Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

 

Each Reporting Person acquired the securities reported in this Schedule 13D/A solely for investment purposes. Each Reporting Person may make additional purchases or dispositions of Issuers securities either in the open market or in private transactions depending on the Reporting Persons business, prospects and financial condition, the market for Issuers securities, general economic conditions, stock market conditions and other future developments.

 

Each Reporting Person does not have, as of the date of this Schedule 13D/A, any plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions or events specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of this Schedule 13D/A. Each Reporting Person may change his plans or proposals in the future. In determining from time to time whether to sell or dispose the Common Units reported as beneficially owned in this Schedule 13D/A (and in what amounts) or to retain such Common Units, each Reporting Person will take into consideration such factors as he deems 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 Person. Each Reporting Person reserves 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 his holdings of securities of the Issuer or to change his intention with respect to any or all of the matters referred to in this Item 4.

 

Depending on these factors, and other factors that may arise in the future, each Reporting Person may be involved in such matters and, depending on the facts and circumstances at such time and subject to applicable law, may formulate a plan with respect to such matters. In addition, each Reporting Person may from time to time hold discussions with or make proposals to management of the Issuer, the board of directors of the Issuer, to other unitholders of the Issuer or to third parties regarding such matters.

 

The information set forth in this Item 4 is subject to change, and there can be no assurances that the matters described in this Item 4 will occur or that each Reporting Person will or will not take, or cause to be taken, any of the actions described above or any similar actions.

Sanchez, Jr. may be deemed to share voting and dispositive power over the Common Units held by Trust 14 with the co-trustee and beneficiary named in this Schedule 13D/A.

 

Antonio R. Sanchez, Jr. disclaims beneficial ownership of the Common Units held by the Trusts except to the extent of his pecuniary interests therein, and this report shall not be deemed an admission that Antonio R. Sanchez, Jr. is the beneficial owner of the Common Units held by the Trusts for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose.

 

(c)                                  On April 20, 2016, the Reporting Persons, Eduardo A. Sanchez and Patricio D.

(d)                                 Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D/A, no other person is known by either Reporting Person to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, Common Units beneficially owned by the Reporting Person or the co-trustees of the Trusts.

 

(e)                                  The Reporting Persons have each most recently ceased to be a beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Common Units as of May 16, 2016.  Accordingly, this Amendment constitutes an exit filing for each Reporting Person.
