordance with Section 3.7(e) and this Section 3.7(f). In the case of the application of this Section 3.7(f) to the Rangeland Member, Section 3.7(e) shall apply to the Rangeland Member in the same manner and to the same extent such Section would otherwise apply to the Delek Member.
(g)      Dissolution; Bankruptcy . If either Member (i) is dissolved and wound up, or (ii) becomes Bankrupt, the affected Member shall notify the other Member in writing, or if the affected Member fails to provide such notice within five Business Days, the Company shall have the right to provide such notice to the other Member (and such notice shall be deemed an Offer Notice for purposes of Section 3.7(e)(i)) and the entire Membership Interest owned by the affected Member shall be deemed to be the subject of a proposed Transfer and, therefore, a Subject ROFR Interest offered to the other Member at a price equal to the Fair Market Value of such Membership Interest, and the affected Member shall be obligated to sell its Membership Interest in accordance with Section 3.7(e) and this Section 3.7(g). In the case of the application of this Section 3.7(g) to the Rangeland Member, Section 3.7(e) shall apply to the Rangeland Member in the same manner and to the same extent such Section would otherwise apply to the Delek Member.
(h)      Closing; Transfer Taxes . At the closing of the Transfer of a Membership Interest pursuant to any of Sections 3.7(b), (c), (d), (e), (f) or (g), the Transferee shall deliver to the Members Transferring their Membership Interests the full consideration agreed upon. Any membership interest transfer or similar taxes involved in such sale shall be paid by the Members Transferring their Membership Interests and each such Member shall provide the Transferee with such evidence of such Transferring Member’s authority to Transfer hereunder and such tax lien waivers and similar instruments as the Transferee may reasonably request.
(i)      Governmental Approvals . If any Governmental Entity consent or approval is required with respect to any Transfer, the Transferee shall have a reasonable amount of time (not to exceed 60 days from the date upon which such Transfer would have been otherwise consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any longer period for as long as a Member is diligently attempting to obtain the consent or approval) to obtain such consent or approval. All Members shall use reasonable, good faith efforts to cooperate with the Transferee attempting to obtain, and to assist in timely obtaining, such consent or approval; provided that no Member shall be required to incur any out-of-pocket costs or additional liability or to sell or divest of any assets in connection with such cooperation and assistance. After the expiration of any applicable waiting period, such Transferee shall forfeit its rights to acquire the Subject ROFR Interest with respect to such specific transaction; provided , however , that such forfeiture shall not limit or otherwise affect the forfeiting Transferee’s rights with respect to any subsequent proposed Transfer.
(j)      No Release . Subject to Section 3.7(a), no Transfer of a Membership Interest shall effect a release of any of the Members Transferring their Membership Interests (or

25




their applicable Affiliates) from any liabilities or obligations to the Company or the other Members that accrued prior to the Transfer.
(k)      Right to Appoint Successor Operator . If the Rangeland Member and its Affiliates transfer all of their Membership Interests to a single transferee or a group of affiliated transferees, such transferee(s) shall have the right to appoint the successor Operator (subject to Section 6.15) and cause the Company to enter into replacement construction or operating agreements on substantially the same terms as the C&O Agreements.
3.8      Documentation; Validity of Transfer . The Company shall not recognize for any purpose any purported Transfer of all or any part of a Membership Interest unless and until (a) the applicable provisions of Sections 3.6 and 3.7 have been satisfied and (b) the Company has received a document in a form acceptable to the Company executed by the Member Transferring its Membership Interest (or if the Transfer is on account of the death, incapacity, or liquidation of the Member, its representative) and the Transferee. Such document shall (i) include the notice address of the Transferee and such Person’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement with respect to the Membership Interest or part thereof being obtained, (ii) set forth the Membership Interest and Percentage Interest of the Member Transferring its Membership Interest and the Transferee after the Transfer (which together must total the Membership Interest and Percentage Interest of the Member Transferring its Membership Interest before the Transfer), (iii) contain a representation and warranty that the Transfer was made in accordance with all Laws (including state and federal securities Laws) and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, (iv) include a legally binding agreement of the Transferee to be bound by this Agreement from and after the date such Transferee becomes a Member and (v) if the Person to which the Membership Interest or part thereof is Transferred is to be admitted to the Company as a Substituted Member, its representation and warranty that the representations and warranties in Section 3.4 are true and correct with respect to such Person. Each Transfer and, if applicable, admission complying with the provisions of this Section 3.8 and the applicable provisions of Sections 3.6, 3.7 and 3.9(b) is effective against the Company as of the first Business Day of the Calendar Month immediately succeeding the Calendar Month in which (1) the Company receives the document required by this Section 3.8 reflecting such Transfer, and (2) the other requirements of Sections 3.6, 3.7 and 3.9(b) have been met.
3.9      Additional Members; Substituted Members .
(a)      Additional Persons, including Transferees, may be admitted to the Company as Members or Substituted Members as provided under the terms of this Section 3.9. Any admission of an additional Member (including a new Member for new value provided to the Company) involving the issuance of additional Membership Interests requires the approval of the Board; provided , however , that any Transferee of any Membership Interest pursuant to a Transfer made in accordance with Section 3.7 shall be admitted automatically as an additional Member or Substituted Member, as applicable, upon compliance with the applicable provisions of Sections 3.6, 3.8 and 3.9(b) with respect to such Transfer, but without the consent or approval of any other Person.

Further, no Member shall be presumed to have misused any information solely because an Affiliate of such Member is the Operator nor shall such Member have any greater obligation than any other Member with respect to Confidential Information solely because an Affiliate of such Member is the Operator. The Members acknowledge that a breach of the provisions of this Section 3.10(b) may cause irreparable injury to the Company or another Member for which monetary damages are inadequate, difficult to compute, or both.

If, within 10 days following receipt of the notice described above in clause (a), the Appraiser cannot or is unwilling to act as the independent appraiser, and the Members (including to the extent applicable, any Designee) otherwise fail to agree on an independent appraiser, any Member (or its Designee) may request the regional office of the CPR Institute covering Houston, Texas to designate an independent appraiser who shall be qualified by his or her education, training and experience in the crude oil transportation and storage industry to determine the Fair Market Value of such Subject ROFR Interest, whose determination of the independent appraiser shall be final and binding on the Members.

(i)      Minimum Gain Chargeback . If there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any Company taxable year, then each Member shall be allocated items of Company income and gain for such taxable year (and, if necessary, for subsequent years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)(2).

(ii)      Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain Chargeback .

This Section 5.3(b)(ii) is intended to comply with the partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain chargeback requirement of Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
(iii)      Qualified Income Offset . If any Member unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation, or distribution of the type contemplated by Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), then items of income and gain shall be allocated to all such Members (in proportion to the amounts of their respective deficit Adjusted Capital Accounts) in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the deficit balance in the Adjusted Capital Account of such Member as quickly as possible. It is intended that this Section 5.3(b)(iii) qualify and be construed as a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

32




(iv)      Limitation on Allocation of Net Loss . If the allocation of Net Loss (or items of loss or deduction) to a Member as provided in Section 5.3(a) hereof would create or increase an Adjusted Capital Account deficit, then there shall be allocated to such Member only that amount of Net Loss (or items of loss or deduction) as will not create or increase an Adjusted Capital Account deficit. The Net Loss (or items of loss or deduction) that would, absent the application of the preceding sentence, otherwise be allocated to such Member shall be allocated to the other Members in proportion to their relative Percentage Interests, subject to the limitations of this Section 5.3(b)(iv).
(v)      Certain Additional Adjustments .

(vii)      Member Nonrecourse Deductions . The Member Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated each year to the Member that bears the economic risk of loss (within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752-2) for the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable.
(viii)      Curative Allocations . The allocations set forth in Section 5.3(b)(i)– (vii) hereof (the “ Regulatory Allocations ”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b) and 1.704-2(i). Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.3(a), the Regulatory Allocations shall be taken into account in allocating other items of income, gain, loss and deduction among the Members so that, to the extent possible, the net amount of such allocations of other items and the Regulatory Allocations to each Member shall be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each such Member if the Regulatory Allocations had not occurred.
(c)      Tax Allocations .
(i)      Except as provided in Section 5.3(c)(ii) hereof, for income tax purposes under the Code and the Regulations each item of Company income, gain, loss, deduction and credit for federal income tax purposes shall be allocated among the Members consistently with the manner in which corresponding items are allocated for “book” purposes pursuant to this Section 5.3.

