TheSDTS-SU Asset Exchange was structured to qualify, in part, as a simultaneous tax deferred like kind exchange of assets to the extent that the assets exchanged are of “like kind” (within the meaning of Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code). SDTS paid approximately $13.18 million to SU at closing to settle the difference between the sums of the estimated net book value of the assets and liabilities exchanged and the estimated net working capital amounts associated with theSDTS-SU Asset Exchange. In August 2019, SU paid $8 million to NTU pursuant to theSDTS-SU Asset Exchange agreement as a post-closingtrue-up to settle the difference between the final net book value of the assets and liabilities exchanged and the final net working capital amounts associated with theSDTS-SU Asset Exchange.
In addition, as a condition to the closing of theSDTS-SU Asset Exchange, the Sempra-Sharyland Transaction was completed. As a result of the Sempra-Sharyland Transaction, Sharyland is now our affiliate for purposes of PUCT rules. Pursuant to the agreement governing theSDTS-SU Asset Exchange and the PUCT order in Docket No. 48929 approving the InfraREIT Acquisition, upon closing of the InfraREIT Acquisition we entered into an operation agreement pursuant to which we will provide certain operations services to Sharyland at cost with no markup or profit.
