PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

TESORO LOGISTICS LP

TESORO LOGISTICS FINANCE CORP.

Offers to Exchange (the “exchange offers”)

$350,000,000 principal amount of their 5.875% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “2020 Exchange Notes”), which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for any and all of their outstanding 5.875% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “2020 Notes”).

$550,000,000 principal amount of their 6.125% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Exchange Notes” and collectively with the 2020 Exchange Notes, the “exchange notes”), which have been registered under the Securities Act, for any and all of their outstanding 6.125% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”, collectively with the 2020 Notes, the “outstanding notes” and the outstanding notes collectively with the exchange notes, the “notes”).

We are conducting the exchange offers in order to provide you with an opportunity to exchange your unregistered notes for freely tradable notes that have been registered under the Securities Act.

The Exchange Offers

• We will exchange all outstanding notes that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn for an equal principal amount of the applicable series of exchange notes that are freely tradable.

• You may withdraw tenders of outstanding notes at any time prior to the expiration date of the applicable exchange offer.

• Each exchange offer expires at 12:00 a.m. midnight, New York City time, on                     , 2013, unless extended. We do not currently intend to extend the expiration date for either exchange offer.

• The exchange of the relevant outstanding notes for the related exchange notes in the exchange offers will not be a taxable event for United States federal income tax purposes.

• The terms of the relevant exchange notes to be issued in the exchange offers are substantially identical to the related outstanding notes, except that the exchange notes will be freely tradable.

Results of the Exchange Offers

The exchange notes may be sold in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions or through a combination of such methods. We do not plan to list the exchange notes on a national market.

All untendered outstanding notes will continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in the outstanding notes and in the related indenture. In general, the outstanding notes may not be offered or sold, unless registered under the Securities Act, except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Other than in connection with the exchange offers, we do not currently anticipate that we will register the outstanding notes under the Securities Act.

See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 19 for a discussion of certain risks that you should consider before participating in the applicable exchange offer.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the exchange notes to be distributed in the exchange offers or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account pursuant to the exchange offers must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of exchange notes received in exchange for outstanding notes where such outstanding notes were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. See “Plan of Distribution.”

The date of this prospectus is                     , 2013.

INDUSTRY AND MARKET DATA

The market data and certain other statistical information used in and incorporated by reference into this prospectus are based on independent industry publications, government publications or other published independent sources. Some data are also based on our good faith estimates. Although we believe these third-party sources are reliable, we have not independently verified the information and cannot guarantee its accuracy and completeness.

NOTICE REGARDING PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The financial information presented in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus contains (i) the combined financial results of TLLP Predecessor, our predecessor for accounting purposes, as of and for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010 and for the period from January 1, 2011 through April 25, 2011 and (ii) the consolidated financial results of TLLP for the period from April 26, 2011 (the date TLLP commenced operations) through December 31, 2011, as of December 31, 2011, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012, as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2013 and as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2013. The TLLP Predecessor information includes the financial results of the initial net assets contributed by Tesoro during the initial public offering through April 25, 2011.

In 2012, we entered into the following transactions with Tesoro and TLGP pursuant to which we acquired from Tesoro the following assets:

• effective April 1, 2012, we entered into a transaction (the “Martinez Acquisition”) to purchase the Martinez crude oil marine terminal assets (collectively, the “Martinez Terminal”) for total consideration of $75.0 million;

• effective September 14, 2012, we entered into a transaction (the “Long Beach Acquisition”) to purchase the Long Beach marine terminal assets and related short-haul pipelines, including the Los Angeles short-haul pipelines (collectively, the “Long Beach Assets”), for total consideration of $210.0 million; and

• effective November 15, 2012, we entered into a transaction (the “Anacortes Acquisition”) to purchase the Anacortes rail car unloading facility assets (collectively, the “Anacortes Rail Facility”) for total consideration of $180.0 million.

These transactions (collectively referred to as “Acquisitions from Tesoro”) were transfers between entities under common control. Accordingly, the information contained herein of the TLLP Predecessor and TLLP has been retrospectively adjusted to include the historical results of the assets acquired in the Acquisitions from Tesoro prior to the effective date of each acquisition. There was no financial statement impact related to the Anacortes Rail Facility prior to 2012 as the costs of construction were recorded in 2012. We refer to the TLLP Predecessor, and, prior to each acquisition date, the Martinez Terminal, the Long Beach Assets and the Anacortes Rail Facility collectively as our “Predecessor(s).” Our financial information includes the historical results of our Predecessors prior to the effective date of each acquisition and the results of TLLP beginning April 26, 2011, the date TLLP commenced operations. Our financial results may not be comparable as our Predecessors recorded revenues, general and administrative expenses and financed operations differently than TLLP. Please see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2012 Annual Report and “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our March 31 Quarterly Report and our June 30 Quarterly Report (each as defined under “Incorporation by Reference”), each incorporated herein by reference, for further information.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information of TLLP incorporated by reference in this prospectus reflects adjustments to the historical statements of combined consolidated operations of TLLP to give effect to (i) the Chevron Acquisition and (ii) the Equity Offering, and adjustments to the

iii

historical combined consolidated balance sheet of TLLP to give effect to (i) the Chevron Acquisition, (ii) the Carson Assets Acquisition, including the Revolver Amendment and borrowings under our amended revolving credit facility and the issuance of equity to TLGP to fund the Carson Assets Acquisition, (iii) the Refinancing Transactions and (iv) the payment of estimated fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated statement of operations data incorporated by reference in this prospectus has not been adjusted for the Carson Assets Acquisition as it constitutes an acquisition of assets pursuant to Rule 11-01(d) of Regulation S-X and separate pre-acquisition financial statements for the Carson Terminal Assets were not required and have not been prepared. Therefore, we do not have the necessary historical information to adjust the statements of operations data to include historical information of the Carson Terminal Assets. Accordingly, we have also not adjusted the statements of operations data to give effect to the Refinancing Transactions as they are directly related to the Carson Assets Acquisition.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “intend,” “foresee,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “attempt,” “appears,” “forecast,” “outlook,” “estimate,” “project,” “potential,” “may,” “will,” “are likely” or other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, which are generally not historical in nature.

Although we believe the assumptions upon which these forward-looking statements are made are reasonable, any of these assumptions could prove to be inaccurate and the forward-looking statements based on these assumptions could be incorrect. The matters discussed in these forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results and trends to differ materially from those made, projected, or implied in or by the forward-looking statements depending on a variety of uncertainties or other factors including, but not limited to:

• the risk of contract cancellation, non-renewal or failure to perform by Tesoro’s customers, and Tesoro’s inability to replace such contracts and/or customers;

iv

• Tesoro’s ability to remain in compliance with the terms of its outstanding indebtedness;

• the timing and extent of changes in commodity prices and demand for Tesoro’s refined products;

• actions of customers and competitors;

• changes in our cash flow from operations;

• state and federal environmental, economic, health and safety, energy and other policies and regulations, including those related to climate change and any changes therein, and any legal or regulatory investigations, delays or other factors beyond our control;

• operational hazards inherent in refining operations and in transporting and storing crude oil and refined products;

• earthquakes or other natural disasters affecting operations;

• changes in capital requirements or in execution of planned capital projects;

• the availability and costs of crude oil, other refinery feedstocks and refined products;

• risks related to labor relations and workplace safety;

• changes in insurance markets impacting costs and the level and types of coverage available; and

• political developments.

These factors are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any of our forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could have material adverse effects on our future results. Our future results will depend upon various other risks and uncertainties, including those described elsewhere in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus under the heading “Risk Factors.” Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements after the date they are made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

This summary highlights selected information contained elsewhere in and incorporated by reference into this prospectus. You should carefully read the entire prospectus and those documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus, including “Risk Factors” and the combined consolidated financial statements and related notes incorporated by reference into this prospectus, before making an investment decision. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information and financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in and incorporated by reference into this prospectus. You should consider, among other things, the matters set forth in “Risk Factors” before deciding to participate in the applicable exchange offer.

Except where noted for the presentation of certain pro forma financial information, the business description presented in this “Summary” section gives effect to the Carson Assets Acquisition, which closed on June 1, 2013, and the Chevron Acquisition, which closed on June 19, 2013.

The Company

We are a fee-based, growth-oriented Delaware limited partnership formed by Tesoro to own, operate, develop and acquire logistics assets. Our logistics assets are integral to the success of Tesoro’s refining and marketing operations and are used to gather crude oil and to distribute, transport and store crude oil and refined products. Our assets are categorized into a Crude Oil Gathering segment and a Terminalling, Transportation and Storage segment. Our common units trade on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the symbol “TLLP.”

We generate revenue by charging fees for gathering, transporting and storing crude oil and for terminalling, transporting and storing crude oil and refined products. Since we do not own any of the crude oil or refined products that we handle nor engage in the trading of crude oil or refined products, we have minimal direct exposure to risks associated with commodity price fluctuations. However, these risks indirectly influence our activities and results of operations over the long term through their effects on our customers’ operations. For the year ended December 31, 2012 and the six months ended June 30, 2013, 91% and 91%, respectively, of our total revenue was derived from Tesoro under various long-term, fee-based commercial agreements that generally include minimum volume commitments.

For the year ended December 31, 2012 and the six months ended June 30, 2013, giving pro forma effect to the Chevron Acquisition, we would have had revenues of approximately $206.6 million and $133.2 million, respectively.

Our Assets and Operations

Our operations are divided into two segments: our crude oil gathering segment and our terminalling, transportation and storage segment. For the year ended December 31, 2012 and the six months ended June 30, 2013, giving pro forma effect to the Chevron Acquisition, we would have had revenues of $72.4 million and $42.6 million, respectively, from our crude oil gathering segment and $134.2 million and $90.6 million, respectively, from our terminalling, transportation and storage segment.

Crude Oil Gathering. Our crude oil gathering system in North Dakota and Montana, which we refer to as our High Plains system, includes approximately 700 miles of common carrier pipeline (the “High Plains Pipeline”), approximately 40,000 barrels per day (“bpd”) of truck-based crude oil gathering, and related storage assets. This system gathers and transports crude oil produced in the Williston Basin, including production from the Bakken Shale formation. We refer to this area, a significant portion of which is serviced by our High Plains system, as the Bakken Shale/Williston Basin area. During the year ended December 31, 2012 and the six months

1

ended June 30, 2013, pipeline volumes averaged 66,615 bpd and 81,445 bpd, respectively. We expanded the capacity of our pipelines to increase our ability to deliver volumes to Tesoro’s North Dakota refinery in 2012 (which recently increased its capacity from 58,000 bpd to 68,000 bpd).

Terminalling, Transportation and Storage. Our Terminalling, Transportation and Storage assets include the following:

• the Northwest Product Pipeline, a 760-mile common carrier products pipeline running from Salt Lake City, Utah to Spokane, Washington, and a 5-mile jet fuel pipeline to the Salt Lake City International Airport. This system is the primary source of petroleum product supply to southern Idaho, and a major supplier of refined products to eastern Washington, with delivery volumes on the system averaging approximately 87,000 bpd in 2012;

• refined products and crude oil marketing and storage terminals, including:

• sixteen refined products and storage terminals in the western and midwestern U.S. with aggregate truck, barge and pipeline throughput capacity of approximately 540,000 bpd and approximately 2.5 million barrels of total dedicated commercial storage capacity; and

• two storage facilities in southern California and Salt Lake City, Utah with approximately 2.8 million barrels of total storage capacity;

• two marine terminals, comprised of our Martinez Terminal with barge delivery capacity of approximately 145,000 bpd and our Long Beach marine terminal with barge delivery capacity of approximately 200,000 bpd;

• a rail-car unloading facility capable of handling a 100-car unit train with permitted capacity to deliver up to an average of 50,000 bpd per year of Bakken crude oil to Tesoro’s Washington refinery; and

• pipelines which transport products and crude oil from Tesoro’s refineries in Salt Lake City and Los Angeles to nearby facilities, including the Northwest Product Pipeline.

Our Commercial Agreements with Tesoro

All of our operations are strategically located within Tesoro’s refining and marketing supply chain and substantially all of our revenues are generated by providing services to Tesoro’s refining and marketing businesses under various long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with Tesoro.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, And Director Independence—Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Commercial Agreements” in our 2012 Annual Report, “Item 5. Other Information” in our March 31 Quarterly Report and our June 30 Quarterly Report and our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 3, 2013, each incorporated herein by reference.

In addition to our commercial agreements with Tesoro, we are also party to an omnibus agreement and an operational services agreement with Tesoro. Under the omnibus agreement, which was most recently amended effective June 1, 2013, Tesoro has agreed not to engage in the business of owning or operating crude oil or refined products pipelines, terminals or storage facilities in the United States that are not integral to a Tesoro refinery, subject to certain exceptions. In addition, under the omnibus agreement, Tesoro has granted us a right of first offer to acquire certain of its logistics assets, including terminals, pipelines, docks, storage facilities and other related logistic assets located in Alaska, California and Washington, to the extent it decides to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of those assets. The consideration to be paid by us for logistics assets, if any, offered to us in the future by Tesoro, as well as the consummation and timing of any acquisition by us of these assets, would depend upon, among other things, the timing of Tesoro’s decision to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of these assets and our ability to successfully negotiate a price and other purchase terms for these assets. Management of our general partner will negotiate the terms of any acquisition with management of Tesoro, subject to approval of our general partner’s board of directors and, if our general partner’s board of directors so authorizes, the conflicts committee of our general partner’s board of directors. The omnibus agreement also addresses our payment of a fee to Tesoro for the provision of various centralized corporate services, Tesoro’s reimbursement of us for certain capital expenditures, and Tesoro’s indemnification of us for certain matters, including environmental, title and tax matters. Please read “Items 1. and 2. Business and Properties—Overview—Other Agreements with Tesoro” and “Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, And Director Independence—Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Omnibus Agreement” of our 2012 Annual Report and our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 3, 2013, each incorporated herein by reference.

Under our operational services agreement with Tesoro, which was most recently amended effective June 1, 2013, we periodically reimburse Tesoro for the provision of certain support services to us in support of our assets, and we also pay Tesoro an annual fee for support services performed by certain of Tesoro’s field-level employees in support of our pipelines, terminals and storage facilities. Please read “Items 1. and 2. Business and

Properties—Overview—Other Agreements with Tesoro” and “Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, And Director Independence—Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Operational Services Agreement” of our 2012 Annual Report and our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 3, 2013, each incorporated herein by reference.

Business Strategies

Our primary business objectives are to maintain stable cash flows and to increase our quarterly cash distribution per unit over time. We intend to accomplish these objectives by executing the following strategies:

• Focus on Stable, Fee-Based Business. We intend to focus on opportunities to provide committed, fee-based logistics services to Tesoro and third parties. We believe that our long-term, fee-based contracts with Tesoro will enhance the stability of our cash flows and minimize our direct exposure to commodity price fluctuations.

• Pursue Attractive Organic Expansion Opportunities. We intend to evaluate opportunities to make capital investments to expand our existing asset base that may arise from the growth of Tesoro’s refining and marketing business or from increased third-party activity in our areas of operations. We intend to focus on organic growth opportunities that complement our existing asset base or provide attractive returns in new areas within our geographic footprint. With expected production growth in the Bakken Shale/Williston Basin area, we continue to evaluate opportunities to expand our High Plains system to provide critical takeaway capacity for crude oil producers. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, we spent $17.4 million on projects to increase volumes on our High Plains system, and we estimate that we will spend an additional $55.0 million in the remainder of 2013 to further increase volumes to over 150,000 bpd in 2014.

We also evaluate opportunities to expand our terminal operations to meet rising demand in Tesoro’s core areas of operation. As a result of our strategic relationship with Tesoro, if Tesoro requires expanded logistics infrastructure and capabilities to support its refining and marketing operations, we expect to be favorably positioned to construct and operate the necessary logistics assets. For example, Tesoro recently completed an expansion of its North Dakota refinery from 58,000 to 68,000 bpd and is utilizing our High Plains system to deliver the incremental crude oil supply. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, we spent $8.9 million on projects to grow terminalling volumes, and we estimate that we will spend an additional $13.0 million in the remainder of 2013 to further increase volumes 15,000 bpd.

• Grow Through Strategic Acquisitions. We plan to pursue accretive acquisitions of complementary assets from Tesoro as well as from third parties. In order to provide us with initial acquisition opportunities, Tesoro has granted us a right of first offer to acquire certain logistics assets that it retained following our initial public offering. As Tesoro executes its growth strategy, which may include the acquisition of additional assets, we believe we are well-positioned to acquire any associated logistics assets as those opportunities arise. For example, we acquired from TRMC the Martinez Terminal and related short-haul pipelines effective April 1, 2012, the Long Beach Assets effective September 14, 2012, the Anacortes Rail Facility effective November 15, 2012 and the Carson Assets Acquisition effective June 1, 2013. See “—The Transactions.” Our third-party acquisition strategy is focused on logistics assets in the western half of the United States where we believe our knowledge of the market will provide us with a competitive advantage. For example, we completed the Chevron Acquisition effective June 19, 2013. We intend to pursue these third-party acquisition opportunities independently as well as jointly with Tesoro.

• Optimize Existing Asset Base and Pursue Third-Party Volumes. We seek to enhance the profitability of our existing assets by pursuing opportunities to add Tesoro and third-party volumes, improve operating efficiencies and increase utilization. Historically, Tesoro operated its logistics assets

4

primarily in support of its refining and marketing business. As a result, we have available capacity on our High Plains system and in many of our refined product terminals where we believe we have the ability to increase utilization with minimal capital investment. On our High Plains system, we continue to evaluate several opportunities to increase utilization, including receipt and delivery interconnections with third-party pipeline systems.

For example, in 2012, we established tariffs to the Bridger pipeline at Richey, Montana and an interconnect to the Rangeland crude oil terminal at Dry Fork, North Dakota. As a result of the strategic locations of many of our refined product terminals, we are also evaluating the potential demand for increased access to our terminals where we have available capacity. We also continue to explore various strategic initiatives to improve operating efficiencies at some of our terminals that would increase capacity for additional volumes from Tesoro and potential third parties.

Competitive Strengths

We believe we are well positioned to achieve our primary business objectives and execute our business strategies based on the following competitive strengths:

• Long-Term, Fee-Based Contracts. Currently, we generate a substantial majority of our revenue under long-term, fee-based contracts with Tesoro. We believe that these contracts promote cash flow stability and minimize our direct exposure to commodity price fluctuations, although these risks indirectly influence our activities and results of operations over the long term. Under these contracts, Tesoro has committed to utilize our assets to ship, deliver, store or transport a minimum volume of crude oil or refined products.

• Relationship with Tesoro. We have a strategic relationship with Tesoro, which we believe will provide us with a stable base of cash flows as well as opportunities for growth. All of our logistics assets are directly linked to Tesoro’s refining and marketing operations. Our High Plains system currently delivers all of the crude oil processed by Tesoro’s North Dakota refinery and our refined product terminals provide critical storage and distribution infrastructure for six of Tesoro’s refineries. We believe we are well-positioned to partner with Tesoro in the construction or acquisition of new logistics infrastructure associated with Tesoro’s refining and marketing growth initiatives. We also expect to benefit from Tesoro’s extensive operational, commercial and technical expertise, as well as its industry relationships throughout the midstream and downstream value chain, as we look to optimize and expand our existing asset base.

• Assets Positioned in Areas of High Demand. Our High Plains system is located in the Williston Basin, one of the most prolific onshore oil producing basins in North America, and gathers and transports production from the Bakken Shale formation. The Williston Basin has emerged as one of the most attractive resource plays in North America, with estimated technically recoverable reserves of approximately 7.38 billion barrels (according to United States Geological Survey estimates published in April 2013). We expect producers to invest substantial capital to develop the Bakken Shale and other emerging plays in the Williston Basin. A development of this scale will require substantial investment in pipeline and storage infrastructure, and we believe that our existing footprint will give us a strategic advantage to capitalize on this opportunity.

In addition, most of our terminalling assets are located in the Mountain and Pacific regions of the United States, which the Energy Information Administration expects to see greater growth rate in refined products demand than the U.S. national average over the next 24 years, with the Mountain region expected to have the highest refined products demand growth rate of any U.S. region over the same period. We believe there is an opportunity to capitalize on this increased demand for refined products in our markets by optimizing our existing available capacity and pursuing acquisitions and other growth opportunities. For example, our recently announced High Plains pipeline reversal project

5

is expected to drive higher throughput on the pipeline by optimizing the pipeline’s capacity to meet shipper demand to transport crude oil from areas of increasing production to new outlets. The project is expected to cost approximately $35.0 million and be completed in 2014.

• Experienced Management Team. Our management team has significant experience in the management and operation of logistics assets and the execution of expansion and acquisition strategies. Our management team includes some of the most senior officers of Tesoro.

• Financial Flexibility. We believe we will have the financial flexibility to execute our growth strategy through the available capacity under our revolving credit facility and our ability to access the debt and equity capital markets. As of June 30, 2013, giving pro forma effect to the Transactions, we would have had approximately $574.7 million of borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility.

Our Relationship with Tesoro

One of our principal strengths is our relationship with Tesoro. Tesoro is the fourth largest independent refiner in the United States by crude capacity and, through its subsidiaries, subsequent to the acquisition of BP’s Southern California refining and marketing business, operates six refineries that serve markets in Alaska, Arizona, California, Idaho, Minnesota, Nevada, North Dakota, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. Tesoro also sells transportation fuels and convenience products through a network of over 2,200 retail stations, primarily under the Tesoro^®, Shell^®, ARCO^® and USA Gasoline^TM brands. For the year ended December 31, 2012 and the six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, Tesoro had consolidated revenues of approximately $29.8 billion and $16.2 billion and operating income of $1.6 billion and $557 million, which exclude amounts attributable to discontinued operations. Tesoro had net earnings of $743 million and $320 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 and the six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and, as of June 30, 2013, had consolidated total assets of approximately $13.7 billion. Tesoro Corporation’s common stock trades on the NYSE under the symbol “TSO.”

Tesoro owns and operates substantial crude oil and refined products logistics assets and maintains a significant interest in us through its ownership of approximately 40% of our outstanding partnership units (including a 2% general partner interest) as of June 30, 2013, as well as all of our incentive distribution rights. Given Tesoro’s significant ownership in and its intent to continue to use us as the primary vehicle to grow its logistics operations, we believe Tesoro continues to be motivated to promote and support the successful execution of our business strategies. In particular, we believe it will be in Tesoro’s best interest for it to contribute additional logistics assets to us over time and to facilitate organic growth opportunities and accretive acquisitions from third parties, although Tesoro is under no obligation to contribute any assets to us or accept any offer for its assets that we may choose to make. We believe the terms and conditions of all of our agreements with Tesoro are generally no less favorable to either party than those that could have been negotiated with unaffiliated parties with respect to similar services.

The Transactions

Please see “Certain Definitions” for the definitions of certain terms used in this section.

The Refinancing Transactions

We used the proceeds of the 2021 Notes offering (i) to repay the borrowings under our revolving credit facility that were used to fund the cash portion of the consideration for the Carson Assets Acquisition, as described below and (ii) to pay a portion (totalling $6.0 million) of the fees and expenses related to the offering of the 2021 Notes, including initail purchasers’ discounts and commissions and professional fees. We paid the remaining $3.0 million of fees and expenses related to the offering of the 2021 Notes from cash on hand.

