Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On May 5, 2009, Holly Energy Partners, L.P. (the Partnership) entered into an
Underwriting Agreement (the Underwriting Agreement) with Goldman, Sachs & Co. and UBS
Securities LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the
Underwriters), with respect to the issuance and sale in an underwritten public offering
(the Common Units Offering) by the Partnership of 2,000,000 common units representing
limited partner interests in the Partnership (the Common Units) at $27.80 per common
unit. The Partnership has granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional
300,000 Common Units. The Common Units to be sold in the Common Units Offering were registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), pursuant to a
registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-155537). The closing of the Common Units
Offering is expected to occur on May 8, 2009 (the Closing Date). Legal opinions related
to the Common Units are filed as Exhibits 5.1 and 8.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
In the Underwriting Agreement, the Partnership 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. A copy of the
Underwriting Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is
incorporated herein by reference. The description of the Underwriting Agreement in this Current
Report on Form 8-K is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Underwriting Agreement.
The Partnership intends to use the net proceeds from the Common Units Offering of
approximately $53.2 million (or approximately $61.2 million if the Underwriters exercise in full
their over-allotment option) and the general partner contribution described in the following
paragraph, (i) to repay $28.0 million of bank debt incurred to fund its purchase of a 25% interest
in the joint venture (the remaining 75% of which is owned by Plains All American Pipeline, L.P.)
that owns the Salt Lake City Pipeline, (ii) to repay bank debt incurred to date to fund capital
projects, which consist primarily of the expansion of the Partnerships Artesia, New Mexico to El
Paso, Texas refined products pipeline and terminal system (referred to as the South
System) and (iii) for general partnership purposes.
In connection with the Common Units Offering, on the Closing Date, HEP Logistics Holdings,
L.P., the general partner of the Partnership, will contribute $1.1 million (or $1.2 million if the
Underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase additional Common Units) to the Partnership
in order to maintain its 2% general partner interest in the Partnership.
