Item 3.01                   Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

 

On November 26, 2013, PAA Natural Gas Storage, L.P. (the “Partnership”) received a notice (the “Notice”) from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) informing the Partnership that it failed to provide timely notification to the NYSE of the November 25, 2013 record date for the Partnership’s special meeting of unitholders to be held on December 31, 2013. Sections 204.21 and 401.02 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual require that notice of upcoming record dates be provided to the NYSE at least ten days prior to the record date.  In the Notice, the NYSE acknowledged that the Partnership is expected to cease to exist in the near future in connection with the consummation of the proposed merger with Plains All American Pipeline, L.P., but advised that the NYSE would have to consider taking action if the Partnership remained listed and failed again in the future to provide the required notice.
