Item 1.01.      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On March 2, 2020, NextDecade LNG, LLC (“Seller”), a wholly owned subsidiary of NextDecade Corporation (the “Company”), closed the transactions (the “Closing”) contemplated by that certain Omnibus Agreement, dated February 13, 2020, with Spectra Energy Transmission II, LLC (“Buyer”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Enbridge Inc. (“Enbridge”), pursuant to which Seller sold one hundred percent of the equity interests in Rio Bravo Pipeline Company, LLC (the “RBPL Transporter”) to Buyer in consideration of (i) approximately $17.4 million plus (ii) the amount of direct and indirect costs incurred by the RBPL Transporter, the Company or any of its other affiliates in respect of the Rio Bravo Pipeline (as defined below) from October 1, 2019 through the Closing (the “Purchase Price”); provided, that the Purchase Price may not exceed $25 million. Buyer paid $15 million of the Purchase Price to Seller at the Closing and the remainder will be paid within five business days after the date that Rio Grande LNG, LLC, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, has received, after a final positive investment decision, the initial funding of financing for the development, construction and operation of the Company’s proposed Rio Grande liquefied natural gas export terminal facility at the Port of Brownsville in southern Texas (the “LNG Facility”), which is in development.  In connection with the Closing, Rio Grande LNG Gas Supply LLC (formerly known as RioGas Marketing, LLC) (“Customer”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into (i) a Precedent Agreement for Firm Natural Gas Transportation Service for the Rio Bravo Pipeline (the “RBPL Precedent Agreement”) with the RBPL Transporter and (ii) a Precedent Agreement for Natural Gas Transportation Service for Valley Crossing Pipeline (the “VCP Precedent Agreement”) with Valley Crossing Pipeline, LLC (the “VCP Transporter”). The VCP Transporter and, as of the Closing, the RBPL Transporter are wholly owned subsidiaries of Enbridge. The RBPL Transporter is developing the proposed Rio Bravo Pipeline, a 137-mile interstate natural gas pipeline (the “Rio Bravo Pipeline”), to supply natural gas to the LNG Facility. The Valley Crossing Pipeline is owned and operated by the VCP Transporter.

 

Pursuant to the RBPL Precedent Agreement, the RBPL Transporter agreed to provide Customer with firm natural gas transportation services on the Rio Bravo Pipeline in a quantity sufficient to match the full operational capacity of each proposed liquefaction train of the LNG Facility. The RBPL Transporter’s obligation to construct, install, own, operate and maintain the Rio Bravo Pipeline is conditioned on its receipt, no later than December 31, 2023, of notice that Customer or its affiliate has issued a full notice to proceed to the engineering, procurement and construction contractor (the “EPC Contractor”) for the construction of the LNG Facility. Under the RBPL Precedent Agreement, in consideration for the provision of such firm transportation services, the RBPL Transporter will be remunerated on a dollar-per-dekatherm, take-or-pay basis, subject to certain adjustments, over a term of at least twenty years, all in compliance with the federal and state authorizations associated with the Rio Bravo Pipeline.

 

Pursuant to the VCP Precedent Agreement, the VCP Transporter agreed to provide Customer with natural gas transportation services on the Valley Crossing Pipeline in a quantity sufficient to match the commissioning requirements of each proposed liquefaction train of the LNG Facility. The VCP Transporter’s obligation to construct, install, own, operate and maintain the necessary interconnection to the LNG Facility  and the Rio Bravo Pipeline is conditioned on its receipt, no later than December 31, 2023, of notice that Customer or its affiliate has issued a full notice to proceed to the EPC Contractor for the construction of the LNG Facility. The VCP Transporter will be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, to construct, install, own, operate and maintain the tap, riser and valve facilities (the “VCP Transporter Facilities”), which shall connect to the Customer’s custody transfer meter and such other facilities as necessary in order for the LNG Facility to receive gas from the VCP Transporter Facilities (the “Customer Facilities”). Customer will be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, to construct, install, own, operate and maintain the Customer Facilities. Under the VCP Precedent Agreement, in consideration for the provision of the commissioning transportation services, the VCP Transporter will be remunerated on the same dollar-per-dekatherm, take-or-pay basis as set forth in the RBPL Precedent Agreement for the duration of such commissioning services, all in compliance with the federal and state authorizations associated with the Valley Crossing Pipeline.

  

The foregoing summaries of the material terms of the RBPL Precedent Agreement and the VCP Precedent Agreement do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by, reference to the full text of such agreements, copies of which will be filed as exhibits to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.
