Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Indenture and Notes Issuance

On November 28, 2017, Andeavor Logistics LP (the “Partnership”) and Tesoro Logistics Finance Corp. (“Finance Corp.” and, together with the Partnership, the “Issuers”) closed their previously announced offering (the “Notes Offering”) of $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 3.500% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “2022 Notes”), $750,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.250% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) and $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.200% Senior Notes due 2047 (the “2047 Notes” and, together with the 2022 Notes and the 2027 Notes, the “Notes”). The Issuers intend to use the net proceeds from the Notes Offering (i) to redeem all of the Issuers’ outstanding 5.875% Senior Notes due 2020 and 6.125% Senior Notes due 2021, (ii) to repay borrowings under the Partnership’s dropdown credit facility, (iii) to pay fees and expenses associated with the foregoing and (iv) for general partnership purposes (including the repayment of amounts outstanding under the Partnership’s general corporate credit facility).

The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of November 28, 2017 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuers, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). The Indenture contains customary terms, events of default and covenants for an issuer of investment grade debt securities.

The 2022 Notes were issued at a price of 99.690%, plus accrued interest from November 28, 2017, and bear interest at a rate of 3.500% per annum. The 2027 Notes were issued at a price of 99.822%, plus accrued interest from November 28, 2017, and bear interest at a rate of 4.250% per annum. The 2047 Notes were issued at a price of 99.668%, plus accrued interest from November 28, 2017, and bear interest at a rate of 5.200% per annum. Interest on each series of Notes is payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on June 1, 2018. The 2022 Notes will mature on December 1, 2022, the 2027 Notes will mature on December 1, 2027, and the 2047 Notes will mature on December 1, 2047.

The Issuers may redeem some or all of the 2022 Notes prior to November 1, 2022, some or all of the 2027 Notes prior to September 1, 2027, and some or all of the 2047 Notes prior to June 1, 2047, for cash at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to, but not including, the date of redemption.

The Notes are general senior unsecured obligations of the Issuers and are equal in right of payment with all of the Issuers’ existing and future senior indebtedness, including amounts outstanding under the Partnership’s existing notes and the Partnership’s credit facilities. The Notes are senior to any future subordinated indebtedness the Issuers may incur. The Notes are guaranteed (the “Guarantees”) on a senior unsecured basis by substantially all of the Partnership’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries (except for Finance Corp.) that guarantee other specified indebtedness. The Guarantees are equal in right of payment with the existing and future senior indebtedness of the Guarantors and rank senior to any future subordinated indebtedness the Guarantors may incur. The Notes and the Guarantees are structurally junior to the indebtedness and other liabilities of any non-Guarantor subsidiaries of the Partnership.

The foregoing descriptions of the Indenture and the Notes do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Indenture (including the form of note attached thereto), which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

On November 28, 2017, the Partnership issued a press release relating to the Notes Offering. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.

Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement

In connection with the Notes Offering, on November 16, 2017, the Issuers called for redemption all of the then outstanding 5.875% Senior Notes due 2020 and 6.125% Senior Notes due 2021. The indentures governing these notes were satisfied and discharged in accordance with the terms thereof on November 28, 2017.


Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The information set forth above under Item 1.01 above is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