Carson Assets Acquisition

On June 1, 2013, we acquired through TLGP six marketing and storage terminals located in Southern California and certain assets and properties related thereto from TRMC in exchange for total consideration of $640 million, comprised of $544 million of cash financed with borrowings under our revolving credit facility and the issuance of equity to TLGP with a combined fair value of $96 million. The equity was comprised of 2% general partner units to maintain TLGP’s 2% general partner interest in us and 98% common units representing slightly more than a 3% limited partner interest in us.

The Carson Terminal Assets consist of:

• a crude oil storage facility in Carson, California, including five above-ground storage tanks;

• a marketing terminal in Bloomington, California, including a covered four-lane truck loading rack, nine active above-ground storage tanks and three additive/oily water tanks;

• a storage terminal and rack location in Long Beach, California, including 31 above-ground storage tanks, six 10,000-gallon additive tanks, a six-lane truck rack together with a storage terminal, including two double-bottom storage tanks and related pipelines;

• a storage terminal and rack location in Signal Hill, California, including 23 above-ground storage tanks and a five-lane truck rack;

• a marketing terminal in San Diego, California, including a covered three-lane truck loading rack, nine above-ground storage tanks and an equipment shop;

• a marketing terminal in South Gate, California, including a covered eight-lane truck loading rack, nine active above-ground storage tanks, two additive tanks, one horizontal tank, four out-of-service tanks, a four-bay storage building and two offloading stations; and

• certain related assets used in connection with the foregoing terminals.

In addition, we assumed certain of TRMC’s rights and obligations with respect to the Carson Terminal Assets under the purchase and sale agreement pursuant to which TRMC acquired the assets from BP West Coast Products LLC.

TRMC retained responsibility for remediation of known environmental liabilities due to the use or operation of the Carson Terminal Assets prior to the acquisition (“Pre-Closing”), and has indemnified the Partnership for any losses incurred by the Partnership arising out of those remediation obligations. The indemnification for unknown Pre-Closing remediation liabilities is limited to five years. The Partnership commenced managing the operation of all of the assets associated with the Carson Assets Acquisition and receiving fees for services as of June 1, 2013. At the time of the Carson Assets Acquisition, TLGP hired approximately 65 employees to manage the operations. The Partnership reimburses Tesoro for operational expenses related to the Carson Terminal Assets under the terms of the Amendment and Restatement of Schedules to the Amended and Restated Operational Services Schedules (the “Amended Operational Services Schedules”), which became effective on June 1, 2013. The additional annual cost under the Amended Operational Services Schedules for the Carson Terminal Assets is $1.6 million. Additionally, the annual fee we pay to Tesoro for administrative services increased by $1.5 million to $4.0 million under the Amended and Restated Omnibus Agreement, which became effective on June 1, 2013.

Chevron Pipeline Assets Acquisition

On December 6, 2012, we entered into asset sale and purchase agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”) to purchase for $400.0 million the Northwest Products System from Chevron Pipe Line Company and the Northwest Terminalling Company, which consists of the Northwest Product Pipeline, a 760-mile Federal Energy

7

Regulatory Commission (“FERC”)-regulated common carrier products pipeline running from Salt Lake City, Utah to Spokane, Washington, and a 5-mile jet fuel pipeline to the Salt Lake City International Airport. It also included certain assets of the Northwest Terminalling Company consisting of the Boise and Pocatello, Idaho and Pasco, Washington refined products terminals. The refined products terminals are not subject to FERC regulation. The common carrier pipeline’s rates are grandfathered and are subject to the same standards and procedures as our High Plains pipeline as discussed under the caption “Items 1. and 2. Business and Properties—Rate and Other Regulations” in our 2012 Annual Report incorporated herein by reference. The common carrier pipeline is the primary source of refined products to southern Idaho and is a major supplier of refined products to eastern Washington. Delivery volumes on the system averaged approximately 87,000 bpd in 2012. The terminals have a total storage capacity of 1.3 million barrels and delivered approximately 56,000 bpd in 2012.

On May 17, 2013, we entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Purchase Agreements. The Amendment reduces the aggregate purchase price from $400 million to $355 million. In addition, the Amendment addresses the responsibilities of the parties in connection with the release of diesel fuel that occurred at Chevron’s Northwest Products Pipeline System near Utah’s Willard Bay on March 18, 2013. Chevron Pipe Line Company will retain financial and operational responsibility to remediate the site of the release for a period of two years, in addition to paying any monetary fines and penalties assessed by any government authority arising from this incident. Remediation of the site of the release is likely to be concluded prior to the two year period, excluding any future monitoring requirements. On June 19, 2013, we completed the Chevron Acquisition in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreements, as amended by the Amendment.

We expect to spend approximately $15 million to $25 million over the next two years to implement a detailed inspection program, including costs to perform repairs as a result of such inspections as they are intended to improve the integrity of the Northwest Products Pipeline System. This includes the costs to comply with a Corrective Action Order issued on March 22, 2013 by the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration of the U.S. Department of Transportation in connection with the release of diesel fuel described above and also takes into consideration potential costs of inspection and repairs which we will perform on other sections of the pipeline. The Partnership recognized an estimated $16.6 million of environmental liabilities assumed in connection with the Northwest Products System, which includes $11.9 million related to the Corrective Action Order and $3.9 million in costs unrelated to the Diesel Pipeline Release as of June 30, 2013.

Recent Equity Offering

On January 14, 2013, we closed a registered public offering of 9,775,000 common units, including 1,275,000 common units issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option on January 9, 2013, at a public offering price of $41.70 per unit. After closing of the Equity Offering, we initially used the net proceeds of $391.6 million to make short-term liquid investments and then applied a portion of such amount to fund the Chevron Acquisition described above. We expect to use the remainder of the net proceeds for general partnership purposes.

The Revolver Amendment

On May 22, 2013, we entered into an amendment to our amended and restated credit agreement (as amended, the “revolving credit facility”) dated as of January 4, 2013, with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and a syndicate of banks and financial institutions as lenders. The Revolver Amendment increased the total revolving loan availability from $500 million to $575 million. The Revolver Amendment also modified the definition of Consolidated EBITDA in the revolving credit facility to allow for the add back of certain costs and expenses related to repairs and testing in connection with the Chevron Acquisition and amended the calculation of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio under the revolving credit facility to reduce the consolidated funded indebtedness by our unrestricted cash and cash equivalents.

8

The revolving credit facility is guaranteed by all of our subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of our assets and those of our subsidiaries. The revolving credit facility is scheduled to mature on December 31, 2017.

Other than in connection with the exchange offers, the Issuers and the guarantors of the notes do not currently anticipate that they will register the outstanding notes under the Securities Act.

United States Federal Income Tax Consequences The exchange of outstanding notes for exchange notes in the exchange offers will not be a taxable event for United States federal income tax purposes. See “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Exchange Offers.”

Use of Proceeds We will not receive any cash proceeds from the issuance of exchange notes in the exchange offers. See “Use of Proceeds.”

Exchange Agent U.S. Bank National Association is the exchange agent for the exchange offers. The addresses and telephone numbers of the exchange agent are set forth in the section captioned “The Exchange Offers—Exchange Agent.”

See “Description of the 2020 Notes—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Change of Control Triggering Event” and “Description of the 2021 Notes—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Change of Control Triggering Event.”

Guarantees The exchange notes will be jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by substantially all of our domestic subsidiaries (except for Finance Corp.) that guarantee other specific indebtedness. Any guarantee of the exchange notes will be released in the event such guarantee is released under the revolving credit facility.

Ranking The exchange notes and the related subsidiary guarantees will rank:

• senior in right of payment to any future subordinated indebtedness we or the guarantor subsidiaries may incur;

• equal in right of payment to all existing and future senior indebtedness;

• effectively subordinated to all existing and future secured indebtedness, including borrowings and the related guarantees of indebtedness under our revolving credit facility, in each case to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness; and

• effectively subordinate to all future indebtedness and other liabilities.

As of June 30, 2013, after giving pro forma effect to the Transactions, we had no senior secured indebtedness to which the exchange notes and related guarantees would have ranked effectively junior.

No Public Market The exchange notes will be freely transferable but will also be new securities for which there will not initially be an actively trading market. Accordingly, we cannot assure you as to the future liquidity of any market for the exchange notes. The initial purchasers in the private offerings of the outstanding notes have advised us that they presently intend to make a market in the exchange notes. However, you should be aware that they are not obligated to make a market in the exchange notes and any such market-making may be discontinued

16

by the initial purchasers in their discretion at any time without notice. As a result, a liquid market for the notes may not be available if you try to sell your notes. We do not intend to apply for a listing of the notes on any securities exchange or any automated dealer quotation system. See “Risk Factors—Your ability to transfer the exchange notes may be limited by the absence of an active trading market, and there is no assurance that any active trading market will develop for the exchange notes.”

Risk Factors

You should carefully consider all the information in the prospectus prior to exchanging your outstanding notes. In particular, we urge you to carefully consider the factors set forth under the heading “Risk Factors.”

Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges

We have computed the ratio of earnings to fixed charges for each of the following periods on a consolidated basis. For purposes of computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, “earnings” consist of pretax income plus fixed charges (excluding capitalized interest). “Fixed charges” represent interest incurred (whether expensed or capitalized), amortization of debt expense and that portion of rental expense on operating leases deemed to be the equivalent of interest. You should read the ratio of earnings to fixed charges in conjunction with our combined consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

RISK FACTORS

Any investment in the exchange notes involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and all of the information contained or incorporated by reference into this prospectus before deciding whether to participate in the exchange offers. The risks and uncertainties described below and in such incorporated documents are not the only risks and uncertainties that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business, financial condition, results of operations or ability to make payments on our debt obligations. If any of those risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations and ability to make payments on our debt obligations would suffer. In any such case, you may lose all or part of your original investment. The risks discussed below also include forward-looking statements, and our actual results may differ substantially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. See “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Risks Related to the Exchange Offers

If you choose not to exchange your outstanding notes, the present transfer restrictions will remain in force and the market price of your outstanding notes could decline.

If you do not exchange your outstanding notes for exchange notes in the applicable exchange offer, then you will continue to be subject to the transfer restrictions on the outstanding notes as set forth in the offering memorandum distributed in connection with the private offerings of the outstanding notes. In general, the outstanding notes may not be offered or sold unless they are registered or exempt from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Except as required by the related registration rights agreement, we do not intend to register resales of the outstanding notes under the Securities Act. You should refer to “Summary—The Exchange Offers” and “The Exchange Offers” for information about how to tender your outstanding notes.

The tender of outstanding notes under the exchange offers will reduce the principal amount of the outstanding notes outstanding, which may have an adverse effect upon, and increase the volatility of, the market price of the outstanding notes due to a reduction in liquidity.

Certain persons who participate in the exchange offers must deliver a prospectus in connection with resales of the exchange notes.

Based on interpretations of the staff of the SEC contained inExxon Capital Holdings Corp., SEC no-action letter (April 13, 1988),Morgan Stanley & Co. Inc., SEC no-action letter (June 5, 1991) andShearman & Sterling, SEC no-action letter (July 2, 1983), we believe that you may offer for resale, resell or otherwise transfer the exchange notes without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. However, in some instances described in this prospectus under “Plan of Distribution,” certain holders of exchange notes will remain obligated to comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to transfer the exchange notes. If such a holder transfers any exchange notes without delivering a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act or without an applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act, such a holder may incur liability under the Securities Act. We do not and will not assume, or indemnify such a holder against, this liability.

Risks Relating to the Exchange Notes

Our partnership agreement limits our ability to accumulate cash, which may limit cash available to service the exchange notes or repay them at maturity.

Our partnership agreement requires that we, within 45 days after the end of each quarter, distribute our available cash to our unitholders of record on the applicable record date. Available cash generally means, for any

19

quarter, all cash on hand at the end of each quarter after the establishment of cash reserves by our general partner. In addition, if our general partner so determines, available cash may be increased by cash on hand resulting from working capital borrowings made subsequent to the end of the quarter. Our general partner determines the amount and timing of cash distributions and has broad discretion to establish and make additions to our reserves in amounts our general partner determines to be necessary or appropriate to:

• provide for the proper conduct of our business (including reserves for future capital expenditures and for our anticipated future credit needs subsequent to that quarter);

• comply with applicable law, any of our debt instruments or other agreements; and

• provide funds for distributions to our unitholders and our general partner for any one or more of the next four quarters (provided that our general partner may not establish cash reserves for distributions on our subordinated units unless it determines that the establishment of those reserves will not prevent us from distributing the minimum quarterly distribution on all common units and any cumulative arrearages for the next four quarters).

Depending on the timing and amount of our cash distributions to unitholders and because we are not required to accumulate cash for the purpose of meeting obligations to holders of the exchange notes, such distributions could significantly reduce the cash available to us in subsequent periods to make payments on the notes. See “Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities—Unit Price and Cash Distributions—Distributions of Available Cash” in our 2012 Annual Report incorporated herein by reference.

Although our payment obligations to our unitholders are subordinate to our payment obligations with respect to the exchange notes, the value of our units will decrease in correlation with decreases in the amount we distribute per unit. Accordingly, if we experience a liquidity problem in the future, we may not be able to issue equity to recapitalize.

Our level of indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations under the exchange notes.

As of June 30, 2013, after giving pro forma effect to the Transactions, we would have had no borrowings and $0.3 million in letters of credit outstanding under our revolving credit facility, resulting in total unused credit availability of $574.7 million. In addition, we currently have $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2020 Notes and $550 million aggregate principal amount of 2021 Notes outstanding. Our indebtedness could have important consequences to you, including the following:

• it may be more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations, including debt service requirements under our outstanding debt, including the exchange notes;

• our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements or other general partnership purposes may be impaired;

• we must use a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest on the exchange notes and other indebtedness which will reduce the funds available to us for other purposes;

• we are more vulnerable to economic downturns and adverse industry conditions; and

• our ability to capitalize on business opportunities and to react to competitive pressures as compared to our competitors may be compromised due to our substantial level of indebtedness.

Despite our current or future indebtedness level, we and our subsidiaries may still be able to incur substantially more debt.

We and our subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial indebtedness in the future. The terms of the indentures that govern the exchange notes and the amended and restated credit agreement governing our

20

revolving credit facility do not fully prohibit us from doing so. If we incur any additional indebtedness that ranks equally with the exchange notes, the holders of that debt will be entitled to share ratably with the holders of the exchange notes in any proceeds distributed in connection with any insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution or other winding up of Tesoro Logistics. If new debt is added to our current debt levels, the related risks we face will increase.

We have a holding company structure in which our subsidiaries conduct our operations and own our operating assets.

We are a holding company, and our subsidiaries conduct all of our operations and own all of our operating assets. We have no significant assets other than the stock and other equity interests in our subsidiaries. As a result, our ability to make required payments on the exchange notes will depend on the performance of our subsidiaries and their ability to distribute funds to us. The ability of our subsidiaries to make distributions to us may be restricted by, among other things, our revolving credit facility and other debt agreements and applicable state laws and other laws and regulations. If we are unable to obtain the funds necessary to pay the principal amount at maturity of the exchange notes, or to repurchase the exchange notes upon the occurrence of a change of control or from the proceeds of certain asset sales, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as a refinancing of the exchange notes. We cannot assure you that we would be able to refinance the exchange notes or obtain the funds to pay principal or interest on the exchange notes.

The exchange notes will be effectively subordinated to our and our subsidiary guarantors’ existing and future secured indebtedness, including indebtedness under our revolving credit facility, in each case to the extent of the value of the property securing such indebtedness.

The exchange notes and the subsidiary guarantees of the exchange notes will be effectively subordinated to our and our subsidiary guarantors’ existing and future secured indebtedness, including indebtedness under our revolving credit facility, to the extent of the collateral securing such indebtedness. As of June 30, 2013, after giving pro forma effect to the Transactions, we would have had no borrowings and $0.3 million in letters of credit outstanding under our revolving credit facility, resulting in total unused credit availability of $574.7 million. In addition, we may incur additional secured debt in the future.

The effect of this is that upon a default in payment on, or the acceleration of, any of our secured indebtedness, or in the event of our, or our subsidiary guarantors’, bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or similar proceeding, the proceeds from the sale of the collateral that secures our secured indebtedness will be available to pay obligations on the exchange notes offered hereby only after all indebtedness under our revolving credit facility has been paid in full. As a result, the holders of the exchange notes may receive less, ratably, than the holders of secured debt in the event of our, or our subsidiary guarantors’, bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or similar proceeding.

Under certain circumstances, the subsidiary guarantees will be released.

Under the terms of the indentures governing the exchange notes, under certain circumstances, some or all of the guarantors may cease to guarantee the exchange notes. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of these non-guarantor subsidiaries, holders of their indebtedness and their trade creditors will generally be entitled to payment of their claims from the assets of those subsidiaries before any assets are made available for distribution to us. As a result, the exchange notes will be structurally subordinated to the debt and other liabilities of our non-guarantor subsidiaries.

If, at any time, a subsidiary does not guarantee specified indebtedness, the exchange guarantees of such subsidiary will be released. If all of the subsidiary guarantors are released from their guarantees of the exchange notes, our subsidiaries will have no obligation to pay any amounts due on the exchange notes. In the event of the release of any subsidiary guarantor’s guarantees, our right, as an equity holder of such subsidiary, to receive any

21

assets of such subsidiary upon its liquidation or reorganization, and therefore the right of the holders of the exchange notes to participate in those assets, will be effectively subordinated to the claims of that subsidiary’s creditors, including trade creditors.

Our debt instruments impose restrictions on us that may adversely affect our ability to operate our business.

Our revolving credit facility contains covenants requiring us to maintain certain financial ratios. Our ability to comply with the financial covenants under our revolving credit facility as they currently exist or as they may be amended, may be affected by events beyond our control and our future operating results may not allow us to comply with the covenants, or in the event of a default, to remedy that default. Our failure to comply with these financial covenants or to comply with the other restrictions contained in our revolving credit facility could result in a default, which could cause that indebtedness (and by reason of cross-acceleration provisions, indebtedness under the indentures governing the exchange notes and any other indebtedness) to become immediately due and payable. If we are unable to repay those amounts, the lenders under our revolving credit facility could proceed against the collateral granted to them to secure that indebtedness. If those lenders accelerate the payment of the revolving credit facility, we may not be able to pay that indebtedness immediately and continue to operate our business.

If our operating results are not sufficient to service any future indebtedness, we will be forced to take actions such as reducing distributions, reducing or delaying our business activities, investments or capital expenditures, selling assets or issuing equity. We may not be able to affect any of these actions on satisfactory terms or at all. Furthermore, a failure to comply with the provisions of the indentures governing the exchange notes or our revolving credit facility could result in an event of default, which could enable our lenders to declare the outstanding principal of that debt, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable. If we were unable to repay the accelerated amounts, our lenders could proceed against the collateral granted to them to secure such debt. If the payment of our debt is accelerated, defaults under any other debt instruments we may have could be triggered, and our assets may be insufficient to repay such debt in full.

We are dependent upon the earnings and cash flow generated by our operations to meet our debt service obligations and to allow us to make cash distributions to our unitholders. Funds available for our operations, future business opportunities and distributions to unitholders will be reduced by that portion of our cash flow required to make interest payments on our debt. Furthermore, the provisions of our revolving credit facility, and any other debt we incur, may restrict our ability to obtain future financing and our ability to expand business activities or pursue attractive business opportunities. It may also restrict our flexibility in planning for, and reacting to, changes in business conditions.

The indentures that govern the exchange notes and our revolving credit facility contain covenants that restrict, among other things, our ability to:

• make certain cash distributions;

• pay dividends and other distributions with respect to our units and purchase, redeem or retire our units;

• make certain investments;

• incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred units;

• sell assets;

• incur liens on our assets;

• engage in certain mergers or consolidations and transfers of assets; and

• enter into transactions with affiliates.

These restrictions may limit our ability to make cash distributions to our unitholders and meet our debt service obligations.

22

We may be unable to generate the cash flow to service our debt obligations, including the exchange notes.

We cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow, or that we will be able to borrow funds under our revolving credit facility, in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness, including the exchange notes, or to make anticipated capital expenditures. Our ability to pay our expenses and satisfy our debt obligations, to refinance our debt obligations and to fund planned capital expenditures will depend on our future performance, which will be affected by general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors beyond our control. Based upon current levels of operations, we believe cash flow from operations, amounts available under our revolving credit facility and available cash will be adequate for the foreseeable future to meet our anticipated requirements for working capital, capital expenditures and scheduled payments of principal and interest on our indebtedness, including the exchange notes. However, if we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or to borrow sufficient funds in the future to service our debt, we may be required to sell assets, reduce capital expenditures, refinance all or a portion of our existing debt (including the exchange notes) or obtain additional financing. We cannot assure you that we will be able to refinance our debt, sell assets or borrow more money on terms acceptable to us, if at all. In addition, the covenants contained in our revolving credit facility and the indenture governing the exchange notes restrict our ability to incur additional debt.

The subsidiary guarantees could be deemed fraudulent conveyances under certain circumstances, and a court may try to subordinate or avoid the subsidiary guarantees.

Various preference or fraudulent conveyance laws have been enacted for the protection of creditors and may be used by a court to subordinate or avoid any subsidiary guarantee of the exchange notes issued by a guarantor. It also is possible that under certain circumstances a court could hold that the direct obligations of a guarantor could be superior to the obligations under its subsidiary guarantee.

A court could avoid or subordinate the subsidiary guarantee in favor of the guarantor’s other creditors to the extent that the court finds that at the time a guarantor entered into a subsidiary guarantee either:

• the subsidiary guarantee was incurred by a guarantor with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any present or future creditor or that a guarantor contemplated insolvency with a design to favor one or more creditors to the exclusion in whole or in part of others; or

• the guarantor did not receive fair consideration or reasonably equivalent value for issuing the subsidiary guarantee and, at the time it issued the subsidiary guarantee, the guarantor:

• was insolvent or rendered insolvent by reason of the issuance of the subsidiary guarantee;

• was engaged or about to engage in a business or transaction for which the remaining assets of the guarantor constituted unreasonably small capital; or

• intended to incur, or believed that it would incur, debts beyond its ability to pay debts as they matured.

Among other things, a legal challenge of a subsidiary guarantee issued by a guarantor on fraudulent conveyance grounds may focus on the benefits, if any, realized by the guarantor as a result of our issuance of the exchange notes. To the extent a subsidiary guarantee is voided as a fraudulent conveyance or held unenforceable for any other reason, the holders of the exchange notes would cease to have any claim as a creditor in respect of that subsidiary guarantor.

We cannot assure you that a court would conclude that the exchange notes and the subsidiary guarantees issued concurrently with the issuance of these exchange notes were incurred for proper purposes and in good faith. We also cannot assure you that a court would conclude that, after giving effect to this offering, Tesoro Logistics and the subsidiary guarantors are solvent and will continue to be solvent, will have sufficient capital for carrying on their respective businesses and will be able to pay their debts as they become absolute and mature.

23

Each subsidiary guarantee contains a provision intended to limit the guarantor’s liability to the maximum amount that it could incur without causing the incurrence of obligations under its guarantee to be a fraudulent transfer. This provision may not be effective to protect the subsidiary guarantees from being voided under applicable fraudulent transfer laws or may reduce the guarantor’s obligation to an amount that makes the subsidiary guarantee effectively worthless. Although subsequently overturned on other grounds, a recent Florida bankruptcy court found this kind of provision insufficient to protect such guarantees.

We may not be able to finance a change of control offer as required by the indentures.

