Amendment to Sixth Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement. On August 10, 2011, the Board of Directors of Enterprise Products Holdings LLC (the “General Partner”), the general partner of Enterprise Products Partners L.P. (the “Partnership”), approved Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to the Partnership’s Sixth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership dated November 22, 2010 (the “Partnership Agreement”). The Amendment was executed effective as of August 11, 2011. The Amendment amends the form of certificate evidencing ownership of the Partnership’s common units and updates the Partnership Agreement for other ancillary ministerial matters relating to such certificates.
In accordance with Section 13.1(d) of the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner has determined that the Amendment does not adversely affect the Partnership’s limited partners in any material respect and, therefore, that the amendment does not require approval of any such limited partner.
A copy of the Amendment is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference.
