TABLE OF CONTENTS
EXPLANATORY NOTE
PBF Logistics LP (“PBFX” or the “Partnership”) is a Delaware limited partnership formed in February 2013. PBF Logistics GP LLC (“PBF GP” or “our general partner”) serves as the general partner of PBFX. PBF GP is wholly-owned by PBF Energy Company LLC (“PBF LLC”). PBF Energy Inc. (“PBF Energy”) is the sole managing member of PBF LLC and as of September 30, 2015 owned 94.4% of the total economic interest in PBF LLC. In addition, PBF LLC is the sole managing member of PBF Holding Company LLC (“PBF Holding”), a Delaware limited liability company and affiliate of PBFX. On May 14, 2014, PBFX completed its initial public offering (the “Offering”). PBF LLC holds a 53.7% limited partner interest in PBFX and owns all of PBFX’s incentive distribution rights ("IDR"), with the remaining 46.3% limited partner interest owned by public unitholders as of September 30, 2015.
Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) to “Predecessor,” and “we,” “our,” “us,” or like terms, when used in the context of periods prior to May 14, 2014, refer to PBF MLP Predecessor, our predecessor for accounting purposes, which includes assets, liabilities and results of operations of certain crude oil and refined product transportation, terminaling and storage assets, previously operated and owned by PBF Holding's subsidiaries, Delaware City Refining Company LLC (“DCR”), Toledo Refining Company LLC (“TRC”), and PBF Holding's previously held subsidiary, Delaware Pipeline Company (“DPC”). As of September 30, 2015, PBF Holding, together with its subsidiaries, owns and operates
three oil refineries and related facilities in North America. PBF Energy, through its ownership of PBF LLC, controls all of the business and affairs of PBFX and PBF Holding.
PBFX's initial assets consisted of the Delaware City Rail Unloading Terminal (“DCR Rail Terminal”), which was part of PBF Holding’s Delaware City, Delaware refinery, and the Toledo Truck Unloading Terminal (“Toledo Truck Terminal”), which was part of PBF Holding’s Toledo, Ohio refinery, which together with the DCR Rail Terminal, we refer to as the IPO Assets. On September 30, 2014, the Partnership acquired from PBF LLC the Delaware City West Heavy Unloading Rack (the “DCR West Rack”), a heavy crude oil rail unloading facility at the Delaware City refinery with total throughput capacity of at least 40,000 barrels per day (“bpd”). In addition, on December 11, 2014, the Partnership acquired from PBF LLC a tank farm and related facilities located at PBF Energy's Toledo refinery, including a propane storage and loading facility (the “Toledo Storage Facility”). Furthermore, on May 14, 2015, the Partnership acquired from PBF LLC a 23.4 mile, 16-inch interstate petroleum products pipeline with capacity in excess of 125,000 bpd (the “Delaware City Products Pipeline”) and a 15-lane, 76,000 bpd capacity truck loading rack (the “Delaware City Truck Rack”) located at PBF Holding's Delaware City, Delaware refinery. The Delaware City Products Pipeline and the Delaware City Truck Rack are collectively referred to as the “Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack.” The transactions entered into after the Offering are collectively referred to as “Acquisitions from PBF.” The Acquisitions from PBF were transfers between entities under common control. Accordingly, the financial information of the Predecessor and the Partnership contained herein have been retrospectively adjusted to include the historical results of the Acquisitions from PBF for all periods presented prior to the effective date of each transaction.
References in this Form 10-Q to “PBF Logistics LP,” “PBFX,” the “Partnership” and “we,” “our,” “us,” or like terms used in the context of periods on or after May 14, 2014, refer to PBF Logistics LP and its subsidiaries.
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Form 10-Q (including information incorporated by reference) contains certain “forward-looking statements,” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, of expected future developments that involve risks and uncertainties. You can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” or “anticipates” or similar expressions that relate to our strategy, plans or intentions. All statements we make relating to our estimated and projected earnings, margins, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results or to our expectations regarding future industry trends are forward-looking statements. In addition, we, through our senior management, from time to time make forward-looking public statements concerning our expected future operations and performance and other developments. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, and, therefore, our actual results may differ materially from those that we expected. We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations, which we refer to as “cautionary statements,” are disclosed under “Item 1A. Risk Factors”, “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended September 30, 2015, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, which we refer to as our 2014 Form 10-K, in our Form 8-K issued September 2, 2015, which retrospectively adjusted Items 6, 7 and 8 of our 2014 Form 10-K to give retrospective effect to the acquisition of the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack, and in our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All forward-looking information in this Form 10-Q and subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements. Some of the factors that we believe could affect our results include:
• | our limited operating history as a separate public partnership; |
• | changes in general economic conditions; |
• | our ability to make, complete and integrate acquisitions from affiliates or third parties; |
• | our ability to have sufficient cash from operations to enable us to pay the minimum quarterly distribution; |
• | competitive conditions in our industry; |
• | actions taken by our customers and competitors; |
• | the supply of, and demand for, crude oil, refined products and logistics services; |
• | our ability to successfully implement our business plan; |
• | our dependence on PBF Energy for all of our revenues and, therefore, we are subject to the business risks of PBF Energy; |
• | all of our revenue is generated at two of PBF Energy’s facilities, and any adverse development at either facility could have a material adverse effect on us; |
• | our ability to complete internal growth projects on time and on budget; |
• | the price and availability of debt and equity financing; |
• | operating hazards and other risks incidental to handling crude oil and petroleum products; |
• | natural disasters, weather-related delays, casualty losses and other matters beyond our control; |
• | interest rates; |
• | labor relations; |
• | changes in the availability and cost of capital; |
• | the effects of existing and future laws and governmental regulations, including those related to the shipment of crude oil by trains; |
• | changes in insurance markets impacting costs and the level and types of coverage available; |
• | the timing and extent of changes in commodity prices and demand for PBF Energy’s refined products and the differential in the prices of different crude oils; |
• | the suspension, reduction or termination of PBF Energy’s obligations under our commercial agreements; |
• | disruptions due to equipment interruption or failure at our facilities, PBF Energy’s facilities or third-party facilities on which our business is dependent; |
• | incremental costs as a stand-alone public company; |
• | our general partner and its affiliates, including PBF Energy, have conflicts of interest with us and limited duties to us and our unitholders, and they may favor their own interests to the detriment of us and our other common unitholders; |
• | our partnership agreement restricts the remedies available to holders of our common units for actions taken by our general partner that might otherwise constitute breaches of fiduciary duty; |
• | holders of our common units have limited voting rights and are not entitled to elect our general partner or its directors; |
• | our tax treatment depends on our status as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as well as our not being subject to a material amount of entity level taxation by individual states; |
• | changes at any time (including on a retroactive basis) in the tax treatment of publicly traded partnerships or an investment in our common units; |
• | our unitholders will be required to pay taxes on their share of our taxable income even if they do not receive any cash distributions from us; |
• | the effects of future litigation; and |
• | other factors discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. |
We caution you that the foregoing list of important factors may not contain all of the material factors that are important to you. In addition, in light of these risks and uncertainties, the matters referred to in the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q may not in fact occur. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on those statements.
Our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Form 10-Q. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT BARREL, PER BARREL, UNIT AND PER UNIT DATA)
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
PBF Logistics LP (“PBFX” or the “Partnership”) is a Delaware limited partnership formed in February 2013. PBF Logistics GP LLC (“PBF GP” or “our general partner”) serves as the general partner of PBFX. PBF GP is wholly-owned by PBF Energy Company LLC (“PBF LLC”). PBF Energy Inc. (“PBF Energy”) is the sole managing member of PBF LLC and as of September 30, 2015 owned 94.4% of the total economic interest in PBF LLC. In addition, PBF LLC is the sole managing member of PBF Holding Company LLC (“PBF Holding”), a Delaware limited liability company and affiliate of PBFX. On May 14, 2014, PBFX completed its initial public offering (the “Offering”) of 15,812,500 common units (including 2,062,500 common units issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option). PBF LLC holds a 53.7% limited partner interest in PBFX and owns all of PBFX’s incentive distribution rights (“IDR”), with the remaining 46.3% limited partner interest owned by public unitholders as of September 30, 2015.
PBFX engages in the receiving, handling and transferring of crude oil and the receipt, storage and delivery of crude oil, refined products and intermediates. The Partnership does not take ownership of or receive any payments based on the value of the crude oil or products that it handles and does not engage in the trading of any commodities. PBFX's assets are integral to the operations of PBF Energy's refineries located in Toledo, Ohio, Delaware City, Delaware and Paulsboro, New Jersey. Subsequent to the Offering, PBFX generates all of its revenues from transactions with PBF Holding.
In connection with the Offering, PBF LLC contributed the assets, liabilities and results of operations of certain crude oil terminaling assets to the Partnership. The assets were owned and operated by PBF Holding’s subsidiaries, Delaware City Refining Company LLC (“DCR”) and Toledo Refining Company LLC (“TRC”), and were contributed to the Partnership in connection with the Offering. PBF Holding, together with its subsidiaries, owns and operates three oil refineries and related facilities in North America. PBF Energy, through its ownership in PBF LLC, controls all of the business affairs of PBFX and PBF Holding.
PBFX's initial assets consisted of the Delaware City Rail Unloading Terminal (“DCR Rail Terminal”), which was part of PBF Holding’s Delaware City, Delaware refinery, and the Toledo Truck Unloading Terminal (“Toledo Truck Terminal”), which was part of PBF Holding’s Toledo, Ohio refinery, which together with the DCR Rail Terminal, we refer to as the "IPO Assets". In connection with the Offering, the IPO Assets were distributed from PBF Holding to PBF LLC. The DCR Rail Terminal consists of a double loop track and ancillary pumping and unloading equipment. Construction of the DCR Rail Terminal began in July 2012 and it commenced operations in February 2013. The Toledo Truck Terminal commenced operations in December 2012 with one lease automatic custody transfer (“LACT”) unit. Two additional LACT units were made operational in May 2013. In July 2013, a fourth LACT unit was purchased that had previously been owned and operated at the Toledo Truck Terminal by a vendor in connection with a crude oil supply agreement. Two additional LACT units were placed into service in June 2014. The IPO Assets, along with the LACT units placed into service in June 2014, operate within the totality of the Toledo refinery and adjacent to the Delaware City refinery. The IPO Assets did not generate third party or affiliate revenue prior to the Offering. However, subsequent to the Offering, both of the IPO Assets have generated affiliate revenue.
