These forward-looking statements are identified as any statement that does not relate strictly to historical or current facts. When used in this Quarterly Report, words such as anticipate, believe, could, estimate, expect, forecast, goal, intend, may, plan, project, will, and similar expressions and statements regarding our plans and objectives for future operations, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Although we and our general partner believe that the expectations on which such forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, neither we nor our general partner can give assurances that such expectations will prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks, uncertainties and assumptions. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, projected or expected. Among the key risk factors that may impact our consolidated financial position and results of operations are:
· the prices for crude oil, natural gas liquids, refined products, ethanol, and biodiesel;

· the general level of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids production;
· the general level of demand for crude oil, natural gas liquids, refined products, ethanol, and biodiesel;
· the availability of supply of crude oil, natural gas liquids, refined products, ethanol, and biodiesel;
· the level of crude oil and natural gas drilling and production in producing areas in which we have water treatment and disposal facilities;
· the prices of propane and distillates relative to the prices of alternative and competing fuels;
· the price of gasoline relative to the price of corn, which impacts the price of ethanol;
· the ability to obtain adequate supplies of products in the event of an interruption in supply or transportation and the availability of capacity to transport products to market areas;
· actions taken by foreign oil and gas producing nations;
· the political and economic stability of petroleum producing nations;
· the effect of weather conditions on supply and demand for crude oil, natural gas liquids, refined products, ethanol, and biodiesel;
· the effect of natural disasters, lightning strikes, or other significant weather events;
· availability of local, intrastate and interstate transportation infrastructure, including with respect to our truck, railcar, and barge transportation services;
· availability, price, and marketing of competing fuels;
· the impact of energy conservation efforts on product demand;
· energy efficiencies and technological trends;
· governmental regulation and taxation;
· the impact of legislative and regulatory actions on hydraulic fracturing and on the treatment of flowback and produced water;
· hazards or operating risks incidental to the transporting and distributing of petroleum products that may not be fully covered by insurance;
· the maturity of the crude oil, natural gas liquids, and refined products industries and competition from other marketers;
· loss of key personnel;
· the ability to hire drivers;
· the ability to renew contracts with key customers;
· the ability to maintain or increase the margins we realize for our terminal, barging, trucking, water disposal, recycling, and discharge services;
· the ability to renew leases for our leased equipment and storage facilities;
· the nonpayment or nonperformance by our counterparties;
· the availability and cost of capital and our ability to access certain capital sources;
· a deterioration of the credit and capital markets;
· the ability to successfully identify and consummate strategic acquisitions, and integrate acquired assets and businesses;
· changes in the volume of crude oil recovered during the wastewater treatment process;
· changes in the financial condition and results of operations of entities in which we own noncontrolling equity interests;
· changes in laws and regulations to which we are subject, including tax, environmental, transportation and employment regulations, or new interpretations by regulatory agencies concerning such laws and regulations and the impact of such laws and regulations (now existing or in the future) on our business operations;
· the costs and effects of legal and administrative proceedings;
· any reduction or the elimination of the federal Renewable Fuel Standard; and
· changes in the jurisdictional characteristics of, or the applicable regulatory policies with respect to, our pipeline assets.

