Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On January 3, 2012, Genesis Energy, L.P. (“Genesis”) completed its acquisition of Marathon Oil Company’s (“Marathon Oil”) interests in several Gulf of Mexico crude oil pipeline systems, including a 28% interest in Poseidon Oil Pipeline Company, L.L.C., a 29% interest in Odyssey Pipeline L.L.C, and a 23% interest in the Eugene Island Pipeline System. The purchase price (subject to usual and customary post-closing adjustments for debt, working capital, and other items) for those assets was approximately $205.9 million, which includes an estimated $26 million valuation of crude oil line fill at current market prices net to the interests acquired. Marathon Oil is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Marathon Oil Corporation. Marathon Oil separately sold interests to a third party in two smaller pipeline systems that Genesis had agreed to purchase, if Marathon did not find another buyer.

The acquisitions were completed pursuant to the terms of three previously announced agreements, copies of which are filed hereto as Exhibits 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 and incorporated herein by reference. The descriptions of the agreements contained herein are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such agreements.

The representations and warranties of Genesis and Marathon Oil in the agreements were made only for purposes of those agreements and as of specific dates and were solely for the benefit of the other party thereto. The agreements are contractual documents that establish and govern the legal relations among the parties thereto and are not intended to be a source of factual, business or operational information about Genesis or Marathon Oil and their respective subsidiaries or the interests acquired from Marathon Oil. The representations and warranties made by Genesis and Marathon Oil in the agreements may be (i) qualified by disclosure schedules containing information that modifies, qualifies or creates exceptions to such representations and warranties and (ii) subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Accordingly, investors and security holders should not rely on such representations and warranties as characterizations of the actual state of facts or circumstances.
