You can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” or “anticipates” or similar expressions that relate to our strategy, plans or intentions. All statements we make relating to our estimated and projected earnings, margins, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results or to our strategies, objectives, intentions, resources and expectations regarding future industry trends are forward-looking statements.statements made under the safe harbor provisions of the PSLRA except to the extent such statements relate to the operations of a partnership or limited liability company. In addition, we, through our senior management, from time to time make forward-looking public statements concerning our expected future operations and performance and other developments. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, and, therefore, our actual results may differ materially from those that we expected. We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based uponon many detailed assumptions.

This significant demand reduction has had an adverse impact on the balance sheet as a direct deductionCompany’s results of operations and liquidity position. Demand for these products, however, has started to recover throughout the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 in connection with the lifting or easing of restrictions by many governmental authorities in response to decreasing COVID-19 infection rates and the distribution of COVID-19 vaccines. The Company has adjusted throughput rates across its entire refining system to correlate with the gradual increases in demand, while still running below historic levels.
It is impossible to estimate the duration or significance of the financial impact that will result from the debt liability rather than as an asset. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluatingCOVID-19 pandemic. However, the extent of the impact of this new standardthe COVID-19 pandemic on its consolidatedthe Company’s business, financial statementscondition, results of operations and related disclosures.

Under ASU 2015-14, this guidance becomes effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Under ASU 2015-14, early adoption is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments" ("ASU 2015-16"), which requires (i) that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined, (ii) that the acquirer record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completedmajor processing units at the acquisition date, (iii)that an entity present separately onPaulsboro refinery, in order to operate the face oftwo refineries as one functional unit referred to as the income statement or disclose“East Coast Refining System”.

4. CURRENT EXPECTED CREDIT LOSSES

Credit Losses
The Company has exposure to credit losses primarily through its sales of refined products. The Company evaluates creditworthiness on an individual customer basis. The Company utilizes a financial review model for purposes of evaluating creditworthiness which is based on information from financial statements and credit reports. The financial review model enables the Company to assess the customer’s risk profile and determine credit limits on the basis of their financial strength, including but not limited to, their liquidity, leverage, debt serviceability, longevity and how they pay their bills. The Company may require security in the form of letters of credit or cash payments in advance of product delivery for certain customers that are deemed higher risk.
The Company’s payment terms on its trade receivables are relatively short, generally 30 days or less for a substantial majority of its refined products. As a result, the Company’s collection risk is mitigated to a certain extent by the fact that sales are collected in a relatively short period of time, allowing for the ability to reduce exposure on defaults if collection issues are identified. Notwithstanding, the Company reviews each customer’s credit risk profile at least annually or more frequently if warranted. Following the widespread market disruption that has resulted from the COVID-19 pandemic and related governmental responses, the Company has been performing ongoing credit reviews of its customers including monitoring for any negative credit events such as customer bankruptcy or insolvency events. As a result, the Company has adjusted payment terms or limited available trade credit for certain customers, as well as for customers within industries that are deemed to be at higher risk.
The Company performs a quarterly allowance for doubtful accounts analysis to assess whether an allowance needs to be recorded for any outstanding trade receivables. In estimating credit losses, management reviews accounts that are past due, have known disputes or have experienced any negative credit events that may result in future collectability issues. There was 0 allowance for doubtful accounts recorded as of June 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020.

8. MARKETABLE SECURITIES
The U.S Treasury securities purchased by the Company with the proceeds from the PBFX Offering are used as collateral to secure a three-year, $300,000 term loan facility entered into by PBFX (the "PBFX Term Loan"). PBFX anticipates holding the securities for an indefinite amount of time (the securities will be rolled over as they mature). As necessary and at the discretion of PBFX, these securities are expected to be liquidated and the proceeds used to fund future capital expenditures. While PBFX does not routinely sell marketable securities prior to their scheduled maturity dates, some of PBFX's investments may be held and restricted for the purpose of funding future capital expenditures and acquisitions, so these investments are classified as available-for-sale marketable securities as they may occasionally be sold prior to their scheduled maturity dates due to the unexpected timing of cash needs. The carrying value of these marketable securities approximates fair value and are measured using Level 1 inputs.

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT UNIT, PER UNIT AND BARREL DATA)

The maturities of the marketable securities range from one to three months and are classified on the balance sheet in non-current assets.
As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company held $234,249 and $234,930, respectively, in marketable securities. The gross unrecognized holding gains and losses as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were not material. The net realized gains or losses from the sale of marketable securities were immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the ordinary conduct of the Company’s business, the Company is from time to time subject to lawsuits, investigations and claims, including class action proceedings, mass tort actions, tort actions, environmental claims and employee-related matters. The outcome of these matters cannot always be predicted accurately, but the Company accrues liabilities for these matters if the Company has determined that it is probable a loss has been incurred and the loss can be reasonably estimated. For such ongoing matters for which we have not recorded a liability but losses are reasonably possible, we are unable to estimate a range of possible losses at this time due to various reasons that may include but are not limited to, matters being in an early stage and not fully developed through pleadings, discovery or court proceedings, number of potential claimants being unknown or uncertainty regarding a number of different factors underlying the potential claims. However, the ultimate resolution of one or more of these contingencies could result in an adverse outcome that may have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Environmental Matters
The Company’s refineries, pipelines and related operations are subject to extensive and frequently changing federal, state and local laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, those relating to the discharge of materials into the environment or that otherwise relate to the protection of the environment, waste management and the characteristics and the compositions of fuels. Compliance with existing and anticipated laws and regulations can increase the overall cost of operating the refineries, including remediation, operating costs and capital costs to construct, maintain and upgrade equipment and facilities.
These laws and permits raise potential exposure to future claims and lawsuits involving environmental and safety matters which could include soil and water contamination, air pollution, personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by substances which the Company manufactured, handled, used, released or disposed of, transported, or that relate to pre-existing conditions for which the Company has assumed responsibility. The Company believes that its current operations are in compliance with existing environmental and safety requirements. However, there have been and will continue to be ongoing discussions about environmental and safety matters between the Company and federal and state authorities, including notices of violations, citations and other enforcement actions, some of which have resulted or may result in changes to operating procedures and in capital expenditures. While it is often difficult to quantify future environmental or safety related expenditures, the Company anticipates that continuing capital investments and changes in operating procedures will be required for the foreseeable future to comply with existing and new requirements, as well as evolving interpretations and more strict enforcement of existing laws and regulations.
In connection with the Paulsboroacquisition of the Torrance refinery acquisition,and related logistics assets, the Company assumed certain pre-existing environmental liabilities totaling $110.6 million as of June 30, 2021 ($113.7 million as of December 31, 2020), related to certain environmental remediation obligations. The environmental liabilityobligations to address existing soil and groundwater contamination and monitoring activities and other clean-up activities, which reflects the current estimated cost of $10,714 recorded as of September 30, 2015 ($10,476 as of December 31, 2014) represents the present value of expected future costs discounted at a rate of 8%.remediation obligations. The current portion of the environmental liability is recorded in accruedAccrued expenses and the non-current portion is recorded in otherOther long-term liabilities. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, this liability is self-guaranteed by the Company.
In connection with the acquisition of the Delaware City assets, Valero Energy Corporation ("Valero") remains responsible for certain pre-acquisition environmental obligations up to $20,000 and the predecessor to Valero in ownership of the refinery retains other historical obligations.
In connection with the acquisition of the Delaware City assets and the Paulsboro refinery, the Company and Valero purchased ten year, $75,000 environmental insurance policies to insure against unknown environmental liabilities at each site. In connection with the Toledo refinery acquisition, Sunoco, Inc. (R&M) ("Sunoco") remains responsible for environmental remediation for conditions that existed on the closing date for twenty years from March 1, 2011, subject to certain limitations.
In 2010, New York State adopted a Low-Sulfur Heating Oil mandate that, beginning July 1, 2012, requires all heating oil sold in New York State to contain no more than 15 parts per million ("PPM") sulfur. Since July 1, 2012, other states in the Northeast market began requiring heating oil sold in their state to contain no more than 15 PPM sulfur. Currently, six Northeastern states require heating oil with 15 PPM or less sulfur. By July 1, 2016, two more states are expected to adopt this requirement and by July 1, 2018 most of the remaining Northeastern states (except for Pennsylvania and New Hampshire) will require heating oil with 15 PPM or less sulfur. All of the heating oil the Company currently produces meets these specifications. The mandate and other requirements do not currently have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The EPA issued the final Tier 3 Gasoline standards on March 3, 2014 under the Clean Air Act. This final rule establishes more stringent vehicle emission standards and further reduces the sulfur content of gasoline starting in January of 2017.  The new standard is set at 10 PPM sulfur in gasoline on an annual average basis starting January 1, 2017, with a credit trading program to provide compliance flexibility. The EPA responded to industry comments on the proposed rule and maintained the per gallon sulfur cap on gasoline at the existing 80 PPM cap. The standards set by the new rule are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The EPA was required to release the final annual standards for the Reformulated Fuels Standard ("RFS") for 2014 no later than Nov 29, 2013 and for 2015 no later than Nov 29, 2014. The EPA did not meet these requirements but did release proposed standards for 2014. The EPA did not finalize this proposal in 2014. However, in May 2015,

the EPA re-proposed annual standards for RFS 2 for 2014, and proposed new standards for 2015 and 2016 and biomass-based diesel volumes for 2017. The EPA is proposing volume requirementsaggregate environmental liability reflected in the annual standardsCompany’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets was $150.2 million and $153.7 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, of which while below the volumes originally set by Congress, would$137.9 million and $141.9 million, respectively, were classified as Other long-term liabilities. These liabilities include remediation and monitoring costs expected to be incurred over an extended period of time.

The EPA is also proposing to increase the required volume of biomass-based diesel in 2015, 2016, and 2017 while maintaining the opportunity for growth in other advanced biofuels. The EPA has solicited comments on the proposed annual standards and held public hearings on June 25, 2015. Final action on this proposal is expected by November 30, 2015. If they are issued, the final standards may have a material impact on the Company's cost of compliance with RFS 2.can be reasonably estimated.
On September 12, 2012, the EPA issued final amendments to the New Source Performance Standards ("NSPS") for petroleum refineries, including standards for emissions of nitrogen oxides from process heaters and work practice standards and monitoring requirements for flares.  The Company has evaluated the impact of the regulation and amended standards on its refinery operations and currently does not expect the cost to comply to be material.Contingent Consideration
In addition, the EPA published a Final Rule to the Clean Water Act ("CWA") Section 316(b) in August 2014 regarding cooling water intake structures which includes requirements for petroleum refineries. The purpose of this rule is to prevent fish from being trapped against cooling water intake screens (impingement) and to prevent fish from being drawn through cooling water systems (entrainment). Facilities will be required to implement Best Technology Available (BTA) as soon as possible, but state agencies have the discretion to establish implementation time lines. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of this regulation, and at this time does not anticipate it having a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Delaware City Rail Terminal and DCR West Rack are collocatedconnection with the Delaware City refinery,Martinez Acquisition, the Sale and are located in Delaware's coastal zone where certain activities are regulated under the Delaware Coastal Zone act. On June 14, 2013, two administrative appeals were filed by the Sierra Club and Delaware Audubon (collectively the "Appellants") regardingPurchase Agreement includes an air permit Delaware City Refining obtained to allow loading of crude oil onto barges. The appeals allege that both the loading of crude oil onto barges and the operation of the Delaware City Rail Terminal violate Delaware’s Coastal Zone Act. The first appeal is Number 2013-1 before the State Coastal Zone Industrial Control Board (the “CZ Board”), and the second appeal is before the Environmental Appeals Board (the "EAB") and appeals Secretary’s Order No. 2013-A-0020. The CZ Board held a hearing on the first appeal on July 16, 2013, and ruled in favor of Delaware City Refining and the State of Delaware and dismissed the Appellants’ appeal for lack of standing. The Appellants appealed that decision to the Delaware Superior Court, New Castle County, Case No. N13A-09-001 ALR, and Delaware City Refining and the State of Delaware filed cross-appeals. A hearing on the second appeal before the EAB, case no. 2013-06, was held on January 13, 2014, and the EAB ruled in favor of Delaware City Refining and the State and dismissed the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. The Appellants also filed a Notice of Appeal with the Superior Court appealing the EAB’s decision. On March 31, 2015 the Superior Court affirmed the decisions by both the CZ Board and the EAB stating they both lacked jurisdiction to rule on the Appellants' appeal. The Appellants appealed to the Delaware Supreme Court, and, on November 5, 2015, the Delaware Supreme Court affirmed the Superior Court decision.
The Company is also currently subject to certain other existing environmental claims and proceedings. The Company believes that there is only a remote possibility that future costs related to any of these other known contingent liability exposures would have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

PBF LLC Limited Liability Company Agreement

The holders of limited liability company interests in PBF LLC, including PBF Energy, generally have to include for purposes of calculating their U.S. federal, state and local income taxes their share of any taxable income of PBF LLC, regardless of whether such holders receive cash distributions from PBF LLC. PBF Energy ultimately may not receive cash distributions from PBF LLC equal to its share of such taxable income or even equal to the actual tax due with respect to that income. For example, PBF LLC is required to include in taxable income PBF LLC’s allocable share of PBFX’s taxable income and gains (such share to be determined pursuant to the partnership

agreement of PBFX), regardless of the amount of cash distributions received by PBF LLC from PBFX, and such taxable income and gains will flow-through to PBF Energy to the extent of its allocable share of the taxable income of PBF LLC. As a result, at certain times, the amount of cash otherwise ultimately available to PBF Energy on account of its indirect interest in PBFX may not be sufficient for PBF Energy to pay the amount of taxes it will owe on account of its indirect interests in PBFX.