On September 30, 2014, the Partnership acquired from PBF LLC the Delaware City West Heavy Unloading Rack (the “DCR West Rack”), a heavy crude oil rail unloading facility at the Delaware City refinery with total throughput capacity of at least 40,000 barrels per day (“bpd”). In addition, on December 11, 2014, the Partnership acquired from PBF LLC a tank farm and related facilities located at PBF Energy's Toledo refinery, including a propane storage and loading facility (the “Toledo Storage Facility”). Furthermore, on May 14, 2015, the Partnership acquired from PBF LLC a 23.4 mile, 16-inch interstate petroleum products pipeline with capacity in excess of 125,000 bpd (the “Delaware City Products Pipeline”) and a 15-lane, 76,000 bpd capacity truck loading rack (the “Delaware City Truck Rack”) located at PBF Holding's Delaware City, Delaware refinery. The Delaware City Products Pipeline and the Delaware City Truck Rack are collectively referred to as the “Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack.” These transactions are collectively referred to as “Acquisitions from PBF.” Subsequent to the Acquisitions from PBF, the DCR Rail Terminal, the Toledo Truck Terminal, the DCR West Rack, the Toledo

Storage Facility and the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack are collectively referred to as the “Contributed Assets.”
The Acquisitions from PBF were transfers of assets between entities under common control. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements and related notes of PBF MLP Predecessor (the “Predecessor”), our predecessor for accounting purposes, and the Partnership have been retrospectively adjusted to include the historical results of the DCR West Rack, the Toledo Storage Facility and the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack for all periods presented prior to the effective date of each transaction. The financial statements of our Predecessor, the DCR West Rack, the Toledo Storage Facility and the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack have been prepared from the separate records maintained by subsidiaries of PBF Energy and may not necessarily be indicative of the conditions that would have existed or the results of operations if they were operated as an unaffiliated company. Portions of certain expenses represent allocations made from corporate expenses applicable to PBF Energy as a whole. See Note 2 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for further discussion.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, PBFX has included all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows of PBFX and the Predecessor, as applicable, for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
The financial statements presented in this Form 10-Q include the condensed consolidated financial results of the Predecessor for the period presented prior to May 13, 2014, and the condensed consolidated financial results of PBFX for the period beginning May 14, 2014, the completion date of the Offering. The Predecessor did not historically operate its respective assets for the purpose of generating revenues independent of other PBF Energy businesses prior to the Offering or for assets acquired in the Acquisitions from PBF, with the exception of the Delaware City Products Pipeline, prior to the effective dates of each transaction. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU 2015-03”), which requires debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability rather than as an asset. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. The Partnership is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-06, “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260): Effects on Historical Earnings per Unit of Master Limited Partnership Dropdown Transactions” (“ASU 2015-06”), which specifies that for purposes of calculating historical earnings per unit under the two-class method, the earnings (losses) of a transferred business before the date of a dropdown transaction should be allocated entirely to the general partner. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. The Partnership believes that its current methodology for calculating earnings per unit is in compliance with the requirements of ASU 2015-06, but will continue to evaluate whether the adoption will have any impact on its consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date” (“ASU 2015-14”), which defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2014-09”) for all entities by one year. The guidance in ASU 2014-09 will replace

most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective. Under ASU 2015-14, this guidance becomes effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Under ASU 2015-14, early adoption is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Partnership continues to evaluate the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
2. ACQUISITIONS
During 2014, following the Offering, PBFX completed two acquisitions from PBF LLC, pursuant to which PBFX acquired from PBF LLC the following assets:
• | the DCR West Rack, which consists of a heavy crude oil rail unloading facility at the Delaware City refinery with total throughput capacity of at least 40,000 bpd (the “DCR West Rack Acquisition”); and |
• | the Toledo Storage Facility, which consists of a tank farm and related facilities, including a propane storage and loading facility, located at PBF Energy's Toledo refinery (the “Toledo Storage Acquisition”). |
See the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 of PBF Logistics LP and our annual audited financial statements included in a Form 8-K filed with the SEC on September 2, 2015, which retrospectively adjusts our historical financial statements to include the activities of the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack, for additional information regarding the 2014 acquisitions from PBF LLC and the commercial agreements executed in connection with these acquisitions.
On May 5, 2015, the Partnership entered into a contribution agreement between the Partnership and PBF LLC (the “Contribution Agreement”). Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, PBF LLC contributed to the Partnership all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company interests of Delaware Pipeline Company LLC (“DPC”) and Delaware City Logistics Company LLC (“DCLC”), whose assets collectively consist of the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack, for total consideration to PBF LLC of $143,000, consisting of $112,500 of cash and $30,500 of Partnership common units, or 1,288,420 common units (the “Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack Acquisition”). The cash consideration was funded by the Partnership with $88,000 in proceeds from the Partnership’s 6.875% Senior Notes due 2023, sale of approximately $700 in marketable securities and $23,800 in borrowings under the Partnership’s Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Note 4). The Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack Acquisition closed on May 14, 2015. The Partnership borrowed an additional $700 under its Revolving Credit Facility to repay $700 of its Term Loan (as defined in Note 4) in order to release the $700 in marketable securities that had collateralized the Term Loan.
The Delaware City Products Pipeline consists of a 23.4 mile, 16-inch interstate petroleum products pipeline with in excess of 125,000 bpd of capacity located at PBF Holding's Delaware City, Delaware refinery. The pipeline transports refined petroleum products from the Delaware City refinery to Sunoco Logistics Partners, L.P.’s (“Sunoco Logistics”) Twin Oaks pump station at Delaware County, Pennsylvania, with connections to Buckeye Partners, L.P.’s Laurel pipeline and Sunoco Logistics’ northeast pipeline systems that serve Western Pennsylvania and New York. The Delaware City Truck Rack consists of a 15-lane, 76,000 bpd capacity truck loading rack utilized to distribute gasoline and distillates.
Total transaction costs of approximately $530 associated with the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack Acquisition were expensed as incurred and included in general and administrative expense in the Partnership's condensed consolidated statements of operations. In connection with such acquisition, the Partnership entered into two commercial agreements with PBF Holding and amended and restated each of the omnibus agreement and the operational services agreement with PBF Holding. See Note 9—Related Party Transactions, for a summary of the terms of these agreements.
As the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack Acquisition was considered a transfer of businesses between entities under common control, the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack was transferred at
11
PBF LOGISTICS LP
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT BARREL, PER BARREL, UNIT AND PER UNIT DATA)
its historical carrying value, which was $15,975 as of May 14, 2015. The historical financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows of the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack as if it was owned by the Partnership for all periods presented. Net income attributable to the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack prior to the effective date was allocated entirely to PBF GP as if only PBF GP had rights to that net income; therefore, there is no retrospective adjustment to net income per unit.
The following tables present the Partnership's statement of financial position and results of operations after giving effect to the Acquisitions from PBF for the periods prior to the effective dates of the transactions. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the consolidated results of the DCR West Rack prior to the DCR West Rack Acquisition are included under “DCR West Rack,” the consolidated results of the Toledo Storage Facility prior to the Toledo Storage Acquisition are included under “Toledo Storage Facility,” and the consolidated results of the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack prior to the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack Acquisition are included under “Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack.” The previously reported consolidated results of the DCR Rail Terminal, the Toledo Truck Rack, the DCR West Rack, the Toledo Storage Facility and the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack subsequent to each acquisition are included in “PBF Logistics LP.”

4. DEBT
On May 14, 2014, in connection with the closing of the Offering, the Partnership entered into agreements for a five-year, $275,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and a three-year, $300,000 term loan facility (the “Term Loan”), each with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders. The Partnership has the ability to increase the maximum amount of the Revolving Credit Facility up to a total facility size of $600,000, subject to receiving increased commitments from lenders or other financial institutions and satisfaction of certain conditions. The Revolving Credit Facility was increased from $275,000 to $325,000 in December 2014, which means the Partnership has the further ability
15
PBF LOGISTICS LP
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT BARREL, PER BARREL, UNIT AND PER UNIT DATA)
to increase the maximum amount of the Revolving Credit Facility by an aggregate amount of up to $275,000, to a total facility size of $600,000, subject to receiving increased commitments from lenders or other financial institutions and satisfaction of certain conditions.
The Revolving Credit Facility is available to fund working capital, acquisitions, distributions and capital expenditures and for other general partnership purposes. The Revolving Credit Facility includes a $25,000 sublimit for standby letters of credit and for swingline loans. Obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility and certain cash management and hedging obligations designated by the Partnership are guaranteed by its restricted subsidiaries, and are secured by a first priority lien on the Partnership’s assets (including the Partnership’s equity interests in its restricted subsidiaries) and the assets of the Partnership’s restricted subsidiaries other than excluded assets (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) and a guaranty of collection from PBF LLC. The maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility may be extended for one year on up to two occasions, subject to certain customary terms and conditions. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at either a Base Rate (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.75% to 1.75%, or at LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.75%. The applicable margin will vary based upon the Partnership’s Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility.
The Term Loan was used to fund distributions to PBF LLC and is guaranteed by a guaranty of collection from PBF LLC and secured at all times by cash or U.S. Treasury securities in an amount equal to or greater than the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan. Borrowings under the Term Loan bear interest either at Base Rate (as defined in the Term Loan), or at LIBOR plus an applicable margin equal to 0.25%.
At September 30, 2015, PBFX had $24,500 of secured indebtedness and $2,000 of letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility and $234,200 outstanding under the Term Loan. Both the Revolving Credit Agreement and Term Loan contain covenants that limit or restrict the Partnership's ability to make cash distributions. The Partnership is required to maintain certain financial ratios, each tested on a quarterly basis for the immediately preceding four quarter period.
Senior Notes
On May 12, 2015, the Partnership entered into an Indenture (the “Indenture”) among the Partnership, PBF Logistics Finance Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership (“PBF Finance,” and together with the Partnership, the “Issuers”), the Guarantors (as defined below) and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Trustee, under which the Issuers issued $350,000 in aggregate principal amount of 6.875% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “2023 Notes”). The initial purchasers in the offering purchased $330,090 aggregate principal amount of 2023 Notes pursuant to a private placement transaction conducted under Rule 144A and Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and certain of PBF Energy’s officers and directors and their affiliates and family members purchased the remaining $19,910 aggregate principal amount of 2023 Notes in a separate private placement transaction. The Issuers received net proceeds of approximately $343,000 from the offering after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and estimated offering expenses, and used such proceeds to pay $88,000 of the cash consideration due in connection with the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack Acquisition and to repay $255,000 of outstanding indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Facility.
The 2023 Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Delaware City Terminaling, Toledo Terminaling Company LLC (“Toledo Terminaling”), DPC and DCLC (collectively, the "Guarantors" and each a “Guarantor”). In addition, PBF LLC agreed to a limited guarantee of collection of the principal amount of the 2023 Notes, but is not otherwise subject to the covenants of the Indenture. The 2023 Notes are general senior unsecured obligations of the Issuers and are equal in right of payment with all of the Issuers’ existing and future senior indebtedness, including amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan. The 2023 Notes will be senior to any future subordinated indebtedness the Issuers may incur. The 2023 Notes are effectively subordinated to all of the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ existing and future secured debt, including the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan, to the extent of the value of the assets securing that secured debt and will be structurally subordinated to all indebtedness of the Partnership’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 2023 Notes. The Partnership will pay
16
PBF LOGISTICS LP
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT BARREL, PER BARREL, UNIT AND PER UNIT DATA)
interest on the 2023 Notes semi-annually in cash in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2015. The 2023 Notes will mature on May 15, 2023.
