Commercial Agreements
The Partnership has a number of long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with Delek Holdings under which we provide various services, including crude oil gathering and crude oil, intermediate and refined products transportation and storage services, and marketing, terminalling and offloading services to Delek Holdings. Most of these agreements have an initial term ranging from five to ten years, which may be extended for various renewal terms at the option of Delek Holdings. The fees under each agreement are payable to us monthly by Delek Holdings or certain third parties to whom Delek Holdings has assigned certain of its rights and are generally subject to increase or decrease on July 1 of each year, by the amount of any change in various inflation-based indices, however, in no event will the fees be adjusted below the amount initially set forth in the applicable agreement. Under each of these agreements, we are required to maintain the capabilities of our pipelines and terminals, such that Delek Holdings may throughput and/or store, as the case may be, specified volumes of crude oil, intermediate and refined products.
On August 5, 2024, the Partnership amended and extended expired, or soon to be expired, commercial agreements with subsidiaries of Delek Holdings under which we provide various services, including crude oil gathering and crude oil, intermediate and refined products transportation and storage services, and marketing, terminalling and offloading services to Delek Holdings. These amendments required the embedded leases within these agreements to be reassessed under ASC 842. As a result, certain leases were reclassified from operating leases to sales-type leases (see Note 16 for further information on sales-type leases).
These agreements have an initial term of five to seven years, with the ability to extend for an additional five years at Delek Holdings' option and were effective as of July 1, 2024. The initial expiration dates for these agreements range from 2028 to 2036. Certain of these contracts have rate adjustments to be phased in through 2026.
In addition, on August 5, 2024, the Partnership entered into an assignment agreement with Delek Holdings to assign its rights and obligations under the Big Spring Refinery Marketing Agreement to Delek Holdings. As consideration for this agreement, the Partnership redeemed 2,500,000 common units representing limited partnership interest in us held by Delek Holdings. Associated with such marketing agreement was a contract intangible with a carrying value of $97.9 million at the closing date of the assignment. This intangible was transferred to Delek Holdings in conjunction with the assignment.
On May 1, 2025, the Partnership entered into an agreement to terminate, in its entirety, the East Texas Marketing Agreement effective as of January 1, 2026.
On May 1, 2025, in connection with the DPG Dropdown (as defined below), the Partnership amended and restated a throughput agreement with Delek Holdings for the El Dorado rail facility (the “Throughput Agreement”), which includes a minimum volume commitment for refined products until the termination of the Throughput Agreement, which will occur at the closing of the El Dorado Purchase (as defined below).
Additionally, on May 1, 2025, in connection with the DPG Dropdown, the Partnership and Delek Holdings, entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “El Dorado Purchase Agreement”), whereby Delek Holdings would purchase the related El Dorado rail facility assets from the Partnership for cash consideration of $25.0 million (the “El Dorado Purchase”). The El Dorado Purchase closed in January 2026, subject to certain closing conditions as set forth in the El Dorado Purchase Agreement.
Other Agreements with Delek Holdings
In addition to the commercial agreements described above, the Partnership has entered into the following agreements with Delek Holdings:
Omnibus Agreement
On November 7, 2012, the Partnership entered into an omnibus agreement with Delek Holdings, our general partner, Delek Logistics Operating, LLC, Lion Oil Company, LLC and certain of the Partnership’s and Delek Holdings' other subsidiaries, which has been amended and restated from time to time in connection with acquisitions from Delek Holdings (collectively, as amended and restated, the "Omnibus Agreement"). The Omnibus Agreement governs the provision of certain operational services and reimbursement obligations, among other matters, between the Partnership and Delek Holdings, and obligates us to pay an annual fee of $8.7 million to Delek Holdings for its provision of centralized corporate services to the Partnership.
On August 5, 2024 we entered into an amended and restated Omnibus Agreement with Delek Holdings that provides Delek Holdings an option to purchase certain critical assets from us at market value during the period beginning upon any change in control or sale of substantially all assets involving us and extending (i) in the case of a transaction involving a third party, for six months following closing, and (ii) for any other transaction, for four years following closing.
On May 1, 2025, the Partnership entered into an amended and restated Omnibus Agreement with Delek Holdings that provides for an increase in the Administrative Fee (as defined therein), which is being phased in over the two years beginning July 1, 2025, and a binding obligation for both parties to enter into transition services agreements in the event of a change in control.
Pursuant to the terms of the Omnibus Agreement, we are reimbursed by Delek Holdings for certain capital expenditures. These amounts are recorded in other long-term liabilities and are amortized to revenue over the life of the underlying revenue agreement corresponding to the asset. There were no reimbursements by Delek Holdings during the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. We were reimbursed a nominal amount during the year ended December 31, 2023. Additionally, we are reimbursed or indemnified, as the case may be, for costs incurred in excess of certain amounts related to certain asset failures, pursuant to the terms of the Omnibus Agreement. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there was no receivable from related parties for these matters. These reimbursements are recorded as reductions to operating expense. There were no reimbursements for these matters during years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
Other Agreements
Our general partner operates our business on our behalf and is entitled under our Partnership Agreement to be reimbursed for the cost of providing those services, which include certain labor related costs. We and our subsidiaries paid Delek Holdings approximately $54.8 million, $42.3 million and $31.0 million pursuant to the Partnership Agreement during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. These amounts are included in operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.
Delek Permian Gathering Dropdown
On May 1, 2025, Delek Holdings transferred the Delek Permian Gathering purchasing and blending activities to the Partnership (the "DPG Dropdown”). In connection with the DPG Dropdown, the Partnership assumed all of Delek Holdings’ rights and obligations to purchase crude oil under certain contracts associated with the Partnership’s existing Midland Gathering System. In addition, line fill inventory amounting to $6.9 million was transferred to the Partnership. Total consideration included the cancellation of $58.8 million in existing receivables owed to the Partnership by Delek Holdings. Since this transaction was between entities under common control, the impact was recorded as a distribution in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of partners' equity.
Summary of Transactions
Income from affiliates consist primarily of revenues from gathering, transportation, storage, offloading, Renewable Identification Numbers, wholesale marketing and products terminalling services provided primarily to Delek Holdings under commercial agreements based on regulated tariff rates or contractually based fees and product sales, and interest income associated with those commercial agreements classified as sales-type leases.

These expenses could also include reimbursement and indemnification amounts from Delek Holdings, as provided under the Omnibus Agreement. Additionally, the Partnership is required to reimburse Delek Holdings for direct or allocated costs and expenses incurred by Delek Holdings on behalf of the Partnership and for charges Delek Holdings incurred for the management and operation of our logistics assets, including an annual fee for various centralized corporate services, which are included in general and administrative expenses.