Taxable income of PBF LLC generally is allocated to the holders of PBF LLC units (including PBF Energy) pro rata in accordance with their respective share of the net profits and net losses of PBF LLC. In general, PBF LLC is required to make periodic tax distributions to the members of PBF LLC, including PBF Energy, pro rata in accordance with their respective percentage interests for such period (as determined under the amended and restated limited liability company agreement of PBF LLC), subject to available cash and applicable law and contractual restrictions (including pursuant to our debt instruments) andearn-out provision based on certain assumptions. Generally, these tax distributionsearnings thresholds of the Martinez refinery. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company will make payments to the Seller based on future earnings at the Martinez refinery in excess of certain thresholds, as defined in the agreement, for a period of up to four years following the acquisition closing date. The Company recorded the acquisition date fair value of the earn-out provision as contingent consideration within “Other long-term liabilities” within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the Martinez Contingent Consideration are requiredrecorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The value of the Martinez Contingent Consideration was estimated to be $24.3 million as of June 30, 2021 and 0 as of December 31, 2020, representing anticipated future earn-out payments, if any.
In connection with the PBFX acquisition of CPI Operations LLC from Crown Point International LLC (“Crown Point”) in October 2018, the purchase and sale agreement between PBFX and Crown Point included an amount equalearn-out provision related to our estimatean existing commercial agreement with a third-party, based on the future results of certain acquired idled assets (the “PBFX Contingent Consideration”). PBFX and Crown Point agreed to share equally in the future operating profits of the taxable incomerestarted assets, as defined in the purchase and sale agreement, over a contractual term of PBF LLC forup to three years starting in 2019. The PBFX Contingent Consideration recorded was $1.7 million and $12.1 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The PBFX Contingent Consideration is included in “Accrued expenses” within the year multiplied by an assumed tax rate equal to the highest effective marginal combined U.S. federal, state and local income tax rate prescribed for an individual or corporate resident in New York, New York (taking into account the nondeductibility of certain expenses). If, with respect to any given calendar year, the aggregate periodic tax distributions were less than the actual taxable income of PBF LLC multiplied by the assumed tax rate, PBF LLC is required to make a “true up” tax distribution, no later than March 15 of the following year, equal to such difference, subject to the available cash and borrowings of PBF LLC. PBF LLC obtains funding to pay its tax distributions by causing PBF Holding to distribute cash to PBF LLC and from distributions it receives from PBFX.Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Tax Receivable Agreement

PBF Energy entered into a tax receivable agreement with the PBF LLC Series A and PBF LLC Series B Unit holdersunitholders (the “Tax Receivable Agreement”) that provides for the payment by PBF Energy to such persons of an amount equal to 85% of the amount of the benefits, if any, that PBF Energy is deemed to realize as a result of (i) increases in tax basis, as described below, and (ii) certain other tax benefits related to entering into the Tax Receivable Agreement, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement. For purposes of the Tax Receivable Agreement, the benefits deemed realized by PBF Energy will be computed by comparing the actual income tax liability of PBF Energy (calculated with certain assumptions) to the amount of such taxes that PBF Energy would have been required to pay had there been no increase to the tax basis of the assets of PBF LLC as a result of purchases or exchanges of PBF LLC Series A Units for shares of PBF Energy’sEnergy Class A common stock and had PBF Energy not entered into the Tax Receivable Agreement. The term of the Tax Receivable Agreement will continue until all such tax benefits have been utilized or expired unless: (i) PBF Energy exercises its right to terminate the Tax Receivable Agreement, (ii) PBF Energy breaches any of its material obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement or (iii) certain changes of control occur, in which case all obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement will generally be accelerated and due as calculated under certain assumptions.

The payment obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement are obligations of PBF Energy and not of PBF LLC.LLC, PBF Holding or PBFX. In general, PBF Energy expects to obtain funding for these annual payments from PBF LLC, primarily through tax distributions, which PBF LLC makes on a pro-rata basis to its owners. Such owners include PBF Energy, which holds a 94.4%99.2% interest in PBF LLC as of SeptemberJune 30, 2015 (89.9%2021 (99.2% as of December 31, 2014)2020). PBF LLC generally obtains funding to pay its tax distributions by causing PBF Holding to distribute cash to PBF LLC and from distributions it receives from PBFX.

11. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONSThe Company did not record a Tax Receivable Agreement liability as of June 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020, reflecting the estimate of the undiscounted amounts that PBF Energy expects to pay under the agreement, net of the impact of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance recognized in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, Income Taxes. As future taxable income is recognized, increases in our Tax Receivable Agreement liability may be necessary in conjunction with the remeasurement of deferred tax assets. Refer to “Note 15 - Income Taxes” for more details.
With respect
10. LEASES
The Company leases office space, office equipment, refinery support facilities and equipment, railcars and other logistics assets primarily under non-cancelable operating leases, with terms typically ranging from one to dividendstwenty years, subject to certain renewal options as applicable. The Company considers those renewal or termination options that are reasonably certain to be exercised in the determination of the lease term and distributions paidinitial measurement of lease liabilities and right of use assets. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Interest expense for finance leases is incurred based on the carrying value of the lease liability. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet.
The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a finance or operating lease. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of the Company’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company must discount lease payments based on an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate.
For substantially all classes of underlying assets, the Company has elected the practical expedient not to separate lease and non-lease components, which allows for combining the components if certain criteria are met. For certain leases of refinery support facilities the Company accounts for the non-lease service component separately. There are no material residual value guarantees associated with any of the Company’s leases. There are no significant restrictions or covenants included in the Company’s lease agreements other than those that are customary in such arrangements. Certain of the Company’s leases, primarily for the Company’s commercial and logistics asset classes, include provisions for variable payments. These variable payments are typically determined based on a measure of throughput or actual days the asset has operated during the nine months ended Septembercontract term or another measure of usage and are not included in the initial measurement of lease liabilities and right of use assets.

The majority of the Company’s revenues are generated from the sale of refined petroleum products reported in the Refining segment. These revenues are largely based on the current spot (market) prices of the products sold, which represent consideration specifically allocable to the products being sold on a given day, and the Company recognizes those revenues upon delivery and transfer of title to the products to our customers. The time at which delivery and transfer of title occurs is the point when the Company’s control of the products is transferred to the Company’s customers and when its performance obligation to its customers is fulfilled. Delivery and transfer of title are specifically agreed to between the Company and customers within the contracts. The Refining segment also has contracts which contain fixed pricing, tiered pricing, minimum volume features with makeup periods, or other factors that have not materially been affected by ASC 606.

The Company’s Logistics segment revenues are generated by charging fees for crude oil and refined products terminaling, storage and pipeline services based on the greater of contractual minimum volume commitments, as applicable, or the delivery of actual volumes based on contractual rates applied to throughput or storage volumes. A majority of the Company’s logistics revenues are generated by intercompany transactions and are eliminated in consolidation.
14.Deferred Revenue
The Company records deferred revenue when cash payments are received or are due in advance of performance, including amounts which are refundable. Deferred revenue was $28.8 million and $47.2 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Fluctuations in the deferred revenue balance are primarily driven by the timing and extent of cash payments received or due in advance of satisfying the Company’s performance obligations.
The Company’s payment terms vary by type and location of customers and the products offered. The period between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant (i.e. generally within two months). For certain products or services and customer types, the Company requires payment before the products or services are delivered to the customer.

15. INCOME TAXES
PBF Energy is required to file federal and applicable state corporate income tax returns and recognize income taxes on its pre-tax income (loss), which to-date has consisted primarily of its share of PBF LLC’s pre-tax income (loss) (approximately 99.2% as of both June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020). PBF LLC is organized as a limited liability company and PBFX is an MLP, both of which are treated as “flow-through” entities for federal income tax purposes and therefore are not subject to income taxes apart from the income tax attributable to the 2 subsidiaries acquired in connection with the acquisition of Chalmette Refining and PBF Holding’s wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary, PBF Energy Limited, that are treated as C-Corporations for income tax purposes.
Valuation Allowance
Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit use of existing deferred tax assets. Negative evidence evaluated as part of this assessment includes cumulative losses incurred over a three-year period. Such objective evidence could limit PBF Energy’s ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as PBF Energy’s projections for future taxable income as market conditions, commodity prices and demand for refined petroleum products normalize.
On the basis of this evaluation, a valuation allowance was recorded to recognize only the portion of deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to be realized. The amount of the deferred tax assets considered realizable, however, could be adjusted if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced or increased or if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight is given to subjective evidence such as PBF Energy’s projections for future taxable income.

The valuation methods used to measure financial instruments at fair value are as follows:
Money market funds categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are measured at fair value based on quoted market prices and included within Cash and cash equivalents.
Marketable securities, consisting primarily of US Treasury securities, categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are measured at fair value based on quoted market prices.
Non-qualified pension plan assets categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are measured at fair value using a market approach based on published net asset values of mutual funds and included within Deferred charges and other assets, net.
The commodity contracts categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are measured at fair value based on quoted prices in an active market. The commodity contracts categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are measured at fair value using a market approach based upon future commodity prices for similar instruments quoted in active markets.
The derivatives included with inventory intermediation agreement obligations and the catalyst obligations are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and are measured at fair value using a market approach based upon commodity prices for similar instruments quoted in active markets.
Renewable energy credit and emissions obligations primarily represent our liability for the purchase of (i) biofuel credits (primarily RINs in the U.S.) needed to satisfy our obligation to blend biofuels into the products we produce and (ii) emission credits under the AB 32 and similar programs (collectively, the cap-and-trade systems). To the degree we are unable to blend biofuels (such as ethanol and biodiesel) at percentages required under the biofuel programs, we must purchase biofuel credits to comply with these programs. Under the cap-and-trade systems, we must purchase emission credits to comply with these systems. The liability for environmental credits is based on our deficit for such credits as of the balance sheet date, if any, after considering any credits acquired or under contract, and is equal to the product of the credits deficit and the market price of these credits as of the balance sheet date. The environmental credit obligations are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and are measured at fair value using a market approach based on quoted prices from an independent pricing service.
When applicable, commodity contracts categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy consist ofcommodity price swap contracts that relate to forecasted purchases of crude oil for which quoted forward market prices are not readily available due to market illiquidity. The forward prices used to value these swaps wereare derived using broker quotes, prices from other third partythird-party sources and other available market based data.
The derivatives included with inventory supply arrangementcontingent consideration obligations derivatives included with inventory intermediation agreement obligationsat June 30, 2021 and the catalyst lease obligationsDecember 31, 2020 are categorized in Level 23 of the fair value hierarchy and are estimated using discounted cash flow models based on management’s estimate of the future cash flows related to the earn-out periods.
Non-qualified pension plan assets are measured at fair value using a market approach based upon commodity priceson published net asset values of mutual funds as a practical expedient. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $20.9 million and $21.2 million, respectively, were included within Deferred charges and other assets, net for similar instruments quoted in active markets.these non-qualified pension plan assets.

17. DERIVATIVES
The Company uses derivative instruments to mitigate certain exposures to commodity price risk. The Company’s crude supply agreement containsCompany entered into the Inventory Intermediation Agreements that contain purchase obligations for certain volumes of crude oil, and other feedstocks. In addition, the Company entered into Inventory Intermediation Agreements commencing in July 2013 that contain purchase obligations for certain volumes of intermediates and refined products. The purchase obligations related to crude oil, feedstocks, intermediates and refined products under these agreements are derivative instruments that have been designated as fair value hedges in order to hedge the commodity price volatility of certain refinery inventory. The fair value of these purchase obligation derivatives is based on market prices of the underlying crude oil, intermediates and refined products. The level of activity for these derivatives is based on the level of operating inventories.

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2015,2021 and December 31, 2020, there were 238,3060 barrels of crude oil and feedstocks (662,579 barrels at December 31, 2014) outstanding under these derivative instruments designated as fair value hedges and no barrels (no barrels at December 31, 2014) outstanding under these derivative instruments not designated as hedges. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2015,2021, there were 3,130,7662,351,182 barrels of intermediates and refined products (3,106,325(2,604,736 barrels at December 31, 2014)2020) outstanding under these derivative instruments designated as fair value hedges and no barrels (no barrels at December 31, 2014) outstanding under these derivative instruments not designated as hedges.

