Certain words in this Quarterly Report such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “goal,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “project,” “will,” and similar expressions and statements regarding our plans and objectives for future operations, identify forward-looking statements. Although we and our general partner believe such forward-looking statements are reasonable, neither we nor our general partner can assure they will prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks, uncertainties and assumptions. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary materially from those expected. Among the key risk factors that may impact our consolidated financial position and results of operations are:

• | any reduction or the elimination of the federal Renewable Fuel Standard; and |
• | changes in the jurisdictional characteristics of, or the applicable regulatory policies with respect to, our pipeline assets. |
You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report. Except as required by state and federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
At June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, and for the
Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015
Note 1—Organization and Operations
NGL Energy Partners LP (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Partnership”) is a Delaware limited partnership. NGL Energy Holdings LLC serves as our general partner. At June 30, 2016, our operations include:
• | Our crude oil logistics segment, the assets of which include owned and leased crude oil storage terminals and pipeline injection stations, a fleet of owned trucks and trailers, a fleet of owned and leased railcars, a fleet of owned barges and towboats, and interests in two crude oil pipelines. Our crude oil logistics segment purchases crude oil from producers and transports it to refineries or for resale at owned and leased pipeline injection stations, storage terminals, barge loading facilities, rail facilities, refineries, and other trade hubs. |
• | Our water solutions segment, the assets of which include water pipelines, water treatment and disposal facilities, washout facilities, and solid waste disposal facilities. Our water solutions segment provides services for the treatment and disposal of wastewater generated from crude oil and natural gas production and for the disposal of solids such as tank bottoms and drilling fluids and performs truck washouts. In addition, our water solutions segment sells the recycled water and recovered hydrocarbons that result from performing these services. |
• | Our liquids segment, which supplies natural gas liquids to retailers, wholesalers, refiners, and petrochemical plants throughout the United States and in Canada, and which provides natural gas liquids terminaling and storage services through its 18 owned terminals throughout the United States, its salt dome storage facility in Utah, and its leased storage and railcar transportation services through its fleet of leased railcars. |
• | Our retail propane segment, which sells propane, distillates, and equipment and supplies to end users consisting of residential, agricultural, commercial, and industrial customers and to certain resellers in 25 states and the District of Columbia. |
• | Our refined products and renewables segment, which conducts gasoline, diesel, ethanol, and biodiesel marketing operations. We purchase refined petroleum and renewable products primarily in the Gulf Coast, Southeast and Midwest regions of the United States and schedule them for delivery at various locations. |
Recent Developments
On February 1, 2016, we completed the sale of our general partner interest in TransMontaigne Partners L.P. (“TLP”) to an affiliate of ArcLight Capital Partners (“ArcLight”). As a result, on February 1, 2016, we deconsolidated TLP and began to account for our limited partner investment in TLP using the equity method of accounting. See Note 2 for a discussion of the sale. As TLP was previously a consolidated entity, our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2015 included three months of TLP’s operations and income attributable to the noncontrolling interests of TLP. On April 1, 2016, we sold all of the TLP common units we owned to ArcLight. See Note 2 for a discussion of the sale.
Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our controlled subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments we cannot control, but can exercise significant influence over, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. We also own an undivided interest in a crude oil pipeline. We have included our proportionate share of assets, liabilities, and expenses related to this pipeline in our consolidated financial statements.
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim consolidated financial information in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements exclude certain information and notes required by GAAP for complete annual consolidated financial statements. However, we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments that we consider necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items, unless otherwise disclosed in this Quarterly Report. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance

NGL ENERGY PARTNERS LP AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued
At June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, and for the
Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015
sheet at March 31, 2016 is derived from our audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K (“Annual Report”).
As previously reported, subsequent to the issuance of certain previously issued financial statements, in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, we determined that there were errors in those financial statements from not recording certain contingent consideration liabilities related to royalty agreements assumed as part of acquisitions in our water solutions segment. The effect of the error was material to the financial statements for each of the first three fiscal quarters of 2016, so those quarters have been restated for the effects of the error correction. We have restated our previously issued condensed consolidated statement of operations, condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss and condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended June 30, 2015. See Note 17 in our Annual Report for a summary of the impact of the error correction for the three months ended June 30, 2015.
These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report. Due to the seasonal nature of certain of our operations and other factors, the results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for future periods or for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2017.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets and liabilities reported at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of revenues and expenses reported during the periods presented.
Critical estimates we make in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements include determining the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations, the collectability of accounts receivable, the recoverability of inventories, useful lives and recoverability of property, plant and equipment and amortizable intangible assets, the impairment of assets, the fair value of asset retirement obligations, the value of equity-based compensation, and accruals for various commitments and contingencies, among others. Although we believe these estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Significant Accounting Policies
Our significant accounting policies are consistent with those disclosed in Note 2 of our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report.
Fair Value Measurements
We record our commodity derivative instruments and assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is based upon assumptions that market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability. We use the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes valuation technique inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels:
• | Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that we have the ability to access at the measurement date. |
• | Level 2—Inputs (other than quoted prices included within Level 1) that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability, including (i) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, (ii) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, and (iv) inputs that are derived from observable market data by correlation or other means. Instruments categorized in Level 2 include non-exchange traded derivatives such as over-the-counter commodity price swap and option contracts. We determine the fair value of all of our derivative financial instruments utilizing pricing models for similar instruments. Inputs to the pricing models include publicly available prices and forward curves generated from a compilation of data gathered from third parties. |
• | Level 3—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability including situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. |

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable data (Level 3). In some cases, the inputs used to measure fair value might fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. The lowest level input that is significant to a fair value measurement determines the applicable level in the fair value hierarchy. Assessing the significance of a particular input to a fair value measurement requires judgment, considering factors specific to the asset or liability.
Derivative Financial Instruments
We record all derivative financial instrument contracts at fair value in our condensed consolidated balance sheets except for certain contracts that qualify for the normal purchase and normal sale election. Under this accounting policy election, we do not record the contracts at fair value at each balance sheet date; instead, we record the purchase or sale at the contracted value once the delivery occurs.
We have not designated any financial instruments as hedges for accounting purposes. All changes in the fair value of our commodity derivative instruments that do not qualify as normal purchases and normal sales (whether cash transactions or non-cash mark-to-market adjustments) are reported within cost of sales in our condensed consolidated statements of operations, regardless of whether the contract is physically or financially settled.
We utilize various commodity derivative financial instrument contracts to attempt to reduce our exposure to price fluctuations. We do not enter into such contracts for trading purposes. Changes in assets and liabilities from commodity derivative financial instruments result primarily from changes in market prices, newly originated transactions, and the timing of settlements. We attempt to balance our contractual portfolio in terms of notional amounts and timing of performance and delivery obligations. However, net unbalanced positions can exist or are established based on our assessment of anticipated market movements. Inherent in the resulting contractual portfolio are certain business risks, including commodity price risk and credit risk. Commodity price risk is the risk that the market value of crude oil, natural gas liquids, or refined products will change, either favorably or unfavorably, in response to changing market conditions. Credit risk is the risk of loss from nonperformance by suppliers, customers or financial counterparties to a contract. Procedures and limits for managing commodity price risks and credit risks are specified in our market risk policy and credit risk policy, respectively. Open commodity positions and market price changes are monitored daily and are reported to senior management and to marketing operations personnel. Credit risk is monitored daily and exposure is minimized through customer deposits, restrictions on product liftings, letters of credit, and entering into master netting agreements that allow for offsetting counterparty receivable and payable balances for certain transactions.
Revenue Recognition
We record product sales revenues when title to the product transfers to the purchaser, which typically occurs when the purchaser receives the product. We record terminaling, transportation, storage, and service revenues when the service is performed, and we record tank and other rental revenues over the lease term. Revenues for our water solutions segment are recognized when we obtain the wastewater at our treatment and disposal facilities.
We report taxes collected from customers and remitted to taxing authorities, such as sales and use taxes, on a net basis. We include amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling costs in revenues in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. We enter into certain contracts whereby we agree to purchase product from a counterparty and sell the same volume of product to the same counterparty at a different location or time. When such agreements are entered into at the same time and in contemplation of each other, we record the revenues for these transactions net of cost of sales.
Revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 include $1.2 million and $1.5 million, respectively, associated with the amortization of a liability recorded in the acquisition accounting for an acquired business related to certain out-of-market revenue contracts.

Cash flows from settlements of commodity derivative instruments are included in investing activities in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, and adjustments to the fair value of commodity derivative instruments are included in operating activities in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
Inventories
We value our inventories at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using either the weighted-average cost or the first in, first out (FIFO) methods, including the cost of transportation and storage. Market is determined based on estimated replacement cost using prices at the end of the reporting period. In performing this analysis, we consider fixed-price forward commitments and the opportunity to transfer propane inventory from our wholesale liquids business to our retail propane business to sell the inventory in retail markets. At March 31, 2016, our inventory values were reduced by $13.3 million of lower of cost or market adjustments.

Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
Investments we cannot control, but can exercise significant influence over, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, we do not report the individual assets and liabilities of these entities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets; instead, our ownership interests are reported within investments in unconsolidated entities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Under the equity method, the investment is recorded at acquisition cost, increased by our proportionate share of any earnings and additional capital contributions and decreased by our proportionate share of any losses, distributions paid, and amortization of any excess investment. Excess investment is the amount by which our total investment exceeds our proportionate share of the historical net book value of the net assets of the investee.
On April 1, 2016, we sold all of the TLP common units we owned to ArcLight for approximately $112.4 million in cash and recorded a gain on disposal of $104.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016.

