Announces No Significant Impact From Hurricane Rita</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;KILGORE, TX &#150; September&nbsp;26, 2005 &#150; Martin Midstream Partners L.P. (Nasdaq: MMLP) (&#147;MMLP&#148; or
the &#147;Partnership&#148;) announced today it expects no significant impact on its operations as a result
of Hurricane Rita. Prior to Hurricane Rita, as with Katrina, the partnership enacted its standard
hurricane preparation protocol. This included a temporary suspension of various operating
activities including certain terminalling and marine operations, as well as a total evacuation of
employees in the path of Rita.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;After a tour on September&nbsp;25, 2005, senior management observed no damage to its marine
vessels and has concluded the impact to our storage and terminalling facilities was minimal. We
fully expect to be operational at our affected locations within days awaiting our customers, namely
area refineries and offshore E&#038;P companies, to return to their normal operations. Although we may
have disruptions at some of the partnership&#146;s locations, we expect to service our customer base
from other MMLP terminals.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Statements about Martin Midstream Partners&#146; outlook and all other statements in this release
other than historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements and all references to
financial estimates rely on a number of assumptions concerning future events and are subject to a
number of uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside its control, which could cause
actual results to differ materially from such statements. While MMLP believes that the assumptions
concerning future events are reasonable, it cautions that there are inherent difficulties in
anticipating or predicting certain important factors. A discussion of these factors, including
risks and uncertainties, is set forth in the Company&#146;s annual and quarterly reports filed from time
to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Martin Midstream Partners disclaims any
intention or obligation to revise any forward-looking statements, including financial estimates,
whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
