Acquisitions

On August 9, 2016, we acquired a 2.62% equity interest in Explorer from SPLC (the “August 2016 Acquisition”) for $26.2 million. The August 2016 Acquisition was made in connection with SPLC’s right, as a current shareholder of Explorer, to acquire a portion of the equity interest being divested by another shareholder of Explorer. SPLC separately owns a 35.97% equity interest in Explorer. The August 2016 Acquisition closed on August 9, 2016 pursuant to a Share Purchase and Sale Agreement among us, the Operating Company and SPLC, and is accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control. We funded the August 2016 Acquisition with $26.3 million of cash on hand. Total transaction costs of $0.1 million were incurred. The terms of the August 2016 Acquisition were approved by the Board of Directors of our general partner (the “Board”). See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Common Control Transactions in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of our 2015 Annual Report for further discussion of how we account for the acquisition of assets and businesses under common control.

On May 23, 2016, we acquired an additional 30.0% interest in Zydeco, an additional 1.0% interest in Bengal and an additional 3.0% interest in Colonial for $700.0 million in consideration (the “May 2016 Acquisition”). The May 2016 Acquisition closed pursuant to a Contribution Agreement (the “May 2016 Contribution Agreement”) dated May 17, 2016 among us, the Operating Company and SPLC and became effective on April 1, 2016, and is accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control. We funded the May 2016 Acquisition with $345.8 million from the net proceeds of a registered public offering of 10,500,000 common units representing limited partner interests in us (the “May 2016 Offering”), $50.4 million of cash on hand and $296.7 million in borrowings under the Five Year Revolver (as defined in Note 7—Related Party Debt) with Shell Treasury Center (West) Inc. (“STCW”), an affiliate of Shell. The remaining $7.1 million in consideration consisted of an issuance of 214,285 general partner units to our general partner in order to maintain its 2.0% general partner interest in us. Total transaction costs of $0.4 million were incurred in association with the May 2016 Acquisition. The terms of the May 2016 Acquisition were approved by the Board and by the conflicts committee of the Board, which consists entirely of independent directors. The conflicts committee engaged an independent financial advisor and legal counsel. In accordance with the May 2016 Contribution Agreement, SPLC has agreed to reimburse us for our proportionate share of certain costs and expenses incurred by Zydeco after April 1, 2016 with respect to a directional drill project to address soil erosion over a two-mile section of our 22-inch diameter pipeline under the Atchafalaya River and Bayou Shaffer in Louisiana. Such reimbursements will be treated as an additional capital contribution from the general partner at the time of payment. The May 2016 Contribution Agreement contained customary representations and warranties and indemnification by SPLC.

In connection with the May 2016 Acquisition we acquired book value of net assets under common control as follows:

We recognized $606.3 million of consideration in excess of the book value of net assets acquired as a capital distribution to our general partner in accordance with our policy for common control transactions. This capital distribution is comprised of $599.2 million in cash and $7.1 million in general partner units issued.


On November 17, 2015, we acquired from SPLC a 100% interest in Pecten, which holds the Shell Auger and Lockport Operations. The acquisition of Pecten was a transfer of a business between entities under common control, which requires it to be accounted for as if the transfer had occurred at the beginning of the period of transfer, with prior periods retrospectively adjusted to furnish comparative financial information. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements and notes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 have been retrospectively adjusted to include the historical results of the business of Auger and Lockport prior to the acquisition's effective date of October 1, 2015. See Note 3 – Acquisitions in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of our 2015 Annual Report for further discussion of this acquisition.

The following tables present our condensed consolidated statement of income and condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the three and nine ended September 30, 2015 giving effect to the acquisition of Pecten. The results of Pecten prior to the effective date of the acquisition are included in “Shell Auger and Lockport Operations” and the consolidated results are included in “Consolidated Results” within the tables below:

On July 1, 2015, Shell Oil Products US (“SOPUS”) conveyed to us its 36.0% interest in Poseidon (the “July 2015 Acquisition”) for $350.0 million in cash. The July 2015 Acquisition closed pursuant to a contribution agreement dated July 1, 2015 (the “Poseidon Contribution Agreement”) among the Operating Company, the Partnership and SOPUS and is accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control. We have recorded this asset acquisition prospectively from the effective date. Poseidon is a Delaware Limited Liability Company formed in February 1996 to design, construct, own and operate a non-Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) regulated crude oil pipeline system located offshore Louisiana in the central region of the Gulf of Mexico. We account for our interest in Poseidon using the equity method of accounting.

In connection with the July 2015 Acquisition we acquired book value of net assets under common control of $30.5 million which is included in Equity method investments in our consolidated balance sheet. We recognized $319.5 million of consideration in excess of the book value of net assets acquired as a capital distribution to our General Partner in accordance with our policy for common control transactions.

On May 18, 2015, we acquired an additional 19.5% interest in Zydeco and an additional 1.388% interest in Colonial for $448.0 million in cash (the “May 2015 Acquisition”). The May 2015 Acquisition closed pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated May 12, 2015 (“Purchase and Sale Agreement”) among us, the Operating Company and SPLC and became effective on April 1, 2015, and was accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control. We funded the May 2015 Acquisition with $297.7 million from the Private Placement (as defined in Note 8—Equity), $80.0 million of cash on hand and $70.8 million in borrowings under the Five Year Revolver with STCW. Total transaction costs of $0.5 million were incurred in association with the May 2015 Acquisition. The terms of the May 2015 Acquisition were approved by the Board and by the conflicts committee of the Board, which consists entirely of independent directors. The conflicts committee engaged an independent financial advisor and legal counsel. In accordance with the Purchase and Sale Agreement, SPLC agreed to reimburse us for our proportionate share of certain costs and expenses incurred by Zydeco after April 1, 2015 with respect to a directional drill project to address soil erosion over a two-mile section of our 22-inch diameter pipeline under the Atchafalaya River and Bayou Shaffer in Louisiana. Such reimbursements will be treated as an additional capital contribution from the general partner at the time of payment.
