On August 15, 2023, Hess Midstream LP., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Company”), Hess Midstream GP LP, a Delaware limited partnership and the general partner of the Company (the “General Partner”), Hess Midstream GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the general partner of the General Partner, GIP II Blue Holding, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Selling Shareholder”), and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, as underwriter (the “Underwriter”), entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”), pursuant to which the Selling Shareholder agreed to sell to the Underwriter, and the Underwriter agreed to purchase from the Selling Shareholder, subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth therein, 10,000,000 Class A shares representing limited partner interests in the Company (the “Class A Shares”) at a price of $28.80 per Class A Share, less underwriting discounts (the “Secondary Offering”). The Selling Shareholder received net proceeds from the Secondary Offering of approximately $285,900,000, after deducting underwriting discounts. The Company did not receive any proceeds in the Secondary Offering.
Pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Selling Shareholder also granted the Underwriter an option exercisable for 30 days to purchase up to an additional 1,500,000 Class A Shares at the same price per share as the Class A Shares purchased in the Secondary Offering, less underwriting discounts.
The Underwriting Agreement includes customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company and Selling Shareholder and customary conditions to closing, obligations of the parties and termination provisions. Additionally, under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company and the Selling Shareholder have agreed to indemnify the Underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or to contribute to payments the Underwriter may be required to make in respect of these liabilities.
Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company, the Selling Shareholder and Hess Investments North Dakota LLC have agreed not to sell or otherwise dispose of any Class A Shares held by them for a period ending 60 days after the date of the Underwriting Agreement without first obtaining the written consent of the Underwriter, subject to certain exceptions.
The Secondary Offering was made pursuant to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-270028), a base prospectus dated February 27, 2023, included as part of the registration statement, and a prospectus supplement, dated August 15, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act.
The Underwriting Agreement is attached hereto as an exhibit to provide interested persons with information regarding its terms, but is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company or the Selling Shareholder. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement were made only for purposes of the Underwriting Agreement as of specific dates indicated therein, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by such parties.
The foregoing description of the terms of the Underwriting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
The legal opinion of Latham & Watkins LLP relating to the validity of the Class A Shares is attached as Exhibit 5.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
