Re: | CVR Partners, LP |
Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-4 |
Filed December 1, 2015 |
File No. 333-206982 |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Set forth below are the responses of CVR Partners, LP (the Company, we, us or our) to comments received from the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance (the Staff) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) by letter dated December 10, 2015, with respect to Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-4, File No. 333-206982, filed with the Commission on December 1, 2015 (the Registration Statement).
For your convenience, each response is prefaced by the exact text of the Staffs corresponding comment in bold, italicized text. All references to page numbers and captions correspond to Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-4 unless otherwise specified.
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet As of September 30, 2015, page 133
1. | We note your response to our prior comment 5 that holders of the Second Lien Notes (Notes) are not required to sell the Notes; however, you are required to offer to repurchase all outstanding Second Lien Notes. Therefore, the Notes become payable upon consummation of the transaction, which otherwise mature in 2021. In this regard, non-current classification of the debt obligation does not appear appropriate in light of the change in control provision effective upon completion of the merger. Please advise or revise your pro forma presentation accordingly. |
RESPONSE: We acknowledge the Staffs comment and advise the Staff that we have revised the pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and related disclosures to classify all of the outstanding Second Lien Notes as current debt obligations.