33




(ii)      In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the applicable Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property contributed to the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value at the time of its contribution to the Company. If the Gross Asset Value of any Company property is adjusted in accordance with clause (c) or (d) of the definition of Gross Asset Value, then subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction shall take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of such property for federal income tax purposes and its Gross Asset Value as provided in Code Section 704(c) and the related Regulations. For purposes of such allocations, the Company shall elect the remedial allocation method described in Regulation Section 1.704-3(d).
(iii)      All items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit allocated to the Members in accordance with the provisions hereof and basis allocations recognized by the Company for federal income tax purposes shall be determined without regard to any election under Section 754 of the Code which may be made by the Company.
(iv)      If any deductions for depreciation or cost recovery are recaptured as ordinary income upon the transfer of Company properties, the ordinary income character of the gain from such transfer shall be allocated among the Members in the same ratio as the deductions giving rise to such ordinary character were allocated.
(d)      Allocation and Other Rules .
(i)      Net Profits, Net Losses, and any other items of income, gain, loss, or deduction will be allocated to the Members pursuant to this Section 5.3 as of the last day of each Fiscal Year, provided that Net Profits, Net Losses, and the other items will also be allocated at any time the Gross Asset Values of the Company’s assets are adjusted pursuant to paragraph (b) of the definition of “Gross Asset Value.”
(ii)      For any Fiscal Year or other period during which any part of a Membership Interest in the Company is transferred between the Members or to another Person, the portion of the Net Profits, Net Losses and other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit that are allocable with respect to such part of a Membership Interest in the Company shall be apportioned between the transferor and the transferee using any method allowed pursuant to Section 706 of the Code and the applicable Regulations as chosen by the Board with Required Consent.

(iv)      For purposes of determining a Member’s proportional share of the Company’s “excess nonrecourse liabilities” within the meaning of Regulations Section

34




1.752-3(a)(3), each Member’s interest in Net Profits shall be such Member’s Percentage Interest.
(v)      The Members acknowledge and are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations made by this Section 5.3 and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 5.3 in reporting their shares of Net Profits, Net Losses and other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit for federal, state and local income tax purposes.

(c)      If, during the period covered by an Approved Budget, the Operator determines that an adjustment to the estimated costs, expenses, Ordinary Expenditures or Capital Expenditures set forth in such Approved Budget is necessary or appropriate, then the Operator shall submit (or cause to be submitted) to the Board for approval an adjusted Budget setting forth such adjusted or additional line items; provided, however, that no approval is necessary for (i) an increase up to the Permitted Budget Increase, (ii) expenses required to address an emergency in the Operator’s reasonable discretion or (iii) an increase necessary to enable the Operator to perform the services under the Construction Agreement in accordance with the Standards (as defined in the Construction Agreement) or the services under the Operating Agreement in accordance with the Standard of Care (as defined in the Operating Agreement) as determined by Operator in its reasonable discretion.

Any Board Member may waive notice of

37




any meeting by the execution of a written waiver prior or subsequent to such meeting. The attendance of a Board Member at any meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where a Board Member attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the grounds that the meeting was not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of any regular or special meeting of the Board, need be specified in the waiver of notice of such meeting.

(b)      if to the Members, to each of the Members listed on Exhibit A at the address set forth therein.
Each such notice, demand or other communication shall be effective, if sent to the physical street address in this Section 13.12, when delivered at such address, or if sent by email, upon confirmation of the sender’s delivery of the email to the recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, return e-mail or other evidence of delivery of email); provided that, if such notice, demand or other communication sent by email is not sent during the recipient’s normal business hours, such notice, email or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the recipient’s opening of business on the next Business Day.
13.13      Remedies .
(a)      For so long as a Member is in Default, the rights, but not obligations, of such Member hereunder, including the Member’s and its Board Member’s rights to vote or consent and the Member’s right to receive distributions from the Company pursuant to Article IV, shall be suspended; provided , however , that subject to the application of Section 13.1, any distributions that would have been paid by the Company to such Member except for the application of this Section 13.13(a) shall be deposited by the Company into an account owned and controlled by the Company, and upon (i) such Member no longer being in Default and (ii) if applicable, the final resolution of any dispute between the Company and such Member related to any Default, the funds held in such account shall be distributed as follows: (A) if and to the extent applicable, on behalf of such Member to the Company to satisfy any obligations owed by such Member to the Company and (B) with respect to any funds remaining after the distribution required under subparagraph (A), to such Member.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Members acknowledge that an award of damages for failure to comply with Sections 3.6, 3.7, 3.10 and 13.14 would not be an adequate remedy for the Members attempting to enforce such provisions, and accordingly the Members expressly authorize any such Members to bring an action against the other Members to compel the specific performance by such other Members of their obligations to comply with such provisions.

60

(c)      Any officer may resign at any time. Such resignation shall be made in writing and shall take effect at the time specified therein, or if no time is specified, at the time of its receipt by the Board.

Any Designated Officer may be removed either (i) by the Member who designated such Designated Officer or (ii) by the Board for Cause. If a Designated Officer resigns or is removed, the Member designating such Designated Officer shall have the right to designate a replacement for such Designated Officer, who shall be appointed by the Board to fill such position as a Designated Officer.
2.11      Management of Expansion Projects . All other provisions of this Agreement notwithstanding, in the event of an Expansion Project in which not all of the Members elect to participate, the management and decision making of all matters relating to the Expansion Project, shall be carried out by the Participating Members in the manner set out in Section 2.12 below.
2.12      Expansion Projects.
(a)      At any time from and after the Effective Date any Member (any such Person, a “ Proposing Party ”) may propose an Expansion Project by delivering a written request (each, an “ Expansion Project Request ”) to the Company and the non-proposing Members (each such non-proposing Member, a “ Non-Proposing Member ”). The Board shall timely review such Expansion Project Request and the Expansion Project Budget. If the Board approves such Expansion Project Request and Expansion Project Budget pursuant to Section 2.4(d) , subject to Section 2.12(b)(ii) , if applicable, each Non-Proposing Member shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in the Expansion Project pursuant to this Section 2.12 . If the Board does not approve an Expansion Project Request, neither the Company nor the Members shall participate in such Expansion Project. Any Expansion Project Request shall contain a reasonably detailed explanation of all material aspects of the proposed Expansion Project, including (A) a good faith estimate of the costs and expenses of developing, operating and maintaining such proposed Expansion Project (the “ Expansion Project Budget ”) (including any proposed incremental increase to the Fixed Fee payable to the Operator, and mutually agreeable to the Operator and the Proposing Party), (B) the incremental revenues to be derived from the Expansion Project, (C) the estimated time period from the start of construction until the time the Expansion Project is expected to commence commercial service, (D) a description of all material provisions of any proposed transportation, throughput or similar commercial contracts in respect of the Expansion Project and to which the Company and any other Person may be a party, (E) the proposed construction manager and construction management agreement for the Expansion Project and (F) a written accounting methodology to reasonably and adequately account for and track the revenues, capital expenditures, operating expenses and other Project Costs, distributions and any other items necessary to determine when [*CONFIDENTIAL*] % Payout has been achieved in the event an Expansion Project becomes a Special Expansion Project (the [*CONFIDENTIAL*] % Payment Methodology ”). The Non-