Sale of General Partner Interest in TLP
As previously reported, on February 1, 2016, we completed the sale of our general partner interest in TLP to ArcLight and deferred a portion of the gain on the sale and will recognize this amount over our future lease payment obligations, which is approximately seven years. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we recognized $7.5 million of the deferred gain in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. Within our condensed consolidated balance sheet, the current portion of the deferred gain, $30.1 million, is recorded in accrued expenses and other payables and the long-term portion, $161.9 million, is recorded in other noncurrent liabilities.
Noncontrolling Interests
We have certain consolidated subsidiaries in which outside parties own interests. The noncontrolling interest shown in our condensed consolidated financial statements represents the other owners’ interests in these entities.
Business Combination Measurement Period
We record the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination at their acquisition date fair values. Pursuant to GAAP, an entity is allowed a reasonable period of time (not to exceed one year) to obtain the information necessary to identify and measure the value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. As described in Note 4, certain of our acquisitions are still within this measurement period, and as a result, the acquisition date fair values we have recorded for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are subject to change.
Also, as described in Note 4, we made certain adjustments during the three months ended June 30, 2016 to our estimates of the acquisition date fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations that occurred during the year ended March 31, 2016.
In September 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-16, “Simplifying the Accounting Adjustments for Measurement-Period Adjustments.” The ASU requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. This ASU requires that the acquirer record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The ASU is effective for the Partnership beginning April 1, 2016, and requires a prospective method of adoption.
Reclassifications
We have reclassified certain prior period financial statement information to be consistent with the classification methods used in the current fiscal year. These reclassifications did not impact previously reported amounts of equity, net income, or cash flows.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases.” The ASU will replace previous lease accounting guidance in GAAP. The ASU requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. The ASU retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. The ASU is effective for the Partnership beginning April 1, 2019, and requires a modified retrospective method of adoption. We are in the process of assessing the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” The ASU requires that inventory within the scope of the guidance be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The ASU is effective for the Partnership beginning April 1, 2017, and requires a prospective method of adoption, although early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP. The core principle of this ASU is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. The ASU is effective for the Partnership beginning April 1, 2018, and allows for both full retrospective and modified retrospective (with cumulative effect) methods of adoption. We are in the process of determining the method of adoption and assessing the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 4—Acquisitions
Year Ending March 31, 2017
Water Pipeline Company
As discussed below, on January 7, 2016, we acquired a 57.125% interest in an existing produced water pipeline company operating in the Delaware Basin portion of West Texas. On June 3, 2016, we acquired an additional 24.5% interest in this water pipeline company as part of the purchase and sale agreement discussed in Note 15. As we control this entity (and will continue to retain our controlling financial interest), the acquisition of the additional interest is accounted for as an equity transaction, no gain or loss will be recorded and the carrying value of the noncontrolling interest will be adjusted to reflect the change in ownership interest of the subsidiary. As of the date of the transaction, the 24.5% interest had a carrying value of $5.2 million.
Water Supply Company
On June 3, 2016, we acquired the remaining 65% ownership interest in a water supply company (see Note 2). In exchange for this additional interest, we paid $1.0 million of cash and assumed an outstanding note payable, which relates to money this entity previously borrowed from us. Prior to the completion of this transaction we accounted for the 35% previously held ownership interest of this water supply company using the equity method of accounting (see Note 2). As we now own a controlling interest in this entity, we revalued our previously held 35% ownership interest to fair value of $0.8 million and recorded a loss of $14.9 million, which is recorded within revaluation of investments in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. As the amount paid (cash plus the fair value of our previous ownership interest) was less than the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we recorded a gain on bargain purchase of $0.6 million within revaluation of investments in our condensed consolidated statement of operations.
We are in the process of identifying and determining the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in this business combination, and as a result, the estimates of fair value at June 30, 2016 are subject to change. We expect to complete this process before we issue our financial statements for the three months ending June 30, 2017. The following table summarizes the preliminary estimates of the fair values of the assets acquired (and useful lives) and liabilities assumed (in thousands):
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 800 | |
Accounts receivable-trade | 721 | ||
Prepaid expenses and other current assets | 192 | ||
Property, plant and equipment: | |||
Buildings and leasehold improvements (7-30 years) | 8,786 | ||
Land | 88 | ||
Intangible asset: | |||
Water rights (indefinite life) | 14,472 | ||
Accounts payable-trade | (33 | ) | |
Accrued expenses and other payables | (50 | ) | |
Advance payments received from customers | (2,682 | ) | |
Notes payable-intercompany | (19,900 | ) | |
Fair value of net assets acquired | $ | 2,394 |
Water Solutions Facility
We were party to a development agreement that required us to purchase water solutions facilities developed by the other party to the agreement. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we purchased a water treatment and disposal facility under this development agreement and paid $9.0 million of cash. In addition, we have recorded contingent consideration liabilities within accrued expenses and other payables and other noncurrent liabilities related to future royalty payments due to the sellers of this facility. We estimated the contingent consideration based on the contracted royalty rate, which is a flat rate per disposal barrel and percentage of oil revenues, multiplied by the expected disposal volumes and oil

revenue for the expected useful life of the facility and disposal well. This amount was then discounted to present value using our weighted average cost of capital plus a premium representative of the uncertainty associated with the expected disposal volumes and oil revenue. As of the acquisition date, we recorded a contingent liability of $2.6 million.
We are in the process of identifying and determining the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for this water treatment and disposal facility, and as a result, the estimates of fair value at June 30, 2016 are subject to change. We expect to complete this process before we issue our financial statements for the three months ending June 30, 2017. The following table summarizes the preliminary estimates of the fair values of the assets acquired (and useful lives) and liabilities assumed (in thousands):
Property, plant and equipment: | |||
Water treatment facilities and equipment (3-30 years) | $ | 2,325 | |
Buildings and leasehold improvements (7-30 years) | 1,073 | ||
Land | 415 | ||
Other (5 years) | 8 | ||
Goodwill | 8,803 | ||
Accrued expenses and other payables | (1,280 | ) | |
Other noncurrent liabilities | (2,344 | ) | |
Fair value of net assets acquired | $ | 9,000 |
For the water solutions facility acquisition during the three months ended June 30, 2016, goodwill represents the excess of the consideration paid for the acquired business over the fair value of the individual assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed. Goodwill represents a premium paid to expand the number of our disposal sites in an oilfield production basin currently serviced by us, thereby enhancing our competitive position as a provider of disposal services in this oilfield production basin. We estimate that all of the goodwill will be deductible for federal income tax purposes.
Retail Propane Business
During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we acquired a retail propane business and paid $1.4 million of cash in exchange for these assets and operations. The agreement for this acquisition contemplates post-closing payments for certain working capital items. We are in the process of identifying and determining the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in this business combination, and as a result, the estimates of fair value at June 30, 2016 are subject to change.
Year Ended March 31, 2016
Pursuant to GAAP, an entity is allowed a reasonable period of time (not to exceed one year) to obtain the information necessary to identify and measure the value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination.
Water Pipeline Company
During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we finalized the purchase price accounting for the 57.125% interest acquired in a water pipeline company on January 7, 2016. During the current period, we recorded an adjustment to reclassify approximately $1.1 million from property, plant and equipment to intangible assets, in order to present the fair value of the acquired rights-of-way as an indefinite-lived asset, which is consistent with our historical accounting policies. There have been no other adjustments to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed which were disclosed in our Annual Report.
Delaware Basin Water Solutions Facilities
During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we finalized the purchase price accounting for the four saltwater disposal facilities and a 50% interest in an additional saltwater disposal facility in the Delaware Basin of the Permian Basin in Texas we acquired on August 24, 2015. There have been no adjustments to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed which were disclosed in our Annual Report.

Water Solutions Facilities
During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we finalized the purchase price accounting for nine water facilities developed under the development agreement. During the current period, we received additional information and recorded an adjustment of $0.7 million to property, plant and equipment to recognize the fair value of additional assets that we acquired. This adjustment also reduced goodwill by the same amount. In addition, we paid $1.0 million in cash to the seller during the current period, for consideration that was held back at the acquisition date, which we recorded as a liability to accrued expenses and other payables.
Retail Propane Businesses
During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we finalized the purchase price accounting for four retail propane businesses we acquired during the year ended March 31, 2016. There have been no adjustments to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed which were disclosed in our Annual Report.

Goodwill Adjustment to Initial Impairment Estimate
During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we recorded a preliminary goodwill impairment charge of $380.2 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we finalized our goodwill impairment analysis, with the assistance of a third party valuation firm. As a result of finalizing our analysis, we determined that we needed to reverse $124.7 million of the previously recorded goodwill impairment recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2016. We recorded the reversal within (gain) loss on disposal or impairment of assets, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Write off of Intangible Assets
As a result of terminating the development agreement in the Water Solutions segment (see Note 15), we incurred a loss of $5.8 million to write off the water facility development agreement. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we wrote-off $5.2 million related to the value of an indefinite-lived trade name intangible asset in conjunction with finalizing our goodwill impairment analysis (see Note 6).

At June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, and for the
Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015
Credit Agreement
We have entered into a credit agreement (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks. The Credit Agreement includes a revolving credit facility to fund working capital needs (the “Working Capital Facility”) and a revolving credit facility to fund acquisitions and expansion projects (the “Expansion Capital Facility,” and together with the Working Capital Facility, the “Revolving Credit Facility”). At June 30, 2016, our Revolving Credit Facility had a total capacity of $2.484 billion. Our Revolving Credit Facility has an “accordion” feature that allows us to increase the capacity by $150 million if new lenders wish to join the syndicate or if current lenders wish to increase their commitments.
The Expansion Capital Facility had a total capacity of $1.446 billion for cash borrowings at June 30, 2016. At that date, we had outstanding borrowings of $1.172 billion on the Expansion Capital Facility. The Working Capital Facility had a total capacity of $1.038 billion for cash borrowings and letters of credit at June 30, 2016. At that date, we had outstanding borrowings of $655.5 million and outstanding letters of credit of $71.6 million on the Working Capital Facility. Amounts outstanding for letters of credit are not recorded as long-term debt on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, although they decrease our borrowing capacity under the Working Capital Facility. The capacity available under the Working Capital Facility may be limited by a “borrowing base” (as defined in the Credit Agreement), which is calculated based on the value of certain working capital items at any point in time.
The commitments under the Credit Agreement expire on November 5, 2018. We have the right to prepay outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement without incurring any penalties, and prepayments of principal may be required if we enter into certain transactions to sell assets or obtain new borrowings.
All borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at our option, at either (i) an alternate base rate plus a margin of 0.50% to 1.50% per year or (ii) an adjusted LIBOR rate plus a margin of 1.50% to 2.50% per year. The applicable margin is determined based on our consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). At June 30, 2016, the borrowings under the Credit Agreement were LIBOR borrowings with an interest rate at June 30, 2016 of 2.73%, calculated as the LIBOR rate of 0.48% plus a margin of 2.25%. At June 30, 2016, the interest rate in effect on letters of credit was 2.50%. Commitment fees are charged at a rate ranging from 0.38% to 0.50% on any unused capacity.
The Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of our assets. The Credit Agreement also specifies that our leverage ratio cannot be more than 4.50 to 1 and that interest coverage ratio cannot be less than 2.75 to 1 at any quarter end. At June 30, 2016, our leverage ratio was approximately 4.0 to 1 and our interest coverage ratio was approximately 4.7 to 1.
At June 30, 2016, we were in compliance with the covenants under the Credit Agreement.
2019 Notes
On July 9, 2014, we issued $400.0 million of 5.125% Senior Notes Due 2019 (the “2019 Notes”). During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we repurchased $5.0 million of our 2019 Notes for an aggregate purchase price of $3.1 million (excluding payments of accrued interest). As a result, we recorded a gain on the early extinguishment of our 2019 Notes of $1.8 million (net of the write off of debt issuance costs of $0.1 million).
The 2019 Notes mature on July 15, 2019. Interest is payable on January 15 and July 15 of each year. We have the right to redeem the 2019 Notes before the maturity date, although we would be required to pay a premium for early redemption.
At June 30, 2016, we were in compliance with the covenants under the indenture governing the 2019 Notes.
2021 Notes
On October 16, 2013, we issued $450.0 million of 6.875% Senior Notes Due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”). During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we repurchased $19.2 million of our 2021 Notes for an aggregate purchase price of $12.0 million (excluding payments of accrued interest). As a result, we recorded a gain on the early extinguishment of our 2021 Notes of $6.8 million (net of the write off of debt issuance costs of $0.4 million).

