EXPLANATORY NOTE

DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment relates to the following Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”), originally filed by JP Energy Partners LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“JP Energy”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission:

On March 7, 2017, the unitholders of JP Energy adopted and approved the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 23, 2016 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among American Midstream Partners, LP (“AMID”), American Midstream GP, LLC, Argo Merger Sub, LLC (“AMID Merger Sub”), Argo Merger GP Sub, LLC (“GP Sub”), JP Energy and JP Energy GP II LLC. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, AMID Merger Sub was merged with and into JP Energy, with JP Energy continuing as the surviving entity and as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of AMID (the “Merger”).

Each common unit representing a limited partner interest in JPE (the “JPE Common Units”) and each subordinated unit representing a limited partner interest in JPE (the “JPE Subordinated Units” and, together with JPE Common Units, the “JPE Units”) outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, other than those JPE Units held by Magnolia Infrastructure Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and successor by merger to AL Lonestar, LLC (together with its affiliates, the “Affiliated Unitholders”) and GP Sub, was converted into the right to receive 0.5775 of a newly issued common unit representing a limited partner interest in AMID (the “AMID Common Units”). Each JPE Unit outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger held by an Affiliated Unitholder was converted into the right to receive 0.5225 of a newly issued AMID Common Unit.

As a result of the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, JP Energy has terminated all offerings of securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. In accordance with undertakings made by JP Energy in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities that had been registered for issuance that remain unsold at the termination of such offering, JP Energy hereby removes from registration all of such securities of JP Energy registered but unsold under the Registration Statement.
