Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

As previously disclosed in the Information Statement on Schedule 14C filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 17, 2015 (the “Information Statement”), on October 28, 2015, the board of directors (the “Board”) of Southcross Energy Partners GP, LLC, the general partner (the “General Partner”) of Southcross Energy Partners, L.P. (the “Partnership”), unanimously approved the Southcross Energy Partners, L.P. Amended and Restated 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), subject to unitholder approval. On November 9, 2015, a unitholder holding a majority of the Partnership’s outstanding limited partnership units approved the Incentive Plan by written consent in lieu of a special meeting of unitholders. Such unitholder consent became effective on December 7, 2015 (upon the expiration of a waiting period of 20 calendar days after November 17, 2015, the date on which the Information Statement was first sent or given to the other unitholders of the Partnership).

The Incentive Plan provides for awards of (i) restricted units, (ii) phantom units, (iii) unit options, (iv) unit appreciation rights, (v) distribution equivalent rights and (vi) other unit-based awards to officers, employees, consultants and directors of the Partnership, the General Partner and the Partnership’s subsidiaries. The Incentive Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board.

The Incentive Plan increases the number of Partnership common units that may be granted as awards from 1,750,000 to 6,250,000, with such amount subject to adjustment as provided for under the terms of the Incentive Plan if there is a change in the common units, such as a unit split or other reorganization. The term of the Incentive Plan was also extended to a period of 10 years following its adoption. The common units authorized to be granted under the Incentive Plan are expected to be registered pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8.

The summary of the Incentive Plan in this report does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Incentive Plan, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated into this Item 5.02 by reference.