Under the indentures which govern the exchange notes, upon the occurrence of a change of control triggering event, we will be required to offer to repurchase all of the exchange notes then outstanding at 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, to the repurchase date. We may not be able to repurchase the exchange notes upon a change of control triggering event because we may not have sufficient financial resources to purchase all of the exchange notes that would be tendered upon a change of control triggering event. Further, we will be contractually restricted under the terms of our revolving credit facility from repurchasing all of the exchange notes tendered by holders upon a change of control triggering event. Accordingly, we may not be able to satisfy our obligations to purchase the exchange notes unless we are able to refinance or obtain a waiver under our revolving credit facility. Our failure to repurchase the exchange notes upon a change of control triggering event would cause a default under the indentures and a cross-default under our revolving credit facility. Our revolving credit facility also provides that a change of control will be a default that permits lenders to accelerate the maturity of borrowings thereunder. Any of our future debt agreements may contain similar provisions. We cannot assure you that we will have the financial resources available or that we will be permitted by our debt instruments to fulfill these obligations upon the occurrence of a change of control triggering event in the future. See “Description of the 2020 Notes—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Change of Control Triggering Event” and “Description of the 2021 Notes—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Change of Control Triggering Event.”

Many of the covenants in the indentures will terminate if the exchange notes are rated investment grade by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s.

Many of the covenants in the indentures governing the exchange notes will terminate if the exchange notes are rated investment grade by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s, provided at such time no default under the related indenture has occurred and is continuing. These covenants will restrict, among other things, our ability to pay distributions, incur debt, and to enter into certain other transactions. There can be no assurance that the exchange notes will ever be rated investment grade, or that if they are rated investment grade, that the exchange notes will maintain these ratings. However, termination of these covenants would allow us to engage in certain transactions that would not be permitted while these covenants were in force. See “Description of the 2020 Notes—Certain Covenants” and “Description of the 2021 Notes—Certain Covenants.”

The trading price of the exchange notes may be volatile and can be directly affected by many factors, including our credit rating.

The trading price of the exchange notes could be subject to significant fluctuation in response to, among other factors, changes in our operating results, interest rates, the market for non-investment grade securities, general economic conditions and securities analysts’ recommendations, if any, regarding our securities. Credit rating agencies continually revise their ratings for companies they follow, including us. Any ratings downgrade could adversely affect the trading price of the exchange notes, or the trading market for the exchange notes, to the extent a trading market for the exchange notes develops. The condition of the financial and credit markets and prevailing interest rates have fluctuated in the past and are likely to fluctuate in the future and any fluctuation may impact the trading price of the exchange notes.

24

Your ability to transfer the exchange notes may be limited by the absence of an active trading market, and there is no assurance that any active trading market will develop for the exchange notes.

We are offering the exchange notes to the holders of the outstanding notes. The outstanding notes were offered and sold in private offerings in September 2012 and in August 2013 to institutional investors.

We do not intend to apply for a listing of the exchange notes on a securities exchange or on any automated dealer quotation system. There is currently no established market for the exchange notes and we cannot assure you as to the liquidity of markets that may develop for the exchange notes, your ability to sell the exchange notes or the price at which you would be able to sell the exchange notes. If such markets were to exist, the exchange notes could trade at prices that may be lower than their principal amount or purchase price depending on many factors, including prevailing interest rates, the market for similar notes, our financial and operating performance and other factors. The initial purchasers in the private offerings of the outstanding notes have advised us that they currently intend to make a market with respect to the exchange notes. However, these initial purchasers are not obligated to do so, and any market making with respect to the exchange notes may be discontinued at any time without notice. Therefore, we cannot assure you that an active market for the exchange notes will develop or, if developed, that it will continue. Historically, the market for non-investment grade debt has been subject to disruptions that have caused substantial volatility in the prices of securities similar to the exchange notes. The market, if any, for the exchange notes may experience similar disruptions and any such disruptions may adversely affect the prices at which you may sell your exchange notes.

Our tax treatment depends on our status as a partnership for United States federal and state income tax purposes. If the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) were to treat us as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes, which would subject us to entity-level taxation, or if we were subjected to a material amount of additional entity-level taxation by individual states, then our cash available for payments on the exchange notes and our other debt obligations would be substantially reduced.

Despite the fact that we are a limited partnership under Delaware law, it is possible in certain circumstances for a partnership such as ours to be treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes. Although we do not believe based upon our current operations that we are or will be so treated, a change in our business or a change in current law could cause us to be treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes or otherwise subject us to taxation as an entity.

If we were treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes, we would pay United States federal income tax on our taxable income at the corporate tax rate, which is currently a maximum of 35%, and would likely pay state and local income tax at varying rates. Therefore, our treatment as a corporation would result in a material reduction in our anticipated cash flow and could materially adversely affect our ability to make payments on the exchange notes and our other debt obligations.

In addition, changes in current state law may subject us to additional entity-level taxation by individual states. Because of widespread state budget deficits and other reasons, several states are evaluating ways to subject partnerships to entity-level taxation through the imposition of state income, franchise and other forms of taxation. Imposition of any such taxes may substantially reduce the cash available for payments on the exchange notes and our other debt obligations.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any cash proceeds from the issuance of the exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offers. In consideration for issuing the exchange notes as contemplated in this prospectus, we will receive in exchange a like principal amount of outstanding notes, the terms of which are identical in all material respects to the exchange notes. The outstanding notes surrendered in exchange for the exchange notes will be retired and canceled and cannot be reissued. Accordingly, the issuance of the exchange notes will not result in any change in our capitalization.

THE EXCHANGE OFFERS

Purpose and Effect of the Exchange Offers

The Issuers and the guarantors of the notes have entered into registration rights agreements with the initial purchasers of the outstanding notes in which they agreed, under certain circumstances, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement relating to offer to exchange the outstanding notes for exchange notes and thereafter cause the registration statement to become effective under the Securities Act no later than 365 days following the closing date of the issuance of such series of the outstanding notes. The exchange notes will have terms identical in all material respects to the applicable outstanding notes, except that the exchange notes will not contain terms with respect to transfer restrictions, registration rights and special interest for failure to observe certain obligations in the applicable registration rights agreement. The 2020 Notes were issued on September 14, 2012 and the 2021 Notes were issued on August 1, 2013.

Under the circumstances set forth below, the Issuers and the guarantors will use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the SEC to declare effective a shelf registration statement with respect to the resale of the outstanding notes within the time periods specified in the registration rights agreements and keep the statement effective for up to two years after the effective date of the shelf registration statement. These circumstances include:

• if any changes in law, SEC rules or regulations or applicable interpretations thereof by the SEC do not permit us to effect an exchange offer as contemplated by the related registration rights agreement;

• if an exchange offer is not consummated within 365 days after the date of issuance of the applicable outstanding notes;

• if any initial purchaser so requests with respect to the outstanding notes not eligible to be exchanged for the exchange notes and held by it within 30 days after the consummation of the applicable exchange offer; or

• if any holder that participates in an exchange offer does not receive freely transferable exchange notes in exchange for tendered outstanding notes and notifies the Issuers within 30 days after becoming aware of any restrictions on the notes.

Under the registration rights agreements, if the Issuers fail to complete the exchange offers (other than in the event we file a shelf registration statement) or the shelf registration statement, if required thereby, is not declared effective, in either case on or prior to 365 days after the applicable issue date (the “target registration date”), the interest rate on the related outstanding notes will be increased by (x) 0.25% per annum for the first 90-day period immediately following the target registration date and (y) an additional 0.25% per annum with respect to each subsequent 90-day period, in each case, until the applicable exchange offer is completed or the shelf registration statement, if required, is declared effective by the SEC or the outstanding notes cease to constitute transfer restricted notes, up to a maximum of 1.00% per annum of special interest.

If you wish to exchange your outstanding notes for exchange notes in an exchange offer, you will be required to make the following representations:

• you are acquiring the exchange notes in the ordinary course of your business;

• you have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in a distribution (within the meaning of the Securities Act) of the exchange notes in violation of the provisions of the Securities Act;

• you are not our affiliate or an affiliate of any guarantor within the meaning of Rule 405 of the Securities Act or, if you are such an affiliate, that you will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable; and

• if you are not a broker-dealer, you are not engaged in, and do not intend to engage in, a distribution of the exchange notes.

27

Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account in exchange for outstanding notes, where the broker-dealer acquired the outstanding notes as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act, including the requirement to deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. See “Plan of Distribution.”

Resale of Exchange Notes

Based on interpretations by the SEC set forth in no-action letters issued to third parties, we believe that you may resell or otherwise transfer exchange notes issued in the exchange offers without complying with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, if:

• you are not our affiliate or an affiliate of any guarantor within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act;

• you do not have an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in a distribution of the exchange notes;

• you are not engaged in, and do not intend to engage in, a distribution of the exchange notes; and

• you are acquiring the exchange notes in the ordinary course of your business.

If you are our affiliate or an affiliate of any guarantor, or are engaging in, or intend to engage in, or have any arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in, a distribution of the exchange notes, or are not acquiring the exchange notes in the ordinary course of your business:

• you cannot rely on the position of the SEC set forth in Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (available June 5, 1991) andExxon Capital Holdings Corporation (available May 13, 1988), as interpreted in the SEC’s letter to Shearman & Sterling, dated July 2, 1993, or similar no-action letters; and

• in the absence of an exception from the position stated immediately above, you must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of the exchange notes.

This prospectus may be used for an offer to resell, resale or other transfer of exchange notes only as specifically set forth in this prospectus. With regard to broker-dealers, only broker-dealers that acquired the outstanding notes as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities may participate in the exchange offers. Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account in exchange for outstanding notes, where such outstanding notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of the exchange notes. See “Plan of Distribution” for more details regarding the transfer of exchange notes.

Terms of the Exchange Offers

On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this prospectus and in the accompanying letter of transmittal, the Issuers will accept for exchange in the exchange offers any outstanding notes that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the applicable expiration date. Outstanding notes may only be tendered in a minimum denomination of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. The Issuers will issue exchange notes in principal amounts identical to the outstanding notes surrendered in the exchange offers.

The form and terms of the exchange notes will be identical in all material respects to the form and terms of the related series of outstanding notes except the exchange notes will be registered under the Securities Act, will not bear legends restricting their transfer and will not provide for any special interest upon our failure to fulfill our obligations under the registration rights agreements to complete the exchange offers, or file, and cause to be effective, a shelf registration statement, if required thereby, within the specified time period. The exchange notes

28

will evidence the same debt as the related series of outstanding notes. The exchange notes will be issued under and entitled to the benefits of the same indenture that authorized the issuance of the related series of outstanding notes. For a description of the indentures, see “Description of the 2020 Notes” and “Description of the 2021 Notes”.

The exchange offers are not conditioned upon any minimum aggregate principal amount of outstanding notes being tendered for exchange.

As of the date of this prospectus, $350 million aggregate principal amount of the 5.875% Senior Notes due 2020 and $550 million aggregate principal amount of 6.125% Senior Notes due 2021 are outstanding and unregistered. This prospectus and the applicable letter of transmittal are being sent to all registered holders of outstanding notes. There will be no fixed record date for determining registered holders of outstanding notes entitled to participate in the exchange offers. The Issuers intend to conduct the exchange offers in accordance with the provisions of the registration rights agreements, the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC. Outstanding notes that are not tendered for exchange in the exchange offers will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest and will be entitled to the rights and benefits such holders have under the related indenture and the related registration rights agreement relating to such holders’ series of outstanding notes except we will not have any further obligation to provide for the registration of the outstanding notes under the registration rights agreements.

The Issuers will be deemed to have accepted for exchange properly tendered outstanding notes when they has given oral or written notice of the acceptance to the exchange agent. The exchange agent will act as agent for the tendering holders for the purposes of receiving the exchange notes from us and delivering exchange notes to holders. Subject to the terms of the applicable registration rights agreement, the Issuers expressly reserve the right to amend or terminate an exchange offer and to refuse to waive of any of the conditions specified below under “—Conditions to the Exchange Offers.”

If you tender your outstanding notes in the exchange offers, you will not be required to pay brokerage commissions or fees or, subject to the instructions in the letter of transmittal, transfer taxes with respect to the exchanges of outstanding notes. We will pay all charges and expenses, other than certain applicable taxes described below in connection with the exchange offers. It is important that you read “—Fees and Expenses” below for more details regarding fees and expenses incurred in the exchange offers.

Expiration Date; Extensions, Amendments

As used in this prospectus, the term “expiration date” means 12:00 a.m. midnight, New York City time, on                     , 2013. However, if we, in our sole discretion, extend the period of time for which an exchange offer is open, the term “expiration date” will mean the latest time and date to which we shall have extended the expiration of such exchange offer.

To extend the period of time during which an exchange offer is open, we will notify the exchange agent of any extension by oral or written notice, followed by notification by press release or other public announcement no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled expiration date.

The Issuers reserve the right, in their sole discretion:

• to delay accepting for exchange any outstanding notes (if we amend or extend an exchange offer);

• to extend an exchange offer or to terminate an exchange offer if any of the conditions set forth below under “—Conditions to the Exchange Offers” have not been satisfied, by giving oral or written notice of such delay, extension or termination to the exchange agent; and

• subject to the terms of the related registration rights agreement, to amend the terms of an exchange offer in any manner.

29

Any delay in acceptance, extension, termination or amendment will be followed as promptly as practicable by oral or written notice to the registered holders of the outstanding notes. If the Issuers amend an exchange offer in a manner that they determine to constitute a material change, including the waiver of a material condition, they will promptly disclose the amendment in a manner reasonably calculated to inform the holders of the outstanding notes of that amendment and extend the exchange offer period if necessary so that at least five business days remain in the offer following notice of the material change.

Conditions to the Exchange Offers

Despite any other term of the exchange offers, the Issuers will not be required to accept for exchange, or to issue exchange notes in exchange for, any outstanding notes and they may terminate or amend an exchange offer as provided in this prospectus prior to the applicable expiration date if in its reasonable judgment:

• the exchange offers or the making of any exchange by a holder violates any applicable law or interpretation of the SEC; or

• any action or proceeding has been instituted or threatened in any court or by or before any governmental agency with respect to an exchange offer that, in our judgment, would reasonably be expected to impair our ability to proceed with such exchange offer.

In addition, the Issuers will not be obligated to accept for exchange the outstanding notes of any holder that has not made to us:

• the representations described under “—Purpose and Effect of the Exchange Offers,” “—Procedures for Tendering” and “Plan of Distribution;” or

• any other representations as may be reasonably necessary under applicable SEC rules, regulations, or interpretations to make available to us an appropriate form for registration of the exchange notes under the Securities Act.

The Issuers expressly reserve the right at any time or at various times to extend the period of time during which an exchange offer is open. Consequently, the Issuers may delay acceptance of any outstanding notes by giving oral or written notice of such extension to their holders. The Issuers will return any outstanding notes that it does not accept for exchange for any reason without expense to their tendering holder promptly after the expiration or termination of an exchange offer.

The Issuers expressly reserve the right to amend or terminate an exchange offer and to reject for exchange any outstanding notes not previously accepted for exchange, upon the occurrence of any of the conditions of an exchange offer specified above. The Issuers will give oral or written notice of any extension, amendment, non-acceptance or termination to the holders of the outstanding notes as promptly as practicable. In the case of any extension, such notice will be issued no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled expiration date.

These conditions are for our sole benefit and the Issuers may assert them regardless of the circumstances that may give rise to them or waive them in whole or in part at any or at various times prior to the applicable expiration date in our sole discretion. If the Issuers fail at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights, this failure will not constitute a waiver of such right. Each such right will be deemed an ongoing right that it may assert at any time or at various times prior to the applicable expiration date.

In addition, the Issuers will not accept for exchange any outstanding notes tendered, and will not issue exchange notes in exchange for any such outstanding notes, if at such time any stop order is threatened or in effect with respect to the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part or the qualification of the relevant indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (the “TIA”).

Procedures for Tendering Outstanding Notes

To tender your outstanding notes in the exchange offers, you must comply with either of the following:

• complete, sign and date the applicable letter of transmittal, or a facsimile of the letter of transmittal, have the signature(s) on the applicable letter of transmittal guaranteed if required by such letter of transmittal and mail or deliver such letter of transmittal or facsimile thereof to the exchange agent at the address set forth below under “—Exchange Agent—Notes” prior to the applicable expiration date; or

• comply with DTC’s Automated Tender Offer Program procedures described below.

In addition, either:

• the exchange agent must receive certificates for outstanding notes along with the applicable letter of transmittal prior to the applicable expiration date;

• the exchange agent must receive a timely confirmation of book-entry transfer of outstanding notes into the exchange agent’s account at DTC according to the procedures for book-entry transfer described below or a properly transmitted agent’s message prior to the applicable expiration date; or

• you must comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures described below.

Your tender, if not withdrawn prior to the applicable expiration date, constitutes an agreement between us and you upon the terms and subject to the conditions described in this prospectus and in the applicable letter of transmittal.

The method of delivery of outstanding notes, letters of transmittal, and all other required documents to the exchange agent is at your election and risk. We recommend that instead of delivery by mail, you use an overnight or hand delivery service, properly insured. In all cases, you should allow sufficient time to assure timely delivery to the exchange agent before the applicable expiration date. You should not send letters of transmittal or certificates representing outstanding notes to us. You may request that your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or nominee effect the above transactions for you.

If you are a beneficial owner whose outstanding notes are registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company, or other nominee and you wish to tender your outstanding notes, you should promptly contact the registered holder and instruct the registered holder to tender on your behalf. If you wish to tender the outstanding notes yourself, you must, prior to completing and executing the applicable letter of transmittal and delivering your outstanding notes, either:

• make appropriate arrangements to register ownership of the outstanding notes in your name; or

• obtain a properly completed bond power from the registered holder of outstanding notes.

The transfer of registered ownership may take considerable time and may not be able to be completed prior to the applicable expiration date.

Signatures on the letter of transmittal or a notice of withdrawal, as the case may be, must be guaranteed by a member firm of a registered national securities exchange or of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States or another “eligible guarantor institution” within the meaning of Rule 17A(d)-15 under the Exchange Act unless the outstanding notes surrendered for exchange are tendered:

• by a registered holder of the outstanding notes who has not completed the box entitled “Special Registration Instructions” or “Special Delivery Instructions” on the letter of transmittal; or

• for the account of an eligible guarantor institution.

31

If the letter of transmittal is signed by a person other than the registered holder of any outstanding notes listed on the outstanding notes, such outstanding notes must be endorsed or accompanied by a properly completed bond power. The bond power must be signed by the registered holder as the registered holder’s name appears on the outstanding notes and an eligible guarantor institution must guarantee the signature on the bond power.

If the letter of transmittal or any certificates representing outstanding notes, or bond powers are signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations, or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, those persons should also indicate when signing and, unless waived by us, they should also submit evidence satisfactory to us of their authority to so act.

The exchange agent and DTC have confirmed that any financial institution that is a participant in DTC’s system may use DTC’s Automated Tender Offer Program to tender. Participants in the program may, instead of physically completing and signing the letter of transmittal and delivering it to the exchange agent, electronically transmit their acceptance of the exchange by causing DTC to transfer the outstanding notes to the exchange agent in accordance with DTC’s Automated Tender Offer Program procedures for transfer. DTC will then send an agent’s message to the exchange agent. The term “agent’s message” means a message transmitted by DTC, received by the exchange agent and forming part of the book-entry confirmation, which states that:

• DTC has received an express acknowledgment from a participant in its Automated Tender Offer Program that is tendering outstanding notes that are the subject of the book-entry confirmation;

• the participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of the letter of transmittal, or in the case of an agent’s message relating to guaranteed delivery, that such participant has received and agrees to be bound by the notice of guaranteed delivery; and

• we may enforce that agreement against such participant.

DTC is referred to herein as a “book-entry transfer facility.”

Acceptance of Exchange Notes

In all cases, the Issuers will promptly issue exchange notes for the related series of outstanding notes that they have accepted for exchange under the exchange offers only after the exchange agent timely receives:

• outstanding notes or a timely book-entry confirmation of such outstanding notes into the exchange agent’s account at the book-entry transfer facility; and

• a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal and all other required documents or a properly transmitted agent’s message.

By tendering outstanding notes pursuant to the exchange offers, you will represent to us that, among other things:

• you are not our affiliate or an affiliate of any guarantor within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act;

• you do not have an arrangement or understanding with any person or entity to participate in a distribution of the exchange notes; and

• you are acquiring the exchange notes in the ordinary course of your business.

In addition, each broker-dealer that is to receive exchange notes for its own account in exchange for outstanding notes must represent that such outstanding notes were acquired by that broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities and must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus that meets the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of the exchange notes. The letter of transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. See “Plan of Distribution.”

32

The Issuers will interpret the terms and conditions of the exchange offers, including the letters of transmittal and the instructions to the letter of transmittal, and will resolve all questions as to the validity, form, eligibility, including time of receipt, and acceptance of outstanding notes tendered for exchange. Our determinations in this regard will be final and binding on all parties. The Issuers reserve the absolute right to reject any and all tenders of any particular outstanding notes not properly tendered or to not accept any particular outstanding notes if the acceptance might, in their or their counsel’s judgment, be unlawful. We also reserve the absolute right to waive any defects or irregularities as to any particular outstanding notes prior to the applicable expiration date.

Unless waived, any defects or irregularities in connection with tenders of outstanding notes for exchange must be cured within such reasonable period of time as we determine. Neither of the Issuers, the exchange agent, nor any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defect or irregularity with respect to any tender of outstanding notes for exchange, nor will any of them incur any liability for any failure to give notification. Any outstanding notes received by the exchange agent that are not properly tendered and as to which the irregularities have not been cured or waived will be returned by the exchange agent to the tendering holder, unless otherwise provided in the letter of transmittal, promptly after the applicable expiration date.

Book-Entry Delivery Procedures

Promptly after the date of this prospectus, the exchange agent will establish an account with respect to the outstanding notes at DTC and, as the book-entry transfer facility, for purposes of the exchange offers. Any financial institution that is a participant in the book-entry transfer facility’s system may make book-entry delivery of the outstanding notes by causing the book-entry transfer facility to transfer those outstanding notes into the exchange agent’s account at the facility in accordance with the facility’s procedures for such transfer. To be timely, book-entry delivery of outstanding notes requires receipt of a confirmation of a book-entry transfer, a “book-entry confirmation,” prior to the applicable expiration date. In addition, although delivery of outstanding notes may be effected through book-entry transfer into the exchange agent’s account at the book-entry transfer facility, the letter of transmittal or a manually signed facsimile thereof, together with any required signature guarantees and any other required documents, or an “agent’s message,” as defined below, in connection with a book-entry transfer, must, in any case, be delivered or transmitted to and received by the exchange agent at its address set forth on the cover page of the letter of transmittal prior to the applicable expiration date to receive exchange notes for tendered outstanding notes, or the guaranteed delivery procedure described below must be complied with. Tender will not be deemed made until such documents are received by the exchange agent. Delivery of documents to the book-entry transfer facility does not constitute delivery to the exchange agent.

Holders of outstanding notes who are unable to deliver confirmation of the book-entry tender of their outstanding notes into the exchange agent’s account at the book-entry transfer facility or all other documents required by the letter of transmittal to the exchange agent on or prior to the applicable expiration date must tender their outstanding notes according to the guaranteed delivery procedures described below.

