Our strong affiliations with the major oil brands, coupled with our unique business model and talented team, formed the necessary foundation to launch our MLP – and position us for growth. 

And we wasted no time in growing, placing the IPO investment to work rapidly and productively. 

## An active initial quarter 

By the end of 2012 – just two months after the company went public – LGP had closed on two strategic acquisitions, adding 69 locations – 45 from Express Lane in Florida’s Panhandle region and 24 from Dunmore and JoJo oil companies in northeast Pennsylvania – which increased our total sites to 782, expanded our geographic footprint to include Florida and added Chevron to our portfolio of global oil brands. 

Strategic expansion is always on our minds. We are constantly analyzing opportunities to increase LGP’s motor-fuel outlets and real-estate holdings in our current markets as well as add new ones. In addition, we continuously explore adding alternative-fuel options at compatible sites, such as the compressed natural gas (CNG) we offer at some of our locations.

Even as we expand, LGP will remain a community- minded company. Our corporate headquarters in Allentown, Pa., sits in the middle of one of the largest urban revitalization projects in the United States. Our belief in the renewal of this great American city led us to relocate here in late 2011, and we’re proud to play a role in Allentown’s growing success. 

Together, we can look forward to an exciting 2013 from a community aspect and a growth aspect as well. LGP will continue to work diligently and strategically to grow the company for you, our unitholders. I appreciate the trust you have placed in me and LGP. I welcome all of you to our team.
