Item 1.01.    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 29, 2016, PBF Logistics Products Terminals LLC ("Buyer"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PBF Logistics LP ("PBFX" or the "Partnership), entered into a definitive Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Plains Products Terminals LLC (the "Seller"), to purchase the assets of four refined products terminals (the "East Coast Terminals") of the Seller (the "Plains Asset Purchase"). The East Coast Terminals, located in and around Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, include a total of 57 product tanks with a total shell capacity of approximately 4.2 million barrels, pipeline connections to the Colonial, Buckeye, Sunoco Logistics and other proprietary pipeline systems, 26 truck loading lanes and marine facilities capable of handling barges and ships. With the Plains Asset Purchase, PBFX will increase its total shell capacity to over 8.1 million barrels.

The aggregate purchase price for the Plains Asset Purchase is $100 million in cash. The Plains Asset Purchase is expected to close during the second quarter of 2016, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, the absence of legal proceedings restraining, or making illegal consummation of, the Plains Asset Purchase and receipt of regulatory approvals and required consents. PBFX expects to finance the transaction through a combination of cash on hand, borrowings from PBFX's senior secured revolving credit facility and issuance of PBFX equity, which may include common units sold to our indirect parent, PBF Energy. Buyer’s obligation to consummate the Plains Asset Purchase is not conditioned upon the receipt of financing. In addition, PBFX has guaranteed all payment and performance obligations of Buyer under the Purchase Agreement.

Buyer and the Seller have made customary representations and warranties and have agreed to customary covenants in the Purchase Agreement, including the agreement of the Seller, subject to certain exceptions, to maintain the assets being acquired in the ordinary course, to use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with past practice to keep available the services of employees, and maintain existing relationships during the period from the execution of the Purchase Agreement to the closing of the transaction. The Purchase Agreement contains customary termination rights for both Buyer and the Seller, and provides, subject to certain exceptions, that the closing will occur on the fifth business day after satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to closing. There is no assurance that all of the conditions to the consummation of the Plains Asset Purchase will be satisfied. The Purchase Agreement also provides for indemnification rights with respect to, among other things, breaches of representations, warranties or covenants by the parties, subject to the limitations in the Purchase Agreement.

The foregoing description is summary in nature and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1, and incorporated herein by reference.

The Purchase Agreement contains representations and warranties by Buyer and the Seller as of specific dates. The representations and warranties reflect negotiations between the parties to the Purchase Agreement and are not intended as statements of fact to be relied upon by PBFX’s unitholders; in certain cases, the representations and warranties merely represent allocation decisions among the parties; may have been modified or qualified by certain confidential disclosures that were made between the parties in connection with the negotiation of the Purchase Agreement, which disclosures are not reflected in the Purchase Agreement itself; may no longer be true as of a given date; and may apply standards of materiality in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material by unitholders. As such, the representations and warranties are solely for the benefit of the parties to the agreement. The representations and warranties may not describe the actual state of affairs at the date they were made or at any other time, may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement and should not be relied upon as statements of facts.






Item 7.01.    Regulation FD Disclosure.

On February 2, 2016, PBFX issued a press release announcing that it has reached an agreement to purchase the East Coast Terminals. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

In accordance with General Instructions B.2 of Form 8-K, the foregoing information, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information and Exhibits be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements contained in the exhibit to this report reflecting PBFX’s or its management’s expectations or predictions relating to future plans, results, performance, achievements and the like are considered “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, satisfaction of the conditions to the closing of the Plains Asset Purchase and the possibility that the Plains Asset Purchase will not close; timing of the completion of the proposed Plains Asset Purchase; and PBFX’s plans for financing the Plains Asset Purchase.

These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which may be beyond PBFX’s control, that may cause actual results to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.  Factors and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ include but are not limited to the risks described above, and the risks disclosed in PBFX’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.  All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof.

GUARANTY AGREEMENT
This Guaranty dated as of January 29, 2016 (the “Guaranty”), is made by PBF Logistics LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Guarantor”), in favor of Plains Products Terminals LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Beneficiary”).
INTRODUCTION
This Guaranty is given in connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of January 29, 2016 (the “Purchase Agreement”), between the Beneficiary and PBF Logistics Products Terminals LLC (the “Buyer”). The Purchase Agreement requires the Guarantor to execute and deliver this Guaranty to Buyer concurrently with the execution of the Purchase Agreement. The Guarantor believes that it will obtain substantial direct and indirect benefit from the rights and benefits obtained by Buyer under the Purchase Agreement. Therefore, to induce the Beneficiary to enter into the Purchase Agreement, the Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:
AGREEMENT
Section 1.
Guaranty .

