Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
As previously announced, on February 17, 2016, Phillips 66 Partners LP (the "Partnership") entered into a Contribution, Conveyance and Assumption Agreement (the "Contribution Agreement") with Phillips 66 Partners GP LLC (the "General Partner"), Phillips 66 Company ("P66 Company"), and Phillips 66 Project Development Inc. ("P66 PDI"), each a wholly owned subsidiary of Phillips 66 ("PSX"). Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, the Partnership acquired from P66 PDI (the "Fractionator Transaction"), through a series of intercompany contributions, 100 percent of the limited liability company interests (the "Acquired Interests") in each of Phillips 66 Sweeny Frac Alpha LLC ("Alpha LLC") and Phillips 66 Sweeny Frac GP LLC ("Sweeny Frac GP"). Alpha LLC owns a 25 percent limited partner interest in Phillips 66 Sweeny Frac LP ("Sweeny Frac LP"), and Sweeny Frac GP owns a noneconomic general partner interest in and is the sole general partner of Sweeny Frac LP. Sweeny Frac LP owns 100 percent of the limited liability company interests in Phillips 66 Sweeny Frac LLC ("Frac LLC"), which owns the assets described below:
• | A natural gas liquids ("NGL") fractionator at the Phillips 66 Sweeny refinery in Old Ocean, Texas, with the capacity to fractionate 100,000 barrels per day of Y-grade NGL into ethane, propane, butane, isobutane and natural gasoline (the "Sweeny Frac"). |
• | Five storage caverns located between the Sweeny refinery and Freeport, Texas, that will have a combined capacity to store 7.5 million barrels of Y-grade NGL, propane, and butane. Three of these caverns are currently in service and the remaining two caverns are expected to enter into service by the end of 2016 (the "Caverns"). |
The Fractionation Transaction closed on March 1, 2016. Total consideration of approximately $236 million was paid to P66 PDI for the Acquired Interests, consisting of the assumption by the Partnership of a note payable to P66 Company of approximately $212 million (the "Sponsor Note") and the issuance of 412,823 newly issued common units to P66 PDI and 8,425 general partner units to the General Partner to maintain its two percent general partner interest in the Partnership.
