Item 7.01 | | Regulation FD Disclosure |
| | On September 25, 2007, we announced that we had priced an offering to sell $600 million of 30-year senior notes with a coupon of 6.85 percent. The notes were issued under our existing shelf registration statement previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses, were approximately $592.9 million. We expect to use the proceeds to finance our previously announced $300 million acquisition of an interstate natural gas liquids and refined petroleum products pipeline system and related assets from a subsidiary of Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, L.P., which isexpected to close in early October 2007. We also plan to use a portion of the net proceeds to repay indebtedness outstanding under our $1 billion revolving credit facility. |
