Pursuant to the Third Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of PAA GP Holdings LLC, as amended (the “PAGP GP LLC Agreement”), Oxy Holding Company (Pipeline), Inc. (“Oxy”) had the right to designate a director to PAA GP Holdings LLC’s (“PAGP GP”) board of directors for as long as it owned at least a 10% Qualifying Interest (as that term is defined in the PAGP GP LLC Agreement). Effective upon the closing of the Concurrent Secondary Offerings (as defined below) on September 23, 2019, Oxy will cease to own a Qualifying Interest and therefore no longer will have a PAGP GP board designation right. Accordingly, pursuant to Section 6.1(a)(iv) of the PAGP GP LLC Agreement, Oscar K. Brown, Oxy’s PAGP GP board designee, will automatically cease to be a member of the PAGP GP board.

The Common Units will be offered and sold under the PAA shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-214778) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 23, 2016 (the “Registration Statement”), and are described in a Prospectus Supplement dated September 18, 2019 to the Prospectus dated December 7, 2016, which is included in the Registration Statement.
