REPORT
Completion of Merger
On September
15, 2017, VTTI B.V. (
VTTI
) completed its acquisition of VTTI Energy Partners LP (the
Partnership
) pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 8, 2017 (the
Merger
Agreement
), by and among the Partnership, VTTI Energy Partners GP LLC, the general partner of the Partnership, VTTI, VTTI MLP Partners B.V., a direct wholly owned subsidiary of VTTI (
MLP Partners
), and VTTI Merger Sub
LLC, a direct wholly owned subsidiary of MLP Partners (
Merger Sub
). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, among other things, Merger Sub merged with and into the Partnership (the
Merger
), with the Partnership
surviving the Merger as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of VTTI.
Under the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the
Effective Time
), each common unit representing a limited partner interest in the Partnership (the
Common Units
) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time other than Common Units held by
(a) Stichting Administratiekantoor VTTI (the
Stichting
) that do not correspond to a vested depositary receipt issued to an employee, consultant or director of the Partnership or its affiliates (the
Unvested LTIP
Units
), and (b) MLP Partners was converted into the right to receive $19.50 in cash (the
merger consideration
). The Unvested LTIP Units were cancelled at the Effective Time without payment therefor. The Common Units
held by MLP Partners were not cancelled, were not converted into the merger consideration and remain outstanding as Common Units.
The
foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the Merger does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and incorporated
herein by reference.
Delisting from the New York Stock Exchange
In connection with the consummation of the Merger, the New York Stock Exchange (the
NYSE
) was notified that each outstanding
Common Unit other than the Unvested LTIP Units and those held by MLP Partners was converted into the right to receive the merger consideration, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement. The Partnership requested that the NYSE file
a notification of removal from listing on Form 25 with the SEC with respect to the delisting of the Common Units. The trading of the Common Units on the NYSE was suspended prior to the opening of trading on September 15, 2017.
In addition, the Partnership intends to file with the SEC a certification of notice of termination on Form 15F requesting that the Common
Units be deregistered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Exchange Act
), and that the Partnerships reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act with
respect to the Common Units be suspended.
