Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 19, 2005, we entered into two agreements (collectively the "Purchase Agreements") to sell ONEOK's oil and gas production companies to TXOK Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $645 million.  The transaction is expected to close by October 14, 2005.
The sale, under the Purchase Agreements, includes natural gas and oil properties in four fields in Oklahoma and Texas with estimated reserves of approximately 240 billion cubic feet of natural gas equivalent, as of August 1, 2005.
The Purchase Agreements consist of a Stock Purchase Agreement between ONEOK, Inc. and TXOK Acquisition, Inc. for the sale of all of the capital stock of ONEOK Energy Resources Company, a Delaware corporation, and a Limited Liability Company Membership Interest Purchase Agreement between ONEOK Energy Resources Company and TXOK Acquisition, Inc. for the sale of all of the membership interest of ONEOK Energy Resources Holdings, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, and its subsidiaries.
The Purchase Agreements contain representations and warranties, covenants, indemnifications, and conditions to closing that are customary for transactions of this type. The final purchase price to be paid at closing is subject to adjustments, customary for transactions of this nature, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreements.
TXOK Acquisition, Inc. is a privately held oil and natural gas acquisition, exploration, exploitation, and development and production company, headquartered in Dallas, Texas.
As part of the transaction, it is anticipated that substantially all of the ONEOK production employees will be offered positions with the buyer.
