Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 2”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on March 6, 2017 (the “Statement”), relating to the common units representing limited partner interests (the “Common Units”) of VTTI Energy Partners LP, a Marshall Islands limited partnership (the “Issuer”). Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning set forth in the Statement.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 of the Statement is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

The total consideration paid for the Common Units in connection with the Merger (as defined herein) was approximately $472 million. The consideration was funded through capital contributions from the Reporting Persons to VTTI Merger Sub LLC (“Merger Sub”).

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Statement is amended and supplemented as follows:

On September 15, 2017, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub was merged with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer surviving as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of VTTI. At the Effective Time, each Common Unit outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the Unvested LTIP Units and those Common Units held by MLP Partners) was converted into the right to receive $19.50 in cash. The Unvested LTIP Units were cancelled at the Effective Time without payment therefor, and the Common Units held by MLP Partners were not cancelled, were not converted into merger consideration and remain outstanding as Common Units. As a result, the Reporting Persons became the beneficial owners of all of the Common Units of the Issuer.

Following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Issuer’s Common Units ceased to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange and will be deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the Statement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(a) – (b)

The following sets forth the aggregate number of Common Units and percentage of Common Units beneficially owned by each of the Reporting Persons, as well as the number of Common Units as to which each Reporting Person has the sole power to vote or to direct the vote, shared power to vote or to direct the vote, sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition, or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

MLP Partners is the record holder of 1,295,336 Common Units.

Buckeye is the sole member of Buckeye Terminal, which is the majority shareholder of Buckeye North Sea. Vitol is the sole shareholder of Martank, which is a 50% shareholder of VIP Finance and maintains the right to elect a majority of the board of VIP Finance. Buckeye North Sea and VIP Finance are the sole shareholders of VIP, which is the sole shareholder of VTTI, which is the sole shareholder of MLP Partners. Buckeye is a publicly traded entity listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Vitol has a management board whose directors are Guy Richard Skern, Andries Pieter Eeltink and William Dennis Laneville and a supervisory board whose directors are Ian Roper Taylor, David Bernard Fransen, Russell David Hardy, Kho Hui Meng and Miguel Angel Loya. As a result, each of VTTI, VIP, VIP Finance, Buckeye North Sea, Martank, Buckeye Terminal, Buckeye and Vitol may be deemed to share beneficial ownership over the Common Units held of record by MLP Partners. Each such entity or individual disclaims any such beneficial ownership.
