This statement relates to common units representing limited partner interests (“Common Units”) of Williams Partners L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Issuer”). Unless specifically amended hereby, the disclosure set forth in the Original Schedule 13D, as amended by Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2, Amendment No. 3, Amendment No. 4, Amendment No. 5, Amendment No. 6, Amendment No. 7 and Amendment No. 8, shall remain unchanged.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

     The information previously provided in response to Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following at the end thereof:
     On August 31, 2010, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) dated as of May 24, 2010, by and among the Issuer, GP LLC, Operating Company, WPZ Operating Company Merger Sub LLC (“Merger Sub”), WMZ and Williams Pipeline GP LLC (the “WMZ General Partner”), Merger Sub, a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Operating Company, which is a direct wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer, was merged with and into WMZ, with WMZ being the sole surviving entity and becoming an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer (the “Merger”).