The Indenture contains customary terms, events of default and covenants for an issuer of non-investment grade debt securities. These covenants include limitations on the Partnership’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things: (i) make investments, (ii) incur additional indebtedness or issue preferred units, (iii) pay dividends or make distributions on units or redeem or repurchase our subordinated debt, (iv) create liens, (v) incur dividend or other payment restrictions affecting subsidiaries, (vi) sell assets, (vii) merge or consolidate with other entities and (viii) enter into transactions with affiliates. These covenants are subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions.
At any time prior to May 15, 2018, the Issuers may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes in an amount not greater than the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 106.875% of the principal amount of the 2023 Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. On or after May 15, 2018, the Issuers may redeem all or part of the 2023 Notes, in each case at the redemption prices described in the Indenture, together with any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. In addition, prior to May 15, 2018, the Issuers may redeem all or part of the 2023 Notes at a “make-whole” redemption price described in the Indenture, together with any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. If the Partnership undergoes certain change of control events, holders of the 2023 Notes will have the right to require the Issuers to purchase all or any part of the 2023 Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes, together with any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase. In connection with certain asset dispositions, the Issuers will be required to use the net cash proceeds of the asset dispositions (subject to a right to reinvest such net cash proceeds) to make an offer to purchase the 2023 Notes at 100% of the principal amount, together with any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase.
The Issuers may issue additional 2023 Notes from time to time pursuant to the Indenture.
Fair Value Measurement
A fair value hierarchy (Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3) is used to categorize fair value amounts based on the quality of inputs used to measure fair value. Accordingly, fair values derived from Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Fair values derived from Level 2 inputs are based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.
Debt or equity securities are classified into the following reporting categories: held-to-maturity, trading or available-for-sale securities. While PBFX does not routinely sell marketable securities prior to their scheduled maturity dates, some of PBFX's investments may be held and restricted for the purpose of funding future capital expenditures and acquisitions. Such investments are classified as available-for-sale marketable securities as they may occasionally be sold prior to their scheduled maturity dates due to the unexpected timing of cash needs. The carrying value of these marketable securities approximates fair value and is measured using Level 1 inputs. The terms of the marketable securities range from one to three months and are classified on the balance sheet as non-current assets. The gross unrecognized holding gains and losses as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were not material. As of September 30, 2015, these investments are used as collateral to secure the Term Loan and are intended to be used only to fund future capital expenditures.
The estimated fair values of the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan approximate their carrying values, categorized as a Level 2 measurement, as these borrowings bear interest based upon short-term floating market interest rates. The estimated fair value of the 2023 Notes, categorized as a Level 2 measurement, was calculated based on the present value of future expected payments utilizing implied current market interest rates based on quoted prices of the 2023 Notes and was approximately $328,976 at September 30, 2015. The carrying value and
17
PBF LOGISTICS LP
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT BARREL, PER BARREL, UNIT AND PER UNIT DATA)
fair value of our debt was approximately $608,700 and $587,676 as of September 30, 2015 and $510,000 and $510,000 as of December 31, 2014, respectively. The carrying and fair values of our debt do not include the unamortized issuance costs associated with our total debt.
5. EQUITY
PBFX had 15,893,313 common units held by the public outstanding as of September 30, 2015. PBF Energy owns 2,572,944 of PBFX's common units and 15,886,553 of PBFX's subordinated units constituting an aggregate of 53.7% of PBFX's limited partner interest. In accordance with PBFX's partnership agreement, PBF Energy's subordinated units will convert into common units on a one-for-one basis once PBFX has met specified distribution targets and successfully completed other tests set forth in PBFX's partnership agreement.
Issuance of Additional Interests
PBFX's partnership agreement authorizes PBFX to issue an unlimited number of additional partnership interests for the consideration and on the terms and conditions determined by PBFX's general partner without the approval of the unitholders. In 2015, 85,757 of the Partnership's phantom units issued under the PBFX 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") vested into common units held by certain directors, officers and current and former employees of our general partner or its affiliates. In addition, on May 14, 2015, PBFX partially funded the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack Acquisition with $30,500 of Partnership common units, or 1,288,420 common units. It is possible that PBFX will fund future acquisitions through the issuance of additional common units, subordinated units or other partnership interests.
Holders of any additional common units PBFX issues will be entitled to share equally with the then-existing common unitholders in PBFX's distributions of available cash.
Equity Activity
The summarized changes in the carrying amount of our equity during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 are as follows:

Allocations of Net Income
PBFX's partnership agreement contains provisions for the allocation of net income and loss to the unitholders. For purposes of maintaining partner capital accounts, PBFX's partnership agreement specifies that items of income and loss shall be allocated among the partners in accordance with their respective percentage interest. Normal allocations according to percentage interests are made after giving effect, if any, to priority income allocations in an amount equal to incentive cash distributions allocated 100% to PBF LLC.
Cash distributions
PBFX's partnership agreement, as amended, sets forth the calculation to be used to determine the amount and priority of cash distributions that the common and subordinated unitholders and general partner will receive. On March 4, 2015, we paid a quarterly cash distribution, based on the results of the fourth quarter of 2014, totaling $10,885, or $0.33 per unit, to unitholders of record on February 23, 2015. On May 20, 2015, we paid a quarterly cash distribution, based on the results of the first quarter of 2015, totaling $12,026, or $0.35 per unit, to unitholders of record on May 15, 2015. On August 31, 2015, we paid a quarterly cash distribution, based on the results of the second quarter of 2015, totaling $12,861, or $0.37 per unit, to unitholders of record on August 15, 2015.
The allocation of total quarterly cash distributions to general and limited partners is as follows in the table below for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. The Partnership's distributions are declared subsequent to quarter end; therefore, the table represents total cash distributions applicable to the period in which the distributions are earned:

6. UNIT-BASED COMPENSATION
PBF GP's board of directors adopted the LTIP in connection with the completion of the Offering. The LTIP is for the benefit of employees, consultants, service providers and non-employee directors of the general partner and its affiliates.
In 2014 and 2015, PBFX issued phantom unit awards under the LTIP to certain directors, officers and employees of our general partner or its affiliates as compensation. The fair value of each phantom unit on the grant date is equal to the market price of PBFX's common units on that date. The estimated fair value of PBFX's phantom units is amortized over the vesting period of four years, using the straight-line method.
In 2015, upon retirement of certain of PBF GP's officers, phantom units held by these individuals accelerated vesting pursuant to the terms of their grant agreements.
Unit-based compensation expense related to the Partnership that was included in general and administrative expense in the Partnership's condensed consolidated statements of operations was $815 and $2,428, inclusive of $0 and $510 associated with the accelerated vesting of certain phantom units described above, for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2015.
7. NET INCOME PER UNIT
Net income per unit is calculated for the Partnership only for periods after the Offering as no units were outstanding prior to May 14, 2014. Earnings in excess of distributions are allocated to the limited partners based on their respective ownership interests. Payments made to PBFX's unitholders are determined in relation to actual distributions declared and are not based on the net income (loss) allocations used in the calculation of net income (loss) per unit.
Diluted net income per unit includes the effects of potentially dilutive units of PBFX's common units that consist of unvested phantom units. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 there were 454,625 anti-dilutive phantom units. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 there were 0 and 279,000 anti-dilutive phantom units, respectively. Basic and diluted net income per unit applicable to subordinated limited partners are the same because there are no potentially dilutive subordinated units outstanding.
In addition to the common and subordinated units, PBFX has also identified the general partner interest and incentive distribution rights as participating securities and uses the two-class method when calculating the net income per unit applicable to limited partners that is based on the weighted-average number of common units outstanding during the period. The Partnership issued 1,210,471 additional common units in 2014 and 1,288,420 in 2015 to PBF LLC in conjunction with the Acquisitions from PBF.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The DCR Rail Terminal and the DCR West Rack are collocated with the Delaware City refinery, and are located in Delaware’s coastal zone where certain activities are regulated under the Delaware Coastal Zone Act. On June 14, 2013, two administrative appeals were filed by the Sierra Club and Delaware Audubon (collectively, the “Appellants”) regarding an air permit DCR obtained to allow loading of crude oil onto barges. The appeals allege that both the loading of crude oil onto barges and the operation of the DCR Rail Terminal violate the Delaware Coastal Zone Act. The first appeal is Number 2013-1 before the State Coastal Zone Industrial Control Board (the “CZ Board”), and the second appeal is before the Environmental Appeals Board (“EAB”) and appeals Secretary’s Order No. 2013-A-0020. The CZ Board held a hearing on the first appeal on July 16, 2013, and ruled in favor of DCR and the State of Delaware and dismissed the Appellants’ appeal for lack of standing. Sierra Club and Delaware Audubon appealed that decision to the Delaware Superior Court, New Castle County, Case No. N13A-09-001 ALR, and DCR and the State of Delaware filed cross-appeals. A hearing on the second appeal before the EAB, case no. 2013-06, was held on January 13, 2014, and the EAB ruled in favor of DCR and the State of Delaware and dismissed the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. The Appellants also filed a Notice of Appeal with the Superior Court appealing the EAB’s decision. On March 31, 2015 the Superior Court affirmed the decisions by both the CZ Board and the EAB stating they both lacked jurisdiction to rule on the Appellants’ appeals. The Appellants appealed to the Delaware Supreme Court, and, on November 5, 2015, the Supreme Court affirmed the Superior Court decision.
Environmental Matters
PBFX’s assets, along with PBF Energy’s refineries, are subject to extensive and frequently changing federal, state and local laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, those relating to the discharge of materials into the environment or that otherwise relate to the protection of the environment, waste management and the characteristics and the composition of fuels. Compliance with existing and anticipated laws and regulations can increase the overall cost of operating the Partnership’s assets, including remediation, operating costs and capital costs to construct, maintain and upgrade equipment and facilities.

In connection with PBF Holding’s acquisition of the DCR assets, Valero Energy Corporation (“Valero”) remains responsible for certain pre-acquisition environmental obligations up to $20,000 and the predecessor to Valero in ownership of the refinery retains other historical obligations.
In connection with its acquisition of the DCR assets and the Paulsboro refinery, PBF Holding and Valero purchased ten year, $75,000 environmental insurance policies to insure against unknown environmental liabilities at each site. In connection with PBF Energy's Toledo refinery acquisition, Sunoco Inc. (R&M) remains responsible for environmental remediation for conditions that existed on the closing date for twenty years from March 1, 2011, subject to certain limitations.
9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Commercial Agreements
PBFX currently derives all of its revenue from long-term, fee-based agreements with PBF Holding, supported by fee escalations for inflation adjustments and certain increases in operating costs. PBFX believes the terms and conditions under these agreements, as well as the omnibus and services agreements with PBF Holding described below, are generally no less favorable to either party than those that could have been negotiated with unaffiliated parties with respect to similar services.
