This Amendment No. 2 (this “Amendment No. 2”) amends and supplements the Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 originally filed on November 22, 2022, as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 filed on January 10, 2024 (as amended, the “Transaction Statement”), by (i) Stonepeak Catarina Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Stonepeak Catarina” and, together with its subsidiaries, other than Evolve (as defined herein) “Stonepeak”), SP Common Equity Subsidiary LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, SP Preferred Equity Subsidiary LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Stonepeak Texas Midstream Holdco LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Stonepeak Catarina Upper Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Stonepeak Infrastructure Fund (Orion AIV) LP, a Delaware limited partnership, Stonepeak Associates LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Stonepeak GP Holdings LP, a Delaware limited partnership, Stonepeak GP Investors LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Stonepeak GP Investors Holdings LP, a Delaware limited partnership, Stonepeak GP Investors Upper Holdings LP, a Delaware limited partnership, Stonepeak GP Investors Holdings Manager LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and Michael Dorrell, a citizen of the United States of America, (ii) Evolve Transition Infrastructure GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the general partner of Evolve (the “General Partner”), and (iii) Evolve Transition Infrastructure LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Evolve”). All capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 2 have the meanings ascribed to them in the Transaction Statement.

 

This Transaction Statement relates to the purchase of all outstanding Common Units (other than Common Units held by the General Partner or its controlled affiliates) by the General Partner pursuant to the exercise of the limited call right at a price per Common Unit of $1.389285.

 

This Amendment No. 2 is being filed pursuant to Rule 13e-3(d)(3) under the Exchange Act, as a final amendment to the Transaction Statement to report the results of the 13e-3 transaction subject to the Transaction Statement. Except as otherwise set forth below, the information set forth in the Transaction Statement remains unchanged and is incorporated by reference into this Amendment No. 2.

 

The items of the Transaction Statement set forth below are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

Items 1 through 9, 11, and 13 through 15.

 

On February 16, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), the General Partner completed the exercise of the limited call right and purchased all of the outstanding Common Units (other than Common Units held by the General Partner or its controlled affiliates) at a price per Common Unit of $1.389285.

 

Following the consummation of the limited call right, the General Partner and its controlled affiliates own all of the economic interests of Evolve and are entitled to all of the benefits resulting from those interests. In addition, as a result of the consummation of the limited call right, there is no longer a public market for the Common Units. Therefore, trading of the Common Units on the NYSE American has been suspended, effective as of the Closing Date. Trading of the Common Units was suspended as of the open of trading on the NYSE American on February 16, 2024. On the Closing Date, the NYSE American filed a Form 25 with the SEC to withdraw the Common Units from listing on the NYSE American and from registration under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act. Evolve intends to file a Form 15 with the SEC on February 26, 2024 requesting that the reporting obligations of Evolve under Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Exchange Act be suspended.
