Our only business consists of owning Cheniere Partners common units and subordinated units representing an aggregate approximately 48.6% limited partner interest in Cheniere Partners as of June 30, 2018. In June 2018, we reached a definitive agreement with Cheniere Energy, Inc. (“Cheniere”) (NYSE American: LNG) under which Cheniere will acquire all of the publicly-held shares of Cheniere Partners Holdings not already owned by Cheniere in a stock for share transaction pursuant to which our shareholders will receive a fixed exchange ratio of 0.4750 shares of Cheniere common stock for each outstanding publicly-held share of Cheniere Partners Holdings. The transaction is expected to close by the end of third quarter 2018, subject to customary closing conditions. Upon consummation of the transaction, Cheniere Partners Holdings will merge with and into a wholly owned subsidiary of Cheniere.
