Marathon Petroleum
We are an independent petroleum refining, marketing and transportation company. We currently own and operate seven refineries,
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1510295/000119312514331877/d772396d424b5.htm[9/4/2014 4:19:13 PM]

all located in the United States, with an aggregate crude oil refining capacity of approximately 1.7 million barrels per calendar day. Our
refineries supply refined products to resellers and consumers within our market areas, including the Midwest, Gulf Coast and Southeast
regions of the United States. We distribute refined products to our customers through one of the largest private domestic fleets of inland
petroleum product barges, one of the largest terminal operations in the United States, and a combination of MPC-owned and third-party-
owned trucking and rail assets. We currently own, lease or have ownership interests in approximately 8,300 miles of crude oil and refined
product pipelines to deliver crude oil to our refineries and other locations and refined products to wholesale and retail market areas. We are
one of the largest petroleum pipeline companies in the United States on the basis of total volumes delivered.
Our operations consist of three reportable operating segments: Refining & Marketing; Speedway; and Pipeline Transportation. Each
of these segments is organized and managed based upon the nature of the products and services it offers.

·
Refining & Marketing--refines crude oil and other feedstocks at our seven refineries in the Gulf Coast and Midwest regions
of the United States, purchases ethanol and refined products for resale and distributes refined products through various means,

including barges, terminals and trucks that we own or operate. We sell refined products to wholesale marketing customers
domestically and internationally, buyers on the spot market, our Speedway® business segment and to independent
entrepreneurs who operate Marathon® retail outlets;

·
Speedway--sells transportation fuels and convenience products in the retail market in the Midwest, primarily through

Speedway convenience stores; and

·
Pipeline Transportation--transports crude oil and other feedstocks to our refineries and other locations, delivers refined
products to wholesale and retail market areas and includes the aggregated operations of MPLX LP, a master limited

partnership in which MPC owns a 73.6% interest (including a two percent general partnership interest), and MPC's retained
pipeline assets and investments.
Our principal executive offices are located at 539 South Main Street, Findlay, Ohio 45840-3229, and our telephone number at that
location is (419) 422-2121.
The Acquisition
On May 21, 2014, Speedway entered into a definitive Purchase Agreement, which we refer to as the "Purchase Agreement," with
Hess Corporation, pursuant to which Speedway has agreed to purchase from Hess Corporation all of the outstanding membership interests of
Hess Retail.
The Acquisition incorporates all of Hess Corporation's retail locations, transport operations and shipper history on various pipelines,
including approximately 40,000 barrels per day on Colonial Pipeline. The total


S-1
Table of Contents
consideration to be paid by Speedway for Hess Retail is expected to be $2.874 billion, including $274 million of capitalized leases and an
estimated $230 million of working capital. The Acquisition is expected to close in 2014, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing
conditions. We cannot provide any assurances that we will complete the Acquisition.
Hess Corporation is the largest operator of convenience stores along the East Coast region of the United States and the fifth largest in
the United States by number of company-operated sites, with approximately 1,250 stores located in 16 states. Speedway is the United States'
fourth-largest convenience store chain by number of company-owned and -operated sites, with approximately 1,490 stores located in nine
states. The addition of Hess Retail's stores to the Speedway network of sites will broaden Speedway's geographic footprint and is expected to
position Speedway as the premier convenience store operator in the eastern United States.
We intend to finance the Acquisition, including the payment of related fees and expenses, with cash on hand, borrowings under our
new term loan agreement and the net proceeds from this offering. See "Description of Other Indebtedness--New Term Loan Agreement" for a
discussion of the new term loan agreement.

Certain covenants
The indenture includes covenants that will, among other things, limit our ability and the ability
of our subsidiaries to create or permit to exist mortgages and other liens with respect to principal
properties, enter into sale and leaseback transactions with respect to principal properties and
merge or consolidate with any other entity or sell or convey all or substantially all of our assets,
and will require us to provide certain information to the trustee (as defined below) and holders of
the notes. These covenants will be subject to a number of important qualifications and
limitations. See "Description of the Notes."

will be limited initially to $400,000,000 in aggregate principal amount. We may, however, "re-
open" each series of notes and issue an unlimited aggregate principal amount of additional notes
of that series without the consent of the holders of the notes.

