This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to Schedule 13D is filed jointly by Kristian B. Kos (“Mr. Kos”) and Deylau, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Deylau,” and collectively with Mr. Kos, the “Reporting Persons”), to amend the initial statement on Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on November 22, 2013 (the “Prior 13D”). Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meaning ascribed to them in the Prior 13D.
Item 1. Security and Issuer.
The information set forth in the Prior 13D with respect to this Item has not changed as of the date of this Amendment.
Item 2. Identity and Background.
Except for the subparagraphs specifically identified below, the information set forth in the Prior 13D with respect to this Item has not changed as of the date of this Amendment.
| |
(c) | Mr. Kos is chairman and chief executive officer of New Source Energy GP, LLC, the general partner of the Partnership, and also is a director of New Source Energy GP, LLC. The principal business address of the Partnership and New Source Energy GP, LLC is 914 N. Broadway, Suite 230, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73102. |
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
On January 9, 2015, Mr. Kos received an award under the Partnership’s Long-Term Incentive Plan consisting of 108,225 Common Units. Other than the foregoing, the information set forth in the Prior 13D with respect to this Item has not changed as of the date of this Amendment.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
With respect to the 125,048 additional Common Units acquired by the Reporting Persons since the date of the Prior 13D, such Common Units were acquired solely for investment purposes. 16,823 of such additional Common Units were acquired as partial consideration for the contribution of MidCentral Completion to the Partnership’s subsidiary, MCE, LP, by Torus on June 26, 2014, as contemplated by the option agreement described in the Prior 13D, and the remaining 108,225 of such additional Common Units were acquired pursuant to an award granted to Mr. Kos under the Partnership’s Long-Term Incentive Plan on January 9, 2015.
The remaining information set forth in the Prior 13D with respect to this Item has not changed materially as of the date of this Amendment, except for the subparagraph specifically identified below:
| |
(e) | On January 20, 2015, the Partnership announced a reduction in its quarterly distribution, to $0.20 per Common Unit for the fourth quarter of 2014, or $0.80 per Common Unit on an annualized basis, compared to a distribution of $0.585 per Common Unit for the third quarter of 2014, or $2.34 on an annualized basis. As a director of the General Partner, Mr. Kos participated in the deliberations by the board of directors of the General Partner over this change and voted in favor of the reduced distribution. Apart from the foregoing, the Reporting Persons have no plans to change the present capitalization or distribution policy of the Partnership. |
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
| |
(a) | As of the date of this Amendment, Mr. Kos is the beneficial owner of 924,737 Common Units, which constitutes 5.6% of the outstanding Common Units, and Deylau is the beneficial owner of 682,762 Common Units, which constitutes 4.2% of the outstanding Common Units. The beneficial ownership percentages of the Reporting Persons have been calculated based on 16,403,134 Common Units |
outstanding as of January 19, 2015, as reported by the Partnership to the Reporting Persons on that date.
| |
(b) | Deylau has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to all 682,762 Common Units held by Deylau. Mr. Kos is the sole member and manager of Deylau, and as such may be deemed to have sole voting and dispositive power with respect to all of the 682,762 Common Units held by Deylau. In addition, Mr. Kos has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to 241,975 Common Units held directly by Mr. Kos. |
| |
(c) | Mr. Kos received an award of 108,225 Common Units under the Partnership’s Long-Term Incentive Plan on January 9, 2015. Apart from this award, the Reporting Persons have not effectuated any transactions in the Common Units within the past 60 days. |
| |
(d) | The Reporting Persons have the right to receive distributions from, and the proceeds from the sale of, the Common Units held by them as reported in this Amendment. Except for the foregoing, no other person is known by the Reporting Persons to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of distributions from, or the proceeds from the sale of, Common Units beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons. |
| |
(e) | Deylau ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the outstanding Common Units on or about April 29, 2014, as a result of the Partnership’s issuance of 3,450,000 additional Common Units in an underwritten public offering. |
| |
Item 6. | Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer. |
The information set forth in the Prior 13D with respect to this Item has not changed as of the date of this Amendment, except that the Partnership’s subsidiary completed its acquisition of MidCentral Completion from Torus on the general terms of the option described in the Prior 13D on June 26, 2014. An additional 16,823 Common Units were issued to Deylau on that date in connection with the consummation of such transaction.
Item 7. Material to Be Filed as Exhibits.
The information set forth in the Prior 13D with respect to this Item has not changed as of the date of this Amendment.