Guaranteed Delivery Procedures

If you wish to tender your outstanding notes but your outstanding notes are not immediately available or you cannot deliver your outstanding notes, the letter of transmittal or any other required documents to the exchange agent or comply with the procedures under DTC’s Automatic Tender Offer Program in the case of outstanding notes, prior to the applicable expiration date, you may still tender if:

• the tender is made through an eligible guarantor institution;

• prior to the applicable expiration date, the exchange agent receives from such eligible guarantor institution either a properly completed and duly executed notice of guaranteed delivery, by facsimile transmission, mail, or hand delivery or a properly transmitted agent’s message and notice of guaranteed delivery, that (1) sets forth your name and address, the certificate number(s) of such outstanding notes and the principal amount of outstanding notes tendered; (2) states that the tender is being made thereby;

33

and (3) guarantees that, within three New York Stock Exchange trading days after the applicable expiration date, the letter of transmittal, or facsimile thereof, together with the outstanding notes or a book-entry confirmation, and any other documents required by the letter of transmittal, will be deposited by the eligible guarantor institution with the exchange agent; and

• the exchange agent receives the properly completed and executed letter of transmittal or facsimile thereof, as well as certificate(s) representing all tendered outstanding notes in proper form for transfer or a book-entry confirmation of transfer of the outstanding notes into the exchange agent’s account at DTC all other documents required by the letter of transmittal within three New York Stock Exchange trading days after the applicable expiration date.

Upon request, the exchange agent will send to you a notice of guaranteed delivery if you wish to tender your outstanding notes according to the guaranteed delivery procedures.

Withdrawal Rights

Except as otherwise provided in this prospectus, you may withdraw your tender of outstanding notes at any time prior to 12:00 a.m. midnight, New York City time, on the applicable expiration date.

For a withdrawal to be effective:

• the exchange agent must receive a written notice, which may be by telegram, telex, facsimile or letter, of withdrawal at its address set forth below under “—Exchange Agent”; or

• you must comply with the appropriate procedures of DTC’s Automated Tender Offer Program system.

Any notice of withdrawal must:

• specify the name of the person who tendered the outstanding notes to be withdrawn;

• identify the outstanding notes to be withdrawn, including the certificate numbers and principal amount of the outstanding notes; and

• where certificates for outstanding notes have been transmitted, specify the name in which such outstanding notes were registered, if different from that of the withdrawing holder.

If certificates for outstanding notes have been delivered or otherwise identified to the exchange agent, then, prior to the release of such certificates, you must also submit:

• the serial numbers of the particular certificates to be withdrawn; and

• a signed notice of withdrawal with signatures guaranteed by an eligible institution unless you are an eligible guarantor institution.

If outstanding notes have been tendered pursuant to the procedures for book-entry transfer described above, any notice of withdrawal must specify the name and number of the account at the book-entry transfer facility to be credited with the withdrawn outstanding notes and otherwise comply with the procedures of the facility. We will determine all questions as to the validity, form, and eligibility, including time of receipt of notices of withdrawal and our determination will be final and binding on all parties. Any outstanding notes so withdrawn will be deemed not to have been validly tendered for exchange for purposes of the exchange offers. Any outstanding notes that have been tendered for exchange but that are not exchanged for any reason will be returned to their holder, without cost to the holder, or, in the case of book-entry transfer, the outstanding notes will be credited to an account at the book-entry transfer facility, promptly after withdrawal, rejection of tender or termination of the exchange offers. Properly withdrawn outstanding notes may be retendered by following the procedures described under “—Procedures for Tendering Outstanding Notes” above at any time on or prior to the applicable expiration date.

34

Exchange Agent

U.S. National Bank Association has been appointed as the exchange agent for the exchange offers. U.S. National Bank Association also acts as trustee under the indentures governing the notes. You should direct all executed letters of transmittal and all questions and requests for assistance, requests for additional copies of this prospectus or of letters of transmittal, and requests for notices of guaranteed delivery to the exchange agent addressed as follows:

By Registered or Certified Mail:	By Facsimile Transmission:	By Overnight Courier or Hand Delivery:
U.S. Bank National Association 60 Livingston Avenue EP-MN-WS2N St. Paul, Minnesota 55107 Attention: Specialized Finance	(651) 495-8158	U.S. Bank National Association 60 Livingston Avenue EP-MN-WS2N St. Paul, Minnesota 55107 Attention: Specialized Finance

Delivery of this instrument to an address other than as set forth above, or transmission of instructions other than as set forth above, will not constitute a valid delivery.

If you deliver the letter of transmittal to an address other than the one set forth above or transmit instructions via facsimile other than the one set forth above, that delivery or those instructions will not be effective.

Fees and Expenses

Each registration rights agreement provides that we will bear all expenses in connection with the performance of our obligations relating to the registration of the exchange notes and the conduct of the exchange offers. These expenses include registration and filing fees, accounting and legal fees and printing costs, among others. We will pay the exchange agent reasonable and customary fees for its services and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. We will also reimburse brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for customary mailing and handling expenses incurred by them in forwarding this prospectus and related documents to their clients that are holders of outstanding notes and for handling or tendering for such clients.

We have not retained any dealer-manager in connection with the exchange offers and will not pay any fee or commission to any broker, dealer, nominee or other person, other than the exchange agent, for soliciting tenders of outstanding notes pursuant to the exchange offers.

Accounting Treatment

We will record the exchange notes in our accounting records at the same carrying value as the outstanding notes, which is the aggregate principal amount as reflected in our accounting records on the date of exchanges, as the terms of the exchange notes are substantially identical to the terms of the outstanding notes. Accordingly, we will not recognize any gain or loss for accounting purposes upon the consummation of the exchange offers. We will capitalize the expenses relating to the exchange offers.

Transfer Taxes

We will pay all transfer taxes, if any, applicable to the exchanges of outstanding notes under the exchange offers. The tendering holder, however, will be required to pay any transfer taxes, whether imposed on the registered holder or any other person, if:

• certificates representing outstanding notes for principal amounts not tendered or accepted for exchange are to be delivered to, or are to be issued in the name of, any person other than the registered holder of outstanding notes tendered;

• tendered outstanding notes are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing the letter of transmittal; or

35

• a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the exchange of outstanding notes under the exchange offers.

If satisfactory evidence of payment of such taxes is not submitted with the letter of transmittal, the amount of such transfer taxes will be billed to that tendering holder.

Holders who tender their outstanding notes for exchange will not be required to pay any transfer taxes. However, holders who instruct us to register exchange notes in the name of, or request that outstanding notes not tendered or not accepted in the exchange offers be returned to, a person other than the registered tendering holder will be required to pay any applicable transfer tax.

Consequences of Failure to Exchange

If you do not exchange your outstanding notes for exchange notes under the exchange offers, your outstanding notes will remain subject to the restrictions on transfer of such outstanding notes:

• as set forth in the legend printed on the outstanding notes as a consequence of the issuance of the outstanding notes pursuant to the exemptions from, or in transactions not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws; and

• as otherwise set forth in the offering memorandum distributed in connection with the private offerings of the outstanding notes.

In general, you may not offer or sell your outstanding notes unless they are registered under the Securities Act or if the offer or sale is exempt from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Except as required by the registration rights agreements, we do not intend to register resales of the outstanding notes under the Securities Act.

Other

Participating in the exchange offers is voluntary, and you should carefully consider whether to accept. You are urged to consult your financial and tax advisors in making your own decision on what action to take.

We may in the future seek to acquire untendered outstanding notes in open market or privately negotiated transactions, through subsequent exchange offers or otherwise. We have no present plans to acquire any outstanding notes that are not tendered in the exchange offers or to file a registration statement to permit resales of any untendered outstanding notes.

• are general unsecured obligations of the Issuers;

• are pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future senior Indebtedness of the Issuers, including the Issuers’ 6.125% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”) and Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement;

• are senior in right of payment to any future subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuers; and

• are unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantors on a senior unsecured basis.

However, the 2020 Notes are effectively subordinated to all secured Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, which is secured by substantially all of the assets of TLLP and the Guarantors, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such Indebtedness and structurally subordinated to any liabilities of any Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors.

As of June 30, 2013, after giving effect to the Transactions, our total outstanding long-term debt, including current maturities, would have been approximately $908.9 million, and we would have had no borrowings and approximately $0.3 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Exchange Notes—The exchange notes will be effectively subordinated to our and our subsidiary guarantors’ existing and future secured indebtedness, including indebtedness under our revolving credit facility, in each case to the extent of the value of the property securing such indebtedness.”

The 2020 Note Guarantees

Each guarantee of the 2020 Notes (each, a “2020 Note Guarantee”):

• is a general unsecured obligation of the Guarantor;

• is pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future senior Indebtedness of that Guarantor, including such Guarantor’s guarantee of the 2021 Notes and Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement; and

• is senior in right of payment to any future subordinated Indebtedness of that Guarantor.

However, the 2020 Note Guarantees are effectively subordinated to all secured Indebtedness of the Guarantors, including their guarantees of Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing those guarantees and structurally subordinated to any liabilities of any Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors.

The 2020 Notes are guaranteed by all of our wholly-owned Domestic Subsidiaries (other than Finance Corp.) that are guarantors under a Credit Facility. As of the Issue Date, all of our Subsidiaries (other than Finance Corp.) were Guarantors. Under certain circumstances described below under the subheading “—Certain Covenants—Additional Guarantors,” in the future one or more of our newly created or acquired Subsidiaries may not guarantee the 2020 Notes. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of our non-guaranteeing Subsidiaries, such Subsidiaries will pay the holders of their debt and their trade creditors before they will be able to distribute any of their assets to us.

As of the Issue Date, all of our Subsidiaries were “Restricted Subsidiaries.” However, under the circumstances described below under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries,” we are permitted to designate certain of our Subsidiaries as “Unrestricted Subsidiaries.” Our Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to the restrictive covenants in the 2020 Notes Indenture. Our Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not guarantee the 2020 Notes.

Finance Corp.

Finance Corp. is a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of TLLP that has been formed for the purpose of facilitating the offerings of the notes by acting as co-issuer. Finance Corp. is nominally capitalized and does not have any operations or revenues. As a result, prospective purchasers of the 2020 Notes should not expect Finance Corp. to participate in servicing the interest and Special Interest, if any, and principal obligations on the 2020 Notes. See “—Certain Covenants—Limitations on Finance Corp. Activities.”

Principal, Maturity and Interest

The Issuers issued $350.0 million in aggregate principal amount of their 2020 Notes on September 14, 2012. The Issuers may issue additional 2020 Notes under the 2020 Notes Indenture from time to time after this offering. Any issuance of additional 2020 Notes is subject to all of the covenants in the 2020 Indenture, including the covenant described below under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity.” The 2020 Notes and any additional 2020 Notes subsequently issued under the 2020 Notes Indenture, together with any exchange notes issued in respect of the additional offerings of the notes, are treated as a single class for all purposes under the 2020 Notes Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. Unless the context otherwise requires, references to “2020 Notes” for all purposes of the 2020 Notes Indenture and this “Description of the 2020 Notes” include any additional offerings of the notes that are actually issued. The Issuers issued the 2020 Notes in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The 2020 Notes will mature on October 1, 2020.

Interest on the 2020 Notes accrues at the rate of 5.875% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1. The first payment was on April 1, 2013. The Issuers will make each interest

38

payment to the holders of record on the immediately preceding March 15 and September 15. Interest on the 2020 Notes began to accrue from September 14, 2012.

Interest on the 2020 Notes accrues from the date it was most recently paid. Special Interest may accrue on the 2020 Notes as liquidated damages in certain circumstances described in this prospectus and all references to “interest” in this description include any Special Interest that may be payable on the 2020 Notes. Interest is computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

If an interest payment date falls on a day that is not a business day, the interest payment to be made on such interest payment date will be made on the next succeeding business day with the same force and effect as if made on such interest payment date, and no additional interest will accrue solely as a result of such delayed payment.

Methods of Receiving Payments on the 2020 Notes

If a holder of 2020 Notes has given wire transfer instructions to TLLP, the Issuers will pay all principal, interest and Special Interest, if any, and premium, if any, on that holder’s 2020 Notes in accordance with those instructions. All other payments on the 2020 Notes will be made at the office or agency of the paying agent and registrar within the City and State of New York unless the Issuers elect to make interest payments by check mailed to the noteholders at their address set forth in the register of holders.

Paying Agent and Registrar for the 2020 Notes

The trustee acts as paying agent and registrar for the 2020 Notes. The Issuers may change the paying agent or registrar without prior notice to the holders of the 2020 Notes, and TLLP, Finance Corp. or any of TLLP’s other Subsidiaries may act as paying agent or registrar.

Transfer and Exchange

A holder may transfer or exchange 2020 Notes in accordance with the provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture. The registrar and the trustee may require a holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents in connection with a transfer of 2020 Notes. Holders will be required to pay all taxes due on transfer or exchange. The Issuers will not be required to transfer or exchange any 2020 Note selected for redemption. Also, the Issuers will not be required to transfer or exchange any 2020 Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of 2020 Notes to be redeemed.

2020 Note Guarantees

All of our existing Subsidiaries (other than Finance Corp.) jointly and severally guarantee the 2020 Notes, and will guarantee the exchange notes, on a senior unsecured basis. Additional Domestic Subsidiaries of TLLP will be required to guarantee the 2020 Notes under the circumstances described under “—Certain Covenants—Additional Guarantors.” These 2020 Note Guarantees are joint and several obligations of the Guarantors. The obligations of each Guarantor under its 2020 Note Guarantee are limited as necessary to prevent that 2020 Note Guarantee from constituting a fraudulent conveyance under applicable law. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Exchange Notes—The subsidiary guarantees could be deemed fraudulent conveyances under certain circumstances, and a court may try to subordinate or avoid the subsidiary guarantee.”

Except as set forth in the next paragraph, a Guarantor may not sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the resulting, transferee or surviving Person), another Person, other than TLLP or another Guarantor, unless:

(1) immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and

39

(2) either:

(a) the Person acquiring the assets in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than TLLP or another Guarantor), assumes all obligations of that Guarantor under the 2020 Notes Indenture and its 2020 Note Guarantee and, if then in effect, the 2020 Notes Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to an agreement reasonably satisfactory to the trustee; or

(b) the Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied in accordance with the applicable provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture.

The 2020 Note Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released:

(1) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP, if the sale or other disposition does not violate the “Asset Sale” provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture;

(2) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of that Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP, if the sale or other disposition does not violate the “Asset Sale” provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture;

(3) if TLLP designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the applicable provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture;

(4) if that Guarantor ceases to guarantee any Indebtedness of any Issuer under a Credit Facility; provided, however, that if, at any time following such release, that Guarantor later guarantees Indebtedness of any Issuer under a Credit Facility, then such Guarantor shall be required to provide a 2020 Note Guarantee at such time;

(5) upon the liquidation or dissolution of such Guarantor provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred that is continuing; or

(6) upon Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance as described below under the caption “—Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance” or upon satisfaction and discharge of the 2020 Notes Indenture as described below under the caption “—Satisfaction and Discharge.”

Optional Redemption

At any time prior to October 1, 2015, the Issuers may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2020 Notes (including any additional notes) issued under the 2020 Notes Indenture at a redemption price of 105.875% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the redemption date), with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings; provided that:

(1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of 2020 Notes originally issued under the 2020 Notes Indenture (excluding 2020 Notes held by TLLP and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and

(2) the redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering.

Except pursuant to the preceding paragraph and the penultimate paragraph of this section relating to optional redemption, the 2020 Notes are not redeemable at the Issuers’ option prior to October 1, 2016. The Issuers are not, however, prohibited from acquiring the 2020 Notes by means other than a redemption, whether pursuant to a tender offer, open market purchase or otherwise, so long as the acquisition does not violate the terms of the 2020 Notes Indenture.

40

On or after October 1, 2016, the Issuers may redeem all or a part of the 2020 Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth below plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, on the 2020 Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on October 1 of each year indicated below, subject to the rights of holders of 2020 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date:

Year	Percentage
2016		102.938	%
2017		101.469	%
2018 and thereafter		100.000	%

At any time prior to October 1, 2016, the Issuers may also redeem all or a part of the 2020 Notes, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of 2020 Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, thereon to the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”), subject to the rights of holders of 2020 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. The notice need not set forth the Applicable Premium but only the manner of calculation of the redemption price. The 2020 Notes Indenture provides that, with respect to any such redemption, the Issuers will notify the trustee of the Applicable Premium with respect to the 2020 Notes promptly after the calculation and that the trustee will not be responsible for such calculation.

Unless the Issuers default in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the 2020 Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date.

Mandatory Redemption

Neither of the Issuers is required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the 2020 Notes.

Selection and Notice

If less than all of the 2020 Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the trustee will select 2020 Notes for redemption as follows:

(1) if the 2020 Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the 2020 Notes are listed; or

(2) on a pro rata basis to the extent practicable; or

(3) if the 2020 Notes are not listed on any national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or such other similar method in accordance with the procedures of DTC.

No 2020 Notes of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part. Notices of redemption will be mailed by first class mail at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of 2020 Notes to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the 2020 Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the 2020 Notes Indenture. Any redemption or notice of redemption may, at the Issuers’ discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent and, in the case of a redemption with the net cash proceeds of an Equity Offering, be given prior to the completion of the related Equity Offering.

If any 2020 Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that 2020 Note will state the portion of the principal amount of that 2020 Note that is to be redeemed. A new 2020 Note in principal

41

amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original 2020 Note will be issued in the name of the holder of 2020 Notes upon cancellation of the original 2020 Note. 2020 Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption, unless the redemption is subject to a condition precedent that is not satisfied or waived. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on 2020 Notes or portions of 2020 Notes called for redemption.

Repurchase at the Option of Holders

Change of Control Triggering Event

If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, the Issuers will make an offer to each holder of 2020 Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that holder’s 2020 Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth in the 2020 Notes Indenture. In the Change of Control Offer, the Issuers will offer a payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of 2020 Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, on the 2020 Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”), subject to the rights of holders of 2020 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuers will mail a notice to each holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase 2020 Notes on the “Change of Control Payment Date” specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, pursuant to the procedures required by the 2020 Notes Indenture and described in such notice. The Issuers will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the 2020 Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture, the Issuers will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture by virtue of such compliance.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuers will, to the extent lawful:

(1) accept for payment all 2020 Notes or portions of 2020 Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(2) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all 2020 Notes or portions of 2020 Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; and

(3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the trustee the 2020 Notes accepted for purchase together with an officers’ certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of 2020 Notes or portions of 2020 Notes being purchased by the Issuers.

The paying agent will promptly mail to each holder of 2020 Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such 2020 Notes (or, if all the 2020 Notes are then in global form, it will make such payment through the facilities of DTC), and the trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each holder a new 2020 Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the 2020 Notes surrendered, if any; provided, that each new 2020 Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Issuers will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

The provisions described above that require the Issuers to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control Triggering Event are applicable whether or not any other provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture are applicable, except as set forth under the captions “—Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance” and “—Satisfaction and Discharge.” Except as described above with respect to a Change of Control Triggering

42

Event, the 2020 Notes Indenture does not contain provisions that permit the holders of the 2020 Notes to require that the Issuers repurchase or redeem the 2020 Notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction.

The Issuers will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the 2020 Notes Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuers and purchases all 2020 Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer or (2) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to the 2020 Notes Indenture as described above under the caption “—Optional Redemption,” unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price.

A Change of Control Offer may be made with respect to the 2020 Notes in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, and conditioned upon the occurrence of such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement for the Change of Control Triggering Event is in place at the time of making the Change of Control Offer.

The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of “all or substantially all” of the properties or assets of TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of 2020 Notes to require the Issuers to repurchase its 2020 Notes as a result of a sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of less than all of the assets of TLLP and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole to another Person or group may be uncertain.

In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2020 Notes tender and do not withdraw such 2020 Notes in a Change of Control Offer and TLLP (or the third party making the Change of Control Offer as provided above) purchases all of the 2020 Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such holders, TLLP or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all of the 2020 Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest on the 2020 Notes that remain outstanding to the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the redemption date).

Asset Sales

TLLP will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

(1) TLLP (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at least equal to the Fair Market Value (such Fair Market Value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale and which shall give effect to the assumption by another Person of any liabilities as provided for in clause (a) of the following paragraph) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and

(2) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents.

For purposes of the preceding clause (2) of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

(a) any liabilities, as shown on TLLP’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the 2020 Notes or any 2020 Note Guarantees) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary novation agreement that releases TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability;

43

(b) any securities, 2020 Notes or other obligations received by TLLP or any such Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such transaction that within 90 days after the Asset Sale (subject to ordinary settlement periods) are converted by TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents, to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received in that conversion;

(c) any stock or assets of the kind referred to in clauses (2) or (4) of the next succeeding paragraph received by TLLP or any such Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such transaction; and

(d) accounts receivable of a business retained by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, following the sale of such business, provided such accounts receivable (x) are not past due more than 60 days and (y) do not have a payment date greater than 90 days from the date of the invoices creating such accounts receivable;

provided that any Asset Sale pursuant to a condemnation, appropriation or other similar taking, including by deed in lieu of condemnation, or pursuant to the foreclosure or other enforcement of a Lien incurred not in violation of the covenant described below under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Liens” or exercise by the related lienholder of rights with respect thereto, including by deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, shall not be required to satisfy the conditions set forth in clauses (1) and (2) of this paragraph.

Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, TLLP (or any Restricted Subsidiary) may apply such Net Proceeds at its option to any combination of the following:

(1) to prepay, repay, redeem or repurchase Senior Indebtedness of TLLP and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(2) to acquire a controlling interest in another business or all or substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock or operating line of, another business, in each case engaged in a Permitted Business, if, after giving effect to any such acquisition of Capital Stock, the Permitted Business is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP;

(3) to make capital expenditures; or

(4) to acquire other assets that are not classified as current assets under GAAP and that are used or useful in a Permitted Business;

provided that, in the case of clauses (2), (3) and (4) above, a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as TLLP (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) enters into such commitment with the good faith expectation that such Net Proceeds will be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days of such commitment (an “Acceptable Commitment”);provided further that if any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such Net Proceeds are applied, but after the 365th day after the receipt of such Net Proceeds, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds.

Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, TLLP or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by the 2020 Notes Indenture.

Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the second paragraph of this covenant will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” Within five days after the date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0 million (or, at the Issuers’ option, any earlier date), the Issuers will make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to all holders of 2020 Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that ispari passu with the 2020 Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in the 2020 Notes Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase the maximum principal amount of 2020 Notes and such otherpari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount (or accreted value) thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. If

44

any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the 2020 Notes Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of 2020 Notes and otherpari passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the trustee will select the 2020 Notes and the representative of such otherpari passu Indebtedness will select such otherpari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

TLLP will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of 2020 Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Asset Sale provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture, TLLP will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Asset Sale provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture by virtue of such compliance.

The Credit Agreement and the agreements governing TLLP’s other Indebtedness contain, and future agreements governing TLLP’s Indebtedness may contain prohibitions of certain events, including events that would constitute a Change of Control Triggering Event or an Asset Sale and including repurchases of or other prepayments in respect of the 2020 Notes. The exercise by the holders of 2020 Notes of their right to require the Issuers to repurchase the 2020 Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event or an Asset Sale could cause a default under these other agreements, even if the Change of Control Triggering Event or Asset Sale itself does not, due to the financial effect of such repurchases on TLLP or other circumstances. In the event a Change of Control Triggering Event or Asset Sale occurs at a time when TLLP is prohibited from purchasing 2020 Notes, TLLP could seek the consent of the lenders of the borrowings or the counterparties to agreements containing such prohibition to the purchase of 2020 Notes or could attempt to refinance such borrowings. If TLLP does not obtain a consent or repay those borrowings, TLLP will remain prohibited from purchasing 2020 Notes. In that case, TLLP’s failure to purchase tendered 2020 Notes would constitute an Event of Default under the 2020 Notes Indenture which could, in all likelihood, constitute a default under the other indebtedness. Finally, the Issuers’ ability to pay cash to the holders of 2020 Notes upon a repurchase may be limited by TLLP’s then existing financial resources. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Exchange Notes—We may not be able to finance a change of control offer as required by the indentures.”

