These Post-Effective Amendments relate to the following Registration Statements on Form S-1 (collectively, the “Registration Statements”), originally filed by QR Energy, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“QR Energy”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission:

 

·Registration Statement No. 333-169664, filed on September 30, 2010 and effective on December 16, 2010, registering 15,000,000 common units representing limited partner interests (the “Common Units”), of QR Energy in its initial public offering.
   
·Registration Statement No. 333-180364, filed on March 26, 2012 and effective on April 13, 2012, registering 17,500,000 Common Units of QR Energy.

 

On November 18, 2014, the unitholders of QR Energy approved the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 23, 2014 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among (i) QR Energy, (ii) QRE GP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, (iii) Boom Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Merger Sub”), (iv) Breitburn Energy Partners LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Breitburn”) and (v) Breitburn GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub was merged with and into QR Energy, with QR Energy continuing as the surviving entity and as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Breitburn (the “Merger”). Each outstanding common unit representing a limited partner interest in QR Energy and Class B Unit representing a limited partner interest in QR Energy was converted into the right to receive 0.9856 newly issued Breitburn common units representing limited partner interests in Breitburn.

 

As a result of the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, QR Energy has terminated all offerings of securities pursuant to the Registration Statements. In accordance with undertakings made by QR Energy in the Registration Statements 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, QR Energy hereby removes from registration all of such securities of QR Energy registered but unsold under the Registration Statements.