Beneficial interests in the notes will trade in DTC's same-day funds settlement system until
maturity. Therefore, secondary market trading activity in such interests will be settled in
immediately available funds.

Risks Relating to this Offering and the Notes
Our existing and future debt may limit cash flow available to invest in the ongoing needs of our business and could prevent us from
fulfilling our obligations under our outstanding debt securities, as well as the notes.
We have substantial existing debt, and we expect our debt to increase significantly as a result of our financing of the Acquisition. As of
June 30, 2014, after giving effect to the Acquisition, the borrowing in full under the new term loan agreement and the issuance and sale of the

notes offered hereby, we would have had total debt of approximately $6.289 billion. We also have the capacity under our revolving credit
agreement (as defined herein), the trade receivables facility (as defined herein) and the MPLX credit agreement (as defined herein) to incur
substantial additional debt. Our level of debt could have important consequences. For example, it could:


·
make it more difficult for us to make payments on our debt;

·
require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to the payment of debt service, reducing the

availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, dividends, share repurchases and other
general corporate purposes;


·
increase our vulnerability to adverse economic or industry conditions;


·
limit our ability to obtain additional financing to enable us to react to changes in our business; or


·
place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to businesses in our industry that have less debt.
Additionally, any failure to meet required payments on our debt, or failure to comply with any covenants in the instruments governing
our debt, could result in an event of default under the terms of those instruments. In the event of such default, the holders of such debt could elect
to declare all the amounts outstanding under such instruments to be due and payable.
Changes in our credit ratings may adversely affect the value of the notes.
The ratings assigned to the notes could be lowered, suspended or withdrawn entirely by the rating agencies if, in each rating agency's
judgment, circumstances warrant. Actual or anticipated changes or downgrades in our credit ratings, including any announcement that our ratings
are under review for a downgrade, could affect the market value of the notes.
The indenture does not restrict the amount of additional debt that we and our affiliates may incur and the revolving credit agreement,
the new term loan agreement, the trade receivables facility and the MPLX credit agreement permit us and our affiliates to incur
substantial additional unsecured debt.
The notes and the indenture do not place any limitation on the amount of unsecured debt that we may incur and the revolving credit
agreement, the new term loan agreement, the trade receivables facility and the

MPLX credit agreement permit us and our affiliates to incur substantial additional unsecured debt. Our incurrence of additional debt, and the
incurrence of additional debt by any of our affiliates, may have important consequences for you as a holder of the notes, including making it more
difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to the notes, a loss in the market value of your notes and a risk that the credit rating of the
notes is lowered or withdrawn.
The terms of the notes do not require us to offer to repurchase the notes upon a "change of control" transaction.
The terms of the notes do not require us to offer to repurchase the notes upon a "change of control" transaction. Accordingly, holders
will not have the right to require us to repurchase the notes if we enter into transactions that result in a change of control of our company and a
decrease in the ratings of the notes. Our existing notes and certain other existing debt obligations provide such rights to holders of those
obligations.
We are a holding company and depend on dividends and other distributions from our subsidiaries.
MPC is a holding company with limited direct operations. Our principal assets are the equity interests that we hold in our subsidiaries.
As a result, we depend on dividends and other distributions from our subsidiaries to generate the funds necessary to meet our financial obligations,
including the payment of principal and interest on our outstanding indebtedness. Our subsidiaries are legally distinct from us and have no
obligation to pay amounts due on our indebtedness or to make funds available for such payment. In addition, our subsidiaries will be permitted
under the terms of the indenture to incur additional indebtedness that may restrict or prohibit the making of distributions, the payment of dividends
or the making of loans by such subsidiaries to us. We cannot assure you that the agreements governing the current and future indebtedness of our
subsidiaries will permit our subsidiaries to provide us with sufficient dividends, distributions or loans to fund payments on the notes when due.
Neither MPC nor any subsidiary of MPC has any property that has been determined to be a principal property under the indenture.
