Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Purchase Agreement

On February 26, 2015 Sabine Pass Liquefaction, LLC (“SPL”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Cheniere Energy Partners, L.P. (“Cheniere Partners”), entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as representative of the initial purchasers named therein (the “Initial Purchasers”), to issue and sell to the Initial Purchasers $2.0 billion aggregate principal amount of its 5.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”).

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by SPL and customary conditions to closing and indemnification obligations of SPL and the Initial Purchasers. The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

The Initial Purchasers and certain of their affiliates have provided from time to time, and may provide in the future, certain investment and commercial banking and financial advisory services to SPL and Cheniere Partners in the ordinary course of business, for which they have received and may continue to receive customary fees and commissions.

On March 3, 2015 (the “Issue Date”), SPL closed the sale of the Notes pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The sale of the Notes was not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the Notes were sold on a private placement basis in reliance on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 144A and Regulation S thereunder.

Indenture

Sixth Supplemental Indenture

The Notes were issued on the Issue Date pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of February 1, 2013 (the “Base Indenture”), by and among SPL, the guarantors that may become party thereto from time to time and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by a sixth supplemental indenture, dated as of the Issue Date, between SPL and the Trustee, relating to the Notes (the “Sixth Supplemental Indenture”). The Base Indenture as supplemented by the Sixth Supplemental Indenture is referred to herein as the “Indenture.”

Under the terms of the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, the Notes will mature on March 1, 2025 and will accrue interest at a rate equal to 5.625% per annum on the principal amount from the Issue Date, with such interest payable semi-annually, in cash in arrears, on March 1 and September 1 of each year, beginning on September 1, 2015.

The Notes are senior secured obligations of SPL and rank senior in right of payment to any and all of SPL’s future indebtedness that is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and equal in right of payment with all of SPL’s existing and future indebtedness (including all loans under SPL’s existing credit facilities, all obligations under SPL’s letter of credit and reimbursement agreement and all of SPL’s outstanding senior secured notes) that is senior and secured by the same collateral securing the Notes. The Notes are effectively senior to all of SPL’s senior indebtedness that is unsecured to the extent of the value of the assets constituting the collateral securing the Notes.

As of the Issue Date, the Notes were not guaranteed but will be guaranteed in the future by all of SPL’s future restricted subsidiaries. Such guarantees will be joint and several obligations of the guarantors of the Notes. The guarantees of the Notes will be senior secured obligations of the guarantors.

At any time or from time to time prior to December 1, 2024, SPL may redeem all or a part of the Notes, at a redemption price equal to the “make-whole” price set forth in the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. SPL also may at any time on or after December 1, 2024, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption.

General

The Indenture also contains customary terms and events of default and certain covenants that, among other things, limit SPL’s ability and the ability of SPL’s restricted subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness or issue preferred stock, make certain investments or pay dividends or distributions on capital stock or subordinated indebtedness or purchase, redeem or retire capital stock, sell or transfer assets, including capital stock of SPL’s restricted subsidiaries, restrict dividends or other payments by restricted subsidiaries, incur liens, enter into transactions with affiliates, consolidate, merge, sell or lease all or substantially all of SPL’s assets and enter into certain LNG sales contracts. The Indenture covenants are subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions.

The foregoing description of the Sixth Supplemental Indenture is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 hereto, and is incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing description of the Indenture is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Indenture, which is incorporated by reference herein. A copy of the Base Indenture was filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Current Report dated February 4, 2013, filed by Cheniere Partners on Form 8-K.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the closing of the sale of the Notes, SPL and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as representative of the respective Initial Purchasers, entered into a Registration Rights Agreement dated the Issue Date (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, SPL has agreed, and any future guarantors of the Notes will agree, to use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and cause to become effective a registration statement with respect to an offer to exchange any and all of the Notes, for a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities of SPL issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects to the respective Notes sought to be exchanged (other than with respect to restrictions on transfer or to any increase in annual interest rate), and that are registered under the Securities Act. SPL has agreed, and any future guarantors of the Notes will agree, to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective within 360 days after the Issue Date. Under specified circumstances, SPL has also agreed, and any future guarantors will also agree, to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to become effective a shelf registration statement relating to resales of the Notes. SPL will be obligated to pay additional interest if it fails to comply with its obligations to register the Notes within the specified time periods.

This description of the Registration Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Registration Rights Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