Certain Covenants

Covenant Termination

If at any time (a) the 2020 Notes are assigned an Investment Grade Rating from both Rating Agencies and (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the 2020 Notes Indenture (the “Termination Date”), TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries will no longer be subject to the provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture described above under the caption “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Asset Sales” and under the following headings under the caption “—Certain Covenants”:

• “—Restricted Payments”;

• “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity”;

• “—Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries”;

• clause (4) of the covenant described below under the caption “ —Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets”;

• “—Transactions with Affiliates”; and

• “—Additional Guarantors.”

45

However, TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries will remain subject to the provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture described above under the caption “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders”—Change of Control Triggering Event,” and the following provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture described in:

• “—Certain Covenants”—Liens”;

• “—Certain Covenants”—Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets” (other than clause (4) of such covenant); and

• “—Certain Covenants”— Reports”.

No Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after the Termination Date. There can be no assurance that the 2020 Notes will ever achieve or maintain an Investment Grade Rating.

Restricted Payments

TLLP will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

(1) declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution on account of TLLP’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests (including, without limitation, any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) or to the direct or indirect holders of TLLP’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests in their capacity as such (other than distributions or dividends payable solely in Equity Interests of TLLP (other than Disqualified Equity) and other than distributions or dividends payable solely to TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary);

(4) make any Restricted Investment

(all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and either:

(1) if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for TLLP’s Reference Period is not less than 1.75 to 1.00, such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), (9), (10) and (11), of the next succeeding paragraph) during the quarter in which such Restricted Payment is made, is less than the sum, without duplication, of:

(a) Available Cash from Operating Surplus as of the end of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter; plus

(b) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds, or the Fair Market Value of assets or property, received by TLLP since the Issue Date as a contribution to its common equity capital or from the issue or sale of (A) Equity Interests of TLLP (other than Disqualified Equity) or (B) convertible or exchangeable Disqualified Equity or convertible or exchangeable debt securities of TLLP that have been converted into or exchanged for such Equity Interests (other than Equity Interests (or Disqualified Equity or debt securities) sold to a Subsidiary of TLLP); plus

(d) the net reduction in Restricted Investments made after the Issue Date resulting from dividends, repayments of loans or advances, or other transfers of assets in each case to TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries from any Person (including, without limitation, Unrestricted Subsidiaries) or from redesignations of Unrestricted Subsidiaries as Restricted Subsidiaries, to the extent such amounts have not been included in Available Cash from Operating Surplus for any period commencing on or after the Issue Date (items (b), (c) and (d) being referred to as “Incremental Funds”); minus

(e) the aggregate amount of Incremental Funds previously expended pursuant to this clause (1) and clause (2) below; or

(2) if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for TLLP’s Reference Period is less than 1.75 to 1.00, such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), (9), (10) and (11) of the next succeeding paragraph) during the quarter in which such Restricted Payment is made (such Restricted Payments for purposes of this clause (2) meaning only distributions on common units and subordinated units of TLLP, plus the related distribution on the general partner interest), is less than the sum, without duplication, of:

(a) $100.0 million less the aggregate amount of all Restricted Payments made by TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to this clause (2)(a) during the period ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date of such Restricted Payment and beginning on the Issue Date; plus

(b) Incremental Funds to the extent not previously expended pursuant to this clause (2) or clause (1) above.

The preceding provisions will not prohibit:

(1) the payment of any dividend or distribution or the consummation of an irrevocable redemption of Subordinated Obligations within 60 days after the date of the declaration of such dividend or the delivery of the irrevocable notice of redemption, as the case may be, if at the date of declaration or the date on which such irrevocable notice is delivered, such dividend or redemption would have complied with the provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture (assuming, in the case of a redemption payment, the giving of the notice of such redemption payment would have been deemed to be a Restricted Payment at such time and such deemed Restricted Payment would have been permitted at such time);

(2) the making of any Restricted Payment in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of, a substantially concurrent (a) capital contribution to TLLP from any Person (other than a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP) or (b) sale or issuance (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP) of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Equity) of TLLP, with a sale or issuance being deemed substantially concurrent if such Restricted Payment occurs not more than 120 days after such sale; provided that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any such Restricted Payment will be excluded or deducted from the calculation of Available Cash from Operating Surplus and Incremental Funds;

(3) the making of any principal payment on, or the defeasance, redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of, any Subordinated Obligation with the net cash proceeds from an incurrence of, or in exchange for, Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness;

(4) the payment of any distribution or dividend by a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP to the holders of such Restricted Subsidiary’s Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Equity) on a pro rata basis;

(5) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Equity Interests of TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP held by any current or former officer, director, consultant or employee

47

of the General Partner, TLLP or any of their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to any equity subscription agreement or plan, stock or unit option agreement, shareholders’ agreement, employment agreement or similar agreement; provided that the aggregate price paid for all such repurchased, redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests may not exceed $5.0 million in any calendar year (with up to $2.0 million of such amount that is unused in any calendar year to be carried forward to successive calendar years and added to such amount); provided further, that such amount in any calendar year may be increased by an amount not to exceed (a) the cash proceeds received by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries from sales of Equity Interests of TLLP to members of management, employees or directors of the General Partner, TLLP or their respective Subsidiaries that occurs after the Issue Date (to the extent the cash proceeds from the sale of such Equity Interests have not otherwise been applied to the payment of Restricted Payments by virtue of clauses (1)(b) or (2)(b) of the preceding paragraph), plus (b) the cash proceeds of key man life insurance policies received by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries after the Issue Date;

(6) payments or dividends of Disqualified Equity issued pursuant to the covenant described under “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity”;

(7) repurchases of Equity Interests deemed to occur upon the cashless exercise of stock options, warrants or other convertible securities if such Equity Interests represent a portion of the exercise price of such options, warrants or other convertible securities;

(8) cash payments in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares or units, or the purchase by TLLP of fractional shares or units, in connection with (a) the exercise of warrants, options or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Capital Stock of TLLP or (b) stock or unit dividends, splits or combinations or business combinations;

(9) in connection with an acquisition by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, the return to TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Equity Interests of TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries constituting a portion of the purchase consideration in settlement of indemnification claims or pursuant to purchase price adjustments under the acquisition agreement;

(10) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Subordinated Obligations pursuant to provisions similar to those described under the captions “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Change of Control Triggering Event” or “—Asset Sales”;provided that all 2020 Notes tendered by holders in connection with a Change of Control Offer or Asset Sale Offer, as applicable, have been repurchased, redeemed or acquired for value; and

(11) the issuance of common Equity Interests upon the conversion of subordinated Equity Interests;

provided further, that, with respect to clauses (5), (6) and (10), no Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the Fair Market Value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. For the purposes of determining compliance with this “Restricted Payments” covenant, in the event that a Restricted Payment meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Restricted Payments described in the preceding clauses (1)-(11), TLLP will be permitted to divide or classify (or later divide, classify or reclassify in whole or in part in its sole discretion) such Restricted Payment in any manner that complies with this covenant.

On July 18, 2013, TLLP declared a distribution of $26.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. Such distribution will be payable on August 14, 2013 to unitholders of record on August 2, 2013. Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the minimum quarterly distribution for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was $16.2 million; or $0.3375 per unit.

Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity

TLLP will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect

48

to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and TLLP will not issue any Disqualified Equity and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any Disqualified Equity; provided, however, that TLLP and any Restricted Subsidiary may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) and TLLP and any Restricted Subsidiary may issue Disqualified Equity, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for TLLP’s Reference Period immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Equity is issued, as the case may be, would have been at least 2.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Equity had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such Reference Period.

The first paragraph of this covenant will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”):

(1) the incurrence by TLLP and any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness pursuant to one or more Credit Facilities in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (1) (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) not to exceed the greater of (a) $450.0 million and (b) the sum of $330.0 million and 20.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets;

(2) the incurrence by TLLP, Finance Corp. and its Restricted Subsidiaries of Existing Indebtedness;

(3) the incurrence by TLLP, Finance Corp. and the Guarantors of Indebtedness represented by the 2020 Notes and the related 2020 Note Guarantees to be issued on the Issue Date and the 2020 Exchange Notes and the related 2020 Note Guarantees to be issued pursuant to the 2020 Notes Registration Rights Agreement in exchange therefor;

(4) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations, Synthetic Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations (including any Acquired Debt), in each case, incurred in connection with the purchase of, or for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of construction, improvement or development of, property, plant or equipment used or useful in the business of TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and related financing costs, and Attributable Debt in respect of sale and leaseback transactions, in an aggregate principal amount, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (4), at any time outstanding not to exceed the greater of (a) $30.0 million and (b) 5.0% of TLLP’s Consolidated Net Tangible Assets;

(5) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by the 2020 Notes Indenture to be incurred under the first paragraph of this covenant or clauses (2), (3), or (13) of this paragraph or this clause (5);

(6) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among TLLP and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that:

(a) if TLLP or any Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the payee is not TLLP or a Guarantor, such Indebtedness must be unsecured and expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations then due with respect to the 2020 Notes, in the case of TLLP, or the 2020 Note Guarantee, in the case of a Guarantor; and

(b)(i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP, will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (6);

(7) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations;

49

(8) the guarantee by TLLP or any of the Guarantors of Indebtedness of TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP or the Indebtedness incurred by Joint Ventures constituting Permitted Investments; provided that if the Indebtedness being guaranteed is subordinated to or pari passu with the 2020 Notes or 2020 Note Guarantees, then the Guarantee shall be subordinated or pari passu, as applicable, to the same extent as the Indebtedness guaranteed;

(9) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness in respect of workers’ compensation or similar liabilities, health or other types of social security benefits, unemployment or other insurance or self-insurance obligations, insurance contracts, reclamation, statutory obligations, bankers’ acceptances, and bid, performance, advance, payment, deposit, appeal and surety bonds in the ordinary course of business, including guarantees and obligations respecting standby letters of credit supporting such obligations, to the extent not drawn (in each case other than an obligation for money borrowed) and replacements of any of the foregoing;

(10) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument inadvertently drawn against insufficient funds, so long as such Indebtedness is covered within five business days;

(11) the issuance by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Disqualified Equity to TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be;provided,however, that:

(a) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests of a Restricted Subsidiary that results in any such Disqualified Equity being held, directly or indirectly, by a Person other than TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP; and

(b) any sale or other transfer of any such Disqualified Equity to a Person that is not either TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP,

will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an issuance of such Disqualified Equity by TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary that was not permitted by this clause;

(12) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Acquisition Indebtedness;

(13) the incurrence by TLLP of Indebtedness in the ordinary course of business under documentary letters of credit, which are to be repaid in full not more than one year after the date on which such Indebtedness was originally incurred to finance the purchase of goods by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(14) the incurrence of Indebtedness arising from agreements with TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price, earn-outs, or similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the disposition or acquisition of any business, assets or a Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of the 2020 Notes Indenture, other than guarantees of Indebtedness incurred or assumed by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or Subsidiary for the purpose of financing such acquisition; and

(15) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed the greater of (a) $30.0 million and (b) 5.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

TLLP will not incur, and will not permit any Guarantor to incur, any Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of TLLP or such Guarantor unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the 2020 Notes and the applicable 2020 Note Guarantee on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of TLLP solely by virtue of being unsecured or by virtue of being secured on a first or junior Lien basis.

For purposes of determining compliance with this “Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity” covenant, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (15) above, or is

50

entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this covenant, TLLP will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this covenant; provided that Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement outstanding on the Issue Date was deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (1) of the definition of Permitted Debt.

The accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification of preferred stock as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles, and the payment of dividends on Disqualified Equity in the form of additional shares of the same class of Disqualified Equity will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Equity for purposes of this covenant. Notwithstanding any other provision of this covenant, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this covenant shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values.

The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be:

(1) the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount;

(2) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; and

(3) in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the lesser of:

(a) the Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and

(b) the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person.

Liens

TLLP will not and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) securing Indebtedness upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, unless:

(1) in the case of Liens securing Subordinated Obligations of TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary, the 2020 Notes or 2020 Note Guarantees, as applicable, are contemporaneously secured by a Lien on such property or assets on a senior basis to the Subordinated Obligations so secured with the same priority that the 2020 Notes or 2020 Note Guarantees, as applicable, have to such Subordinated Obligations until such time as such Subordinated Obligations are no longer so secured by a Lien; and

(2) in the case of Liens securing Senior Indebtedness of TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary, the 2020 Notes or 2020 Note Guarantees, as applicable, are contemporaneously secured by a Lien on such property or assets on an equal and ratable basis with the Senior Indebtedness so secured until such time as such Senior Indebtedness is no longer so secured by a Lien.

Any Lien on property or assets of TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries created for the benefit of holders of the 2020 Notes pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall provide by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged at such time as there are no other Liens of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) on such property or assets securing Indebtedness.

Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries

TLLP will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP that is not a Guarantor to:

(1) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Equity Interests to TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any

51

Indebtedness owed to TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that the priority of any preferred equity or similar Equity Interest in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to the payment of dividends or liquidating distributions on common equity shall not be deemed to be a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock;

(2) make loans or advances to TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

(3) sell, lease or transfer any of its properties or assets to TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

However, the preceding restrictions do not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

(1) agreements as in effect on the Issue Date and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements or the Indebtedness to which they relate; provided that the amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend, distribution and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements on the Issue Date;

(2) the 2020 Notes Indenture, the 2020 Notes and the 2020 Note Guarantees;

(3) agreements governing other Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under the provisions of the covenant described above under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity” and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that the restrictions therein are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the 2020 Notes Indenture, the 2020 Notes and the 2020 Note Guarantees;

(4) applicable law, rule, regulation or order;

(5) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Equity Interest of a Person acquired by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Equity Interest was incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of the 2020 Notes Indenture to be incurred;

(6) customary non-assignment provisions in contracts, agreements, licenses and leases entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(7) purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business and Capital Lease Obligations that impose restrictions on the property purchased or leased of the nature described in clause (3) of the preceding paragraph;

(8) any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary or assets of such Restricted Subsidiary that contains any such restrictions on that Restricted Subsidiary pending such sale or other disposition;

(9) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced;

(10) Liens permitted to be incurred under the provisions of the covenant described above under the caption “—Liens” that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens;

(11) provisions limiting the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, sale-leaseback agreements, stock sale agreements and other similar agreements;

(12) any agreement or instrument relating to any property or assets acquired after the Issue Date, so long as such encumbrance or restriction relates only to the property or assets so acquired and is not and was not created in anticipation of such acquisitions;

52

(13) other Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity or preferred securities permitted to be incurred subsequent to the Issue Date pursuant to the provisions of the covenant described under “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity;” provided that, the encumbrances and restrictions contained therein will not materially impair TLLP’s ability to make payments under the 2020 Notes when due;

(14) encumbrances or restrictions contained in, or in respect of, Hedging Obligations permitted under the 2020 Notes Indenture from time to time;

(15) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business; and

(16) secured Indebtedness that limits the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets securing such Indebtedness and any related encumbrance or restriction contained in security agreements, mortgages or purchase money agreements.

Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets

Neither of the Issuers may, directly or indirectly: (1) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or not such Issuer is the surviving entity) or (2) sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Issuers and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to another Person, unless:

(1) either: (a) such Issuer is the surviving entity or (b) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made is a Person organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia; provided, however, that Finance Corp. may not consolidate or merge with or into any Person other than a corporation satisfying such requirement so long as TLLP is not a corporation;

(2) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made assumes all the obligations of such Issuer under the 2020 Notes, the 2020 Notes Indenture and, if then in effect, the 2020 Notes Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the trustee;

(3) immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists;

(4) in the case of a transaction involving TLLP and not Finance Corp., TLLP or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than TLLP), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made will, (a) on the date of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable Reference Period, be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the covenant described above under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity”; or (b) have a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, on the date of such transaction and after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable Reference Period, not less than the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of TLLP immediately prior to such transaction; and

(5) such Issuer has delivered to the trustee an officers’ certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or disposition and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with the 2020 Notes Indenture.

Upon any transaction or series of related transactions that are of the type described in, and are effected in accordance with, the foregoing paragraph, the surviving Person (if other than such Issuer) shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, such Issuer under the 2020 Notes Indenture and the 2020 Notes with the same effect as if such surviving Person had been named as such Issuer in the 2020 Notes

53

Indenture, and when a surviving Person duly assumes all of the obligations and covenants of such Issuer pursuant to the 2020 Notes Indenture and the 2020 Notes, the predecessor Person shall be relieved of all such obligations.

This “Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets” covenant will not apply to any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition of assets between or among TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries. Clauses (3) and (4) of the first paragraph of this covenant will not apply to any merger or consolidation of either Issuer (1) with or into one of TLLP’s Restricted Subsidiaries for any purpose or (2) with or into an Affiliate solely for the purpose of reincorporating such Issuer in another jurisdiction.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, TLLP is permitted to reorganize as any other form of entity in accordance with the procedures established in the 2020 Notes Indenture; provided that:

(1) the reorganization involves the conversion (by merger, sale, contribution or exchange of assets or otherwise) of TLLP into a form of entity other than a limited partnership formed under Delaware law;

(2) the entity so formed by or resulting from such reorganization is an entity organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

(3) the entity so formed by or resulting from such reorganization assumes all the Obligations of TLLP under the 2020 Notes, the 2020 Notes Indenture and, if then in effect, the 2020 Notes Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the trustee;

(4) immediately after such reorganization no Default or Event of Default exists; and

(5) such reorganization is not adverse to the holders of the 2020 Notes (for purposes of this clause (5) it is stipulated that such reorganization shall not be considered adverse to the holders of the 2020 Notes solely because the successor or survivor of such reorganization (a) is subject to federal or state income taxation as an entity or (b) is considered to be an “includible corporation” of an affiliated group of corporations within the meaning of Section 1504(b) of the Code, or any similar state or local law).

Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, in certain circumstances there may be a degree of uncertainty as to whether a particular transaction would involve “all or substantially all” of the properties or assets of a Person.

Transactions with Affiliates

TLLP will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of TLLP (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”) if such Affiliate Transaction involves aggregate consideration in excess of $1.0 million, unless:

(1) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to TLLP or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could have been obtained in a comparable transaction by TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person or, if no comparable transaction is available with which to compare such Affiliate Transaction, such Affiliate Transaction is otherwise fair to TLLP or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view; and

(2) TLLP delivers to the trustee with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $25.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of the General Partner set forth in an officers’ certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (1) above and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by either the Conflicts Committee of the Board of Directors of the General Partner (so long as the members of the Conflicts Committee approving the Affiliate Transaction are disinterested) or a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the General Partner.

54

The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of the prior paragraph:

(1) reasonable fees and compensation paid to or for the benefit of any employee, officer or director of TLLP, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or the General Partner, and any employment agreement, customary benefit program or arrangement (including vacation plans, health and life insurance plans, deferred compensation plans and retirement or savings and similar plans), equity award, equity option or equity appreciation agreement or plan, officer or director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by TLLP, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or the General Partner existing on the Issue Date, or entered into thereafter in the ordinary course of business, and any indemnities or other transactions permitted or required by bylaw, statutory provisions or any of the foregoing agreements, plans or arrangements;

(2) transactions between or among TLLP and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(3) transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of TLLP) that is an Affiliate of TLLP solely because TLLP owns, directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary, an Equity Interest in, or controls, such Person;

(4) any issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Equity) of TLLP to Affiliates of TLLP;

(5) Restricted Payments or Permitted Investments that do not violate the provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture described above under the caption “—Restricted Payments”;

(6) customary compensation, indemnification and other benefits made available to officers, directors or employees of TLLP, a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP or the General Partner, including reimbursement or advancement of out-of-pocket expenses and provisions of officers’ and directors’ liability insurance;

(7) in the case of gathering, transportation, marketing, hedging, production handling, operating, construction, terminalling, storage, lease, platform use, or other operational contracts, any such contracts that are entered into in the ordinary course of business on terms substantially similar to those contained in similar contracts entered into by TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary and third parties, or if neither TLLP nor any Restricted Subsidiary has entered into a similar contract with a third party, that the terms are no less favorable than those available from third parties on an arm’s-length basis, as determined by the Board of Directors of the General Partner;

(8) loans or advances to employees in the ordinary course of business not to exceed $1.0 million in the aggregate at any one time outstanding;

(9) the existence of, or the performance by TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary of its obligations under the terms of, any written agreement in effect on the Issue Date, as such agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time and any similar agreements which it may enter into thereafter; provided, however, that the existence of, or the performance by TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary of its obligations under, any future amendment to such agreements or under any such similar agreements shall only be permitted by this clause (9) to the extent that the terms of any such amendment or new agreement, taken as a whole, are not less favorable to the Holders in any material respect as compared to the terms of the agreement in effect on the Issue Date;

(10) any transaction in which TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the trustee a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or that such transaction meets the requirements of clause (1) of the preceding paragraph;

(11) guarantees of performance by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business, except for guarantees of Indebtedness in respect of borrowed money;

(12) (a) guarantees by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of performance of obligations of Unrestricted Subsidiaries or Joint Ventures in the ordinary course of business, except for guarantees of

55

Indebtedness in respect of borrowed money, and (b) pledges by TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary of Capital Stock in Unrestricted Subsidiaries or Joint Ventures for the benefit of lenders or other creditors of Unrestricted Subsidiaries or Joint Ventures as contemplated by clause (13) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” with respect to clause (b) so long as any such transaction, if involving aggregate consideration in excess of $25.0 million, has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the General Partner;

(13) any transactions between TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Person, a director of which is also a director of TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such director abstains from voting as a director of TLLP or the Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, in connection with the approval of the transaction; and

(14) any purchase or other acquisition or related transaction pursuant to the Omnibus Agreement.

Limitations on Finance Corp. Activities

Finance Corp. may not incur Indebtedness unless (1) TLLP is a borrower, issuer, co-issuer or guarantor of such Indebtedness or (2) the net proceeds of such Indebtedness are loaned to TLLP, used to acquire outstanding debt securities issued by TLLP or used to repay Indebtedness of TLLP as permitted under the covenant described above under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity.” Finance Corp. may not engage in any business not related directly or indirectly to obtaining money or arranging financing for TLLP or its Restricted Subsidiaries.

Additional Guarantors

If, after the Issue Date, any Domestic Subsidiary (other than Finance Corp.) of TLLP that is not already a Guarantor guarantees any other Indebtedness of either of the Issuers under a Credit Facility, then that Subsidiary will become a Guarantor by executing and delivering a supplemental indenture to the trustee within 30 business days of the date on which it guaranteed or incurred such Indebtedness;provided, that the preceding shall not apply to Subsidiaries of TLLP that have been properly designated as Unrestricted Subsidiaries in accordance with the 2020 Notes Indenture for so long as they continue to constitute Unrestricted Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the preceding, any Guarantee of a Restricted Subsidiary that was incurred pursuant to this paragraph will be released in the circumstances described under “—2020 Note Guarantees.”

Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries

The Board of Directors of the General Partner may designate any Subsidiary of TLLP to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as Unrestricted will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the covenant described above under the caption “—Restricted Payments” or under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by TLLP; provided that any designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

Any designation of a Subsidiary of TLLP as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the trustee by filing with the trustee a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of the General Partner giving effect to such designation and an officers’ certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by the covenant described above under the caption “—Restricted Payments.” If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of the 2020 Notes Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under the covenant

56

described under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity,” TLLP will be in default of such covenant. The Board of Directors of the General Partner may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under the covenant described under the caption “— Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity,” calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the Reference Period and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.

Reports

Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, so long as any 2020 Notes are outstanding, TLLP will furnish (whether through hard copy or internet access) to the holders of 2020 Notes or cause the trustee to furnish to the holders of 2020 Notes, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations:

(1) all quarterly and annual reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if TLLP were required to file such reports, including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”; and

(2) all current reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K if TLLP were required to file such reports.

All such reports will be prepared in all material respects in accordance with all of the rules and regulations applicable to such reports. Each annual report on Form 10-K will include a report on TLLP’s consolidated financial statements by TLLP’s independent registered public accounting firm. In addition, TLLP will file a copy of each of the reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) above with the SEC for public availability within the time periods specified in the rules and regulations applicable to such reports (unless the SEC will not accept such a filing) and will post the reports on its website within those time periods.

If, at any time TLLP is no longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, TLLP will nevertheless continue filing the reports specified in the preceding paragraphs of this covenant with the SEC within the time periods specified above unless the SEC will not accept such a filing;provided that, for so long as TLLP is not subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the time period for filing reports on Form 8-K shall be five business days after the event giving rise to the obligation to file such report. If the SEC will not accept TLLP’s filings for any reason, TLLP will post the reports referred to in the preceding paragraphs on its website within the time periods that would apply if TLLP were required to file those reports with the SEC.

If TLLP has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then, to the extent material, the quarterly and annual financial information required by the preceding paragraph will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, or in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the financial condition and results of operations of TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of TLLP.

In addition, the Issuers and the Guarantors have agreed that, for so long as any 2020 Notes remain outstanding, if at any time they are not required to file with the SEC the reports required by the preceding paragraphs, they will furnish to the holders of 2020 Notes and to securities analysts and prospective investors in the 2020 Notes, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

TLLP will be deemed to have furnished such reports to the trustee and the holders of the 2020 Notes if it has filed such reports with the SEC using the EDGAR filing system (or any successor thereto) and such reports are publicly available.

57

Events of Default and Remedies

Each of the following is an “Event of Default”:

(1) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest and Special Interest, if any, with respect to the 2020 Notes;

(2) default in the payment when due (at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on, the 2020 Notes;

(3) failure by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 30 days after written notice to TLLP by the trustee or holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes then outstanding voting as a single class to make a Change of Control Offer within the time periods set forth, or consummate a purchase of 2020 Notes when required pursuant to the terms described, under the captions “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Change of Control Triggering Event” or comply with the provisions described under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets”;

(4) failure by TLLP for 120 days after written notice to TLLP by the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes then outstanding voting as a single class to comply with the covenant described under “—Certain Covenants—Reports”;

(5) failure by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 60 days after notice to TLLP by the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes then outstanding voting as a single class to comply with any of the other agreements in the 2020 Notes Indenture;

(6) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the Issue Date, if that default:

(a) is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness (a “Payment Default”); or

(b) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity,

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates, without duplication, $25.0 million or more;

(7) failure by an Issuer or any of TLLP’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary to pay final judgments entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction aggregating in excess of $25.0 million (excluding amounts covered by insurance policies issued by reputable and credit worthy insurance companies for which coverage has not been disclaimed), which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days;

(8) except as permitted by the 2020 Notes Indenture, any 2020 Note Guarantee from a Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary is held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect, or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary, denies or disaffirms its Obligations under its 2020 Note Guarantee; and

(9) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency described in the 2020 Notes Indenture with respect to Finance Corp., TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary.

In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, with respect to Finance Corp., TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of TLLP that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding

58

2020 Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2020 Notes may declare all the 2020 Notes to be due and payable immediately.

Subject to certain limitations, holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2020 Notes may direct the trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The trustee may withhold from holders of the 2020 Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal, interest and Special Interest, if any, or premium, if any.

In the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (6) of the first paragraph under this caption, such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding, however, any resulting payment default) will be annulled, waived and rescinded with respect to the 2020 Notes, automatically and without any action by the trustee or the holders of such 2020 Notes, if within 60 days after such Event of Default first arose TLLP delivers an officers’ certificate to the trustee stating that (a) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged, (b) the holders of the Indebtedness have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default or (c) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured;provided,however, that in no event shall an acceleration of the principal amount of the 2020 Notes as described above be annulled, waived or rescinded upon the happening of any such events.

Subject to the provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture relating to the duties of the trustee, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the 2020 Notes Indenture at the request or direction of any holders of 2020 Notes unless such holders have offered to the trustee reasonable indemnity or security against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest and Special Interest, if any, when due, no holder of a 2020 Note may pursue any remedy with respect to the 2020 Notes Indenture or the 2020 Notes unless:

(1) such holder has previously given the trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

(2) holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2020 Notes have requested the trustee to pursue the remedy;

(3) such holders have offered the trustee reasonable security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense;

(4) the trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and

(5) holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2020 Notes have not given the trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2020 Notes by notice to the trustee may, on behalf of the holders of all of the 2020 Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the 2020 Notes Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest and Special Interest, if any, or premium, if any, on, or the principal of, the 2020 Notes.

The Issuers and the Guarantors are required to deliver to the trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the 2020 Notes Indenture. Upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, the Issuers and the Guarantors are required to deliver to the trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default.

No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Unitholders

No director, officer, partner, member, employee, incorporator, manager or unitholder or other owner of Equity Interest of the Issuers, the General Partner or any of their Subsidiaries, as such, will have any liability for

59

any obligations of the Issuers or any Guarantor under the 2020 Notes, the 2020 Notes Indenture, the 2020 Note Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each holder of 2020 Notes by accepting a 2020 Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the 2020 Notes and the 2020 Note Guarantees. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.

Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance

The Issuers may at their option and at any time, elect to have all of the Issuers’ obligations discharged with respect to the outstanding 2020 Notes and all Obligations of the Guarantors discharged with respect to their 2020 Note Guarantees (“Legal Defeasance”) except for:

(1) the rights of holders of outstanding 2020 Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest and Special Interest, if any, or premium, if any, on, such 2020 Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to below;

(2) the Issuers’ obligations with respect to the 2020 Notes concerning issuing temporary 2020 Notes, registration of 2020 Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen 2020 Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust;

(3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the trustee, and the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ Obligations in connection therewith; and

(4) the Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture.

In addition, TLLP may, at its option and at any time, elect to have the Obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors released with respect to certain covenants (including its obligation to make Change of Control Offers and Asset Sale Offers) that are described in the 2020 Notes Indenture (“Covenant Defeasance”) and all Obligations of the Guarantor with respect to their 2020 Note Guarantees discharged, and thereafter any omission to comply with those covenants or 2020 Note Guarantees will not constitute a Default or Event of Default with respect to the 2020 Notes or the 2020 Note Guarantees. In the event Covenant Defeasance occurs, certain events (not including non-payment, bankruptcy, receivership, rehabilitation and insolvency events relating to TLLP) described under “—Events of Default and Remedies” will no longer constitute an Event of Default with respect to the 2020 Notes. If the Issuers exercise either their Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance option, each Guarantor will be released and relieved of any obligations under its 2020 Note Guarantee and any security for the 2020 Notes (other than the trust) will be released.

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance:

(1) the Issuers must irrevocably deposit with the trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the holders of the 2020 Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized investment bank, appraisal firm or firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, or interest and Special Interest, if any, and premium, if any, on the outstanding 2020 Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and the Issuers must specify whether the 2020 Notes are being defeased to such stated date for payment or to a particular redemption date;

(2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, the Issuers must deliver to the trustee an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the trustee confirming that (a) the Issuers have received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since the Issue Date, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion of counsel will confirm that, the holders of the outstanding 2020 Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred;

60

(3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, the Issuers must deliver to the trustee an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the trustee confirming that the holders of the outstanding 2020 Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred;

(4) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the incurrence of Indebtedness or other borrowing of funds or the grant of Liens securing such Indebtedness or other borrowing, all or a portion of the proceeds of which will be applied to such deposit);

(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than the 2020 Notes Indenture) to which TLLP or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which TLLP or any of its Subsidiaries is bound, or if such breach, violation or default would occur, which is not waived as of, and for all purposes, on and after, the date of such deposit;

(6) the Issuers must deliver to the trustee an officers’ certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Issuers with the intent of preferring the holders of 2020 Notes over the other creditors of the Issuers with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any creditors of the Issuers or others; and

(7) the Issuers must deliver to the trustee an officers’ certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

Satisfaction and Discharge

The 2020 Notes Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all 2020 Notes issued thereunder, when:

(1) either:

(a) all 2020 Notes that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed 2020 Notes that have been replaced or paid and 2020 Notes for whose payment money has been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Issuers, have been delivered to the trustee for cancellation; or

(b) all 2020 Notes that have not been delivered to the trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the mailing of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and the Issuers or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof in such amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the 2020 Notes not delivered to the trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest and Special Interest, if any, to the date of maturity or redemption;

(2) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other material instrument to which any Issuer or any Guarantor is a party or by which any Issuer or any Guarantor is bound;

(3) the Issuers or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under the 2020 Notes Indenture; and

(4) the Issuers have delivered irrevocable instructions to the trustee under the 2020 Notes Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the 2020 Notes at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be.

61

In addition, the Issuers must deliver to the trustee (a) an officer’s certificate, stating that all conditions precedent set forth in clauses (1) through (4) above have been satisfied and (b) an opinion of counsel (which opinion of counsel may be subject to customary assumptions and qualifications), stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge set forth in clauses (2) and (4) above have been satisfied; provided that the opinion of counsel with respect to clause (2) above may be to the knowledge of such counsel.

Amendment, Supplement and Waiver

Except as provided in the next two succeeding paragraphs, the 2020 Notes Indenture, the 2020 Notes or the 2020 Note Guarantees may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, 2020 Notes), and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of the 2020 Notes Indenture or the 2020 Notes or the 2020 Note Guarantees may be waived with the consent of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2020 Notes (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, 2020 Notes).

Without the consent of each holder of 2020 Notes affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver may not (with respect to any 2020 Notes held by a non-consenting holder):

(1) reduce the principal amount of 2020 Notes whose holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any 2020 Note or alter any of the provisions with respect to the redemption of the 2020 Notes; provided, however, that any purchase or repurchase of 2020 Notes, including pursuant to the covenants described above under the caption “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders,” shall not be deemed a redemption of the 2020 Notes;

(3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest or Special Interest, if any, on any 2020 Note;

(4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest and Special Interest, if any, or premium, if any, on, the 2020 Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the 2020 Notes by the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2020 Notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

(5) make any 2020 Note payable in currency other than that stated in the 2020 Notes;

(6) make any change in the provisions of the 2020 Notes Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of holders of 2020 Notes to receive payments of principal of, or interest and Special Interest, if any, or premium, if any, on, the 2020 Notes (other than as permitted by clause (7) below);

(7) waive a redemption payment with respect to any 2020 Note (other than a payment required by one of the covenants described above under the caption “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders”);

(8) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its 2020 Note Guarantee or the 2020 Notes Indenture, except in accordance with the terms of the 2020 Notes Indenture; or

(9) make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions.

Notwithstanding the preceding, without the consent of any holder of 2020 Notes, the Issuers, the Guarantors and the trustee may amend or supplement the 2020 Notes Indenture, the 2020 Notes or the 2020 Note Guarantees:

(1) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency;

(2) to provide for uncertificated 2020 Notes in addition to or in place of certificated 2020 Notes;

62

(3) to provide for the assumption of the Issuers’ or a Guarantor’s obligations to holders of 2020 Notes and 2020 Note Guarantees in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Issuers’ or such Guarantor’s assets, as applicable;

Concerning the Trustee

If the trustee becomes a creditor of the Issuers or any Guarantor, the 2020 Notes Indenture limits the right of the trustee to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on certain property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. The trustee is permitted to engage in other transactions; however, if it acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in the Trust Indenture Act) it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as trustee (if the 2020 Notes Indenture has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act) or resign.

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2020 Notes have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the trustee, subject to certain exceptions. The 2020 Notes Indenture provides that in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the trustee will be required, in the exercise of its power, to use the degree of care and skill of a prudent person in the conduct of his or her own affairs. Subject to such provisions, the trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the 2020 Notes Indenture at the request of any holder of 2020 Notes, unless such holder has offered to the trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

“Synthetic Lease Obligation” means the monetary obligation of a Person under (a) a so-called synthetic, off-balance sheet or tax retention lease, or (b) an agreement for the use or possession of property (including sale and leaseback transactions), in each case, creating obligations that do not appear on the balance sheet of such Person but which, upon the application of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally to such Person, would be characterized as the Indebtedness of such Person (without regard to accounting treatment).

“Treasury Rate” means, as of any redemption date, the yield to maturity as of such redemption date of United States Treasury securities with a constant maturity (as compiled and published in the most recent Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) that has become publicly available at least two business days prior to the redemption date (or, if such Statistical Release is no longer published, any publicly available source of similar market data)) most nearly equal to the period from the redemption date to October 1, 2016; provided, however, that if the period from the redemption date to October 1, 2016 is less than one year, the weekly average yield on actually traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year will be used.

“Unrestricted Subsidiary” means any Subsidiary of TLLP (other than Finance Corp. or any successor to it) that is designated by the Board of Directors of the General Partner as an Unrestricted Subsidiary pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors, but only to the extent that such Subsidiary:

(1) except to the extent permitted by subclause (2)(b) of the definition of “Permitted Business Investments”, has no Indebtedness other than Non-Recourse Debt;

(2) except as permitted under clauses (3) and (4) of the covenant described above under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Transactions with Affiliates,” is not party to any agreement, contract, arrangement

81

or understanding with TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP unless the terms of any such agreement, contract, arrangement or understanding are no less favorable to TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that might be obtained, in light of the circumstances, at the time from Persons who are not Affiliates of TLLP;

(3) is a Person with respect to which neither TLLP nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has any direct or indirect obligation (a) to subscribe for additional Equity Interests or (b) to maintain or preserve such Person’s financial condition or to cause such Person to achieve any specified levels of operating results; and

(4) has not guaranteed or otherwise directly or indirectly provided credit support for any Indebtedness of TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

All Subsidiaries of an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be also Unrestricted Subsidiaries. Any designation of a Subsidiary of TLLP as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the trustee by filing with the trustee a Board Resolution giving effect to such designation and an officers’ certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by the covenant described above under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Restricted Payments.” If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of the 2020 Notes Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under the covenant described under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity,” TLLP will be in default of such covenant.

(2) the then outstanding principal amount of such Indebtedness.

82

DESCRIPTION OF THE 2021 NOTES

You can find the definitions of certain terms used in this description under the subheading “Certain Definitions.” In this description, the terms “TLLP,” “our” or “we” refer only to Tesoro Logistics LP and not to any of its subsidiaries, the term “Finance Corp.” refers to Tesoro Logistics Finance Corp. and the term “Issuers” refers to TLLP and Finance Corp.

The Issuers issued $550.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 2021 Notes on August 1, 2013, under an indenture dated as of August 1, 2013 (as amended from time to time, the “2021 Notes Indenture”) among the Issuers, the Guarantors and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “trustee”). The terms of the 2021 Notes include those stated in the 2021 Notes Indenture and those made part of the 2021 Notes Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”). The terms of the exchange notes to be issued in this offering will be substantially identical to those of the outstanding notes except that the holders of the 2021 Notes are entitled to certain registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into by and among the Issuers, the Guarantors and the initial purchasers of the 2021 Notes (the “2021 Notes Registration Rights Agreement”).

The following description is a summary of the material provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture relating to the 2021 Notes. It does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to all of the provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture. We urge you to read the 2021 Notes Indenture because it, and not this description, define your rights as holders of the 2021 Notes. Copies of the 2021 Notes Indenture are available as set forth below under “—Additional Information.” Certain defined terms used in this description but not defined below under “—Certain Definitions” have the meanings assigned to them in the 2021 Notes Indenture.

The registered holder of a 2021 Note will be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. Only registered holders will have rights under the 2021 Notes Indenture.

Brief Description of the 2021 Notes and the Related Guarantees

The 2021 Notes

The 2021 Notes:

• are general unsecured obligations of the Issuers;

• arepari passuin right of payment with all existing and future senior Indebtedness of the Issuers, including the 2020 Notes and Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement;

• are senior in right of payment to any future subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuers; and

• are unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantors on a senior unsecured basis.

However, the 2021 Notes are effectively subordinated to all secured Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, which is secured by substantially all of the assets of TLLP and the Guarantors, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such Indebtedness and structurally subordinated to any liabilities of any Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors.

As of June 30, 2013, after giving effect to the Transactions, our total outstanding long-term debt, including current maturities, would have been approximately $908.9 million, and we would have had no borrowings and approximately $0.3 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Exchange Notes—The exchange notes will be effectively subordinated to our and our subsidiary guarantors’ existing and future secured indebtedness, including indebtedness under our revolving credit facility, in each case to the extent of the value of the property securing such indebtedness.”

83

The 2021 Note Guarantees

Each guarantee of the 2021 Notes (each, a “2021 Note Guarantee”):

• is a general unsecured obligation of the Guarantor;

• ispari passuin right of payment with all existing and future senior Indebtedness of that Guarantor, including such Guarantor’s guarantee of the 2020 Notes and Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement; and

• is senior in right of payment to any future subordinated Indebtedness of that Guarantor.

However, the 2021 Note Guarantees are effectively subordinated to all secured Indebtedness of the Guarantors, including their guarantees of Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing those guarantees and structurally subordinated to any liabilities of any Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors.

The 2021 Notes are guaranteed by all of our wholly-owned Domestic Subsidiaries (other than Finance Corp.) that are guarantors under a Credit Facility. As of the Issue Date, all of our Subsidiaries (other than Finance Corp.) were Guarantors. Under certain circumstances described below under the subheading “—Certain Covenants—Additional Guarantors,” in the future one or more of our newly created or acquired Subsidiaries may not guarantee the 2021 Notes. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of our non-guaranteeing Subsidiaries, such Subsidiaries will pay the holders of their debt and their trade creditors before they will be able to distribute any of their assets to us.

As of the Issue Date, all of our Subsidiaries were “Restricted Subsidiaries.” However, under the circumstances described below under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries,” we are permitted to designate certain of our Subsidiaries as “Unrestricted Subsidiaries.” Our Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to the restrictive covenants in the 2021 Notes Indenture. Our Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not guarantee the 2021 Notes.

Finance Corp.

Finance Corp. is a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of TLLP that has been formed for the purpose of facilitating the offerings of the notes by acting as co-issuer. Finance Corp. is nominally capitalized and does not have any operations or revenues. As a result, prospective purchasers of the 2021 Notes should not expect Finance Corp. to participate in servicing the interest and Special Interest, if any, and principal obligations on the 2021 Notes. See “—Certain Covenants—Limitations on Finance Corp. Activities.”

Principal, Maturity and Interest

The Issuers issued $550 million in aggregate principal amount of 2021 Notes on August 1, 2013. The Issuers may issue additional 2021 Notes under the 2021 Notes Indenture from time to time after this offering. Any issuance of additional 2021 Notes is subject to all of the covenants in the 2021 Notes Indenture, including the covenant described below under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity.” The 2021 Notes and any additional 2021 Notes subsequently issued under the 2021 Notes Indenture, together with any exchange notes issued in respect of the additional 2021 Notes, are treated as a single class for all purposes under the 2021 Notes Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. Unless the context otherwise requires, references to “2021 Notes” for all purposes of the 2021 Notes Indenture and this “Description of the 2021 Notes” include any additional 2021 Notes that are actually issued. The Issuers issued 2021 Notes in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The 2021 Notes will mature on October 15, 2021.

Interest on the 2021 Notes accrues at the rate of 6.125% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15, commencing on April 15, 2014. The Issuers will make each interest payment to the holders of record on the immediately preceding April 1 and October 1. Interest on the 2021 Notes began to accrue from August 1, 2013.

84

Interest on the 2021 Notes will accrue from the date of original issuance or, if interest has already been paid, from the date it was most recently paid. Special Interest may accrue on the 2021 Notes as liquidated damages in certain circumstances described in this prospectus and all references to “interest” in this description include any Special Interest that may be payable on the 2021 Notes. Interest is computed on the basis of a360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

If an interest payment date falls on a day that is not a business day, the interest payment to be made on such interest payment date will be made on the next succeeding business day with the same force and effect as if made on such interest payment date, and no additional interest will accrue solely as a result of such delayed payment.

Methods of Receiving Payments on the 2021 Notes

If a holder of 2021 Notes has given wire transfer instructions to TLLP, the Issuers will pay all principal, interest and Special Interest, if any, and premium, if any, on that holder’s 2021 Notes in accordance with those instructions. All other payments on the 2021 Notes will be made at the office or agency of the paying agent and registrar within the City and State of New York unless the Issuers elect to make interest payments by check mailed to the noteholders at their address set forth in the register of holders.

Paying Agent and Registrar for the 2021 Notes

The trustee acts as paying agent and registrar for the 2021 Notes. The Issuers may change the paying agent or registrar without prior notice to the holders of the 2021 Notes, and TLLP, Finance Corp. or any of TLLP’s other Subsidiaries may act as paying agent or registrar.

Transfer and Exchange

A holder may transfer or exchange 2021 Notes in accordance with the provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture. The registrar and the trustee may require a holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents in connection with a transfer of 2021 Notes. Holders will be required to pay all taxes due on transfer or exchange. The Issuers will not be required to transfer or exchange any 2021 Note selected for redemption. Also, the Issuers will not be required to transfer or exchange any 2021 Note for a period of 15 days before a selection of 2021 Notes to be redeemed.

2021 Note Guarantees

All of our existing Subsidiaries (other than Finance Corp.) jointly and severally guarantee the 2021 Notes, and will guarantee the exchange notes, on a senior unsecured basis. Additional Domestic Subsidiaries of TLLP will be required to guarantee the 2021 Notes under the circumstances described under “—Certain Covenants—Additional Guarantors.” These 2021 Note Guarantees are joint and several obligations of the Guarantors. The obligations of each Guarantor under its 2021 Note Guarantee are limited as necessary to prevent that 2021 Note Guarantee from constituting a fraudulent conveyance under applicable law. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Exchange Notes—The subsidiary guarantees could be deemed fraudulent conveyances under certain circumstances, and a court may try to subordinate or avoid the subsidiary guarantee.”

Except as set forth in the next paragraph, a Guarantor may not sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the resulting, transferee or surviving Person), another Person, other than TLLP or another Guarantor, unless:

(1) immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists;

and

(2) either:

(a) the Person acquiring the assets in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than TLLP or another Guarantor) assumes all

85

obligations of that Guarantor under the 2021 Notes Indenture and its 2021 Note Guarantee and, if then in effect, the 2021 Notes Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to an agreement reasonably satisfactory to the trustee; or

(b) the Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied in accordance with the applicable provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture.

