    This Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 5”) relates to the common units representing limited partner interests (“common units”) of Sprague Resources LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership” or the “Issuer”), and amends and supplements the initial statement on Schedule 13D filed by certain of the Reporting Persons with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 8, 2020 (the “Original 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed with the SEC on June 4, 2020, Amendment No. 2 filed with the SEC on October 2, 2020, Amendment No. 3 filed with the SEC on April 20, 2021 and Amendment No. 4 filed with the SEC on May 28, 2021. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 5 shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Original 13D.

    Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

    Item 5(a, b, c) of the Original 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

    (a, b) The information contained on the cover pages of this Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference. Ownership percentages set forth in this Schedule 13D are based on a total of 26,226,255 common units of the Issuer outstanding as of June 15, 2021. As of the date hereof, (i) each of Hartree Bulk Storage and HP Bulk Storage Manager may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 1,375,000 common units, which represents approximately 5.24% of the total outstanding common units, (ii) Sprague HP Holdings may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 18,173,849 common units, which represents approximately 69.30% of the total outstanding common units and (iii) each of Hartree and Hartree GP may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 18,173,849 common units, which represents approximately 69.30% of the total outstanding common units. Collectively, the Reporting Persons beneficially own an aggregate of 19,548,849 common units, which represents approximately 74.54% of the total outstanding common units.

    Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by any of the Reporting Persons that it is the beneficial owner of any of the common units for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Act, or for any other purpose, and, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest, such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed by each Reporting Person.

    Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer

    Item 6 of the Original 13D is hereby amended by inserting the following information at the end of Item 6:

    Credit Agreement

As additional security for the obligations under the Credit Agreement, Hartree Partners, LP granted a security interest in all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Sprague HP Holdings in favor of the lenders.

    The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of such agreement, which is attached as an exhibit to this Schedule 13D and is incorporated herein by reference.