Overview
We are one of the largest independent petroleum refiners and suppliers of unbranded transportation fuels, heating oil, petrochemical feedstocks, lubricants and other petroleum products in the United States. We sell our products throughout the Northeast, Midwest, Gulf Coast and MidwestWest Coast of the United States, as well as in other regions of the United States, Canada and Canada,Mexico and are able to ship products to other international destinations. We were formed in 2008 to pursue acquisitions of crude oil refineries and downstream assets in North America. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20152021, we ownedown and operated threeoperate six domestic oil refineries and related assets, which we acquired in 2010 and 2011. Ourassets. Based on the current configuration our refineries have a combined processing capacity, known as throughput, of approximately 540,0001,000,000 barrels per day ("bpd"(“bpd”), and a weighted-average Nelson Complexity Index of 11.3. On November 1, 201513.2 based on current operating conditions. The complexity and throughput capacity of our refineries are subject to change dependent upon configuration changes we closed onmake to respond to market conditions, as well as a result of investments made to improve our acquisitionfacilities and maintain compliance with environmental and governmental regulations. We operate in two reportable business segments: Refining and Logistics. Our six oil refineries are all engaged in the refining of crude oil and other feedstocks into petroleum products, and are aggregated into the ownership interests of Chalmette Refining L.L.C. ("Chalmette Refining"). See Business Developments for additional information.segment. PBFX operates certain logistics assets such as crude oil and refined petroleum products terminals, pipelines, and storage facilities, which are aggregated into the Logistics segment.
As of September 30, 2015, our threeOur six refineries are located in Toledo, Ohio, Delaware City, Delaware, and Paulsboro, New Jersey. Our Mid-Continent refinery atJersey, Toledo, processes light, sweet crude, has a throughput capacity of 170,000 bpdOhio, Chalmette, Louisiana, Torrance, California and a Nelson Complexity Index of 9.2. The majority of Toledo’s West Texas Intermediate ("WTI") based crude is delivered via pipelines that originate in both Canada and the United States. SinceMartinez, California. In 2020, we reconfigured our acquisition of Toledo in 2011, we have added additional truck and rail crude unloading capabilities that provide feedstock sourcing flexibility for the refinery and enables Toledo to run a more cost-advantaged crude slate. Our East Coast refineries at Delaware City and Paulsboro have a combinedrefineries, temporarily idling certain of our major processing units at the Paulsboro refinery, in order to operate the two refineries as one functional unit that we refer to as the “East Coast Refining System”.

Since our acquisitionAs a result of the Delaware City refinery, we expandedEast Coast Refining Reconfiguration, our Nelson Complexity Index and upgraded the existing on-site railroad infrastructure, including the expansion of the crude rail unloading facilities. Currently, crude delivered by rail to this facility is consumed at our Delaware City refinery. We also transport some of the crude delivered by rail from Delaware City via barge to our Paulsboro refinery or other third party destinations. In 2014 we completed a project to expand the Delaware City heavy crude rail unloading terminal capability at the refinery from 40,000 bpd to 80,000 bpd and added additional unloading spots to the dual-loop track light crude rail unloading facility, which has increased its unloading capability from 105,000 bpd to 130,000 bpd.

Business Developments
Recent significant business developments affecting the Companyus are discussed below.

COVID-19
Chalmette Acquisition
On November 1, 2015, the Company acquired from ExxonMobil Oil Corporation, Mobil Pipe Line Company and PDV Chalmette, L.L.C., the ownership interests of Chalmette Refining, which owns the Chalmette refinery and related logistics assets (collectively, the "Chalmette Acquisition"). The Chalmette refinery, located outside of New Orleans, Louisiana, is a 189,000 barrel per day, dual-train coking refinery with a Nelson Complexity of 12.7 and is capable of processing both light and heavy crude oil.
Chalmette Refining owns 100%outbreak of the MOEM Pipeline, providing accessCOVID-19 pandemic continues to the Empire Terminal, as well as the CAM Connection Pipeline, providing access to the Louisiana Offshore Oil Port facility through a third party pipeline. Chalmette Refining also owns 80% of each of the Collins Pipeline Companynegatively impact worldwide economic and T&M Terminal Company, both located in Collins, Mississippi, which provide a clean products outlet for the refinery to the Plantationcommercial activity and Colonial Pipelines. Also included in the acquisition are a marine terminal capable of importing waterborne feedstocks and loading or unloading finished products; a clean products truck rack which provides access to local markets; and a crude and product storage facility with approximately 7.5 million barrels of shell capacity.
financial markets. The aggregate purchase price for the Chalmette Acquisition was $322.0 million in cash, plus inventory and working capital of $233.1 million, which is subject to final valuation within ninety days of closing. The transaction was financed through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the Company’s existing revolving credit line. A determination of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets acquiredCOVID-19 pandemic and the liabilities assumedrelated governmental and consumer responses resulted in significant business and operational disruptions, including business and school closures, supply chain disruptions, travel restrictions, stay-at-home orders and limitations on the working capital at closing calculation is pendingavailability of workforces and has resulted in significantly lower global demand for refined petroleum and petrochemical products. We have seen the completion of an independent appraisal and other evaluations.
The Chalmette Acquisition provides the Company with a broader more diversified asset base and increases the number of operating refineries from threedemand for these products starting to four and the Company's combined crude oil throughput capacity from 540,000 bpd to approximately 730,000 bpd. The acquisition also provides the Company with a presence in the attractive Petroleum Administration for Defense Districts ("PADD") 3 market.

Pending Torrance Acquisition
On September 29, 2015, PBF Holding entered into a definitive Sale and Purchase Agreement (the “Torrance Sale and Purchase Agreement”) with ExxonMobil Oil Corporation and its subsidiary, Mobil Pacific Pipeline Company (together, the "Torrance Sellers"), to purchase the Torrance refinery, and related logistics assets (collectively, the "Torrance Acquisition"). The Torrance refinery, located on 750 acres in Torrance, California, is a high-conversion 155,000 barrel per day, delayed-coking refinery with a Nelson Complexity of 14.9. The facility is strategically positioned in Southern California with advantaged logistics connectivity that offers flexible raw material sourcing and product distribution opportunities primarily in the California, Las Vegas and Phoenix area

markets. Including the estimated contribution of the Chalmette refinery, the Torrance Acquisition will further increase the Company's total throughput capacity to approximately 900,000 bpd.
In addition to refining assets, the Torrance Acquisition includes a number of high-quality logistics assets including a sophisticated network of crude and products pipelines, product distribution terminals and refinery crude and product storage facilities. The most significant of the logistics assets is a 171-mile crude gathering and transportation system which delivers San Joaquin Valley crude oil directly from the field to the refinery. Additionally, included in the transaction are several pipelines which provide access to sources of crude oil including the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles,rebound as well as clean product outlets with a direct pipeline supplying jet fuel to the Los Angeles airport. The Torrance refinery also has crude and product storage facilities with approximately 8.6 million barrels of shell capacity.
The purchase price for the Torrance Acquisition is $537.5 million, plus inventory and working capital to be valued at closing. The purchase price is also subject to other customary purchase price adjustments. The Torrance Acquisition is expected to close in the second quarter of 2016, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Additionally, as a condition of closing, the Torrance refinery is to be restored to full working order with respect to the event that occurred on February 18, 2015 resulting in damage to the electrostatic precipitator and related systems, and shall have operated as required under the Torrance Sale and Purchase Agreement for a period of at least fifteen days after such restoration. We expect to finance the transaction with a combination of cash on hand, debt, including the proceeds from the issuance of the 7.0% Senior Secured Notes due 2023, and proceeds contributed to us in connection with PBF Energy's equity offering completed on October 13, 2015. In addition, PBF Energy has guaranteed all payment and performance obligations of PBF Holding that relate to or arise out of the Sale and Purchase Agreement related to the Torrance Acquisition. Following the expected completion of the Torrance Acquisition, our weighted average Nelson Complexity Index will increase to 12.2.

October 2015 Equity Offering
On October 13, 2015, PBF Energy completed a public offering of an aggregate of 11,500,000 shares of Class A common stock, including 1,500,000 shares of Class A common stock that was sold pursuant to the exercise of an over-allotment option, for net proceeds of $344.0 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses (the “October 2015 Equity Offering”). In conjunction with the October 2015 Equity Offering, PBF Energy purchased an aggregate of 11,500,000 PBF LLC Series C Units. We intend to use the proceeds to fund a portion of the purchase price for the Torrance Acquisition. However, subject to the timing of the closing of the Torrance Acquisition, we may use the net proceeds of the October 2015 Equity Offering to pay down indebtedness incurred to fund the Chalmette Acquisition (or for capital in lieu of indebtedness we might otherwise borrow).
As a result of the October 2015 Equity Offering, PBF Energy now owns 97,393,850 PBF LLC Series C Units and PBF Energy’s executive officers and directors and certain employees beneficially own 5,111,358 PBF LLC Series A Units,lifting or easing of governmental restrictions in response to decreasing COVID-19 infection rates and the holdersdistribution of PBF Energy’s issued and outstanding sharesCOVID-19 vaccines. Despite these signs of Class A common stock have 95.0%improvements, the resulting economic consequences of the voting power in PBF EnergyCOVID-19 pandemic remains uncertain and will depend on the members of PBF LLC other than PBF Energy through their holdings of Class B common stock have the remaining 5.0%ongoing severity, location and duration of the voting poweroutbreak, the effectiveness of the vaccine programs and other actions undertaken by national, regional and local governments and health officials to contain the virus or treat its effects, and how quickly and to what extent economic conditions improve and normal business and operating conditions resume.
We are actively responding to the impacts from these matters on our business. Starting in PBF Energy.late March 2020, we reduced the amount of crude oil processed at our refineries in response to the decreased demand for our products and we temporarily idled various units at certain of our refineries to optimize our production in light of prevailing market conditions. We have been operating our refineries at reduced rates, while constantly monitoring and adjusting our production to correlate to increases in product demand. Throughput across our refineries was higher in the three months ended June 2021 in comparison to the three months ended June 2020, reflecting gradual improvement in market conditions. We expect near-term throughput to be in the 845,000 to 905,000 barrel per day range for our refining system. Despite the measures we have taken, we have been, and likely will continue to be, adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic for the foreseeable future. We are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and can provide no assurance that measures taken to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic will be effective.

We continue to adjust our operational plans to the evolving market conditions and continue to monitor and maintain lower operating expenses through significant reductions in discretionary activities and third-party services. We successfully reconfigured our East Coast Refining System to maintain the most profitable elements of two refineries while reducing costs and improving our competitive position. Our overall market outlook for the second half of 2021 remains constructive, with continued gradual improvement in demand, and our full-year capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $400.0 million to $450.0 million. Should market conditions change from our current expectations, we expect that we will review our capital requirements and adjust as needed.
7.0% Senior Secured Notes due 2023Adoption of Rule 6-5
On November 24, 2015, PBF Holding completedJuly 21,2021, the offeringboard of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 7.0% Senior Secured Notes due 2023.Bay Area Air Quality Management District (“BAAQMD”) voted to adopt Proposed Amended Rule (“PAR”) 6-5 requiring compliance with more stringent standards for particulate emissions from Fluid Catalytic Cracking (“FCC”) units at refineries in the Bay Area by 2026.

Factors Affecting Comparability Between Periods
Our results have been affected by the following events, the understanding of which must be understoodwill aid in order to assessassessing the comparability of our period to period financial performance and financial condition.

COVID-19 and Market Developments
Initial Public Offering of PBFX
On May 14, 2014, PBFX completed its initial public offering (the “PBFX Offering”) of 15,812,500 common units, including 2,062,500 common units issued upon exerciseThe impact of the over-allotment option thatunprecedented global health and economic crisis sparked by the COVID-19 pandemic was grantedamplified late in the quarter ended March 31, 2020 due to movements made by the underwriters, atworld’s largest oil producers to increase market share. This created simultaneous shocks in oil supply and demand resulting in an economic challenge to our industry which has not occurred since our formation. This combination resulted in significant demand reduction for our refined products and atypical volatility in oil commodity prices. In 2021, as a price to the public of $23.00 per unit. On September 30, 2014, PBF LLC completed a transaction to contribute to PBFX the Delaware City heavy crude unloading rack ("DCR West Rack") for total consideration of $150.0 million, consisting of $135.0 million of cash and $15.0 million of PBFX common units, or 589,536 common units (the "DCR West Rack Acquisition").