NGL Energy Partners LP (we, us, our, or the Partnership) is a Delaware limited partnership. NGL Energy Holdings LLC serves as our general partner. At June 30, 2015, our operations include:
· Our crude oil logistics segment, the assets of which include owned and leased crude oil storage terminals, owned and leased pipeline injection stations, a fleet of owned trucks and trailers, a fleet of owned and leased railcars, a fleet of owned and leased barges and towboats, and a 50% interest in a crude oil pipeline. Our crude oil logistics segment purchases crude oil from producers and transports it for resale at owned and leased pipeline injection stations, storage terminals, barge loading facilities, rail facilities, refineries, and other trade hubs.
· Our water solutions segment, the assets of which include water treatment and disposal facilities. Our water solutions segment generates revenues from the treatment and disposal of wastewater generated from crude oil and natural gas production, from the sale of recycled water and recovered hydrocarbons, and from the disposal of solids such as tank bottoms and drilling fluids.
· Our liquids segment, which supplies natural gas liquids to retailers, wholesalers, refiners, and petrochemical plants throughout the United States and in Canada, and which provides natural gas liquids terminaling and storage services through its 21 owned terminals throughout the United States and its salt dome storage facility in Utah and railcar transportation services through its fleet of leased railcars. Our liquids segment purchases propane, butane, and other products from refiners, processing plants, producers, and other parties, and sells the products to retailers, refiners, petrochemical plants, and other participants in the wholesale markets.
· Our retail propane segment, which sells propane, distillates, and equipment and supplies to end users consisting of residential, agricultural, commercial, and industrial customers and to certain resellers in 25 states and the District of Columbia.
· Our refined products and renewables segment, which conducts gasoline, diesel, ethanol, and biodiesel marketing operations. We also own the 2.0% general partner interest and a 19.6% limited partner interest in TransMontaigne Partners L.P. (TLP), which conducts refined products terminaling operations.
Note 2Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim consolidated financial information in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our controlled subsidiaries. Investments that we do not have the ability to exercise control of, but do have the ability to exercise significant influence over, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. All significant intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2015 is derived from audited financial statements.
We have made certain reclassifications to prior period financial statements to conform to classification methods used in fiscal year 2016. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported amounts of equity or net income. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments that we consider necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items, unless otherwise disclosed herein. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and notes required by GAAP for complete annual consolidated financial statements. However, we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 included in our Annual Report on Form 10K (Annual Report). Due to the seasonal nature of our liquids and retail propane operations and other factors, the results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future periods or for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2016.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the period.
Critical estimates we make in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements include determining the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations; the collectability of accounts receivable; the recoverability of inventories; useful lives and recoverability of property, plant and equipment and amortizable intangible assets; the impairment of goodwill; the fair value of asset retirement obligations; the value of equity-based compensation; and accruals for various commitments and contingencies, among others. Although we believe these estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Significant Accounting Policies
Our significant accounting policies are consistent with those disclosed in Note 2 of our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report.
Fair Value Measurements
We apply fair value measurements to certain assets and liabilities, principally our commodity derivative instruments and assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is based upon assumptions that market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and risks inherent in valuation techniques and inputs to valuations. This includes not only the credit standing of counterparties and credit enhancements but also the impact of our own nonperformance risk on our liabilities. Fair value measurements assume that the transaction occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability (the market for which the reporting entity would be able to maximize the amount received or minimize the amount paid). We evaluate the need for credit adjustments to our derivative instrument fair values in accordance with the requirements noted above. Such adjustments were not material to the fair values of our derivative instruments.
We use the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels:
· Level 1Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that we have the ability to access at the measurement date.
· Level 2Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, and inputs that are derived from observable market data by correlation or other means. Instruments categorized in Level 2 include non-exchange traded derivatives such as over-the-counter commodity price swap and option contracts. We determine the fair value of all of our derivative financial instruments utilizing pricing models for significantly similar instruments. Inputs to the pricing models include publicly available prices and forward curves generated from a compilation of data gathered from third parties.
· Level 3Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability including situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable data (Level 3). In some cases, the inputs used to measure fair value might fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. The lowest level input that is significant to a fair value measurement determines the applicable level in the fair value hierarchy. Assessing the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, considering factors specific to the asset or liability.
Revenue Recognition
We record revenues from product sales at the time title to the product transfers to the purchaser, which typically occurs upon receipt of the product by the purchaser. We record terminaling, transportation, storage, and service revenues at the time the service is

performed, and we record tank and other rentals over the term of the lease. Pursuant to terminaling service agreements with certain of our throughput customers, we are entitled to the volume of product gained resulting from differences in the measurement of product volumes received and distributed at our terminaling facilities. Such measurement differentials occur as the result of the inherent variances in measurement devices and methodology. We recognize as revenue the net proceeds from the sale of the product gained. Revenues for our water solutions segment are recognized when we take delivery of the wastewater at our treatment and disposal facilities.
We report taxes collected from customers and remitted to taxing authorities, such as sales and use taxes, on a net basis. Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling costs are included in revenues in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
We enter into certain contracts whereby we agree to purchase product from a counterparty and sell the same volume of product to the same counterparty at a different location or time. When such agreements are entered into concurrently and are entered into in contemplation of each other, we record the revenues for these transactions net of cost of sales.
Revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2015 include $1.5 million associated with the amortization of a liability recorded in the acquisition accounting for an acquired business related to certain out-of-market revenue contracts.

Cash flows from settlements of commodity derivative instruments are classified as cash flows from investing activities in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, and adjustments to the fair value of commodity derivative instruments are included in the reconciliation of net loss to net cash provided by operating activities.
Inventories
We value our inventories at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using either the weighted-average cost or the first in, first out (FIFO) methods, including the cost of transportation and storage. Market is determined based on estimated replacement cost using prices at the end of the reporting period. In performing this analysis, we consider fixed-price forward commitments and the opportunity to transfer propane inventory from our wholesale liquids business to our retail propane business to sell the inventory in retail markets.

Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
In December 2013, as part of our acquisition of Gavilon, LLC (Gavilon Energy), we acquired a 50% interest in Glass Mountain Pipeline, LLC (Glass Mountain) and an interest in a limited liability company that owns an ethanol production facility in the Midwest. In June 2014, we acquired an interest in a limited liability company that operates a water supply company in the DJ Basin. On July 1, 2014, as part of our acquisition of TransMontaigne Inc. (TransMontaigne), we acquired the 2.0% general partner interest and a 19.7% limited partner interest in TLP, which owns a 42.5% interest in Battleground Oil Specialty Terminal Company LLC (BOSTCO) and a 50% interest in Frontera Brownsville LLC (Frontera), which are entities that own refined products storage facilities. We also own a 50% interest in a limited liability company that operates a retail propane business.
We account for these investments using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, we do not report the individual assets and liabilities of these entities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets; instead, our ownership interests are reported within investments in unconsolidated entities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Under the equity method, the investment is recorded at acquisition cost, increased by our proportionate share of any earnings and additional capital contributions and decreased by our proportionate share of any losses, distributions paid, and amortization of any excess investment. Excess investment is the amount by which our total investment exceeds our proportionate share of the historical net book value of the net assets of the investee.

Noncontrolling Interests
We have certain consolidated subsidiaries in which outside parties own interests. The noncontrolling interest shown in our condensed consolidated financial statements represents the other owners interests in these entities.
On July 1, 2014, as part of our acquisition of TransMontaigne, we acquired a 19.7% limited partner interest in TLP. We have attributed net earnings allocable to TLPs limited partners to the controlling and noncontrolling interests based on the relative ownership interests in TLP as well as including certain adjustments related to our acquisition accounting. Earnings allocable to TLPs limited partners are net of the earnings allocable to TLPs general partner interest. The earnings allocable to TLPs general partner

interest include the distributions of available cash (as defined by TLPs partnership agreement) attributable to the period to TLPs general partner interest and incentive distribution rights, net of adjustments for TLPs general partners share of undistributed earnings. Undistributed earnings are allocated to TLPs limited partners and TLPs general partner interest based on their respective sharing of earnings or losses specified in TLPs partnership agreement, which is based on their ownership percentages of 98% and 2%, respectively.
Business Combination Measurement Period
We record the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination at their acquisition date fair values. Pursuant to GAAP, an entity is allowed a reasonable period of time (not to exceed one year) to obtain the information necessary to identify and measure the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. As described in Note 4, certain of our acquisitions during the year ended March 31, 2015 are still within this measurement period, and as a result, the acquisition date fair values we have recorded for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are subject to change. Also as described in Note 4, we made certain adjustments during the three months ended June 30, 2015 to our estimates of the acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations that occurred during the year ended March 31, 2015.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 201511, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. ASU No. 201511 requires that inventory within the scope of the guidance be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The ASU is effective for the Partnership beginning April 1, 2017, although early adoption is permitted. We are in the process of assessing the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 201503, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. ASU No. 201503 requires that debt issuance costs (excluding costs associated with revolving debt arrangements) be presented in the balance sheet as a reduction to the carrying amount of the debt. We plan to adopt this ASU effective March 31, 2016, at which time we will begin presenting debt issuance costs as a reduction to long-term debt, rather than as an intangible asset. The ASU requires retrospective application for all prior periods presented.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 201409, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU No. 201409 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP. The core principle of this ASU is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. The ASU is effective for the Partnership beginning April 1, 2018, and allows for both full retrospective and modified retrospective (with cumulative effect) methods of adoption. We are in the process of determining the method of adoption and assessing the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.

(2) All outstanding subordinated units converted to common units in August 2014. Since the subordinated units did not share in the distribution of cash generated subsequent to June 30, 2014, we did not allocate any income or loss subsequent to that date to the subordinated unitholders. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, 5,919,346 subordinated units were outstanding. The loss per subordinated unit was ($0.68) for the three months ended June 30, 2014.

