8 Recent Developments
9 Divested Remaining 50% Interest in Asphalt JV Transaction closed on February 26, 2014 As a result of this transaction: Our financial liability related to asphalt refining and margin-based operations is reduced significantly Earnings will no longer be burdened by the volatility and losses generated by the asphalt joint venture NuStar can concentrate fully on growing our more stable storage and pipeline fee-based operations At closing, our $250 million seven-year revolving credit facility converted to a $190 million term loan $190 million term loan to be reduced to $175 million by December 31, 2014 and $150 million by September 30, 2015 Cash flows generated by Asphalt JV to be used to pay down term loan To be paid in full no later than September 2019 NuStar to continue providing credit support for the JV of up to $150 million, in the form of guarantees and letters of credit Support begins declining two years after closing date, terminates in September 2019
10 Completed Construction of New Dock at Corpus Christi North Beach Terminal Construction completed two months earlier than anticipated First vessel loaded on February 13, 2014 New state-of-the-art dock more than doubled our loading capacity We now have the ability to load crude oil simultaneously on all three docks at or above the capacity of our competitors Additional capacity will allow us to handle all new volume associated with Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the South Texas Crude Oil Pipeline expansion project, as well as any additional volumes shipped on our system Favorable location near mouth of channel that supports large Panamax-class vessels
NuStar Overview 11 Leased Five Million Barrels of Idle Tankage at our St. Eustatius Terminal Last week, we signed a long-term agreement to lease five million barrels of idle storage tankage at our St. Eustatius terminal facility.

19 Storage Segment Update
20 Expect 2014 Storage Segment EBITDA to be comparable with 2013 Adjusted Storage Segment EBITDA ($ in Millions)1 Storage Contract Renewals (% as 01/21/2014) Our storage segment should benefit from the completion of our second unit train at St. James Terminal in November 2013, from additional throughput at our new Corpus Christi dock and from the recent storage agreement entered into at our St. Eustatius terminal. These benefits are expected to be offset by reduced profit sharing proceeds on our first St. James unit train and by weak demand for storage primarily on the West Coast 1 – Please see slide 30 for a reconciliation of Storage Segment EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, Operating Income 1 – Please see slide 31 for a reconciliation of Adjusted Storage Segment EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, Operating Income < 1 Year 1 to 3 Years 3 to 5 Years > 5 Years 30% 36% 19% 15% 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 $177 $208 $242 $256 $279 $287 $277

Management uses these financial measures because they are widely accepted financial indicators used by investors to compare partnership performance. In addition, management believes that these measures provide investors an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of the partnership's assets and the cash that the business is generating. None of these financial measures, which are not defined in GAAP are intended to represent cash flows from operations for the period, nor are they presented as an alternative to net income or income from continuing operations. They should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for a measure of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of segment reporting, we do not allocate general and administrative expenses to our reported operating segments because those expenses relate primarily to the overall management at the entity level. Therefore, EBITDA reflected in the segment reconciliations exclude any allocation of general and administrative expenses consistent with our policy for determining segmental operating income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. The following is a reconciliation of operating income to EBITDA for the Pipeline Segment: Year Ended December 31, The reconciliation below shows projected incremental operating income to projected incremental EBITDA for the Pipeline Segment: Year Ended December 31, 2014
