Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions:

On May 26, 2011, Energy Partners Ltd. (the “Company”) held its 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2011 Annual Meeting”). The stockholders approved the First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Company’s 2009 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2009 LTIP”). The First Amendment increases the number of shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) that the Company may issue under the 2009 LTIP from 1,237,000 to 2,474,000 shares, effective May 26, 2011. Immediately following the 2011 Annual Meeting, the Company executed the documentation that amended the 2009 LTIP in accordance with the First Amendment.

At the 2011 Annual Meeting, the stockholders of the Company voted on the following proposals:

(a) The election of six (6) individuals to the Company’s Board of Directors;

(b) The approval of the First Amendment;

(c) The ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2011;

(d) The approval of, on a non-binding advisory basis, the Company’s executive compensation; and

(e) On a non-binding advisory basis, the frequency of future non-binding advisory votes to approve the Company’s executive compensation.

On the record date for the 2011 Annual Meeting, there were 40,192,255 shares of Common Stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote. Under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange, with the exception of the ratification of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2011, brokers or other nominees did not have any discretionary authority at the meeting with respect to shares held in “street name.” Therefore, if a beneficial owner did not instruct its broker or other nominee how to vote on one of these non-discretionary matters, then the shares held by that beneficial owner were not present at the meeting for purposes of that matter. Accordingly, for purposes of the accounting firm ratification matter, stockholders holding 35,337,525 shares were present at the meeting, in person or represented by proxy. For all other matters, stockholders holding 31,872,815 shares were present at the meeting, in person or represented by proxy.

At the 2011 Annual Meeting, the stockholders elected each of the director nominees to serve as directors until the Company’s 2012 annual meeting of stockholders. Five of the nominees were current directors of the Company who were re-elected. As previously disclosed, John F. Schwarz did not stand for re-election at the 2011 Annual Meeting because the Company’s Board of Directors had found and nominated a qualified candidate, William F. Wallace, to serve in his place. The voting for the directors was as follows:

The stockholders approved the First Amendment by the following vote:

The stockholders ratified the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2011:

The stockholders approved, on a non-binding advisory basis, the Company’s executive compensation:

Finally, the stockholders voted, on a non-binding advisory basis, to hold future non-binding advisory votes to approve the Company’s executive compensation every year:

In accordance with the voting results listed above, the Company has determined that it will conduct an advisory vote on executive compensation every year until the next vote on the frequency of stockholder votes on executive compensation. Stockholders must be given the opportunity to vote on the frequency of advisory votes on executive compensation at least once every six years.
