Related Party Assets and Liabilities

Assets and liabilities with related parties appearing onin the Consolidated Balance Sheets are detailed in the table below. This table identifies the various components of related party assets and liabilities, including those associated with leases and deferred revenue on minimum volume commitments. If MPC fails to meet its minimum committed volumes, MPC will pay MPLX a deficiency payment based on the terms of the agreement. The deficiency amounts received under these agreements (excluding payments received under agreements classified as sales-type leases) are recorded as Current liabilities - related parties. In many cases, MPC may then apply the amount of any such deficiency payments as a credit for volumes in excess of its minimum volume commitment in future periods under the terms of the applicable agreements. MPLX recognizes related party revenues for the deficiency payments when credits are used for volumes in excess of minimum quarterly volume commitments, where it is probable the customer will not use the credit in future periods or upon the expiration of the credits. The use or expiration of the

6. Net Income Per Limited Partner Unit

Net income per unit applicable to common units is computed by dividing net income attributable to MPLX LP less income allocated to participating securities by the weighted average number of common units outstanding.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 20222023 and 2021,June 30, 2022, MPLX had participating securities consisting of common units, certain equity-based compensation awards, Series A preferred units, and Series B preferred units and also had dilutive potential common units consisting of certain equity-based compensation awards. Potential common units omitted from the diluted earnings per unit calculation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 andJune 30, 2022 and 2021 were less than 1 million.

7. Segment Information

MPLX’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the chief executive officer (“CEO”) of its general partner. The CEOCODM reviews MPLX’s discrete financial information, makes operating decisions, assesses financial performance and allocates resources on a type of service basis. MPLX has 2two reportable segments: L&S and G&P. Each of these segments is organized and managed based upon the nature of the products and services it offers.

L&S – gathers, transports, stores and distributes crude oil, refined products, and other hydrocarbon-based products.products and renewables. Also includes the operation of refining logistics, fuels distribution and inland marine businesses, terminals, rail facilities, and storage caverns.
G&P – gathers, processes and transports natural gas; and transports, fractionates, stores and markets NGLs.

Our CEOCODM evaluates the performance of our segments using Segment Adjusted EBITDA. Amounts included in net income and excluded from Segment Adjusted EBITDA include: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) interest and other financial costs; (iii) impairment expense; (iv) income/(loss) from equity method investments; (v)(iv) distributions and adjustments related to equity method investments; (v) gain on sales-type leases; (vi) impairment expense; (vii) noncontrolling interests; and (vii)(viii) other adjustments, as deemed necessary.applicable.

Long-lived assets used in operations are assessed for impairment whenever changes in facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying valueWe capitalize interest as part of the assets may not be recoverable based oncost of major projects during the expected undiscounted future cash flow of an asset group. For purposes of impairment evaluation, long-lived assets must be grouped atconstruction period. Capitalized interest totaled $4 million and $7 million for the lowest levelthree and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and $3 million and $5 million for which independent cash flows can be identified, which is at least at the segment levelthree and in some cases for similar assets in the same geographic region where cash flows can be separately identified. If the sum of the undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of an asset group, fair value is calculated, and the carrying value is written down if greater than the calculated fair value.

Level 3 instruments relate to an embedded derivative liability for a natural gas purchase commitment embedded in a keep-whole processing agreement. The fair value calculation for these Level 3 instruments used significant unobservable inputs including: (1) NGL prices interpolated and extrapolated due to inactive markets ranging from $0.72$0.54 to $1.98$1.34 per gallon with a weighted average of $0.98$0.72 per gallon and (2) the probability of renewal of 100 percent for the five-year renewal term of the gas purchase commitment and related keep-whole processing agreement. Increases or decreases in the fractionation spread result in an increase or decrease in the fair value of the embedded derivative liability, respectively.

MPLX’s fair value assessment incorporates a variety of considerations, including (1) the duration of the instruments, (2) MPC’s investment-grade credit rating, and (3) the historical incurrence of and expected future insignificance of bad debt expense, which includes an evaluation of counterparty credit risk. MPLX believes the carrying values of its current assets and liabilities approximate fair value. The recorded value of the amounts outstanding under the bank revolving credit facility, if any, approximates fair value due to the variable interest rate that approximates current market rates. Derivative instruments are recorded at fair value, based on available market information (see Note 10).

The fair value of MPLX’s debt is estimated based on prices from recent market non-binding indicative quotes. The debt fair values are consideredtrade activity and is categorized in Level 3 measurements.of the fair value hierarchy.

Embedded Derivative - MPLX has a natural gas purchase commitment embedded in a keep-whole processing agreement with a producer customer in the Southern Appalachian region expiring in December 2027. The customer has the unilateral option to extend the agreement for 1one five-year term through December 2032. For accounting purposes, the natural gas purchase commitment and the term extending option have been aggregated into a single compound embedded derivative. The probability of the customer exercising its option is determined based on assumptions about the customer’s potential business strategy decision points that may exist at the time they would elect whether to renew the contract. The changes in fair value of this compound embedded derivative are based on the difference between the contractual and index pricing, the probability of the producer customer exercising its option to extend, and the estimated favorability of these contracts compared to current market conditions. The changes in fair value are recorded in earnings through Purchased product costs onin the Consolidated Statements of Income. For further information regarding the fair value measurement of derivative instruments, see Note 9. As of June 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the estimated fair value of this contract was a liability of $92$53 million and $108$61 million, respectively.

