<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt"><B>MARTIN MIDSTREAM PARTNERS ANNOUNCES NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT<BR>
FROM HURRICANE KATRINA</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;KILGORE, TX &#151; August&nbsp;30, 2005 &#151; Martin Midstream Partners L.P. (Nasdaq: MMLP) (&#147;MMLP&#148; or
the &#147;Partnership&#148;) announced today that it expects no significant impact on its operations as a
result of Hurricane Katrina. Prior to Hurricane Katrina, the Partnership enacted its standard
hurricane preparation protocol resulting in a temporary suspension of various operating activities,
including certain terminalling and marine operations. Based on a current assessment of these
operations, however, the Partnership does not anticipate any significant change to its operating
results due to Hurricane Katrina.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ruben S. Martin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Martin Midstream GP LLC, the general
partner of MMLP stated, &#147;First and foremost, our thoughts are with our personnel, their families
and all those affected by Hurricane Katrina. Our primary concern will continue to be the safety
and wellbeing of all of our employees. Regarding the Partnership&#146;s assets, all of the marine
vessels are currently operating as normal, including our offshore vessels, the Poseidon and the
Margaret Sue. Unlike last year&#146;s experience with multiple hurricanes in Florida, we do not expect
any decline in consumption of molten sulfur at our Tampa facility. Because the majority of our
transported sulfur originates from Texas and western Louisiana, we do not anticipate a disruption
of our sulfur supply. In addition, substantially all of our terminalling facilities are currently
operating as normal. While we have experienced damage to our terminal in Venice, LA, we continue
to serve those affected customers at our additional facilities located in Louisiana and Texas.
Therefore, we do not expect any meaningful impact to our operating income as a result of Hurricane
Katrina.&#148; The Venice, LA facility is located 70 miles southeast of New Orleans and currently
accounts for approximately 1% of the Partnership&#146;s operating income. This facility is not
considered material to the financial performance of MMLP.
