Exhibit 10.2

PROMISSORY NOTE

$201,223,800

Dated: January 26, 2010

Philadelphia, PA

FOR VALUE RECEIVED and intending to be legally bound, Sunoco Logistics Partners L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Maker”), promises to pay to the order of Sunoco Partners LLC, a Pennsylvania limited liability company that is Maker’s general partner (the “Payee”), upon surrender hereof, the principal sum of Two Hundred One Million Two Hundred Twenty-Three Thousand Eight Hundred Dollars ($201,223,800), and to pay interest thereon, at a rate of one-month LIBOR plus 30 basis points per annum (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months) until the principal hereof has been paid. The unpaid principal and accrued interest shall become payable on December 31, 2010 (the “Maturity Date”), at which time any remaining unpaid principal and interest shall be due in full.

Payment of the principal of, and any premium and interest on, this Note will be made in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, at the principal office of the Payee at 1818 Market Street - Suite 1500, Philadelphia, PA 19103, or such other place as Payee may designate in writing.

In the event that Maker defaults on any payment under this Note, Payee may assess a late charge of two percent (2%) for each such payment that remains unpaid more than one (1) day after its due date. This late charge shall be paid as liquidated damages in lieu of actual damages, and not as a penalty. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein, the total liability of Maker (before or after default) for payment of interest pursuant hereto, shall not exceed the maximum amount of such interest permitted by law to be charged, collected or received from Maker, and if any payments by Maker include interest in excess of such maximum amount, Payee shall apply such excess to the reduction of the unpaid principal amount due pursuant hereto, or if none is due, such excess shall be refunded to Maker. Any such application or refund shall not cure or waive any default hereunder. In determining whether or not any interest payable under this Note exceeds the highest rate permitted by law, any non-principal payment (except payments specifically stated in this Note to be “interest”), including without limitation, late charges, shall be deemed, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to be an expense, fee, premium or penalty rather than interest.

Whenever any payment to be made hereunder otherwise shall be due on a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which banks in the City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania are required or permitted by law to close (any other day being a “Business Day”) such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

Maker reserves the right, at any time, upon one Business Day’s prior written notice, to prepay this Note (in whole or in part) prior to the Maturity Date with no prepayment penalty; provided, however, that Maker shall pay accrued interest on the principal so prepaid to the date of such prepayment.

Maker acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel with respect to this Note and the transactions evidenced hereby.

At any time and from time to time, without notice to, or consent of, Maker, Payee may assign or otherwise transfer, in whole or in part, to any person (an “Assignee”) this Note, or may sell a participation therein to any person. Maker agrees not to assert against Assignee any claim or defense which Maker may have against Payee.

No renewal, extension, or assignment of this Note by Payee, shall affect the liability or the obligations of Maker. No failure or delay on the part of Payee in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no course of dealing between Maker and Payee shall operate as a waiver therefor. All rights and remedies of Payee under this Note may be exercised concurrently or consecutively at Payee’s option, and no single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or future exercise thereof, or the exercise of any rights or remedies which Payee or any subsequent holder of this Note otherwise would have. All rights and remedies existing hereunder are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available to Payee.

This Note may be amended or modified only in a writing signed by Payee and Maker.

If any one or more of the provisions of this Note are determined to be unenforceable, in whole or in part, for any reason, the remaining provisions shall remain fully operative.

THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA.