PBF LLC also owns all of the incentive distribution rights and indirectly owns a non-economic general partner interest in PBFX through its wholly-owned subsidiary, PBF Logistics GP LLC (“PBF GP”), the general partner of PBFX. During the subordination period (as set forth in the partnership agreement of PBFX) holders of the subordinated units are not entitled to receive any distribution of available cash untilCOVID-19 vaccines, the common units have received the minimum quarterly distribution plus any arrearages in the payment of the minimum quarterly distribution from prior quarters. If PBFX does not pay distributions on the subordinated units, the subordinated units will not accrue arrearagesdemand for those unpaid distributions. Each subordinated unit will convert into one common unit at the end of the subordination period.
PBFX is a fee-based, growth-oriented, Delaware master limited partnership formed by PBF Energy to own or lease, operate, develop and acquire crude oil and refined petroleum products terminals, pipelines, storage facilitieshas started to recover, consequently improving our refining margins in comparison to the prior year. While our results for the three and similar logistics assets. PBFX engagessix months ended June 30, 2021 continue to be impacted by lower demand for refined products, we have experienced gradual improvements when compared to the same period in 2020 and favorable impacts on our revenues, cost of products sold, operating income and liquidity. Although we currently continue to operate our refineries at reduced rates, throughput rates across our refining system have increased in the receiving, handling and transferringcurrent year to correlate with the gradual increase in demand.
East Coast Refining Reconfiguration
On December 31, 2020, we completed the East Coast Refining Reconfiguration. As part of crude oil and the receipt, storage and deliveryreconfiguration process, we idled certain of crude oil, refined products and intermediates. PBFX’s assets consist of a light crude oil rail unloading terminalour major processing units at the Delaware City refinery that also services the Paulsboro refinery, (which we referresulting in lower overall throughput and inventory levels in addition to as the “Delaware City Rail Terminal”), a crude oil truck unloading terminal at the Toledo refinery (which we refer to as the “Toledo Truck Terminal”), the DCR West Rack, the Toledo Storage Facilitydecreases in capital and the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack. All of PBFX’s revenueoperating costs. Based on this reconfiguration, our East Coast throughput capacity is derived from long-term, fee-based commercial agreements with subsidiaries of PBF LLC, which include minimum volume commitments, for receiving, handling, transferring and storing crude oil and refined products. These transactions are eliminated by PBF LLC in consolidation.approximately 285,000 barrels per day.
Secondary Offerings
On February 6, 2015, PBF Energy completed a public offering of 3,804,653 shares of Class A common stock in a secondary offering (the "February 2015 secondary offering"). All of the shares in the February 2015 secondary offering were sold by funds affiliated with Blackstone Group L.P., or Blackstone, and First Reserve Management, L.P., or First Reserve. In connection with the February 2015 secondary offering, Blackstone and First Reserve exchanged all of their remaining PBF LLC Series A Units for an equivalent number of shares of Class A common stock of PBF Energy, and as a result, Blackstone and First Reserve no longer hold any PBF LLC Series A Units or shares of PBF Energy's Class A common stock. The holders of PBF LLC Series B Units, which include certain executive officers of PBF Energy and others, received a portion of the proceeds of the sale of the

early termination rights.Martinez, 30 miles northeast of San Francisco, California. The refinery is a high-conversion 157,000 bpd, dual-coking facility with a Nelson Complexity Index of 16.1, making it one of the most complex refineries in the United States. The facility is strategically positioned in Northern California and provides for operating and commercial synergies with the Torrance refinery located in Southern California. In addition to refining assets, the A&R Intermediation Agreements include one-year renewal clauses by mutual consentMartinez Acquisition includes a number of both parties.high-quality onsite logistics assets including a deep-water marine facility, product distribution terminals and refinery crude and product storage facilities with approximately 8.8 million barrels of shell capacity.

Sale of Hydrogen Plants
On April 17, 2020, we closed on the sale of five hydrogen plants to Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. (“Air Products”) producedin a sale-leaseback transaction for gross cash proceeds of $530.0 million and recognized a gain of $471.1 million. In connection with the sale, we entered into a transition services agreement, which was followed by the Paulsboroexecution of long-term supply agreements in August 2020, through which Air Products will exclusively supply hydrogen, steam, carbon dioxide and other products to the Martinez, Torrance and Delaware City refineries (the "Refineries"), respectively, and delivered into tanks at the Refineries. Furthermore, J. Aron agrees to sell the Products back to Paulsboro refinery and Delaware City refinery as the Products are discharged out of the Refineries' tanks. J. Aron has the right to store the Products purchased in tanks under the A&R Intermediation Agreements and will retain these storage rights for thea term of the agreements. PBF Holding will continue to market and sell the Products independently to third parties.fifteen years.
Crude Oil Acquisition Agreement Termination
Effective July 31, 2014, PBF Holding terminated the Amended and Restated Crude Oil Acquisition Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2012 as amended (the "Toledo Crude Oil Acquisition Agreement") with Morgan Stanley Capital Group, Inc. ("MSCG").  Under the terms of the Toledo Crude Oil Acquisition Agreement, we previously acquired substantially all of our crude oil for our subsidiary's Toledo refinery from MSCG through delivery at various interstate pipeline locations. No early termination penalties were incurred by us as a result of the termination. We began sourcing our own crude oil needs for Toledo upon termination.

Results of Operations
The tables below reflect our consolidated financial and operating highlights for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20152021 and 20142020 (amounts in thousands)millions, except per share data). Differences between the results of operations of PBF Energy and PBF LLC primarily pertain to income taxes, interest expense and noncontrolling interest as shown below. Earnings per share information applies only to the financial results of PBF Energy. We operate in two reportable business segments: Refining and Logistics. Our three oil refineries, excluding the assets owned by PBFX, are all engaged in the refining of crude oil and other feedstocks into petroleum products, and are aggregated into the Refining segment. PBFX is a publicly traded master limited partnershippublicly-traded MLP that operates logisticalcertain logistics assets such as crude oil and refined petroleum products terminals, pipelines and storage facilities. PBFX'sPBFX’s operations are aggregated into the Logistics segment. Prior to the PBFX Offering, DCR West Rack acquisition, Toledo Tank Farm acquisition and the Delaware City Products Pipeline and Truck Rack acquisition, PBFX's assets were operated within the refining operations of our Delaware City and Toledo refineries and wereWe do not considered to be a separate reportable segment. We did not analyzeseparately discuss our results by individual segment as, apart from PBFX’s third-party acquisitions, our Logistics segment does not have any third party revenuesignificant third-party revenues and substantially alla significant portion of its operating results eliminateare eliminated in consolidation. Additionally, third party expenses attributable directly to the Logistics segment are immaterial relative to our consolidated operating results.

Our results for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20152021 were negativelypositively impacted by a non-cash special itemitems consisting of a non-cash, inventorypre-tax lower of cost or market ("LCM"(“LCM”) inventory adjustment of approximately $208.3$264.0 million, onor $193.8 million net of tax, a net basis, which includes the reversalchange in fair value of the LCM charge recorded in the second quarter of 2015. The LCM adjustment is a result of the changing crude oil and refined product prices from the second quarter of 2015contingent consideration primarily related to the endMartinez Acquisition of $4.0 million, or $2.9 million net of tax and a $4.1 million tax benefit associated with the third quarterremeasurement of 2015. During this period the prices have remained below historical costs. Excluding the impact of the net change in LCM reserve of $208.3 million, ourcertain deferred tax assets. Our results were positively impacted by higher crack spreads in the East Coast and Mid-Continent partially offset by unfavorable movements in crude oil differentials and the impact of the unplanned downtime at our Delaware City refinery in August 2015 and planned turnaround at our Delaware City refinery in September 2015 which reduced throughput and increased operating expenses.
Revenues— Revenues totaled $3.2 billion for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2015 compared2020 were positively impacted by special items consisting of a non-cash, pre-tax LCM inventory adjustment of approximately $584.2 million, or $430.6 million net of tax, the change in the fair value of the contingent consideration primarily related to $5.3the Martinez Acquisition of $12.1 million, or $8.9 million net of tax and the gain on the sale of hydrogen plants of $471.1 million, or $347.2 million net of tax. These favorable impacts were offset by severance costs related to a reduction in our workforce of $12.9 million, or $9.5 million net of tax.
Excluding the impact of these special items, our results continue to be negatively impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic which has caused a significant decline in the demand for our refined products and a decrease in the prices for crude oil and refined products, both of which have negatively impacted our revenues, cost of products sold and operating income. However, when comparing our results to the three months ended June 30, 2020, demand for our products has started to recover, evidenced by overall higher throughput volumes and barrels sold at the majority of our refineries, as well as higher refining margins in comparison to the prior year.
Revenues— Revenues totaled $6.9 billion for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2014, a decrease2021 compared to $2.5 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of approximately $2.0$4.4 billion,, or 38.8%176.0%. Revenues per barrel were $78.46 and $35.77 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of 119.3% directly related to higher hydrocarbon commodity prices. For the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2015, the total throughput rates in the East Coast and Mid-Continent refineries averaged approximately 301,800 bpd and 173,600 bpd, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2014,2021, the total throughput rates at our East Coast, Mid-Continent, Gulf Coast and Mid-ContinentWest Coast refineries averaged approximately 344,100250,000 bpd, 150,400 bpd, 174,600 bpd and 151,400 bpd, respectively. The decline in throughput rates at our East Coast refineries in 2015 compared to 2014 is primarily due to unplanned downtime at our Delaware City refinery in August 2015 and a planned turnaround in September 2015 at our Delaware City refinery. The increase in throughput rates at our Mid-Continent refinery in 2015 compared to 2014 was primarily attributable to favorable market conditions at our Toledo refinery in the third quarter of 2015. For the three months ended September 30, 2015, the

total barrels sold at our East Coast and Mid-Continent refineries averaged approximately 355,400 bpd and 179,700299,200 bpd, respectively. For the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2014,2020, the total throughput rates at our East Coast, Mid-Continent, Gulf Coast and West Coast refineries averaged approximately 242,300 bpd, 76,900 bpd, 132,300 bpd and 223,600 bpd, respectively.

Income Tax Expense— PBF LLC is organized as a limited liability company and PBFX is an MLP, both of which are treated as “flow-through” entities for federal income tax purposes and therefore are not subject to income tax. However, two subsidiaries of Chalmette Refining L.L.C (“Chalmette Refining”) and our Canadian subsidiary, PBF Energy Limited (“PBF Ltd.”) are treated as C-Corporations for income tax purposes and may incur income taxes with respect to their earnings, as applicable. The members of PBF LLC are required to include their proportionate share of PBF LLC’s taxable income or loss, which includes PBF LLC’s allocable share of PBFX’s pre-tax income or loss, on their respective tax returns. PBF LLC generally makes distributions to its members, per the terms of PBF LLC’s amended and restated limited liability company agreement, related to such taxes on a pro-rata basis. PBF Energy recognizes an income tax expense or benefit in our consolidated financial statements based on PBF Energy’s allocable share of PBF LLC’s pre-tax income or loss, which was approximately 99.2% on a weighted-average basis for both the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. PBF Energy’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not reflect any benefit or provision for income taxes on the pre-tax income or loss attributable to the noncontrolling interests in PBF LLC or PBFX (although, as described above, PBF LLC must make tax distributions to all its members on a pro-rata basis). PBF Energy’s effective tax rate, excluding the impact of noncontrolling interest, for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was 8.6% and 26.2%, respectively, reflecting tax adjustments for discrete items during the quarters.
Noncontrolling Interest— PBF Energy is the sole managing member of, and has a controlling interest in, PBF LLC. As a resultthe sole managing member of PBF LLC, PBF Energy operates and controls all of the initial public offeringbusiness and affairs of PBF LLC and its subsidiaries. PBF Energy consolidates the financial results of PBF LLC and its subsidiaries, including PBFX. With respect to the consolidation of PBF LLC, the Company records a noncontrolling interest for the economic interest in PBF LLC held by members other than PBF Energy, and with respect to the consolidation of PBFX, the Company records a noncontrolling interest for the economic interests in PBFX held by the public unit holdersunitholders of PBFX.PBFX, and with respect to the consolidation of PBF Holding, the Company records a 20% noncontrolling interest for the ownership interests in two subsidiaries of Chalmette Refining held by a third party.

This net increase is mainly attributable to higher interest costs associated with the issuance of the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility and the PBFX Term Loan in connection with the PBFX Offering as well as the issuance of the PBFX2025 Senior Secured Notes in May 2015 partially offset by the termination of our crude2020 and feedstock supply agreement with MSCG, effective July 31, 2014.December 2020. Interest expense includes interest on long-term debt including the PBFX credit facilities, costs related to the sale and leaseback of our precious metals catalyst, interest expense incurred in connection with our crude and feedstock supply agreement with Statoil,metal catalysts, financing costs associated with the Inventory Intermediation Agreements with J. Aron, letter of credit fees associated with the purchase of certain crude oils and the amortization of deferred financing costs. PBF LLC interest expense totaled $166.1 million and $119.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively (inclusive of $5.0 million and $5.1 million, respectively, of incremental interest expense on the affiliate note payable with PBF Energy that eliminates in consolidation at the PBF Energy level).
Income Tax Expense— PBF LLC is organized as a limited liability company and PBFX is an MLP, both of which are treated as “flow-through” entities for federal income tax purposes and therefore are not subject to income tax. However, two subsidiaries of Chalmette Refining and our Canadian subsidiary, PBF Ltd., are treated as C-Corporations for income tax purposes and may incur income taxes with respect to their earnings, as applicable. The members of PBF LLC are required to include their proportionate share of PBF LLC’s taxable income or loss, which includes PBF LLC’s allocable share of PBFX’s pre-tax income or loss, on their respective tax returns. PBF LLC generally makes distributions to its members, per the terms of PBF LLC’s amended and restated limited liability company agreement, related to such taxes on a pro-rata basis. PBF Energy recognizes an income tax expense or benefit in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements based on PBF Energy’s allocable share of PBF LLC’s pre-tax income or loss, which was approximately 99.2% and 99.1%, on a weighted-average basis for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively. PBF Energy’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not reflect any benefit or provision for income taxes on the pre-tax income or loss attributable to the noncontrolling interests in PBF LLC or PBFX (although, as described above, PBF LLC must make tax distributions to all its members on a pro-rata basis). PBF Energy’s effective tax rate, excluding the impact of noncontrolling interests, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 was (144.4%) and 25.9%, respectively.

