Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On October 6, 2023, USD Partners LP (the “Partnership”) entered into an agreement (the “Waiver Extension Agreement”) with (i) all the Lenders under the secured Credit Agreement (as amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among the Partnership, USD Terminals Canada ULC, an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership (together with the Partnership, the “Borrowers”), the subsidiary guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Bank of Montreal, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), and (ii) the Administrative Agent.

As previously disclosed, on August 8, 2023, the Partnership entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Fourth Amendment”), pursuant to which the Lenders agreed to forebear through and including October 10, 2023 (the “Expiration Date”), from exercising any rights or remedies arising from certain defaults or events of default asserted by the Administrative Agent, which the Partnership disputed, or certain prospective defaults or events of default under the Credit Agreement and other loan documents arising from, among other things, any failure to disclose certain events that give or may give rise to a Material Adverse Effect.

Pursuant to the Waiver Extension Agreement, the Lenders and Administrative Agent have agreed to, among other things, (i) extend the Expiration Date to November 3, 2023 (the “New Expiration Date”) and (ii) waive the event of default arising from the non-payment of the interest due on October 10, 2023 until the New Expiration Date. As a condition to the Waiver Extension Agreement, among other things, the Borrowers have agreed to terminate certain hedge agreements and swap contracts and apply all proceeds thereof to repayment of the obligations then outstanding under the Credit Agreement. In addition, the Waiver Extension Letter reduces the aggregate commitments under the Credit Agreement and the sublimit for letters of credit under the Credit Agreement, which reduced amounts are equal to outstanding borrowings. As provided for in the Fourth Amendment, the Partnership has agreed not to make any additional requests for new borrowings or letters of credit, or convert outstanding loans from one type to another, in each case under the Credit Agreement, which may further impact its liquidity. As of October 6, 2023, there was $195.9 million of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

The above description of the terms of the Waiver Extension Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Waiver Extension Agreement, which is attached as an exhibit hereto and incorporated herein by reference, and the full text of the Fourth Amendment, which is attached as an exhibit to the Partnership’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meaning set forth in the Waiver Extension Agreement. The above information is also qualified by reference to the “Risk Factors” provided in the Partnership’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2023, which shall be deemed updated for the information provided herein, and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Re: Agreement to Extend Temporary Waiver Period and Waiver of Event of Default for Missed Interest Payment (this “Agreement”)
Ladies and Gentlemen:

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement.
A.    The Borrowers and Guarantors have requested that the Expiration Date (as defined in Amendment No. 4) of October 10, 2023, be extended to November 3, 2023 (the “Extension Request”). Pursuant to the definition of the Expiration Date in Amendment No. 4, the Borrowers and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, on the other hand, may extend the Expiration Date.
B.    The Borrowers will fail to make the next interest payment due under the Credit Agreement on October 10, 2023 (the “Interest Payment”). Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, failure to make the Interest Payment will result in an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a)(ii) of the Credit Agreement (the “Interest Payment Default”). The Borrowers have requested that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders temporarily waive the Interest Payment Default. Each Borrower and each Guarantor hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, absent the temporary waiver of the Interest Payment Default granted hereunder, have certain rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided to them under the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents resulting from the occurrence of the Interest Payment Default, and that upon the Expiration Date, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the ability to exercise of any of such rights, remedies, powers and privileges resulting from the occurrence of the Interest Payment Default.
C.    Each Borrower and each Guarantor hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are entering into this Agreement in reliance on the representations and warranties herein by the Borrowers and the Guarantors.



1.    Extension Request and Limited Waiver. At the request of the Borrowers and the Guarantors, and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and in consideration of the agreements herein contained, including the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5 below, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree (a) to extend the Expiration Date to November 3, 2023, and (b) to waive the Interest Payment Default on a temporary basis until the Expiration Date (as extended herein) (the period from the Effective Date (defined below) until the Expiration Date shall herein be called, “Short Term Waiver Period”), INSOFAR AS AND ONLY FOR SO LONG AS no Default or Event of Default (other than the Interest Payment Default and the Specified Events of Default as defined in Amendment No. 4, together the “Subject Defaults”) has occurred and is continuing on the date hereof or at any time during the Short Term Waiver Period. The Lenders hereby direct the Administrative Agent to not take any action or enforce any remedies under the Loan Documents or applicable law against the Borrowers or Guarantors solely with respect to the Subject Defaults through the Expiration Date and the expiration of the Short Term Waiver Period. The Lenders shall not direct the Administrative Agent to take any action or enforce any remedies under the Loan Documents or applicable law against the Borrowers or Guarantors solely with respect to the Subject Defaults through the Expiration Date and the expiration of the Short Term Waiver Period.
2.    Reduction of Commitments. In consideration for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agreeing to the Extension Request and agreeing to a limited waiver of the Interest Payment Default for the Short Term Waiver Period, the Borrowers and the Guarantors hereby agree that as of the Effective Date (defined below) (a) the Aggregate Commitments shall be reduced as reflected on Schedule I attached hereto, and the Commitment of each Lender shall be in the amount set forth opposite its name on such Schedule I, (b) the Letter of Credit Sublimit amount and the L/C Issuer Sublimit amounts for each L/C Issuer shall be permanently reduced to zero, (c) the Swing Line Sublimit amount shall be permanently reduced to zero, and (d) any prepayment of principal (including any prepayment of principle resulting from the Hedge Terminations (defined below)) shall automatically reduce the Aggregate Commitments by such prepayment amount, and the Commitment of each Lender shall be reduced by such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such prepayment amount. The amount of all outstanding Loans shall be reallocated among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments.
