New Issue: Regency Energy details $80 million private placement of preferred units

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., Sept. 4 - Regency Energy Partners LP gave further details on an $80 million private placement of series A convertible preferred units in an 8-K filed Friday with the Securities and Exchange Commission. MTP Energy Management and Harvest Partners are the lead investors for the deal, which priced Thursday.

The 4,371,586 units were sold at $18.30 apiece, pay a fixed quarterly distribution of $0.445 per unit, and are convertible into common units on a one-for-one basis.
