Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On February 16, 2018, AMID Merger LP (“AMID Merger Sub”), a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of American Midstream Partners, LP (“AMID”), entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with DKGP Energy Terminals LLC (“DKGP Energy”), a joint venture between Delek Logistics Partners, LP and Green Plains Partners LP. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, AMID Merger Sub has agreed to sell to DKGP Energy 100% of the membership interests in AMID Refined Products, LLC (“AMID Refined Products”), which indirectly owns two refined products terminals in North Little Rock, Arkansas and Caddo Mills, Texas (the “Refined Products Terminals”), for an aggregate purchase price of $138.5 million, plus balance sheet cash at closing, less the repayment of all indebtedness, and subject to working capital adjustments (the “Transaction”).

The closing of the Transaction is subject to satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including: (i) subject to specified materiality standards, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of each party; (ii) compliance by each party in all material respects with its covenants; (iii) expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”); and (iv) there being no law or injunction prohibiting the consummation of the Transaction.

AMID Merger Sub and DKGP Energy have made customary representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement also contains customary covenants and agreements, including covenants and agreements relating to: (i) the conduct of businesses during the interim period between the execution of the Purchase Agreement and consummation of the Transaction; and (ii) the efforts of the parties to cause the Transaction to be completed, including actions which may be necessary to cause the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act. Other than fundamental and tax representations, the representations and warranties contained in the Purchase Agreement will survive the consummation of the Transaction for a period of 12 months from the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). Subject to certain limitations on liability contained in the Purchase Agreement, AMID Merger Sub has agreed to indemnify DKGP Energy for breaches of representations and warranties, covenants and certain liabilities, including certain pre-closing tax matters and any liabilities of AMID Refined Products or its subsidiaries unrelated to the business of the Refined Products Terminals as conducted as of the consummation of the Transaction.

The Purchase Agreement contains certain termination rights for both AMID Merger Sub and DKGP Energy including, but not limited to, the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement in the event that (i) the Transaction has not been consummated on or before June 1, 2018 (or August 1, 2018 to the extent a request is made for additional information and documentary material pursuant to the HSR Act) or (ii) under certain conditions, if there has been a breach of certain representations and warranties or a failure to perform any covenant by the other party.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase Agreement, which will be filed with AMID’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending March 31, 2018.

The foregoing summary of the Purchase Agreement has been included, and the Purchase Agreement will be filed, to provide investors and security holders with information regarding the terms of the Purchase Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about AMID, AMID Merger Sub, DKGP Energy or their respective subsidiaries and affiliates. The Purchase Agreement contains representations and warranties by each of the applicable parties to the Purchase Agreement, which were made only for purposes of the Purchase Agreement and as of specified dates. The representations, warranties and covenants in the Purchase Agreement were made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement; may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosure schedules; may be made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Purchase Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts; and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of AMID, AMID Merger Sub, DKGP Energy or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in AMID’s public disclosures.
