EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 amends and restates the Current Report on Form 8-K previously filed by the registrant, Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P., on May 19, 2011, and is being filed solely to correct an error in the Item Numbers referred to therein. The reference to: “Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets” in the previous filing was incorrect. The correct reference is to: “Item 8.01. Other Events,” as indicated hereinbelow.

 

Item 8.01.

Other Events.

Effective May 16, 2011, Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P. (the “Partnership”) acquired a controlling interest in Inland Corporation through a series of transactions. Inland Corporation consists of an active 350-mile refined products pipeline and related facilities in Ohio that serve multiple Ohio refineries and terminal markets. The aggregate purchase price for all of the interests acquired was approximately $100 million, which was financed by borrowings under the Partnership’s revolving credit facilities pending more permanent financing. As a result of these transactions, Sunoco Logistics now owns an 83.8 percent economic interest and a 70 percent voting interest in Inland Corporation.

Attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 is a copy of the Company’s related press release dated May 17, 2011, which is incorporated by reference herein.
