GULF COAST STORAGE & EXPORT Our Unit Train Facility Benefits From WCS/Bakken Price Dislocations From Pipeline Constraints and We Will Benefit From Export Growth as Those Constraints are Resolved ★ Prior to March, the lack of long-haul pipeline capacity to transport WCS supply to Gulf Coast demand generated price differentials that supported unit train economics ❑ We have contract commitments for 30MBPD through April 2022 ❑ As Canadian production ramps back up, this price dislocation is expected to re-emerge and continue until Enbridge Line 3 is in service, now estimated to occur in 2021-22 ★ We can also handle light Bakken barrels with our rail facility, which may be an attractive alternative to DAPL MBPD Canadian Crude Oil Production Outlook Rail Opportunity 6,000 ★ We continue to work to assure our facility is connected to 5,000 the pipeline projects in progress to debottleneck shale 4,000 plays, the region, as well as the Midwest and beyond 3,000 ❑ In March 2019, Bayou Bridge began bringing WTI light, Bakken and Canadian barrels either for export or local 2,000 use 1,000 ❑ As soon as late-2021, Capline owners plan to reverse 0 its service to bring WTI, heavy Canadian and Bakken crude for use in regional refineries and export to other Production Pipeline Takeaway Capacity locations Source: ESAI 28