Certain derivative positions are subject to master netting agreements, therefore, MPLX has elected to offset derivative assets and liabilities that are legally permissible to be offset. As of June 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, there were no derivative assets or liabilities that were offset onin the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The impact of MPLX’s derivative instruments on its Consolidated Balance Sheets is summarized below:

We make a distinction between realized or unrealized gains and losses on derivatives. During the period when a derivative contract is outstanding, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When a derivative contract matures or is settled, the previously recorded unrealized gain or loss is reversed, and the realized gain or loss of the contract is recorded. The impact of MPLX’s derivative contracts not designated as hedging instruments and the location of gains and losses recognized onin the Consolidated Statements of Income is summarized below:

Contract Balances

Our receivables are primarily associated with customer contracts. Payment terms vary by product or service type, however the period between invoicing and payment is not significant. Included within the receivables are balances related to commodity sales on behalf of our producer customers, for which we remit the net sales price back to the producer customers upon completion of the sale. These balances are included in Receivables, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Under certain of our contracts, we recognize revenues in excess of billings which we present as contract assets. Contract assets typically relate to deficiency payments related to minimum volume commitments and aid in construction agreements where the revenue recognized and MPLX’s rights to consideration for work completed exceeds the amount billed to the customer. Contract assets are included in Other current assets and Other noncurrent assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Under certain of our contracts, we receive payments in advance of satisfying our performance obligations, which are recorded as contract liabilities. Contract liabilities, which we refer topresent as Deferred revenue and Long-term deferred revenue, typically relate to advance payments for aid in construction agreements and deferred customer credits associated with makeup rights and minimum volume commitments. Related to minimum volume commitments, breakage is estimated and recognized into service revenue in instances where it is probable the customer will not use the credit in future periods. We classify contract liabilities as current or long-term based on the timing of when we expect to recognize revenue.

Receivables, net primarily relate to our commodity sales. Portions of the Receivables, net balance are attributed to the sale of commodity product controlled by MPLX prior to sale while a significant portion of the balance relates to the sale of commodity product on behalf of our producer customers. The sales and related Receivables, net are commingled and excluded from the table below. MPLX remits the net sales price back to our producer customers upon completion of the sale. Each period end, certain amounts within accounts payable relate to our payments to producer customers. Such amounts are not deemed material at period end as a result of when we settle with each producer.

See Note 4 for additional information on where related party lease assets are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Capital expenditures related to assets subject to sales-type lease arrangements were $18 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, these amounts are reflected as Additions to property, plant and equipment on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, third party lease assets are less than $1 million and are included within the Receivables, net and Other noncurrent assets captions within the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

During the second quarter of 2021, reimbursements for projects and changes to minimum volume commitments at certain L&S locations were agreed to between MPLX and MPC. These reimbursements and minimum volume commitments relate to the storage, transportation and terminal services agreements between MPLX and MPC at these locations and required the embedded leases within these agreements to be reassessed under ASC 842. As a result of the reassessment, certain leases were reclassified from an operating lease to a sales-type lease. Accordingly, the underlying assets previously shown on the Consolidated Balance Sheets associated with the sales-type leases were derecognized and the net investment in the lease (i.e., the sum of the present value of the future lease payments and the unguaranteed residual value of the assets) was recorded as a lease receivable during the respective periods. See Note 4 for the location of lease receivables and unguaranteed residual assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The difference between the net book value of the underlying assets and the net investment in the lease has been recorded as a Contribution from MPC in the Consolidated Statements of Equity given the impacted storage and terminal services agreements are related to a common control transaction. During the second quarter of 2021, MPLX derecognized approximately $421 million of property, plant and equipment, recorded a lease receivable of approximately $519 million, recorded an unguaranteed residual asset of approximately $14 million with the difference recorded as a deemed Contribution from MPC of $112 million.

15.14. Commitments and Contingencies

MPLX is the subject of, or a party to, a number of pending or threatened legal actions, contingencies and commitments involving a variety of matters, including laws and regulations relating to the environment. Some of these matters are discussed below. For matters for which MPLX has not recorded a liability, MPLX is unable to estimate a range of possible loss because the issues involved have not been fully developed through pleadings, discovery or court proceedings. However, the ultimate resolution of some of these contingencies could, individually or in the aggregate, be material.

Environmental Matters

MPLX is subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the environment. These laws generally provide for control of pollutants released into the environment and require responsible parties to undertake remediation of hazardous waste disposal sites. Penalties may be imposed for non-compliance.

