SECURITY AND ISSUER This Amendment No. 8 to Schedule 13D relates to the Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of TransMontaigne Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"). The principal executive offices of the Company are located at 1670 Broadway, Suite 3100, Denver, Colorado 80202. Morgan Stanley ("MS"), Morgan Stanley Capital Group Inc. ("MSCGI"), Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated ("MS&Co."), and Morgan Stanley DW Inc. ("MSDW", and, together with MS, MSCGI, and MS&Co., the "Reporting Persons") hereby amend the Schedule 13D originally filed on January 10, 2005 and amended on March 22, 2006, April 26, 2006, May 8, 2006, May 17, 2006, June 18, 2006, June 26, 2006 and August 23, 2006. ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION Item 4 is hereby amended by adding the following: On September 1, 2006, the Company merged with and into Buffalo Merger Sub Inc. Pursuant to the agreement and plan of merger dated June 22, 2006, by and among MSCGI, Buffalo Merger Sub Inc. and the Company, each outstanding share of Common Stock, was converted into the right to receive $11.35 per share. Shares of Common Stock held by MSCGI after the exercise of its warrants just prior to the consummation of the merger were canceled without consideration. Each outstanding share of common stock of Buffalo Merger Sub Inc. was converted into a share of Common Stock. Consequently, the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of MSCGI. Further detail is available in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 1, 2006. These materials are incorporated herein by reference and the foregoing description of the subject transactions is qualified in its entirety by reference to such materials. ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF ISSUER Item 5 is hereby amended in its entirety as follows: (a) and (b): For the purposes of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, MS may be deemed to beneficially own up to 100 shares of Common Stock, or 100% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock based on 100 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of September 1, 2006. MS is filing solely in its capacity as parent company of, and indirect beneficial owner of securities held by, MSCGI. For the purposes of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, MSCGI may be deemed to beneficially own up to 100 shares of Common Stock, or 100% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock based on 100 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of September 1, 2006. For the purposes of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, neither MS&Co. nor MSDW may be deemed to beneficially own any shares of Common Stock. The Reporting Persons do not affirm the existence of a group and are filing this statement jointly pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k)(1) promulgated under the Exchange Act, provided that, as contemplated by Section 13d-1(k)(1)(ii), no Reporting Person shall be responsible for the completeness or accuracy of the information concerning the other persons making the filing, unless such Reporting Person knows or has reason to believe that such information is inaccurate. By virtue of the relationship previously reported under Item 2 of this statement, each of MS and MSCGI may be deemed to have shared voting and dispositive power with respect to 100 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by MSCGI. Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by each Reporting Person that it is the beneficial owner of any of the Common Stock referred to herein for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed. (c) Except as disclosed in Schedule F, none of the Reporting Persons has effected any transactions in the Common Stock during the past 60 days. None of the Reporting Persons is aware of any information that indicates that any other Reporting Person has effected any such transaction. (d) By virtue of the relationships described in Item 2 of this statement, MS may be deemed to have the power to direct the receipt of dividends declared on the shares of Common Stock held by MSCGI and the proceeds from the sale of the shares of Common Stock. (e) Not applicable. ITEM 7. MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS Exhibit 1 Joint Filing Agreement dated September [6], 2006 between MS, MSCGI, MS&Co, and MSDW.