1.1     The Guarantor irrevocably guarantees to the Beneficiary the full performance and payment of Buyer’s obligations under the Purchase Agreement, including the indemnification obligations under Article X of the Purchase Agreement subject to the limitations and conditions set forth therein, including, without limitation, the limits set forth in Section 10.3 thereof, and the time limitations from the date of this Guaranty set forth in 10.5 of the Purchase Agreement (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”); provided, however, such time limitations shall be extended indefinitely with respect to any individual obligation as to which Beneficiary has initiated the dispute resolution procedures of Section 12.20 or any other dispute resolution provision of the Purchase Agreement against Buyer and has given written notice to Guarantor within such time limitations in order to enforce the Guaranteed Obligations pertaining to only the individual obligation(s) for which notice was given until such time as such dispute resolution procedures are concluded.

This Guaranty is solely and exclusively for the benefit of the Beneficiary and may not under any circumstances be enforced for the benefit of any third party which is not an assignee of the Beneficiary.
Section 2.
Guaranty Absolute .

2.1     This Guaranty shall be deemed accepted upon receipt by Beneficiary. The Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty are effective immediately, are continuing, and cover all Guaranteed Obligations arising prior to and after the date hereof. This Guaranty may not be revoked by the Guarantor and shall continue to be effective with respect to Guaranteed Obligations arising or created after any attempted revocation by the Guarantor.

2.2     The Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be performed or paid strictly, regardless of any law, regulation, or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Beneficiary with respect thereto. The Guarantor agrees that the Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty shall not be released, diminished, or impaired by, and waives any rights which the Guarantor might otherwise have which relate to:

(a) Any amendment, modification, increase, reduction, extension, or rearrangement of the Guaranteed Obligations, any amendment, supplement, or other modification of the Purchase Agreement, any waiver or consent granted thereunder, including waivers of the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any sale, assignment, delegation, or other transfer of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(b) Any grant of any security or support for the Guaranteed Obligations, including any pledge of collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations or any person guaranteeing or otherwise becoming liable for the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations;






(c) Any impairment of any security or support for the Guaranteed Obligations, including any full or partial release, exchange, subordination, or waste of any collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations or any full or partial release of Buyer, any guarantor, or any other person liable for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(d) Any change in the organization or structure of Buyer, any guarantor, or any other person liable for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; or the insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, or dissolution of Buyer or any other person liable for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations;

2.3     This Guaranty shall continue to be effective for the time periods set forth in Section 1.1 or until all Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably performed or paid in full, at which time this Guaranty shall immediately terminate. Guarantor reserves for itself all rights and defenses of Buyer not expressly waived herein.

Section 3. Unimpaired Collection .

3.1     There are no conditions precedent to the enforcement of this Guaranty. It shall not be necessary for the Beneficiary to exhaust the Beneficiary’s remedies against Buyer or any other person liable for the performance or payment of the Guaranteed Obligations in order to enforce performance or payment by the Guarantor under this Guaranty to enforce any support for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or to enforce any other means of obtaining payment of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Beneficiary shall not be required to mitigate damages or take any other action to reduce, collect, or enforce the Guaranteed Obligations.

3.2     Until all Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably performed or paid in full (and therefore the payment thereof is no longer subject to being set aside or returned under the law), and to the extent of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantor agrees not to take any action pursuant to any rights which it may acquire against Buyer, or any other person liable for the performance or payment of the Guaranteed Obligations under this Guaranty, including any right of subrogation (including any statutory rights of subrogation under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §509), contribution, indemnification, reimbursement, exoneration, or any right to participate in any claims or remedy of the Beneficiary, with any necessary endorsement, to be applied to the Guaranteed Obligations. This Section 3 is not intended to be a permanent waiver of any right of the Guarantor. Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, nothing in this Section 3.2 shall impair or limit the Beneficiary’s rights to enforce this Guaranty against the Guarantor.

Section 4. Miscellaneous .

4.1     The Guarantor hereby warrants to the Beneficiary that the Guarantor now has and will continue to have independent means of obtaining information concerning the affairs, financial condition and business of the Buyer. The Beneficiary shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide the Guarantor with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Buyer which may come into the Beneficiary’s possession.

4.2     No delay on the part of the Beneficiary in the exercise of any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by the Beneficiary of any right or remedy shall preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy; nor shall any modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Guaranty be binding upon either party except as expressly set forth in a writing duly signed and delivered on behalf of both parties.






4.3    This Guaranty shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York. Each of Seller and Buyer (a) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York state court or United States District Court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, and (b) irrevocably waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue in such forums and agrees not to plead or claim that any action in such forums would be inconvenient. If any provision in this Guaranty is held to be unenforceable, such provision shall be severed and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. If a due date for an amount payable is not specified in this Guaranty the due date shall be the date on which the Beneficiary demands payment therefor. The Beneficiary’s remedies under this Guaranty shall be cumulative of all other rights and remedies under applicable law or contracts, and no delay in enforcing this Guaranty shall act as a waiver of the Beneficiary’s rights hereunder. The provisions of this Guaranty may be waived or amended only in writing signed by the Guarantor and Beneficiary. This Guaranty shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Guarantor and the Beneficiary and their respective successors and assigns. The Guarantor may not assign its rights or delegate its duties under this Guaranty, except to a successor of Guarantor or to an entity that acquires all or substantially all of the assets of Guarantor that agrees to be bound by the terms hereof; provided that the Guarantor shall not be released from any of its duties or obligations hereunder as a result of such assignment.

