Item 3.02.   Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

 

On October 1, 2012, NGL Energy Partners LP (the “Partnership”) issued 516,978 common units, at a price of $25.533 per common unit, to an accredited investor (the “New Unitholder”) in a private transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), pursuant to Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act.  The Partnership issued the common units as partial consideration for the acquisition by an indirect subsidiary of the Partnership of certain entities operating salt water disposal wells and related assets (the “Acquisition”).

 

In connection with the completion of the Acquisition, the current registration rights agreement relating to equity interests of the Partnership was amended by Amendment No. 5 and Joinder to First Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement Amendment”), dated October 1, 2012, by and between the Partnership’s general partner and the New Unitholder. The Registration Rights Agreement Amendment provides for, among other things, certain piggy-back registration rights for the common units that were issued in connection with the Acquisition.

 

The Registration Rights Agreement Amendment is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.  The above description of the material terms of the Registration Rights Agreement Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 4.1 hereto and to the First Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Partnership’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 7, 2011.