-13-





Proposing Members shall have sixty (60) days from the date of Board approval of the Expansion Project Request to notify the Proposing Party of their election to participate or not participate in such proposed Expansion Project (such sixty (60) day period, the “ Initial Election Period ”). During the first thirty (30) days of the Initial Election Period, any Non-Proposing Member may object or request clarification (the “ Initial Election Period Objection ”) with respect to the [*CONFIDENTIAL*] % Payment Methodology and the Initial Election Period shall be extended another sixty (60) days from the date of the Initial Election Period Objection. As part of its objection, the Non-Proposing Members shall prepare their version of the [*CONFIDENTIAL*] % Payment Methodology (the “ Objecting Party Methodology ”). If such Initial Election Period Objection is not resolved by such Members within fifteen (15) days, such objection shall be resolved by an Independent Auditor within thirty (30) days. As its review, the Independent Auditor shall review the [*CONFIDENTIAL*]% Payment Methodology and the Objection Methodology and the supporting materials. As part of the resolution, the Independent Auditor shall choose between the two methodologies. The cost of the Independent Auditor shall be borne by the Company. Such Initial Election Period and the applicable right to elect can be waived via such Member’s written consent. Failure of a Non-Proposing Member to give timely notice of its election within the Initial Election Period shall be deemed an election by such Non-Proposing Member not to participate in such proposed Expansion Project.
(b)      If (i) all Non-Proposing Members elect to participate in such proposed Expansion Project or (ii) such proposed Expansion Project is a Required Upgrade (in which case all Members are deemed to have elected to participate in such Required Upgrade and all Members shall be deemed to have agreed to such Required Upgrade), notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (A) unless the Members otherwise agree, the design, procurement and construction of such Expansion Project shall be managed by the Company and the applicable contractor (proposed by the Proposing Party and approved by the Board) in accordance with this Agreement and the relevant construction agreement for such Expansion Project, and (B) such Expansion Project shall be operated and maintained by the Company and the Operator in accordance with this Agreement and the Operating Services Agreement (which shall be amended as described in clause 2.12(c)(iii)(A) ).
(c)      If (1) some, but less than all, of the Non-Proposing Members, or (2) none of the Non-Proposing Members, in each case, elect to participate in the proposed Expansion Project (each such Expansion Project, a “ Special Expansion Project ”), then, upon the termination of the Initial Election Period (as may be extended pursuant to Section 2.12(a) ), the Proposing Party and the Non-Proposing Members(s) that timely elected to participate in the Special Expansion Project, if any (such Non-Proposing Member(s), the “ Interested Non-Proposing Members ”), shall proceed in accordance with the remainder of this Section 2.12(c) .
(i)      Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the Members and the Board Members appointed by any Member who has not elected to participate in the proposed Expansion Project will have no right to vote on or make decisions relating to the Special Expansion Project.

-14-





(ii)      The Interested Non-Proposing Member(s) that agreed to or approved the Special Expansion Project Budget for such Special Expansion Project, together with the Proposing Party, shall be referred to herein as “Participating Member(s)” with respect to such Special Expansion Project. If there are no such Interested Non-Proposing Members, then the Proposing Party alone shall be deemed to be the sole “Participating Member .” Unless the Participating Member(s) otherwise agree, each Participating Member’s interest in the Special Expansion Project shall be that portion of the Special Expansion Project that such Participating Member’s Percentage Interest bears to the number of Membership Interests owned by all of the Participating Member(s) (each, a “Project Interest ”).
(iii)      Until [*CONFIDENTIAL*] % Payout with respect to any Special Expansion Project, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Participating Member(s) shall conduct such Special Expansion Project in strict accordance with, and all aspects of such Special Expansion Project shall be subject to, the following provisions:
(A)      the Participating Members shall conduct the Special Expansion Project at their sole direction, cost and expense and shall contribute their respective shares of the costs of the Special Expansion Project to the Company within fifteen (15) days of receipt of a Request for Advance, the Special Expansion Project (such funds, the “ Special Expansion Project Contributions ”). Other than Special Expansion Project Contributions, no funds of the Company shall be used towards the Special Expansion Project, and neither the Company nor the Non-Participating Members shall bear any capital expenditure, operating expense, construction cost or other Project Cost or expense attributable to such Special Expansion Project; provided however, that the Board and Operator shall participate (at the Participating Member(s)’ sole cost) in such Special Expansion Project in an administrative capacity as set forth in the Operating Services Agreement. Subject to Section 2.5 , to the extent necessary, the Company, the Participating Member(s) and the Member that is the Operator shall negotiate an amendment to the Operating Services Agreement in a manner reasonably necessary to accommodate the Special Expansion Project, to allow the Operator to operate and maintain the Special Expansion Project as contemplated by the Operating Services Agreement. Any increase in the Fixed Fee payable to Operator shall be mutually agreed upon;
(B)      all assets purchased with Special Expansion Project Contributions or otherwise integral to the Special Expansion Project shall be the sole property of the Company for all purposes and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Operating Services Agreement and the relevant construction management agreement with respect to control by or responsibility of the Participating Members, all such assets and all aspects of the Special Expansion Project shall be subject to the authority and control of the Board;
(C)      all Liabilities arising from or attributable to the Special Expansion Project prior to [*CONFIDENTIAL*]% Payout shall be borne solely by the Participating Members, including defaults by one or more of the Participating Members, abandonment of the Special Expansion Project by the Participating Members and Third Party Claims or Claims of the Company or any Non-Participating Member; the Participating Members

-15-





shall not be entitled to indemnification under Article 4 with respect to any Liability arising from or attributable to the Special Expansion Project prior to [*CONFIDENTIAL*] % Payout, including any Third Party Claims or Claims asserted by the Company or any Non-Participating Member; and the Participating Members shall jointly and severally indemnify (in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4 ) the Company and the Non-Participating Members with respect to any Liabilities arising prior to [*CONFIDENTIAL*] % Payout to the fullest extent permitted by Law; and
(D)      at all times prior to [*CONFIDENTIAL*] % Payout, (1) the Company will require the Operator to establish and maintain, to the satisfaction of the Non-Participating Members, the accounts and accounting methodology necessary to reasonably and adequately account for the revenues, capital expenditures, operating expenses and other Project Costs, distributions and any other items necessary to determine when [*CONFIDENTIAL*] % Payout has been achieved, (2) the Company shall cause the Operator to furnish quarterly statements of such accounts to the Members, and (3) the Participating Member(s) shall be allocated all Special Net Losses and Special Net Profits (or items thereof) and exclusively entitled to receive all distributions of Special Available Cash resulting from the Special Expansion Project, which Special Available Cash shall be distributed to the Participating Members in accordance with their respective Project Interests.
(iv)      From and after [*CONFIDENTIAL*] % Payout with respect to any Special Expansion Project, (i) all Special Net Profits and Special Net Losses shall become part of the aggregate Net Profits or Net Losses of the Company and all Members will be allocated such Net Profits or Net Losses in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests, (ii) the remaining portion of the Special Expansion Project Budget, if any, with respect to such Special Expansion Project shall be deemed to be added to the then-current Budgets, (iii) all Special Available Cash shall be treated as Available Cash, and (iv) the balances of the Members’ Special Capital Accounts related to such Special Expansion Project shall be transferred to such Member’s Capital Account.
(v)      If for any reason (i) the Special Expansion Project fails to be commenced on the later of (A) ninety (90) days after the commencement date set forth in the Expansion Project Request or (B) thirty (30) days after the commencement date set forth in the Special Expansion Project Budget or (ii) prior to the commencement of the Special Expansion Project, any Member reasonably and in good faith believes that the development or operation of such Special Expansion Project becomes or is reasonably expected to become materially different than that which was originally set forth in the Expansion Project Request, then such Member shall promptly notify the Company and the other Members and such Special Expansion Project shall be deemed to be rejected by all Members (including the Proposing Member). If the Participating Member(s) believe the objecting Member is not acting in good faith and does not have a reasonable basis for its objection, then such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Section 10.3 . Should any litigation result from the provisions of this Section 2.12(c)(v) , the relevant Special Expansion Project shall be temporarily suspended pending the outcome of such litigation. Following such objection (or

-16-





the final determination of the court pursuant to Section 10.3 , if applicable), if one or more Participating Member(s) thereafter desire to continue to proceed with such Special Expansion Project, then the Participating Member(s) shall be required to re-propose the Special Expansion Project pursuant to a new Expansion Project Request in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 2.12 prior to proceeding with such Special Expansion Project.
(d)      Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary:
(i)      if Section 2.12 (c)(v) applies and the Non-Proposing Members elect not to participate in a proposed Expansion Project, then the Proposing Party shall not proceed with such project without complying again with the provisions of this Section 2.12 ;
(ii)      if the Participating Members abandon a Special Expansion Project or if a Special Expansion Project is deemed rejected pursuant to Section 2.12(c)(v) , (i) all Special Net Profits and Special Net Losses shall be the responsibility of the Participating Members in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests, (ii) all Special Available Cash shall be distributed to the Participating Members in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests, and (iii) the balances of the Members’ Special Capital Accounts related to such Special Expansion Project shall not be transferred to such Member’s Capital Account; and
(iii)      the Operator shall have the right to make an initial determination as to whether a proposed Expansion Project materially and adversely affects the operations of the other portions of the System based on the exercise of its reasonable discretion. If the Operator determines that a proposed Expansion Project would materially and adversely affect the operations of the other portions of the System, the Operator may disallow such proposed project. If the Participating Members holding a majority of the Project Interests thereafter disagree with the Operator’s determination, such dispute will be resolved in accordance with Section 10.3 .
2.13      Information . In addition to the requirements of Article 9 , the Members agree to provide to the Company any information reasonably requested by the Company for the purpose of complying with applicable Laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Member shall be obligated to provide such information to the Company to the extent such disclosure (i) could reasonably be expected to result in the breach or violation of any contract or applicable Law from the perspective of such Member, (ii) involves secret, confidential or proprietary information of such Member, or (iii) involves any violation of applicable privilege; provided that, in the alternative, such Member may provide such information directly to such Governmental Body.

