On June 14, 2015, Niska Gas Storage Partners LLC (NYSE:NKA) announced that it and its managing member, Niska Gas Storage Management LLC, have entered into an agreement to be acquired by Brookfield Infrastructure and its institutional partners. Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, Brookfield Infrastructure and its institutional partners will acquire all of Niska Gas Storage Partners LLC's outstanding common units for $4.225 per common unit in cash and will acquire the managing member and the incentive distribution rights in Niska Gas Storage Partners LLC.
