Acquired remaining 50% interest in our 4.3 million barrel Linden terminal in January 2015 Completed expansion of South Texas Crude Oil Pipeline System in February 2015, which increased capacity to 340,000 bpd Finished construction of 400,000 barrels of additional storage at our Corpus Christi North Beach Terminal in the third quarter 2015 Recently completed four of our six projects to increase distillate and propane supply throughout our Central East System and some projects that connect our Oakville to Corpus Christi 16-inch crude oil pipeline to a few major refineries in the Corpus Christi, Texas area Signed letter of intent with PMI to develop project to transport LPGs from the U.S. into northern Mexico, expect to finalize agreements in the fourth quarter 2015 Taking steps to increase capacity and flexibility of our ammonia pipeline and build out additional capacity at our St. James terminal Third Quarter 2015 Highlights 17% increase in storage lease revenues Base business experienced improved throughputs despite challenging market conditions Coverage ratio: 1.05 times, sixth consecutive quarter in excess of 1.0 times We expect fourth quarter 2015 earnings per unit to be in the range of $0.45 to $0.55 Achieving 2015 Goals - Strong 3rd Quarter Results and Strategic Capital Spending Program Position NuStar for Continued Distribution Coverage in 2015 & 2016 7
Building on Our Strengths - Stable, Diversified Business Foundation for Future Growth Contracted fee-based storage and pipeline assets provide stable cash flows, delivering approximately 98% of 2015 segment EBITDA Storage terminals effectively full ~75% of pipeline revenues are based on refinery/fertilizer plant feedstock supply or refinery production delivery ~25% of pipeline revenues are Eagle Ford volumes to area refineries or Corpus Christi, TX docks ~95% of tariffs are FERC-based, which are adjusted annually for inflation Diverse and high-quality customer base composed of large integrated oil companies, national oil companies and refiners 1 – 94% committed through take or pay contracts or through structural exclusivity (uncommitted lines serving refinery customers with no competition) 8
In early January, we purchased the remaining 50% interest in our Linden terminal for $142.5 million Sole ownership of the terminal strengthens our presence in the New York Harbor and the East Coast market and may provide opportunities for expansion Terminal is strategically located in the New York Harbor with: 4.3 million barrels of refined products storage capacity, primarily gasoline, jet fuel and fuel oil A deep-water ship dock and one barge dock that are used for inbound and outbound shipments Inbound pipeline connections to the Colonial and Sun pipelines, and an outbound connection to the Buckeye Pipeline Direct connection to our adjacent, 100%-owned terminal, which has 389,000 barrels of refined product storage capacity and receives shipments via truck and pipeline and delivers product via its eight-bay truck loading rack Executing on Growth – Closed on an Acquisition in First Quarter 2015 9
Pipeline Segment
2015 segment EBITDA expected to be $25 to $35 million1 higher than 2014 mainly due to increased pipeline throughputs from Eagle Ford expansion projects completed in 2014 and 2015, increased loading capabilities at our Corpus Christi North Beach Terminal and higher annual FERC tariff adjustments. 2016 segment EBITDA should be comparable to slightly higher than 2015 as we expect increased volumes on our refined product pipelines to be offset by lower projected Eagle Ford crude volumes.

Storage Segment
1 – Please see slides 30 and 31 for reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP measure Storage Segment EBITDA Benefiting from Linden Terminal Acquisition 2015 segment EBITDA expected to be $40 to $50 million1 higher than 2014, primarily due to incremental EBITDA from the Linden terminal acquisition, a full-year benefit from 8 million barrels of renewed storage in St. Eustatius and Pt. Tupper, Canada, favorable renewals at several terminals, expected insurance proceeds related to our Linden terminal and strong throughputs at our Corpus Christi North Beach facility during the first half of the year. 2016 segment EBITDA expected to decrease $15 to $351 million compared to 2015 mostly due to the negative impact of lower Eagle Ford shale production on expected throughput volumes into our Corpus Christi North Beach terminal, lower expected revenue from some of foreign terminals and the absence of the expected 2015 insurance proceeds next year.

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 financial measures provide investors an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of the partnership’s assets and/or the cash that the business is generating. None of these financial measures are 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.
