Item 1.01.
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On September 11, 2013, Genesis Energy,
L.P. entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the "
Underwriting Agreement
") with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities
Inc., RBC Capital Markets, LLC and BMO Capital Markets Corp., as representatives of the underwriters named in the Underwriting Agreement, in connection with our public offering of common units representing limited partner interests in us (the
"
Common Units
").
The Underwriting Agreement provides for, among other things, the issuance and sale by us of an
aggregate of 5,000,000 Common Units at a public offering price of $47.51 per Common Unit. In addition, we granted the underwriters a
30-day
option to purchase up to an additional 750,000 Common Units from us,
which option was exercised in full.
The Common Units have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"
Securities Act
"), pursuant to our effective Registration Statement on Form
S-3
(Registration
No. 333-180876),
as supplemented by the
Prospectus Supplement dated September 11, 2013, relating to the Common Units, filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act. The closing of the sale of the Common Units is expected to occur on September 16, 2013.
The Underwriting Agreement provides that the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the Common Units are subject to receipt of legal
opinions by counsel and to other customary conditions. The underwriters are obligated to purchase all the Common Units if they purchase any of the Common Units. We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including
liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make because of any of those liabilities.
The Underwriting Agreement contains representations, warranties and other provisions that were made or agreed to, among other things, to
provide the parties thereto with specified rights and obligations and to allocate risk among them. Accordingly, the Underwriting Agreement should not be relied upon as constituting a description of the state of affairs of any of the parties thereto
or their affiliates at the time it was entered into or otherwise.
A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1.1 and is
incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference. The description of the Underwriting Agreement contained herein is qualified in its entirety by the full text of such exhibit.
From time to time, certain of the underwriters and their affiliates have provided, or may in the future provide, various investment banking,
commercial banking, financial advisory, brokerage and other services to us and our affiliates for which services they have received, and may in the future receive, customary fees and expense reimbursement. The underwriters and their affiliates may,
from time to time, engage in transactions with and perform services for us in the ordinary course of their business for which they may receive customary fees and reimbursement of expenses. Affiliates of certain of the underwriters are lenders under
our revolving credit facility and could receive a portion of the proceeds from the Common Units offering by us pursuant to the repayment of outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility with such proceeds.
