Explanatory Note

On March 29, 2022, CAPL JKM Holdings LLC (“Holdings”), an indirect subsidiary of CrossAmerica Partners LP (the “Partnership”), issued and sold 12,500 newly created Series A Preferred Interests (“Series A Preferred Interests”) to each of (i) Dunne Manning JKM LLC (the “DM Investor”) and (ii) John B. Reilly, III and a trust affiliated with Mr. Reilly ("the JBR Trust" and together with Mr. Reilly, the “JBR Investor;” and the JBR Investor, together with the DM Investor, the "Investors" and, each, an “Investor”) at a price of $1,000 per Series A Preferred Interest, or an aggregate purchase price of $25 million in cash (the “Preferred Issuance”), in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Preferred Issuance was consummated pursuant to an Investment Agreement, entered into as of March 29, 2022 (the “Investment Agreement”), by and among Holdings and each Investor. Following the Preferred Issuance, the Partnership indirectly retains 100% of the common interests of Holdings, and Holdings remains a consolidated subsidiary of the Partnership.

 

The DM Investor is a newly formed limited liability company that is wholly owned and controlled by trusts and entities controlled by Joseph V. Topper, Jr., Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Partnership’s general partner (the “GP Board”). Trusts and entities controlled by Mr. Topper also own a significant portion of the Partnership’s common units and control the Partnership’s general partner. Mr. Reilly, Vice Chairman of the GP Board, is a trustee of the JBR Trust. In light of the relationships between the Investors and the Partnership, the Preferred Issuance was reviewed by, and received the approval and recommendation of, the conflicts committee of the board of directors of the Partnership’s general partner prior to execution of the Investment Agreement and consummation of the Preferred Issuance.

 

In connection with the Preferred Issuance, on March 29, 2022, LGP Operations LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership, each Investor and the Partnership entered into an amended and restated limited liability company agreement of Holdings (the “Holdings LLC Agreement”) to, among other things, set forth the rights, preferences, entitlements, restrictions and limitations of the Series A Preferred Interests. The Series A Preferred Interests have an initial liquidation preference of $1,000 per Series A Preferred Interest and are entitled to a preferred return at a rate of 9% per annum on the liquidation preference, compounded quarterly (the “preferred return”). Prior to October 16, 2026, the Series A Preferred Interests will not be entitled to receive distributions, but the preferred return instead will accumulate solely by way of an increase in the liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Interests. From and after October 16, 2026, the preferred return will be payable in cash, on a quarterly basis. The Series A Preferred Interests are subject to exchange (i) upon a liquidation or deemed liquidation event of Holdings, (ii) upon a change of control of the Partnership, (iii) from and after March 1, 2024, at the option of the Partnership and Holdings, and (iv) on March 31, 2029, if any Series A Preferred Interests remain outstanding on such date (each of (i) through (iv), an “exchange”). Upon an exchange of any Series A Preferred Interests, the holders thereof will surrender each such Series A Preferred Interest in exchange for an amount equal to the then-current liquidation preference of such Series A Preferred Interest plus any preferred return accrued and unpaid with respect to the period from and after October 16, 2026 (the “Exchange Price”). The Exchange Price will be payable in common units of the Partnership or, if any holder of Series A Preferred Interests so elects, in cash. Any common units of the Partnership issued upon any exchange in payment of the Exchange Price will be valued at an amount equal to $23.74 per common unit, which is equal to 115% of the volume weighted average price of a Partnership common unit on the New York Stock Exchange over the twenty trading-day period ending on March 28, 2022, the trading day immediately prior to the date of the Preferred Issuance.

 

The net proceeds received by Holdings in its sale of the Series A Preferred Interests are expected to be contributed to CAPL JKM Partners LLC, an indirect subsidiary of the Partnership, which in turn is expected to use such net proceeds to prepay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under its credit facility.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
