Item 8.01. Other Events
On January 1, 2009, we adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment to ARB No. 51 (“SFAS No. 160”). Based on the effective date of the pronouncement, the audited consolidated balance sheet of Kinder Morgan G.P., Inc. in Exhibit 99.1 of the 8-K filed May 15, 2009 for the year ended December 31, 2008 (the “Balance Sheet”) did not reflect the adoption of SFAS No. 160. Accordingly, the Balance Sheet has been updated solely to reflect the retrospective presentation and disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 160 that were not yet effective for the Balance Sheet when originally filed as Exhibit 99.1 of the Form 8-K on May 15, 2009, and is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference. In addition, on July 15, 2009, Knight Inc. changed its name to Kinder Morgan, Inc. References in the Balance Sheet to Knight Inc. have been replaced with Kinder Morgan, Inc.
Information in the Balance Sheet is generally stated as of December 31, 2008, and this filing does not reflect any subsequent information or events other than the adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 160 and the name change described above.
