Item 6 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following at the end of the subsection titled “Issuer’s Partnership Agreement”:

 

GP Interest Maintenance Election

 

On July 23, 2015, the Issuer amended its Partnership Agreement to provide that the General Partner may elect to maintain its GP Percentage immediately prior to an issuance of any additional Limited Partner Interests upon giving notice to the Issuer of such election, which shall be effective immediately, and notice of whether the General Partner will make the Capital Contribution required under the Issuer’s Partnership Agreement solely in Common Units of the Issuer (all capitalized terms in this paragraph not otherwise defined in this Schedule 13D are defined in the Issuer’s Partnership Agreement, as amended).

 

10



 

Item 6 is further amended and supplemented by deleting the subheading “Lockup Agreements” and the first paragraph thereunder, and replacing such subheading and paragraph with the following:

 

Lockup Agreements

 

Each of David L. Porges, Philip P. Conti, Randall L. Crawford, Lewis B. Gardner and Theresa Z. Bone agreed with the underwriters in the IPO, the 2013 Offering, the 2014 Offering, the 2015 Offering, and the Fall 2015 Offering (defined below), respectively, that for a specified period of time from the date of the applicable underwriting agreement, ranging from 180 days in the IPO to 45 days in the Fall 2015 Offering, they would not, without the prior written consent of certain of the underwriters, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Common Units or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Units, or enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Units, whether any such transaction described above is to be settled by delivery of Common Units or such other securities, in cash or otherwise.  EQT entered into substantially the same agreement with the underwriters with respect to the IPO for a period of 180 days following the date of the IPO underwriting agreement.  On November 16, 2015, the Issuer completed a public offering to sell 5,650,000 Common Units pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement with Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Barclays Capital Inc. (the Fall 2015 Offering).  In connection with the Fall 2015 Offering, EQGP entered into substantially the same lock-up agreement with the underwriters for a period of 45 days following the date of the Fall 2015 Offering underwriting agreement.

 

Item 6 is further amended and supplemented by replacing the last paragraph in Item 6 with the following:

 

References to, and descriptions of, the Partnership Agreement of the Issuer as set forth in this Item 6 are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Partnership Agreement filed as Exhibit 3.2 to the Issuer’s current report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on July 2, 2012, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Partnership Agreement filed as Exhibit 3.1 to the Issuer’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2014, and as amended by Amendment No. 2 to the Partnership Agreement filed as Exhibit 3.1 to the Issuer’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2015, which are incorporated by reference in their entirety in this Item 6.  References to, and descriptions of, the General Partner’s limited liability company agreement as set forth in this Item 6 are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Third Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of the General Partner filed as Exhibit 3.2 to the Issuer’s current report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on May 15, 2015, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety in this Item 6.
