Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, TRMC agreed to contribute, through the General Partner and the Partnership, to the Operating Company the following assets (collectively, the “Assets”):

 

    tankage with a shell capacity of approximately 1.1 million barrels of crude oil and other feedstock storage and approximately 2.8 million barrels of refined product storage located at TRMC’s refinery in Anacortes, Washington (the “Anacortes Refinery), including gasoline blending facilities, together with all related equipment, pipeline interconnections, laboratories and ancillary facilities used for the operation thereof (the “Tankage”);

 

    rail terminal for the loading and unloading of crude oil and other heavy feedstocks from manifest railcars, together with certain rail lines connected thereto and railcar storage tracks, all related equipment and ancillary facilities used for the operation thereof (the “Manifest Rail Rack and Trackage”); and

 

    pipelines for the transfer of crude oil, non-crude feedstocks, black oils and light petroleum products between the Tankage and the Anacortes light products and LPG terminal, the marine terminal located on the site of the Anacortes Refinery, the Manifest Rail Rack and Trackage, the Anacortes Crude Oil Offloading Facility and third-party pipeline facilities (including the six 16-inch pipelines that deliver refined products from the Tankage to the Olympic Pipeline Manifold and the 12-inch pipeline that delivers crude oil from the manifold of Kinder Morgan’s TransMountain Pipeline to the Tankage (collectively, the “Short-Haul Pipelines”)), all related equipment and ancillary facilities used for the operation thereof.

On November 8, 2017, we completed the acquisition of the Assets as contemplated by the Contribution Agreement (the “Contribution”) in exchange for our payment to the General Partner of approximately $445 million, comprised of $400.5 million in cash financed with borrowings under our acquisition credit facility and 980,802 common units with a fair value of approximately $44.5 million.

In connection with the Contribution, we, the Operating Company, Andeavor, TRMC, the General Partner and certain other parties, as applicable, entered into certain commercial agreements on November 8, 2017, as described below.