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, accruedAccrued liabilities for remediation totaled $27$17 million at both June 30, 2023 and $23 million, respectively.December 31, 2022. It is not presently possible to estimate the ultimate amount of all remediation costs that might be incurred or the penalties, if any, that may be imposed.

MPLX is involved in environmental enforcement matters arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome and impact to MPLX cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the resolution of these environmental matters will not, individually or collectively, have a material adverse effect on its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

GuaranteesOther Legal Proceedings

OverIn July 2020, Tesoro High Plains Pipeline Company, LLC (“THPP”), a subsidiary of MPLX, received a Notification of Trespass Determination from the years, MPLX has sold various assetsBureau of Indian Affairs (“BIA”) relating to a portion of the Tesoro High Plains Pipeline that crosses the Fort Berthold Reservation in North Dakota. The notification demanded the immediate cessation of pipeline operations and assessed trespass damages of approximately $187 million. After subsequent appeal proceedings and in compliance with a new order issued by the BIA, in December 2020, THPP paid approximately $4 million in assessed trespass damages and ceased use of the portion of the pipeline that crosses the property at issue. In March 2021, the BIA issued an order purporting to vacate the BIA's prior orders related to THPP’s alleged trespass and direct the Regional Director of the BIA to reconsider the issue of THPP’s alleged trespass and issue a new order. In April 2021, THPP filed a lawsuit in the normalDistrict of North Dakota against the United States of America, the U.S. Department of the Interior and the BIA (together, the “U.S. Government Parties”) challenging the March 2021 order purporting to vacate all previous orders related to THPP’s alleged trespass. On February 8, 2022, the U.S. Government Parties filed their answer and counterclaims to THPP’s suit claiming THPP is in continued trespass with respect to the pipeline and seek disgorgement of pipeline profits from June 1, 2013 to present, removal of the pipeline and remediation. We intend to vigorously defend ourselves against these counterclaims.

MPLX is also a party to a number of other lawsuits and other proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate outcome and impact to MPLX cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the resolution of these other lawsuits and proceedings will not, individually or collectively, have a material adverse effect on its business. Certainconsolidated financial position, results of theoperations or cash flows.

Guarantees related agreements contain performance and general guarantees, including guarantees regarding inaccuracies in representations, warranties, covenants and agreements, and environmental and general indemnifications that require MPLX to perform upon the occurrenceindebtedness of a triggering event or condition. These guarantees and indemnifications are part of the normal course of selling assets. MPLX is typically not able to calculate the maximum potential amount of future payments that could be made under such contractual provisions because of the variability inherent in the guarantees and indemnities. Most often, the nature of the guarantees and indemnities is such that there is no appropriateequity method for quantifying the exposure because the underlying triggering event has little or no past experience upon which a reasonable prediction of the outcome can be based.investees

We hold a 9.19 percent indirect interest in a joint venture (“Dakota Access”) that owns and operates the Dakota Access Pipeline and Energy Transfer Crude Oil Pipeline projects, collectively referred to as the Bakken Pipeline system or DAPL. In 2020, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (the “D.D.C.”) ordered the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (“Army Corps”), which granted permits and an easement for the Bakken Pipeline system, to prepare an environmental impact statement (“EIS”) relating to an easement under Lake Oahe in North Dakota. The D.D.C. later vacated the easement. Completion of theThe EIS may now behas been delayed asand the Army Corps engages with the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe on the tribe’s reasons for withdrawing ascurrently expects to release a cooperating agency with respect to preparation of the EIS.draft EIS in 2023.

In May 2021, the D.D.C. denied a renewed request for an injunction to shut down the pipeline while the EIS is being prepared. In June 2021, the D.D.C. issued an order dismissing without prejudice the tribes’ claims against the Dakota Access Pipeline. The litigation could be reopened or new litigation challenging the EIS, once completed, could be filed. The pipeline remains operational.

We have entered into a Contingent Equity Contribution Agreement whereby MPLX LP, along with the other joint venture owners in the Bakken Pipeline system, has agreed to make equity contributions to the joint venture upon certain events occurring to allow the entities that own and operate the Bakken Pipeline system to satisfy their senior note payment obligations. The senior notes were issued to repay amounts owed by the pipeline companies to fund the cost of construction of the Bakken Pipeline system.

If the pipeline were temporarily shut down, MPLX would have to contribute its 9.19 percent pro rata share of funds required to pay interest accruing on the notes and any portion of the principal that matures while the pipeline is shutdown. MPLX also expects to contribute its 9.19 percent pro rata share of any costs to remediate any deficiencies to reinstate the permit and/or return the pipeline into operation. If the vacatur of the easement permit results in a permanent shutdown of the pipeline, MPLX would have to contribute its 9.19 percent pro rata share of the cost to redeem the bonds (including the one percent redemption premium required pursuant to the indenture governing the notes) and any accrued and unpaid interest. As of June 30, 2022,2023, our maximum potential undiscounted payments under the Contingent Equity Contribution Agreement were approximately $170 million.

