Intranet Article Subtitle: ONEOK Announces Agreement to Acquire Remaining Publicly Held Common Units in EnLink Midstream in a Tax-Free Transaction

 

 

 

To All ONEOK and EnLink Employees:

 

We are pleased to share that we’ve taken the next step in our combined journey toward becoming one company. Today, ONEOK and EnLink announced a definitive merger agreement under which ONEOK will acquire all the outstanding publicly held common units of EnLink for $4.3 billion in ONEOK common stock. Read additional details in our press release.

 

While today’s announcement is an important step forward, the merger is subject to approval of a majority of the outstanding EnLink common units, including the approximately 44% of common units owned by ONEOK, and other customary closing conditions. Completion of the transaction is expected to occur in the first quarter of 2025. We will share more details on the unitholder vote when available. A separate vote by ONEOK shareholders is not required under the terms of the merger agreement.

 

Our joint Integration Management Office is thoughtfully planning the future integration of EnLink into ONEOK, and we will continue sharing updates on this process through the Integration Hubs on ONEOK’s and EnLink’s intranet sites.

 

In the spirit of this week’s holiday, we give thanks to our employees who make these companies special and to the families and loved ones who support each of you every day. We’d also like to offer special thanks to the employees who will continue safe and reliable operations for both companies over the upcoming holiday.

 

As always, please remain focused on safety as we continue this journey together.

 

Sincerely,

 

Pierce Norton

President and CEO of ONEOK

Chairman of the EnLink Midstream Board of Directors

 

Jesse Arenivas

President and CEO of EnLink Midstream
