Organization and Description of Business ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Martin Midstream Partners L.P. (the "Partnership") is a publicly traded limited partnership with a diverse set of operations focused primarily in the Gulf Coast region of the U.S. Its four primary business lines include: terminalling, processing, storage and packaging services for petroleum products and by-products including the refining of naphthenic crude oil; land and marine transportation services for petroleum products and by-products, chemicals, and specialty products; sulfur and sulfur-based products processing, manufacturing, marketing and distribution; and NGL marketing, distribution, and transportation services.

    The Partnership provides specialty services to major and independent oil and gas companies, independent refiners, large chemical companies, and other wholesale purchasers of certain petroleum products and by-products, with significant business concentrated around the U.S. Gulf Coast refinery complex, which is a major hub for petroleum refining, natural gas gathering and processing, and support services for the exploration and production industry. The petroleum products and by-products the Partnership gathers, transports, stores and markets are produced primarily by major and independent oil and gas companies who often rely on third parties, such as the Partnership, for the transportation and disposition of these products.
    On December 28, 2021, Martin Resource Management Corporation indirectly acquired, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Martin Resource LLC, the remaining 49% voting interest (50% economic interest) in MMGP Holdings, LLC ("Holdings"), which is the sole member of Martin Midstream GP LLC ("MMGP"), the general partner of the Partnership. As a result, Martin Resource Management Corporation indirectly owns 100% of MMGP. On November 23, 2021, MMGP contributed to the Partnership all of the outstanding incentive distribution rights for no consideration, whereupon the incentive distribution rights were cancelled and cease to exist.