-42-





the Regulations under Code Sec. 704) upward or downward to reflect any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to each Company Property, as if such Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss had been recognized upon an actual sale of each such Property immediately prior to such contribution and had been allocated to the Members in accordance with Article 5 and this Article 9 .

-43-





purposes, shall be allocated first in a manner consistent with the requirements of Code Sec. 704(c) to take into account the difference between the Agreed Value of such property and its adjusted tax basis at the time of contribution. In the case of Adjusted Property, such items shall be allocated in a manner consistent with the principles of Code Sec. 704(c) to take into account the difference between the Carrying Value of such property and its adjusted tax basis. Any elections or other decisions relating to the allocations shall be made by the Company in any manner permitted by Sec. 1.704-3(b), (c) and (d) of the Regulations. If the item of Adjusted Property was originally Contributed Property, the allocation required by this Section 9.3 also shall take into account the other requirements of this Article 9 .

Whenever the income, gain and loss of the Company allocable under this Agreement consist of items of different character for tax purposes (e.g., ordinary income, long-term capital gain, interest expense, etc.), the income, gain and loss for tax purposes allocable to each Member shall be deemed to include the Member’s pro rata share of each such item, except as otherwise required by the Code and the Regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company realizes depreciation recapture income pursuant to Code Secs. 1245 or 1250 (or other comparable provision) as the result of the sale or other disposition of any asset, the allocations to each Member hereunder shall be deemed to include the same proportion of such depreciation recapture as the total amount of deductions for tax depreciation of such asset previously allocated to such Member bears to the total amount of deductions for tax depreciation of such asset previously allocated to all Members, as provided in the Regulations. This Section 9.3(b) shall be construed to affect only the character, rather than the amount, of any items of income, gain and loss.
9.4      Special Regulatory Allocations . The following special allocations shall be made in the following order:
(a)      Minimum Gain Chargeback . Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if there is a net decrease in Minimum Gain during any tax year of the Company, then, prior to any other allocations provided for in this Agreement, a Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for the year (and, if necessary, for succeeding years) equal to that Member’s share of the net decrease in Minimum Gain in accordance with Sec. 1.704-2(f) of the Regulations and other applicable Regulations. The items to be allocated shall be determined in accordance with Sec. 1.704-2(f)(6) of the Regulations.
(b)      Member Minimum Gain Chargeback . If during a taxable year of the Company there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain, any Member with a share of that Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain (determined under Sec. 1.704-2(i)(5) of the Regulations) as of the beginning of the year shall be allocated items of income and gain for the year (and, if necessary, for succeeding years) equal to that Member’s share of such

-44-





net decrease in accordance with Sec. 1.704-2(i) of the Regulations and other applicable Regulations.
(c)      Qualified Income Offset . If any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions described in subsections (4), (5) or (6) of Sec. 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) of the Regulations, then items of income and gain shall be specially allocated to the Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate as quickly as possible, to the extent required by the Regulations, any deficit in a Member’s Capital Account caused by the unexpected adjustment, allocation or distribution, but only to the extent that the Member does not otherwise have an obligation to restore its Capital Account deficit. This Section 9.4(c) is intended to satisfy the “qualified income offset” provisions of Sec. 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) of the Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
(d)      Allocation of Nonrecourse Deductions . Items of loss, deduction and Code Sec. 705(a)(2)(B) Expenditures attributable under Sec. 1.704-2(c) of the Regulations to increases in the Company’s Minimum Gain shall be allocated, as provided in Sec. 1.704-2(e) of the Regulations, to the Members in accordance with the allocation provisions set forth in Article 5 .

“System” as used herein means the pipeline(s) that Carrier owns an interest in and to which the rules and regulations stated herein apply.
“Transferor” as used herein means the entity transferring volumes pursuant to an intrasystem transfer of title to Crude Petroleum as described in Item No. 145 to these rules and regulations, INTRASYSTEM TRANSFERS.
“Transferee” as used herein means the entity accepting volumes pursuant to an intrasystem transfer of title to Crude Petroleum as described in Item No. 145 to these rules and regulations, INTRASYSTEM TRANSFERS.
25.    NOMINATION, MINIMUM QUANTITY
(a)    Unless otherwise stated on a tariff making reference to these rules and regulations, Nominations for the transportation of Crude Petroleum for which Carrier has facilities will be accepted into Carrier’s System under these rules and regulations in quantities of not less than [*CONFIDENTIAL*] Barrels aggregate from one or more Shippers as operations permit and provided such Crude Petroleum is of similar quality and characteristics as is being transported from receipt point to destination point; except that Carrier reserves the right to accept any quantity of Crude Petroleum from lease tanks or other facilities to which Carrier’s facilities are connected if such quantity can be consolidated with other Crude Petroleum such that Carrier can make a single delivery of not less than [*CONFIDENTIAL*] Barrels, and Carrier will not be obligated to make any single delivery of less than [*CONFIDENTIAL*] Barrels, unless Carrier’s operations dictate otherwise. The term “single delivery” as used herein means a delivery of Crude Petroleum in one continuous operation to one or more Consignees into a single facility, furnished by such Consignee or Consignees, to which Carrier is connected.
(b)    Crude Petroleum will be transported only under a Nomination accepted by the Carrier from origins (or facilities connected to Carrier’s gathering System when gathering service is to be performed by the Carrier) to

Page 3 of 10

Caddo Pipeline LLC        F.E.R.C. No. xx.0.0

destinations when a tariff covering the movement is lawfully in effect and on file with the FERC as to interstate traffic and with the appropriate state commission covering intrastate traffic.
(c)    Any Shipper desiring to tender Crude Petroleum for transportation shall make a Nomination to the Carrier in writing before 12:00 noon Central Standard Time/Central Daylight Saving Time, whichever is applicable, on the twenty-fifth (25th) of the month preceding the movement. When the twenty-fifth (25th) of the month falls on a weekend, Nominations will be required prior to 12:00 noon Central Standard Time/Central Daylight Saving Time, whichever is applicable, on the preceding workday. When the twenty-fifth (25th) of the month falls on a holiday, Nominations will be required prior to 12:00 NOON Central Standard Time/Central Daylight Saving Time, whichever is applicable, three (3) workdays prior to the holiday. Unless such notification is made, the Carrier will be under no obligation to accept Crude Petroleum for transportation.
(d)    When Nominations submitted by Shippers to Carrier on or before the twenty-fifth (25th) day of the month preceding the operating month do not exceed the capacity of the System or any line segment thereof, additional Nominations may be accepted by the Carrier to fill capacity. These additional Nominations will be accepted only if they do not impair the movement of Crude Petroleum nominated before the twenty-fifth (25th) day of the preceding month.
30.    LINE FILL AND TANK BOTTOM INVENTORY REQUIREMENTS
Prior to delivering Barrels out of Carrier’s System, each Shipper will be required to supply a pro rata share of Crude Petroleum necessary for pipeline and tankage fill to ensure efficient operation of Carrier’s System. Crude Petroleum provided by Shippers for this purpose may be withdrawn only after: (1) shipments ha ve ceased and the Shipper has notified Carrier in writing of its intention to discontinue shipments in Carrier’s System, and (2) Shipper balances have been reconciled between Shipper and Carrier. Carrier may require advance payment of transportation charges on the volumes to be cleared from Carrier’s System, and any unpaid accounts receivable, before final delivery will be made. Carrier shall have a reasonable period of time from the receipt of said notice, not to exceed six months, to complete administrative and operational requirements incidental to Shipper withdrawal.
35.    TITLE
The Carrier shall have the right to reject any Crude Petroleum, when nominated for transportation, which may be involved in litigation, or the title of which may be in dispute, or which may be encumbered by a lien or charge of any kind, and it may require of the Shipper satisfactory evidence of its perfected and unencumbered title or satisfactory indemnity bond to protect Carrier. By nominating Crude Petroleum, the Shipper warrants and guarantees that the Shipper has good title thereto and agrees to hold Carrier harmless for any and all loss, cost, liability, damage and/or expense resulting from failure of title thereto; provided, that acceptance for transportation shall not be deemed a representation by the Carrier as to title.
40.    SPECIFICATIONS AS TO QUALITY RECEIVED
(a)    No Crude Petroleum will be accepted for transportation except merchantable Crude Petroleum which is properly settled and contains not more than [*CONFIDENTIAL*] percent ( [*CONFIDENTIAL*] %) of basic sediment, water, and other impurities, and has a temperature not in excess of one hundred and twenty degrees (120°) Fahrenheit and its gravity, viscosity, pour point, and other characteristics are such that it will be readily susceptible to transportation through the Carrier’s existing facilities, and will not materially affect the quality of other shipments or cause disadvantage to other Shippers and/or the Carrier. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Carrier may at its discretion accept Crude Petroleum from Shipper that does not meet the foregoing specifications due to unusual circumstances, emergencies, or events of force majeure (such as sea storms or shut-in platforms). In such case, however, Shipper must notify Carrier fully in writing of the characteristics of such Crude Petroleum and Shipper shall then secure from the producer or connecting carrier or shall provide itself, in writing, to Carrier an assumption of all liability and agree to hold Carrier harmless from and against any loss, cost or disadvantage to other Shippers, and other pipelines, or to Carrier arising from such transportation. In addition, Carrier reserves the right to reject (any and all of, but not limited to) the following shipments: (1) Crude Petroleum having a Reid Vapor Pressure in excess of [*CONFIDENTIAL*] pounds per square inch absolute and/or an API gravity in excess of [*CONFIDENTIAL*] ; and (2) Crude Petroleum where the Shipper or Consignee has failed to comply with applicable laws, rules, and regulations made by government authorities regulating shipment of Crude

