Item 1.01
  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On April 20, 2009, Calumet Lubricants Co., Limited Partnership (“Calumet”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Calumet Specialty Products Partners, L.P. (the “Partnership”), entered into Amendment No. 2 to Crude Oil Supply Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Legacy Resources Co., L.P. (“Legacy”). The Amendment, effective as of April 1, 2009, modifies the market-based pricing mechanism established in the Crude Oil Supply Agreement by and between Calumet and Legacy, under which Legacy supplies the Partnership’s Princeton refinery with all of its crude oil requirements on a just in time basis.

Because Legacy is owned in part by The Heritage Group, an affiliate of our general partner, and our chief executive officer and president, F. William Grube, the terms of the Amendment were reviewed by the Partnership’s conflicts committee, which consists entirely of independent directors. The conflicts committee approved the Amendment after determining that the terms of the Amendment are fair and reasonable to the Partnership.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated into this Current Report on Form 8-K by reference.