The 2021 Notes mature on October 15, 2021. Interest is payable on April 15 and October 15 of each year. We have the right to redeem the 2021 Notes before the maturity date, although we would be required to pay a premium for early redemption.
At June 30, 2016, we were in compliance with the covenants under the indenture governing the 2021 Notes.
2022 Notes
On June 19, 2012, we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (as amended, the “Note Purchase Agreement”) whereby we issued $250.0 million of Senior Notes in a private placement (the “2022 Notes”). The 2022 Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.65%, which is payable quarterly. The 2022 Notes are required to be repaid in semi-annual installments of $25.0 million beginning on December 19, 2017 and ending on the maturity date of June 19, 2022. We have the option to prepay outstanding principal, although we would incur a prepayment penalty. The 2022 Notes are secured by substantially all of our assets and rank equal in priority with borrowings under the Credit Agreement.
At June 30, 2016, we were in compliance with the covenants under the Note Purchase Agreement.
Other Long-Term Debt
We have executed various noninterest bearing notes payable, primarily related to non-compete agreements entered into in connection with acquisitions of businesses. We also have certain notes payable related to equipment financing. These instruments have a combined principal balance of $59.5 million at June 30, 2016, and the interest rates on these instruments range from 1.17% to 7.08% per year.
Debt Maturity Schedule
The scheduled maturities of our long-term debt are as follows at June 30, 2016:

Note 9—Income Taxes
We qualify as a partnership for income tax purposes. As such, we generally do not pay United States federal income tax. Rather, each owner reports his or her share of our income or loss on his or her individual tax return. The aggregate difference in the basis of our net assets for financial and tax reporting purposes cannot be readily determined, as we do not have access to information regarding each partner’s basis in the Partnership.
We have certain taxable corporate subsidiaries in the United States and in Canada, and our operations in Texas are subject to a state franchise tax that is calculated based on revenues net of cost of sales. Our fiscal years 2012 to 2015 generally remain subject to examination by federal, state, and Canadian tax authorities. We utilize the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply in the years in which these temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Changes in tax rates are recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

At June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, and for the
Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015
A publicly traded partnership is required to generate at least 90% of its gross income (as defined for federal income tax purposes) from certain qualifying sources. Income generated by our taxable corporate subsidiaries is excluded from this qualifying income calculation. Although we routinely generate income outside of our corporate subsidiaries that is non-qualifying, we believe that at least 90% of our gross income has been qualifying income for each of the calendar years since our initial public offering.
We evaluate uncertain tax positions for recognition and measurement in the consolidated financial statements. To recognize a tax position, we determine whether it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation, based on the technical merits of the position. A tax position that meets the more likely than not threshold is measured to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements. We had no material uncertain tax positions that required recognition in our condensed consolidated financial statements at June 30, 2016 or March 31, 2016.
Note 10—Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Contingencies
We are party to various claims, legal actions, and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of our management, the ultimate resolution of these claims, legal actions, and complaints, after consideration of amounts accrued, insurance coverage, and other arrangements, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, the outcome of such matters is inherently uncertain, and estimates of our liabilities may change materially as circumstances develop.
Environmental Matters
Our condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2016 includes a liability, measured on an undiscounted basis, of $2.3 million related to environmental matters, which is reported within accrued expenses and other payables. Our operations are subject to extensive federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations. Although we believe our operations are in substantial compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations, risks of additional costs and liabilities are inherent in our business, and there can be no assurance that we will not incur significant costs. Moreover, it is possible that other developments, such as increasingly stringent environmental laws, regulations and enforcement policies thereunder, and claims for damages to property or persons resulting from the operations, could result in substantial costs. Accordingly, we have adopted policies, practices, and procedures in the areas of pollution control, product safety, occupational health, and the handling, storage, use, and disposal of hazardous materials designed to prevent material environmental or other damage, and to limit the financial liability that could result from such events. However, some risk of environmental or other damage is inherent in our business.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) has informed NGL Crude Logistics, LLC (“NGL Crude” formerly known as Gavilon Energy prior to its acquisition by us in December 2013) of alleged violations in 2011 by Gavilon Energy of the Clean Air Act’s renewable fuel standards regulations. The EPA’s allegations relate to transactions between Gavilon Energy and one of its suppliers and the generation of biodiesel renewable identification numbers sold by such supplier to Gavilon Energy in 2011. We have vigorously denied the allegations. In an effort to resolve this matter, the parties previously commenced settlement negotiations, which are ongoing.
At this time, we are unable to ascertain whether the settlement discussions will produce a resolution satisfactory to us or whether the EPA will seek resolution of the matter through an enforcement action. As a result, we are also unable to determine the likely terms of any resolution or their significance to us. Although we believe we have legal defenses, it is reasonably possible that we may agree to pay the EPA some amount to settle the matter.

Asset Retirement Obligations
We have contractual and regulatory obligations at certain facilities for which we have to perform remediation, dismantlement, or removal activities when the assets are retired. Our liability for asset retirement obligations is discounted to present value. To calculate the liability, we make estimates and assumptions about the retirement cost and the timing of retirement. Changes in our assumptions and estimates may occur as a result of the passage of time and the occurrence of future events. The following table is a rollforward of our asset retirement obligation, which is reported within other noncurrent liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets (in thousands):
Balance at March 31, 2016 | $ | 5,574 | |
Liabilities incurred | 24 | ||
Accretion expense | 109 | ||
Balance at June 30, 2016 | $ | 5,707 |
In addition to the obligations described above, we may be obligated to remove facilities or perform other remediation upon retirement of certain other assets. We do not believe the present value of these asset retirement obligations, under current laws and regulations, after taking into consideration the estimated lives of our facilities, is material to our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Operating Leases
We have executed various noncancelable operating lease agreements for product storage, office space, vehicles, real estate, railcars, and equipment. The following table summarizes future minimum lease payments under these agreements at June 30, 2016 (in thousands):

Total | $ | 385,415 |
Rental expense relating to operating leases was $29.9 million and $33.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Pipeline Capacity Agreements
We have executed noncancelable agreements with crude oil and refined products pipeline operators, which guarantee us minimum monthly shipping capacity on the pipelines. As a result, we are required to pay the minimum shipping fees if actual shipments are less than our allotted capacity. The following table summarizes future minimum throughput payments under these agreements at June 30, 2016 (in thousands):

We account for the contracts shown in the table above as normal purchases and normal sales. Under this accounting policy election, we do not record the contracts at fair value at each balance sheet date; instead, we record the purchase or sale at the contracted value once the delivery occurs. Contracts in the table above may have offsetting derivative contracts (described in Note 12) or inventory positions (described in Note 2).
Certain other forward purchase and sale contracts do not qualify for the normal purchase and normal sale election. These contracts are recorded at fair value in our condensed consolidated balance sheet and are not included in the table above. These contracts are included in the derivative disclosures in Note 12, and represent $38.5 million of our prepaid expenses and other current assets and $44.0 million of our accrued expenses and other payables at June 30, 2016.
Note 11—Equity
Partnership Equity
The Partnership’s equity consists of a 0.1% general partner interest and a 99.9% limited partner interest, which consists of common units. Our general partner is not required to make any additional capital contributions or to guarantee or pay any of our debts and obligations.
Our Distributions
On July 22, 2016, we declared a distribution of $0.39 per common unit, to be paid on August 12, 2016 to unitholders of record on August 4, 2016. This distribution is expected to be $41.2 million, including amounts to be paid on common and general partner notional units as well as an incentive distribution.

On April 21, 2016, we entered into a private placement agreement to issue $200 million of 10.75% Class A Convertible Preferred Units (“Preferred Units”) to Oaktree Capital Management L.P. and their co-investors (“Oaktree”). On June 23, 2016, the private placement agreement was amended to increase the aggregate principal amount from $200 million to $240 million. On May 11, 2016, we received an initial $100 million (“initial closing date”) and Oaktree received 8,309,237 Preferred Units and on June 24, 2016 we received the remaining $140 million (“second closing date”) and Oaktree received 11,632,932 Preferred Units. In addition, Oaktree received 4,345,112 warrants (1,822,963 at the initial closing date and 2,522,149 at the second closing date) to purchase common units at an exercise price of $0.01 per common unit.
We will pay to the holders of the Preferred Units a cumulative, quarterly distribution in arrears at an annual rate of 10.75% on the Preferred Units then outstanding in cash, to the extent declared by the board of directors of our general partner. To the extent declared, such distributions will be paid for each such quarter within 45 days after each quarter end. On July 22,