Caddo Pipeline LLC        F.E.R.C. No. xx.0.0

Petroleum. If Crude Petroleum is accepted from tankage, settled bottoms in such tanks must not be above a point four inches (4”) below the bottom of the pipeline connection with the tank from which it enters Carrier’s facilities.
(b)    Quality specifications of a connecting carrier may be imposed upon Carrier when such limits are less than that of Carrier, in which case the limitations of the connecting carrier will be applied.
(c)    Carrier may, from time to time, undertake to transport other or additional grades of Crude Petroleum and if, in the opinion of Carrier, sufficient quantities are not nominated or facilities are not available to justify continued transportation of other or additional grades, Carrier may, after giving reasonable notice to Shippers who may be affected, cease transporting particular grades of Crude Petroleum.
(d)    If, upon investigation, Carrier determines that a Shipper has delivered to Carrier’s facilities Crude Petroleum that has been contaminated by the existence of and/or excess amounts of impure substances, including but not limited to, chlorinated and/or oxygenated hydrocarbons, arsenic, lead and/or other metals, such Shipper will be excluded from further entry into applicable segments of the System until such time as quality specifications are met to the satisfaction of Carrier. Further, Carrier reserves the right to dispose of any contaminated Crude Petroleum blocking its System. Disposal thereof, if necessary, may be made in any reasonable commercial manner, and any liability associated with the contamination or disposal of any Crude Petroleum shall be borne by the Shipper introducing the contaminated Crude Petroleum into Carrier’s System.
(e)    Carrier will from time to time determine which grades of Crude Petroleum it will regularly transport as a Common Stream between particular receipt points and destination points on its pipeline Systems. Carrier will inform all subscribers to tariffs for the System affected by such determination and this will constitute the sole holding out of the Carrier in regard to the grades of Crude Petroleum transported. Crude Petroleum quality and general characteristics include, but are not limited to, whole crude properties such as A.P.I. gravity, sulfur, S. & W., Reid Vapor Pressure, pour point, viscosity, hydrogen sulfide, metals, nitrogen, chlorinated and/or oxygenated hydrocarbons, salt content, and product yields.
(f)    Unless stated otherwise in written notice provided by Carrier to all subscribers to tariffs for the System affected, Carrier will not segregate Crude Petroleum of a kind and/or quality not currently transported through Carrier’s facilities.
45.    COMMON STREAM CRUDE PETROLEUM - CONNECTING CARRIERS
When both receipts from and deliveries to a connecting pipeline of substantially the same grade of Crude Petroleum are scheduled at the same interconnection, Carrier reserves the right, with the cooperation of the operator of the connecting pipeline, to offset like volumes of such Common Stream Crude Petroleum in order to avoid the unnecessary use of energy which would be required to physically pump the offsetting volumes. When this right is exercised, Carrier will make the further deliveries for the Shipper involved from Carrier’s Common Stream Crude Petroleum.
50.    SHIPMENTS, MAINTENANCE OF IDENTITY
(a)    Carrier shall not be liable to Shipper for changes in gravity or quality of Shipper’s Crude Petroleum which may occur from commingling or intermixing Shipper’s Crude Petroleum with other Crude Petroleum in the same Common Stream while in transit. Carrier is not obligated to deliver to Shipper the identical Crude Petroleum nominated by Shipper; Carrier will deliver the grade of Crude Petroleum it is regularly transporting as a Common Stream.
(b)    Carrier shall have no responsibility in, or for, any revaluation or settlements which may be deemed appropriate by Shippers and/or Consignees because of mixing or commingling of Crude Petroleum shipments between the receipt and delivery of such shipments by Carrier within the same Common Stream.
55.    ADDITIVES
Carrier reserves the right to require, approve or reject the injection of corrosion inhibitors, viscosity or pour point depressants, drag reducing agent, or other such additives in Crude Petroleum to be transported.
60.    DUTY OF CARRIER
Carrier shall not be required to transport Crude Petroleum except with reasonable diligence, considering the quality of the Crude Petroleum, the distance of transportation and other material elements. Carrier cannot commit to delivering Crude Petroleum to a particular destination, at a particular time.

Caddo Pipeline LLC        F.E.R.C. No. xx.0.0

65.    ORIGIN FACILITIES REQUIRED FOR AUTOMATIC CUSTODY TRANSFER
Where Consignor (or Shipper) elects to deliver Crude Petroleum to the Carrier at point of origin through automatic custody transfer facilities (in lieu of tankage), the Consignor (or Shipper) shall furnish the required automatic measuring and sampling facilities and the design, construction, and calibration of such facilities must be approved by the Carrier and any appropriate regulatory body. In the event automatic custody transfer is made by meters, the Consignor (or Shipper) shall also furnish whatever pumping service is necessary to insure that the Crude Petroleum being delivered to the meter is at a pressure in excess of the bubble point of the liquid.
70.    RECEIPT AND DESTINATION FACILITIES REQUIRED
The Carrier will accept Crude Petroleum for transportation only when the Shipper or Consignee has provided the necessary facilities for delivering Crude Petroleum into the System at the point of origin and has made the necessary arrangements for shipment beyond or has provided the necessary facilities for receiving said Crude Petroleum as it arrives at the destination.
75.    NOTICE OF ARRIVAL, DELIVERY AT DESTINATION, DEMURRAGE
(a)    The obligation of the Carrier is to deliver the quantity of Crude Petroleum to be transported, less deductions, at the specified destination. Such delivery may be made upon twenty-four (24) hours notice to the Shipper or Consignee who shall accept and receive said Crude Petroleum from the Carrier with all possible dispatch into tanks or receptacles arranged for or provided by the Shipper or Consignee.
(b)    Commencing after the first seven o’clock a.m., after expiration of said 24-hour notice, Carrier shall assess a demurrage charge on any part of said Crude Petroleum shipment offered for delivery and not taken by Shipper or Consignee; the demurrage charge will be [N] [*CONFIDENTIAL*] cents per Barrel per day for each day of 24 hours or fractional part thereof. After expiration of said 24-hour notice, Carrier’s liability for loss, damage or delay with respect to Crude Petroleum offered for delivery but not taken by Shipper or Consignee shall be that of a warehouseman only.
(c)    If the Shipper, or Consignee, is unable or refuses to receive said Crude Petroleum as it arrives at the specified destination, the Carrier reserves the right to make whatever arrangements for disposition of the Crude Petroleum it deems appropriate in order to clear its pipeline. Any additional expenses incurred by the Carrier in making such arrangements shall be borne by the Shipper or Consignee.
80.    GAUGING, TESTING AND DEDUCTIONS
(a)    Crude Petroleum shipped hereunder shall be measured and tested by representatives of the Carrier or by automatic equipment approved by the Carrier. Quantities shall be determined by dynamic or static measurement methods in accordance with appropriate American Petroleum Institute (API) standards, latest revision, and adjusted to base (reference or standard) conditions.
(b)    When, in Carrier’s opinion, a lease operator or connecting carrier’s tanks are unsafe or unsuitable for use in custody transfer because of improper connections, high bottom accumulations of any extraneous matter, incrustations on the inside of the tank walls, or any other conditions unacceptable to Carrier, Carrier may reject the use of such tank until the unacceptable conditions have been corrected. Alternatively, in the case of incrustation inside any tank, Carrier may determine and apply a correction factor to ascertain the correct tank capacity.
(c)    Corrections will be made for temperature from observed degrees Fahrenheit to 60 degrees Fahrenheit and for pressure to 14.696 psia. Carrier will deduct the full amount of sediment, water and other impurities as the centrifugal or other test may show.
(d)    Unless otherwise indicated on a tariff, a deduction of [*CONFIDENTIAL*] will be made to cover evaporation, interface losses, and other normal losses during transportation.

