Alon USA Partners Provides Operational Update

DALLAS, Texas, June 3, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Alon USA Partners, LP (NYSE: ALDW) ("Alon Partners") today announced that the Big Spring refinery experienced an unplanned shutdown on May 30, 2016 due to a power outage caused by inclement weather. The power outage affected multiple units, which we are working to safely return to service. We now expect total throughput at the Big Spring refinery to average approximately 70,000 barrels per day for the second quarter of 2016.

Despite the power outage, we still expect to generate sufficient cash to support a distribution for the second quarter.
