Item 8.01 | Other Events. |
On June 24, 2020, Enterprise Products Partners L.P. (the “Partnership”), Enterprise Products OLPGP, Inc., Enterprise Products Operating LLC and Skyline North Americas, Inc. (the “Selling Unitholder”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Marquard & Bahls AG, a German corporation (together with its affiliates, “M&B”), entered into an equity distribution agreement (the “Agreement”) with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC (the “Sales Agent”), pursuant to which the Selling Unitholder may offer and sell from time to time through the Sales Agent common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (“Common Units”) having an aggregate offering price of up to $500 million (the “Offered Units”).
The Offered Units represent a portion of the 54,807,352 Common Units that (i) were acquired by the Selling Unitholder from the Partnership in March 2020 as aggregate consideration in connection with the previously reported settlement of M&B’s put option (the “Liquidity Option”) pursuant to that certain Liquidity Option Agreement, dated as of October 1, 2014, by and among the Partnership, M&B and Oiltanking Holding Americas, Inc. and (ii) were registered for resale under the Partnership’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-238170), as contemplated by the terms of that certain Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of March 5, 2020, by and between the Partnership and the Selling Unitholder.
Sales of the Offered Units, if any, will be made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the New York Stock Exchange at market prices, in block transactions or as otherwise agreed by the Selling Unitholder and the Sales Agent. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Selling Unitholder may also sell Offered Units from time to time to the Sales Agent as principal for its own account at a price to be agreed upon at the time of such sale. Any sale of Offered Units to the Sales Agent as principal would be pursuant to the terms of a separate agreement among the Selling Unitholder, the Partnership and the Sales Agent.
The Selling Unitholder may enter into financing arrangements in the future, which arrangements may include pledging some or all of the Offered Units as collateral for such financing arrangements; accordingly, in such a circumstance the Selling Unitholder may not be able to sell all such Units.
The description of the Agreement in this Item 8.01 is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 1.1 hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference.
A legal opinion related to the Registration Statement is filed herewith as Exhibit 8.1.