Water Solutions Facilities
As described below, we are party to certain development agreements that provide us a right to purchase water solutions facilities developed by the other party to the agreements. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, we purchased six water treatment and disposal facilities under these development agreements. On a combined basis, we paid $59.3 million of cash and issued 386,383 common units, valued at $11.4 million, in exchange for these facilities.
We are in the process of identifying and determining the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in these business combinations, and as a result, the estimates of fair value at June 30, 2015 are subject to change. We expect to complete this process prior to finalizing our financial statements for the year ending March 31, 2016. We have preliminarily estimated the fair values of the assets acquired (and useful lives) and liabilities assumed as follows (in thousands):

Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration paid for the acquired business over the fair value of the individual assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed. Goodwill primarily represents the value of synergies between the acquired business and the Partnership and the opportunity to use the acquired business as a platform for growth. We estimate that all of the goodwill will be deductible for federal income tax purposes.
The operations of these water treatment and disposal facilities have been included in our condensed consolidated statement of operations since their acquisition dates. Our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2015 includes revenues of $1.0 million and an operating loss of $0.5 million that were generated by the operations of these facilities after we acquired them.
Retail Propane Acquisition
During the three months ended June 30, 2015, we completed an acquisition of a retail propane business that operates in the northeastern United States and paid $4.6 million of cash to acquire these assets and operations. The agreement for this acquisition contemplates post-closing payments for certain working capital items. We are in the process of identifying and determining the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in this business combination, and as a result, the estimates of fair value at June 30, 2015 are subject to change. We expect to complete this process prior to finalizing our financial statements for the three months ended December 31, 2015. The operations of this retail propane business have been included in our condensed consolidated statement of operations since its acquisition date. Our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2015 includes revenues of $0.3 million and operating income of $0.1 million that were generated by the operations of this business after we acquired them.

Natural Gas Liquids Storage Acquisition
In February 2015, we acquired Sawtooth NGL Caverns, LLC (Sawtooth), which owns a natural gas liquids salt dome storage facility in Utah with rail and truck access to western United States markets and entered into a construction agreement to expand the storage capacity of the facility. We paid $97.6 million of cash, net of cash acquired, and issued 7,396,973 common units, valued at $218.5 million, in exchange for these assets and operations. The agreement for this acquisition contemplates post-closing payments for certain working capital items. We are in the process of identifying and determining the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in this business combination, and as a result, the estimates of fair value at June 30, 2015 are subject to change.

Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration paid for the acquired business over the fair value of the individual assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed. Goodwill primarily represents the value of synergies between the acquired business and the Partnership, the opportunity to use the acquired business as a platform for growth, and the acquired assembled workforce. We estimate that all of the goodwill will be deductible for federal income tax purposes.
We estimated the value of the customer relationship intangible asset using the income approach, which uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present amount (discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts.
The acquisition method of accounting requires that executory contracts with unfavorable terms relative to current market conditions at the acquisition date be recorded as assets or liabilities in the acquisition accounting. Since certain natural gas liquids storage lease commitments were at unfavorable terms relative to acquisition-date market conditions, we recorded a liability of $12.8 million related to these lease commitments in the acquisition accounting, and we amortized $1.5 million of this balance as an

Bakken Water Solutions Facilities
On November 21, 2014, we completed the acquisition of two saltwater disposal facilities in the Bakken shale play in North Dakota for $34.6 million of cash. We are in the process of identifying and determining the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in this business combination, and as a result, the estimates of fair value at June 30, 2015 are subject to change. We expect to complete this process prior to finalizing our financial statements for the three months ending September 30, 2015. We have preliminarily estimated the fair values of the assets acquired (and useful lives) and liabilities assumed as follows:

TransMontaigne Inc.
On July 1, 2014, we acquired TransMontaigne for $200.3 million of cash, net of cash acquired (including $174.1 million paid at closing and $26.2 million paid upon completion of the working capital settlement). As part of this transaction, we also purchased $380.4 million of inventory from the previous owner of TransMontaigne (including $346.9 million paid at closing and $33.5 million subsequently paid as the working capital settlement process progressed). The operations of TransMontaigne include the marketing of refined products. As part of this transaction, we acquired the 2.0% general partner interest, the incentive distribution rights, a 19.7% limited partner interest in TLP, and assumed certain terminaling service agreements with TLP from an affiliate of the previous owner of TransMontaigne.

The fair value of the noncontrolling interests was calculated by multiplying the closing price of TLPs common units on the acquisition date by the number of TLP common units held by parties other than us, adjusted for a lack-of-control discount.
Water Solutions Facilities
As described above, we are party to certain development agreements that provide us a right to purchase water solutions facilities developed by the other party to the agreements. During the year ended March 31, 2015, we purchased 16 water treatment and disposal facilities under these development agreements over the course of the year. We also purchased a 75% interest in one additional water treatment and disposal facility in July 2014 from a different seller. On a combined basis, we paid $190.0 million of cash and issued 1,322,032 common units, valued at $37.8 million, in exchange for these 17 facilities.
During the three months ended June 30, 2015, we completed the acquisition accounting for 12 of these water treatment and disposal facilities.

