Business Wire
TransMontaigne Inc. (NYSE:TMG) today announced that its Board of
Directors is prepared to accept the terms of a definitive merger
agreement with Morgan Stanley Capital Group Inc. ("Morgan Stanley")
under which Morgan Stanley will acquire all of the outstanding
capital stock of TransMontaigne for cash consideration of $11.35
per share. On June 18, 2006, Morgan Stanley delivered to us a
definitive merger agreement that increases the cash payment to
holders of our capital stock to $11.35 per share. The remaining
terms of the Morgan Stanley merger agreement are substantially
similar to the terms of the amended and restated merger agreement
dated May 22, 2006 ("amended SemGroup merger agreement"), by and
among SemGroup, L.P., and certain of its affiliated entities
(collectively "SemGroup"), and TransMontaigne Inc. Pursuant to the
terms of the amended SemGroup merger agreement, TransMontaigne
today provided notice to SemGroup of the definitive terms of the
Morgan Stanley merger agreement and that TransMontaigne's Board of
Directors is prepared to terminate the amended SemGroup merger
agreement and enter into the Morgan Stanley merger agreement.
SemGroup has until the close of business on Thursday, June 22,
2006, to provide our Board of Directors with a revised merger
agreement that our Board of Directors determines is at least as
favorable to our stockholders as the Morgan Stanley merger
agreement. If SemGroup fails to do so, we intend to terminate the
amended SemGroup merger agreement and enter into the Morgan Stanley
merger agreement. In the event of such a termination by
TransMontaigne, SemGroup will be entitled to a $15 million
termination fee from TransMontaigne, $7.5 million of which Morgan
Stanley has agreed to advance to TransMontaigne, subject to
reimbursement under certain conditions. Additional Information and
Where to Find It On June 7, 2006, TransMontaigne filed updated
preliminary proxy materials regarding the proposed merger with
SemGroup with the SEC. Depending on the outcome of the events
described in this press release, TransMontaigne currently expects
to file amended proxy materials with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") as soon as reasonably practicable. Upon receipt
of all necessary approvals, TransMontaigne then will mail to its
stockholders definitive materials regarding the transaction as soon
as practicable thereafter. Such proxy materials will contain
information about TransMontaigne, the proposed merger and related
matters. Stockholders are urged to read the proxy statement
carefully when it is available, as it will contain important
information that stockholders should consider before making a
decision about the merger. In addition to receiving the proxy
statement from TransMontaigne by mail, stockholders also will be
able to obtain the proxy statement, as well as other filings
containing information about TransMontaigne, without charge, from

an offer to sell shares of TransMontaigne. TransMontaigne and its
executive officers and directors may be deemed to be participants
in the solicitation of proxies from TransMontaigne's stockholders
with respect to the proposed merger. Information regarding any
