The Plaintiff also seeks to have a class certified of all customers of the defendants in the United States who entered into protected price plan contracts and were denied the same contractual benefits and to be appointed to represent them. No class has yet been certified in this action. The Plaintiff seeks compensatory, punitive and other damages in unspecified amounts.

There is no guarantee of the exact number of units that will be purchased under the program and the Partnership may discontinue purchases at any time. The program does not have a time limit. The Board may also approve additional purchases of units from time to time in private transactions. The Partnership&#x2019;s repurchase activities take into account SEC safe harbor rules and guidance for issuer repurchases. All of the Common Units purchased in the repurchase program will be retired.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; WHITE-SPACE: normal; WORD-SPACING: 0px; TEXT-TRANSFORM: none; FONT-WEIGHT: normal; COLOR: rgb(0,0,0); FONT-STYLE: normal; ORPHANS: 2; WIDOWS: 2; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; LETTER-SPACING: normal; TEXT-INDENT: 4%; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial"> Under the Partnership&#x2019;s third amended and restated credit agreement dated July&#xA0;30, 2015, in order to repurchase Common Units we must maintain Availability (as defined in the amended and restated credit agreement) of $45&#xA0;million, 15.0% of the facility size of $300&#xA0;million (assuming the&#xA0;<font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap">non-seasonal</font>&#xA0;aggregate commitment is in effect) on a historical pro forma and forward-looking basis, and a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.15 measured as of the date of repurchase.

Depending on the risk being economically hedged, realized gains and losses are recorded in cost of product, cost of installations and services, or delivery and branch expenses.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 12px"> &#xA0;</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> As of March&#xA0;31, 2017, to hedge a substantial majority of the purchase price associated with heating oil gallons anticipated to be sold to its price-protected customers, the Partnership held the following derivative instruments that settle in future months to match anticipated sales: 8.0&#xA0;million gallons of swap contracts, 2.1&#xA0;million gallons of call options, 5.1&#xA0;million gallons of put options, and 52.1&#xA0;million net gallons of synthetic call options.

The Partnership assesses counterparty credit risk and considers it to be low. We maintain master netting arrangements that allow for the <font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap">non-conditional</font> offsetting of amounts receivable and payable with counterparties to help manage our risks and record derivative positions on a net basis. The Partnership generally does not receive cash collateral from its counterparties and does not restrict the use of cash collateral it maintains at counterparties. At March&#xA0;31, 2017, the aggregate cash posted as collateral in the normal course of business at counterparties was $1.0&#xA0;million, which was recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets. Positions with counterparties who are also parties to our credit agreement are collateralized under that facility. As of March&#xA0;31, 2017, $3.3&#xA0;million of hedge positions were secured under the credit facility.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> FASB ASC <font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap">820-10</font> Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, established a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which classified the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level&#xA0;1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; Level&#xA0;2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level&#xA0;3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. The Partnership&#x2019;s Level&#xA0;1 derivative assets and liabilities represent the fair value of commodity contracts used in its hedging activities that are identical and traded in active markets. The Partnership&#x2019;s Level&#xA0;2 derivative assets and liabilities represent the fair value of commodity contracts used in its hedging activities that are valued using either directly or indirectly observable inputs, whose nature, risk and class are similar. No significant transfers of assets or liabilities have been made into and out of the Level&#xA0;1 or Level&#xA0;2 tiers. All derivative instruments were <font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap">non-trading</font> positions and were either a Level&#xA0;1 or Level&#xA0;2 instrument. The Partnership had no Level&#xA0;3 derivative instruments. The fair market value of our Level&#xA0;1 and Level&#xA0;2 derivative assets and liabilities are calculated by our counter-parties and are independently validated by the Partnership. The Partnership&#x2019;s calculations are, for Level&#xA0;1 derivative assets and liabilities, based on the published New York Mercantile Exchange (&#x201C;NYMEX&#x201D;) market prices for the commodity contracts open at the end of the period. For Level&#xA0;2 derivative assets and liabilities the calculations performed by the Partnership are based on a combination of the NYMEX published market prices and other inputs, including such factors as present value, volatility and duration.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 12px"> &#xA0;</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The Partnership had no assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis subsequent to their initial recognition.

We file U.S. Federal income tax returns and various state and local returns. A number of years may elapse before an uncertain tax position is audited and finally resolved. For our Federal income tax returns we have four tax years subject to examination. In our major state tax jurisdictions of New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania we have four years that are subject to examination. In the state tax jurisdictions of New Jersey we have five tax years that are subject to examination. While it is often difficult to predict the final outcome or the timing of resolution of any particular uncertain tax position, based on our assessment of many factors including past experience and interpretation of tax law, we believe that our provision for income taxes reflect the most probable outcome. This assessment relies on estimates and assumptions and may involve a series of complex judgments about future events.</p> </div> <div> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman;

In accordance with our Partnership Agreement, the amount of distributions in excess of the minimum quarterly distribution of $0.0675, are distributed 90% to Common Unit holders and 10% to the General Partner unit holders (until certain distribution levels are met), subject to the management incentive compensation plan. As a result, $6.1&#xA0;million will be paid to the Common Unit holders, $0.2&#xA0;million to the General Partner unit holders (including $0.1&#xA0;million of incentive distribution as provided in our Partnership Agreement) and $0.1&#xA0;million to management pursuant to the management incentive compensation plan which provides for certain members of management to receive incentive distributions that would otherwise be payable to the General Partner.</p> </div> 916170000 7786000 7651000 -432000 57641000 -3499000 791776000 124394000 102269000 57979000 4224000 -796000 -642000 58613000 11200000 60000 11719000 1980000 -338000 -7121000 3862000 -3891000 11474000 634000 111631000 98134000 7121000 13923000 40155000 -53873000 6797000 -26779000 -1066000 11719000 132000 33034000 13287000 636000 11909000 36954000 -23388000 173347000 137000 7800000 488534000 124913000 1121000 2032 <div> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt;