Page 6 of 10

Caddo Pipeline LLC        F.E.R.C. No. xx.0.0

(e)    All receipts of Crude Petroleum having an API gravity of 45 degrees or above shall also be subject to a deduction to cover shrinkage and evaporation. Such deduction shall be determined in accordance with the following table:
API Gravity, Degrees
Deduction
For Incremental
Evaporation
& Shrinkage
45.0 through 54.9
55.0 through 64.9
65.0 through 74.9
75.0 and above
[*CONFIDENTIAL*] %
[*CONFIDENTIAL*] %
[*CONFIDENTIAL*] %
[*CONFIDENTIAL*] %

(f)    After consideration of all of the factors set forth in this Item No. 80, a net balance will be determined as the quantity deliverable by Carrier, and transportation charges will be assessed on this net balance.
85.    APPORTIONMENT WHEN NOMINATIONS ARE IN EXCESS OF FACILITIES
(a)    When there shall be nominated to Carrier, for transportation, more Crude Petroleum than can be immediately transported on a line segment, the transportation furnished by Carrier shall be apportioned among Shippers on an equitable basis. Line segments will be prorated separately if necessary.
(b)    Space in each segment will be allocated among “Regular Shippers” and any “New Shippers” as follows:
1.
The capacity of the line segment being prorated shall be divided by the total of all volumes nominated by Regular Shippers and New Shippers. The resultant fraction will be the “proration factor”.
2.
New Shippers shall be allocated up to a total of [*CONFIDENTIAL*] percent of the available line segment capacity. Each New Shipper shall be allocated space equal to its nominated volumes multiplied by the proration factor, except that in any month for which Carrier is allocating capacity on a System, the capacity allocated to a Regular Shipper shall not be reduced by more than [*CONFIDENTIAL*] percent of the Regular Shipper’s base period shipments.
3.
The remaining capacity shall be allocated among Regular Shippers in proportion to their base period shipments.
(c)    The “base period” is a period of [*CONFIDENTIAL*] months beginning [*CONFIDENTIAL*] months prior to the month of allocation and excluding the month preceding the month of allocation, except that a New Shipper must ship on a particular line segment for [*CONFIDENTIAL*] consecutive calendar months before it will become eligible to be classified as a Regular Shipper on such line segment. A “Regular Shipper” is any Shipper having a record of movements in the line segment being prorated, during the base period. A “New Shipper” is a Shipper who is not a Regular Shipper. In no event will any portion of allocated capacity to a New Shipper be used in such a manner that it will increase the allocated capacity of another Shipper beyond the allocated capacity that Shipper is entitled to under the provisions stated in this Item No. 85. Carrier may require written assurances from responsible officials of Shippers regarding use of allocated capacity stating that this requirement has not been violated. In the event any New Shipper shall, by any device, scheme or arrangement whatsoever, make its allocated capacity available to another Shipper, or in the event any Shipper shall receive and use any allocated capacity from a New Shipper, then, in the month following discovery of such violation, the allocated capacity of a New Shipper will be reduced to the extent of the excess capacity made available and the allocated capacity of a Shipper will be reduced to the extent of excess capacity used.
(d)    No Nominations shall be considered beyond the amount that the nominating party has readily accessible for shipment. If a Shipper is unable to tender Crude Petroleum equal to the space allocated to it, Carrier will reduce that Shipper’s volumes for the succeeding month by the amount of allocated throughput not utilized during the preceding month if apportionment is necessary.

90.    REQUIRED SHIPPER INFORMATION
(a)    At any time, upon written request of the Carrier, on a non-discriminatory basis, any prospective or existing Shipper shall provide to the Carrier information that will enable the Carrier to enforce the terms of this tariff. Such information may include, but is not limited to, the names of any Affiliates of the Shipper or prospective Shipper, the legal business name of the Shipper or prospective Shipper and the registered business address of the Shipper or prospective Shipper.
(b)    The Carrier shall not be obliged to accept Crude Petroleum for transportation from an existing or prospective Shipper if the Shipper or prospective Shipper fails to provide to the Carrier any information requested in accordance with Item 90(a) within ten (10) days of the Carrier’s written request, or if the Carrier reasonably determines that any of the information provided pursuant to Item 90(a) is false.
95.    APPLICATION OF RATES & CHARGES
Crude Petroleum accepted for transportation shall be subject to the rates and charges in effect on the date of receipt of such Crude Petroleum by the Carrier, irrespective of the date of Nomination. Unless otherwise stated in an individual tariff making reference to these rules and regulations, trunk line transportation and all other lawful charges will be collected on the basis of the net quantities of Crude Petroleum delivered and gathering charges will be collected on the basis of net quantities of Crude Petroleum received. All net quantities will be determined in the manner provided in Item 80 (GAUGING, TESTING AND DEDUCTIONS).
100.    APPLICATION OF RATES FROM AND TO INTERMEDIATE POINTS
(a)    For Crude Petroleum accepted for transportation from any point on Carrier’s lines not named in a particular tariff, which is intermediate to a point from which rates are published in said tariff, through such unnamed point, the rate published from the next more distant point specified in such tariff will apply. For Crude Petroleum accepted for transportation to any point not named in a particular tariff which is intermediate to a point to which rates are published in said tariffs, through such unnamed point, the rate published therein to the next more distant point specified in the tariff will apply.
(b)    If an intermediate point is to be used on a continuous basis for more than 30 days, Carrier will file a tariff applicable to the transportation movement within 30 days of the start of the service
105.    CHARGE FOR COMPENSATION FUND FEES INCURRED BY CARRIER
In addition to all other charges accruing on Crude Petroleum accepted for transportation through Carrier’s facilities, a per Barrel charge will be assessed and collected in the amount of any tax, fee, or other charge levied against Carrier by any Federal, State or local agency for the purpose of creating a fund for the reimbursement of parties who sustain costs or losses resulting from oil pipeline industry operations. If a per Barrel charge is assessed, the amount of such charge will be stated in a FERC or state tariff.
110.    TRUCK, TANKER AND BARGE LOADING AND UNLOADING
(a)    Shipments unloaded from tank trucks into Carrier’s facilities may be subject to a per-Barrel charge, if specified on individual tariffs making reference to these rules and regulations. Such charge will be in addition to all other charges.
(b)    Carrier will receive or deliver Crude Petroleum across its dock facilities from both tankers or barges where dock facilities are equipped to handle tankers or barges. Shippers shall indemnify and hold Carrier harmless against any and all claims (whether made by the vessel owner or any other party) for demurrage or any other charges arising out of any delay of such vessel not caused by Carrier’s negligence.
115.    PAYMENT OF TRANSPORTATION AND OTHER CHARGES
Shipper shall be responsible for payment of transportation and all other charges applicable to the shipment, and may be required to prepay such charges or furnish guaranty of payment satisfactory to Carrier. Payments not received by Carrier in accordance with invoice terms shall be subject to a late charge equivalent to 125% of the prime rate as quoted by a major New York bank, or the maximum rate allowed by law, whichever is less. Carrier shall have a lien on all Crude Petroleum accepted for transportation to cover payment of all charges, including demurrage and late charges and may refuse to make delivery of the Crude Petroleum until all charges have been paid. If said charges, or any part thereof, shall remain unpaid for thirty days after notice of readiness to deliver, the Carrier may sell the Crude Petroleum at public auction. Carrier shall have a lien on Crude Petroleum when there

