Explanatory Note
This Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to Schedule 13D amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on July 15, 2022, as amended by amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed on September 19, 2022 (as amended the “Schedule 13D”) relating to common units representing limited partner interests (“Crestwood Common Units”) of Crestwood Equity Partners LP (the “Issuer”), a Delaware limited partnership, having its principal executive offices at 811 Main Street, Suite 3400, Houston, TX 77002.
Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 2 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.
Item 2. | Identity and Background |
Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by incorporating herein by reference the information set forth on the updated Schedule I attached hereto.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction. |
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
On November 3, 2023, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of August 16, 2023, by and among Energy Transfer LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Energy Transfer”), Pachyderm Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Energy Transfer (“Merger Sub”), the Issuer, and, solely for the purposes set forth therein, LE GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the sole general partner of Energy Transfer, the Issuer merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), with Merger Sub continuing as the surviving entity. Merger Sub is the Issuer’s successor-in-interest as a result of the Merger.
As a result of the Merger, each Crestwood Common Unit issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time the Merger became effective was converted into the right to receive 2.07 common units representing limited partner interests in Energy Transfer and as a result, the Reporting Persons no longer beneficially own any Crestwood Common Units.
Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer. |
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:
(a) and (b) As a result of the consummation of the Merger, the Reporting Persons no longer beneficially own any securities of the Issuer nor have sole or shared power to vote, direct the vote, dispose or direct the disposition with respect to any securities of the Issuer, and the filing of this Amendment constitutes an “exit” filing for each Reporting Person.
Directors affiliated with First Reserve XIII earned director compensation pursuant to the Issuer’s standard director compensation arrangements, which compensation is held for the benefit of one or more of the Reporting Persons and/or certain of their affiliates or certain of the funds they manage. Mr. Reaves, a Managing Director and member of the Board of Directors of First Reserve GP XIII Limited, was granted 914 restricted units on September 15, 2022 which were fully vested at the effective time of the Merger. As a result of the Merger, all 914 Crestwood Common Units were converted into the right to receive 2.07 common units representing limited partner interests in Energy Transfer. Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership over such securities.
(c) Except as set forth herein, each of the Reporting Persons reports that neither it, nor to its knowledge, any other person set forth on Schedule I, has effected any transactions in Crestwood Common Units during the past 60 days.
6
(d) Not applicable.
(e) As of November 3, 2023, as a result of the Merger, the Reporting Persons ceased to beneficially own more than 5% of the Crestwood Common Units.
