consummated the transactions (the "Transaction") contemplated by, a
Contribution, Conveyance and Assumption Agreement (the "Contribution Agreement")

Counties, Texas (the "Gathering System"), and certain related assets. Total

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 Contribution Agreement contains certain representations, warranties,
covenants and indemnities.
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. Following the initial term and any
such extensions, the T&D Agreement will continue on a year-to-year basis unless
terminated by either party upon 90 days' written notice.