2014 Commercial Agreements
The commercial agreements entered into during the year ended December 31, 2014 with PBF Holding have initial terms ranging from approximately seven to ten years and include:
•a rail terminaling services agreement with PBF Holding, with an initial term of approximately seven years, under which the Partnership provides terminaling services at the DCR Rail Terminal;
•a truck unloading and terminaling services agreement with PBF Holding, with an initial term of approximately seven years, under which the Partnership provides terminaling services at the Toledo Truck Terminal;
•a terminaling services agreement, with an initial term of approximately seven years, under which the Partnership provides rail terminaling services to PBF Holding at the DCR West Rack; and
•a storage and terminaling services agreement, with an initial term of ten years, under which the Partnership provides storage and terminaling services to PBF Holding at the Toledo Storage Facility.
Each of these commercial agreements contain minimum volume commitments. Additionally, the storage and terminaling services agreement contains minimum requirements for the amount of storage contracted by PBF Holding. The fees under each commercial agreement are indexed for inflation and the agreements give PBF Holding the option to renew for two additional five-year terms following the expiration of the initial term.
2015 Commercial Agreements
On May 15, 2015, PBF Holding and DPC entered into an approximately ten-year pipeline services agreement (the “Delaware Pipeline Services Agreement”) under which the Partnership, through DPC, will provide pipeline services to PBF Holding. PBF Holding also entered into an approximately ten-year terminaling services agreement with DCLC (the “Delaware Truck Loading Services Agreement”) under which the Partnership, through DCLC, will provide terminaling services to PBF Holding. The Delaware Pipeline Services Agreement and the Delaware Truck Loading Services Agreement (collectively, the “Delaware City Pipeline and Terminaling Agreements”) can be extended by PBF Holding for two additional five-year periods. Under the Delaware City Pipeline and Terminaling Agreements, the Partnership provides PBF Holding with pipeline and terminaling services in return for throughput fees.

PBF LOGISTICS LP
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT BARREL, PER BARREL, UNIT AND PER UNIT DATA)
The minimum throughput commitment for the Delaware City Products Pipeline is 50,000 bpd for a fee equal to $0.5266 per barrel of product throughput up to the minimum throughput commitment and in excess of the minimum throughput commitment. If PBF Holding does not throughput the aggregate amounts equal to the minimum throughput commitment described above, PBF Holding will be required to pay a shortfall payment equal to the shortfall volume multiplied by the fee. Effective July 2015, the throughput fee was raised to $0.5507 per barrel, due to an increase in the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") tariff. The minimum throughput commitment for the Delaware City Truck Rack is 30,000 bpd for refined clean products with a fee equal to $0.462 per barrel and 5,000 bpd for liquefied petroleum gas ("LPG") with a fee equal to $2.52 per barrel of product loaded up to the minimum throughput commitment and for volumes in excess of the minimum throughput commitment. If PBF Holding does not throughput the aggregate amounts equal to the minimum throughput commitment described above, PBF Holding will be required to pay a shortfall payment equal to the shortfall volume multiplied by the applicable fee.
The Partnership is required to maintain the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack in a condition and with a capacity sufficient to handle a volume of PBF Holding’s products at least equal to their current operating capacity as a whole subject to interruptions for routine repairs and maintenance and force majeure events. Failure to meet such obligations may result in a reduction of fees payable under the Delaware City Pipeline and Terminaling Agreements.
Other Agreements
In addition to the commercial agreements described above, the Partnership also entered into an omnibus agreement with PBF GP, PBF LLC and PBF Holding, which addresses the payment of an annual fee, in the amount of $2,350 per year, for the provision of various general and administrative services, among other matters, and an operations and management services and secondment agreement with PBF Holding and certain of its subsidiaries under which PBFX reimburses PBF Holding for the provision of certain operational services to the Partnership in support of its operations, including operational services performed by certain of PBF Holding's field-level employees. The omnibus agreement and operations and management services and secondment agreement were amended on May 15, 2015 to include the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack.
Predecessor Transactions
Related-party transactions of the Predecessor were settled through division equity.

10. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Partnership's operations are organized into two reportable segments, Transportation and Terminaling; and Storage. Operations that are not included in the Transportation and Terminaling and Storage segments are included in Corporate. Intersegment transactions are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements and are included in Eliminations.
Prior to the acquisition of the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack, the Transportation and Terminaling segment was referred to as the Terminaling segment.
Our Transportation and Terminaling segment consists of the following assets:
•the DCR Rail Terminal, which serves PBF Energy’s Delaware City and Paulsboro refineries and has an unloading capacity of 130,000 bpd;
•the DCR West Rack, which serves PBF Energy’s Delaware City refinery with total throughput capacity of at least 40,000 bpd;
•the Toledo Truck Terminal, which serves PBF Energy’s Toledo refinery, comprised of six LACT units and has unloading capacity of 22,500 bpd;
•a propane truck loading facility, located within the Toledo Storage Facility, which is part of PBF Energy's Toledo, Ohio refinery, with a throughput capacity of approximately 11,000 bpd;
•the Delaware City Products Pipeline, which consists of a 23.4 mile, 16-inch interstate petroleum products pipeline with capacity in excess of 125,000 bpd located at PBF Energy's Delaware City refinery; and
•the Delaware City Truck Rack, which consists of a 15-lane, 76,000 bpd capacity truck loading rack utilized to distribute gasoline, distillates and LPGs located at PBF Energy's Delaware City refinery.
Our Storage segment consists of the following asset:
•the Toledo Storage Facility, excluding the propane truck loading facility, which services the Toledo refinery and consists of 30 tanks for storing crude oil, refined products and intermediates. The aggregate capacity of the Toledo Storage Facility is approximately 3.9 million barrels, of which 1.3 million barrels are dedicated to crude oil storage and 2.6 million barrels are allocated to refined products and intermediates.
Revenues are generated from commercial agreements entered into with PBF Holding under which PBF Holding pays the Partnership fees for transportation, terminaling and storage of crude oil and refined products. The commercial agreements with PBF Holding are described in Note 9 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q. The Partnership does not have any foreign operations.
The operating segments adhere to the accounting polices used for the consolidated financial statements, as described in Note 2 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in a Form 8-K filed with the SEC on September 2, 2015, which retrospectively adjusts our historical financial statements to include the activities of the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack. The Partnership's operating segments are strategic business units that offer different services in different geographical locations. PBFX has evaluated the performance of each operating segment based on its respective operating income. Certain general and administrative expenses and interest and financing costs are included in Corporate as they are not directly attributable to a specific operating segment. Identifiable assets are those used by the operating segment, whereas assets included in Corporate are principally cash, deposits and other assets that are not associated with a specific operating segment.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. The following information and such unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should also be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes, together with our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations included in a Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on September 2, 2015, which retrospectively adjusted our 2014 Form 10-K to give retrospective effect to the acquisition of the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are based on management’s current expectations, estimates and projections about our business and operations. The cautionary statements made in this report should be read as applying to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this report. Our actual results may differ materially from those currently anticipated and expressed in such forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors. You should read “Risk Factors” in our 2014 Form 10-K and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this Form 10-Q. In this Item 2, all references to “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Partnership,” “PBFX” or similar terms for periods prior to the Offering refer to the Predecessor or for assets acquired in the Acquisitions from PBF prior to the effective date of each acquisition. For periods subsequent to the Offering or effective date of each Acquisition from PBF, these terms refer to the Partnership and its subsidiaries.
Overview
PBFX is a fee-based, growth-oriented, Delaware master limited partnership formed in February 2013 by subsidiaries of PBF Energy to own or lease, operate, develop and acquire crude oil and refined petroleum products terminals, pipelines, storage facilities and similar logistics assets. On May 14, 2014, PBFX completed the offering of 15,812,500 common units (including 2,062,500 common units issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option) (the "Offering"). PBFX filed a registration statement on Form S-1, with respect to the Offering, with the SEC, which was declared effective on May 8, 2014. On May 9, 2014, PBFX’s common units began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “PBFX”. PBF GP is our general partner and is wholly-owned by PBF LLC. PBF Energy is the sole managing member of PBF LLC and as of September 30, 2015 owned 94.4% of the total economic interest in PBF LLC. PBF LLC holds a 53.7% limited partner interest in PBFX and owns all of PBFX’s incentive distribution rights, with the remaining 46.3% limited partner interest owned by public unit holders as of September 30, 2015.
The Partnership includes the assets, liabilities and results of operations of certain crude oil and refined product terminaling, pipeline, and storage assets, previously operated and owned by PBF Holding's subsidiaries, Delaware City Refining Company LLC (“DCR”), Toledo Refining Company LLC (“TRC”) and PBF Holding's previously held subsidiary, Delaware Pipeline Company (“DPC”), which were acquired in a series of transactions during 2014 and 2015.
In connection with the Offering, pursuant to a contribution agreement and conveyance agreement, PBF LLC contributed a light crude oil rail unloading terminal at the Delaware City refinery that can also service the Paulsboro refinery (which we refer to as the “DCR Rail Terminal”) and a crude oil truck unloading terminal at the Toledo refinery (which we refer to as the “Toledo Truck Terminal”). Prior to completion of the Offering, the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the aforementioned assets related to our Predecessor.
On September 30, 2014, the Partnership acquired from PBF LLC the DCR West Rack, a heavy crude oil rail unloading facility (also, capable of unloading light crude oil) at the Delaware City refinery with total throughput capacity of at least 40,000 barrels per day (“bpd”). Also, on December 11, 2014, the Partnership acquired from PBF LLC the Toledo Storage Facility, a tank farm and related facilities located at PBF Energy's Toledo refinery, including a propane storage and loading facility. In addition, on May 14, 2015, the Partnership acquired from PBF LLC the Delaware City Products Pipeline, a 23.4 mile, 16-inch interstate petroleum products pipeline with capacity in excess of 125,000 bpd and the Delaware City Truck Rack, a 15-lane, 76,000 bpd capacity truck loading rack located at PBF Holding's Delaware City, Delaware refinery. The Delaware City Products Pipeline and Delaware
38
City Truck Rack are collectively referred to as the “Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack.” The transactions entered into after the Offering are collectively referred to as "Acquisition from PBF."
The condensed consolidated financial statements presented in this Form 10-Q include the consolidated financial results of our Predecessor, for periods presented through May 13, 2014, and the consolidated financial results of PBFX for the period beginning May 14, 2014, the date of the completion of the Offering. The balance sheet as of September 30, 2015 presents solely the consolidated financial position of PBFX. We recorded the Acquisitions from PBF at PBF Energy's historical book value, as the Acquisitions from PBF were treated as a reorganization of entities under common control. We have retrospectively adjusted the financial information of the Predecessor and PBFX contained herein to include the historical results of the DCR West Rack, Toledo Storage Facility and the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack prior to the effective date of each transaction.
