In connection with the offering, the Partnership will grant the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 945,000 common units.

The Los Angeles Logistics Assets consist of two marine terminals, a marine storage terminal, a products terminal, a petroleum coke handling and storage facility, over 100 miles of active crude oil and refined products pipelines and certain related assets and properties.

The closing of the acquisition of the Los Angeles Logistics Assets is not conditioned on the closing of the offering, and the offering is not conditioned on the closing of the acquisition of the Los Angeles Logistics Assets. If the acquisition of the Los Angeles Logistics Assets is not consummated for any reason, the Partnership may use the net proceeds from the offering for general partnership purposes, including future acquisitions and capital program expenditures.