At June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, and for the
Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015
2016, we declared a pro rata distribution for the three months ended June 30, 2016 of $1.8 million to be paid to the holders of the Preferred Units on August 12, 2016.
If the Preferred Unit quarterly distribution is not made in full in cash for any quarter, the Preferred Unit distribution rate will increase by one quarter of a percentage point (0.25%) per annum beginning with distributions for the first six-month period that a payment default is in effect, and will further increase by an additional one quarter of a percentage point (0.25%) beginning with distributions for the next six-month period during which a payment default remains in effect. The deficiency rate shall not exceed 11.25% per annum; as long as the default is occurring, the amount of accrued but unpaid Preferred Unit quarterly distributions shall increase at an annual rate of 10.75%, compounded quarterly, until paid in full.
The Preferred Units have no mandatory redemption date but are redeemable, at our election, any time after the first anniversary of the closing date. We have the right to redeem all of the outstanding Preferred Units at a price per Preferred Unit equal to the purchase price multiplied by the redemption multiple then in effect. The redemption multiple means (a) 140% for redemptions occurring on or after the first, but prior to the second anniversary of the closing date, (b) 115% for the redemptions occurring on or after the second, but prior to the third anniversary of the closing date, (c) 110% for redemptions occurring on or after the third, but prior to the eighth anniversary of the closing date and (d) 101% for redemptions occurring on or after the eighth anniversary of the closing date.
At any time after the third anniversary of the initial closing date, the Preferred Unit holders shall have the right to convert all of the outstanding Preferred Units at a price per Preferred Unit equal to the purchase price multiplied by the conversion multiple then in effect, which may be settled in units, cash or a combination, at our discretion. The conversion multiple means if our units are trading at or above $12.035 (“the initial conversion price”), the conversion price is not adjusted. However, if the conversion price is less than the initial conversion price, the conversion price will be reset to the greater of (i) the adjusted volume weighted average price of our common units for the fifteen trading days immediately preceding the third anniversary of the closing date or (ii) $5.00.
Upon a change of control of the Partnership, each Preferred Unit holder shall have the right, at its election, to either (i) elect to have its Preferred Units converted to common units; (ii) if we are the surviving entity of such change of control, it can elect to continue to hold its Preferred Units; or (iii) require us to redeem its Preferred Units in cash which equals (a) prior to the first anniversary of the closing date, 140% of the unit purchase price; (b) on or after the first but prior to the second anniversary of the closing date, 130% of the unit purchase price; (c) on or after the second anniversary of the closing date, 120% of the unit purchase price; and (d) thereafter, 101% of the unit purchase price. In each case, this amount will include any accrued but unpaid distributions at the redemption date.
Under the agreement, we are required to file within 180 days of the initial closing date a registration statement registering the resales of common units issued or to be issued upon conversion of the Preferred Units or exercise of the warrants and have the registration statement declared effective within 360 days after the closing date. We are required to continue to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement until all securities have been sold. If the registration statement is not effective before the deadline, then the Preferred Unit holders shall be entitled to liquidated damages. The liquidated damages, which would accrue daily, are an amount equal to 0.25% of the multiplier for the first 60 day period following the effectiveness deadline plus an additional 0.25% of the multiplier for each subsequent 30 day period (i.e. 0.50% for 61-90 days, 0.75% for 91-120 days and 1.00% thereafter) up to a maximum of 1.00% of the liquidated damage multiplier per 30 day period, until the registration statement becomes effective or the Preferred Units are sold.
The warrants have an eight year term, after which unexercised warrants will expire. The holders of the warrants may convert one-third of the warrants from and after the first anniversary of the original issue date, another one-third of the warrants from and after the second anniversary of the original issue date and the final one-third may be converted from and after the third anniversary. Upon a change of control or in the event we exercise our redemption right with respect to the Preferred Units, all unvested warrants shall immediately vest and be exercisable in full.
We received net proceeds of $235.2 million (net of issuance costs of $4.8 million) in connection with the issuance of Preferred Units and warrants. We allocated these net proceeds, on a relative fair value basis, to the Preferred Units ($186.6 million), which includes the value of the beneficial conversion feature and warrants ($48.6 million). As described below, $131.5 million of the amount allocated to the Preferred Units is allocated to the intrinsic value of a beneficial conversion feature. A beneficial conversion feature is defined as a nondetachable conversion feature that is in the money at the commitment date. Per the accounting guidance, we are required to allocate a portion of the proceeds allocated to the Preferred Units to the beneficial

At June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, and for the
Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015
conversion feature based on the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature. The intrinsic value is calculated at the commitment date based on the difference between the fair value of the common units at the issuance date (number of common units issuable at conversion multiplied by the per share value of our common units at the issuance date) and the proceeds attributed to the Preferred Units. We will record the accretion attributed to the beneficial conversion feature as a deemed distribution using the effective interest method over the three year period prior to the effective dates of the holders’ conversion right. Accretion for the beneficial conversion feature was $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016.
As discussed above, the Preferred Units are not mandatorily redeemable but are redeemable upon a change of control, which was not certain to occur at the issuance of the Preferred Units. Due to the redemption being conditioned upon an event that is not certain to occur or that is not under our control, we are required to record the value allocated to the Preferred Units, excluding the value of the beneficial conversion feature, between liabilities and equity (mezzanine or temporary equity) within our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The value allocated to the warrants and the beneficial conversion feature were recorded as part of Limited Partners’ equity within our condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement
On June 22, 2016, NGL Energy Holdings LLC, the general partner, executed the Third Amended and Restated Agreement to the Limited Partnership. The preferences, rights, powers and duties of holders of the Preferred Units are defined in the amended and restated partnership agreement. The Preferred Units rank senior to the common units, with respect to the payment of distributions and distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up. The Preferred Units have no stated maturity and are not subject to mandatory redemption or any sinking fund and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless redeemed by the partnership or converted into common units at the election of the partnership or the Preferred Unit holders or in connection with a change of control.
Equity-Based Incentive Compensation
Our general partner has adopted a long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”), which allows for the issuance of equity-based compensation. Our general partner has granted certain restricted units to employees and directors, which vest in tranches, subject to the continued service of the recipients. The awards may also vest in the event of a change in control, at the discretion of the board of directors of our general partner. No distributions accrue to or are paid on the restricted units during the vesting period.
The restricted units include awards that vest contingent on the continued service of the recipients through the vesting date (the “Service Awards”). The restricted units also include awards that are contingent both on the continued service of the recipients through the vesting date and also on the performance of our common units relative to other entities in the Alerian MLP Index (the “Index”) over specified periods of time (the “Performance Awards”).
The following table summarizes the Service Award activity during the three months ended June 30, 2016:
Unvested Service Award units at March 31, 2016 | 2,297,132 | ||
Units granted | 104,000 | ||

over the period beginning with the vesting date of the previous tranche and ending with the vesting date of the tranche. At each balance sheet date, we adjust the cumulative expense recorded using the estimated fair value of the awards at the balance sheet date. We calculate the fair value of the awards using the closing price of our common units on the New York Stock Exchange on the balance sheet date, adjusted to reflect the fact that the holders of the unvested units are not entitled to distributions during the vesting period. We estimate the impact of the lack of distribution rights during the vesting period using the value of the most recent distribution and assumptions that a market participant might make about future distributions. During the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we recorded compensation expense related to Service Award units of $20.9 million and $18.5 million, respectively.
The following table summarizes the estimated future expense we expect to record on the unvested Service Award units at June 30, 2016 (in thousands), after taking into consideration estimated forfeitures of approximately 110,000 units. For purposes of this calculation, we used the closing price of our common units on June 30, 2016, which was $19.32.

Expense recorded | 20,877 | |||
Balance at June 30, 2016 | $ | 25,602 |
The weighted-average fair value of the Service Award units at June 30, 2016 was $18.52 per common unit, which was calculated as the closing price of our common units on June 30, 2016, adjusted to reflect the fact that the restricted units are not entitled to distributions during the vesting period. The impact of the lack of distribution rights during the vesting period was estimated using the value of the most recent distribution.
During April 2015, our general partner granted Performance Award units to certain employees. The following table summarizes the maximum number of units that could vest on these Performance Awards for each vesting tranche, taking into consideration any Performance Awards that have been forfeited since the grant date:
Vesting Date of Tranche | |||
July 1, 2016 | — | ||
July 1, 2017 | 583,382 | ||
Total | 583,382 |
The number of Performance Award units that will vest is contingent on the performance of our common units relative to the performance of the other entities in the Index. Performance will be calculated based on the return on our common units (including changes in the market price of the common units and distributions paid during the performance period) relative to the returns on the common units of the other entities in the Index. Performance will be measured over the following periods:
Vesting Date of Tranche | Performance Period for Tranche | |
July 1, 2016 | July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2016 | |

During the July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2016 performance period, the return on our common units was below the return of the 50th percentile of our peer companies in the Index. As a result, no units vested on July 1, 2016.

The number of common units that may be delivered pursuant to awards under the LTIP is limited to 10% of the issued and outstanding common units. The maximum number of units deliverable under the LTIP plan automatically increases to 10% of the issued and outstanding common units immediately after each issuance of common units, unless the plan administrator determines to increase the maximum number of units deliverable by a lesser amount. Units withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations are not considered to be delivered under the LTIP. In addition, when an award is forfeited, canceled, exercised, paid

(2) | We may have fixed price physical purchases, including inventory, offset by floating price physical sales or floating price physical purchases offset by fixed price physical sales. These contracts are derivatives we have entered into as an economic hedge against the risk of mismatches between fixed and floating price physical obligations. |
During the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we recorded net losses of $59.7 million and $41.2 million, respectively, from our commodity derivatives to cost of sales.
Credit Risk
We have credit policies that we believe minimize our overall credit risk, including an evaluation of potential counterparties’ financial condition (including credit ratings), collateral requirements under certain circumstances, and the use of industry standard master netting agreements, which allow for offsetting counterparty receivable and payable balances for certain transactions. At June 30, 2016, our primary counterparties were retailers, resellers, energy marketers, producers, refiners, and dealers. This concentration of counterparties may impact our overall exposure to credit risk, either positively or negatively, as the counterparties may be similarly affected by changes in economic, regulatory or other conditions. If a counterparty does not perform on a contract, we may not realize amounts that have been recorded in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and recognized in our net income.
Interest Rate Risk
Our Revolving Credit Facility is variable-rate debt with interest rates that are generally indexed to bank prime or LIBOR interest rates. At June 30, 2016, we had $1.8 billion of outstanding borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility at a rate of 2.73%.

Fair Value of Fixed-Rate Notes
The following table provides fair value estimates of our fixed-rate notes at June 30, 2016 (in thousands):

6.650% Notes due 2022 | 237,244 |
For the 2019 Notes and the 2021 Notes, the fair value estimates were developed based on publicly traded quotes and would be classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. For the 2022 Notes, the fair value estimate was developed using observed yields on publicly traded notes issued by us, adjusted for differences in the key terms of those notes and the key terms of our notes (examples include differences in the tenor of the debt, credit standing of the issuer, whether the notes are publicly traded, and whether the notes are secured or unsecured). This fair value estimate would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

We also have a loan receivable of $1.0 million at June 30, 2016 from an equity method investee with an initial maturity date of March 31, 2021, which can be extended for successive one-year periods unless one of the parties terminates the loan agreement.
We had a loan receivable of $22.3 million at March 31, 2016 from an equity method investee. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we received loan payments of $0.7 million from our investee in accordance with the loan agreement. On June 3, 2016, we acquired the remaining 65% ownership interest in this equity method investee (see Note 4) and this loan receivable is now eliminated upon consolidation.
Note 15—Other Matters
Purchase of Pipeline Capacity Allocations
On certain interstate refined product pipelines, shipment demand exceeds available capacity, and capacity is allocated to shippers based on their historical shipment volumes. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we paid $40.4 million to acquire certain refined product pipeline capacity allocations from other shippers on the Colonial pipeline.
Termination of Development Agreement

