Item 1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 29, 2014, Susser Holdings Corporation (the “Company”) (i) repaid in full all outstanding loans, together with interest and all other amounts due in connection with such repayment under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of April 3, 2013 (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, Susser Holdings L.L.C. and a syndicate of banks and financial institutions, including Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and (ii) terminated all commitments under the Credit Agreement.

 

Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

In connection with the consummation of the Merger (as defined below), the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”) was notified that each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock was converted into the right to receive the merger consideration described below, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement. The Company requested that the Exchange file a notification of removal from listing on Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) with respect to the delisting of the Company’s shares of common stock. The Company’s common stock was delisted and removed from trading on the Exchange on August 29, 2014.

 

Item 3.03. Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each share of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger (other than shares held by the Company in treasury and shares held by Energy Transfer Partners, L.P. (“ETP”) or Drive Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of ETP (“Merger Sub”) or by any wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, ETP or Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time) was converted into the right to receive the merger consideration as described below.

At the Effective Time of the Merger, holders of the Company’s shares of common stock ceased to have any rights as stockholders of the Company, other than the right to receive the merger consideration as described below.

To the extent required, the information in Item 5.01 is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 5.01. Changes in Control of Registrant.

On August 29, 2014, ETP completed the acquisition of the Company, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 27, 2014 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among ETP, Energy Transfer Partners GP, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, Merger Sub, the Company and, for limited purposes set forth therein, Energy Transfer Equity, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger.

On August 29, 2014, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Merger was consummated, and the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of ETP. The aggregate purchase price paid for all of the equity securities of the Company was approximately $1.8 billion, which purchase price was funded by ETP common units, funds from ETP’s revolving credit facility and cash on hand.


At the effective time of the Merger on August 29, 2014 (the “Effective Time”), each share of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares held by the Company in treasury and shares held by ETP or Merger Sub or by any wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, ETP or Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time) was converted into the right to receive $40.125 in cash and 0.7253 of an ETP common unit (the “Standard Mix of Consideration”). In lieu of receiving the Standard Mix of Consideration, the Company’s stockholders could instead elect to receive, for each share of the Company’s common stock, either (i) $80.25 in cash (the “Cash Consideration”) or (ii) 1.4506 ETP common units (the “Unit Consideration”); provided that the Cash Consideration and the Unit Consideration were each subject to proration to ensure that the aggregate amount of cash paid and the aggregate number of ETP common units issued in the Merger was the same that would be paid and issued if each share of the Company’s common stock had been converted into the Standard Mix of Consideration.

The election deadline for the merger consideration was August 25, 2014 and the notice of guaranteed delivery deadline was August 28, 2014. Based on the final results of the merger consideration elections and the terms of the Merger Agreement:

 

  holders of approximately 7% of the Company’s outstanding shares, or approximately 1,477,710 shares, elected and will receive the Standard Mix of Consideration;

 

  holders of approximately 1% of the Company’s outstanding shares, or approximately 264,536 shares, elected and will receive the Cash Consideration;

 

  holders of approximately 79% of the Company’s outstanding shares, or approximately 17,183,117 shares, elected the Unit Consideration, however, because the Unit Consideration was oversubscribed, such holders will receive $39.51 in cash and 0.7365 of an ETP common unit; and

 

  holders of approximately 13% of the Company’s outstanding shares, or approximately 2,869,212 shares, did not make a valid election or did not deliver a valid election form prior to the election deadline and, therefore are deemed to have elected and will receive the Standard Mix of Consideration.

No fractional ETP common units will be issued in the Merger, and the Company’s stockholders will receive cash in lieu of fractional ETP common units.

To the extent required, the information set forth in Item 3.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.
