We expect the transaction will simplify our corporate capital structure and deliver several important benefits to our shareholders."He added, "The elimination of Rose Rock's incentive distribution structure coupled with Rose Rock's fee-based cash flows from strong investment grade counterparties will help drive SemGroup's strategic growth plans. We anticipate that Rose Rock's businesses, already managed by SemGroup, will enhance our combined credit profile, dividend coverage, and future dividend growth rate beyond 2016."Both the companies clarified that the transaction would be a taxable event to Rose Rock unitholders with recognition of gain or loss in the same manner as if they had sold their Rose Rock units for cash equivalent to the fair market value of the SemGroup shares received.

The companies indicated that all of the outstanding common units of Rose Rock would be owned by SemGroup once the transaction is completed. As a result, Rose Rock would no longer be publicly traded and related IDRs would be eliminated. SEMG Closed with a gain of 4.06 percent while RRMS edged higher by 10.29 percent on Friday.