million, of which $2.1 million was withheld and recorded in accrued expenses and other payables as of June 30, 2016, and in return we received the following:
• | Termination of the development agreement (see Note 4); |
• | Additional interest in the water pipeline company we acquired in January 2016 (see Note 4); |
• | Release of contingent consideration liabilities (see Note 4) attributed to certain of our water treatment and disposal facilities; |
• | Certain parcels of land and permits to develop saltwater disposal wells and other parcels of land containing water wells and equipment; and |
• | A two-year non-compete agreement with the counterparty. |
We accounted for the transaction as an acquisition of assets. Acquiring assets in groups requires not only ascertaining the cost of the asset (or net asset) group but also allocating that cost to the individual assets (or individual assets and liabilities) that make up the group. The cost of a group of assets acquired in an asset acquisition shall be allocated to the individual assets acquired or liabilities assumed/released based on their relative fair values and shall not give rise to goodwill or bargain purchase gains. We allocated $1.2 million of the total consideration to property, plant and equipment, $3.3 million to intangible assets, $2.8 million to noncontrolling interest, $25.5 million to the release of contingent consideration liabilities and $16.9 million to the termination of the development agreement. We recorded a $21.3 million gain on the release of $46.8 million of contingent consideration liabilities, which has been recorded within gain on early extinguishment of liabilities in our condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the termination of the development agreement, we recorded a loss of $22.7 million, which includes the carrying value of the development agreement asset that has been written off (see Note 7). This loss has been recorded within (gain) loss on disposal or impairment of assets, net in our condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three months ended June 30, 2016.
Note 16—Subsequent Events
Retail Propane Acquisition
On July 20, 2016, we completed a retail propane acquisition and paid $26.0 million in cash.
Note 17—Condensed Consolidating Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Financial Information
Certain of our wholly owned subsidiaries have, jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guaranteed the 2019 Notes and 2021 Notes (see Note 8). Pursuant to Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X, we have presented in columnar format the condensed consolidating financial information for NGL Energy Partners LP (Parent), NGL Energy Finance Corp., the guarantor subsidiaries on a combined basis, and the non-guarantor subsidiaries on a combined basis in the tables below. NGL Energy Partners LP and NGL Energy Finance Corp. are co-issuers of the 2019 Notes and 2021 Notes. Since NGL Energy Partners LP received the proceeds from the issuance of the 2019 Notes and 2021 Notes, all activity has been reflected in the NGL Energy Partners LP (Parent) column in the tables below.
During the periods presented in the tables below, the status of certain subsidiaries changed, in that they either became guarantors of or ceased to be guarantors of the 2019 Notes and 2021 Notes. Such changes have been given retrospective application in the tables below.
There are no significant restrictions that prevent the parent or any of the guarantor subsidiaries from obtaining funds from their respective subsidiaries by dividend or loan. None of the assets of the guarantor subsidiaries (other than the investments in non-guarantor subsidiaries) are restricted net assets pursuant to Rule 4-08(e)(3) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
For purposes of the tables below, (i) the condensed consolidating financial information is presented on a legal entity basis, (ii) investments in consolidated subsidiaries are accounted for as equity method investments, and (iii) contributions, distributions, and advances to (from) consolidated entities are reported on a net basis within net changes in advances with consolidated entities in the condensed consolidating statement of cash flow tables below.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following is a discussion of NGL Energy Partners LP’s (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Partnership”) financial condition and results of operations as of and for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this report, as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 (“Annual Report”).
Overview
We are a Delaware limited partnership. NGL Energy Holdings LLC serves as our general partner. At June 30, 2016, our operations include:
• | Our crude oil logistics segment, the assets of which include owned and leased crude oil storage terminals and pipeline injection stations, a fleet of owned trucks and trailers, a fleet of owned and leased railcars, a fleet of owned barges and towboats, and interests in two crude oil pipelines. Our crude oil logistics segment purchases crude oil from producers and transports it to refineries or for resale at owned and leased pipeline injection stations, storage terminals, barge loading facilities, rail facilities, refineries, and other trade hubs. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, the segment generated an operating loss of $0.6 million. The segment generated operating income of $12.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015. |
• | Our water solutions segment, the assets of which include water pipelines, water treatment and disposal facilities, washout facilities, and solid waste disposal facilities. Our water solutions segment provides services for the treatment and disposal of wastewater generated from crude oil and natural gas production and for the disposal of solids such as tank bottoms and drilling fluids and performs truck washouts. In addition, our water solutions segment sells the recycled water and recovered hydrocarbons that result from performing these services. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, the segment generated operating income of $79.5 million, which includes the reversal of $124.7 million of the previously recorded $380.2 million goodwill impairment charge recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2016 (see Note 6 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”)). The segment generated operating income of $10.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015. |
• | Our liquids segment, which supplies natural gas liquids to retailers, wholesalers, refiners, and petrochemical plants throughout the United States and in Canada, and which provides natural gas liquids terminaling and storage services through its 18 owned terminals throughout the United States, its salt dome storage facility in Utah, and its leased storage and railcar transportation services through its fleet of leased railcars. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, the segment generated an operating loss of $0.1 million. The segment generated an operating loss of $0.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015. |
• | Our retail propane segment, which sells propane, distillates, and equipment and supplies to end users consisting of residential, agricultural, commercial, and industrial customers and to certain resellers in 25 states and the District of Columbia. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, the segment generated an operating loss of $2.5 million. The segment generated an operating loss of $0.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015. |
• | Our refined products and renewables segment, which conducts gasoline, diesel, ethanol, and biodiesel marketing operations. We purchase refined petroleum and renewable products primarily in the Gulf Coast, Southeast and Midwest regions of the United States and schedule them for delivery at various locations. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, the segment generated operating income of $149.8 million, which includes a gain of $104.1 million recorded on the sale of all of the TransMontaigne Partners L.P. (“TLP”) common units we owned during the three months ended June 30, 2016. The segment generated operating income of $33.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015. |
Correction of Error
As previously reported, subsequent to the issuance of certain previously issued financial statements, in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, we determined that there were errors in those financial statements from not recording certain contingent consideration liabilities related to royalty agreements assumed as part of acquisitions in our water solutions segment. The effect of the error was material to the financial statements for each of the first three fiscal quarters of 2016, so those quarters have been restated for the effects of the error correction. We have restated our previously issued condensed consolidated statement of operations, condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss and condensed consolidated
44
statement of cash flows for the three months ended June 30, 2015. See Note 17 to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report for a summary of the impact of the error correction for the three months ended June 30, 2015.
Recent Developments
Sale of TLP Common Units
On April 1, 2016, we sold all of the TLP common units we owned to an affiliate of ArcLight Capital Partners (“ArcLight”) for approximately $112.4 million in cash and recorded a gain on disposal of $104.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016.
Class A Convertible Preferred Units
During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we issued $240 million of 10.75% Class A Convertible Preferred Units (“Preferred Units”) to Oaktree Capital Management L.P. and their co-investors (“Oaktree”). See Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report which discusses the preferences, rights, powers and duties of holders of the Preferred Units.
Acquisitions
As described below, we completed numerous acquisitions during the year ended March 31, 2016 and several more during the three months ended June 30, 2016. These acquisitions impact the comparability of our results of operations between periods in our current and prior fiscal years.
Year Ending March 31, 2017
During the three months ended June 30, 2016, in our water solutions segment, we (i) acquired an additional interest in an existing water pipeline company, (ii) acquired the remaining ownership interest in a water supply company, and (iii) acquired one saltwater disposal facility. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, in our retail propane segment, we acquired a retail propane business. See Note 4 for a further discussion.
Year Ended March 31, 2016
During the year ended March 31, 2016, in our water solutions segment, we (i) acquired an interest in an existing water pipeline company and (ii) acquired 19 saltwater disposal facilities and an interest in an additional facility. During the year ended March 31, 2016, in our retail propane segment, we acquired six retail propane businesses. See Note 4 for a further discussion.

See the detailed discussion of items affecting operating income (loss) by segment below.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to financial results reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), we have provided the non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be a substitute for those reported in accordance with GAAP. These measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other entities, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.
We define EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to NGL Energy Partners LP, plus interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization expense. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding net unrealized gains and losses on derivatives, lower of cost or market adjustments, gains and losses on disposal or impairment of assets, gain on early extinguishment of liabilities, revaluation of investments, equity-based compensation expense, acquisition expense and other. We also include in Adjusted EBITDA certain inventory valuation adjustments related to our Refined Products and Renewables segment, as described below. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered alternatives to net income, income before income taxes, cash flows from operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP as those items are used to measure operating performance, liquidity or the ability to service debt obligations. We believe that EBITDA provides additional information to investors for evaluating our ability to make quarterly distributions to our unitholders and is presented solely as a supplemental measure. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information to investors for evaluating our financial performance without regard to our financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis. Further, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as we define them, may not be comparable to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, or similarly titled measures used by other entities.
46
Other than for our Refined Products and Renewables segment, for purposes of our Adjusted EBITDA calculation, we make a distinction between realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives. During the period when a derivative contract is open, we record changes in the fair value of the derivative as an unrealized gain or loss. When a derivative contract matures or is settled, we reverse the previously recorded unrealized gain or loss and record a realized gain or loss. We do not draw such a distinction between realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives of our Refined Products and Renewables segment. The primary hedging strategy of our Refined Products and Renewables segment is to hedge against the risk of declines in the value of inventory over the course of the contract cycle, and many of the hedges are six months to one year in duration at inception. The “inventory valuation adjustment” row in the reconciliation table reflects the difference between the market value of the inventory of our Refined Products and Renewables segment at the balance sheet date and its cost. We include this in Adjusted EBITDA because the gains and losses associated with derivative contracts of this segment, which are intended primarily to hedge inventory holding risk, also impact Adjusted EBITDA.
The following table reconciles net income (loss) to our EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the periods indicated:

Segment Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015
Items Impacting the Comparability of Our Financial Results
Our current and future results of operations may not be comparable to our historical results of operations for the periods presented, due to business combinations. We have expanded our water solutions business considerably through numerous acquisitions of water treatment and disposal facilities. We have expanded our retail propane business through numerous acquisitions of retail propane businesses. As previously reported, on February 1, 2016, we sold our general partner interest in TLP. As a result, on February 1, 2016, we deconsolidated TLP and began to account for our limited partner investment in TLP using the equity method of accounting. The results of operations of our liquids and retail propane businesses are impacted by seasonality, due primarily to the increase in volumes sold during the peak heating season from October through March. In addition, product price fluctuations can have a significant impact on our sales volumes and revenues. For these and other reasons, our results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for future periods or for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2017.

(1) | Revenues include $1.6 million and $3.9 million of intersegment sales during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, that are eliminated in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. |
Crude Oil Sales. The decrease in revenue per barrel was due primarily to the sharp decline in crude oil prices since July 2014. The decrease in our sales volumes was due primarily to a slowdown in crude oil production and new drilling of crude oil in the current crude oil price environment. In addition, we also had an increase in buy/sell transactions during the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015. These are transactions in which we transact to purchase product from a counterparty and sell the same volumes of product to the same counterparty at a different location or time. As the revenues and costs of sales are netted for these transaction, so are the volumes.
Crude Oil Transportation and Other Revenues. The decrease was due primarily to the flattening of the contango curve for crude oil during the three months ended June 30, 2016 (a condition in which forward crude oil prices are greater than spot prices), compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015.
50
Cost of Sales. Our cost of sales during the three months ended June 30, 2016 was increased by $8.2 million of net realized losses on derivatives and reduced by $1.4 million of net unrealized gains on derivatives. Our cost of sales during the three months ended June 30, 2015 was increased by $11.3 million of net realized losses on derivatives and reduced by $0.8 million of net unrealized gains on derivatives.
Operating Expenses. The decrease was due primarily to lower compensation expense due primarily to a reduction in the number of employees as a result of organizational changes and lower repair and maintenance expense due to having a newer fleet of barges and the timing of repairs.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. The decrease was due primarily to certain intangible assets being fully amortized during the year ended March 31, 2016.
Loss (Gain) on Disposal or Impairment of Assets, Net. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, (i) we retired a barge and recorded a loss of $0.9 million and (ii) recorded a loss on sale of $0.5 million related to pipe we no longer expect to use in the originally-planned Grand Mesa Pipeline.

