Storage Segment Update


 
Adjusted Storage Segment EBITDA ($ in Millions)1 Storage Contract Renewals (% as of 7/17/2014) Our storage segment should benefit from the completion of our second unit train at St. James Terminal in November 2013 and the additional throughputs at our Corpus Christi North Beach Terminal. We expect that weak West Coast storage demand and the narrowing of the LLS to WTI spread, which negatively impacts both profit sharing and unit train demand, will offset benefits. 1 – Please see slide 28 for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP measure 16 2014 Storage Segment EBITDA Expected to be Comparable to 2013 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 Forecast $177 $208 $242 $256 $279 $287 $277 ~$277 < 1 Year 1 to 3 Years 3 to 5 Years > 5 Years 26% 40% 27% 7%


 
17 Pursuing Other Storage Terminal Opportunities Exploring rail car off-loading projects on the West Coast Considering viability of Pt. Tupper rail offloading facility for crude oil and/or LPG Evaluating additional storage and unit train volume expansion at St. James Terminal Assessing our St. Eustatius Terminal’s role in regional demand for additional crude oil storage and infrastructure capacity Analyzing terminal acquisitions in strategic markets Total Storage Segment internal growth spending could be in the range of $100 to $300 million1 1 – capital spending to take place over the next two to three years.


 
Fuels Marketing Segment Update


 
We Expect Reduced Working Capital Requirements and Minimized Volatility in the Fuels Marketing Segment 19 Segment is composed of:  Refined Products Marketing  Bunkering  Crude & Fuel Oil Trading A back-to-back supply agreement at our St. Eustatius terminal:  Reduced our working capital by approximately $50 million  Expected to improve results through reduced operating expenses Fuels Marketing Segment currently pays Storage Segment approximately $25 million in annual storage fees  Represents around 5% of Storage Segment revenues 2014 EBITDA results for the segment are expected to be $20 to $30 million1 1 – Please see slide 28 for a reconciliation of EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP measure

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Information: Financial Information The following is a reconciliation of income from continuing operations to EBITDA from continuing operations and DCF from continuing operations: Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 Income from continuing operations 57,187$ Plus interest expense, net 33,122 Plus income tax expense 1,865 Plus depreciation and amortization expense 47,936 EBITDA from continuing operations 140,110 Equity in earnings of joint ventures (3,294) Interest expense, net (33,122) Reliability capital expenditures (7,239) Income tax expense (1,865) Distributions from joint ventures 728 Other items 4,311 Mark-to-market impact of hedge transactions 6,692 DCF from continuing operations 106,321$ Less DCF from continuing operations available to general partner 12,766 DCF from continuing operations available to limited partners 93,555$ DCF from continuing operations per limited partner unit 1.20$ NuStar Energy L.P. utilizes financial measures, such as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), distributable cash flow (DCF) from continuing operations and DCF from continuing operations per unit, which are not defined in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management uses these financial measures because they are widely accepted financial indicators used by investors to compare partnership performance. In addition, management believes that these measures provide investors an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of the partnership's assets and the cash that the business is generating. None of these financial measures, which are not defined in GAAP are intended to represent cash flows from operations for the period, nor are they presented as an alternative to net income or income from continuing operations. They should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for a measure of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of segment reporting, we do not allocate general and administrative expenses to our reported operating segments because those expenses relate primarily to the overall management at the entity level. Therefore, EBITDA reflected in the segment reconciliations exclude any allocation of general and administrative expenses consistent with our policy for determining segmental operating income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. 26
