**Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.**

*Sale and Leaseback Transaction*

On July 25, 2025, Calumet Shreveport Refining, LLC ("Calumet Shreveport"), a subsidiary of Calumet, Inc. (the "Company"), entered into a Property Schedule No. 2 ("Property Schedule No. 2") with Stonebriar Commercial Finance LLC ("Stonebriar"). Property Schedule No. 2 supplements the Master Lease Agreement, dated as of February 12, 2021 (the "Master Lease" and, together with Property Schedule No. 2, the "Lease Agreement"), among Calumet Shreveport and Stonebriar. The Lease Agreement relates to a sale and leaseback transaction (the "Sale and Leaseback Transaction") whereby Calumet Shreveport sold and leased back certain of its property comprising the Shreveport refinery fuels terminal, truck rack and related piping and equipment for consideration of approximately $120 million. The assets sold and leased back do not include any fuels or specialty production inventory. The Lease Agreement has a seven-year term and requires Calumet Shreveport to make monthly rental payments of approximately $1.8 million, which represents a cost of capital of approximately 10.75% per year. The Lease Agreement provides that, subject to certain conditions, Calumet Shreveport may terminate the lease and repurchase the leased assets after a term of six years for consideration of approximately $42 million. Concurrently with Calumet Shreveport's entry into the Lease Agreement, the Company reaffirmed a Continuing Guaranty in favor of Stonebriar, pursuant to which the Company guarantees to Stonebriar the performance of Calumet Shreveport's obligations under the Lease Agreement.

Concurrently with the entry into the Lease Agreement, Calumet Shreveport and Stonebriar terminated Property Schedule No. 1, dated as of February 12, 2021 ("Property Schedule No. 1"), among Calumet Shreveport and Stonebriar. The Company applied approximately $40 million of the proceeds of the Sale and Leaseback Transaction to pay all of Calumet Shreveport's outstanding obligations under Property Schedule No. 1.

The foregoing description of Property Schedule No. 2 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of Property Schedule No. 2, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

*Eighth Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement* 

On July 25, 2025, in connection with the Sale and Leaseback Transaction, the Company entered into the Eighth Amendment (the "Eighth Amendment") to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The Eighth Amendment amended the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of February 23, 2018 (the "Credit Agreement"), by and among Calumet GP, LLC, Calumet Specialty Products Partners, L.P. (the "Partnership"), certain subsidiaries of the Company party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. Among other changes, the Eighth Amendment modified the Credit Agreement to permit separately the indebtedness and liens arising from the Sale and Leaseback Transaction as modified by Property Schedule No. 2.

The foregoing description of the Eighth Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Eighth Amendment, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Aron & Company LLC ("J. Aron") and the other parties thereto. The Third Amendment amended the Monetization Master Agreement, dated as of January 17, 2024 (the "Monetization Master Agreement"), among the Partnership, J. Aron and certain subsidiaries of the Partnership. Among other changes, the Third Amendment modified the Monetization Master Agreement to permit separately the indebtedness and liens arising from the Sale and Leaseback Transaction as modified by Property Schedule No. 2.

## Exhibit 99.1

**Exhibit 99.1**

**Calumet Announces $120 million Extension with Stonebriar**

*Company Intends to Use Proceeds to Partially Redeem its Senior Notes due 2026*

**INDIANAPOLIS— (PR NEWSWIRE)** — July 28, 2025 — Calumet, Inc. (NASDAQ: CLMT) ("Calumet" or the "Company") announced today that it has extended its Shreveport terminal asset financing arrangement with Stonebriar Commercial Finance LLC ("Stonebriar"). This transaction increases the assigned value of these terminal assets to $120 million and will provide $80 million of proceeds to Calumet, the difference between the new value of the assets and the remaining $40 million balance on the prior schedule. The previous sale leaseback agreement originally valued these assets at $70 million, which were scheduled to be repurchased in February 2027. This transaction carries a cost of capital of 10.75%, and net proceeds will be used to reduce Calumet's outstanding 11.00% Senior Notes due 2026 ("2026 Notes"). Further, Calumet has delivered a notice for a partial redemption of $80 million aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 2026 Notes at a redemption price of par, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date of August 12, 2025.

"Stonebriar continues to be a valued partner to Calumet," said Todd Borgmann, CEO. "The substantial value increase recognized through this transaction is a result of our Shreveport team's relentless focus on improving the reliability and throughput of our facility, and we look forward to continuing to build upon the operational progress made at this important site."

For more information, please see our Current Report on Form 8-K that will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

The words "will," "may," "intend," "believe," "expect," "outlook," "forecast," "anticipate," "estimate," "continue," "plan," "should," "could," "would," or other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, which are generally not historical in nature.