Noncontrolling Interest— PBF Energy is the sole managing member of, and has a controlling interest in, PBF LLC. As a resultthe sole managing member of PBF LLC, PBF Energy operates and controls all of the initial public offeringbusiness and affairs of PBF LLC and its subsidiaries. PBF Energy consolidates the financial results of PBF LLC and its subsidiaries, including PBFX. With respect to the consolidation of PBF LLC, the Company records a noncontrolling interest for the economic interest in PBF LLC held by members other than PBF Energy, and with respect to the consolidation of PBFX, the Company records a noncontrolling interest for the economic interests in PBFX held by the public unit holdersunitholders of PBFX.PBFX, and with respect to the consolidation of PBF Holding, the Company records a 20% noncontrolling interest for the ownership interests in two subsidiaries of Chalmette Refining held by a third-party. The total noncontrolling interest on the consolidated statementCondensed Consolidated Statements of operationsOperations represents the portion of the Company’s earnings or loss attributable to the economic interests held by members of PBF LLC other than PBF Energy, by the public common unit holdersunitholders of PBFX.PBFX and by the third-party stockholders of certain of Chalmette Refining’s subsidiaries. The total noncontrolling interest on the balance sheetCondensed Consolidated Balance Sheets represents the portion of the Company’s net assets attributable to the economic interests held by the members of PBF LLC other than PBF Energy, by the public common unit holdersunitholders of PBFX.PBFX and by the third-party stockholders of the two Chalmette Refining subsidiaries. PBF Energy’s weighted-average equity noncontrolling interest ownership percentage in PBF LLC for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was approximately 0.8% and 0.9%, respectively. The carrying amount of the noncontrolling interest on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets attributable to the noncontrolling interest is not equal to the noncontrolling interest ownership percentage due to the effect of income taxes and related agreements that pertain solely to PBF Energy.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management uses certain financial measures to evaluate our operating performance that are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with U.S. GAAP.GAAP (“Non-GAAP”). These measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP,accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and our calculations thereof may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies. Such Non-GAAP financial measures are presented only in the context of PBF Energy’s results and are not presented or discussed in respect to PBF LLC.
Special Items
The non-GAAPNon-GAAP measures presented include Adjusted Fully-Converted net income excluding special items, income from continuing operationsNet Income (Loss) excluding special items, EBITDA excluding special items and gross refining margin excluding special items. The specialSpecial items for the periods presented relate to a LCM adjustment. LCM is a GAAP guidelineinventory adjustments, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, changes in the Tax Receivable Agreement liability, debt extinguishment costs, gain on sale of hydrogen plants, severance costs related to inventory valuation that requires inventory to be stated at the lower of cost or market. Our inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using last-in, first-out (LIFO) inventory valuation methodology,reduction in which the most recently incurred costs are charged to cost of sales and inventories are valued at base layer acquisition costs. Market is determined based on an assessment of the current estimated replacement costworkforce and net realizable selling pricetax benefit on remeasurement of the inventory. In periods where the market price of our inventory

44


declines substantially, cost values of inventory may exceed market values. In such instances, we record an adjustmentdeferred tax assets. See “Notes to write down the value of inventory to market value in accordance with GAAP. In subsequent periods, the value of inventory is reassessed and a LCM adjustment is recorded to reflect the net change in the LCM inventory reserve between the prior period and the current period.Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for more details on all special items disclosed. Although we believe that non-GAAPNon-GAAP financial measures, excluding the impact of special items, provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the results and performance of our business and allow for more usefulhelpful period-over-period comparisons, such non-GAAPNon-GAAP measures should only be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income (Loss) Excluding Special Items
PBF Energy utilizes results presented on an Adjusted Fully-Converted basis that reflects an assumed exchange of all PBF LLC Series A Units for shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock. In addition, we present results on an Adjusted Fully-Converted basis excluding special items as described above. We believe that these Adjusted Fully-Converted measures, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, are useful to investors to compare PBF Energy results across different periods and to facilitate an understanding of our operating results.
Neither Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income (Loss) nor Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income (Loss) excluding special items should be considered an alternative to net income (loss) presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Fully-Converted Net Income (Loss) excluding special items presented by other companies may not be comparable to our presentation, since each company may define these terms differently. The differences between Adjusted Fully-Converted and GAAP results are as follows:
1.    Assumed exchange of all PBF LLC Series A Units for shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock. As a result of the assumed exchange of all PBF LLC Series A Units, the noncontrolling interest related to these units is converted to controlling interest. Management believes that it is useful to provide the per-share effect associated with the assumed exchange of all PBF LLC Series A Units.
2.    Income Taxes. Prior to PBF Energy’s initial public offering (“IPO”), PBF Energy was organized as a limited liability company treated as a “flow-through” entity for income tax purposes, and even after PBF Energy’s IPO, not all of its earnings are subject to corporate-level income taxes. Adjustments have been made to the Adjusted Fully-Converted tax provisions and earnings to assume that PBF Energy had adopted its post-IPO corporate tax structure for all periods presented and is taxed as a C-corporation in the U.S. at the prevailing corporate rates. These assumptions are consistent with the assumption in clause 1 above that all PBF LLC Series A Units are exchanged for shares of PBF Energy Class A
75


common stock, as the assumed exchange would change the amount of PBF Energy’s earnings that are subject to corporate income tax.

Gross Refining Margin and Gross Refining Margin Excluding Special Items
Gross refining margin is defined as consolidated gross margin excluding refinery depreciation, refinery operating expenses,expense, and gross margin of PBFX. We believe both gross refining margin is anand gross refining margin excluding special items are important measuremeasures of operating performance and providesprovide useful information to investors because it is a betterthey are helpful metric comparison forcomparisons to the industry refining margin benchmarks, as the refining margin benchmarks do not include a charge for refinery operating expenses and depreciation. In order to assess our operating performance, we compare our gross refining margin (revenue(revenues less cost of sales)products and other) to industry refining margin benchmarks and crude oil prices as defined in the table below.
GrossNeither gross refining margin nor gross refining margin excluding special items should not be considered an alternative to consolidated gross margin, operating income from operations, net cash flows from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Gross refining margin and gross refining margin excluding special items presented by other companies may not be comparable to our presentation, since each company may define this termthese terms differently.

EBITDA, EBITDA Excluding Special Items and Adjusted EBITDA
Our management uses EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization), EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA as measures of operating performance to assist in comparing performance from period to period on a consistent basis and to readily view operating trends, as a measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations, and in communications with our board of directors, creditors, analysts and investors concerning our financial performance. Our outstanding indebtedness for borrowed money and other contractual obligations also include similar measures as a basis for certain covenants under those agreements which may differ from the Adjusted EBITDA definition described below.
EBITDA, EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA are not presentations made in accordance with GAAP and our computation of EBITDA, EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA may vary from others in our industry. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA contains some, but not all, adjustments that are taken into account in the calculation of the components of various covenants in the agreements governing our senior secured notes and other credit facilities. EBITDA, EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to operating income from operations or net income as measures of operating performance. In addition, EBITDA, EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA are not presented as, and should not be considered, an alternative to cash flows from operations as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before equity-basedadjustments for items such as stock-based compensation expense, gains (losses) from certain derivative activities and contingent consideration and the non-cash change in the deferralfair value of gross profit related to thecatalyst obligations, gain on sale of certain finished products andhydrogen plants, the write down of inventory to the LCM.LCM, changes in the liability for Tax Receivable Agreement due to factors out of PBF Energy’s control such as changes in tax rates, debt extinguishment costs related to refinancing activities, change in the fair value of contingent consideration and certain other non-cash items. Other companies, including other companies in our industry, may calculate EBITDA, EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting itstheir usefulness as a comparative measure.measures. EBITDA, EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA also hashave limitations as an analytical tooltools and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include that EBITDA, EBITDA excluding special items and Adjusted EBITDA:
doesdo not reflect depreciation expense or our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
doesdo not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
doesdo not reflect our interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt;
doesdo not reflect realized and unrealized gains and losses from certain hedging activities, which may have a substantial impact on our cash flow;
doesdo not reflect certain other non-cash income and expenses; and
excludesexclude income taxes that may represent a reduction in available cash.

Notes to Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The following notes are applicable to the Non-GAAP Financial Measures above:
(1) DuringRepresents the third quarterelimination of 2015, the Company recordednoncontrolling interest associated with the ownership by the members of PBF LLC other than PBF Energy, as if such members had fully exchanged their PBF LLC Series A Units for shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock.
(2)    Represents an adjustment to value its inventoriesreflect PBF Energy’s estimated annualized statutory corporate tax rate of approximately 26.6% and 26.3% for the 2020 and 2019 periods, respectively, applied to net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest for all periods presented. The adjustment assumes the full exchange of existing PBF LLC Series A Units as described in (1) above.
(3)    Special items:
LCM inventory adjustment - LCM is a GAAP requirement related to inventory valuation that mandates inventory to be stated at the lower of cost or market which resulted in a net impact of $208.3 million reflecting the change inmarket. Our inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) inventory valuation methodology, in which the most recently incurred costs are charged to cost of sales and inventories are valued at base layer acquisition costs. Market is determined based on an assessment of the current estimated replacement cost and net realizable selling price of the inventory. In periods where the market price of our inventory reserve from $562.9 million at June 30, 2015 to $771.3 million at September 30, 2015. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recordeddeclines substantially, cost values of inventory may exceed market values. In such instances, we record an adjustment to write down the value its inventoriesof inventory to market value in accordance with GAAP. In subsequent periods, the lowervalue of cost or market which resulted in ainventory is reassessed and an LCM inventory adjustment is recorded to reflect the net impact of $81.1 million reflecting the change in the lower of cost or marketLCM inventory reserve from $690.1 million at December 31, 2014 to $771.3 million at September 30, 2015.between the prior period and the current period. The net impact of these LCM inventory adjustments are included in the Refining segment's operatingsegment’s income from operations, but are excluded from the operating results presented, in the tableas applicable, in order to make such information comparable between periods.

Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration - During the three months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded a change in fair value of the contingent consideration primarily related to the Martinez Contingent Consideration which increased income from operations and net income by $4.0 million and $2.9 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded a change in fair value of the contingent consideration primarily related to the Martinez Contingent Consideration which decreased income from operations and net income by $26.1 million and $19.2 million, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a change in the fair value of the contingent consideration primarily related to the Martinez Contingent Consideration which increased income from operations and net income by $12.1 million and $8.9 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a change in the fair value of the contingent consideration primarily related to the Martinez Contingent Consideration which increased income from operations and net income by $64.9 million and $47.8 million, respectively.
Gain on Sale of Hydrogen Plants - During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a gain on the sale of five hydrogen plants. The gain increased income from operations and net income by $471.1 million and $347.2 million, respectively. There was no such gain during the three or six months ended June 30, 2021.
Severance Costs - During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a severance charge related to a reduction in our workforce that decreased income from operations and net income by $12.9 million and $9.5 million, respectively. There were no such costs during the three or six months ended June 30, 2021.
Debt Extinguishment Costs - During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded pre-tax debt extinguishment costs related to the redemption of the 2023 Senior Notes which decreased income before income taxes and net income by $22.2 million and $16.4 million, respectively. There were no such costs in the three or six months ended June 30, 2021.
Change in Tax Receivable Agreement liability - During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a change in the Tax Receivable Agreement liability that decreased income before income taxes and net income by $11.6 million and $8.5 million, respectively. There was no change to the Tax Receivable Agreement liability during any of the other periods presented. The changes in the Tax Receivable Agreement liability reflect charges or benefits attributable to changes in our obligation under the Tax Receivable Agreement due to factors out of our control such as changes in tax rates, as well as periodic adjustments to our liability based, in part, on an updated estimate of the amounts that we expect to pay, using assumptions consistent with those used in our concurrent estimate of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.
Recomputed Income tax on special items - The income tax impact on these special items, other than the net tax expense special item discussed below, is calculated using the tax rates shown in (2) above.
Net tax benefit on remeasurement of deferred tax assets - During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded a decrease to our deferred tax valuation allowance of $4.1 million and $2.4 million, respectively, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets. There was no such benefit in the three or six months ended June 30, 2020.

(5)    Represents weighted-average diluted shares outstanding assuming the conversion of all common stock equivalents, including options and warrants for PBF LLC Series A Units and performance share units and options for shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock as calculated under the treasury stock method (to the extent the impact of such exchange would not be anti-dilutive) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Common stock equivalents exclude the effects of performance share units and options and warrants to purchase 11,091,279 shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock and PBF LLC Series A Units because they are anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Common stock equivalents exclude the effects of performance share units and options and warrants to purchase 11,483,336 and 11,729,631 shares of PBF Energy Class A common stock and PBF LLC Series A Units because they are anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. For periods showing a net loss, all common stock equivalents and unvested restricted stock are considered anti-dilutive.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
OurTypically our primary sources of liquidity are our cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents and borrowing availability under our credit facilities, as described below; however, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the related governmental and consumer responses, our business and results of operations are being negatively impacted. The worldwide economic slowdown and governmental responses, including travel restrictions and stay-at-home orders, have resulted in a significant decrease in the demand for and market prices of our products. In the current year, demand for refined petroleum products has started to recover following the lifting or easing of these restrictions by many governmental authorities in response to decreasing COVID-19 infection rates and the distribution of COVID-19 vaccines. We continue to be focused on assessing and adapting to the challenging operating environment and evaluating our strategic measures to preserve liquidity and strengthen our balance sheet. Our response to the current economic environment and its impact on our liquidity is more fully described in the “Liquidity” section below.

