SemGroup owns 51%, and KKR owns 49%, of SemCAMS Midstream, subsequent to close of the transactions described below.

Share Purchase Agreement

In connection with the formation of SemCAMS Midstream, on January 9, 2019, SemCAMS Midstream entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with Meritage Midstream Services III, LP (“Meritage”) to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Meritage Midstream ULC, an Alberta unlimited liability corporation (“Meritage ULC” and such acquisition, the “Meritage Acquisition”). On February 25, 2019, SemCAMS Midstream completed the Meritage Acquisition pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement for a debt-free, cash purchase price of C$645.6 million (US$490.8 million at the February 25, 2019 exchange rate), subject to customary post-closing

adjustments. The purchase price included C$152.3 million (US$115.8 million at the February 25, 2019 exchange rate) in reimbursements for estimated capital expenditures incurred from September 1, 2018 to the closing of the Meritage Acquisition (the “Meritage Closing”).

Pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, SemCAMS Midstream has obtained a representation and warranty insurance policy to cover losses arising from breaches of representations and warranties by Meritage. Each party has agreed to indemnify the other for breaches of covenants and certain other matters, subject to certain exceptions and limitations.

Investment and Contribution Agreement

Concurrently with the execution of the Share Purchase Agreement, SemGroup, KKR and SemCAMS Midstream entered into an Investment and Contribution Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”). On February 25, 2019, the Contribution (as defined below) closed immediately prior to the Meritage Closing (the “Contribution Closing”). Pursuant to the terms of the Contribution Agreement, each of SemGroup and KKR made the following contributions to SemCAMS Midstream: (i) SemGroup contributed 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests in its wholly owned subsidiary, SemCAMS ULC, an Alberta unlimited liability company, (the “SemGroup Contribution”) in exchange for (A) 51% of the common shares of SemCAMS Midstream, (B) a cash amount of C$645.6 million (US$490.8 million at the February 25, 2019 exchange rate), capital contributions to SemCAMS ULC by SemGroup, and other customary adjustments, (C) a potential payment of C$14.7 million (US$11.2 million at the February 25, 2019 exchange rate) contingent on positive final investment decision of a specific project by SemCAMS Midstream, and (D) earnout consideration in the form of a special share in SemCAMS Midstream entitled to dividend payments up to a maximum (pre-tax) aggregate amount of C$50.0 million (US$38.0 million at the February 25, 2019 exchange rate) if either or both of two specific projects proceed and EBITDA thresholds pertaining to those projects are achieved; and (ii) KKR contributed cash in the amount of C$785.6 million (US$597.2 million at the February 25, 2019 exchange rate), capital contributions to SemCAMS ULC by SemGroup and a payment of C$14.7 million (US$11.2 million at the February 25, 2019 exchange rate) contingent on the pursuit of a specific project (unrelated to the two projects referred to above) by SemCAMS Midstream, and other customary adjustments (the “KKR Contribution” and, together with the SemGroup Contribution, the “Contribution”) in exchange for (A) 49% of the common shares of SemCAMS Midstream and (B) 300,000 preferred shares in SemCAMS Midstream (representing C$300 million (US$228.1 million at the February 25, 2019 exchange rate) of KKR cash contribution) which will pay annual dividends of $87.50 paid on a quarterly basis. SemCAMS Midstream may elect, for any of the first ten quarters following issuance of the preferred shares, to pay the dividends in-kind in the form of additional preferred shares. SemCAMS Midstream will have the right to convert the preferred shares into common shares in the event of an initial public offering of its common shares, at a conversion price equal to 92.5% of the IPO offering price. In connection with the issuance of the preferred shares, KKR received a C$6.0 million (US$4.6 million at the February 25, 2019 exchange rate) transaction fee from SemCAMS Midstream.

Included within the C$645.6 million (US$490.8 million at the February 25, 2019 exchange rate) cash received by SemGroup are reimbursements of C$30.6 million (US$23.2 million at the February 25, 2109 exchange rate) for a 51% share of the deposit made pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement. KKR’s cash contribution of C$785.6 million (US$597.2 million at the February 25, 2019 exchange rate) does not include C$29.4 million (US$22.3 million), the 49% share of the deposit made pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, which was not reimbursed to KKR and forms part of the KKR Contribution.

KKR and SemGroup have agreed to indemnify each other for breaches of covenants and certain other matters, subject to certain exceptions and limitations.

Upon the Contribution Closing, KKR and SemGroup entered into a unanimous shareholder agreement (the “Shareholder Agreement”) to cover corporate governance, transfer restrictions, funding obligations and other similar matters related to SemCAMS Midstream. The Shareholder Agreement includes customary restrictions on the activities of SemGroup and KKR that relate to the business of SemCAMS Midstream within a defined area of mutual interest surrounding the location in which SemCAMS Midstream will operate. In addition, the Shareholder Agreement includes certain liquidity rights that allow each of KKR and SemGroup to cause SemCAMS Midstream to pursue an initial public offering of its respective common shares after the third anniversary of the parties’ entry into the Shareholder Agreement.

Purchase price allocation

We are in the process of finalizing the determination of the fair value of consideration exchanged and assets and liabilities acquired at the acquisition date to record the business combination. Further, the acquired business was not yet

required to comply with ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)”. The determination of the estimated fair values of the assets acquired, including intangible assets and goodwill, and liabilities assumed is not yet complete and adjustments to preliminary amounts could be material.

As of March 31, 2019, we have recorded the preliminary purchase price allocation as follows in USD at the February 25, 2019, exchange rate (in thousands):



Assets acquired
Cash	$	2,756
Accounts receivable	29,330
Other current assets	60

Finite-lived intangibles are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Customer contracts are being amortized over 20 years on a straight-line basis. Goodwill primarily relates to the location of the business and potential for future growth. SemGroup will be able to deduct 51% of the goodwill from the transaction for U.S. income tax purposes. Acquired property, plant and equipment has been assigned useful lives consistent with our accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