Other Legal Proceedings

In July 2020, Tesoro High Plains Pipeline Company, LLC (“THPP”), a subsidiary of MPLX, received a Notification of Trespass Determination from the Bureau of Indian Affairs (“BIA”) relating to a portion of the Tesoro High Plains Pipeline that crosses the Fort Berthold Reservation in North Dakota. The notification demanded the immediate cessation of pipeline operations and assessed trespass damages of approximately $187 million. On appeal, the Assistant Secretary - Indian Affairs issued an order vacating the BIA’s trespass order and remanded to the Regional Director for the BIA Great Plains Region to issue a new decision based on specific criteria. On December 15, 2020, the Regional Director of the BIA issued a new trespass notice to THPP, finding that THPP was in trespass and assessing trespass damages of approximately $4 million (including interest), which has been paid. The order also required that THPP immediately cease and desist use of the portion of the pipeline that crosses the property at issue. THPP has complied with the Regional Director’s December 15, 2020 notice. In March 2021, THPP received a copy of an order purporting to vacate all orders related to THPP’s alleged trespass issued by the BIA between July 2, 2020 and January 14, 2021. The order directs the Regional Director of the BIA to reconsider the issue of THPP’s alleged trespass and issue a new

On April 23, 2021, THPP filed a lawsuit in the District of North Dakota against the United States of America, the U.S. Department of the Interior and the BIA (together, the “U.S. Government Parties”) challenging the March order purporting to vacate all previous orders related to THPP’s alleged trespass.

On February 8, 2022, the U.S. Government Parties filed their answer to THPP’s suit, asserting counterclaims for trespass and ejectment. The U.S. Government Parties claim THPP is in continued trespass with respect to the pipeline and seek disgorgement of pipeline profits from June 1, 2013 to present, removal of the pipeline and remediation. We intend to vigorously defend ourselves against these counterclaims. We continue to work towards a settlement of this matter with holders of the property rights at issue.

MPLX is also a party to a number of other lawsuits and other proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate outcome and impact to MPLX cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the resolution of these other lawsuits and proceedings will not, individually or collectively, have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Contractual Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time and in the ordinary course of business, MPLX and its affiliates provide guarantees of MPLX’s subsidiaries payment and performance obligations in the G&P segment. Certain natural gas processing and gathering arrangements require MPLX to construct new natural gas processing plants, natural gas gathering pipelines and NGL pipelines and contain certain fees and charges if specified construction milestones are not achieved for reasons other than force majeure. In certain cases, certain producers may have the right to cancel the processing arrangements if there are significant delays that are not due to force majeure. As of June 30, 2022,2023, management does not believe there are any indications that MPLX will not be able to meet the construction milestones, that force majeure does not apply or that such fees and charges will otherwise be triggered.

Current Economic Environment

Through the first six months of 2022, we continueIn an effort to see recovery in the environment in which our business operates. The increase in global demand for refined products and global commodity supply constraints have contributed to improved throughputs and higher natural gas and NGL prices. We are unable to predict the potential effects that resurgences of COVID-19 or the continuance or escalation of the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and related sanctions, may have on our financial position and results. It remains uncertain how long these conditions may last or how severe they may become.

In 2022, data indicates a sharp rise inease inflation in support of its monetary policy goals, the U.S.Federal Reserve has raised interest rates multiple times throughout 2022 and globally. Current and future inflationary effects may be driven by, among other things, supply chain disruptions, governmental stimulus or fiscal policies and increasing demand for certain goods and services as recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic continues. We have observed higher costs for labor and materials used in our business.2023. We cannot predict the effect of higher interest rates, the concern of a recession, or the impact of inflation and fuel prices on demand for our products and services. In response to this business environment, MPLX remains focused on executing its strategic priorities of strict capital discipline, embeddingfostering a low-cost culture, and portfolio optimization.optimization. Also, to the extent permitted by regulations and our existing agreements, many of which provide for inflation-based adjustments, we have increased the fees we charge our customers to reflect higher levels of inflation.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

Our management uses a variety of financial and operating metrics to analyze our performance. These metrics are significant factors in assessing our operating results and profitability and include the non-GAAP financial measures of Adjusted EBITDA, DCF, adjusted free cash flow (“Adjusted FCF”), and free cash flowAdjusted FCF after distributions. The amount of Adjusted EBITDA and DCF generated is considered by the board of directors of our general partner in approving MPLX’s cash distributions. Management also utilizes Segment Adjusted EBITDA in evaluating the financial performance of our segments. The use of this measure allows investors to understand how management evaluates financial performance to make operating decisions and allocate resources.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted for: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) provision/(benefit)provision for income taxes; (iii)(ii) interest and other financial costs; (iii) depreciation and amortization; (iv) impairment expense; (v) incomeincome/(loss) from equity method investments; (vi)(v) distributions and adjustments related to equity method investments; (vi) gain on sales-type leases; (vii) impairment expense; (viii) noncontrolling interests; and (viii)(ix) other adjustments, as deemed necessary.applicable. We also use DCF, which we define as Adjusted EBITDA adjusted for: (i) deferred revenue impacts; (ii) sales-type lease payments, net of income; (iii) net interest and other financial costs; (iv) net maintenance capital expenditures; (v) equity method investment capital expenditures paid out; and (vi) other adjustments as deemed necessary. Segment Adjusted EBITDA represents Adjusted EBITDA attributable to the reportable segments.

