Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On February 15, 2008, Knight Inc. completed the sale of 80% of the ownership interests of MidCon, a wholly owned subsidiary of Knight, pursuant to the purchase agreement with Myria Acquisition Inc., a Delaware corporation, previously disclosed in Knight Inc.s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on December 11, 2007.
In connection with the closing of the sale, MidCons wholly owned subsidiary, NGPL PipeCo LLC, merged with and into MidCon, and MidCon converted from a Delaware corporation to a Delaware limited liability company and changed its name to NGPL PipeCo LLC.
As disclosed in its Form 8-K filed on December 11, 2007, Knight will use virtually all of the expected approximately $5.3 billion of combined after-tax proceeds from the sale of MidCon and from the issuance of debt by NGPL PipeCo LLC to pay down outstanding debt starting with debt incurred by Knight in connection with its going private transaction that closed in May 2007. While Knight expects that all of the outstanding borrowings under such debt will be repaid with the proceeds from these transactions, Knight will keep its $1.0 billion senior secured revolving credit facility in place. As a result, certain existing notes of Knight and of Kinder Morgan Finance Company, ULC, the sale of which were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, will remain equally and ratably secured with the revolving credit facility.
Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
(b) Pro Forma Financial Information.
Knight Inc. will file an amendment to this Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days after the date of this Form 8-K containing unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements of Knight Inc. reflecting the closing of the sale disclosed under Item 2.01.
