Item 1.01
|
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
Purchase Agreement
On October 10, 2017, Targa Resources Partners LP (the Partnership), a subsidiary of Targa Resources Corp., entered into a
Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement), among the Partnership, its wholly-owned subsidiary, Targa Resources Partners Finance Corporation (Finance Corp and, together with the Partnership, the Issuers), certain
subsidiary guarantors named therein (the Guarantors) and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as representative of the several initial purchasers listed in Schedule 1 thereto (the Initial Purchasers), pursuant to which the Issuers
agreed to issue and sell to the Initial Purchasers (the Offering) $750,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Issuers 5% senior unsecured notes due 2028 (the Notes). The Notes were sold at par, resulting in gross
proceeds to the Partnership of $744,375,000.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties and
indemnification and contribution provisions under which the Issuers and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, have agreed to indemnify each other against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act).
Relationships
The Initial Purchasers or their respective affiliates have performed investment banking, financial advisory and commercial banking services for
the Partnership and certain of its affiliates, for which they have received customary compensation, and they may continue to do so in the future. The Partnership intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to redeem its 5% senior unsecured
notes due 2018 (2018 Notes), reduce borrowings under its credit facilities, and for general partnership purposes, which may include redemptions or repurchases of its other outstanding notes, repaying other indebtedness, working capital
and funding capital expenditures and acquisitions. Because certain of the Initial Purchasers or their affiliates (i) may be holders of (or manage accounts that hold) the 2018 Notes that the Partnership will redeem with the net proceeds from the
Offering and (ii) are lenders under the Partnerships credit facilities, such Initial Purchasers and affiliates may receive a portion of the proceeds from the Offering. The Partnership has entered into swap transactions with certain of the
Initial Purchasers and has agreed to pay these counterparties a fee in an amount the Partnership believes to be customary in connection with these transactions.
The description set forth above in Item 1.01 is qualified in its entirety by the Purchase Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit
10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2.03
|
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

announcing its commencement of the Offering. A copy of the Partnerships press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01.

press release is filed as Exhibit 99.2 hereto and is incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01.

not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state in which the offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the
securities laws of any such state.
