Item 2.01.             Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

Contribution Agreement Closing

 

On March 7, 2014, EnLink Midstream Partners, LP (formerly known as Crosstex Energy, L.P.) (the “Partnership”) consummated the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement, dated as of October 21, 2013 (the “Contribution Agreement”), among the Partnership, EnLink Midstream Operating, LP (formerly known as Crosstex Energy Services, L.P.), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership (“EnLink Midstream Operating”), Devon Energy Corporation (“Devon”), Devon Gas Corporation, Devon Gas Services, L.P. (“Gas Services”) and Southwestern Gas Pipeline, Inc. (“Southwestern Gas” and, together with Gas Services, the “Contributors”) pursuant to which the Contributors contributed (the “Contribution”) to EnLink Midstream Operating a 50% limited partner interest in EnLink Midstream Holdings, LP (“Midstream Holdings”) and all of the outstanding equity interests in EnLink Midstream Holdings GP, LLC, the general partner of Midstream Holdings (“Midstream Holdings GP” and, together with Midstream Holdings and their subsidiaries, the “Midstream Group Entities”), in exchange for the issuance by the Partnership of 120,542,441 units representing a new class of limited partnership interests in the Partnership (the “Class B Units”).  The Midstream Group Entities own midstream assets previously held by Devon in the Barnett Shale in North Texas, the Cana and Arkoma Woodford Shales in Oklahoma and a contractual right to the benefits and burdens associated with Devon’s interest in Gulf Coast Fractionators in Mt. Belvieu, Texas.

 

The Class B Units represent approximately 52% of the outstanding limited partner interests in the Partnership, with approximately 40% of the outstanding limited partner interests held by the Partnership’s public unitholders and approximately 7% of the outstanding limited partner interests, the approximate 1% general partner interest and the incentive distribution rights held indirectly by EnLink Midstream, LLC (“EnLink Midstream”).  The Class B Units are substantially similar in all respects to the Partnership’s common units representing limited partnership interests in the Partnership (“Common Units”), except that they will only be entitled to a pro rata distribution for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2014.  The Class B Units will automatically convert into Common Units on a one-for-one basis on the first business day following the record date with respect to the distribution for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.  The private placement of the Class B Units pursuant to the Contribution Agreement was made in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof.

 

A copy of the Contribution Agreement was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Partnership with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 22, 2013 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Merger Agreement Closing

 

Also on March 7, 2014, Crosstex Energy, Inc. (the “Corporation”) and Devon consummated the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, dated as of October 21, 2013 (the “Merger Agreement”), among the Corporation, Devon, EnLink Midstream, Acacia

Natural Gas Corp I, Inc., formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of Devon (“New Acacia”), and certain other wholly-owned subsidiaries of Devon pursuant to which the Corporation and New Acacia each became wholly-owned subsidiaries of EnLink Midstream (collectively, the “Mergers” and together with the Contribution, the “business combination”).  As a result of the merger with New Acacia, EnLink Midstream indirectly owns the remaining 50% limited partner interest in Midstream Holdings.

 

Upon the closing of the Mergers, EnLink Midstream issued 115,495,669 Class B common units of EnLink Midstream (the “EnLink Midstream Class B Units”) to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Devon, which units represent approximately 70% of the outstanding limited liability company interests in EnLink Midstream, with the remaining 30% held by the former stockholders of the Corporation.  Upon the closing of the Mergers, each issued and outstanding share of the Corporation’s common stock was converted into the right to receive (i) one common unit representing a limited liability company interest in EnLink Midstream (each, an “EnLink Midstream Common Unit”) and (ii) an amount in cash equal to approximately $2.06, which is an amount equal to the quotient of (x) $100,000,000 divided by (y) the number of shares of Crosstex common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Mergers.

 

The EnLink Midstream Class B Common Units are substantially similar in all respects to the EnLink Midstream Common Units, except that they will only be entitled to a pro rata distribution for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2014.  The EnLink Midstream Class B Units will automatically convert into EnLink Midstream Common Units on a one-for-one basis on the first business day following the record date for distribution payments with respect to the distribution for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.  The private placement of the EnLink Midstream Class B Units pursuant to the Merger Agreement was made in reliance upon an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof.

 

A copy of the Merger Agreement was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 22, 2013 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.02.             Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

The information set forth under Item 2.01 of this Current Report under the heading “Contribution Agreement Closing” regarding the issuance and sale of Class B Units to the Contributors is incorporated herein by reference.