The cash flow activity of PBF LLC for the period ended June 30, 2021 is materially consistent with that of PBF Energy discussed above, other than changes in deferred income taxes and certain working capital items, which are different from PBF Energy due to certain tax related items not applicable to PBF LLC. Additionally, the PBF LLC cash flows reflect activity of the affiliate note payable with PBF Energy of $1.0 million included in cash flows from financing activities, which eliminates in consolidation at PBF Energy.
The cash flow activity of PBF LLC for the period ended June 30, 2020 is materially consistent with that of PBF Energy discussed above, other than changes in deferred income taxes and certain working capital items, which are different from PBF Energy due to certain tax related items not applicable to PBF LLC. Additionally, the PBF LLC cash flows reflect activity of the affiliate note payable with PBF Energy of $0.6 million included in cash flows from financing activities, which eliminates in consolidation at PBF Energy.

Debt and Credit Facilities
PBF Holding Revolving Credit Facility
The Revolving Credit Facility has a maximum commitment available to us of $3.4 billion and matures in May 2023. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at the Alternative Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or at the Adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus the Applicable Margin, all as defined in the agreement governing the Revolving Credit Facility (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”). In addition, an accordion feature allows for commitments of up to $3.5 billion.
On February 18, 2020, in connection with the entry into a $300.0 million uncommitted receivables purchase facility (the “Receivables Facility”), we amended the Revolving Credit Facility and entered into a related intercreditor agreement to allow us to sell certain Eligible Receivables, as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement, derived from the sale of refined products over truck racks. Under the Receivables Facility, we sell such receivables to a bank subject to bank approval and certain conditions. The sales of receivables under the Receivables Facility are absolute and irrevocable but subject to certain repurchase obligations under certain circumstances.
On May 7, 2020, we further amended the Revolving Credit Facility, to increase PBF Holding’s ability to incur certain secured debt from an amount equal to 10% of its total assets to 20% of its total assets.
PBFX Revolving Credit Facility
The PBFX Revolving Credit Facility has a maximum commitment available to PBFX of $500.0 million and matures in July 2023. PBFX has the ability to further increase the maximum availability by an additional $250.0 million to a total commitment of $750.0 million, subject to receiving increased commitments from lenders or other financial institutions and satisfaction of certain conditions. Borrowings under the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility bear interest either at the Alternative Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or at the LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin, all as defined in the agreement governing the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility (the “PBFX Revolving Credit Agreement”).
Senior Notes
On January 24, 2020, PBF Holding entered into an indenture among PBF Holding’s wholly-owned subsidiary, PBF Finance (together with PBF Holding, the “Issuers”), the guarantors named therein (collectively the “Guarantors”), Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Trustee and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, under which the Issuers issued $1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Senior Notes. The Issuers received net proceeds of approximately $987.0 million from the offering after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and offering expenses. We used the net proceeds primarily to fully redeem the 2023 Senior Notes, including accrued and unpaid interest, on February 14, 2020, and to fund a portion of the cash consideration for the Martinez Acquisition.
On May 13, 2020, PBF Holding entered into an indenture among the Issuers, the Guarantors, and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Trustee, Paying Agent, Registrar, Transfer Agent, Authenticating Agent and Notes Collateral Agent, under which the Issuers issued $1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Senior Secured Notes. The Issuers received net proceeds of approximately $982.9 million from the offering after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and offering expenses. We used the net proceeds for general corporate purposes. On December 21, 2020, we issued $250.0 million, in a tack-on offering, in aggregate principal amount of the additional 2025 Senior Secured Notes. The net proceeds from this offering were approximately $245.7 million after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and offering expenses. We used the net proceeds for general corporate purposes.
We are in compliance as of June 30, 2021 with all covenants, including financial covenants, in all of our debt agreements.
86


Liquidity
As of June 30, 2021, our operational liquidity was more than $2.6 billion, which consists of $1.4 billion of cash, excluding cash held at PBFX, and more than $1.2 billion of borrowing availability under our Revolving Credit Facility, which includes our cash on hand. In addition, as of June 30, 2021, PBFX had approximately $368.4 million of liquidity, including approximately $32.4 million in cash, and access to approximately $336.0 million under the PBFX Revolving Credit Facility.
Due to the unprecedented events caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the negative impact it has caused to our liquidity, we executed a plan to strengthen our balance sheet and increase our flexibility and responsiveness by incorporating certain adjustments to our operations and cost saving measures. We remain committed to our plan in the current year with notable events highlighted below:
On June 17, 2021, the Inventory Intermediation Agreement by and among J. Aron, PBF Holding and Delaware City Refining Company LLC (“DCR”) was extended to August 31, 2021, which term may be further extended by mutual consent of the parties to June 30, 2022;
On December 31, 2020, we completed the operational reconfiguration of our East Coast Refining System comprised of our Delaware City and Paulsboro refineries. The reconfiguration resulted in the temporary idling of certain Paulsboro refinery units and overall lower throughput and inventory levels. Annual operating and capital expenditures savings are expected to be approximately $100.0 million and $50.0 million, respectively, relative to average historic levels;
Implemented cost reduction and cash preservation initiatives, including a significant decrease in 2021 planned capital expenditures, lowering 2021 operating expenses driven by minimizing discretionary activities and third-party services; and
Continued the temporary suspension of our quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share, anticipated to preserve approximately $35.0 million of cash each quarter, to support the balance sheet.
We are actively responding to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing rebalancing in the global oil markets. We continue to adjust our operational plans to the evolving market conditions and continue to target and execute the expense reduction measures.
While it is impossible to estimate the duration or complete financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we believe that the strategic actions we have taken, plus our cash flows from operations and available capital resources, will be sufficient to meet our and our subsidiaries'subsidiaries’ capital expenditure,expenditures, working capital dividend payments,needs, and debt service and share repurchase program requirements, for the next twelve months. We expectcannot assure you that our assumptions used to financeestimate our liquidity requirements will be correct because the planned Torrance Acquisition with a combinationimpact that the COVID-19 pandemic is having on us and our industry is ongoing and unprecedented. The extent of cashthe impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on hand, debt,our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity will depend largely on future developments, including the proceeds from the issuanceseverity, location and duration of the 7.0% Senior Secured Notes due 2023,outbreak, the effectiveness of the vaccine programs and proceeds contributedother actions undertaken by national, regional and local governments and health officials to uscontain the virus or treat its effects, and how quickly and to what extent economic conditions improve and normal business and operating conditions resume in connectionthe remainder of 2021 or thereafter. As a result, we may require additional capital, and, from time to time, may pursue funding strategies in the capital markets or through private transactions to strengthen our liquidity and/or fund strategic initiatives. Such additional financing may not be available at favorable terms or at all.
87


We may incur additional indebtedness in the future, including additional secured indebtedness, subject to the satisfaction of any debt incurrence and, if applicable, lien incurrence limitation covenants in our existing financing agreements. Although we were in compliance with PBF Energy's October 2015 Equity Offering. However,incurrence covenants during the six months ended June 30, 2021, to the extent that any of our activities triggered these covenants, there are no assurances that conditions could not change significantly, and that such changes could adversely impact our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations depends, in part,meet some of these incurrence covenants at the time that we needed to. Failure to meet the incurrence covenants could impose certain incremental restrictions on, petroleum market pricingamong other matters, our ability to incur new debt (including secured debt) and general economic, political and other factors beyondalso may limit the extent to which we may pay future dividends, make new investments, repurchase our control. We are in compliance with all of the covenants, including financial covenants, for all of our debt agreements.
Cash Flow Analysis

Crude and Feedstock Supply Agreements
Certain of our purchases of crude oil under our agreements with foreign national oil companies require that we post letters of credit, if open terms are exceeded, and arrange for shipment. We pay for the crude when invoiced, at which time any potential capital expenditures relatedapplicable letters of credit are lifted. We have a contract with Saudi Arabian Oil Company (“Saudi Aramco”) pursuant to which we have been purchasing up to approximately 100,000 bpd of crude oil from Saudi Aramco that is processed at our Paulsboro refinery. In connection with the acquisition of the Chalmette Acquisition, for facility improvements and refinery maintenance and turnarounds.
As noted in "Business Developments", we entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement to purchase the ownership interests of Chalmette Refining. The aggregate purchase pricecontract with Petróleos de Venezuela S.A. (“PDVSA”) for the Chalmette Acquisition was $322.0 million in cash, plus inventorysupply of 40,000 to 60,000 bpd of crude oil that can be processed at any of our East or Gulf Coast refineries. We have not sourced crude oil under this agreement since 2017 when PDVSA suspended deliveries due to the parties’ inability to agree to mutually acceptable payment terms and working capitalbecause of $233.1 million, which is subject to final valuation within ninety days of closing. The Chalmette Acquisition closed on November 1, 2015. The transaction was financed through a combination of cash on handU.S. government sanctions against PDVSA. Notwithstanding the suspension, the U.S. government sanctions imposed against PDVSA and borrowingsVenezuela prevented us from purchasing crude oil under our existing credit facility.

Tax Receivable Agreement Obligations
PBF Energy used a portion of the proceeds from its initial public offering to purchase PBF LLC Series A Units from the members of PBF LLC other than PBF Energy. In addition, the members of PBF LLC other than PBF Energy may (subject to the terms of the exchange agreement) exchange their PBF LLC Series A Units for shares of Class A common stock of PBF Energy on a one-for-one basis. As a result of both the purchaseimpact of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance recognized in accordance with ASC 740, PBF LLC Series A UnitsEnergy’s liability for the Tax Receivable Agreement was reduced to zero as of June 30, 2021 and subsequent secondary offerings and exchanges,December 31, 2020. As future taxable income is recorded, increases in our Tax Receivable Agreement liability may be necessary in conjunction with the remeasurement of deferred tax assets. If PBF Energy is entitled to a proportionate share of the existing tax basis of the assets of PBF LLC. Such transactions have resulted in increases in the tax basis of the assets of PBF LLC that otherwise woulddoes not have been available. Both this proportionate share and these increases in tax basis may reduce the amount of tax thattaxable income, PBF Energy would otherwise begenerally is not required (absent a change of control or circumstances requiring an early termination payment) to pay in the future. These increases in tax basis have reduced the amount of the tax that PBF Energy would have otherwise been required to pay and may also decrease gains (or increase losses) on the future disposition of certain capital assets to the extent the tax basis is allocated to those capital assets. PBF Energy entered into a tax receivable agreement with the current and former members of PBF LLC other than PBF Energy that provides for the payment by PBF Energy to such members of 85% of the amount of the benefits, if any, that PBF Energy is deemed to realize as a result of (i) these increases in tax basis and (ii) certain other tax benefits related to entering into the tax receivable agreement, including tax benefits attributable tomake payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement for that taxable year because no benefit will have been actually realized. However, any tax receivable agreement. benefits that do not result in realized benefits in a given tax year will likely generate tax attributes that may be utilized to generate benefits in previous or future tax years. The utilization of such tax attributes will result in payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement.
These payment obligations, if any, are obligations of PBF Energy and not of PBF LLC or any of its subsidiaries.subsidiaries including PBF Holding or PBFX. However, because PBF Energy is a holding company with no operations of its own, PBF Energy’s ability to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement is dependent upon a number of factors, including its subsidiaries’ ability to make distributions for the benefit of PBF LLC’s members, including PBF Energy, its ability, if necessary, to finance its obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement and existing indebtedness which may limit PBF Energy’s subsidiaries’ ability to make distributions.
The foregoing are merely estimates - the actual payments could differ materially. It is possible that future transactions or events could increase or decrease the actual tax benefits realized and the corresponding Tax Receivable Agreement payments.

Dividend and Distribution Policy
PBF EnergyLogistics LP
With respectDue to dividendsthe uncertainty of the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic will have on its business, PBFX has decided to reduce their quarterly distribution to its minimum quarterly distribution of $0.30 per unit, which represents a shift in its distribution strategy to build cash flow coverage, de-lever the business and distributions paid duringstrengthen its financial resources as they continue to pursue potential organic growth projects or strategic acquisition opportunities. However, PBFX intends to continue to pay at least the nineminimum quarterly distribution of $0.30per unit per quarter, or $1.20 per unit on an annualized basis, which aggregates to approximately $19.0 million per quarter or approximately $76.0 million on an annualized basis, based on the number of common units outstanding as of June 30, 2021.