We define Adjusted FCF as net cash provided by operating activities adjusted forfor: (i) net cash used in investing activities; (ii) cash contributions from MPC; (iii) cash contributions from noncontrolling interests and (iv)(iii) cash distributions to noncontrolling interests. We define free cash flowAdjusted FCF after distributions as Adjusted FCF less base distributions to common and preferred unitholders.

We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, DCF, Adjusted FCF and free cash flowAdjusted FCF after distributions provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA and DCF are net income and net cash provided by operating activities while the GAAP measure

Table of Contents
most directly comparable to Adjusted FCF and free cash flowAdjusted FCF after distributions is net cash provided by operating activities. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered alternatives to GAAP net income or net cash provided by operating activities as they have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income and net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, because non-GAAP financial measures may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definitions may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and DCF to their most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, see the Results of Operations section.Operations. For a reconciliation of Adjusted FCF and free cash flowAdjusted FCF after distributions to their most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, see the Liquidity and Capital resources section.Resources.

Comparability of our Financial Results

During the normal course of business, we amend or modify our contractual agreements with customers. These amendments or modifications require the agreements to be reassessed under ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (“ASC 842,842”), which can impact the classification of revenues or costs associated with the agreement. These reassessments may impact the comparability of our financial results.

Net cash used in investing activities increased $166$80 million in the first six months of 20222023 compared to the same period of 2022, due to higher capital spending. The increase in the first six months of 2021, primarily due to2023 was partially offset by higher capital spending and an increase in contributions to equity method investments for the first half of 2022, which included thea $60 million contribution to our Bakken Pipeline joint venture to fund our share of a scheduled debt repayment by the joint venture.

FinancingNet cash used in financing activities were an $1,916decreased $260 million use of cash in the first six months of 20222023 compared to the same period of 2022. The decrease was driven by net borrowings in the first half of 2023 as compared to net repayments in the first half of 2022, resulting in a $2,251 milliondecreased use of cash of $854 million. There was also lower spending on the unit repurchase program of $135 million in the first six monthshalf of 2021.2023 compared to the same period of 2022.

Debt and Liquidity Overview

On July 7, 2022, MPLX entered into a new five-year credit agreement (the “New MPLX Credit Agreement”) to replace the previous $3.5 billion credit facility that was scheduled to expire July 2024. The New MPLX Credit Agreement, among other things, provides for a $2 billion unsecured revolving credit facility that matures in July 2027. The New MPLX Credit Agreement provides for letter of credit issuing capacity under the facility of $150 million. Letter of credit issuing capacity is included in, not in addition to, the $2 billion borrowing capacity of the New MPLX Credit Agreement. The financial covenants of the New MPLX Credit Agreement are substantially the same as those contained in the previous credit agreement. Borrowings under the New MPLX Credit Agreement bear interest, at MPLX’s election, at either the Adjusted Term SOFR or the Alternate Base Rate, both as defined in the New MPLX Credit Agreement, plus an applicable margin.

On March 14, 2022,February 9, 2023, MPLX issued $1.5$1.6 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.950notes, consisting of $1.1 billion principal amount of 5.00 percent senior notes due March 20522033 (the “2052“2033 Senior Notes”) in an underwritten public offering.and $500 million principal amount of 5.65 percent senior notes due 2053 (the “2053 Senior Notes”). The 20522033 Senior Notes were offered at a price to the public of 98.98299.170 percent of par with interest payable semi-annually in arrears, commencing on September 14, 2022.1, 2023. The net proceeds2053 Senior Notes were usedoffered at a price to repay amounts outstanding under the intercompany loan agreementpublic of 99.536 percent of par with MPC and the MPLX revolving credit facility.interest payable semi-annually in arrears, commencing on September 1, 2023.

AsOn February 15, 2023, MPLX used $600 million of June 30, 2022, we had $20.1the net proceeds from the offering of the 2033 Senior Notes and 2053 Senior Notes described above to redeem all of the outstanding Series B preferred units. On March 13, 2023, MPLX used the remaining proceeds from the offering, and cash on hand, to redeem all of MPLX’s and MarkWest’s $1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of 4.50 percent senior notes outstanding. The increase compared to year-end 2021 resulted from the issuance of the 2052 Senior Notes, as discussed above.due July 2023, at par, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Our intention is to maintain an investment-grade credit profile. As of June 30, 2022,2023, the credit ratings on our senior unsecured debt were at or above investment grade level as follows:
Rating AgencyRating
Moody’sBaa2 (stable outlook)
Standard & Poor’sBBB (stable outlook)
FitchBBB (stable outlook)

The ratings reflect the respective views of the rating agencies.agencies and should not be interpreted as a recommendation to buy, sell or hold our securities. Although it is our intention to maintain a credit profile that supports an investment grade rating, there is no assurance that these ratings will continue for any given period of time. The ratings may be revised or withdrawn entirely by the rating agencies if, in their respective judgments, circumstances so warrant.