Retail Propane Acquisitions
During the year ended March 31, 2015, we completed eight acquisitions of retail propane businesses that operate in the northeastern, Midwest, and southern United States. On a combined basis, we paid $39.0 million of cash and issued 132,100 common units, valued at $3.7 million, in exchange for these assets and operations. The agreements for these acquisitions contemplate post-closing payments for certain working capital items.

Credit Agreement
We have entered into a credit agreement (as amended, the Credit Agreement) with a syndicate of banks. The Credit Agreement includes a revolving credit facility to fund working capital needs (the Working Capital Facility) and a revolving credit facility to fund acquisitions and expansion projects (the Expansion Capital Facility, and together with the Working Capital Facility, the Revolving Credit Facility). At June 30, 2015, our Revolving Credit Facility had a total capacity of $2.296 billion.
The Credit Agreement gives us the option to reallocate up to $400 million of capacity between the Working Capital Facility and the Expansion Capital Facility. In May 2015, we reallocated $125 million from the Working Capital Facility to the Expansion Capital Facility. The Expansion Capital Facility had a total capacity of $983.0 million for cash borrowings at June 30, 2015. At that date, we had outstanding borrowings of $890.0 million on the Expansion Capital Facility. The Working Capital Facility had a total capacity of $1.313 billion for cash borrowings and letters of credit at June 30, 2015. At that date, we had outstanding borrowings of $716.5 million and outstanding letters of credit of $129.9 million on the Working Capital Facility. Amounts outstanding for letters of credit are not recorded as long-term debt on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, but decrease our borrowing capacity under the Working Capital Facility. The capacity available under the Working Capital Facility may be limited by a borrowing base, as defined in the Credit Agreement, which is calculated based on the value of certain working capital items at any point in time.
The commitments under the Credit Agreement mature on November 5, 2018. We have the right to prepay outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement without incurring any penalties, and prepayments of principal may be required if we enter into certain transactions to sell assets or obtain new borrowings.
All borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at our option, at (i) an alternate base rate plus a margin of 0.50% to 1.50% per annum or (ii) an adjusted LIBOR rate plus a margin of 1.50% to 2.50% per annum. The applicable margin is determined
NGL ENERGY PARTNERS LP AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued
At June 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015, and for the
Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014
based on our consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement. At June 30, 2015, the majority of the borrowings under the Credit Agreement were LIBOR borrowings with an interest rate at June 30, 2015 of 2.19%, calculated as the LIBOR rate of 0.19% plus a margin of 2.0%. At June 30, 2015, the interest rate in effect on letters of credit was 2.25%. Commitment fees are charged at a rate ranging from 0.38% to 0.50% on any unused capacity.
The Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of our assets. The Credit Agreement specifies that our leverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement, cannot exceed 4.25 to 1 at any quarter end. The leverage coverage ratio in our Credit Agreement excludes TLPs debt. At June 30, 2015, our leverage ratio was approximately 3.3 to 1. The Credit Agreement also specifies that our interest coverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement, cannot be less than 2.75 to 1 at any quarter end. At June 30, 2015, our interest coverage ratio was approximately 5.9 to 1.
The Credit Agreement contains various customary representations, warranties, and additional covenants, including, without limitation, limitations on fundamental changes and limitations on indebtedness and liens. Our obligations under the Credit Agreement may be accelerated following certain events of default (subject to applicable cure periods), including, without limitation, (i) the failure to pay principal or interest when due, (ii) a breach by the Partnership or its subsidiaries of any material representation or warranty or any covenant made in the Credit Agreement, or (iii) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency.
At June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with the covenants under the Credit Agreement.
2019 Notes
On July 9, 2014, we issued $400.0 million of 5.125% Senior Notes Due 2019 (the 2019 Notes). We received net proceeds of $393.5 million, after the initial purchasers discount of $6.0 million and offering costs of $0.5 million.
The 2019 Notes mature on July 15, 2019. Interest is payable on January 15 and July 15 of each year. We have the right to redeem the 2019 Notes prior to the maturity date, although we would be required to pay a premium for early redemption.
The Partnership and NGL Energy Finance Corp. are co-issuers of the 2019 Notes, and the obligations under the 2019 Notes are guaranteed by certain of our existing and future restricted subsidiaries that incur or guarantee indebtedness under certain of our other indebtedness, including the Revolving Credit Facility. The indenture governing the 2019 Notes contains various customary covenants, including, without limitation, limitations on fundamental changes and limitations on indebtedness and liens. Our obligations under the indenture may be accelerated following certain events of default (subject to applicable cure periods), including, without limitation, (i) the failure to pay principal or interest when due, (ii) experiencing an event of default on certain other debt agreements, or (iii) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency.
At June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with the covenants under the indenture governing the 2019 Notes.
2021 Notes
On October 16, 2013, we issued $450.0 million of 6.875% Senior Notes Due 2021 (the 2021 Notes). We received net proceeds of $438.4 million, after the initial purchasers discount of $10.1 million and offering costs of $1.5 million.
The 2021 Notes mature on October 15, 2021. Interest is payable on April 15 and October 15 of each year. We have the right to redeem the 2021 Notes prior to the maturity date, although we would be required to pay a premium for early redemption.
The Partnership and NGL Energy Finance Corp. are co-issuers of the 2021 Notes, and the obligations under the 2021 Notes are guaranteed by certain of our existing and future restricted subsidiaries that incur or guarantee indebtedness under certain of our other indebtedness, including the Revolving Credit Facility. The indenture governing the 2021 Notes contains various customary covenants, including, without limitation, limitations on fundamental changes and limitations on indebtedness and liens. Our obligations under the indenture may be accelerated following certain events of default (subject to applicable cure periods), including, without limitation, (i) the failure to pay principal or interest when due, (ii) experiencing an event of default on certain other debt agreements, or (iii) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency.
At June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with the covenants under the indenture governing the 2021 Notes.

