Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On June 20, 2016, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Alon USA Partners GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”) and the general partner of Alon USA Partners, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Registrant”), appointed Yeshayahu Pery as a director. There are no arrangements or understanding between Mr. Pery and any other person pursuant to which he was elected as a director. Mr. Pery does not have a material interest in any transaction to which the Company, the Registrant, or any of their subsidiaries are a party.

Mr. Pery served as a director of Alon USA Energy, Inc. from 2003 to 2016 and of Alon Israel Oil Company, Ltd. from 1997 until 2010. He is Chairman of MIGAL INC., a technology institute in the biotechnology field, a position he has held since 1998. From 1997 until 2004, Mr. Pery served as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Galilee Cooperative Organization, a purchasing and finance organization of the Kibbutz movement. In addition, Mr. Pery served as Chairman of Agricultural Insurance Association and the Atudot pension fund between 1995 and 2004. The Board has concluded that Mr. Pery’s experience gained while serving as a director on a number of companies’ boards, including several chairman positions, qualifies him to serve as a member of the Board.
