REMOVAL OF SECURITIES FROM REGISTRATION
This Post-Effective Amendment relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-181807) (the “Registration Statement”) filed by PVR Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“PVR”), on May 31, 2012 and amended on August 6, 2012, pertaining to the resale of 9,009,013 common units representing limited partner interests in PVR by certain third parties.
On March 21, 2014, PVR merged with and into Regency Energy Partners LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Regency”), with Regency as the surviving limited partnership (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, the separate limited partnership existence of PVR ceased, and Regency continued its existence as the surviving limited partnership. PVR has terminated all offerings of its securities pursuant to its existing registration statements, including the Registration Statement.
In accordance with the undertaking of PVR in the Registration Statement, this Post-Effective Amendment is being filed to remove from registration the securities not heretofore sold pursuant to the Registration Statement. The Registration Statement is hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of said securities.
