Item 1.   Security and Issuer

 

This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) relates to the common units representing limited partner interests (the “Common Units”) of PAA Natural Gas Storage, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Issuer” or the “Partnership”), which has its principal executive offices at 333 Clay Street, Suite 1500, Houston, Texas 77002, and amends the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 18, 2011, as amended on August 28, 2013, by Plains All American Pipeline, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“PAA”), PAA GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“General Partner”), Plains AAP, L.P., a Delaware limited liability company (“AAP”), Plains All American GP LLC (“GP LLC”), Plains GP Holdings, L.P. (“GP Holdings”) and PAA GP Holdings LLC (“PAA GP Holdings” and, collectively with PAA, General Partner AAP, GP LLC and GP Holdings, the “Reporting Persons”) (the “Original Schedule 13D”).

 

Except as otherwise specified in this Amendment, all items left blank remain unchanged in all material respects and any items that are reported are deemed to amend and restate the corresponding items in the Original Schedule 13D.  Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D.

 

Item 2.   Identity and Background

 

In accordance with the provisions of General Instruction C to Schedule 13D, information concerning the general partners, executive officers, board of directors and each person controlling a Reporting Person, as applicable (collectively, the “Listed Persons”), required by Item 2 of Schedule 13D, is provided on Schedule 1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein. To the Reporting Persons’ knowledge, none of Listed Persons has been, during the last five years, (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), or (ii) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

 

Item 3.   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

 

Item 3 of the Original 13D is hereby amended to add the following paragraph:

 

(d) Merger Agreement

 

The funding for the Merger (as defined below) pursuant to the Merger Agreement (as defined below) described in Item 4 of this Amendment (which Item 4 is incorporated herein by reference), will consist entirely of newly issued PAA common units as described in Item 4.

 

Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction

 

Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following paragraphs:

 

PAA has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of October 21, 2013 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among PAA, PAA Acquisition Company LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of PAA (“MergerCo”), the Issuer, and PNGS GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the general partner of the Issuer (“PNG GP”).

 

The PNG Conflicts Committee approved the Merger Agreement and the Merger Transactions and determined that the Merger Agreement and the Merger Transactions are fair and reasonable to the holders of Common Units unaffiliated with PAA and the Issuer. This action of the PNG Conflicts Committee constitutes “Special Approval” of the Merger Agreement and the Merger Transactions under the Issuer’s Partnership Agreement. The PNG Conflicts Committee has caused PNG GP to approve the Merger Agreement and the Merger Transactions and directed that the Merger Agreement and the Merger Transactions be submitted to the unitholders of the Issuer at a special meeting of the unitholders for approval. The PNG Conflicts Committee recommended that the unitholders of the Issuer vote in favor of the proposal to approve the Merger Agreement and the Merger Transactions at the special meeting of the unitholders.

 

PAA owns 100% of the membership interests in PNG GP, 46% of the 61.2 million outstanding Common Units and all of the Series A Subordinated Units and Series B Subordinated Units (“PNG subordinated units”) representing limited partnership interests in the Issuer.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, MergerCo will merge with and into the Issuer at the effective time of the merger, with the Issuer surviving (the “Merger”) such that following the Merger, PNG GP will remain a wholly-owned subsidiary of PAA and the sole general partner of the Issuer, and PAA will be the sole limited partner of the Issuer. Except for the Common Units owned by PAA, all the Common Units outstanding as of the effective time of the Merger will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive 0.445 common units representing limited partnership interests of PAA (“PAA common units”) per Common Unit. The transaction is expected to result in approximately 14.7 million additional common units being issued by PAA. In connection with the closing of the Merger, the owners of General Partner have agreed to reduce their incentive distribution rights under PAA’s agreement of limited partnership by $12 million in each of 2014 and 2015, $10 million in 2016 and $5 million per year thereafter. All of the Common Units and PNG subordinated units owned by PAA will be unchanged and remain issued and outstanding representing limited partnership interests of the surviving entity, and no consideration will be delivered in respect thereof. Incentive distribution rights of the Issuer, which are owned by PNG GP, will also be unchanged and remain outstanding as incentive distribution rights of the surviving entity, and no consideration will be delivered in respect thereof.  No fractional PAA common units will be issued in the Merger. Holders of Common Units, other than PAA, will receive cash in lieu of receiving any fractional PAA common unit to which any holder of Common Units would otherwise have been entitled in an amount equal to such fractional interest multiplied by the average of the closing price of PAA common units for the ten consecutive NYSE full trading days ending at the closing of the last NYSE full trading day immediately preceding the day the Merger closes. The parties anticipate that the Merger will close in the later half of the fourth quarter of 2013, pending the satisfaction of certain customary conditions thereto, and that previously announced quarterly distribution of $0.3575 per Common Unit payable to holders of record of such units on November 1, 2013 will be paid on November 14, 2013 as scheduled.

 

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and agreements by each of the parties. Completion of the Merger is conditioned upon, among other things: (1) approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger (the “Merger Transactions”), by the affirmative vote of holders, as of the record date of the special meeting of the Issuer’s unitholders (including PAA), of a majority of the outstanding Common Units, voting as a class; (2) all required filings, consents, approvals, permits and authorizations in connection with the Merger having been made or obtained; (3) the absence of legal injunctions or impediments prohibiting the Merger Transactions; (4) the effectiveness of a registration statement on Form S-4 with respect to the issuance of PAA common units in the Merger; and (5) approval of the listing on the New York Stock Exchange, subject to official notice of issuance, of the PAA common units to be issued in the Merger.

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, PAA has agreed to vote the Common Units and the PNG subordinated units owned beneficially or of record by it or any of its subsidiaries in favor of the Merger Transactions, including the 28,155,526 Common Units currently held by PAA and the 25,434,351 PNG subordinated units currently held by PAA, which units represent approximately 46% of the outstanding Common Units and 100% of the outstanding PNG subordinated units.

 

The Merger Agreement contains provisions granting both PAA and the Issuer the right to terminate the Merger Agreement for certain reasons, including, among others, if: (1) the Merger is not completed on or before April 30, 2014; (2) any governmental authority has issued a final and nonappealable statute, rule, order, decree or regulation enjoining or prohibiting consummation of the Merger; (3) under certain conditions, there has been a material breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in the Merger Agreement by a party to the Merger Agreement which is not cured within 30 days following receipt by the breaching party of written notice from the non-breaching party; (4) the Issuer does not obtain the requisite unitholder approval of the Merger Agreement and the Merger Transactions; or (5) either the PNG GP board of directors or the PNG Conflicts Committee, in accordance with the Merger Agreement, changes its recommendation to the unitholders of the Issuer with respect to approving the Merger Agreement and the Merger Transactions or publicly proposes to approve, adopt or recommend another proposal or offer from a third party relating to the acquisition of the Issuer (a “PNG Change in Recommendation”).

 

All costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger Agreement and the Merger Transactions will be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses, except that if the Merger Agreement is terminated due to a PNG Change in Recommendation the Issuer will pay the expenses incurred by PAA, and if the Merger Agreement is terminated due to a material breach, the breaching party will pay the expenses incurred by the non-breaching party, in each case not to exceed $5 million.

 

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 and incorporated by reference into this Item 4.

Other than as described above, none of the Reporting Persons has any plan or proposals of the type referred to in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D, although they reserve the right to formulate such plans or proposals in the future.

 

Item 6.   Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

 

Item 6 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended to add the following paragraph:

 

The information set forth under Item 4 and in Exhibit 2.1 is hereby incorporated by reference in this Item 6.
