Notes Offering and Underwriting Agreement
On October 11, 2016, Phillips 66 Partners LP (the “Partnership”) and Phillips 66 Partners GP LLC (the “General Partner”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Mizuho Securities USA Inc., as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), relating to the underwritten public offering (the “Notes Offering”) by the Partnership of $500 million aggregate principal amount of its 3.55% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) and $625 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.90% Senior Notes due 2046 (the “2046 Notes” and, together with the 2026 Notes, the “Notes”) to be issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of February 23, 2015 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of October 14, 2016, relating to the 2026 Notes (the “Fourth Supplemental Indenture”), and the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of October 14, 2016, relating to the 2046 Notes (the “Fifth Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture and the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, the “Indentures”), in each case between the Partnership and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”). The material terms of the Notes Offering are described in the prospectus supplement, dated October 11, 2016 (the “Prospectus Supplement”), filed by the Partnership with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on October 12, 2016 pursuant to Rule 424(b)(5) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Notes Offering was registered with the Commission pursuant to an effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-197797), initially filed by the Partnership on August 1, 2014 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”).
The Notes Offering closed on October 14, 2016. The Partnership received proceeds (net of underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses) from the Notes Offering of approximately $1,109.4 million. As described in the Prospectus Supplement, the Partnership intends to use the net proceeds from the Notes Offering to (i) to pay the cash consideration payable by the Partnership in its previously announced acquisition from Phillips 66 of certain pipeline and terminal assets supporting four Phillips 66 refineries (the "Acquisition") and (ii) for general partnership purposes, including to fund future acquisitions and organic projects and the repayment of outstanding indebtedness.
The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements of the Partnership and the General Partner, and customary conditions to closing, obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The Partnership and the General Partner have agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required to make because of any of those liabilities.
As more fully described under the caption “Underwriting” in the Prospectus Supplement, certain of the Underwriters have performed commercial banking, investment banking and advisory services for the Partnership and its affiliates from time to time for which they have received customary fees and reimbursement of expenses. The Underwriters or their affiliates may, from time to time, engage in transactions with and perform services for the Partnership and its affiliates in the ordinary course of their business for which they may receive customary fees and reimbursement of expenses. Affiliates of certain of the Underwriters are lenders under the Partnership’s revolving credit facility, and, in such capacity, may receive a portion of the net proceeds from the Notes Offering.
The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 1.1 to
2
this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference. The legal opinion relating to the Notes is filed as Exhibit 5.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Indentures
The Partnership issued each series of Notes pursuant to the applicable Indentures. The 2026 Notes will mature on October 1, 2026, and will bear interest at the annual rate of 3.55%. The 2046 notes will mature on October 1, 2046 and will bear interest at the annual rate of 4.90%. Interest on each series of Notes will accrue from October 14, 2016, and will be payable semiannually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on April 1, 2017. The Partnership will make interest payments to the applicable holders of record at the close of business on the March 15 and September 15 preceding such interest payment dates (whether or not a business day). Interest will be computed and paid with respect to each series of Notes on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.
Each series of Notes will constitute the senior unsecured debt of the Partnership and will rank:
• | equally in right of payment with the Partnership’s senior unsecured debt from time to time outstanding, including the Partnership’s obligations under its revolving credit facility, 2.646% Senior Notes due 2020, 3.605% Senior Notes due 2025, 4.680% Senior Notes due 2045 and each other series of Notes; |
• | senior in right of payment to the Partnership’s subordinated debt from time to time outstanding; |
• | effectively junior in right of payment to all of the Partnership’s future secured debt from time to time outstanding, to the extent of the value of the assets constituting the collateral securing the debt; and |
• | structurally junior in right of payment to the liabilities of the Partnership’s subsidiaries. |
The Partnership will have the right to redeem the 2026 Notes, in whole or in part at any time before July 1, 2026 (three months prior to the maturity date of the 2026 Notes) (the “2026 Notes Early Call Date”), at a redemption price, as determined by the Partnership, equal to the greater of: (1) 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes to be redeemed; or (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the 2026 Notes being redeemed that would be due if such 2026 Notes matured on the 2026 Notes Early Call Date but for the redemption (exclusive of any portion of the payments of interest accrued to the date of redemption), discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Yield, as defined in the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, plus 30 basis points, in each case together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date.
The Partnership will have the right to redeem the 2046 Notes, in whole or in part at any time before April 1, 2046 (six months prior to the maturity date of the 2046 Notes) (the “2046 Notes Early Call Date”), at a redemption price, as determined by the Partnership, equal to the greater of: (1) 100% of the principal amount of the 2046 Notes to be redeemed; or (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the 2046 Notes being redeemed that would be due if such notes matured on the 2046 Notes Early Call Date but for the redemption (exclusive of any portion of the payments of interest accrued to the date of redemption), discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Yield, as defined in the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, plus 40 basis points, in each case together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date.

The Indentures contain customary covenants that, among other things, will restrict the Partnership’s ability, with certain exceptions, to incur debt secured by liens; engage in sale/leaseback transactions; and merge, consolidate or transfer all or substantially all of its assets.
The foregoing descriptions of the Indentures and the Notes are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Indentures and the Notes, which are filed as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5 to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
