About Dakota Plains Holdings, Inc.
Dakota Plains Holdings, Inc. ("Dakota Plains") (OTC: DAKP) is an integrated midstream energy company, which competes through its 50/50 joint ventures with affiliates of World Fuel Services Corporation (NYSE: INT) and Prairie Field Services, LLC, to provide customers with crude oil off take services that include marketing, transloading and trucking of crude oil and related products.  Direct and indirect company assets include a proprietary trucking fleet, a transloading facility located in Mountrail County, North Dakota, which is centrally located within the Bakken region, and 1,104 railroad tank cars.