Our Predecessor did not historically operate its assets for the purpose of generating revenues independent of other PBF Energy businesses that we support. Upon closing of the Offering and the Acquisitions from PBF, we entered into commercial and service agreements with subsidiaries of PBF Energy under which we operate our assets for the purpose of generating fee-based revenues. We receive, handle and transfer crude oil and refined products from sources located throughout the United States and Canada and store crude oil, refined products and intermediates for PBF Energy in support of its refineries located in Toledo, Ohio, Delaware City, Delaware and Paulsboro, New Jersey. Our assets consist of the DCR Rail Terminal, the Toledo Truck Terminal, the DCR West Rack, the Toledo Storage Facility and the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack (collectively referred to as the “Contributed Assets”), which are integral components of the crude oil and refined products delivery and storage operations at PBF Energy’s refineries.
Agreements with PBF Energy
Commercial Agreements
The Partnership has various long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with PBF Holding under which PBFX provides rail, trucking, pipeline, terminal distribution and storage services to PBF Holding, and PBF Holding commits to provide the Partnership with minimum monthly throughput volumes of crude oil and refined products. If, in any calendar quarter, PBF Holding fails to meet its minimum volume commitments under these agreements, it will be required to pay a shortfall payment. The Partnership believes the terms and conditions under these agreements, as well as other agreements with PBF Holding described below, are generally no less favorable to either party than those that could have been negotiated with unaffiliated parties with respect to similar services.
2014 Commercial Agreements
The commercial agreements entered into during the year ended December 31, 2014 with PBF Holding have initial terms ranging from approximately seven to ten years and include:
•a rail terminaling services agreement with PBF Holding, with an initial term of approximately seven years, under which the Partnership provides terminaling services at the DCR Rail Terminal;
•a truck unloading and terminaling services agreement with PBF Holding, with an initial term of approximately seven years, under which the Partnership provides terminaling services at the Toledo Truck Terminal;
•a terminaling services agreement, with an initial term of approximately seven years, under which the Partnership provides rail terminaling services to PBF Holding at the DCR West Rack; and
•a storage and terminaling services agreement, with an initial term of ten years, under which the Partnership provides storage and terminaling services to PBF Holding at the Toledo Storage Facility.
Each of these commercial agreements contain minimum volume commitments. Additionally, the storage and terminaling services agreement contains minimum requirements for the amount of storage contracted by PBF
39
Holding. The fees under each commercial agreement are indexed for inflation and the agreements give PBF Holding the option to renew for two additional five-year terms following the expiration of the initial term.
2015 Commercial Agreements
On May 15, 2015, in connection with the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack Acquisition, PBF Holding and DPC entered into an approximately ten-year pipeline services agreement (the “Delaware Pipeline Services Agreement”) under which the Partnership, through DPC, will provide pipeline services to PBF Holding. PBF Holding also entered into an approximately ten-year terminaling services agreement with Delaware City Logistics Company LLC (“DCLC”) (the “Delaware Truck Loading Services Agreement”) under which the Partnership, through DCLC, will provide terminaling services to PBF Holding. The Delaware Pipeline Services Agreement and Delaware Truck Loading Services Agreement (collectively, the “Delaware City Pipeline and Terminaling Agreements”) can be extended by PBF Holding for two additional five-year periods. Under the Delaware City Pipeline and Terminaling Agreements, the Partnership will provide PBF Holding with pipeline and terminaling services in return for throughput fees.
The minimum throughput commitment for the Delaware City Products Pipeline will be 50,000 bpd for a fee equal to $0.5266 per barrel of product throughput up to the minimum throughput commitment and in excess of the minimum throughput commitment. If PBF Holding does not throughput the aggregate amounts equal to the minimum throughput commitment described above, PBF Holding will be required to pay a shortfall payment equal to the shortfall volume multiplied by the fee. Effective July 2015, the throughput fee was raised to $0.5507 per barrel, due to an increase in the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") tariff. The minimum throughput commitment for the Delaware City Truck Rack will be 30,000 bpd for refined clean products with a fee equal to $0.462 per barrel and 5,000 bpd for LPGs with a fee equal to $2.52 per barrel of product loaded up to the minimum throughput commitment and for volumes in excess of the minimum throughput commitment. If PBF Holding does not throughput the aggregate amounts equal to the minimum throughput commitment described above, PBF Holding will be required to pay a shortfall payment equal to the shortfall volume multiplied by the applicable fee.
The Partnership is required to maintain the assets acquired in the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack Acquisition in a condition and with a capacity sufficient to handle a volume of PBF Holding’s products at least equal to their current operating capacity as a whole subject to interruptions for routine repairs and maintenance and force majeure events. Failure to meet such obligations may result in a reduction of fees payable under the Delaware City Pipeline and Terminaling Agreements.
Other Agreements
In addition to the commercial agreements described above, the Partnership also entered into an omnibus agreement with PBF GP, PBF LLC and PBF Holding, which addresses the payment of an annual fee, in the amount of $2.35 million per year, for the provision of various general and administrative services, among other matters, and an operations and management services and secondment agreement with PBF Holding and certain of its subsidiaries under which PBFX reimburses PBF Holding for the provision of certain operational services to the Partnership in support of its operations, including operational services performed by certain of PBF Holding's field-level employees. The omnibus agreement and operations and management services and secondment agreement were amended on May 15, 2015 to include the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack.
Factors Affecting the Comparability of Our Financial Results
Our future results of operations may not be comparable to our historical results of operations for the reasons described below:
Revenues. There are differences in the way our Predecessor historically reported revenues for services provided to PBF Energy and the way we record revenues subsequent to the closing of the Offering and effective dates of the Acquisitions from PBF. Our assets have historically been a part of the integrated operations of PBF Energy, and the operation of our assets did not generate third-party or inter-entity revenue, with the exception of
40
the Delaware City Products Pipeline. Prior to August 2013, DPC generated third party revenue by charging fees for transporting refined products pursuant to an agreement with Morgan Stanley Capital Group. Upon termination of this contract, only inter-entity revenue from DCR was recognized.
Following the closing of the Offering and effective dates of the Acquisitions from PBF, revenues are generated from the commercial agreements that we entered into with PBF Holding under which we receive revenues for logistics services. These contracts contain minimum volume commitments and fees that are indexed for inflation.
General and Administrative Expenses. Historically, our general and administrative expenses included direct monthly charges for the management and operation of our logistics assets and certain expenses allocated by PBF Energy for general corporate services, such as treasury, accounting and legal services. These expenses were allocated to us based on the nature of the expenses and our proportionate share of employee time and headcount. Following an increase in the annual fee payable under the omnibus agreement described above, PBF Energy charges us an annual fee of $2.35 million for the provision of various centralized administrative services. Additionally, we reimburse our general partner and its affiliates, including subsidiaries of PBF Energy, for the salaries and benefits costs of employees who devote more than 50% of their time to us, which we currently estimate will be approximately $2.5 million annually. We also expect to incur $4.5 million of incremental annual general and administrative expense as a result of being a publicly traded partnership.
Financing. We have made, and intend to make, cash distributions to our unitholders at a minimum distribution rate of $0.30 per unit per quarter ($1.20 per unit on an annualized basis). As a result, we expect to fund future capital expenditures primarily from the sale of U.S. Treasury or other investment grade securities used as collateral to secure obligations under our three-year, $300.0 million term loan facility (the “Term Loan”), external sources including borrowings under our five-year, $325.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), and issuances of equity and debt securities. In connection with the closing of the Offering, we entered into the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan. On May 12, 2015, the Partnership and its wholly-owned subsidiary, PBF Logistics Finance Corporation, closed on $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.875% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “2023 Notes”). We received net proceeds from the 2023 Notes offering of approximately $343.0 million, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and estimated offering expenses. We used the net proceeds to pay $88.0 million of the cash consideration payable by us in the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack Acquisition and to repay $255.0 million of the outstanding indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Facility. We also used $20.1 million of cash on hand to pay down the Revolving Credit Facility prior to the completion of the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack Acquisition. In addition, in connection with the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack Acquisition, we reborrowed $24.5 million under the Revolving Credit Facility to pay the remaining portion of the cash consideration and related transaction costs. At September 30, 2015, we had $24.5 million outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, $234.2 million outstanding under the Term Loan and $350.0 million outstanding under the 2023 Notes.
Other Factors That Will Significantly Affect Our Results
Supply and Demand for Crude Oil and Refined Products. We generate revenue by charging fees for receiving, handling, transferring, storing and throughputting crude oil and refined products. All of our revenues are derived from fee-based commercial agreements with subsidiaries of PBF Energy with initial terms ranging from approximately seven to ten years and including minimum volume commitments, which enhances the stability of our cash flows. The volume of crude oil and refined products that is throughputted depends substantially on PBF Energy’s refining margins. Refining margins are dependent mostly upon the price of crude oil or other refinery feedstocks and the price of refined products.
Factors driving the prices of petroleum based commodities include supply and demand in crude oil, gasoline and other refined products. Supply and demand for these products depend on numerous factors outside of our control, including changes in domestic and foreign economies, weather conditions, domestic and foreign political affairs, production levels, logistics constraints, availability of imports, marketing of competitive fuels, crude oil price differentials and government regulation. Please read “Risk Factors” in our 2014 Form 10-K.
41
Acquisition Opportunities. We may acquire additional logistics assets from PBF Energy or third parties. Under our omnibus agreement with PBF GP, PBF LLC and PBF Holding, subject to certain exceptions, we have a right of first offer on certain logistics assets owned by PBF Energy to the extent PBF Energy decides to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of those assets. We also have a right of first offer to acquire additional logistics assets that PBF Energy may construct or acquire in the future. Our commercial agreements provide us with options to purchase certain assets at PBF Energy’s Delaware City and Toledo refineries related to our business in the event PBF Energy permanently shuts down either the Delaware City refinery or the Toledo refinery. In addition, our commercial agreements provide us with the right to use certain assets at PBF Energy’s Delaware City or Toledo refineries in the event of a temporary shutdown. Furthermore, we may pursue strategic asset acquisitions from third parties to the extent such acquisitions complement our or PBF Energy’s existing asset base or provide attractive potential returns. We believe that we are well-positioned to acquire logistics assets from PBF Energy and third parties should such opportunities arise, and identifying and executing acquisitions is a key part of our strategy. However, if we do not make acquisitions on economically acceptable terms, our future growth will be limited, and the acquisitions we do make may reduce, rather than increase, our cash available for distribution. These acquisitions could also affect the comparability of our results from period to period. We expect to fund future growth capital expenditures primarily from a combination of cash-on-hand, borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and the issuance of additional equity or debt securities. To the extent we issue additional units to fund future acquisitions or expansion capital expenditures, the payments of distributions on those additional units may increase the risk that we will be unable to maintain or increase our per unit distribution level.
Third-Party Business. As of September 30, 2015, PBF Holding accounts for all of our revenues. We are examining further diversification of our customer base by potentially developing third-party throughput volumes in our existing system and expanding our asset portfolio to service third-party customers. Unless we are successful in attracting third-party customers, our ability to increase volumes will be dependent on PBF Holding, which has no obligation under our commercial agreements to supply our facilities with additional volumes in excess of its minimum volume commitments. If we are unable to increase throughput volumes, future growth may be limited.