The New MPLX Credit Agreement contains certain representations and warranties, affirmative and restrictive covenants and events A rating from one rating agency should be evaluated independently of default that we consider to be usual and customary for an agreement of this type. The financial covenant requires MPLX to maintain a ratio of Consolidated Total Debt as of the end of each fiscal quarter to Consolidated EBITDA (both as defined in the New MPLX Credit Agreement) for the prior four fiscal quarters of no greater than 5.0 to 1.0 (or 5.5 to 1.0 during the six-month period following certain acquisitions). Consolidated EBITDA is subject to adjustments for certain acquisitions completed and capital projects undertaken during the relevant period. Other covenants restrict us and/or certain of our subsidiariesratings from incurring debt, creating liens on assets and entering into transactions with affiliates. As of June 30, 2022, we were in compliance with the covenants, including the financial covenant with a ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated EBITDA of 3.54 to 1.0.other rating agencies.

The agreements governing our debt obligations do not contain credit rating triggers that would result in the acceleration of interest, principal or other payments solely in the event that our credit ratings are downgraded. However, any downgrades in the credit ratings of our senior unsecured debt ratings to below investment grade ratings could, among other things, increase the applicable interest rates and other fees payable under the New MPLX Credit Agreement and may limit our ability to obtain future financing, including refinancing existing indebtedness.

expenditure requirements, contractual obligations, and quarterly cash distributions. Our material future obligations include interest on debt, payments of debt principal, purchase obligations including contracts to acquire plant, property and equipment, and our operating leases and service agreements. We may also, from time to time, repurchase our senior notes or preferred units in the open market, in tender offers, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise in such volumes, at market prices and upon such other terms as we deem appropriate and execute unit repurchases under our unit repurchase program. MPC manages our cash and cash equivalents on our behalf directly with third-party institutions as part of the treasury services that it provides to us under our omnibus agreement. From time to time, we may also consider utilizing other sources of liquidity, including the formation of joint ventures or sales of non-strategic assets.

The MPLX Credit Agreement contains certain representations and warranties, affirmative and restrictive covenants and events of default that we consider to be usual and customary for an agreement of this type. The financial covenant requires MPLX to maintain a ratio of Consolidated Total Debt as of the end of each fiscal quarter to Consolidated EBITDA (both as defined in the MPLX Credit Agreement) for the prior four fiscal quarters of no greater than 5.0 to 1.0 (or 5.5 to 1.0 during the six-month period following certain acquisitions). Consolidated EBITDA is subject to adjustments for certain acquisitions completed and capital projects undertaken during the relevant period. Other covenants restrict us and/or certain of our subsidiaries from incurring debt,

creating liens on assets and entering into transactions with affiliates. As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with this financial covenant with a ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated EBITDA of 3.5 to 1.0, as well as all other covenants contained in the MPLX Credit Agreement.

Equity and Preferred Units Overview

Balance at June 30, 20221,012,204,900 

Unit Repurchase Program

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we repurchased approximately 4 million common units at an average cost per unit of $32.48 per unit and paid $135 million of cash. As of June 30, 2022, we had repurchased a total of approximately 29 million units at an average cost per unit of $27.97 per unit for a total of $798 million under the unit repurchase program. As of June 30, 2022, we had $202 million remaining under the existing repurchase authorization.

On August 2, 2022 MPLXwe announced the board authorization for the repurchase of directors approvedup to an incrementaladditional $1.0 billion unit repurchase authorization.of MPLX common units held by the public. The authorization has no expiration date. We may utilize various methods to effect the repurchases, which could include open market repurchases, negotiated block transactions, accelerated unit repurchases, tender offers or open market solicitations for units, some of which may be effected through Rule 10b5-1 plans. The timing and amount of future repurchases, if any, will depend upon several factors, including market and business conditions, and such repurchases may be discontinued at any time.

No units were repurchased during the six months ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, we had $846 million remaining under the repurchase authorization.

Redemption of the Series B Preferred Units

On February 15, 2023, MPLX exercised its right to redeem all 600,000 outstanding units of 6.875 percent Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Units (the “Series B preferred units”). MPLX paid unitholders the Series B preferred unit redemption price of $1,000 per unit. See Note 5 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for more information.

Distributions on the Series B preferred units were payable semi-annually in arrears on the 15th day, or the first business day thereafter, of February and August of each year up to and including February 15, 2023. In accordance with these terms, MPLX made a final cash distribution of $21 million to Series B preferred unitholders on February 15, 2023, in conjunction with the redemption.