Total | $ | 25,697 | 41,172 | 0.62 | $ | 36,738 | 54,476 | 0.67 |
The decrease in the volume processed at our existing facilities was due primarily to a slowdown in customer production as a result of the lower crude oil prices, as well as migration of volumes from existing facilities to recently developed or acquired facilities due to the location of the new facilities.
Recovered Hydrocarbon Revenues. The following table summarizes our recovered hydrocarbon revenues (in thousands, except per barrel amounts) for the periods indicated:

Total | $ | 7,196 | 41,172 | 0.17 | $ | 15,818 | 54,476 | 0.29 |
The decrease in revenue per barrel associated with recovered hydrocarbons was due primarily to the sharp decline in crude oil prices since July 2014 and a decrease in the volume of hydrocarbons recovered per barrel of water processed.
Other Revenues. Other revenues include solids disposal revenues, freshwater revenues, water pipeline revenues and other revenues. The increase was due primarily to an increase in revenues in the freshwater business and water pipeline business.
Cost of Sales. We enter into derivatives in our water solutions segment to protect against the risk of a decline in the market price of the hydrocarbons we expected to recover when processing the wastewater. Our cost of sales during the three months ended June 30, 2016 included $3.7 million of net realized losses on derivatives and $1.3 million of net unrealized losses on derivatives. Our cost of sales during the three months ended June 30, 2015 included $1.9 million of net realized losses on derivatives and $1.7 million of net unrealized losses on derivatives.

The decrease in operating expenses for existing facilities was due primarily to lower operating costs of water disposal wells at existing facilities due to lower volumes processed.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Of the increase, $2.0 million related to recently acquired or developed water treatment and disposal facilities and $1.3 million related to recently developed solids processing facilities.
(Gain) Loss on Disposal or Impairment of Assets, Net. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we recorded the reversal of $124.7 million of the previously recorded $380.2 million goodwill impairment charge recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2016 (see Note 6 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report). During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we wrote-off $5.2 million related to the value of an indefinite-lived trade name intangible asset in conjunction with finalizing our goodwill impairment analysis (see Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report). During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we recorded a loss of $22.7 million related to the termination of the development agreement, which includes the carrying value of the development agreement asset that has been written off (see Note 15 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report).
Revaluation of Liabilities. The revaluation of liabilities represents the valuation adjustment of contingent consideration liabilities related to royalty agreements acquired as part of certain business combinations during the three months ended June 30, 2015. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we did not identify any significant changes in our Water Solutions operations, which would require a revaluation of the contingent consideration obligation, and as such, no adjustment was recorded.

(1) | During the six months ended September 30, 2015, we made certain changes in the way we attribute revenues to railcar cost of sales to the categories shown in the table above. These changes did not impact total revenues or total cost of sales. We have retrospectively adjusted previously reported amounts to conform to the current presentation. |
(2) | Revenues include $12.3 million and $13.5 million of intersegment sales during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, that are eliminated in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. |
Propane Sales. The decrease in volumes was due to significantly warmer temperatures in the prior year winter for which suppliers had full storage capacity and their ordering has been slow to pick up.
Our cost of wholesale propane sales was reduced by $0.9 million of net unrealized gains on derivatives and $0.5 million of net realized gains on derivatives during the three months ended June 30, 2016. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, our cost of wholesale propane sales was increased by $1.0 million of net unrealized losses on derivatives and reduced by $0.7 million of net realized gains on derivatives. The decrease in cost per gallon of propane was due to the
54
continued lower commodity prices.
Product margins per gallon of propane sold were higher during the three months ended June 30, 2016 than during the three months ended June 30, 2015. Product margins have improved because depressed market prices through last winter have led to lower inventory values to start out the new supply year.
Other Products Sales. The decrease in the volume of other products sold was primarily due to reductions in production volumes as a result of low crude oil prices.
Our cost of sales of other products was increased by $1.8 million of net unrealized losses on derivatives and reduced by $0.5 million of net realized gains on derivatives during the three months ended June 30, 2016. Our cost of sales of other products during the three months ended June 30, 2015 was increased by $1.6 million of net unrealized losses on derivatives and $0.3 million of net realized losses on derivatives.
Product margins during the three months ended June 30, 2015 benefited from a high level of butane supply in the market, which lowered our product cost.
Other Revenues. This revenue includes storage, terminaling and transportation services income. Other revenues decreased due to transportation services. While railcar costs have held steady, the value we can get for the railcar in the market has dropped significantly year over year.
Operating Expenses. The decrease was due primarily to a reduction in overall compensation expense due to lower incentive compensation.
General and Administrative Expenses. The decrease was due primarily to a reduction in overall compensation expense.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. The decrease was due primarily to a decrease in monthly amortization rates for intangible assets acquired as part of the Sawtooth acquisition in February 2015, as the initial fair values allocated to the intangible assets were reduced when the purchase accounting was finalized.

Revenues. The decrease in both propane and distillate revenues was due to lower prices per gallon due to an oversupply in the propane market, which lowered commodity prices, as well as the significantly warmer temperatures during the winter in the prior year. Volumes increased slightly due to acquisitions of retail propane businesses.
Cost of Sales. The decrease for both propane and distillates was due to lower commodity prices.
Operating Expenses. The increase was due primarily to increased compensation expense from acquisitions of retail propane businesses.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. The increase was due primarily to acquisitions of retail propane businesses.

Refined Products and Renewables
The following table summarizes the operating results of our refined products and renewables segment for the periods indicated. As previously reported, on February 1, 2016, we sold our general partner interest in TLP. As a result, on February 1, 2016, we deconsolidated TLP and began to account for our limited partner investment in TLP using the equity method of accounting. Also, as discussed in “Recent Developments” above, on April 1, 2016, we sold all of the TLP common units we owned.

Refined Products Sales and Cost of Sales. The increase in revenues and cost of sales was due primarily to increased volumes, partially offset by a decrease in refined products prices. The increased volumes were due primarily to an increase in pipeline capacity allocations purchased during the year ended March 31, 2016 and three months ended June 30, 2016 as well as expanding our refined products operations. Cost of sales also increased during the three months ended June 30, 2016 due primarily to storage fees paid to TLP which are no longer eliminated as TLP was deconsolidated on February 1, 2016.
57
Renewables Sales. The increase in revenues was due primarily to increased volumes, partially offset by a decrease in renewables prices. The increased volumes were due primarily to being able to liquidate storage volumes as the renewables markets shifted from being in contango (a condition in which forward renewables prices are greater than spot prices) to being backwardated (a condition in which forward renewables prices are lower than spot prices) during the three months ended June 30, 2016.
Service Fee Revenues, Operating Expenses, General and Administrative Expenses, Depreciation and Amortization Expense. The decrease in each of these line items was due primarily to the inclusion of TLP for the three months ended June 30, 2015 with no comparable activity in the current quarter as TLP was deconsolidated on February 1, 2016.
Gain on Disposal or Impairment of Assets, Net. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we recognized a $104.1 million gain from the sale of all of the TLP units we owned. In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2016, we recognized $7.5 million of the deferred gain from the sale of the general partner in interest in TLP in February 2016.

Operating loss | $ | (32,149 | ) | $ | (55,466 | ) | $ | 23,317 |
General and Administrative Expenses. The decrease was due primarily to lower compensation expense, particularly, incentive compensation during the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015.
As part of its review of our executive compensation program, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved a new type of equity-based compensation award, under which the number of units that vest is contingent upon the performance of our common units relative to the performance of other entities in the Alerian MLP Index. We re-value the unvested Performance Awards at each reporting date using a Monte Carlo simulation and adjust the amount of expense accordingly. As a result of a decline in the market value of our common units compared to our peers in the Alerian MLP Index during the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015, we recorded expense of $1.5 million three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $17.8 million three months ended June 30, 2015.
We have also granted certain Service Awards, which vest contingent only on the continued service of the recipients. For these awards, we adjust our expense accruals for unvested Service Awards at each reporting date based on the market price of our common units. The expense associated with these Service Awards (exclusive of accruals of annual bonuses paid or expected to be paid in common units) was $20.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $18.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015.
Other compensation expense also decreased by approximately $5.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015, primarily as a result of the sale of our general partner interest in TLP and continued focus on cost management.
Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Entities
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities was $0.4 million and $8.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The decrease was due primarily to a decrease of $5.8 million of earnings from TLP
58
(including Battleground Oil Specialty Terminal Company LLC and Frontera Brownsville LLC) that we acquired as part of our July 2014 acquisition of TransMontaigne. On February 1, 2016, we deconsolidated TLP when we sold our general partner interest in TLP, and on April 1, 2016, we sold all of the TLP common units we owned. Also contributing to this decrease was a decrease of $2.1 million in earnings from our investments in Glass Mountain Pipeline, LLC and a water supply company. On June 3, 2016, we acquired the remaining 65% ownership interest in the water supply company and have now consolidated this entity.
Revaluation of Investments
On June 3, 2016, we acquired the remaining 65% ownership interest in a water supply company. Prior to the completion of this transaction we accounted for the 35% of this water supply company using the equity method of accounting (see Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report). As we now own a controlling interest in this entity, we revalued our 35% ownership interest to fair value and recorded a loss of $14.9 million. As the amount paid (cash plus the fair value of our previous ownership interest) was less than the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we recorded a gain on bargain purchase of $0.6 million.
Interest Expense
Interest expense includes interest expense on our revolving credit facilities and senior notes, amortization of debt issuance costs, letter of credit fees, interest on equipment financing notes, and accretion of interest on noninterest bearing debt obligations. The decrease was due primarily to lower interest expense related to TLP’s credit facility (our interest in TLP was acquired in July 2014, and we deconsolidated TLP as of February 1, 2016), partially offset by the increased level of debt outstanding on our Revolving Credit Facility (as defined herein) (the average balance outstanding on our Revolving Credit Facility was $1.8 billion during the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $1.5 billion during the three months ended June 30, 2015), primarily to finance acquisitions and capital expenditures.
Gain on Early Extinguishment of Liabilities
During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we repurchased $5.0 million of our 2019 Notes (as defined herein) and $19.2 million of our 2021 Notes (as defined herein) for an aggregate purchase price of $15.1 million (excluding payments of accrued interest). As a result, we recorded a gain on the early extinguishment of these notes of $8.6 million (net of the write off of debt issuance costs of $0.5 million).
As discussed in Note 15 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report, we accounted for the termination of the development agreement as an acquisition of assets (see Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for a further discussion) and recorded a gain of $21.3 million gain on the release of $46.8 million of contingent consideration liabilities.

