3. Limited Partnership

GPMP commenced its operation in January 2016, and thereafter the following has applied:

i.
Fuel distribution agreements – GPMP is a party to the majority of the agreements with fuel suppliers relating to the supply of fuel to GPM and its subsidiaries in the retail and wholesale segments, and GPM guarantees the obligations under certain of such agreements.
ii.
Distribution agreement with GPM – GPM and its subsidiaries related to substantially all of its sites in the retail and wholesale segments are engaged with GPMP in an exclusive supply agreement pursuant to which they purchase fuel from GPMP at GPMP’s cost of fuel including taxes and transportation, plus a fixed margin. Such supply arrangements are in effect until May, 15, 2028 or with respect to sites acquired in June 2018 or later, for 10 years from the date of the applicable acquisition.
iii.
GPMP charges a fixed fee to sites in the fleet fueling segment and certain GPM sites which are not supplied by GPMP.

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, GPM, directly and through certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries, held approximately 99.8% of the limited partnership interests in GPMP and all of the rights in the general partner of GPMP.

The Riiser Seller owed GPM approximately $3.375 million with respect to a post-closing adjustment, in addition to other amounts, including interest and expenses, at December 31, 2023. The Riiser Seller satisfied $3.0 million of such adjustment by tendering all of its limited partnership units in GPMP to GPM in January 2024. As a result, GPM, directly and through certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries, now holds 100% of the limited partnership interests in GPMP.
