Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 17, 2015, PBF Holding Company LLC ("PBF Holding"), a subsidiary of PBF Energy Inc. ("PBF Energy" and collectively with its consolidated subsidiaries including PBF Holding, the "Company"), entered into a definitive Sale and Purchase Agreement (the “Sale and Purchase Agreement”) with ExxonMobil Oil Corporation, Mobil Pipe Line Company and PDV Chalmette, L.L.C. (collectively, the "Sellers"), to purchase the ownership interests of Chalmette Refining, L.L.C. (“Chalmette Refining”), which owns the Chalmette Refinery and related logistics assets (collectively, the "Chalmette Acquisition"). The Chalmette Refinery located outside of New Orleans, Louisiana, is a 189,000 barrel per day, dual-train coking refinery with a Nelson Complexity of 12.7 and is capable of processing both light and heavy crude oil. With the Chalmette Acquisition, the Company will increase its total throughput capacity to over 725,000 barrels per day.
Chalmette Refining owns 100% of the MOEM Pipeline, providing access to the Empire Terminal, as well as the CAM Connection Pipeline, providing access to the Louisiana Offshore Oil Port facility through a third party pipeline. Chalmette Refining also owns 80% of each of the Collins Pipeline Company and T&M Terminal Company, both located in Collins, Mississippi, which provide a clean products outlet for the refinery to the Plantation and Colonial Pipelines. Also included in the acquisition are a marine terminal capable of importing waterborne feedstocks and loading or unloading finished products; a clean products truck rack which provides access to local markets; and a crude and product storage facility with approximately 7.5 million barrels of shell capacity.
The aggregate purchase price for the Chalmette Acquisition is $322 million in cash, plus inventory and working capital to be determined at closing. The purchase price is also subject to other customary purchase price adjustments. The Chalmette Acquisition is expected to close prior to year-end 2015, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, the absence of legal impediments prohibiting the Chalmette Acquisition, receipt of regulatory approvals and required consents and absence of a material adverse effect. PBF Holding expects to finance the transaction through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under its revolving credit facility, as well as potentially utilizing inventory intermediation arrangements with third parties. The Company does not expect to issue equity to finance any portion of this transaction. PBF Holding’s obligation to consummate the Chalmette Acquisition is not conditioned upon the receipt of financing. In addition, PBF Energy has guaranteed all payment and performance obligations of PBF Holding that relate to or arise out of the Sale and Purchase Agreement.
PBF Holding and the Sellers have made customary representations and warranties and have agreed to customary covenants in the Sale and Purchase Agreement, including the agreement of the Sellers, subject to certain exceptions, to conduct the businesses being acquired in the ordinary course, to use commercially reasonable efforts to preserve the business organizations and to refrain from engaging in certain activities during the period from the execution of the Sale and Purchase Agreement to the closing of the transaction. The Sale and Purchase Agreement contains customary termination rights for both the Company and the Sellers, and provides that the closing will occur as soon as possible, but in no event later than five business days after satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to closing; provided that the closing will not occur prior to the 120th day after the effective date of the Sale and Purchase Agreement without the prior consent of all parties. There is no assurance that all of the conditions to the consummation of the Chalmette Acquisition will be satisfied. The Sale and Purchase Agreement also provides for indemnification rights with respect to, among other things, breaches of representations, warranties or covenants by the parties.
The foregoing description is summary in nature and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Sale and Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1, and incorporated herein by reference.
The Sale and Purchase Agreement contains representations and warranties by PBF Holding and the Sellers as of specific dates. The representations and warranties reflect negotiations between the parties to the Sale and Purchase Agreement and are not intended as statements of fact to be relied upon by the Company’s shareholders; in certain cases, the representations and warranties merely represent allocation decisions among the parties; may have been modified or qualified by certain confidential disclosures that were made between the parties in connection with the negotiation of the Sale and Purchase Agreement, which disclosures are not reflected in the Sale and Purchase Agreement itself; may no longer be true as of a given date; and may apply standards of materiality in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material by shareholders. As such, the representations and warranties are solely for the benefit of the parties to the agreement. The representations and warranties may not describe the actual state of affairs at the date they were made or at any other time, may change after the date of the Sale and Purchase Agreement and should not be relied upon as statements of facts.
