As a result of the payment on August 9, 2016 by Valero Energy Partners LP (the “Partnership”) of the Partnership’s distribution for the second quarter of 2016, the financial tests required for conversion of all of the Partnership’s outstanding subordinated units into common units have been satisfied.
As a result, all of the Partnership’s subordinated units, which are owned by Valero Terminaling and Distribution Company (a wholly owned subsidiary of Valero Energy Corporation), have converted on a one-for-one basis into common units effective August 10, 2016. The conversion of the subordinated units does not impact the amount of cash distributions paid by the Partnership or the total number of its outstanding units. The subordinated units were issued by the Partnership in connection with its initial public offering in December 2013.