2022 Notes
On June 19, 2012, we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (as amended, the Note Purchase Agreement) whereby we issued $250.0 million of Senior Notes in a private placement (the 2022 Notes). The 2022 Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.65%, which is payable quarterly. The 2022 Notes are required to be repaid in semi-annual installments of $25.0 million beginning on December 19, 2017 and ending on the maturity date of June 19, 2022. We have the option to prepay outstanding principal, although we would incur a prepayment penalty. The 2022 Notes are secured by substantially all of our assets and rank equal in priority with borrowings under the Credit Agreement.
The Note Purchase Agreement contains various customary representations, warranties, and additional covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to (subject to certain exceptions): (i) incur additional debt, (ii) pay dividends and make other restricted payments, (iii) create or permit certain liens, (iv) create or permit restrictions on the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other distributions to us, (v) enter into transactions with affiliates, (vi) enter into sale and leaseback transactions and (vii) consolidate or merge or sell all or substantially all or any portion of our assets. In addition, the Note Purchase Agreement contains similar leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio requirements to those of our Credit Agreement described above.
The Note Purchase Agreement provides for customary events of default that include, among other things (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods): (i) failure to pay principal or interest when due, (ii) breach of certain covenants contained in the Note Purchase Agreement or the 2022 Notes, (iii) failure to pay certain other indebtedness or the acceleration of certain other indebtedness prior to maturity if the total amount of such indebtedness unpaid or accelerated exceeds $10.0 million, (iv) the rendering of a judgment for the payment of money in excess of $10.0 million, (v) the failure of the Note Purchase Agreement, the 2022 Notes, or the guarantees by the subsidiary guarantors to be in full force and effect in all material respects and (vi) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency. Generally, if an event of default occurs (subject to certain exceptions), the trustee or the holders of at least 51% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 2022 Notes may declare all of the 2022 Notes to be due and payable immediately.
At June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with the covenants under the Note Purchase Agreement.
TLP Credit Facility
TLP is party to a credit agreement with a syndicate of banks that provides for a revolving credit facility (the TLP Credit Facility). The TLP Credit Facility provides for a maximum borrowing line of credit equal to the lesser of (i) $400 million and (ii) 4.75 times Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the TLP Credit Facility). The terms of the TLP Credit Facility include covenants that restrict TLPs ability to make cash distributions, acquisitions and investments, including investments in joint ventures. TLP may make distributions of cash to the extent of TLPs available cash as defined in TLPs partnership agreement. TLP may make acquisitions and investments that meet the definition of permitted acquisitions, other investments which may not exceed 5% of consolidated net tangible assets, and additional future permitted JV investments up to $125 million, which may include additional investments in BOSTCO. The principal balance of loans and any accrued and unpaid interest are due and payable in full on the maturity date of July 31, 2018.