Page 8 of 10

Caddo Pipeline LLC        F.E.R.C. No. xx.0.0

shall be failure to take the Crude Petroleum at the point of destination as provided in Item No. 75 (NOTICE OF ARRIVAL, DELIVERY AT DESTINATION, DEMURRAGE). Carrier shall have the right to sell said Crude Petroleum at public auction, for cash. The auction will be held between the hours of ten o’clock a.m. and four o’clock p.m. on any day not a weekend or legal holiday, and not less than twenty-four hours after the Shipper has been officially notified of the time and place of such sale and the quantity, general description, and location of the Crude Petroleum to be sold. Carrier may be a bidder and purchaser at such sale. Out of the proceeds of said sale, Carrier shall pay itself for all transportation, demurrage, and other lawful charges, expenses of notice, advertisement, sale and other necessary expenses, and expenses of caring for and maintaining the Crude Petroleum, and the balance shall be held for whomsoever may be lawfully entitled thereto after the auction. If the proceeds of said sale do not cover all expenses incurred by Carrier, the Shipper and/or Consignee are liable to Carrier for any deficiency.
120.    DIVERSION
Subject to Item 25 (NOMINATION, MINIMUM QUANTITY), change in destination or routing will be permitted without additional charge, on written request from the Shipper, provided an applicable tariff is in effect for any requested destination or routing, and provided that no back-haul is required.
125.    LIABILITY OF PARTIES
As a condition to Carrier’s acceptance of Crude Petroleum under this tariff, each Shipper agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Carrier against claims or actions for injury and/or death of any and all persons whomever and for damage to property of or any other loss sustained by Carrier. Shipper, Consignee and/or any third party resulting from or arising out of 1) any breach of or failure to adhere to any provision of this tariff by Shipper, Consignee, their agents, employees or representatives and 2) the negligent act(s), or failure(s) to act of Shipper, Consignee, their agents, employees or representatives in connection with Delivery or Receipt of Crude Petroleum.
The Shipper and Consignee shall be jointly and severally liable for the payment of gathering and transportation charges, fees, and other lawful charges accruing to or due Carrier by Shipper or Consignee, including but not limited to, penalties, interest and late payment charges on Crude Petroleum delivered by Carrier to Consignee. All accrued charges are due on delivery of Crude Petroleum by Carrier to Consignee. Carrier may, at its option, require Shipper or Consignee to pay all such charges and fees in advance or to provide an irrevocable letter of credit satisfactory to Carrier.
(a)    The Carrier while in possession of any of the Crude Petroleum herein described shall not be liable for any loss thereof, damage thereto, or delay, caused by: fire, storm, flood, epidemics, Act of God, terrorism, vandalism, criminal acts, landslides, land collapses, riots, civil disorder, strikes, insurrection, rebellion, war, act of the public enemy, quarantine, the authority of law, requisition or necessity of the Government of the United States in time of war, default of Shipper or Owner, earthquakes, sinkholes, or from any other cause not due to the negligence of Carrier and in no event shall Carrier be liable to Shipper for consequential, incidental or exemplary damages to Shipper. In case of loss of Crude Petroleum in a segregated shipment, then the Shipper and Consignee thereof shall bear the entire loss, damage, or delay that occurs. In case of loss of Crude Petroleum that is not in a segregated shipment, then each Shipper of the grade of Crude Petroleum so lost via the System in which the loss occurs shall share such loss in the proportion that the amount of such grade of Crude Petroleum then in the custody of Carrier for the account of such Shipper in such System bears to the total amount of such grade of Crude Petroleum then in the custody of Carrier in such System.
(b)    Carrier will be obligated to deliver only that portion of a Crude Petroleum shipment remaining after deducting such loss. Transportation charges will be made only on quantities of Crude Petroleum delivered.
(c)    If Crude Petroleum is lost in transit, while in the custody of Carrier, due to causes other than those described in the first paragraph of this Item, Carrier may obtain and deliver to Shipper other Crude Petroleum of the same quantity and grade as that which was lost, but Carrier shall not be obligated to do so. In the alternative, Carrier may compensate Shipper for such loss in money. If Carrier compensates Shipper for such loss in money, the price per Barrel shall be determined as of the date of the loss based on the value of the lost Crude Petroleum.
130.    CLAIMS, SUITS, AND TIME FOR FILING
As a condition precedent to recovery for loss, damage, or delay to shipments, claims must be filed in writing with the Carrier within nine (9) months after delivery of the Crude Petroleum, or, in case of failure to make

Page 9 of 10

Caddo Pipeline LLC        F.E.R.C. No. xx.0.0

delivery, then within nine (9) months after a reasonable time for delivery has elapsed; and suits arising out of such claims shall be instituted against the Carrier only within two (2) years and one (1) day from the day when notice in writing is given by the Carrier to the claimant that the Carrier has disallowed the claim or any part or parts thereof specified in the notice. Where claims are not filed or suits are not instituted thereon in accordance with the foregoing provisions, Carrier will not be liable and such claims will not be paid.
135.    PIPEAGE OR OTHER CONTRACTS
Separate pipeage and other contracts may be required of a Shipper, in accordance with the applicable tariff and these rules and regulations, before any duty of transportation by the Carrier shall arise.
140.    STORAGE IN TRANSIT
The Carrier has working tanks required in the process of transporting Crude Petroleum but no other available tankage and therefore, unless otherwise specifically stated in a tariff making reference to these rules and regulations, Carrier does not have facilities for rendering, nor does it offer, a storage service. Provisions for storage in transit in facilities furnished by Shipper at points on Carrier’s System will be permitted to the extent authorized under individual tariffs lawfully on file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission or a state agency.
145.    INTRASYSTEM TRANSFERS
An intrasystem transfer of title to Crude Petroleum will be allowed on Carrier’s System for a fee of [N] [*CONFIDENTIAL*] cent per Barrel charged to the Transferor; provided, however, that no transfer fee shall be assessed to the Transferor if the Transferor pays the mainline transportation charges to the specified transport point. The Transferee accepting volumes on an intrasystem transfer shall be responsible for payment of transportation charges from the transfer point to destination. Carrier shall not be obligated to recognize any intrasystem transfer and shall incur no liability with respect thereto or for any losses or damages accruing to any party involved in an intrasystem transfer. An intrasystem transfer request, if recognized, shall be confirmed in writing by both the Transferor and the Transferee within seventy-two (72) hours after the request. Such request shall indicate the party to which the transfer is to be made, the amount of Crude Petroleum to be transferred, its location, grade, and a warranty statement of unencumbered title. In addition, the Transferor and Transferee, upon the request of Carrier and at Carrier’s option, shall provide an irrevocable letter of credit in terms satisfactory to Carrier and in an amount necessary to cover all charges and fees.
150.    COMMODITY
Carrier is engaged primarily in the transportation of Crude Petroleum and will not accept any other commodity for transportation under tariffs making reference hereto.
155.    CONNECTION POLICY
Connections to Carrier’s System will only be considered if made by formal written notification to Carrier. All connections will be subject to design requirements necessary to protect the safety, security, integrity and efficient operation of Carrier’s pipeline(s) in accordance with generally accepted industry standards. Acceptance of any request for connection will be subject to compliance with governmental regulations.