Income Tax Expense
We qualify as a partnership for income tax purposes. As such, we generally do not pay United States federal income tax. Rather, each owner reports his or her share of our income or loss on his or her individual tax return. The aggregate difference in the basis of our net assets for financial and tax reporting purposes cannot be readily determined, as we do not have access to information regarding each partner’s basis in the Partnership.
We have certain taxable corporate subsidiaries in the United States and in Canada, and our operations in Texas are subject to a state franchise tax that is calculated based on revenues net of cost of sales. Our fiscal years 2012 to 2015 generally remain subject to examination by federal, state, and Canadian tax authorities. We utilize the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply in the years in which these temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Changes in tax rates are recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Income tax expense was $0.5 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.
Noncontrolling Interests
We have certain consolidated subsidiaries in which outside parties own interests. The noncontrolling interest shown in our condensed consolidated financial statements represents the other owners’ interests in these entities.
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $5.8 million and $4.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase was due primarily to the acquisition of an additional 24.5% interest in a water pipeline company in June 2016, partially offset by the deconsolidation of TLP on February 1, 2016 as a result of the sale of our general partner interest in TLP.
Liquidity, Sources of Capital and Capital Resource Activities
Our principal sources of liquidity and capital are the cash flows from our operations and borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility. See Note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for a detailed description of our long-term debt. Our cash flows from operations are discussed below.
Our borrowing needs vary during the year due in part to the seasonal nature of our liquids business. Our greatest working capital borrowing needs generally occur during the period of June through December, when we are building our natural gas liquids inventories in anticipation of the heating season. Our working capital borrowing needs generally decline during the period of January through March, when the cash flows from our retail propane and liquids segments are the greatest.
Our partnership agreement requires that, within 45 days after the end of each quarter, we distribute all of our available cash (as defined in our partnership agreement) to unitholders as of the record date. Available cash for any quarter generally consists of all cash on hand at the end of that quarter, less the amount of cash reserves established by our general partner, to (i) provide for the proper conduct of our business, (ii) comply with applicable law, any of our debt instruments or other agreements, and (iii) provide funds for distributions to our unitholders and to our general partner for any one or more of the next four quarters.
We believe that our anticipated cash flows from operations and the borrowing capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility are sufficient to meet our liquidity needs. If our plans or assumptions change or are inaccurate, or if we make acquisitions, we may need to raise additional capital or sell assets. Our ability to raise additional capital, if necessary, depends on various factors and conditions, including market conditions. We cannot give any assurances that we can raise additional capital to meet these needs. Commitments or expenditures, if any, we may make toward any acquisition projects are at our discretion.
We have historically pursued a strategy of growth through acquisitions. Under current market conditions, the cost of capital is much higher than it has been in recent years; prospective lenders seek much higher interest rates than they have sought in the past, and at our prior distribution level of $0.64 per common unit, the yield on our common units was much higher than it had been in the past. In April 2016, the board of directors of our general partner decided to reduce our distribution level from $0.64 per common unit to $0.39 per common unit, which it anticipates will continue for two additional quarters
60
under current market conditions. We expect the reduction in the distribution to provide us with approximately $170 million of annual cash savings to enhance liquidity, repay indebtedness and/or invest in selected growth projects.
Under current market conditions, we are much less likely to pursue acquisitions than we have been in the past. We continue to undertake certain capital expansion projects, including the funding of our portion of the construction of a crude oil pipeline (the “Joint Pipeline”), our assets that will be connected to the Joint Pipeline and the continued development of Sawtooth natural gas liquids storage caverns, among others. We expect to be able to finance these projects through available capacity on our Revolving Credit Facility, asset sales or other forms of financing.
Other sources of liquidity during the three months ended June 30, 2016 are discussed below.
Sale of TLP Common Units
On April 1, 2016, we sold all of the TLP common units we owned to ArcLight for approximately $112.4 million in cash and recorded a gain on disposal of $104.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016.
Class A Convertible Preferred Units
During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we issued $240 million of 10.75% Class A Convertible Preferred Units to Oaktree. See Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report which discusses the preferences, rights, powers and duties of holders of the Preferred Units.
Long-Term Debt
Credit Agreement
We have entered into a credit agreement (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks. The Credit Agreement includes a revolving credit facility to fund working capital needs (the “Working Capital Facility”) and a revolving credit facility to fund acquisitions and expansion projects (the “Expansion Capital Facility,” and together with the Working Capital Facility, the “Revolving Credit Facility”). At June 30, 2016, our Revolving Credit Facility had a total capacity of $2.484 billion. Our Revolving Credit Facility has an “accordion” feature that allows us to increase the capacity by $150 million if new lenders wish to join the syndicate or if current lenders wish to increase their commitments.
The Expansion Capital Facility had a total capacity of $1.446 billion for cash borrowings at June 30, 2016. At that date, we had outstanding borrowings of $1.172 billion on the Expansion Capital Facility. The Working Capital Facility had a total capacity of $1.038 billion for cash borrowings and letters of credit at June 30, 2016. At that date, we had outstanding borrowings of $655.5 million and outstanding letters of credit of $71.6 million on the Working Capital Facility. Amounts outstanding for letters of credit are not recorded as long-term debt on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, although they decrease our borrowing capacity under the Working Capital Facility. The capacity available under the Working Capital Facility may be limited by a “borrowing base” (as defined in the Credit Agreement), which is calculated based on the value of certain working capital items at any point in time.
The commitments under the Credit Agreement expire on November 5, 2018. We have the right to prepay outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement without incurring any penalties, and prepayments of principal may be required if we enter into certain transactions to sell assets or obtain new borrowings.
All borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at our option, at either (i) an alternate base rate plus a margin of 0.50% to 1.50% per year or (ii) an adjusted LIBOR rate plus a margin of 1.50% to 2.50% per year. The applicable margin is determined based on our consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). At June 30, 2016, the borrowings under the Credit Agreement were LIBOR borrowings with an interest rate at June 30, 2016 of 2.73%, calculated as the LIBOR rate of 0.48% plus a margin of 2.25%. At June 30, 2016, the interest rate in effect on letters of credit was 2.50%. Commitment fees are charged at a rate ranging from 0.38% to 0.50% on any unused capacity.
The Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of our assets. The Credit Agreement also specifies that our leverage ratio cannot be more than 4.50 to 1 and that interest coverage ratio cannot be less than 2.75 to 1 at any quarter end. At June 30, 2016, our leverage ratio was approximately 4.0 to 1 and our interest coverage ratio was approximately 4.7 to 1.
At June 30, 2016, we were in compliance with the covenants under the Credit Agreement.
61
2019 Notes
On July 9, 2014, we issued $400.0 million of 5.125% Senior Notes Due 2019 (the “2019 Notes”). During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we repurchased $5.0 million of our 2019 Notes for an aggregate purchase price of $3.1 million (excluding payments of accrued interest). As a result, we recorded a gain on the early extinguishment of our 2019 Notes of $1.8 million (net of the write off of debt issuance costs of $0.1 million).
The 2019 Notes mature on July 15, 2019. Interest is payable on January 15 and July 15 of each year. We have the right to redeem the 2019 Notes before the maturity date, although we would be required to pay a premium for early redemption.
At June 30, 2016, we were in compliance with the covenants under the indenture governing the 2019 Notes.
2021 Notes
On October 16, 2013, we issued $450.0 million of 6.875% Senior Notes Due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”). During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we repurchased $19.2 million of our 2021 Notes for an aggregate purchase price of $12.0 million (excluding payments of accrued interest). As a result, we recorded a gain on the early extinguishment of our 2021 Notes of $6.8 million (net of the write off of debt issuance costs of $0.4 million).
The 2021 Notes mature on October 15, 2021. Interest is payable on April 15 and October 15 of each year. We have the right to redeem the 2021 Notes before the maturity date, although we would be required to pay a premium for early redemption.
At June 30, 2016, we were in compliance with the covenants under the indenture governing the 2021 Notes.
2022 Notes
On June 19, 2012, we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (as amended, the “Note Purchase Agreement”) whereby we issued $250.0 million of Senior Notes in a private placement (the “2022 Notes”). The 2022 Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.65%, which is payable quarterly. The 2022 Notes are required to be repaid in semi-annual installments of $25.0 million beginning on December 19, 2017 and ending on the maturity date of June 19, 2022. We have the option to prepay outstanding principal, although we would incur a prepayment penalty. The 2022 Notes are secured by substantially all of our assets and rank equal in priority with borrowings under the Credit Agreement.
At June 30, 2016, we were in compliance with the covenants under the Note Purchase Agreement.

Investing activities | (75,513 | ) | (222,697 | ) | ||||
Financing activities | 129,637 | 143,071 |
Operating Activities. The seasonality of our natural gas liquids businesses has a significant effect on our cash flows from operating activities. Increases in natural gas liquids prices typically reduce our operating cash flows due to higher cash requirements to fund increases in inventories, and decreases in natural gas liquids prices typically increase our operating cash flows due to lower cash requirements to fund increases in inventories.
In general, our operating cash flows are at their lowest levels during our first and second fiscal quarters, or the six months ending September 30, when we experience operating losses or lower operating income as a result of lower volumes of natural gas liquids sales and when we are building our inventory levels for the upcoming heating season. Our operating cash flows are generally greatest during our third and fourth fiscal quarters, or the six months ending March 31, when our operating income levels are highest and customers pay for natural gas liquids consumed during the heating season months. We borrow under our Revolving Credit Facility to supplement our operating cash flows as necessary during our first and second fiscal quarters.
Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities was $75.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $222.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities was due primarily to:
• | $112.4 million in proceeds received from the sale of the TLP common units we owned during the three months ended June 30, 2016; |
• | a $49.4 million decrease in cash paid for acquisitions during the three months ended June 30, 2016; |
• | a decrease in capital expenditures from $122.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015 to $99.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016; and |
• | a $14.6 million decrease related to a loan receivable from an equity method investee as we purchased the remaining ownership interest in this equity method investee and, therefore, consolidated this previous equity method investee in our condensed consolidated financial statements during the three months ended June 30, 2016. |
63
These decreases were partially offset by:
• | $40.4 million to acquire certain refined product pipeline capacity allocations from other shippers on the Colonial pipeline during the three months ended June 30, 2016; and |
• | a $16.9 million payment to terminate the development agreement (see Note 15 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report). |
Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $129.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $143.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in net cash provided by financing activities was due primarily to:
• | a $244.0 million decrease in borrowings on our revolving credit facilities (net of repayments) to fund our operating or investing requirements during the three months ended June 30, 2016; |
• | a $25.5 million release of contingent consideration liabilities related to the termination of the development agreement during the three months ended June 30, 2016 (see Note 15 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report); and |
• | $15.1 million in repurchases of a portion of our oustanding senior notes during the three months ended June 30, 2016. |
These decreases were partially offset by:
• | $235.2 million in proceeds received (net of offering costs) from the sale of our Preferred Units and warrants during the three months ended June 30, 2016; and |
• | a $40.1 million decrease in distributions paid to our partners and noncontrolling interest owners during the three months ended June 30, 2016. |