The 2021 Note Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released:

(1) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP, if the sale or other disposition does not violate the “Asset Sale” provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture;

(2) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of that Guarantor to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP, if the sale or other disposition does not violate the “Asset Sale” provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture;

(3) if TLLP designates any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the applicable provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture;

(4) if that Guarantor ceases to guarantee any Indebtedness of any Issuer under a Credit Facility;provided,however, that if, at any time following such release, that Guarantor later guarantees Indebtedness of any Issuer under a Credit Facility, then such Guarantor shall be required to provide a 2021 Note Guarantee at such time;

(5) upon the liquidation or dissolution of such Guarantor,providedno Default or Event of Default has occurred that is continuing; or

(6) upon Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance as described below under the caption “—Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance” or upon satisfaction and discharge of the 2021 Notes Indenture as described below under the caption “—Satisfaction and Discharge.”

Optional Redemption

At any time prior to October 15, 2016, the Issuers may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2021 Notes (including any additional notes) issued under the 2021 Notes Indenture at a redemption price of 106.125% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the redemption date), with the net cash proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings;providedthat:

(1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of 2021 Notes originally issued under the 2021 Notes Indenture (excluding 2021 Notes held by TLLP and its Subsidiaries) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption; and

(2) the redemption occurs within 180 days of the date of the closing of such Equity Offering.

Except pursuant to the preceding paragraph and the penultimate paragraph of this section relating to optional redemption, the 2021 Notes are not redeemable at the Issuers’ option prior to October 15, 2016. The Issuers are not, however, prohibited from acquiring the 2021 Notes by means other than a redemption, whether pursuant to a tender offer, open market purchase or otherwise, so long as the acquisition does not violate the terms of the 2021 Notes Indenture.

On or after October 15, 2016, the Issuers may redeem all or a part of the 2021 Notes upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at the redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) set forth

86

below plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, on the 2021 Notes redeemed, to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on October 15 of each year indicated below, subject to the rights of holders of 2021 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date:

Year	Percentage
2016		104.594	%
2017		103.063	%
2018		101.531	%
2019 and thereafter		100.000	%

At any time prior to October 15, 2016, the Issuers may also redeem all or a part of the 2021 Notes, upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of 2021 Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, thereon to the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”), subject to the rights of holders of 2021 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. The notice need not set forth the Applicable Premium but only the manner of calculation of the redemption price. The 2021 Notes Indenture provides that, with respect to any such redemption, the Issuers will notify the trustee of the Applicable Premium with respect to the 2021 Notes promptly after the calculation and that the trustee will not be responsible for such calculation.

Unless the Issuers default in the payment of the redemption price, interest will cease to accrue on the 2021 Notes or portions thereof called for redemption on the applicable redemption date.

Mandatory Redemption

Neither of the Issuers is required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the 2021 Notes.

Selection and Notice

If less than all of the 2021 Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the trustee will select 2021 Notes for redemption as follows:

(1) if the 2021 Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the 2021 Notes are listed; or

(2) on apro ratabasis to the extent practicable; or

(3) if the 2021 Notes are not listed on any national securities exchange, on apro ratabasis, by lot or such other similar method in accordance with the procedures of DTC.

No 2021 Notes of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part. Notices of redemption will be mailed by first class mail at least 15 but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of 2021 Notes to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the 2021 Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the 2021 Notes Indenture. Notice of any redemption of the 2021 Notes (including upon an Equity Offering or in connection with a transaction (or series of related transactions) that constitute a Change of Control) may, at the Issuers’ discretion, be given prior to the completion thereof and be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the related Equity Offering or Change of Control. In addition, if such redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall state that, in the Issuers’ discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event

87

that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date, or by the redemption date so delayed. In addition, the Issuers may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuers’ obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.

If any 2021 Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to that 2021 Note will state the portion of the principal amount of that 2021 Note that is to be redeemed. A new 2021 Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original 2021 Note will be issued in the name of the holder of 2021 Notes upon cancellation of the original 2021 Note. Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption, unless the redemption is subject to a condition precedent that is not satisfied or waived. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on 2021 Notes or portions of 2021 Notes called for redemption.

Repurchase at the Option of Holders

Change of Control Triggering Event

If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, the Issuers will make an offer to each holder of 2021 Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that holder’s 2021 Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth in the 2021 Notes Indenture. In the Change of Control Offer, the Issuers will offer a payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of 2021 Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, on the 2021 Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”), subject to the rights of holders of 2021 Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuers will mail a notice to each holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase 2021 Notes on the “Change of Control Payment Date” specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 20 business days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, pursuant to the procedures required by the 2021 Notes Indenture and described in such notice. The Issuers will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the 2021 Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture, the Issuers will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture by virtue of such compliance.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuers will, to the extent lawful:

(1) accept for payment all 2021 Notes or portions of 2021 Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(2) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all 2021 Notes or portions of 2021 Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; and

(3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the trustee the 2021 Notes accepted for purchase together with an officers’ certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of 2021 Notes or portions of 2021 Notes being purchased by the Issuers.

The paying agent will promptly mail to each holder of 2021 Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such 2021 Notes (or, if all the 2021 Notes are then in global form, it will make such payment through the facilities of DTC), and the trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each holder a new 2021 Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the 2021 Notes surrendered, if any;provided, that each new 2021 Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Issuers will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

88

The provisions described above that require the Issuers to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control Triggering Event are applicable whether or not any other provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture are applicable, except as set forth under the captions “—Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance” and “—Satisfaction and Discharge.” Except as described above with respect to a Change of Control Triggering Event, the 2021 Notes Indenture does not contain provisions that permit the holders of the 2021 Notes to require that the Issuers repurchase or redeem the 2021 Notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction.

The Issuers will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the 2021 Notes Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuers and purchases all 2021 Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer or (2) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to the 2021 Notes Indenture as described above under the caption “—Optional Redemption,” unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price.

A Change of Control Offer may be made with respect to the 2021 Notes in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, and conditioned upon the occurrence of such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement for the Change of Control Triggering Event is in place at the time of making the Change of Control Offer.

The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of “all or substantially all” of the properties or assets of TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of 2021 Notes to require the Issuers to repurchase its 2021 Notes as a result of a sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of less than all of the assets of TLLP and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole to another Person or group may be uncertain.

In the event that Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2021 Notes tender and do not withdraw such 2021 Notes in a Change of Control Offer and TLLP (or the third party making the Change of Control Offer as provided above) purchases all of the 2021 Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such holders, TLLP or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all of the 2021 Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price equal to the Change of Control Payment plus, to the extent not included in the Change of Control Payment, accrued and unpaid interest on the 2021 Notes that remain outstanding to the date of redemption (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the redemption date).

Asset Sales

TLLP will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

(1) TLLP (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at least equal to the Fair Market Value (such Fair Market Value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Sale and which shall give effect to the assumption by another Person of any liabilities as provided for in clause (a) of the following paragraph) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; and

at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents.

89

(2) For purposes of the preceding clause (2) of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

(a) any liabilities, as shown on TLLP’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the 2021 Notes or any 2021 Note Guarantees) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary novation agreement that releases TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability;

(b) any securities, 2021 Notes or other obligations received by TLLP or any such Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such transaction that within 90 days after the Asset Sale (subject to ordinary settlement periods) are converted by TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents, to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received in that conversion;

(c) any stock or assets of the kind referred to in clauses (2) or (4) of the next succeeding paragraph received by TLLP or any such Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such transaction; and

(d) accounts receivable of a business retained by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, following the sale of such business,providedsuch accounts receivable (x) are not past due more than 60 days and (y) do not have a payment date greater than 90 days from the date of the invoices creating such accounts receivable;

providedthat any Asset Sale pursuant to a condemnation, appropriation or other similar taking, including by deed in lieu of condemnation, or pursuant to the foreclosure or other enforcement of a Lien incurred not in violation of the covenant described below under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Liens” or exercise by the related lienholder of rights with respect thereto, including by deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure, shall not be required to satisfy the conditions set forth in clauses (1) and (2) of this paragraph.

Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, TLLP (or any Restricted Subsidiary) may apply such Net Proceeds at its option to any combination of the following:

(1) to prepay, repay, redeem or repurchase Senior Indebtedness of TLLP and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(2) to acquire a controlling interest in another business or all or substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock or operating line of, another business, in each case engaged in a Permitted Business, if, after giving effect to any such acquisition of Capital Stock, the Permitted Business is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP;

(3) to make capital expenditures; or

(4) to acquire other assets that are not classified as current assets under GAAP and that are used or useful in a Permitted Business;

providedthat, in the case of clauses (2), (3) and (4) above, a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as TLLP (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) enters into such commitment with the good faith expectation that such Net Proceeds will be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days of such commitment (an “Acceptable Commitment”) and such Net Proceeds are actually applied in such manner within the later of 365 days from the consummation of the Asset Sale and 180 days from the date of the Acceptable Commitment, and in the event any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before the Net Proceeds are applied in connection therewith, TLLP (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) enters into another Acceptable Commitment (a “Second Commitment”) within 180 days of such cancellation or termination and such Net Proceeds are actually applied in such manner within 180 days from the date of the Second Commitment, it being understood that if a Second Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such Net Proceeds are applied, then such Net Proceeds shall constitute Excess Proceeds.

Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, TLLP or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by the 2021 Notes Indenture.

90

Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the second paragraph of this covenant will constitute “Excess Proceeds.” Within five days after the date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25.0 million (or, at the Issuers’ option, any earlier date), the Issuers will make an offer (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to all holders of 2021 Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that ispari passuwith the 2021 Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in the 2021 Notes Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase the maximum principal amount of 2021 Notes and such otherpari passuIndebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount (or accreted value) thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and Special Interest, if any, to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the 2021 Notes Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of 2021 Notes and otherpari passuIndebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the trustee will select the 2021 Notes and the representative of such otherpari passuIndebtedness will select such otherpari passuIndebtedness to be purchased on apro ratabasis. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

TLLP will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of 2021 Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Asset Sale provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture, TLLP will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Asset Sale provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture by virtue of such compliance.

The Credit Agreement and the agreements governing TLLP’s other Indebtedness contain, and future agreements governing TLLP’s Indebtedness may contain prohibitions of certain events, including events that would constitute a Change of Control Triggering Event or an Asset Sale and including repurchases of or other prepayments in respect of the 2021 Notes. The exercise by the holders of 2021 Notes of their right to require the Issuers to repurchase the 2021 Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event or an Asset Sale could cause a default under these other agreements, even if the Change of Control Triggering Event or Asset Sale itself does not, due to the financial effect of such repurchases on TLLP or other circumstances. In the event a Change of Control Triggering Event or Asset Sale occurs at a time when TLLP is prohibited from purchasing 2021 Notes, TLLP could seek the consent of the lenders of the borrowings or the counterparties to agreements containing such prohibition to the purchase of 2021 Notes or could attempt to refinance such borrowings. If TLLP does not obtain a consent or repay those borrowings, TLLP will remain prohibited from purchasing 2021 Notes. In that case, TLLP’s failure to purchase tendered 2021 Notes would constitute an Event of Default under the 2021 Notes Indenture which could, in all likelihood, constitute a default under the other indebtedness. Finally, the Issuers’ ability to pay cash to the holders of 2021 Notes upon a repurchase may be limited by TLLP’s then existing financial resources. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Exchange Notes—We may not be able to finance a change of control offer as required by the 2021 Notes Indenture.”

Certain Covenants

Covenant Termination

If at any time (a) the 2021 Notes are assigned an Investment Grade Rating from both Rating Agencies and (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the 2021 Notes Indenture (the “Termination Date”), TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries will no longer be subject to the provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture described above under the caption “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Asset Sales” and under the following headings under the caption “—Certain Covenants”:

• “—Restricted Payments”;

• “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity”;

91

• “—Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries”;

• clause (4) of the covenant described below under the caption “—Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets”;

• “—Transactions with Affiliates”; and

• “—Additional Guarantors.”

However, TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries will remain subject to the provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture described above under the caption “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Change of Control Triggering Event,” and the following provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture described in:

• “—Certain Covenants—Liens”;

• “—Certain Covenants—Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets” (other than clause (4) of such covenant); and

• “—Certain Covenants—Reports.”

No Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after the Termination Date. There can be no assurance that the 2021 Notes will ever achieve or maintain an Investment Grade Rating.

Restricted Payments

TLLP will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

(1) declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution on account of TLLP’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests (including, without limitation, any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) or to the direct or indirect holders of TLLP’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests in their capacity as such (other than distributions or dividends payable solely in Equity Interests of TLLP (other than Disqualified Equity) and other than distributions or dividends payable solely to TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary);

(4) make any Restricted Investment

(all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and either:

(1) if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for TLLP’s Reference Period is not less than 1.75 to 1.00, such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), (9), (10) and (11) of the next succeeding paragraph) during the quarter in which such Restricted Payment is made, is less than the sum, without duplication, of:

(a) Available Cash from Operating Surplus as of the end of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter; plus

92

(b) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds, or the Fair Market Value of assets or property, received by TLLP since September 14, 2012 as a contribution to its common equity capital or from the issue or sale of (A) Equity Interests of TLLP (other than Disqualified Equity) or (B) convertible or exchangeable Disqualified Equity or convertible or exchangeable debt securities of TLLP that have been converted into or exchanged for such Equity Interests (other than Equity Interests (or Disqualified Equity or debt securities) sold to a Subsidiary of TLLP); plus

(c) to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made after September 14, 2012 is sold for cash or Cash Equivalents or otherwise liquidated or repaid for cash or Cash Equivalents, the return of capital or similar payment made in cash or Cash Equivalents with respect to such Restricted Investment (less the cost of disposition, if any); plus

(d) the net reduction in Restricted Investments made after September 14, 2012 resulting from dividends, repayments of loans or advances, or other transfers of assets in each case to TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries from any Person (including, without limitation, Unrestricted Subsidiaries) or from redesignations of Unrestricted Subsidiaries as Restricted Subsidiaries, to the extent such amounts have not been included in Available Cash from Operating Surplus for any period commencing on or after September 14, 2012 (items (b), (c) and (d) being referred to as “Incremental Funds”); minus

(e) the aggregate amount of Incremental Funds previously expended pursuant to this clause (1) and clause (2) below; or

(2) if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for TLLP’s Reference Period is less than 1.75 to 1.00, such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), (9), (10) and (11) of the next succeeding paragraph) during the quarter in which such Restricted Payment is made (such Restricted Payments for purposes of this clause (2) meaning only distributions on common units and subordinated units of TLLP, plus the related distribution on the general partner interest), is less than the sum, without duplication, of:

(a) $100.0 million less the aggregate amount of all Restricted Payments made by TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to this clause (2)(a) during the period ending on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date of such Restricted Payment and beginning on September 14, 2012; plus

(b) Incremental Funds to the extent not previously expended pursuant to this clause (2) or clause (1) above.

The preceding provisions will not prohibit:

(1) the payment of any dividend or distribution or the consummation of an irrevocable redemption of Subordinated Obligations within 60 days after the date of the declaration of such dividend or the delivery of the irrevocable notice of redemption, as the case may be, if at the date of declaration or the date on which such irrevocable notice is delivered, such dividend or redemption would have complied with the provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture (assuming, in the case of a redemption payment, the giving of the notice of such redemption payment would have been deemed to be a Restricted Payment at such time and such deemed Restricted Payment would have been permitted at such time);

(2) the making of any Restricted Payment in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of, a substantially concurrent (a) capital contribution to TLLP from any Person (other than a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP) or (b) sale or issuance (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP) of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Equity) of TLLP, with a sale or issuance being deemed substantially concurrent if such Restricted Payment occurs not more than 120 days after such sale;providedthat the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any such Restricted Payment will be excluded or deducted from the calculation of Available Cash from Operating Surplus and Incremental Funds;

93

(3) the making of any principal payment on, or the defeasance, redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of, any Subordinated Obligation with the net cash proceeds from an incurrence of, or in exchange for, Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness;

(4) the payment of any distribution or dividend by a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP to the holders of such Restricted Subsidiary’s Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Equity) on apro ratabasis;

(7) repurchases of Equity Interests deemed to occur upon the cashless exercise of stock options, warrants or other convertible securities if such Equity Interests represent a portion of the exercise price of such options, warrants or other convertible securities;

(8) cash payments in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares or units, or the purchase by TLLP of fractional shares or units, in connection with (a) the exercise of warrants, options or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Capital Stock of TLLP or (b) stock or unit dividends, splits or combinations or business combinations;

(9) in connection with an acquisition by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, the return to TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Equity Interests of TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries constituting a portion of the purchase consideration in settlement of indemnification claims or pursuant to purchase price adjustments under the acquisition agreement;

(10) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Subordinated Obligations pursuant to provisions similar to those described under the captions “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Change of Control Triggering Event” or “—Asset Sales”;providedthat all 2021 Notes tendered by holders in connection with a Change of Control Offer or Asset Sale Offer, as applicable, have been repurchased, redeemed or acquired for value; and

(11) the issuance of common Equity Interests upon the conversion of subordinated Equity Interests;

provided,further, that, with respect to clauses (5), (6) and (10), no Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the Fair Market Value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. For the purposes of determining compliance with this “Restricted Payments” covenant, in the event that a Restricted Payment meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Restricted Payments described in the preceding clauses (1)-(11), TLLP will be permitted to divide or classify (or later divide, classify or reclassify in whole or in part in its sole discretion) such Restricted Payment in any manner that complies with this covenant.

94

On July 18, 2013, TLLP declared a distribution of $26.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. Such distribution will be payable on August 14, 2013 to unitholders of record on August 2, 2013. Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the minimum quarterly distribution for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was $16.2 million; or $0.3375 per unit.

Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity

TLLP will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and TLLP will not issue any Disqualified Equity and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any Disqualified Equity;provided,however, that TLLP and any Restricted Subsidiary may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) and TLLP and any Restricted Subsidiary may issue Disqualified Equity, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for TLLP’s Reference Period immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Equity is issued, as the case may be, would have been at least 2.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Equity had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such Reference Period.

The first paragraph of this covenant will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”):

(1) the incurrence by TLLP and any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness pursuant to one or more Credit Facilities in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (1) (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) not to exceed the greater of (a) $650.0 million and (b) the sum of $330.0 million and 20.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets;

(2) the incurrence by TLLP, Finance Corp. and its Restricted Subsidiaries of Existing Indebtedness;

(3) the incurrence by TLLP, Finance Corp. and the Guarantors of Indebtedness represented by the 2021 Notes and the related 2021 Note Guarantees to be issued on the Issue Date and the 2021 Exchange Notes and the related 2021 Note Guarantees to be issued pursuant to the 2021 Notes Registration Rights Agreement in exchange therefor;

(4) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations, Synthetic Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations (including any Acquired Debt), in each case, incurred in connection with the purchase of, or for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of construction, improvement or development of, property, plant or equipment used or useful in the business of TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and related financing costs, and Attributable Debt in respect of sale and leaseback transactions, in an aggregate principal amount, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (4), at any time outstanding not to exceed the greater of (a) $100.0 million and (b) 5.0% of TLLP’s Consolidated Net Tangible Assets;

(5) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by the 2021 Notes Indenture to be incurred under the first paragraph of this covenant or clauses (2), (3), or (13) of this paragraph or this clause (5);

(6) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among TLLP and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;provided,however, that:

(a) if TLLP or any Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the payee is not TLLP or a Guarantor, such Indebtedness must be unsecured and expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations then due with respect to the 2021 Notes, in the case of TLLP, or the 2021 Note Guarantee, in the case of a Guarantor; and

95

(b) (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP, will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (6);

(7) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations;

(8) the guarantee by TLLP or any of the Guarantors of Indebtedness of TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP or the Indebtedness incurred by Joint Ventures constituting Permitted Investments;providedthat if the Indebtedness being guaranteed is subordinated to orpari passuwith the 2021 Notes or 2021 Note Guarantees, then the Guarantee shall be subordinated orpari passu, as applicable, to the same extent as the Indebtedness guaranteed;

(9) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness in respect of workers’ compensation or similar liabilities, health or other types of social security benefits, unemployment or other insurance or self-insurance obligations, insurance contracts, reclamation, statutory obligations, bankers’ acceptances, and bid, performance, advance, payment, deposit, appeal and surety bonds in the ordinary course of business, including guarantees and obligations respecting standby letters of credit supporting such obligations, to the extent not drawn (in each case other than an obligation for money borrowed) and replacements of any of the foregoing;

(10) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument inadvertently drawn against insufficient funds, so long as such Indebtedness is covered within five business days;

(11) the issuance by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Disqualified Equity to TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be;provided,however, that:

(a) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests of a Restricted Subsidiary that results in any such Disqualified Equity being held, directly or indirectly, by a Person other than TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP; and

(b) any sale or other transfer of any such Disqualified Equity to a Person that is not either TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP,

will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an issuance of such Disqualified Equity by TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary that was not permitted by this clause;

(12) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Acquisition Indebtedness;

(13) the incurrence by TLLP of Indebtedness in the ordinary course of business under documentary letters of credit, which are to be repaid in full not more than one year after the date on which such Indebtedness was originally incurred to finance the purchase of goods by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(14) the incurrence of Indebtedness arising from agreements with TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price, earn-outs, or similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the disposition or acquisition of any business, assets or a Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of the 2021 Notes Indenture, other than guarantees of Indebtedness incurred or assumed by any Person acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or Subsidiary for the purpose of financing such acquisition; and

(15) the incurrence by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed the greater of (a) $100.0 million and (b) 5.0% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

TLLP will not incur, and will not permit any Guarantor to incur, any Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of TLLP or such Guarantor

96

unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the 2021 Notes and the applicable 2021 Note Guarantee on substantially identical terms;provided,however, that no Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of TLLP solely by virtue of being unsecured or by virtue of being secured on a first or junior Lien basis.

For purposes of determining compliance with this “Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity” covenant, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (15) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this covenant, TLLP will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this covenant;providedthat Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement outstanding on the Issue Date was deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (1) of the definition of “Permitted Debt.”

The accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification of preferred stock as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles, and the payment of dividends on Disqualified Equity in the form of additional shares of the same class of Disqualified Equity will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Equity for purposes of this covenant. Notwithstanding any other provision of this covenant, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this covenant shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values.

The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be:

(1) the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount;

(2) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; and

(3) in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the lesser of:

(a) the Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and

(b) the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person.

Liens

TLLP will not and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) securing Indebtedness upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, unless:

(1) in the case of Liens securing Subordinated Obligations of TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary, the 2021 Notes or 2021 Note Guarantees, as applicable, are contemporaneously secured by a Lien on such property or assets on a senior basis to the Subordinated Obligations so secured with the same priority that the 2021 Notes or 2021 Note Guarantees, as applicable, have to such Subordinated Obligations until such time as such Subordinated Obligations are no longer so secured by a Lien; and

(2) in the case of Liens securing Senior Indebtedness of TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary, the 2021 Notes or 2021 Note Guarantees, as applicable, are contemporaneously secured by a Lien on such property or assets on an equal and ratable basis with the Senior Indebtedness so secured until such time as such Senior Indebtedness is no longer so secured by a Lien.

Any Lien on property or assets of TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries created for the benefit of holders of the 2021 Notes pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall provide by its terms that such Lien shall be

97

automatically and unconditionally released and discharged at such time as there are no other Liens of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) on such property or assets securing Indebtedness.

Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries

TLLP will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP (other than Finance Corp.) that is not a Guarantor to:

(1) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Equity Interests to TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any Indebtedness owed to TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;providedthat the priority of any preferred equity or similar Equity Interest in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to the payment of dividends or liquidating distributions on common equity shall not be deemed to be a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock;

(2) make loans or advances to TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

(3) sell, lease or transfer any of its properties or assets to TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

However, the preceding restrictions do not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

(16) secured Indebtedness that limits the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets securing such Indebtedness and any related encumbrance or restriction contained in security agreements, mortgages or purchase money agreements.

Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets

Neither of the Issuers may, directly or indirectly: (1) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or not such Issuer is the surviving entity) or (2) sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Issuers and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to another Person, unless:

(1) either: (a) such Issuer is the surviving entity or (b) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made is a Person organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia;provided,however, that Finance Corp. may not consolidate or merge with or into any Person other than a corporation satisfying such requirement so long as TLLP (or any successor entity) is not a corporation;

(2) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Issuer) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made assumes all the obligations of such Issuer under the 2021 Notes, the 2021 Notes Indenture and, if then in effect, the 2021 Notes Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the trustee;

(3) immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists;

(4) in the case of a transaction involving TLLP and not Finance Corp., TLLP or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than TLLP), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made will, (a) on the date of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable Reference Period, be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the covenant described above under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity”; or (b) have a

99

Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, on the date of such transaction and after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable Reference Period, not less than the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of TLLP immediately prior to such transaction; and

(5) such Issuer has delivered to the trustee an officers’ certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger or disposition and such supplemental indenture (if any) comply with the 2021 Notes Indenture.

Upon any transaction or series of related transactions that are of the type described in, and are effected in accordance with, the foregoing paragraph, the surviving Person (if other than such Issuer) shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, such Issuer under the 2021 Notes Indenture and the 2021 Notes with the same effect as if such surviving Person had been named as such Issuer in the 2021 Notes Indenture, and when a surviving Person duly assumes all of the obligations and covenants of such Issuer pursuant to the 2021 Notes Indenture and the 2021 Notes, the predecessor Person shall be relieved of all such obligations.

This “Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets” covenant will not apply to any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition of assets between or among TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries. Clauses (3) and (4) of the first paragraph of this covenant will not apply to any merger or consolidation of either Issuer (1) with or into one of TLLP’s Restricted Subsidiaries for any purpose or (2) with or into an Affiliate solely for the purpose of reincorporating such Issuer in another jurisdiction.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, TLLP is permitted to reorganize as any other form of entity in accordance with the procedures established in the 2021 Notes Indenture;providedthat:

(1) the reorganization involves the conversion (by merger, sale, contribution or exchange of assets or otherwise) of TLLP into a form of entity other than a limited partnership formed under Delaware law;

(2) the entity so formed by or resulting from such reorganization is an entity organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

(3) the entity so formed by or resulting from such reorganization assumes all the Obligations of TLLP under the 2021 Notes, the 2021 Notes Indenture and, if then in effect, the 2021 Notes Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the trustee;

(4) immediately after such reorganization no Default or Event of Default exists; and

(5) such reorganization is not adverse to the holders of the 2021 Notes (for purposes of this clause (5) it is stipulated that such reorganization shall not be considered adverse to the holders of the 2021 Notes solely because the successor or survivor of such reorganization (a) is subject to federal or state income taxation as an entity or (b) is considered to be an “includible corporation” of an affiliated group of corporations within the meaning of Section 1504(b) of the Code, or any similar state or local law).

Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, in certain circumstances there may be a degree of uncertainty as to whether a particular transaction would involve “all or substantially all” of the properties or assets of a Person.

Transactions with Affiliates

TLLP will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of TLLP (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”) if such Affiliate Transaction involves aggregate consideration in excess of $1.0 million, unless:

(1) the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to TLLP or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could have been obtained in a comparable transaction by TLLP or such Restricted

100

Subsidiary with an unrelated Person or, if no comparable transaction is available with which to compare such Affiliate Transaction, such Affiliate Transaction is otherwise fair to TLLP or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view; and

(2) TLLP delivers to the trustee with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $25.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of the General Partner set forth in an officers’ certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (1) above and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by either the Conflicts Committee of the Board of Directors of the General Partner (so long as the members of the Conflicts Committee approving the Affiliate Transaction are disinterested) or a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the General Partner.

The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of the prior paragraph:

(1) reasonable fees and compensation paid to or for the benefit of any employee, officer or director of TLLP, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or the General Partner, and any employment agreement, customary benefit program or arrangement (including vacation plans, health and life insurance plans, deferred compensation plans and retirement or savings and similar plans), equity award, equity option or equity appreciation agreement or plan, officer or director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement entered into by TLLP, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or the General Partner existing on the Issue Date, or entered into thereafter in the ordinary course of business, and any indemnities or other transactions permitted or required by bylaw, statutory provisions or any of the foregoing agreements, plans or arrangements;

(2) transactions between or among TLLP and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(3) transactions with a Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary of TLLP) that is an Affiliate of TLLP solely because TLLP owns, directly or through a Restricted Subsidiary, an Equity Interest in, or controls, such Person;

(4) any issuance of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Equity) of TLLP to Affiliates of TLLP;

(5) Restricted Payments or Permitted Investments that do not violate the provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture described above under the caption “—Restricted Payments”;

(6) customary compensation, indemnification and other benefits made available to officers, directors or employees of TLLP, a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP or the General Partner, including reimbursement or advancement of out-of-pocket expenses and provisions of officers’ and directors’ liability insurance;

(7) in the case of gathering, transportation, marketing, hedging, production handling, operating, construction, terminalling, storage, lease, platform use, or other operational contracts, any such contracts that are entered into in the ordinary course of business on terms substantially similar to those contained in similar contracts entered into by TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary and third parties, or if neither TLLP nor any Restricted Subsidiary has entered into a similar contract with a third party, that the terms are no less favorable than those available from third parties on an arm’s-length basis, as determined by the Board of Directors of the General Partner;

(8) loans or advances to employees in the ordinary course of business not to exceed $1.0 million in the aggregate at any one time outstanding;

(9) the existence of, or the performance by TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary of its obligations under the terms of, any written agreement in effect on the Issue Date, as such agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time and any similar agreements which it may enter into thereafter;provided,however, that the existence of, or the performance by TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary of its obligations under, any future amendment to such agreements or under any such similar agreements shall only be permitted by this clause (9) to the extent that the terms of any such amendment or new agreement,

101

taken as a whole, are not less favorable to the Holders in any material respect as compared to the terms of the agreement in effect on the Issue Date;

(10) any transaction in which TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the trustee a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to TLLP or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or that such transaction meets the requirements of clause (1) of the preceding paragraph;

(11) guarantees of performance by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business, except for guarantees of Indebtedness in respect of borrowed money;

(12) (a) guarantees by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of performance of obligations of Unrestricted Subsidiaries or Joint Ventures in the ordinary course of business, except for guarantees of Indebtedness in respect of borrowed money, and (b) pledges by TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary of Capital Stock in Unrestricted Subsidiaries or Joint Ventures for the benefit of lenders or other creditors of Unrestricted Subsidiaries or Joint Ventures as contemplated by clause (13) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” with respect to clause (b) so long as any such transaction, if involving aggregate consideration in excess of $25.0 million, has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the General Partner;

(13) any transactions between TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Person, a director of which is also a director of TLLP or a Restricted Subsidiary;providedthat such director abstains from voting as a director of TLLP or the Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, in connection with the approval of the transaction; and

(14) any purchase or other acquisition or related transaction pursuant to the Omnibus Agreement.

Limitations on Finance Corp. Activities

Finance Corp. may not incur Indebtedness unless (1) TLLP is a borrower, issuer, co-issuer or guarantor of such Indebtedness or (2) the net proceeds of such Indebtedness are loaned to TLLP, used to acquire outstanding debt securities issued by TLLP or used to repay Indebtedness of TLLP as permitted under the covenant described above under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity.” Finance Corp. may not engage in any business not related directly or indirectly to obtaining money or arranging financing for TLLP or its Restricted Subsidiaries.

Additional Guarantors

If, after the Issue Date, any Domestic Subsidiary (other than Finance Corp.) of TLLP that is not already a Guarantor guarantees any other Indebtedness of either of the Issuers under a Credit Facility, then that Subsidiary will become a Guarantor by executing and delivering a supplemental indenture to the trustee within 30 business days of the date on which it guaranteed or incurred such Indebtedness;provided,that the preceding shall not apply to Subsidiaries of TLLP that have been properly designated as Unrestricted Subsidiaries in accordance with the 2021 Notes Indenture for so long as they continue to constitute Unrestricted Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the preceding, any Guarantee of a Restricted Subsidiary that was incurred pursuant to this paragraph will be released in the circumstances described under “—2021 Note Guarantees.”

Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries

The Board of Directors of the General Partner may designate any Subsidiary of TLLP to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the covenant described above under the caption “—Restricted Payments” or under one or more clauses of the

102

definition of “Permitted Investments,” as determined by TLLP;providedthat any designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an “Unrestricted Subsidiary.”

Any designation of a Subsidiary of TLLP as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the trustee by filing with the trustee a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of the General Partner giving effect to such designation and an officers’ certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by the covenant described above under the caption “—Restricted Payments.” If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of the 2021 Notes Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under the covenant described under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity,” TLLP will be in default of such covenant. The Board of Directors of the General Partner may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP;providedthat such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under the covenant described under the caption “—Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Disqualified Equity,” calculated on a pro forma basis and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.

Reports

Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, so long as any 2021 Notes are outstanding, TLLP will furnish (whether through hard copy or Internet access) to the holders of 2021 Notes or cause the trustee to furnish to the holders of 2021 Notes, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations:

(1) all quarterly and annual reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if TLLP were required to file such reports, including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”; and

(2) all current reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Form 8-K if TLLP were required to file such reports.

All such reports will be prepared in all material respects in accordance with all of the rules and regulations applicable to such reports. Each annual report on Form 10-K will include a report on TLLP’s consolidated financial statements by TLLP’s independent registered public accounting firm. In addition, TLLP will file a copy of each of the reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) above with the SEC for public availability within the time periods specified in the rules and regulations applicable to such reports (unless the SEC will not accept such a filing) and will post the reports on its website within those time periods.

If, at any time TLLP is no longer subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, TLLP will nevertheless continue filing the reports specified in the preceding paragraphs of this covenant with the SEC within the time periods specified above unless the SEC will not accept such a filing;providedthat, for so long as TLLP is not subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for any reason, the time period for filing reports on Form 8-K shall be five business days after the event giving rise to the obligation to file such report. If the SEC will not accept TLLP’s filings for any reason, TLLP will post the reports referred to in the preceding paragraphs on its website within the time periods that would apply if TLLP were required to file those reports with the SEC.

If TLLP has designated any of its Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries, then, to the extent material, the quarterly and annual financial information required by the preceding paragraph will include a reasonably detailed

103

presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, or in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the financial condition and results of operations of TLLP and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries of TLLP.

In addition, the Issuers and the Guarantors have agreed that, for so long as any 2021 Notes remain outstanding, if at any time they are not required to file with the SEC the reports required by the preceding paragraphs, they will furnish to the holders of 2021 Notes and to securities analysts and prospective investors in the 2021 Notes, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

TLLP will be deemed to have furnished such reports to the trustee and the holders of the 2021 Notes if it has filed such reports with the SEC using the EDGAR filing system (or any successor thereto) and such reports are publicly available.

Events of Default and Remedies

Each of the following is an “Event of Default”:

(1) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest and Special Interest, if any, with respect to the 2021 Notes;

(2) default in the payment when due (at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise) of the principal of, or premium, if any, on, the 2021 Notes;

(3) failure by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 30 days after written notice to TLLP by the trustee or holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes then outstanding voting as a single class to make a Change of Control Offer within the time periods set forth, or consummate a purchase of 2021 Notes when required pursuant to the terms described, under the captions “—Repurchase at the Option of Holders—Change of Control Triggering Event” or comply with the provisions described under the caption “—Certain Covenants—Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets”;

(4) failure by TLLP for 120 days after written notice to TLLP by the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes then outstanding voting as a single class to comply with the covenant described under “—Certain Covenants—Reports”;

(5) failure by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 60 days after notice to TLLP by the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes then outstanding voting as a single class to comply with any of the other agreements in the 2021 Notes Indenture;

(6) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries), whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the Issue Date, if that default:

(a) is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such Indebtedness (a “Payment Default”);or

(b) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity, and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates, without duplication, $25.0 million or more;

(7) failure by an Issuer or any of TLLP’s Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary to pay final judgments entered by a court or courts of competent jurisdiction aggregating in excess of $25.0 million

104

(excluding amounts covered by insurance policies issued by reputable and creditworthy insurance companies for which coverage has not been disclaimed), which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days;

(8) except as permitted by the 2021 Notes Indenture, any 2021 Note Guarantee from a Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary is held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or ceases for any reason to be in full force and effect, or any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary, denies or disaffirms its Obligations under its 2021 Note Guarantee; and

(9) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency described in the 2021 Notes Indenture with respect to Finance Corp., TLLP or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary.

In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, with respect to Finance Corp., TLLP or any Restricted Subsidiary of TLLP that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of TLLP that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding 2021 Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2021 Notes may declare all the 2021 Notes to be due and payable immediately.

Subject to certain limitations, holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2021 Notes may direct the trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The trustee may withhold from holders of the 2021 Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal, interest and Special Interest, if any, or premium, if any.

In the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (6) of the first paragraph under this caption, such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding, however, any resulting payment default) will be annulled, waived and rescinded with respect to the 2021 Notes, automatically and without any action by the trustee or the holders of such 2021 Notes, if within 60 days after such Event of Default first arose TLLP delivers an officers’ certificate to the trustee stating that (a) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged, (b) the holders of the Indebtedness have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default or (c) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured.

Subject to the provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture relating to the duties of the trustee, in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the 2021 Notes Indenture at the request or direction of any holders of 2021 Notes unless such holders have offered to the trustee reasonable indemnity or security against any loss, liability or expense. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest and Special Interest, if any, when due, no holder of a 2021 Note may pursue any remedy with respect to the 2021 Notes Indenture or the 2021 Notes unless:

(1) such holder has previously given the trustee notice that an Event of Default is continuing;

(2) holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2021 Notes have requested the trustee to pursue the remedy;

(3) such holders have offered the trustee reasonable security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense;

(4) the trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and

(5) holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2021 Notes have not given the trustee a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

105

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2021 Notes by notice to the trustee may, on behalf of the holders of all of the 2021 Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the 2021 Notes Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest and Special Interest, if any, or premium, if any, on, or the principal of, the 2021 Notes.

The Issuers and the Guarantors are required to deliver to the trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the 2021 Notes Indenture. Upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, the Issuers and the Guarantors are required to deliver to the trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default.

No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Unitholders

No director, officer, partner, member, employee, incorporator, manager or unitholder or other owner of Equity Interest of the Issuers, the General Partner or any of their Subsidiaries, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuers or any Guarantor under the 2021 Notes, the 2021 Notes Indenture, the 2021 Note Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each holder of 2021 Notes by accepting a 2021 Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the 2021 Notes and the 2021 Note Guarantees. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.

Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance

The Issuers may at their option and at any time, elect to have all of the Issuers’ obligations discharged with respect to the outstanding 2021 Notes and all Obligations of the Guarantors discharged with respect to their 2021 Note Guarantees (“Legal Defeasance”) except for:

(1) the rights of holders of outstanding 2021 Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, or interest and Special Interest, if any, or premium, if any, on, such 2021 Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to below;

(2) the Issuers’ obligations with respect to the 2021 Notes concerning issuing temporary 2021 Notes, registration of 2021 Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen 2021 Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust;

(3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the trustee, and the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ Obligations in connection therewith; and

(4) the Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance provisions of the 2021 Notes Indenture.

In addition, TLLP may, at its option and at any time, elect to have the Obligations of the Issuers and the Guarantors released with respect to certain covenants (including its obligation to make Change of Control Offers and Asset Sale Offers) that are described in the 2021 Notes Indenture (“Covenant Defeasance”) and all Obligations of the Guarantor with respect to their 2021 Note Guarantees discharged, and thereafter any omission to comply with those covenants or 2021 Note Guarantees will not constitute a Default or Event of Default with respect to the 2021 Notes or the 2021 Note Guarantees. In the event Covenant Defeasance occurs, certain events (not including non-payment, bankruptcy, receivership, rehabilitation and insolvency events relating to TLLP) described under “—Events of Default and Remedies” will no longer constitute an Event of Default with respect to the 2021 Notes. If the Issuers exercise either their Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance option, each Guarantor will be released and relieved of any obligations under its 2021 Note Guarantee and any security for the 2021 Notes (other than the trust) will be released.

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance:

(1) the Issuers must irrevocably deposit with the trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the holders of the 2021 Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such

Concerning the Trustee

If the trustee becomes a creditor of the Issuers or any Guarantor, the 2021 Notes Indenture limits the right of the trustee to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on certain property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. The trustee is permitted to engage in other transactions; however, if it acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in the Trust Indenture Act) it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue as trustee (if the 2021 Notes Indenture has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act) or resign.

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2021 Notes have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the trustee, subject to certain exceptions. The 2021 Notes Indenture provides that in case an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the trustee will be required, in the exercise of its power, to use the degree of care and skill of a prudent person in the conduct of his or her own affairs. Subject to such provisions, the trustee will be under no

109

obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the 2021 Notes Indenture at the request of any holder of 2021 Notes, unless such holder has offered to the trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

128

CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX

CONSEQUENCES OF THE EXCHANGE OFFERS

The exchange of outstanding notes for exchange notes in the exchange offers will not constitute a taxable event to holders for United States federal income tax purposes. Consequently, you will not recognize gain or loss upon receipt of an exchange note, the holding period of the exchange note will include the holding period of the outstanding note exchanged therefor and the basis of the exchange note will be the same as the basis of the outstanding note immediately before the exchange.

In any event, persons considering the exchange of outstanding notes for exchange notes should consult their own tax advisors concerning the United States federal income tax consequences in light of their particular situations as well as any consequences arising under the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction.

129

CERTAIN ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

The following is a summary of certain considerations associated with the acquisition and holding of the notes (and the exchange of outstanding notes for exchange notes) by employee benefit plans that are subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), plans, individual retirement accounts and other arrangements that are subject to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) or provisions under any other federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other laws or regulations that are similar to such provisions of the Code or ERISA (collectively, “Similar Laws”), and entities whose underlying assets are considered to include “plan assets” of any such plan, account or arrangement (each, a “Plan”).

General Fiduciary Matters

ERISA and the Code impose certain duties on persons who are fiduciaries of a Plan subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (an “ERISA Plan”) and prohibit certain transactions involving the assets of an ERISA Plan and its fiduciaries or other interested parties. Under ERISA and the Code, any person who exercises any discretionary authority or control over the administration of such an ERISA Plan or the management or disposition of the assets of such an ERISA Plan, or who renders investment advice for a fee or other compensation to such an ERISA Plan, is generally considered to be a fiduciary of the ERISA Plan.

In considering an investment in the notes (or the exchange of outstanding notes for exchange notes) of a portion of the assets of any Plan, a fiduciary should determine whether the investment is in accordance with the documents and instruments governing the Plan and the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code or any Similar Law relating to a fiduciary’s duties to the Plan including, without limitation, the prudence, diversification, delegation of control and prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA, the Code and any other applicable Similar Laws.

Prohibited Transaction Issues

Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code prohibit ERISA Plans from engaging in specified transactions involving plan assets with persons or entities who are “parties in interest,” within the meaning of ERISA, or “disqualified persons,” within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Code, unless an exemption is available. A party in interest or disqualified person who engaged in a non-exempt prohibited transaction may be subject to excise taxes and other penalties and liabilities under ERISA and the Code. In addition, the fiduciary of the ERISA Plan that engaged in such a non-exempt prohibited transaction may be subject to penalties and liabilities under ERISA and the Code. The acquisition and/or holding of notes (including the exchange of outstanding notes for exchange notes) by an ERISA Plan with respect to which an Issuer or a guarantor is considered a party in interest or a disqualified person may constitute or result in a direct or indirect prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code, unless the investment is acquired and is held in accordance with an applicable statutory, class or individual prohibited transaction exemption. In this regard, the U.S. Department of Labor has issued prohibited transaction class exemptions, or “PTCEs,” that may apply to the acquisition and holding of the notes. These class exemptions include, without limitation, PTCE84-14 respecting transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers, PTCE 90-1 respecting insurance company pooled separate accounts, PTCE 91-38 respecting bank collective investment funds, PTCE 95-60 respecting life insurance company general accounts and PTCE 96-23 respecting transactions determined by in-house asset managers. In addition, Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA and Section 4975(d)(20) of the Code provide relief from the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code for certain transactions, provided that neither the issuer of the securities nor any of its affiliates (directly or indirectly) have or exercise any discretionary authority or control or render any investment advice with respect to the assets of any ERISA Plan involved in the transaction and provided further that the ERISA Plan pays no more than adequate consideration in connection with the transaction. There can be no assurance that all of the conditions of any such exemptions will be satisfied.

130

Because of the foregoing, the notes should not be acquired or held by any person investing “plan assets” of any Plan, unless such acquisition and holding (and the exchange of outstanding notes for exchange notes) will not constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA and the Code or a similar violation of any applicable Similar Laws.

Representation

Accordingly, by acceptance of a note (including an exchange of outstanding notes for exchange notes), each purchaser and subsequent transferee of a note will be deemed to have represented and warranted that either (i) no portion of the assets used by such purchaser or transferee to acquire or hold the notes constitutes assets of any Plan or (ii) the acquisition, holding and disposition of the notes by such purchaser or transferee will not constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a similar violation under any applicable Similar Laws.

The foregoing discussion is general in nature and is not intended to be all inclusive. Due to the complexity of these rules and the penalties that may be imposed upon persons involved in non-exempt prohibited transactions, it is particularly important that fiduciaries, or other persons considering acquiring any notes on behalf of, or with the assets of, any Plan, consult with their counsel regarding the potential applicability of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code and any Similar Laws to such investment and whether an exemption would be applicable to any such acquisition or holding of the notes.

131

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account pursuant to an exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of exchange notes received in exchange for outstanding notes where such outstanding notes were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. We have agreed that, for a period of up to 90 days after the date the registration statement in connection with the exchange notes becomes effective, we will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, all dealers effecting transactions in the exchange notes may be required to deliver a prospectus.

We will not receive any proceeds from any sale of exchange notes by broker-dealers. Exchange notes received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to an exchange offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the exchange notes or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer and/or the purchasers of any such exchange notes. Any broker-dealer that resells exchange notes that were received by it for its own account pursuant to an exchange offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such exchange notes may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any profit of any such resale of exchange notes and any commission or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The letter of transmittal states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act.

For a period of up to 90 days after the consummation of the exchange offers, we will promptly send additional copies of this prospectus and any amendments or supplements to this prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents in the letter of transmittal. We have agreed to pay all expenses incident to the exchange offers (including the expenses of one counsel for the holders of the outstanding notes) other than commissions or concessions of any broker-dealers and will indemnify you (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

(b) Financial Statement Schedules

All schedules are omitted because the required information is either not present, not present in material amounts or presented within the consolidated financial statements included in the prospectus and are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 22. Undertakings

(a) Each of the undersigned registrants hereby undertakes:

(1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

(2) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;

(3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering;

(4) that, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, if the registrants are subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use; and

(5) that, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrants under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities:

(b) Each of the undersigned registrants undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrants pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the

II-5

securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrants will be sellers to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

(c) Each of the undersigned registrants hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of such registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(d) Each of the undersigned registrants hereby undertakes to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11 or 13 of Form S-4, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.

(e) Each of the undersigned registrants hereby undertakes to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective.

(f) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