Distributions

We intend to pay a minimum quarterly distribution to the holders of our common units of $0.2625 per unit, or $1.05 per unit on an annualized basis, to the extent we have sufficient cash from our operations after the establishment of cash reserves and the payment of costs and expenses, including reimbursements of expenses to our general partner. The amount of distributions paid under our policy and the decision to make any distributions is determined by our general partner, taking into consideration the terms of our partnership agreement. Such minimum distribution would equate to $266$263 million per quarter, or $1,063$1,051 million per year, based on the number of common units outstanding at June 30, 2022.2023.

On July 26, 2022,25, 2023, MPLX declared a cash distribution for the second quarter of 2022,2023, totaling $714$776 million, or $0.7050$0.775 per common unit. This distribution will be paid on August 12, 202214, 2023 to common unitholders of record on August 5, 2022.4, 2023. Although our partnership agreement requires that we distribute all of our available cash each quarter, we do not otherwise have a legal obligation to distribute any particular amount per common unit. This rate will also be received by Series A preferred unitholders.

Series B preferred unitholders are entitled to receive a fixed distribution of $68.75 per unit, per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15, or the first business day thereafter, up to and including February 15, 2023. After February 15, 2023, the holders of Series B preferred units are entitled to receive cumulative, quarterly distributions payable in arrears on the 15th day of February, May, August and November of each year, or the first business day thereafter, based on a floating annual rate equal to the three-month LIBOR plus 4.652 percent, in each case assuming a distribution is declared by the board of directors. Accordingly, a cash distribution payment totaling $21 million will be paid to Series B unitholders on August 15, 2022.

MPLX has the right to redeem some or all of the Series B preferred units, at any time, on or after February 15, 2023. MPLX will pay unitholders the Series B preferred unit redemption price of $1,000 per unit plus any accumulated and unpaid distributions up to the redemption date.

The allocation of total cash distributions is as follows for the three and six months ended June 30, 20222023 and 2021.June 30, 2022. MPLX’s distributions are declared subsequent to quarter end; therefore, the following table represents total cash distributions applicable to the period in which the distributions were earned.

Capital Expenditures

Our operations are capital intensive, requiring investments to expand, upgrade, enhance or maintain existing operations and to meet environmental and operational regulations. Our capital requirements consist of maintenancegrowth capital expenditures and growthmaintenance capital expenditures. Examples of maintenance capital expenditures are those made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets, to maintain the existing operating capacity of our assets and to extend their useful lives, or other capital expenditures that are incurred in maintaining existing system volumes and related cash flows. In contrast, growthGrowth capital expenditures are those incurred for acquisitions or capital improvements that we expect will increase our operating capacity for volumes gathered, processed, transported or fractionated, decrease operating expenses within our facilities or increase operating income over the long term. Examples of growth capital expenditures include costs to develop or acquire additional pipeline, terminal, processing or storage capacity. In general, growth capital includes costs that are expected to generate additional or new cash flow for MPLX. In contrast, maintenance capital expenditures are those made to replace partially or fully depreciated assets, to maintain the existing operating capacity of our assets and to extend their useful lives, or other capital expenditures that are incurred in maintaining existing system volumes and related cash flows.

MPLX’s initial capital investment plan for 2022, totaled $9002023 totals $950 million, net of reimbursements, which includes growth capital of $700$800 million and maintenance capital of $140 million and a $60 million investment in an unconsolidated affiliate for the repayment of our 9.19 percent indirect share of the Bakken Pipeline joint venture’s debt due in 2022.$150 million. Growth capital expenditures and investments in affiliates during the six months ended June 30, 20222023 were primarily for gas gathering, processing plants and de-ethanizationgathering projects in our Bakken,the Marcellus and SouthwestPermian basins, and the expansion of our crude gathering systems and long-haul pipeline investments in the Permian and Bakken basins. Spending for the period also included the $60 million contributionas well as additions to our Bakken Pipeline joint venture to fund our share of a debt repayment by the joint venture.brown water marine fleet. We continuously evaluate our capital plan and make changes as conditions warrant.

Contractual Cash Obligations

As of June 30, 2022,2023, our contractual cash obligations included third-party and related party debt, finance and operating lease obligations, purchase obligations for services and to acquire property, plant and equipment, and other liabilities. During the six months ended June 30, 2022,2023, our third-party long-term debt obligations increased by $1.2 billion, primarily$600 million due to the issuance of the $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.950 percent 2052 Senior Notes discussed above. A portionand use of the issuance was used to repay amounts outstanding on the MPLX Credit Agreement.proceeds described above in Liquidity and Capital Resources-Debt and Liquidity Overview. There were no other material changes to our contractual obligations outside the ordinary course of business since December 31, 2021.2022.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Off-balance sheet arrangements comprise those arrangements that may potentially impact our liquidity, capital resources and results of operations, even though such arrangements are not recorded as liabilities under U.S. GAAP. Our off-balance sheet arrangements are limited to indemnities and guarantees that are described in Note 15. 14 of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and indemnities as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Although these arrangements serve a variety of our business purposes, we are not dependent on them to maintain our liquidity and capital resources, and we are not aware of any circumstances that are reasonably likely to cause the off-balance sheet arrangements to have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and capital resources.

