SCHEDULE 13D
 
 
 
CUSIP No.:  874696107
 
Page 8 of 10 Pages

 
Item 3.
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
 
Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by inserting the following information at the end of Item 3:

On April 17, 2020, the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement closed, as described below in Item 4. The total consideration paid for the Class A Shares in connection with the Merger was approximately $3.5 billion. Approximately $2.9 billion of the consideration was funded through equity financing contemplated pursuant to the Equity Commitment Letter, and the remaining consideration was funded through borrowings under the Credit Agreement and the revolving credit facility of Tallgrass Energy Partners, LP, a subsidiary of the Issuer.
 
Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction.
 
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by inserting the following information at the end of Item 4:

On April 17, 2020, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time Buyer was merged with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer surviving the merger and continuing to exist as a Delaware limited partnership. At the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding Class A Share as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the Sponsor Shares) was canceled and converted into the right to receive $22.45 per Class A Share in cash without any interest thereon. The Sponsor Shares, Class B Units and TE Units issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time were unaffected by the Merger, and no consideration was delivered in respect thereof.

Following the completion of the Merger, on April 17, 2020, Alexander I. Greenbaum, a representative of GIC SI, was appointed to serve as a member of the Board.

Following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Issuer’s Class A Shares ceased to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange and will be deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Because the registration of the Class A Shares will be terminated, Class A Shares held by the Acquirors and the Prairie Secondary Acquirors will no longer be subject to reporting under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act upon effectiveness of the deregistration. Consequently, this Amendment No. 5 constitutes an exit filing for the Reporting Persons.
 
Item 5.
Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
 
Item 5(a) – (b) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(a) – (b)  This Amendment No. 5 reflects the beneficial ownership of the Reporting Persons upon the acquisition and cancelation of the Class A Shares in connection with the Merger described above. Calculations of the percentage of Class A Shares beneficially owned are calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3 and assumes that there were 124,307,584 Class A Shares outstanding, which takes into account the number of TE Units that may have been deemed to be beneficially owned by Acquirors and Prairie Secondary Acquirors, as applicable, which were exchangeable together with Class B Shares for a corresponding number of Class A Shares, pursuant to the TGE LP Agreement (defined in Item 6 of the Original 13D).

The aggregate number and percentage of Class A Shares beneficially owned by each Reporting Person and, for each Reporting Person, the number of shares as to which there is sole power to vote or to direct the vote, shared power to vote or to direct the vote, sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition, or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition are set forth on rows 7 through 11 and row 13 of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D and are incorporated herein by reference.

Class A Acquiror directly held 21,751,018 Class A Shares.

Up-C Acquiror 1 directly held 92,778,793 Class B Shares and a corresponding number of TE Units, and Up-C Acquiror 2 directly held 7,876,328 Class B Shares and a corresponding number of TE Units.

Secondary Acquiror 1 directly held 773,510 Class A Shares, and Secondary Acquiror 2 directly held 1,127,935 Class A Shares.



SCHEDULE 13D
 
 
 
CUSIP No.:  874696107
 
Page 9 of 10 Pages


Jasmine has limited partnership interests in a partnership that indirectly wholly-owns all of the limited partnership interests in the Class A Acquiror and has limited partnership interests in Secondary Acquiror I (defined in Item 6 of the Original Schedule 13D) and, as described further in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D, has certain rights with respect to the Class A Shares held by the Acquirors and the Prairie Secondary Acquirors (defined in Item 6 below). Jasmine is controlled and managed by GIC SI, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of GIC. In such capacities, each of GIC SI and GIC shares with Jasmine the power to vo te and dispose of the Class A Shares deemed to be beneficially owned by Jasmine.

Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that any of the Reporting Persons is the beneficial owner of the Class A Shares referred to herein for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed. Each Reporting Person expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of such Class A Shares and any assertion or presumption that it or he and the other persons on whose behalf this Schedule 13D is filed constitute a “group.”

By virtue of the Equityholders Agreement (defined in Item 6 of the Original Schedule 13D), the Reporting Persons, The Blackstone Group L.P. and certain of its affiliates, including Blackstone Infrastructure Associates L.P. (“Blackstone Infrastructure”), the Acquirors, and the Prairie Secondary Acquirors, to the extent they beneficially own Class A Shares, (collectively, “Blackstone”), and Enagas Holding USA, S.L.U. and certain of its affiliates (“Enagas”), may each be deemed to be a member of a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (collectively, Blackstone and Enagas are referred to as the “Separately Reporting Persons”). However, neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that the Reporting Persons, or any of the Separately Reporting Persons are members of any such group. Each of the Separately Reporting Persons has separately made a Schedule 13D filing reporting the Class A Shares they may be deemed to beneficially own. Collectively, the Reporting Persons and the Separately Reporting Persons beneficially own an aggregate of 124,307,584 Class A Shares, representing 100.0% of the outstanding Class A Shares. Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the Class A Shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Separately Reporting Persons.

Item 5(c) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by inserting the following information at the end of Item 5(c):

(c) Except as set forth in this Amendment No. 5, none of the Reporting Persons and, to the best of their knowledge, none of the executive officers or directors of the Reporting Persons, has effected any transactions in the Class A Shares during the past 60 days.
