Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 10, 2013, Inergy Midstream, L.P. (the “Partnership”) and NRGM GP, LLC entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”), filed herewith as Exhibit 1.1, with Barclays Capital Inc., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and RBC Capital Markets, LLC, as representatives of the underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), providing for the offer and sale to the Underwriters of 11,000,000 common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (the “Common Units”) at a price to the public of $22.50 per Common Unit ($21.69 per Common Unit, net of underwriting discounts) (the “Offering”). Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Partnership also granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,650,000 Common Units. The material terms of the Offering are described in the prospectus supplement, dated September 10, 2013, as filed by the Partnership with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). The Offering is registered with the Commission pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-185946), and the closing is expected to occur on September 13, 2013, subject to customary closing conditions.
The Partnership intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering of approximately $238.4 million (and the net proceeds from any exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional Common Units) to repay approximately $237.0 million of borrowings under the Partnership’s revolving credit facility, with the remaining net proceeds from the offering to be used for ongoing expansion projects in the Partnership’s midstream business and for general partnership purposes.
The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements of the Partnership and certain affiliates, and customary conditions to closing, indemnification rights, obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to such Underwriting Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 1.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Certain of the Underwriters and their related entities have engaged, and may in the future engage, in commercial and investment banking transactions with the Partnership and its affiliates in the ordinary course of their business. They have received, and expect to receive, customary compensation and expense reimbursement for these commercial and investment banking transactions. Affiliates of certain of the Underwriters are lenders under the Partnership’s revolving credit facility and will receive a substantial portion of the net proceeds from the Offering through the repayment of indebtedness under the Partnership’s revolving credit facility.