Form of Connection Agreement

    



FORM OF PIPELINE CONNECTION AGREEMENT
THIS PIPELINE CONNECTION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is dated this __ day of _______ 201__, between [_____________], a [______________ __________] (“Connecting Party”), and Caddo Pipeline LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Caddo”). Either Connecting Party or Caddo may singularly be hereinafter referred to as “Party” and collectively referred to as “Parties”.
WHEREAS, Caddo is constructing a twelve (12) inch pipeline extending from a point in Longview, Texas to a point in Shreveport, Louisiana (the “Pipeline”);
WHEREAS, Connecting Party owns [___________] in the vicinity of the Pipeline (the “Terminal”);
WHEREAS, Caddo desires to connect its Pipeline to the Terminal with a twelve (12) inch connecting pipeline including an Automatic Custody Transfer Unit (the “ACT”) and an insulated flange, gasket, valve and appurtenances (the “Connection”) downstream of the Terminal to allow the delivery of crude oil whose specifications must be acceptable to Caddo and comply with the applicable Pipeline tariff;
WHEREAS, Caddo will own, operate and maintain the ACT, the Connection and all related facilities downstream of the Connection (as that term is defined herein); and
WHEREAS Connecting Party will own, operate and maintain all related facilities upstream of the Connection (as that term is defined herein).
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

1.
Design, Construction and Installation of Connection and Related Facilities . The Connection and related facilities will be designed, constructed and installed in accordance with both current and generally accepted industry practices applying to crude oil pipelines. The design, construction and installation of the Connection and related facilities shall provide for and be in compliance with the following:
(a)
Caddo will be capable of receiving crude oil into the Pipeline at a minimum rate of [*CONFIDENTIAL*] barrels per hour and a maximum rate of [*CONFIDENTIAL*] barrels per hour; and a minimum operating pressure of [*CONFIDENTIAL*] psi and a maximum operating pressure of [*CONFIDENTIAL*] psi. Caddo will supply a pump or pumps that will be capable of injection of crude oil into the Pipeline and Caddo will supply measurement equipment to conform to the highest of specifications required by Connecting Party (as further set forth in Exhibit A ), or the American Petroleum Institute (“API”) specifications, as of the date of this Agreement.
(b)
The Connection is electrically isolated from the Terminal by an insulating flange gasket (“Insulating Flange”).
(c)
Caddo, at its sole cost, will own or install such supervisory control and line integrity equipment with respect to the Pipeline and downstream facilities, as Caddo deems necessary, to establish pump enable and disable capabilities. Upon reasonable request, each Party will provide, or make available, flow data, data on valve status, pressure and temperature to the other Party at no charge. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that (i) all such data and information generated or received in connection with this subsection (collectively, “Confidential Information”) is proprietary and confidential business information that is owned by each respective Party or its subsidiaries, affiliates members,

1



partners, or shippers, and (ii) neither Party nor any of its subsidiaries, affiliates, members, or partners shall disclose or distribute any such Confidential Information to any person or entity other than each respective Party or their designated subsidiaries, affiliates, members, partners or shippers without the prior written consent of each respective Party, except where such disclosure is mandated by applicable law, rule, or regulation. “Confidential Information” does not include any information that (i) at the time of disclosure or thereafter is or becomes generally available to or known by the public (other than as a result of a disclosure by the receiving Party), (ii) is developed by the receiving Party without reliance on any Confidential Information or (iii) is or was available to the receiving Party on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the disclosing Party that, insofar as is known to the receiving Party after reasonable inquiry, is not prohibited from transmitting the information to the recipient by a contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation to the disclosing Party.
(d)
Connecting Party shall be granted a limited, personal, non-exclusive right to access Caddo’s measurement equipment on an as-needed basis at the Terminal and along the easement upon which the applicable portion of the Connection and related facilities are located. Such right of access is strictly limited to the construction, installation, commissioning, maintenance, operation, testing, witnessing and removal of the Connection and related facilities and Insulating Flange.
(e)
Caddo will furnish a drawing of the Connection and related facilities (which shall be attached hereto as Attachment No. 1).

2.     Measurement and Crude Oil Quality.
(a)
The quality measurements shall be determined by Caddo’s measuring facilities located at the Terminal, which will be maintained and operated by Caddo to meet or exceed the applicable standards specified by Connecting Party’s measurement policies, or to the extent that Connecting Party measurements policy does not address an issue, then the latest edition of the Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards as published by the API shall apply. Caddo shall use reasonable efforts to provide no less than twenty-four (24) hours advance notice to Connecting Party personnel of all meter-proving activities and shall permit Connecting Party personnel to witness such meter proving activities.
(b)
Actual custody transfer of the crude oil from Connecting Party to Caddo shall occur at the Connection.
(c)
Caddo’s measurement tickets and proving reports shall be the primary documents for measurement related to custody transfer, absent proof of fraud or manifest error. Ticket corrections shall be handled on a case-by-case basis and in a manner mutually agreeable.

3.     Operation and Maintenance .
(a)
Caddo shall own, maintain and operate the Connection and related facilities downstream of the Insulating Flange in a good and workmanlike manner on a continuous basis as provided herein during the term of this Agreement.
(b)
Connecting Party shall own, maintain and operate the related facilities upstream of Insulating Flange in a good and workmanlike manner on a continuous basis as provided herein during the term of this Agreement.
(c)
During the term, Caddo will provide the pump and meter at the Terminal per the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The delivery volume will be measured at the outgoing Caddo-owned meter at the Terminal.

4.
Shut-In Rights . Each Party shall have the right to shut-in the Connection at any time a Party deems it reasonably necessary and appropriate in order to protect persons, property, the common stream, or the environment. Each Party will use reasonable efforts to give the other Party at least
twenty-four (24) hour advance written notice of a shutdown, except in the case of an emergency when either Party may shut down immediately, whereby the Party will use reasonable efforts to notify the other Party prior to any such shut-in; however, such Party shall not be liable to the other Party for any cost or damage incurred as a result of such shut-in. The Connection shall be reactivated as soon as any risks to persons, property, or the environment are remedied.

5.     Responsibility and Limitation of Damages.
(a)
Except as provided otherwise in the Agreement, each Party shall be responsible for all claims, losses, suits, liability and expense on account of injury to or death of persons or damage to property caused by or resulting from (a) negligent, grossly negligent or willful acts or omissions on the part of such Party, its employees, agents or contractors in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and (b) responsibilities of such Party imposed by law.
(b)
In the event that any claim, loss, suit, liability and expense is caused in whole or in part by the concurrent negligent or willful acts or omissions of either party, its employees, agents or contractors, then this obligation shall be comparative and each party shall be responsible and liable to the other Party to the extent that such Party’s negligence or fault in connection with the act or omission was the cause of such injury, damage or death .
(c)
Except for and without regard to damages that may be awarded to a third party against a Party to this Agreement, in no event shall either Party be liable for prospective profits or special, incidental, punitive, exemplary, speculative or consequential damages (including, without limitation, loss of value, loss or deferral of production, loss of financial advantage, lost profits or business interruptions), however same may be caused, but shall be limited, to actual damages only.

If the Connection is damaged or any part thereof is destroyed, Parties shall make a prompt, good faith determination as to whether the damaged or partially destroyed facility(ies) can be repaired or restored at a cost that can be recovered. However, the Parties are not obligated to restore the Connection and if the Connection is not repaired or restored to an operable condition then this Agreement shall terminate and Caddo shall remove all related facilities downstream of the Connection without damage or harm to Connecting Party facilities or any equipment or property owned or operated by Connecting Party.

8.
Independent Contractor Status . Should either Party perform work on behalf of the other Party pursuant to this Agreement, said Party shall be deemed an independent contractor and shall not be deemed to be an agent or employee of the other Party.

9.     Term.
(a)
The term of this Agreement shall commence upon the date of the physical delivery of the first barrel of crude oil from the Connection to the Pipeline and shall continue for a period of ten (10) years (the “Initial Term”) and thereafter from year to year until terminated; provided, that either Connecting Party or Caddo shall have the right at any time, after the

3



Initial Term, to terminate the Agreement by giving the other Party at least sixty (60) days advance written notice of such termination.
(b)
Upon termination of this Agreement, Caddo shall, at its sole cost, permanently shut or disconnect the Connection within ten (10) days after written request from Connecting Party and without damage or harm to Connecting Party’s facilities or any equipment or property owned or operated by Connecting Party.

10.
Default. Each Party hereto, whether performing or non-performing, breaching or non-breaching, defaulting or non-defaulting shall be entitled to setoffs, claims, counterclaims, and credits (disregarding whether a Party failed to perform, breached first, or defaulted first) in connection with any payment or the performance of any obligations under or in connection with this Agreement or termination of this Agreement. In case of a breach of this Agreement by either Party, the non-breaching Party shall give the breaching Party notice of the breach and the breaching Party shall have thirty (30) days to cure such breach.