How We Evaluate Our Operations
Our management uses a variety of financial and operating metrics to analyze our performance. These metrics are significant factors in assessing our operating results and profitability and include but are not limited to volumes, including terminal and pipeline throughput and storage capacity; operating and maintenance expenses; and EBITDA and distributable cash flow. We define EBITDA and distributable cash flow below.
Volumes. The amount of revenue we generate primarily depends on the volumes of crude oil and products that we throughput at our terminaling and pipeline operations and our available storage capacity. These volumes are primarily affected by the supply of and demand for crude oil and refined products in the markets served directly or indirectly by our assets. Although PBF Energy has committed to minimum volumes under the commercial agreements described above, our results of operations will be impacted by:
• | PBF Energy’s utilization of our assets in excess of the minimum volume commitments; |
• | our ability to identify and execute accretive acquisitions and organic expansion projects, and capture PBF Energy’s incremental volumes or third-party volumes; and |
• | our ability to increase throughput volumes at our facilities and provide additional ancillary services at those terminals and pipeline. |
Operating and Maintenance Expenses. Our management seeks to maximize the profitability of our operations by effectively managing operating and maintenance expenses. These expenses are comprised primarily of labor expenses, outside contractor expenses, utility costs, insurance premiums, repairs and maintenance expenses and related property taxes. These expenses generally remain relatively stable across broad ranges of throughput volumes but can fluctuate from period to period depending on the mix of activities performed during that period and the timing of these expenses. We will seek to manage our maintenance expenditures on our assets by scheduling
42
maintenance overtime to avoid significant variability in our maintenance expenditures and to minimize their impact on our cash flow.
EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow. We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense. We define distributable cash flow as EBITDA plus non-cash unit-based compensation expense, less net cash paid for interest, maintenance capital expenditures and income taxes. Distributable cash flow will not reflect changes in working capital balances. Distributable cash flow and EBITDA are not presentations made in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).
EBITDA and distributable cash flow are non-GAAP supplemental financial measures that management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies, may use to assess:
• | our operating performance as compared to other publicly traded partnerships in the midstream energy industry, without regard to historical cost basis or, in the case of EBITDA, financing methods; |
• | the ability of our assets to generate sufficient cash flow to make distributions to our unitholders; |
• | our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures; and |
• | the viability of acquisitions and other capital expenditure projects and the returns on investment of various investment opportunities. |
We believe that the presentation of EBITDA provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. We believe that the presentation of distributable cash flow will provide useful information to investors as it is a widely accepted financial indicator used by investors to compare partnership performance and provides investors with an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of our assets and the cash our business is generating. EBITDA and distributable cash flow should not be considered alternatives to net income, operating income, cash from operations or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA and distributable cash flow have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities. Additionally, because EBITDA and distributable cash flow may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definition of such matters may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility. EBITDA and distributable cash flow are reconciled to net income (loss) and net cash provided by (used in) operating activities in “—Results of Operations” below.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2015 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2014
Summary. Our net income for the three months ended September 30, 2015 increased $15.2 million to $20.3 million from $5.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in net income was primarily due to the following:
• | an increase in revenues of $20.0 million attributable to the effect of the new commercial agreements with PBF Energy; and |
• | a decrease in operating and maintenance expenses of $2.3 million, or 31.3%, as a result of a decrease in outside services and utility costs; |
• | partially offset by the following: |
◦ | an increase in general and administrative expenses of $0.3 million, or 10.5%, as a result of increased cost allocations of certain direct employee costs; |
◦ | an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $0.5 million, or 40.1%, related to new assets being placed into service; |
◦ | an increase in interest expense, net and other financing costs of $6.1 million attributable to the interest costs associated with the 2023 Notes, partially offset by interest income associated with our marketable securities; and |
◦ | an increase in amortization of loan fees of $0.3 million due to the amortization of capitalized debt issuance costs associated with the 2023 Notes. |
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014
Summary. Our net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased $54.5 million to $57.8 million from $3.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in net income was primarily due to the following:
• | an increase in revenues of $75.4 million attributable to the effect of the new commercial agreements with PBF Energy and a full nine months of commercial operations in 2015; |
• | partially offset by the following: |
◦ | an increase in operating and maintenance expenses of $1.3 million, or 7.6%, mainly related to higher repairs and maintenance and contract labor expenses; |
◦ | an increase in general and administrative expenses of $4.7 million, or 91.1%, as a result of increased cost allocations of certain direct employee costs, additional expenses related to being a publicly traded partnership and higher expenses associated with PBFX unit-based compensation; |
◦ | an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $2.0 million, or 69.3%, related to new assets being placed into service; |
◦ | an increase in interest expense, net and other financing costs of $12.2 million attributable to the interest costs associated with the 2023 Notes, partially offset by interest income associated with our marketable securities; and |
◦ | an increase in amortization of loan fees of $0.7 million due to the amortization of capitalized debt issuance costs associated with the 2023 Notes. |
Operating Segments
We review operating results in two reportable segments: (i) Transportation and Terminaling; and (ii) Storage. Decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of operating performance are made based on this segmentation. Management measures the operating performance of each of its reportable segments based on the segment operating income. Segment operating income is defined as net sales less operating expenses and
46
depreciation and amortization. General and administrative expenses not included in the Transportation and Terminaling and Storage segments are included in Corporate. Segment reporting is more fully discussed in Note 10 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q.
Transportation and Terminaling Segment
The following table and discussion is an explanation of our results of operations of the Transportation and Terminaling segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014:

Three Months Ended September 30, 2015 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2014
Revenue. Revenue from affiliates increased approximately $14.7 million, or 86.2%, to approximately $31.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to approximately $17.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in revenue from affiliates was primarily attributed to the effect
47
of the new commercial agreements with PBF Energy associated with the acquisitions of the Delaware West Rack, the Toledo Truck Terminal and Propane Loading Facility, and the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack. Prior to the acquisitions, our assets were a part of the integrated operations of PBF Energy and the operation of our assets did not generate third-party or inter-entity revenue, with the exception of the Delaware City Products Pipeline. Following the closing of the acquisitions, our revenues were generated from commercial agreements with PBF Energy.
Operating and Maintenance Expenses. Operating and maintenance expenses decreased approximately $2.3 million, or 43.1%, to approximately $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to approximately $5.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in operating and maintenance expenses was primarily attributable to approximately $2.9 million of lower operating expenses associated with outside services and utility costs at the Delaware Rail Terminal and Delaware West Rack due to lower throughput. This decrease is offset by an increase of approximately $0.5 million of operational support and materials expenses. The expenses prior to the Acquisitions from PBF were incurred by PBF Energy and its subsidiaries and were allocated to PBFX based on the nature of the expenses and our proportionate share of employee time and headcount. The allocation of PBF Holding's employee costs was based on each employee’s compensation plus associated employee benefits. Employee benefits include pension benefits and stock-based compensation.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased approximately $0.2 million, or 26.9%, to approximately $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to approximately $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily attributable to approximately $0.2 million of additional depreciation associated with the DCR West Rack assets which were placed in service in August 2014.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014
Revenue. Revenue from affiliates increased approximately $59.3 million, or 201.7%, to approximately $88.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to approximately $29.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in revenue from affiliates was primarily attributed to the effects of the commercial agreements associated with the Acquisitions from PBF. Prior to the Offering and Acquisitions from PBF, our assets were a part of the integrated operations of PBF Energy and the operation of our assets did not generate third-party or inter-entity revenue, with the exception of the Delaware City Products Pipeline. Following the closing of the Offering and Acquisitions from PBF, our revenues were generated from commercial agreements with PBF Energy.
Operating and Maintenance Expenses. Operating and maintenance expenses increased approximately $1.4 million, or 12.9%, to approximately $12.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to approximately $11.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in operating and maintenance expenses was primarily attributable to approximately $0.6 million in higher operating services and support costs, approximately $0.3 million in higher insurance costs, and $0.6 million in higher material costs. The expenses prior to the Offering and the Acquisitions from PBF were incurred by PBF Energy and its subsidiaries and were allocated to PBFX based on the nature of the expenses and our proportionate share of employee time and headcount. The allocation of PBF Holding's employee costs was based on each employee’s compensation plus associated employee benefits. Employee benefits include pension benefits and stock-based compensation.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased approximately $1.2 million, or 72.5%, to approximately $3.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to approximately $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily attributable to approximately $0.9 million of additional depreciation associated with the DCR West Rack assets which were placed in service in August 2014.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2015 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2014
Revenue. Revenue from affiliates increased approximately $5.3 million, or 100.0%, to approximately $5.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $0.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in revenue from affiliates was attributed to the effects of the commercial agreement associated with the acquisition of the Toledo Storage Facility. Prior to the acquisition, our assets were a part of the integrated operations of PBF Energy, and our Predecessor generally recognized only the costs and did not record revenue associated with the storage services provided to PBF Energy on an intercompany basis. Following the closing of the acquisitions, our revenues were generated from commercial agreements with PBF Energy.
Operating and Maintenance Expenses. Operating and maintenance expenses increased approximately $0.1 million, or 5.9%, to approximately $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to approximately $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in operating and maintenance expenses was primarily attributable to an approximate $0.7 million increase in materials expenses offset by a $0.6 million decrease in operational and support services expenses associated with the Toledo Storage Facility tank farm assets. The expenses prior to the Acquisitions from PBF were incurred by PBF Energy and its subsidiaries and were allocated to PBFX based on the nature of the expenses and our proportionate share of employee time and headcount. The allocation of PBF Holding's employee costs was based on each employee’s compensation plus associated employee benefits. Employee benefits include pension benefits and stock-based compensation.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased approximately $0.3 million, or 65.2%, to approximately $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to approximately $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily attributable to additional assets being placed in service at the Toledo Storage Facility.
49
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014
Revenue. Revenue from affiliates increased approximately $16.1 million, or 100.0%, to approximately $16.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $0.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in revenue from affiliates was attributed to the effects of the commercial agreements associated with the acquisition of the Toledo Storage Facility. Prior to the Offering and Acquisitions from PBF, our assets were a part of the integrated operations of PBF Energy, and our Predecessor generally recognized only the costs and did not record revenue associated with the storage services provided to PBF Energy on an intercompany basis. Following the closing of the Offering and Acquisitions from PBF, our revenues were generated from commercial agreements with PBF Energy.
Operating and Maintenance Expenses. Operating and maintenance expenses decreased approximately $0.2 million, or 2.8%, to approximately $5.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to approximately $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in operating and maintenance expenses was primarily attributable to an approximate $2.1 million decrease in operational and support services associated with the Toledo Storage Facility tank farm assets, offset by an increase of $1.9 million in materials expenses. The expenses prior to the Offering and the Acquisitions from PBF were incurred by PBF Energy and its subsidiaries and were allocated to PBFX based on the nature of the expenses and our proportionate share of employee time and headcount. The allocation of PBF Holding's employee costs was based on each employee’s compensation plus associated employee benefits. Employee benefits include pension benefits and stock-based compensation.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased approximately $0.8 million, or 64.6%, to approximately $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to approximately $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was primarily attributable to an additional crude tank being placed in service at the Toledo Storage Facility in October 2014.
