USD Partners LP (NYSE: USDP) (the “Partnership”) announced today that it has entered into an agreement (the “Waiver Extension Agreement”) with the lenders and administrative agent under its existing Credit Agreement to, among other things, extend the forbearance period as provided in the previously announced amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated as of August 8, 2023, from its original expiration date of October 10, 2023 to November 3, 2023 (the “New Expiration Date”). Pursuant to the Waiver Extension Agreement, the lenders and administrative agent have agreed to continue to forbear until the New Expiration Date from exercising any rights or remedies arising from certain defaults or events of defaults asserted by the administrative agent and to temporarily waive certain events of default arising from the non-payment of interest due on October 10, 2023 until the New Expiration Date.

“We are pleased to have worked cooperatively with our lenders to achieve a further extension of the forbearance under our Credit Agreement,” said Adam Altsuler, the Partnership’s Chief Financial Officer. “We look forward to working constructively with our bank group to secure a longer-term solution over the next few weeks while also advancing several ongoing commercial discussions that could benefit the Partnership in the near future.”

Additional details regarding the terms of the Waiver Extension Agreement will be provided in the Partnership’s related Current Report on Form 8-K that will be filed with the SEC.
