(Commission File No. 001-35365)

The following are excerpts of remarks relating to the proposed merger (the “Merger”) of SemGroup Corporation (“SemGroup”) and Rose Rock Midstream, L.P. (“Rose Rock”) made during the public conference call and investor presentation jointly held by SemGroup and Rose Rock on August 5, 2016 and made available for replay beginning on August 8, 2016. Remarks from the question-and-answer portions of the call relating to the Merger are also included below.

Excerpted Remarks from conference call on August 5, 2016

Carlin G. Conner – SemGroup and Rose Rock president and chief executive officer

First, we announced SemGroup’s agreement to acquire the outstanding common units of Rose Rock Midstream. The transaction is progressing as planned and we expect it to close later in the year. This merger is designed to simplify SemGroup’s corporate capital structure and deliver several important benefits to shareholders including an enhanced credit profile, strong dividend growth and coverage beyond 2016. We expect to realize significant benefits from the closing of the merger, including a reduced cost of capital and a simplified SemGroup capital structure.

Carlin G. Conner – SemGroup and Rose Rock president and chief executive officer

SemGroup’s announced second quarter dividend of $0.45 per share reflects a 7% increase over the second quarter of 2015. We expect to maintain our current dividend until the closing of the Rose Rock merger transaction. Rose Rock previously announced its second quarter distribution of $0.66 per unit, a 1.5% increase over the same period last year. We expect to maintain our current Rose Rock distribution until the closing of the merger.

Sunil Sibal – Seaport Global analyst

Hi, good morning guys. Most of my questions have been hit. Just had a couple of clarifications on the balance sheet and how things will roll out post the merger. So I think you clarified that there’s no change in control triggered from the transaction. Any changes to how your revolver would work post transaction and what will be the covenant metrics on the revolver?

Robert N. Fitzgerald – SemGroup and Rose Rock senior vice president and chief financial officer

So after the merger, I think what you’re asking for is after the merger what would our balance sheet and what will our cap structure and target be going forward?

Sunil Sibal – Seaport Global analyst

Yes, that’s correct.

Robert N. Fitzgerald – SemGroup and Rose Rock senior vice president and chief financial officer

We talked a little bit about that when we had our call regarding the merger announcement. At that time, and we’re still maintaining that, we’re looking at a leverage ratio on a combined basis post-merger targeted to be 4.5 times or better. And we feel pretty comfortable running at those levels when we have all the assets together. And we’re also continuing to focus on a coverage post-merger of 1.5 times.