50
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We expect our ongoing sources of liquidity to include cash generated from operations, reimbursement by PBF Energy for certain capital expenditures, borrowings under our credit facility, and issuances of additional debt and equity securities. We believe that cash generated from these sources will be sufficient to meet our short-term working capital requirements, long-term capital expenditure requirements and minimum quarterly cash distributions.
We have paid, and intend to continue to pay, a quarterly distribution of at least $0.30 per unit per quarter, which equates to approximately $10.4 million per quarter, or $41.6 million per year, based on the number of common, subordinated and general partner units outstanding. We do not have a legal obligation to pay this distribution. On March 4, 2015, we made a quarterly cash distribution totaling $10.9 million, or $0.33 per unit. On May 20, 2015, we made a quarterly cash distribution totaling $12.0 million, or $0.35 per unit. On August 31, 2015, we made a quarterly cash distribution totaling $12.9 million, or $0.37 per unit.
Prior to the Offering, our sources of liquidity primarily consisted of funding from PBF Energy. Our cash receipts were deposited in PBF Energy’s bank accounts and all cash disbursements were made from these accounts. Thus, historically our Predecessor's financial statements have reflected minimal or no cash balances. Following the Offering, we have separate bank accounts but PBF Energy provides treasury services on behalf of PBF GP under our omnibus agreement. Following completion of the Offering and the Acquisitions from PBF, PBF Energy retained the working capital of our Predecessor, as these balances represented assets and liabilities related to our Predecessor's assets prior to the closing of the Offering and Acquisitions from PBF.
Credit Facilities
On May 14, 2014, we entered into the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan, each with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders.
The Revolving Credit Facility is available to fund working capital, acquisitions, distributions and capital expenditures and for other general partnership purposes. The maximum amount of the Revolving Credit Facility was increased from $275.0 million to $325.0 million in December 2014. The Partnership has the ability to further increase the maximum amount of the Revolving Credit Facility by an additional $275.0 million, to a total facility size of $600.0 million, subject to receiving increased commitments from lenders or other financial institutions and satisfaction of certain conditions. The Revolving Credit Facility includes a $25.0 million sublimit for standby letters of credit and for swingline loans. Obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility and certain cash management and hedging obligations designated by the Partnership are guaranteed by its restricted subsidiaries, and are secured by a first priority lien on the Partnership’s assets and those of the Partnership’s restricted subsidiaries other than excluded assets and a guaranty of collection from PBF LLC. The maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility may be extended for one year on up to two occasions, subject to certain customary terms and conditions. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at either a Base Rate (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.75% to 1.75%, or at LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.75%. The applicable margin will vary based upon the Partnership’s Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility.
The Term Loan was used to fund distributions to PBF LLC and is guaranteed by a guaranty of collection from PBF LLC and secured at all times by cash or U.S. Treasury securities in an amount equal to or greater than the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan. Borrowings under the Term Loan bear interest either at Base Rate (as defined in the Term Loan), or at LIBOR plus an applicable margin equal to 0.25%.
The Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan contain covenants that limit or restrict our ability to make cash distributions. We are required to maintain certain financial ratios, each tested on a quarterly basis for the immediately preceding four quarter period. We are in compliance with our covenants under the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan as of September 30, 2015.
51
On May 12, 2015, we completed the offering of $350.0 million of 2023 Senior Notes. The initial purchasers in the offering purchased $330.1 million aggregate principal amount of 2023 Notes and certain of PBF Energy’s officers and directors and their affiliates and family members purchased the remaining $19.9 million aggregate principal amount of 2023 Notes. We used the net proceeds of approximately $343.0 million from the offerings, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and estimated offering expenses, to pay $88.0 million of the cash consideration due in connection with the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack Acquisition and to repay $255.0 million of outstanding indebtedness under our Revolving Credit Facility. We pay interest on the 2023 Notes semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2015. The 2023 Notes mature on May 15, 2023.
The 2023 Notes contain customary terms, events of default and covenants for an issuer of non-investment grade debt securities. These covenants include limitations or restrictions on us and our restricted subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things, make distributions. These covenants are subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions. As of September 30, 2015, we are in compliance with all covenants under the 2023 Notes.
Cash Flows
The following table sets forth our cash flows for the periods indicated:
Nine Months Ended September 30, | ||||||||
2015 | 2014* | |||||||
(In thousands) | ||||||||
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities | $ | 63,389 | $ | 700 | ||||
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities | (485 | ) | (305,903 | ) | ||||
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities | (58,833 | ) | 317,213 | |||||
Net change in cash and cash equivalents | $ | 4,071 | $ | 12,010 |
* Prior-period financial information has been retrospectively adjusted for the Acquisitions from PBF.
Net cash provided by operating activities increased approximately $62.7 million to approximately $63.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily the result of net income of approximately $57.8 million recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, compared to a net income of approximately $3.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 also included non-cash charges relating to depreciation and amortization of approximately $4.9 million, amortization of loan fees of approximately $0.9 million and unit-based compensation of approximately $2.4 million, partially offset by net changes in working capital of approximately $2.7 million primarily driven by the timing of collection of accounts receivables and payments of accounts payable. Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 included non-cash charges relating to depreciation and amortization of approximately $2.9 million, amortization of loan fees of approximately $0.2 million and unit-based compensation of approximately $0.7 million, partially offset by net changes in working capital of approximately $6.4 million.
Net cash used in investing activities decreased approximately $305.4 million to net cash used in investing activities of approximately $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to net cash used in investing activities of approximately $305.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities was primarily the result of a decrease in capital expenditures of approximately $39.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and net purchases of $264.9 million of marketable securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Net cash from financing activities decreased approximately $376.0 million to net cash used in financing activities of approximately $58.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of approximately $317.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
52
Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 consisted of net repayment of our Revolving Credit Facility of approximately $250.6 million, distributions to PBF LLC related to acquisitions of approximately $112.5 million, distributions to unitholders of approximately $35.8 million, distribution to parent of approximately $1.0 million related to the pre-acquisition activity of the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack, net repayment of our Term Loan of approximately $0.7 million, and deferred financing costs of approximately $8.2 million, partially offset by the proceeds from the issuance of the 2023 Notes of $350.0 million. Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 consisted of proceeds from the issuance of common units of approximately $341.0 million, proceeds from our revolving credit agreement of $140.1 million, net proceeds from our Term Loan of approximately $264.9 million, and parent contributions of approximately $47.4 million related to our Predecessor, partially offset by distributions to PBF LLC related to the Offering of approximately $328.7 million, distributions to PBF LLC related to acquisitions of approximately $135.0 million, distributions to unitholders of approximately $5.1 million, offering costs for the issuance of common units of approximately $5.0 million, and deferred financing costs of approximately $2.3 million.
Capital Expenditures
Our capital requirements have consisted of and are expected to continue to consist of maintenance capital expenditures and expansion capital expenditures. Maintenance capital expenditures are cash expenditures (including expenditures for the addition or improvement to, or the replacement of, our capital assets, and for the acquisition of existing, or the construction or development of new, capital assets) made to maintain our long-term operating income or operating capacity. Examples of maintenance capital expenditures are expenditures for the refurbishment and replacement of terminals, to maintain equipment reliability, integrity and safety and to address environmental laws and regulations. Expansion capital expenditures are cash expenditures incurred for acquisitions or capital improvements that we expect will increase our operating income or operating capacity over the long term. Examples of expansion capital expenditures include the acquisition of equipment and the construction, development or acquisition of unloading equipment or other equipment at our facilities or additional throughput capacity to the extent such capital expenditures are expected to expand our operating capacity or our operating income.
Capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 were approximately $1.2 million. We currently have not included any potential future acquisitions in our budgeted capital expenditures for the twelve months ending December 31, 2015.
We expect that we will sell our U.S. Treasury or other investment grade securities currently used to secure our obligations under the Term Loan over time to fund our capital expenditures, and immediately prior to selling such securities, we will repay an equal amount of Term Loan borrowings with borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility. We may also rely on external sources including other borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, and issuances of equity and debt securities to fund any significant future expansion.
Under our omnibus agreement with PBF GP, PBF LLC and PBF Holding, PBF Energy has agreed to reimburse us for any costs up to $20.0 million per event (net of any insurance recoveries) that we incur for repairs required due to the failure of any Contributed Asset to operate in substantially the same manner and condition as such asset was operating prior to the closing of the Offering and the Acquisitions from PBF during the first five years after the closing of the Offering and the Acquisitions from PBF, and any matters related thereto.
Contractual Obligations
With the exception of the 2023 Notes offering and the routine fluctuation in the balances of our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan, there have been no significant changes in our debt obligations since those reported in our 2014 Form 10-K. See Note 4 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for more information regarding our debt obligations.
53
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any transactions, agreements or other contractual arrangements that would result in off-balance sheet liabilities, other than outstanding letters of credit in the amount of approximately $2.0 million.
Environmental and Other Matters
Environmental Regulation.
Our operations are subject to extensive and frequently changing federal, state and local laws, regulations and ordinances relating to the protection of the environment. Among other things, these laws and regulations govern the emission or discharge of pollutants into or onto the land, air and water, the handling and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes and the remediation of contamination. As with the industry generally, compliance with existing and anticipated environmental laws and regulations increases our overall cost of business, including our capital costs to develop, maintain, operate and upgrade equipment and facilities. While these laws and regulations affect our maintenance capital expenditures and net income, we believe they do not affect our competitive position, as the operations of our competitors are similarly affected. We believe our facilities are in substantial compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations. However, these laws and regulations are subject to changes, or to changes in the interpretation of such laws and regulations, by regulatory authorities, and continued and future compliance with such laws and regulations may require us to incur significant expenditures. Additionally, violation of environmental laws, regulations and permits can result in the imposition of significant administrative, civil and criminal penalties, injunctions limiting our operations, investigatory or remedial liabilities or construction bans or delays in the development of additional facilities or equipment. Furthermore, a release of hydrocarbons or hazardous substances into the environment could, to the extent the event is not insured, subject us to substantial expenses, including costs to comply with applicable laws and regulations and to resolve claims by third parties for personal injury or property damage, or by the U.S. federal government or state governments for natural resources damages. These impacts could directly and indirectly affect our business and have an adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations and liquidity. We cannot currently determine the amounts of such future impacts.
Environmental Liabilities.
Contamination resulting from spills of crude oil or petroleum products are not unusual within the petroleum terminaling or transportation industries. Historic spills at truck and rail racks, and terminals as a result of past operations have resulted in contamination of the environment, including soils and groundwater.