4.4.    The Guarantor, in the person of the undersigned officer, represents and warrants to the Beneficiary that it is authorized to guaranty the Guaranteed Obligations, that it has all of the rights and powers necessary to do so, and that the individual signing below is authorized to bind the Guarantor to its obligations under this Guaranty. Provided, however, it is expressly understood that this Guaranty is without recourse of any kind against PBF Logistics GP LLC (acting hereunder in its capacity as the general partner of the Guarantor).
THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.
THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY.

PBF Logistics Announces Acquisition of Four East Coast Refined Product Terminals
from Plains All American
Purchase price of $100.0 million
100 percent increase to Partnership’s total shell capacity
Adds third-party customers and diversifies asset base
Synergy opportunities drive attractive acquisition multiple with approximately $15 million of pro forma EBITDA

PARSIPPANY, NJ - February 2, 2016 - PBF Logistics LP (NYSE:PBFX, the “Partnership”) announced today that a wholly-owned subsidiary has entered into an agreement to acquire four refined product terminals located in the greater Philadelphia region (the “East Coast Terminals”) from an affiliate of Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. for a total consideration of $100.0 million. This acquisition expands the Partnership’s storage and terminalling footprint and introduces third-party customers to the Partnership’s revenue base. The acquisition is expected to be financed through a combination of cash on hand, borrowings from the Partnership’s senior secured revolving credit facility and equity, which may include common units sold to our sponsor, PBF Energy. The acquisition is expected to close in the second quarter of 2016, subject to customary closing conditions.

PBFX Chief Executive Officer Thomas Nimbley said, “The acquisition of the East Coast Terminals is PBFX’s first third-party acquisition, adds meaningful third-party, fee-based revenue and represents an attractive acquisition multiple. The addition of the East Coast Terminals increases the Partnership’s total capacity by over 100% to approximately 8.1 million shell barrels and diversifies its customer and asset base. We expect the acquisition to be accretive to distributable cash flow upon closing.” Mr. Nimbley continued, “PBF Logistics has been able to execute its strategy and deliver growth to our unitholders. PBF Energy, as a sponsor, is committed to the continued growth and strategic development of PBF Logistics. We are excited about the transaction and look forward to welcoming the East Coast Terminals employees and customers to the PBF Logistics family.

Located in the Philadelphia market, the East Coast Terminals are ideally situated in the sixth largest metropolitan area in the United States with significant local demand for refined products. The terminals provide a critical link for the approximately 1.3 million barrels per day of refining capacity located within 100 miles of the terminals and associated downstream demand. With extensive pipeline, truck and deep-water marine connectivity, the East Coast terminals have the flexibility to accommodate a wide variety of potential customer requirements.

The East Coast Terminals are expected to allow PBF Logistics to leverage its expanded footprint and capitalize on commercial opportunities with new customers and leverage opportunities with PBF Energy due to the close proximity of PBF Energy’s East Coast refining system. In conjunction with the transaction, the Partnership expects to invest approximately $5 million, from cash on hand, to improve infrastructure in order to increase throughput capability at the East Coast Terminals. Based on a total transaction cost of $105 million, including the $5 million investment and synergy opportunities, the Partnership expects the East Coast Terminals to generate approximately $15 million of pro forma EBITDA, of which approximately two-thirds is expected to be from third-party customers.

The assets to be acquired include a total of 57 product tanks with a total shell capacity of approximately 4.2 million shell barrels, pipeline connections to the Colonial, Buckeye, Sunoco Logistics and other proprietary pipeline systems, 26 truck loading lanes and marine facilities capable of handling barges and ships.







Non-GAAP Measures
PBF Logistics LP Reconciliation of Amounts under US GAAP to Forecasted EBITDA (unaudited, in millions)

Reconciliation of East Coast Terminals Forecasted
Net Income to pro forma EBITDA:

Forecasted net income                      $8.7
Add: Depreciation and amortization expense           5.3
Add: Interest expense, net and other financing costs      1.0
Pro forma EBITDA                      $15.0

The Partnership defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense. EBITDA is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure that management and external users of our 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 financing methods;
the ability of our assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to our unit holders;
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.

The Partnership’s management believes that the presentation of EBITDA provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income, operating income, cash from operations or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool because it excludes some but not all items that affect net income. Additionally, because EBITDA 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. Due to the forward-looking nature of forecasted EBITDA, information to reconcile forecasted EBITDA to forecasted cash flow from operating activities is not available as management is unable to project working capital changes for future periods at this time.
