During the call, those statements we make that are not historical facts are forward-looking
statements.  Although we believe the assumptions underlying these statements are reasonable, investors are
cautioned that such forward-looking statements involve risks that may affect our business prospects and
performance, causing actual results to differ from those discussed during the conference call.  Such risks
and uncertainties include, among other things: our ability to successfully consummate announced
acquisitions
and
organic
growth
projects
and
integrate
them
into
existing
business
operations;
the
ability
of
announced acquisitions to be cash-flow accretive; increased competition; changes in the demand both for
crude oil that we buy and sell, as well as for crude oil and refined products that we store and distribute; the
loss of a major customer; changes in our tariff rates; changes in throughput of third-party pipelines that
connect to our pipelines and terminals; changes in operating conditions and costs; changes in the level of
environmental remediation spending; potential equipment malfunction; potential labor relations problems;
the legislative or regulatory environment; plant construction/repair delays; and political and economic
conditions,
including
the
impact
of
potential
terrorist
acts
and
international
hostilities. 
These and other applicable risks and uncertainties are described
more fully in our Form 10-Q, filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 5, 2009.  We undertake no obligation to update
publicly any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information or future events.