Since, as described above, there was sufficient cash and cash equivalents and borrowing capacity as of September 30, 2015, PBF Holding would have been permitted under our debt agreements to make these distributions; however, our ability to continue to comply with our debt covenants is, to a significant degree, subject to our operating results, which are dependent on a number of factors outside of our control. We believe our and our subsidiaries' available cash and cash equivalents, other sources of liquidity to operate our business and operating performance provides us with a reasonable basis for our assessment that we can support PBF Energy's intended distribution policy.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to market risks, including changes in commodity prices and interest rates. Our primary commodity price risk is associated with the difference between the prices we sell our refined products for and the prices we pay for crude oil and other feedstocks. We may use derivative instruments to manage the risks from changes in the prices of crude oil and refined products, natural gas, interest rates, or to capture market opportunities.

Commodity Price Risk
Our earnings, cash flow and liquidity are significantly affected by a variety of factors beyond our control, including the supply of, and demand for, crude oil, other feedstocks, refined products and natural gas. The supply of and demand for these commodities depend on, among other factors, changes in domestic and foreign economies, weather conditions, domestic and foreign political affairs, planned and unplanned downtime in refineries, pipelines and production facilities, production levels, the availability of imports, the marketing of competitive and alternative fuels, and the extent of government regulation. As a result, the prices of these commodities can be volatile. Our revenues fluctuate significantly with movements in industry refined product prices, our cost of sales fluctuates significantly with movements in crude oil and feedstock prices and our operating expenses fluctuate with movements in the price of natural gas. We manage our exposure to these commodity price risks through our supply and inventory intermediationofftake agreements as well as through the use of various commodity derivative instruments.
Certain of our agreements reduce the time we are exposed to market price fluctuations. For example, our crude and feedstock supply agreement with Statoil allows us to take title to and price our crude oil at locations in close proximity to our refineries, as opposed to the crude oil origination point. The crude supply agreement with MSCG for our Toledo refinery, which terminated on July 31, 2014, allowed us to price and pay for our crude oil as it is processed at that refinery.
We may use non-trading derivative instruments to manage exposure to commodity price risks associated with the purchase or sale of crude oil and feedstocks, finished products and natural gas outside of theour supply and offtake agreements. The derivative instruments we use include physical commodity contracts and exchange-traded and over-the-counter financial instruments. We mark-to-market our commodity derivative instruments and recognize the changes in their fair value in our statements of operations.
The negative impact of the unprecedented global health and economic crisis sparked by the COVID-19 pandemic, combined with uncertainty around future output levels of the world’s largest oil producers increased unpredictability in oil supply and demand resulting in an economic challenge to our industry which has not occurred since our formation. This combination resulted in significant reduction in demand for our refined products and abnormal volatility in oil commodity prices. Demand for and market prices of most of our products started to recover following the lifting or easing of these restrictions by many governmental authorities in response to decreasing COVID-19 infection rates and the distribution of the COVID-19 vaccines at the beginning of 2021.
At SeptemberJune 30, 20152021 and December 31, 2014,2020, we had gross open commodity derivative contracts representing 47.927.8 million barrels and 49.310.0 million barrels, respectively, with an unrealized net gainloss of $22.8$13.9 million and $31.2$3.0 million, respectively. The open commodity derivative contracts as of SeptemberJune 30, 20152021 expire at various times during 2015 and 2016.2021.
We carry inventories of crude oil, intermediates and refined products (“hydrocarbon inventories”) on our balance sheet,Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, the values of which are subject to fluctuations in market prices. Our hydrocarbon inventories totaled approximately 19.331.3 million barrels and 18.628.2 million barrels at SeptemberJune 30, 20152021 and December 31, 2014,2020, respectively. The average cost of our hydrocarbon inventories was approximately $95.09$79.79 and $94.29$78.64 per barrel on a LIFO basis at SeptemberJune 30, 20152021 and December 31, 2014, respectively, excluding2020, respectively. The December 31, 2020 results exclude the net impact of an LCM adjustmentsinventory adjustment of approximately $771.3$669.6 million, and $690.1 million, respectively.whereas at June 30, 2021, the replacement value of inventory exceeded the LIFO carrying value on a converted basis. If market prices of our inventory decline to a level below theour average cost, we may be required to further write down the carrying value of our hydrocarbon inventories to market.
92


Our predominant variable operating cost is energy, which is comprised primarily of natural gas and electricity. We are therefore sensitive to movements in natural gas prices. Assuming normal operating conditions, we annually consume a total of approximately 37expect our annual consumption to range from 75 million to 95 million MMBTUs of natural gas in total amongst our threesix refineries. Accordingly, a $1.00 per MMBTU change in natural gas prices would increase or decrease our natural gas costs by approximately $37$75.0 million to $95.0 million.

Compliance Program Price Risk
We are exposed to market risks related to our obligation to buy and the volatility in the price of Renewable Identification Numbers ("RINs")credits needed to comply with various governmental and regulatory compliance programs, which includes RINs required to comply with the Renewable Fuel Standard. Our overall RINs obligation is based on a percentage of our domestic shipments of on-road fuels as established by the EPA.Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”). To the degree we are unable to blend the required amount of biofuels to satisfy our RINs obligation, we must purchase RINs on the open market. To mitigate the impact of thisthe market risk relating to our obligations on our results of operations and cash flows, we may elect to purchase RINs whenor other environmental credits at the times we deem the price of these instruments is deemedto be favorable.

In addition, we are exposed to risks associated with complying with federal and state legislative and regulatory measures to address greenhouse gas and other emissions. Requirements to reduce emissions could result in increased costs to operate and maintain our facilities as well as implement and manage new emission controls and programs put in place. For example, in September 2016, the state of California enacted AB 32, which further reduces greenhouse gas emissions targets to 40% below 1990 levels by 2030. Compliance with such emission standards may require the purchase of emission credits or similar instruments.
Certain of these compliance contracts or instruments qualify as derivative instruments. We generally elect the normal purchase normal sale exception under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, for such instruments, and therefore do not record these contracts at their fair value.
Interest Rate Risk
The maximum commitment under our Revolving Credit Facility is $3.4 billion. Borrowings under the Revolving LoanCredit Facility bear interest either at the Alternative Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin, all as defined in the agreement. The Applicable Margin ranges from 1.50% to 2.25% for Adjusted LIBOR Rate Loans and from 0.50% to 1.25% for Alternative Base Rate Loans, depending on the Company's debt rating.Revolving Credit Agreement.

The Rail Facility bears interest at a variable rate and exposes us to interest rate risk. A 1.0% change in the interest rate associated with the borrowings outstanding under this facility would result in a $1.5 million change in our interest expense, assuming the $150.0 million available under the Rail Facility were fully drawn.annually.
We also have interest rate exposure in connection with our Statoil crude oil agreement and J. Aron Inventory Intermediation Agreements under which we pay a time value of money charge based on LIBOR.

Credit Risk
We are subject to risk of losses resulting from nonpayment or nonperformance by our counterparties. We will continue to closely monitor the creditworthiness of customers to whom we grant credit and establish credit limits in accordance with our credit policy.

We continually monitor our market risk exposure, including the impact and developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic which has introduced significant volatility in the financial markets.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Delaware City Rail Terminal and DCR West Rack are collocated with the Delaware City refinery, and are located in Delaware's coastal zone where certain activities are regulated under the Delaware Coastal Zone act. On June 14, 2013, two administrative appeals were filed by the Sierra Club and Delaware Audubon (collectively the "Appellants") regarding an air permit Delaware City Refining Company LLC ("Delaware City Refining" or "DCR") obtained to allow loading of crude oil onto barges. The appeals allege that both the loading of crude oil onto barges and the operation of the Delaware City Rail Terminal violate Delaware’s Coastal Zone Act. The first appeal is Number 2013-1 before the State Coastal Zone Industrial Control Board (the “CZ Board”), and the second appeal is before the Environmental Appeals Board (the "EAB") and appeals Secretary’s Order No. 2013-A-0020. The CZ Board held a hearing on the first appeal on July 16, 2013, and ruled in favor of Delaware City Refining and the State of Delaware and dismissed the Appellants’ appeal for lack of standing. The Appellants appealed that decision to the Delaware Superior Court, New Castle County, Case No. N13A-09-001 ALR, and Delaware City Refining and the State of Delaware filed cross-appeals. A hearing on the second appeal before the EAB, case no. 2013-06, was held on January 13, 2014, and the EAB ruled in favor of DCR and the State and dismissed the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. The Appellants also filed a Notice of Appeal with the Superior Court appealing the EAB’s decision. On March 31, 2015 the Superior Court affirmed the decisions by both the CZ Board and the EAB stating they both lacked jurisdiction to rule on the Appellants' appeal. The Appellants appealed to the Delaware Supreme Court, and, on November 5, 2015, the Supreme Court affirmed the Superior Court decision.
On July 24, 2013,December 28, 2016, the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control ("DNREC"issued the Coastal Zone Act permit for the ethanol project (the “Ethanol Permit”) to DCR allowing the utilization of existing tanks and existing marine loading equipment at their existing facilities to enable denatured ethanol to be loaded from storage tanks to marine vessels and shipped to offsite facilities. On January 13, 2017, the issuance of the Ethanol Permit was appealed by two environmental groups. On February 27, 2017, the Coastal Zone Industrial Control Board (the “Coastal Zone Board”) held a public hearing and dismissed the appeal, determining that the appellants did not have standing. The appellants filed an appeal of the Coastal Zone Board’s decision with the Delaware Superior Court (the “Superior Court”) on March 30, 2017. On January 19, 2018, the Superior Court rendered an Opinion regarding the decision of the Coastal Zone Board to dismiss the appeal of the Ethanol Permit for the ethanol project. The judge determined that the record created by the Coastal Zone Board was insufficient for the Superior Court to make a decision, and therefore remanded the case back to the Coastal Zone Board to address the deficiency in the record. Specifically, the Superior Court directed the Coastal Zone Board to address any evidence concerning whether the appellants’ claimed injuries would be affected by the increased quantity of ethanol shipments. On remand, the Coastal Zone Board met on January 28, 2019 and reversed its previous decision on standing ruling that the appellants have standing to appeal the issuance of the Ethanol Permit. The parties to the action filed a joint motion with the Coastal Zone Board, requesting that the Coastal Zone Board concur with the parties’ proposal to secure from the Superior Court confirmation that all rights and claims are preserved for any subsequent appeal to the Superior Court, and that the matter then be scheduled for a hearing on the merits before the Coastal Zone Board. The Coastal Zone Board notified the parties in January of 2020 that it concurred with the parties’ proposed course of action. The appellants and DCR subsequently filed a motion with the Superior Court requesting relief consistent with what was described to the Coastal Zone Board. In March of 2020, the Superior Court issued a letter relinquishing jurisdiction over the matter, and concurring with the parties’ proposal to allow the case to proceed to a hearing on the merits before the Coastal Zone Board. The parties must now jointly propose to the Coastal Zone Board a schedule for prehearing activity and a merits hearing to resolve the matter. The parties must, therefore, submit to the Coastal Zone Board a joint proposed schedule to govern future proceedings related to the merits hearing to resolve the matter.
On September 11, 2020, DCR received two Citations and Notification of Penalties, with sub-parts, from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration of the U.S. Department of Labor (“OSHA”) related to a combustion incident occurring on March 11, 2020. The citation seeks to impose penalties in the amount of $401,923 related to alleged violations of the Occupation Safety and Health Act of 1970. An informal conference with OSHA on October 2, 2020 was unsuccessful in resolving the matter, and, as a result, DCR filed a Notice of Administrative Penalty Assessment and Secretary’s Order to Delaware City Refining for alleged air emission violations that occurred duringContest with OSHA contesting the re-startcitations in their entirety at the end of the refineryinformal conference. OSHA filed its Complaint on December 13, 2020, and DCR filed its response on January 4, 2021. OSHA and DCR participated in 2011mandatory meditation on February 2, 2021, which was unsuccessful. On February 25, 2021, the Occupational Safety and subsequentHealth Review Commission granted the parties’ Joint Motion for Additional Time for the Parties to Discuss Settlement. The Court has since granted multiple additional extensions. On May 27, 2021, the re-start. The penalty assessment seeks $460,200 in penaltiesparties notified the court that settlement negotiations are continuing and $69,030 in cost recovery for DNREC’s expenses associatedhave continued to provide updates on the settlement negotiations; if the settlement negotiations are unsuccessful, the matter will proceed to litigation.

