Exhibit 99.1
DAKOTA PLAINS HOLDINGS, INC.
Unaudited Financial Statements of the Acquired Companies
For the Nine-Month Period Ended September 30, 2014
On December 5, 2014, Dakota Plains Holdings, Inc. (“DAKP”, “our” or “we”) entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Membership Interest Purchase Agreement”) with Dakota Plains Transloading, LLC (“Dakota Plains Transloading”), Dakota Plains Sand, LLC (“Dakota Plains Sand”), Dakota Plains Marketing, LLC (“Dakota Plains Marketing”) and Petroleum Transport Solutions, LLC (“PTS”). Pursuant to the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, in exchange for $43 million and the Operational Override, as defined below (1) Dakota Plains Transloading, our wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired all of the limited liability company membership interests of Dakota Petroleum Transport Solutions, LLC owned by PTS, (2) Dakota Plains Sand, our wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired all of the limited liability company membership interests of DPTS Sand, LLC owned by PTS and (3) Dakota Plains Marketing, our wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired all of the limited liability company membership interests of DPTS Marketing LLC owned by PTS. As a result of such transactions, Dakota Plains Transloading became the sole member of Dakota Petroleum Transport Solutions, LLC, Dakota Plains Sand became the sole member of DPTS Sand, LLC and Dakota Plains Marketing became the sole member of DPTS Marketing LLC.
In addition to $43 million in cash paid to PTS at closing, we agreed to pay to PTS an amount equal to $0.225 per barrel of crude oil arriving at the current transloading facility located on the DAKP property in New Town, North Dakota, up to a maximum of 80,000 barrels of crude oil per day (for a per day maximum payment of Eighteen Thousand Dollars ($18,000)) through December 31, 2026 (the “Operational Override”). In the event such Operational Override payments, in the aggregate, are less than $10 million, we are obligated to pay PTS the difference on or before January 31, 2027. Alternatively, at any time we may pay PTS an amount equal to the then-present value (using a nine percent (9%) discount rate) of remaining Operational Override payments assuming maximum volume for the period between the pre-payment date and December 31, 2026. If we elect to make such early payment, we will have no further obligation related to the Operational Override.
The Membership Interest Purchase Agreement contains certain representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification obligations of the parties.
In connection with the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, we entered into an Indemnification and Release Agreement dated December 5, 2014, with World Fuel Services Corporation (“WFS”) (the “Indemnification and Release Agreement”). Pursuant to the Indemnification and Release Agreement, WFS, on behalf of itself and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, agreed to indemnify DAKP, Dakota Petroleum Transport Solutions, LLC, DPTS Marketing LLC, and each of their respective officers, managers, directors, employees, affiliates, members, and stockholders, for third party claims in connection with, relating to, or otherwise arising from the train car derailment that occurred in Lac-Mégantic, Quebec, on July 6, 2013 (the “Derailment”). In addition, DAKP, Dakota Plains Transloading and Dakota Plains Marketing, on behalf of itself and each such entity’s direct and indirect subsidiaries, agreed to indemnify WFS and WFS’s officers, managers, directors, employees, affiliates, members, and stockholders for (i) fifty percent (50%) of the documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any WFS party as a result of or arising out of certain obligations to railcar lessors; and (ii) fifty percent (50%) of the documented out-of-pocket defense costs and legal expenses incurred by any WFS party in connection with the Derailment. DAKP’s and its affiliates’ total exposure under the indemnification is limited to $10 million in the aggregate. All of the indemnification obligations are net of any insurance proceeds received. To support its indemnification obligations, DAKP placed $3 million in escrow.
In connection with the indemnification, each of DAKP and WFS, on its behalf and on behalf of its affiliates, released the other party and its affiliates from any claims arising in connection with the Derailment, other than those for which indemnification is provided under the Indemnification and Release Agreement.
Pursuant to a Guaranty and Security Agreement, dated December 5, 2014 (the “Seller Guaranty and Security Agreement”), made by Dakota Plains Transloading, Dakota Plains Sand, Dakota Plains Marketing, DAKP and certain subsidiaries of DAKP, DAKP’s obligations under Section 2.2(b) of the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement in respect of the Operational Override, DAKP’s obligations in the Indemnification and Release Agreement and the obligations of DPTS Marketing under five Amended and Restated Railcar Sublease Agreements between DPTS Marketing and Western Petroleum Company are guaranteed by Dakota Plains Transloading, Dakota Plains Sand, Dakota Plains Marketing, DAKP and certain subsidiaries of DAKP, and are secured by a second priority lien in all of the assets of such parties.
The acquisition was funded through cash on hand, proceeds from the recent dissolution of our marketing and trucking joint ventures and a $57.5 million credit facility provided pursuant to a Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement, dated December 5, 2014 (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among Dakota Plains Transloading, Dakota Plains Sand, Dakota Plains Marketing, DAKP, the lenders that become from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), and SunTrust Bank, as administrative agent for the lenders party from time to time thereto (the “Administrative Agent”). Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Lenders will extend revolving credit facilities from time to time and term loans to Dakota Plains Transloading, Dakota Plains Sand and Dakota Plains Marketing (the “Borrowers”) to provide (i) funds for the closing in connection with the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement; (ii) refinancing for existing indebtedness; (iii) funds for future permitted acquisitions; (iv) funds for the Borrowers’ working capital and capital expenditures, and for other general corporate purposes; and (v) other permitted purposes.
The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of $20 million (the “Revolving Loan Facility”) and one or more tranches of term loans in the aggregate amount of $37.5 million (the “Term Loans” and together with the Revolving Loan Facility, the “Credit Facility”). A portion of the Revolving Loan Facility is available for the issuance of letters of credit, and the making of any such issuance of letters of credit will reduce the amount available under the Revolving Loan Facility.
The Revolving Loan Facility matures on December 5, 2017. All borrowings under the Revolving Loan Facility must be repaid in full upon maturity. Outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Loan Facility may be re-borrowed and repaid without penalty. The first tranche of Term Loans is payable in quarterly installments with the first payment due on March 31, 2015 and a maturity date of December 5, 2017. Repayment of the second tranche of Term Loans is due on December 5, 2015. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Borrowers have the right to increase the commitments to the Revolving Loan Facility and/or the Term Loans in an aggregate amount not to exceed (x) $25,000,000 (such increased commitments, “Tranche B Replacement Commitments”) plus (y) solely after the full amount of all Tranche B Replacement Commitments have been made, $40,000,000, at any time on or before the final maturity date of the relevant facility. In such event, among other conditions, any new lenders would be approved by the Administrative Agent, and the Borrowers would be required to satisfy all conditions to credit extensions in the Credit Agreement, including by being in pro forma compliance with all financial covenants and delivering certain documents, opinions and certificates to the Administrative Agent in connection with the increased commitments.
Following are the unaudited financial statements of the acquired companies for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014.
