 Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On July 27, 2015, American Midstream Partners, LP (the “Partnership”) entered into the Fifth Amendment to its Fourth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the “LPA Amendment”). The LPA Amendment grants the Partnership the right (the “Call Right”) to require the holders of the Partnership’s Series A-2 Convertible Preferred Units (the “Series A-2 Holders” and such preferred units, the “Series A-2 Units”) to sell, assign and transfer all or a portion of the then outstanding Series A-2 Units to the Partnership for a purchase price of $17.50 per Series A-2 Unit (subject to appropriate adjustment for any equity distribution, subdivision or combination of equity interests in the Partnership). The Partnership may exercise the Call Right at any time after January 1, 2016, in connection with the Partnership’s or its affiliate’s acquisition of assets or equity from ArclightEnergy Partners Fund V, L.P., or one of its affiliates, for a purchase price in excess of $100 million.

The Partnership may not exercise the Call Right with respect to any Series A-2 Units that a Series A-2 Holder has elected to convert into common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership on or prior to the date the Partnership has provided notice of its intent to exercise its Call Right, and may not exercise the Call Right if doing so would violate applicable law or result in a default under any financing agreement or obligation of the Partnership or its affiliates.

The description of the LPA Amendment contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the LPA Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
