ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS AND REQUIRED FD DISCLOSURE. We have approximately $922 million in aggregate principal amount of senior and senior subordinated notes outstanding, which were issued under various indentures to which we are party. In connection with our pending merger with Enterprise Products Partners L.P., or Enterprise, which we anticipate will occur during the third quarter of 2004, a subsidiary of Enterprise offered to purchase all of our outstanding senior and senior subordinated notes, contingent on the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the closing of our merger. In connection with the tender offers, the Enterprise subsidiary solicited consents to proposed amendments to our indentures that would eliminate certain covenants and events of default. Holders who tendered notes in response to the offer are deemed to have consented to the amendments. By 5:00 p.m. on August 13, 2004, over 98% of each series of our outstanding senior and senior subordinated notes had been tendered and, thus, consented to those amendments. On August 17, 2004, we entered into supplemental indentures that contain those amendments with JPMorgan Chase Bank, in its capacity as trustee under each of our indentures, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, in its capacity as trustee under our senior notes indenture. These amendments will not be operative until after the satisfaction of certain additional conditions included in the closing of our merger. This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed for the purpose of filing each of those supplemental indentures. ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS (c) Exhibits.