In connection with investigationthe acquisition of the incidents. We disputeTorrance refinery and related logistics assets, we assumed certain pre-existing environmental liabilities related to certain environmental remediation obligations to address existing soil and groundwater contamination and monitoring activities, which reflect the amountestimated cost of the penalty assessment and allegations maderemediation obligations. In addition, in the order, and are in discussions with DNREC to resolve the assessment.
As of November 1, 2015, the Company acquired Chalmette Refining, which is in discussionsconnection with the Louisiana Departmentacquisition of Environmental Quality ("LDEQ")the Torrance refinery and related logistics assets, we purchased a ten-year, $100.0 million environmental insurance policy to resolve self-reported deviations from refinery operations relating toinsure against unknown environmental liabilities. Furthermore, in connection with the acquisition, we assumed responsibility for certain Clean Air Act Title V permit conditions, limits and other requirementsspecified environmental matters that occurred prior to our ownership of the refinery and logistics assets, including specified incidents and/or Notices of Violations (“NOVs”) issued by regulatory agencies in various years before our ownership, including the South Coast Air Quality Management District (“SCAQMD”) and the Division of Occupational Safety and Health of the State of California (“Cal/OSHA”).
Subsequent to the acquisition, further NOVs were issued by the Company. LDEQ commenced an enforcement action against Chalmette Refining onSCAQMD, Cal/OSHA, the City of Torrance, the City of Torrance Fire Department, and the Los Angeles County Sanitation District related to alleged operational violations, emission discharges and/or flaring incidents at the refinery and the logistics assets both before and after our acquisition. EPA in November 14, 2014 by issuing2016 conducted a Consolidated Compliance OrderRisk Management Plan (“RMP”) inspection following the acquisition related to Torrance operations and Noticeissued preliminary findings in March 2017 concerning RMP potential operational violations. Since EPA’s issuance of Potential Penalty ("CCO/NOPP") covering deviations from 2009the preliminary findings in March 2017, we have been in substantive discussions to resolve the preliminary findings. Effective January 9, 2020, we and 2010. Chalmette Refining and LDEQ subsequentlyEPA entered into a dispute resolution agreement,Consent Agreement and Final Order (“CAFO”), effective as of January 9, 2020, which suspends enforcementcontains no admission by us for any alleged violations in the CAFO, includes a release from all alleged violations in the CAFO, required the payment of a penalty of $125,000 in January 2020 and also requires the implementation of a supplemental environmental project (“SEP”) of at least $219,000 that must be completed by December 15, 2021. The SEP will consist of configuring the northeast fire water monitor to automatically deploy water upon detection of a release.
EPA and the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (“DTSC”) in December 2016 conducted a Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”) inspection following the acquisition related to Torrance operations and also issued in March 2017 preliminary findings concerning RCRA potential operational violations. On June 14, 2018, the Torrance refinery and DTSC reached settlement regarding the oil-bearing materials. Following this settlement, in June 2018, DTSC referred the remaining alleged RCRA violations from EPA’s and DTSC’s December 2016 inspection to the California Attorney General. On April 7, 2021, we were notified that these alleged remaining six federal RCRA violations had been referred to EPA for resolution. The alleged remaining state RCRA violation is still pending with the California Attorney General.
On February 4, 2021, we received a letter from the SCAQMD proposing to settle a NOV relating to Title V deviations alleged to have occurred in the second half of 2017 for $1.3 million. We are evaluating the allegations and will be communicating with the SCAQMD regarding the allegations and potential resolution.
On December 4, 2020, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection ("PaDEP") issued a draft Consent Order and Agreement to PBF Logistics Products Terminals LLC with respect to two alleged violations at the Philadelphia terminal for failure to: 1) test and inspect regulated piping as required in accordance with industry standards; and 2) have a professional engineering certification that all above ground storage tanks meet the applicable performance standards and requirements as a result of an alleged release of oil on January 10, 2020 into the Schuylkill River resulting from a pipe leak that was not contained by emergency containment structure. The draft order included a proposed penalty of $800,000. We are currently communicating with the PaDEP regarding the allegations and the settlement offer.
As the ultimate outcomes of the CCO/NOPP while negotiationsmatters discussed above are ongoing. It is possible that LDEQ will assess an administrative penalty against Chalmette Refining,uncertain, we cannot currently estimate the final amount or timing of their resolution but any such amount is not expected to behave a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, individually or in the aggregate.

On February 17, 2017, in Arnold Goldstein, et al. v. Exxon Mobil Corporation, et al., we and PBF LLC, and our subsidiaries, PBF Western Region LLC and Torrance Refining Company LLC and the manager of our Torrance refinery along with ExxonMobil were named as defendants in a class action and representative action complaint filed on behalf of Arnold Goldstein, John Covas, Gisela Janette La Bella and others similarly situated. The complaint was filed in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles and alleges negligence, strict liability, ultra-hazardous activity, a continuing private nuisance, a permanent private nuisance, a continuing public nuisance, a permanent public nuisance and trespass resulting from the February 18, 2015 electrostatic precipitator (“ESP”) explosion at the Torrance refinery which was then owned and operated by ExxonMobil. The operation of the Torrance refinery by the PBF entities subsequent to our acquisition in July 2016 is also referenced in the complaint. To the extent that plaintiffs’ claims relate to the Company.ESP explosion, ExxonMobil retained responsibility for any liabilities that would arise from the lawsuit pursuant to the agreement relating to the acquisition of the Torrance refinery. On July 2, 2018, the court granted leave to plaintiffs’ to file a Second Amended Complaint alleging groundwater contamination. With the filing of the Second Amended Complaint, plaintiffs’ added an additional plaintiff, Hany Youssef. On March 18, 2019, the class certification hearing was held and the court took the matter under submission. On April 1, 2019, the court issued an order denying class certification. On April 15, 2019, plaintiffs filed a Petition for Permission to Appeal the Order Denying Motion for Class Certification. On May 3, 2019, plaintiffs filed a Motion with the Central District Court for Leave to File a Renewed Motion for Class Certification. On May 22, 2019, the judge granted plaintiffs’ motion. We filed our opposition to the motion on July 29, 2019. The plaintiffs’ motion was heard on September 23, 2019. On October 15, 2019, the judge granted certification to two limited classes of property owners with Youssef as the sole class representative and named plaintiff, rejecting two other proposed subclasses based on negligence and on strict liability for ultrahazardous activities. The certified subclasses relate to trespass claims for ground contamination and nuisance for air emissions. On February 5, 2021, our motion for Limited Extension of Discovery Cut-Off and a Motion by plaintiffs for Leave to File Third Amended Complaint were heard by the court. On February 9, 2021, the court issued an order taking both motions under submission pending additional discovery and briefing related to plaintiff Youssef and whether a new class representative should be substituted. The court has also ordered that the rebuttal expert disclosure deadline, the expert discovery cut-off, the motion hearing cut-off, and all other case deadlines be stayed pending the court’s decision as to whether the case can proceed with a new class representative and whether defendants will be permitted to conduct additional soil vapor sampling in the ground subclass area. On March 6, 2021, plaintiff Youssef’s second deposition was taken. On March 22, 2021, based on plaintiff Youssef’s deposition, we filed our brief requesting the court dismiss plaintiff Youssef’s claims for nuisance and trespass and deny plaintiffs’ motion for leave to file a third amended complaint to substitute a new named plaintiff or class representative. On April 5, 2021, plaintiffs filed a brief regarding their motion. On May 5, 2021, the Court granted plaintiffs leave to amend their complaint for the third time to substitute Navarro for Youssef. On May 12, 2021, plaintiffs filed their Third Amended Complaint (TAC) that contained significant changes and new claims, including individual claims, that were not included in the motion for leave to amend plaintiffs presented to the Court. On June 9, 2021, we filed a Motion to Dismiss/Strike the TAC. On June 23, 2021, plaintiffs filed their opposition to our Motion to Dismiss/Strike, to which we filed our reply on July 2, 2021. The current discovery cut off related to Navarro is August 20, 2021 and we have served interrogatories and requests for documents on plaintiffs. There is currently no pending hearing date for the Motion to Dismiss or a trial date. We presently believe the outcome will not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

On September 7, 2018, in Jeprece Roussell, et al. v. PBF Consultants, LLC, et al., the plaintiff filed an action in the 19th Judicial District Court for the Parish of East Baton Rouge, alleging numerous causes of action, including wrongful death, premises liability, negligence, and gross negligence against PBF Holding, PBFX Operating Company LLC, Chalmette Refining, two individual employees of the Chalmette refinery (the “PBF Defendants”), two entities, PBF Consultants, LLC (“PBF Consultants”) and PBF Investments LLC (“PBF Investments”) that are Louisiana companies that are not associated with our companies, as well as Clean Harbors, Inc. and Clean Harbors Environmental Services, Inc. (collectively, “Clean Harbors”), Mr. Roussell’s employer. Mr. Roussell was fatally injured on March 31, 2018 while employed by Clean Harbors and performing clay removal work activities inside a clay treating vessel located at the Chalmette refinery. Plaintiff seeks unspecified compensatory damages for pain and suffering, past and future mental anguish, impairment, past and future economic loss, attorney’s fees and court costs. On September 25, 2018, the PBF Defendants filed an answer in the state court action denying the allegations. On October 10, 2018, the PBF Defendants filed to remove the case to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Louisiana. On November 9, 2018, plaintiff filed a motion to remand the matter back to state court and the PBF Defendants filed a response on November 30, 2018. On April 15, 2019, the Federal Magistrate Judge filed a Report and Recommendation denying plaintiff’s motion to remand and dismissing without prejudice the claims against John Sprafka, Wayne LaCombe, PBF Consultants and PBF Investments. On June 24, 2019, the Federal Judge adopted the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation denying plaintiff’s motion to remand and dismissing without prejudice the claims against John Sprafka, Wayne LaCombe, PBF Consultants and PBF Investments. On September 18, 2020, the Federal Magistrate Judge granted plaintiff’s motion to amend in order to add a non-diverse plaintiff and remand to state court. PBF Defendants filed an opposition to plaintiff’s motion to amend on October 2, 2020. On October 5, 2020, the Magistrate Judge granted plaintiff’s motion to amend and remanded the case back to state court. Discovery will continue in state court. We cannot currently estimate the amount or the timing of the resolution of this matter. The PBF Defendants previously issued a tender of defense and indemnity to Clean Harbors and its insurer pursuant to indemnity obligations contained in the associated services agreement. Clean Harbors has accepted the tender of defense and indemnity, and Clean Harbors’ insurer has accepted the tender of defense and indemnity subject to a reservation of rights. We filed a motion for summary judgment on July 19, 2021. A mediation was held on July 21, 2021 and trial is scheduled for September 27, 2021. In light of our indemnity and our insurance coverage, we presently believe the outcome will not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
We are subject to obligations to purchase RINs. On February 15, 2017, we received notification that EPA records indicated that PBF Holding used potentially invalid RINs that were in fact verified under EPA’s RIN Quality Assurance Program (“QAP”) by an independent auditor as QAP A RINs. Under the regulations use of potentially invalid QAP A RINs provides the user with an affirmative defense from civil penalties, provided certain conditions are met. We have asserted the affirmative defense and, if accepted by EPA, will not be required to replace these RINs and will not be subject to civil penalties under the program. It is reasonably possible that EPA will not accept our defense and may assess penalties in these matters, but any such amount is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (“CERCLA”), also known as “Superfund,” imposes liability, without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct, on certain classes of persons who are considered to be responsible for the release of a “hazardous substance” into the environment. These persons include the current or former owner or operator of the disposal site or sites where the release occurred and companies that disposed of or arranged for the disposal of the hazardous substances. Under CERCLA, such persons may be subject to joint and several liability for investigation and the costs of cleaning up the hazardous substances that have been released into the environment, for damages to natural resources and for the costs of certain health studies. As discussed more fully above, certain of our sites are subject to these laws and we may be held liable for investigation and remediation costs or claims for natural resource damages. It is not uncommon for neighboring landowners and other third parties to file claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by hazardous substances or other pollutants released into the environment. Analogous state laws impose similar responsibilities and liabilities on responsible parties. In our current normal operations, we have generated waste, some of which falls within the statutory definition of a “hazardous substance” and some of which may have been disposed of at sites that may require cleanup under Superfund.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
The following risk factor supplements and/or updates the risk factor previously disclosed in "”Item 1A. Risk FactorsFactors” of our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
There have been no material changes fromWe may incur significant liability under, or costs and capital expenditures to comply with, environmental and health and safety regulations, which are complex and change frequently.
Our operations are subject to federal, state and local laws regulating, among other things, the risk factors discloseduse and/or handling of petroleum and other regulated materials, the emission and discharge of materials into the environment, waste management, and remediation of discharges of petroleum and petroleum products, characteristics and composition of gasoline and distillates and other matters otherwise relating to the protection of the environment and the health and safety of the surrounding community. Our operations are also subject to extensive laws and regulations relating to occupational health and safety.
We cannot predict what additional environmental, health and safety legislation or regulations may be adopted in the section entitled "Risk Factors"future, or how existing or future laws or regulations may be administered or interpreted with respect to our operations. Many of these laws and regulations have become increasingly stringent over time, and the cost of compliance with these requirements can be expected to increase over time. For example, on July 21, 2021, the board of BAAQMD voted to adopt PAR 6-5 requiring compliance with more stringent standards for particulate emissions from FCC units at refineries in the Prospectus.Bay Area by 2026. The regulation does not require that any specific technology be utilized to meet the new standards.The costs incurred by us to achieve the new emissions standards at our Martinez refinery within the required timeframe may be significant, and there can be no assurance that the measures we implement will achieve the required emissions reductions.

Certain environmental laws impose strict, and in certain circumstances, joint and several, liability for costs of investigation and cleanup of spills, discharges or releases on owners and operators of, as well as persons who arrange for treatment or disposal of regulated materials at, contaminated sites. Under these laws, we may incur liability or be required to pay penalties for past contamination, and third parties may assert claims against us for damages allegedly arising out of any past or future contamination. The potential penalties and clean-up costs for past or future spills, discharges or releases, the failure of prior owners of our facilities to complete their clean-up obligations, the liability to third parties for damage to their property, or the need to address newly-discovered information or conditions that may require a response could be significant, and the payment of these amounts could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
