As previously reported, effective June 1, 2017, Deloitte & Touche LLP resigned as Western Refining Logistics LP’s (the “Partnership”) certifying accountant and auditor.

During the Partnership's two most recent fiscal years and through June 16, 2017, neither the Partnership nor anyone acting on the Partnership's behalf consulted EY regarding (a) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or contemplated, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the financial statements of the Partnership, and no written or oral advice of EY was provided with respect to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, or (b) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement of the type described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K or any “reportable event” described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
