SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts to change USGC gasoline assessments NYMEX basis

Following industry feedback, please note that Platts' US Gulf Coast waterborne and pipeline gasoline prices for Colonial Pipeline's 18th shipping cycle will be assessed against the NYMEX May RBOB futures contract on March 31. According to Colonial Pipeline's shipping calendar, cycle 18 is slated to schedule on March 31. This cycle is expected to start trading on a prompt basis on March 26, and the last day Platts will assess it relative to the NYMEX April RBOB futures will be March 28. This move eliminates the need to end cycle 18 assessments on March 28, as proposed in a previous subscriber note to address the timing mismatch, and will allow for Platts assessments of Colonial's 19th shipping cycle to reflect the RVP shift on April 1.
