Item 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On August 28, 2018, Genesis Energy, L.P. (“Genesis”) entered into a Seventh Amendment (the “Credit Agreement Amendment”) to Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, among Genesis, as the borrower, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and issuing bank, Bank of America, N.A. and Bank of Montreal, as co-syndication agents, U.S. Bank National Association, as documentation agent, the lenders and other parties party thereto, which, among other things, sets the bank leverage ratio to 5.50x throughout the remaining term of the facility, currently May 8, 2022.

The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement Amendment, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1. The representations and warranties of Genesis in the Credit Agreement Amendment were made only for purposes of that agreement and as of specific dates and were solely for the benefit of the lenders party thereto. The Credit Agreement Amendment is a contractual document that establishes and governs the legal relations among the parties thereto and is not intended to be a source of factual, business, or operational information about Genesis and its subsidiaries. The representations and warranties made by Genesis in the Credit Agreement Amendment may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Accordingly, investors and security holders should not rely on such representations and warranties as characterizations of the actual state of facts or circumstances.