Pursuant to the contribution agreements entered into in connection with the Offering and the Acquisitions from PBF, PBF Energy has agreed to indemnify us for certain known and unknown environmental liabilities that are based on conditions in existence at our Predecessor's properties and associated with the ownership or operation of the Contributed Assets and arising from the conditions that existed prior to the closings of the Offering and the Acquisitions from PBF. In addition, we have agreed to indemnify PBF Energy for certain events and conditions associated with the ownership or operation of our assets that occur after the closings of the Offering and the Acquisitions from PBF, and for environmental liabilities related to our assets to the extent PBF Energy is not required to indemnify us for such liabilities or if the environmental liability is the result of the negligence, willful misconduct or criminal conduct of PBF Energy or its employees, including those seconded to us. As a result, we may incur the type of expenses described above in the future, which may be substantial.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. Because we do not generally own the crude oil or refined products that are distributed through our facilities, and because all of our commercial agreements with PBF Energy require PBF Energy to bear the risk of any material volume loss relating to the services we provide, we have minimal direct exposure to risks associated with fluctuating commodity prices.
54
Debt that we incur under our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan bears interest at a variable rate and exposes us to interest rate risk. A 1.0% change in the interest rate associated with the borrowings outstanding under these facilities would result in a $4.5 million change in our interest expense, assuming we were to borrow all $325.0 million under our Revolving Credit Facility and the outstanding balance of our Term Loan was $234.2 million.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
PBFX maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures that is designed to provide reasonable assurance that information which is required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to management in a timely manner. Under the supervision and with the participation of PBFX's management, including PBFX's principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, PBFX has evaluated the effectiveness of our system of disclosure controls and procedures as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) as of September 30, 2015. Based on that evaluation, PBFX's principal executive officer and the principal financial officer have concluded that PBFX's disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The SEC, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, adopted rules requiring every public company that files reports with the SEC to include a management report on such company's internal control over financial reporting in its annual report. Pursuant to the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 for up to five years or through such earlier date that we are no longer an emerging growth company as defined in the JOBS Act. Our first Annual Report on Form 10-K was not required to include a report of management's assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by SEC rules applicable to new public companies. Management will be required to provide an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015.
Management has not identified any changes in PBFX's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Although from time to time we may be involved in litigation and claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business, we do not believe that we are a party to any litigation that will have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or statements of cash flows. We are not aware of any material legal or governmental proceedings against us, or contemplated to be brought against us.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
The following risk factor supplements and/or updates the risk factors previously disclosed in our
2014 Form 10-K:
Debt we incur in the future may limit our flexibility to obtain financing and to pursue other business opportunities.
We and our subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial indebtedness in the future. Our future level of debt could have important consequences to us, including the following:
55
• | our ability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, for working capital, capital expenditures or other purposes may be impaired, or such financing may not be available on favorable terms; |
• | our funds available for operations, future business opportunities and distributions to unitholders will be reduced by that portion of our cash flow required to make interest payments on our debt; |
• | we may be more vulnerable to competitive pressures or a downturn in our business or the economy generally; and |
• | our flexibility in responding to changing business and economic conditions may be limited. |
Our ability to service our debt will depend upon, among other things, our future financial and operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, regulatory and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. If our operating results are not sufficient to service any future indebtedness, we will be forced to take actions such as reducing distributions, reducing or delaying our business activities, acquisitions, organic growth projects, investments or capital expenditures, selling assets or issuing equity.
We may not be able to affect any of these actions on satisfactory terms or at all. We have sold, and expect to continue to sell, our U.S. Treasury or other investment grade securities currently used to secure our obligations under the Term Loan over time to fund our capital expenditures, and immediately prior to selling such securities, we expect to continue to repay an equal amount of Term Loan borrowings with borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility. We may also rely on external sources including other borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, and issuances of equity and debt securities to fund any significant future expansion. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we borrowed an additional $24.5 million under our Revolving Credit Facility to partially fund the acquisitions of the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack and to repay $0.7 million of our Term Loan in order to release the $0.7 million in marketable securities to fund capital expenditures and acquisitions.
Any borrowings and letters of credit issued under our Revolving Credit Facility will be secured, and as a result, effectively senior to the 2023 Notes and the guarantees of the 2023 Notes by the guarantors, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness. The Term Loan is also fully cash collateralized at all times by cash, U.S. Treasuries or other investment grade securities. In addition, the holders of any future debt we may incur that ranks equally with the 2023 Notes will be entitled to share ratably with the holders of the 2023 Notes in any proceeds distributed in connection with any insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution or other winding up of us. This may have the effect of reducing the amount of proceeds paid to holders of the 2013 Notes in such events.
Our debt levels may limit our flexibility in obtaining additional financing and in pursuing other business opportunities.
As of September 30, 2015, we have $24.5 million of secured indebtedness and $2.0 million of letters of credit outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility, $234.2 million of secured indebtedness outstanding under our Term Loan (all of which is fully cash collateralized at all times by cash or U.S. treasury securities), $350.0 million of unsecured indebtedness consisting of the 2023 Notes, and an additional $298.5 million of total unused borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility. Our level of indebtedness could have important consequences to us, including the following:
• | our ability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other purposes may be impaired or such financing may not be available on favorable terms; |
• | covenants contained in our existing and future credit and debt arrangements will require us to meet financial tests that may affect our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our business, including possible acquisition opportunities; |
• | we will need a substantial portion of our cash flow to make principal and interest payments on our indebtedness, reducing the funds that would otherwise be available for operations, future business opportunities and payments of our debt obligations, including the 2023 Notes; and |
56
• | our debt level will make us more vulnerable than our competitors with less debt to competitive pressures or a downturn in our business or the economy generally. |
Any of these factors could result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, business prospects and ability to satisfy our obligations under the 2023 Notes.
Our ability to service our indebtedness will depend upon, among other things, our future financial and operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, regulatory and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. If our operating results are not sufficient to service our current or future indebtedness, we will be forced to take actions such as reducing distributions to our unitholders, reducing or delaying our business activities, acquisitions, investments and/or capital expenditures, selling assets, restructuring or refinancing our indebtedness, or seeking additional equity capital or bankruptcy protection. We may not be able to affect any of these remedies on satisfactory terms, or at all.
We may not be able to repurchase the 2023 Notes upon a change of control triggering event and a change of control triggering event could result in us facing substantial repayment obligations under our Revolving Credit Facility, our Term Loan and the 2023 Notes.
Upon occurrence of a change of control triggering event, the indenture provides that holders will have the right to require us to repurchase all or any part of their 2023 Notes with a cash payment equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of 2023 Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Additionally, our ability to repurchase the 2023 Notes upon such a change of control triggering event would be limited by our access to funds at the time of the repurchase and the terms of our other debt agreements. In addition, our Revolving Credit Facility and our Term Loan contain provisions relating to change of control of our general partner, our partnership and our operating subsidiaries. Upon a change of control triggering event, we may be required immediately to repay the outstanding principal, any accrued and unpaid interest on and any other amounts owed by us under our Revolving Credit Facility, our Term Loan, the 2023 Notes and any other outstanding indebtedness. The source of funds for these repayments would be our available cash or cash generated from other sources. However, we cannot assure holders that we will have sufficient funds available or that we will be permitted by our other debt instruments to fulfill these obligations upon a change of control in the future, in which case the lenders under our Revolving Credit Facility and our Term Loan would have the right to foreclose on our assets, which would have a material adverse effect on us. Furthermore, certain change of control events would constitute an event of default under the agreement governing our Revolving Credit Facility and our Term Loan and we might not be able to obtain a waiver of such defaults. There is no restriction in our partnership agreement on the ability of our general partner to enter into a transaction which would trigger the change of control provisions of our Revolving Credit Facility, our Term Loan or the indenture governing the 2023 Notes.
The indenture governing the 2023 Notes, our Revolving Credit Facility and our Term Loan contain restrictions which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and our ability to service our indebtedness.
We are dependent upon the earnings and cash flow generated by our operations in order to meet our debt service obligations. The indenture governing the 2023 Notes contains and our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan contain, and any future financing agreements may contain, operating and financial restrictions and covenants that could restrict our ability to finance future operations or capital needs, or to expand or pursue our business activities, which may, in turn, limit our ability to service our indebtedness. For example, our Revolving Credit Facility and the indenture that govern the 2023 Notes offered hereby restrict our ability to, among other things:
• | make investments; |
• | incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue preferred units; |
• | pay dividends or make distributions on units or redeem or repurchase our subordinated debt; |
• | create liens; |
• | incur dividend or other payment restrictions affecting subsidiaries; |
57
• | sell assets; |
• | merge or consolidate with other entities; and |
• | enter into transactions with affiliates. |
Furthermore, our Revolving Credit Facility contains covenants requiring us to maintain certain financial ratios. The Term Loan also contains affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, limit our use of the proceeds from the loan and restrict our ability to incur liens and enter into burdensome agreements.
The provisions of our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan may affect our ability to obtain future financing and pursue attractive business opportunities and our flexibility in planning for, and reacting to, changes in business conditions. In addition, a failure to comply with the provisions of our existing debt could result in an event of default that could enable our lenders, subject to the terms and conditions of such debt, to declare the outstanding principal, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable. If we were unable to repay the accelerated amounts, our lenders could proceed against the collateral granted to them to secure such debt. If the payment of our debt is accelerated, defaults under our other debt instruments, if any, may be triggered, and our assets may be insufficient to repay such debt in full and the holders of our units could experience a partial or total loss of their investment.
Our tax treatment depends on our status as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as well as our not being subject to a material amount of entity-level taxation by individual states. If the Internal Revenue Service treats us as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes or we become subject to material additional amounts of entity-level taxation for state tax purposes, it would substantially reduce the amount of cash available for payments on the 2023 Notes and our other debt obligations.
Despite the fact that we are a limited partnership under Delaware law, it is possible in certain circumstances for a publicly traded partnership such as ours to be treated as a corporation rather than a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Although we do not believe based upon our current operations that we are so treated, a change in our business or a change in current law could cause us to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax
purposes or otherwise subject us to taxation as an entity.
If we were treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we would pay U.S. federal tax on our taxable income at the corporate tax rate, which is currently a maximum of 35%, and would likely pay state income tax at varying rates. Therefore, our treatment as a corporation would result in a material reduction in our anticipated cash flow and could materially adversely affect our ability to make payments on the 2023 Notes and our other debt obligations.
Current law may change so as to cause us to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise subject us to entity-level taxation. For example, from time to time, members of the U.S. Congress propose and consider substantive changes to the federal income tax laws that affect publicly traded partnerships. One such legislative proposal would have eliminated the exception upon which we rely for our treatment as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We are unable to predict whether any of these changes, or other proposals, will be reconsidered or will ultimately be enacted. Any such changes could negatively impact the amount of cash available for payments on the 2023 Notes and our other debt obligations.
In addition, changes in current state laws may subject us to additional entity-level taxation by individual states. Several states are evaluating ways to subject partnerships to entity-level taxation through the imposition of state income, franchise and other forms of taxation because of widespread state budget deficits. Imposition of any such taxes on us may reduce the cash available for payments on the 2023 Notes and our other debt obligations.
