Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 24, 2019, PBF Logistics LP (the “Partnership”), and PBF Energy Company LLC (“PBF LLC”), a subsidiary of PBF Energy Inc. (“PBF Energy”), entered into a Contribution Agreement pursuant to which PBF LLC will contribute to the Partnership all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company interests of TVP Holding Company LLC (“TVP Holding”), an indirect subsidiary of PBF Holding Company LLC (“PBF Holding”). TVP Holding owns the remaining fifty percent membership interest (the “TVP Holding Interests”) in the Torrance Valley Pipeline Company LLC (“TVPC”), which owns the 189-mile San Joaquin Valley Pipeline system with a throughput capacity of approximately 110,000 barrels per day. The system, segregated into two parts, Northern and Southern portions, is comprised of the M55, M1 and M70 pipelines which are the primary crude gathering and transportation lines that supply PBF Energy’s Torrance refinery. The assets also include 11 pipeline stations with approximately one million barrels of combined tankage and truck unloading capability at two of the stations. The transaction, which is referred to herein as the “TVPC Acquisition,” is expected to close in the second quarter of 2019. Following the closing of the TVPC Acquisition, the Partnership will own 100% of TVPC.

In connection with the closing of the TVPC Acquisition, the Partnership and a subsidiary of PBF Energy will amend an existing mainline transportation services agreement to increase the minimum volume throughput commitment (“MVC”) from a monthly average of approximately 70,000 barrels per day to a monthly average of approximately 75,000 barrels per day. In exchange for the TVP Holding Interests, the Partnership will pay total consideration to PBF LLC of $200.0 million in cash. The Partnership expects to finance the consideration fully with cash through a combination of $135.0 million of gross proceeds from the Partnership’s registered direct offering of common units to certain institutional investors announced on April 24, 2019 and a $65.0 million draw-down from the Partnership’s senior secured revolving credit facility.

The foregoing description is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Contribution Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. The Contribution Agreement contains representations and warranties that the parties to the Contribution Agreement made solely for the benefit of each other. The assertions embodied in such representations and warranties are qualified by information contained in disclosure schedules that the parties exchanged in connection with signing the Contribution Agreement. In addition, these representations and warranties (i) may be intended not as statements of fact, but rather as a way of allocating risk to one of the parties if those statements prove to be inaccurate, (ii) may apply materiality standards different from what may be viewed as material to investors and (iii) were made only as of the date of the Contribution Agreement or as of such other date or dates as may be specified in the Contribution Agreement. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of such representations and warranties may change after the date of the Contribution Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the public disclosures of PBF Energy, PBF LLC or PBF Holding. Investors are urged not to rely on such representations and warranties as characterizations of the actual state of facts or circumstances at this time or any other time.