Transactions with Related Parties

At June 30, 2022,2023, MPC owned our non-economic general partnership interest and held approximately 6465 percent of our outstanding common units.

We provide MPC with crude oil, and product pipeline, and trucking transportation services based on regulated tariff/contracted rates, as well as storage, terminal, fuels distribution, and inland marine transportation services based on contracted rates. We also have agreements with MPC under which we receive fees for operating MPC’s retained pipeline assets, providing management services for the marine business, and operating certain of MPC’s equity method investments. MPC provides us with certain services related to information technology, engineering, legal, accounting, treasury, human resources and other administrative services under employee services and omnibus services agreements.

Environmental Matters and Compliance Costs

We have incurred and may continue to incur substantial capital, operating and maintenance, and remediation expenditures as a result of environmental laws and regulations. If these expenditures, as with all costs, are not ultimately reflected in the prices of our products and services, our operating results will be adversely affected. We believe that substantially all of our competitors must comply with similar environmental laws and regulations. However, the specific impact on each competitor may vary depending on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the age and location of its operating facilities.

During the sixmonths ended June 30, 2022, environmental remediation costs increased due to a release of crude oil on our pipeline near Edwardsville, IllinoisAs previously disclosed in March of 2022. There have been no additional material changes to our environmental matters and compliance costs since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.2022, actual expenditures may vary as the number and scope of environmental projects are revised as a result of improved technology or changes in regulatory requirements. There have been no significant changes to our environmental matters and compliance costs during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Critical Accounting Estimates

As of June 30, 2022,2023, there have been no significant changes to our critical accounting estimates since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks related to the volatility of commodity prices. We employ various strategies, including the potential use of commodity derivative instruments, to economically hedge the risks related to these price fluctuations. We are also exposed to market risks related to changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2022,2023, we did not have any open financial or commodity derivative instruments to hedge the economic risks related to interest rate fluctuations or the volatility of commodity prices, respectively;fluctuations; however, we continually monitor the market and our exposure and may enter into these arrangements in the future.

Commodity Price Risk

The information about commodity price risk for the three and six months ended June 30, 20222023 does not differ materially from that discussed in Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.2022.

Outstanding Derivative Contracts and Sensitivity Analysis

See Notes 9 and 10 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for more information about the fair value measurement of our derivative instruments, including the natural gas embedded derivative, as well as the amounts recorded in our consolidated balance sheets and statements of income. We do not designate any of our commodity derivative instruments as hedges for accounting purposes.

Our open derivative positions at June 30, 2023 will expire at various times through 2023. We prepared a sensitivity analysis to estimate our exposure to market risk associated with our derivative instruments. Based on our open net positions at June 30, 2023, a 10 percent change in quoted market prices of our derivative instruments, assuming all other factors remain constant, could change the fair value of our derivative instruments and Income before income taxes by $2.0 million. This analysis may differ from actual results.

Interest Rate Risk and Sensitivity Analysis

Sensitivity analysis of the effect of a hypothetical 100-basis-point change in interest rates on outstanding third-party debt, excluding finance leases, is provided in the following table. Fair value of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued interest approximate carrying value and are relatively insensitive to changes in interest rates due to the short-term maturity of the instruments. Accordingly, these instruments are excluded from the table.

(4)    MPLX had no outstanding borrowings on the MPLX Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2022.2023.

At June 30, 2022,2023, our portfolio of third‑party debt consisted of fixed-rate instruments and also provides foroutstanding borrowings, if any, under the MPLX Credit Agreement. The fair value of our fixed-rate debt is relatively sensitive to interest rate fluctuations. Our sensitivity to interest rate declines and corresponding increases in the fair value of our debt portfolio unfavorably affects our results of operations and cash flows only when we elect to repurchase or otherwise retire fixed-rate debt at prices above carrying value. Interest rate fluctuations generally do not impact the fair value of borrowings under our MPLX Credit Agreement, but may affect our results of operations and cash flows.

See Note 9 toin the unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information on the fair value of our debt.

Part II – Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are the subject of, or a party to, a number of pending or threatened legal actions, contingencies and commitments involving a variety of matters, including laws and regulations relating to the environment. While it is possible that an adverse result in one or more of the lawsuits or proceedings in which we are a defendant could be material to us, based upon current information and our experience as a defendant in other matters, we believe that these lawsuits and proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Item 103 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC requires disclosure of certain environmental matters when a governmental authority is a party to the proceedings and such proceedings involve potential monetary sanctions, unless we reasonably believe that the matter will result in no monetary sanctions, or in monetary sanctions, exclusive of interest and costs, of less than $300,000.a specified threshold. We use a threshold of $1 million for this purpose.

There have been no material changes to the legal matters previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021,2022, or in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.2023.
