Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, DKL PG acquired (the "Acquisition") the Contributors' crude oil gathering system located in Howard, Borden and Martin Counties, Texas (the "Gathering System"), and certain related assets. Total consideration for the Acquisition was approximately $145.5 million, subject to certain post-closing adjustments, comprised of (i) $100 million in cash financed with borrowings under Delek Logistics' revolving credit facility and (ii) 5,000,000 newly issued common units of limited partnership interest in Delek Logistics (the "New Units").

The foregoing description of the Contribution Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Contribution Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Throughput and Deficiency Agreement

In connection with the Acquisition, Lion Oil Trading & Transportation, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Delek US ("Shipper") and DKL PG (as operator of the Gathering System, "Operator"), entered into a Throughput and Deficiency Agreement (the "T&D Agreement"). Under the T&D Agreement, the Operator will operate and maintain the Gathering System connecting Shipper's interests in and to certain crude oil with Delek Logistics' Big Spring, Texas terminal and provide gathering, transportation and other related services with respect to any and all crude produced from Shipper's and certain other producers' respective interests for delivery at the Big Spring Terminal. Pursuant to the T&D Agreement, Shipper has committed to ship 120,000 bpd on the Gathering System and 50,000 bpd to a redelivery point in Howard County, Texas (collectively, the "MVCs"). Pursuant to the T&D Agreement, Operator has also agreed to spend up to $33.8 million over three years to connect additional receipt points and, in connection with such expenditures, the MVCs will increase to provide Operator a 12.5% return on the actual costs directly incurred and paid by the Operator pursuant to the terms set forth in the T&D. The initial term of the T&D Agreement is 10 years, and thereafter Shipper has the option to extend the T&D Agreement for two additional five-year terms.