(1) | The estimated interest payments on our Revolving Credit Facility are based on principal and letters of credit outstanding at June 30, 2016. See Note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for additional information on our Credit Agreement. |
(2) | We have executed noncancelable agreements with crude oil and refined products pipeline operators, which guarantee us minimum monthly shipping capacity on the pipelines. As a result, we are required to pay the minimum shipping fees if actual shipments are less than our allotted capacity. |
(3) | At June 30, 2016, we had the following construction commitments: |
• | As previously reported, in November 2015, we reached an agreement with Saddlehorn Pipeline Company, LLC to jointly construct, own and operate the Joint Pipeline. At June 30, 2016, our share of total construction costs for the Joint Pipeline has been paid. We expect the Joint Pipeline to be operational beginning in the third quarter of fiscal year 2017. |
• | As part of the Joint Pipeline project, we will have some assets connected to the Joint Pipeline. At June 30, 2016, the remaining costs for these assets are approximately $52.1 million. We expect these assets to be completed during the third quarter of fiscal year 2017. |
• | In February 2015, we acquired Sawtooth, which owns a natural gas liquids salt dome storage facility in Utah with rail and truck access to western United States markets and entered into a construction agreement to expand the storage capacity of the facility. At June 30, 2016, the remaining costs for this project are $7.1 million. We expect this project to be completed by the end of the second quarter of the fiscal year 2017. |

Index prices are based on a forward price curve at June 30, 2016. A theoretical change of $0.10 per gallon in the underlying commodity price at June 30, 2016 would result in a change of $81.4 million in the value of our index-price natural gas liquids purchase commitments. A theoretical change of $1.00 per barrel in the underlying commodity price at June 30, 2016 would result in a change of $17.2 million in the value of our index-price crude oil purchase commitments.
Sales Contracts
We have entered into product sales contracts for which we expect the parties to physically settle the inventory in future periods. At June 30, 2016, we had the following sales contract volumes (in thousands):
Natural gas liquids fixed-price (gallons) | 118,257 | ||
Natural gas liquids index-price (gallons) | 438,941 | ||
Crude oil fixed-price (barrels) | 2,739 | ||
Crude oil index-price (barrels) | 18,011 |
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements other than the operating leases described in Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.
Environmental Legislation
See our Annual Report for a discussion of proposed environmental legislation and regulations that, if enacted, could result in increased compliance and operating costs. However, at this time we cannot predict the structure or outcome of any future legislation or regulations or the eventual cost we could incur in compliance.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
For a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements that are applicable to us, see Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires the selection and application of appropriate accounting principles to the relevant facts and circumstances of the Partnership’s operations and the use of estimates made by management. We have identified certain accounting policies that are most important to the portrayal of our consolidated financial position and results of operations. The application of these accounting policies, which requires
66
subjective or complex judgments regarding estimates and projected outcomes of future events, and changes in these accounting policies, could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. There have been no material changes in the critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Annual Report.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
A significant portion of our long-term debt is variable-rate debt. Changes in interest rates impact the interest payments of our variable-rate debt but generally do not impact the fair value of the liability. Conversely, changes in interest rates impact the fair value of our fixed-rate debt but do not impact its cash flows.
Our Revolving Credit Facility is variable-rate debt with interest rates that are generally indexed to bank prime or LIBOR interest rates. At June 30, 2016, we had $1.8 billion of outstanding borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility at a rate of 2.73%. A change in interest rates of 0.125% would result in an increase or decrease of our annual interest expense of $2.3 million, based on borrowings outstanding at June 30, 2016.
Commodity Price and Credit Risk
Our operations are subject to certain business risks, including commodity price risk and credit risk. Commodity price risk is the risk that the market value of crude oil, natural gas liquids, or refined products will change, either favorably or unfavorably, in response to changing market conditions. Credit risk is the risk of loss from nonperformance by suppliers, customers or financial counterparties to a contract.
Procedures and limits for managing commodity price risks and credit risks are specified in our market risk policy and credit risk policy, respectively. Open commodity positions and market price changes are monitored daily and are reported to senior management and to marketing operations personnel. Credit risk is monitored daily and exposure is minimized through customer deposits, restrictions on product liftings, letters of credit, and entering into master netting agreements that allow for offsetting counterparty receivable and payable balances for certain transactions. At June 30, 2016, our primary counterparties were retailers, resellers, energy marketers, producers, refiners, and dealers.
The crude oil, natural gas liquids, and refined products industries are “margin-based” and “cost-plus” businesses in which gross profits depend on the differential of sales prices over supply costs. We have no control over market conditions. As a result, our profitability may be impacted by sudden and significant changes in the price of crude oil, natural gas liquids, and refined products.
We engage in various types of forward contracts and financial derivative transactions to reduce the effect of price volatility on our product costs, to protect the value of our inventory positions, and to help ensure the availability of product during periods of short supply. We attempt to balance our contractual portfolio by purchasing volumes when we have a matching purchase commitment from our wholesale and retail customers. We may experience net unbalanced positions from time to time. In addition to our ongoing policy to maintain a balanced position, for accounting purposes we are required, on an ongoing basis, to track and report the market value of our derivative portfolio.
Although we use financial derivative instruments to reduce the market price risk associated with forecasted transactions, we do not account for financial derivative transactions as hedges. We record the changes in fair value of these financial derivative transactions within cost of sales. The following table summarizes the hypothetical impact on the June 30, 2016 fair value of our commodity derivatives of an increase of 10% in the value of the underlying commodity (in thousands):
Increase (Decrease) To Fair Value | |||
Crude oil (crude oil logistics segment) | $ | (4,448 | ) |
Crude oil (water solutions segment) | (2,511 | ) | |
Propane (liquids segment) | 628 | ||
Other products (liquids segment) | (2,159 | ) | |
Refined products (refined products and renewables segment) | (38,277 | ) | |
Renewables (refined products and renewables segment) | (2,720 | ) | |
Canadian dollars (liquids segment) | 903 |
67
Fair Value
We use observable market values for determining the fair value of our derivative instruments. In cases where actively quoted prices are not available, other external sources are used which incorporate information about commodity prices in actively quoted markets, quoted prices in less active markets and other market fundamental analysis.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our filings and submissions under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of our general partner, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We completed an evaluation under the supervision and with participation of our management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of our general partner, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures at June 30, 2016. Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of our general partner have concluded that as of June 30, 2016, such disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide the reasonable assurance described above.
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended June 30, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are involved from time to time in various legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. For information related to legal proceedings, see the discussion under the captions “Legal Contingencies” and “Environmental Matters” in Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which information is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) has informed NGL Crude Logistics, LLC (“NGL Crude” formerly known as Gavilon, LLC (“Gavilon Energy”) prior to its acquisition by us in December 2013) of alleged violations in 2011 by Gavilon Energy of the Clean Air Act’s renewable fuel standards regulations. The EPA’s allegations relate to transactions between Gavilon Energy and one of its suppliers and the generation of biodiesel renewable identification numbers sold by such supplier to Gavilon Energy in 2011. We have vigorously denied the allegations. In an effort to resolve this matter, the parties previously commenced settlement negotiations, which are ongoing.
At this time, we are unable to ascertain whether the settlement discussions will produce a resolution satisfactory to us or whether the EPA will seek resolution of the matter through an enforcement action. As a result, we are also unable to determine the likely terms of any resolution or their significance to us. Although we believe we have legal defenses, it is reasonably possible that we may agree to pay the EPA some amount to settle the matter.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Except for the risk factors discussed below, there have been no material changes in the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A–“Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2016.
The Preferred Units give the holders thereof liquidation and distribution preferences, certain rights relating to our business and management, and the ability to convert such units into our common units, potentially causing dilution to our common unitholders.
In June 2016, we issued 19,942,169 10.75% Class A Convertible Preferred Units (“Preferred Units”), which rank senior to the common units with respect to distribution rights and rights upon liquidation. Subject to certain exceptions, as long as any Preferred Units remain outstanding, we may not declare any distribution on our common units unless all accumulated and unpaid distributions have been declared and paid on the Preferred Units. In the event of our liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, the holders of the Preferred Units would have the right to receive proceeds from any such transaction before the holders of the common units. The payment of the liquidation preference could result in common unitholders not receiving any consideration if we were to liquidate, dissolve or wind up, either voluntarily or involuntarily. Additionally, the existence of the liquidation preference may reduce the value of the common units, make it harder for us to sell common units in offerings in the future, or prevent or delay a change of control.
In connection with the issuance of the Preferred Units, we entered into an agreement with Oaktree pursuant to which we granted them the right to appoint one member to the board of directors of our general partner. In addition, the holders of the Preferred Units have the right to vote, under certain conditions, on an as-converted basis with our common unitholders on matters submitted to a unitholder vote. Also, as long as any Preferred Units are outstanding, subject to certain exceptions, the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Preferred Units, voting together as a separate class, will be necessary for effecting or validating, among other things: (i) any action to be taken that adversely affects any of the rights, preferences or privileges of the Preferred Units, (ii) amending the terms of the Preferred Units, (iii) the issuance of any additional Preferred Units or equity security senior in right of distribution or in liquidation to the Preferred Units, (iv) any issuance of preferred equity securities by any of our consolidated controlled subsidiaries of any issued or authorized amount of, any specific class or series of securities, (v) any issuance by us of parity units, subject to certain exceptions and (vi) the ability to incur funded indebtedness for borrowed money if pro forma for such incurrence, the Adjusted Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) would exceed 5.50. These restrictions may adversely affect our ability to finance future operations or capital needs or to engage in other business activities.
Furthermore, the conversion of the Preferred Units into common units, as early as three years from the issuance date of the Preferred Units, may cause substantial dilution to holders of the common units. Because the board of directors of our general partner is entitled to designate the powers and preferences of Preferred Units without a vote of our unitholders, subject to New York Stock Exchange rules and regulations, our unitholders will have no control over what designations and preferences our future preferred units, if any, will have.
69
The issuance of common units upon exercise of the warrants may cause dilution to existing common unitholders and may place downward pressure on the trading price of our common units.
In connection with our issuance of Preferred Units in June 2016, we issued warrants exercisable into a maximum of 4,345,112 common units, with an exercise price of $0.01 per common unit. One-third of the warrants are exercisable beginning on or after the first anniversary of the original issue date, another one-third of the warrant units from and after the second anniversary of the original issue date and the final one-third may be converted from and after the third anniversary. The future exercise of the warrants by the holders of those securities may cause a reduction in the relative voting power and percentage ownership interests of our other common unitholders, and may place downward pressure on the trading price of our common units.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we issued $240 million of 10.75% Class A Convertible Preferred Units with 4,345,112 warrants. See Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for a further discussion of the transaction. The Preferred Units and warrants were issued in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof, as a transaction by an issuer not involving any public offering.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
Not applicable.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

Item 5. Other Information
