EXPLANATORY NOTE — DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates to the following Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”), originally filed by PBF Logistics LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“PBFX”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission:

•

Registration Statement No. 333-259629 on Form S-3, filed on September 17, 2021, registering common units representing limited partner interests in PBFX (“PBFX Common Units,” and the holders of PBFX Common Units, the “PBFX Unitholders”), preferred units representing limited partner interests in PBFX, warrants to purchase PBFX Common Units or preferred units, and rights to purchase PBFX Common Units, preferred units and warrants to purchase Common Units or preferred units (collectively, the “Securities”).

On November 30, 2022, the PBFX Unitholders approved the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 27, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among PBF Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“PBF Energy”), PBF Energy Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and subsidiary of PBF Energy (“PBF LLC”), PBFX Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of PBF LLC (“PBFX Holdings”), Riverlands Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of PBF LLC (“Merger Sub”), PBFX and PBF Logistics GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the general partner of PBFX, including the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger (as defined below). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (i) PBF LLC acquired all of the outstanding PBFX Common Units other than PBFX Common Units held directly or indirectly by PBF Energy and its subsidiaries (all such PBFX Common Units previously held by persons other than PBF Energy and its subsidiaries, the “PBFX Public Common Units), and (ii) Merger Sub merged with and into PBFX, with PBFX surviving the merger as an indirect subsidiary of PBF Energy, owned 99% by PBF LLC and 1% by PBFX Holdings (the “Merger”).

The Merger became effective on November 30, 2022, upon the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Effective Time”). At the Effective Time, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each outstanding PBFX Public Common Unit was converted into the right to receive: (i) 0.270 of a share of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of PBF Energy (the “PBF Energy Common Stock”), (ii) $9.25 in cash, without interest, and (iii) any cash in lieu of fractional shares of PBF Energy Common Stock to which the holder thereof became entitled to upon surrender of such PBFX Public Common Units in accordance with the Merger Agreement.

In connection with the completion of the Merger, PBFX terminated all offerings of securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. In accordance with undertakings made by PBFX in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the Securities that had been registered for issuance that remain unsold at the termination of such offering, PBFX hereby removes from registration all of such securities of PBFX registered but unsold under the Registration Statement.
