EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to form 8-A (the “Registration Statement”) is being filed pursuant to Section 12(b) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), by Capital Clean Energy Carriers Corp., a Marshall Islands corporation (the “Corporation” or the “Registrant”), as successor registrant to Capital Product Partners L.P., a Marshall Islands limited partnership (the “Partnership”). On August 26, 2024 (the “Effective Time”), the Partnership converted from a Marshall Islands limited partnership to a Marshall Islands corporation and changed its name to Capital Clean Energy Carriers Corp., pursuant to the Plan of Conversion, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 2.1 (the “Conversion”). The Conversion is deemed a continuation of the existence of the Partnership in the form of a Marshall Islands corporation, with the existence of the Corporation deemed to have commenced on the date the Partnership commenced its existence.
Upon the Effective Time, among other things, each common unit of the Partnership issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into one common share, par value $0.01 per share, of the Corporation (the “Common Shares”). In accordance with Rule 12g-3 under the Exchange Act, upon the Effective Time, the Common Shares were deemed to be registered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, as the Corporation is deemed to be the successor registrant to the Partnership. The Corporation hereby expressly adopts the Registration Statement, as modified by this Amendment, as its own registration statement for all purposes of the Exchange Act. The Common Shares will continue to trade on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC under the ticker symbol “CCEC”.
