On August 4, 2017, NEP's Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (Partnership Agreement) was executed, which amends and restates its First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership to reflect certain governance changes and related amendments. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the rights and terms of the Common Units have been amended as set forth below.
This Amendment No. 1 shall be deemed to update the description of the Common Units was incorporated by reference in the Initial Form 8-A.
Item 1. Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered.
A description of the Common Units was previously filed under the captions “Partnership Agreement” and “Terms of Proxy Access” in NEP’s Information Statement on Schedule 14C (File No. 001-36518) filed with the SEC on July 12, 2017 (Information Statement) and is incorporated by reference herein.
The foregoing description of the Common Units does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to NEP's Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to NEP's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 7, 2017 (File No. 001-36518) and incorporated herein.
Item 2. Exhibits.
Under the Instructions as to Exhibits with respect to Form 8-A, no exhibits are filed herewith or incorporated by reference because no other securities of NEP are registered on the New York Stock Exchange and the securities registered hereby are not being registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
