Item 1.01 Entry into Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 16, 2014, Lehigh Gas Partners LP (the “Partnership”) and Lehigh Gas GP LLC, the general partner of the Partnership (the “General Partner”), entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Barclays Capital Inc., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Raymond James & Associates, Inc., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and RBC Capital Markets, LLC as representatives of the several underwriters named in Schedule I thereto (the “Underwriters”). The Underwriting Agreement relates to an offering (the “Offering”) of 3,600,000 common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (“Common Units”) at a price to the public of $33.99 per Common Unit. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Partnership also granted the Underwriters an option for a period of 30 days to purchase up to 540,000 additional Common Units to cover over-allotments, if any, on the same terms. On September 16, 2014, the Underwriters notified the Partnership of their exercise in full of their option to purchase additional Common Units. The Partnership expects the transaction to close on September 19, 2014.

Affiliates of certain of the Underwriters are lenders under the Partnership’s credit facility and will receive their pro rata portion of the net proceeds from the Offering through the repayment of borrowings extended under the Partnership’s credit facility.

The Common Units to be sold pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3, as amended (File No. 333-192035), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 4, 2013.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements of the Partnership and the General Partner and customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Partnership, the General Partner and the Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act, other obligations of the parties, and termination provisions. The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
