On March 19, 2021 (the Conversion Date), the subordinated units held by the Reporting Persons converted into common units on a one-for-one basis pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement.
Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction |
This Amendment amends and restates Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D in its entirety as set forth below:
The Reporting Persons acquired the units reported herein solely for investment purposes as partial consideration for the assets and operations contributed by the Reporting Persons or their affiliates to the Issuer in connection with the Offering and the Acquisition. The Reporting Persons may make additional purchases of common units either in the open market or in private transactions depending on the Reporting Persons business, prospects and financial condition, the market for the common units, general economic conditions, stock market conditions and other future developments.
The following describes plans or proposals that the Reporting Persons may have with respect to the matters set forth in Item 4(a)-(j) of Schedule 13D:
(a) On the Conversion Date, upon satisfaction of certain financial conditions for the conversion of the subordinated units set forth in the Partnership Agreement, all 13,750,000 outstanding subordinated units automatically converted into common units on a one-for-one basis, pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement, for no additional consideration. Upon the conversion of all of the subordinated units into common units, the Subordination Period (as defined Partnership Agreement) automatically terminated.
The Reporting Persons held all 13,750,000 outstanding subordinated units. As a result of the foregoing, on the Conversion Date, all of the 13,750,000 subordinated units held by the Reporting Persons were converted into common units.
The subordinated units owned of record by OMS Holdings are convertible into common units on a one-for-one basis upon the termination of the subordination period as set forth in the Partnership Agreement. The Issuer may grant unit options, unit appreciation rights, restricted units, unit awards, phantom units, distribution equivalent rights, cash awards, performance awards, other unit-based awards and substitute awards to employees and directors of the General Partner and its affiliates pursuant to the Issuers 2017 Long Term Incentive Plan adopted by the General Partner. The General Partner may acquire common units to issue pursuant to the 2017 Long Term Incentive Plan on the open market, directly from the Issuer, from other Reporting Persons, or otherwise.
(b) None.
(c) None.
(d) The General Partner has sole responsibility for conducting the Issuers business and for managing its operations and is ultimately controlled by OAS. Some of the executive officers and directors of OAS, Oasis Petroleum and OMS Holdings also serve as executive officers or directors of the General Partner. Neither the General Partner nor its board of directors will be elected by the Issuers unitholders. Through its indirect ownership of the General Partner, OAS has the right to elect the General Partners entire board of directors. The Reporting Persons, however, have no current intention of changing the board of directors or management of the General Partner.
(e) The Reporting Persons, as direct and indirect owners of the General Partner of the Issuer, may cause the Issuer to change its dividend policy or its capitalization, through the issuance of debt or equity securities, from time to time in the future. The Reporting Persons, however, have no current intention of changing the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer.
(f) None.
(g) None.
(h) None.
(i) None.
(j) Except as described in this Item 4, the Reporting Persons do not have, as of the date of this Schedule 13D, any other plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions or events specified in clauses (a) through (i) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons may change their plans or proposals in the future. In determining from time to time whether to sell the common units reported as beneficially owned in this Schedule 13D (and in what amounts) or to retain such securities, the Reporting Persons will take into consideration such factors as they deem relevant, including the business and prospects of the Issuer, anticipated future developments concerning the Issuer, existing and anticipated market conditions from time to time, general economic conditions, regulatory matters and other opportunities available to the Reporting Persons. The Reporting Persons reserve the right to acquire additional securities of the Issuer in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions (which may be with the Issuer or with third parties) or otherwise, to dispose of all or a portion of their holdings of securities of the Issuer or to change their intention with respect to any or all of the matters referred to in this Item 4.
Item 5. | Interest in Securities of the Issuer |
This Amendment amends and restates Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D in its entirety as set forth below:
The information contained in rows 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 13 on the cover page of this Schedule 13D and the information set forth or incorporated by reference in Items 2, 3, 4 and 6 are hereby incorporated herein by reference.
(a)-(b) The following disclosure assumes that as of March 19, 2021 there are a total of 33,827,680 common units of the Issuer.
Pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Act, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own 22,825,000 common units of the Issuer, which constitutes approximately 67.5% of the outstanding common units of the Issuer. The Reporting Persons have shared power to vote or to direct the vote, and shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of 22,825,000 common units of the Issuer.
(c) Except as set forth in Item 3 above or elsewhere in this Schedule 13D, none of the Reporting Persons has effected any transaction in the Issuers common units during the past 60 days.
(d) The Reporting Persons have the right to receive distributions from, and the proceeds from the sale of, the respective common units reported by such persons on the cover pages of this Schedule 13D and in this Item 5. See Schedule I for the information applicable to the Covered Persons. Except for the foregoing and the cash distribution described in Item 6 below, no other person is known by the Reporting Persons to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of distributions from, or the proceeds from the sale of, common units beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons or, to the Reporting Persons knowledge, the Covered Persons.
(e) Not applicable.
