Williams Partners plans to use the net proceeds from the offering to repay amounts outstanding under the partnership's commercial paper program, to fund capital expenditures and for general partnership purposes.
Williams Partners expects that the completion of this transaction satisfies its planned 2013 equity financing needs and, as a result, the partnership does not intend to issue any additional equity through the balance of 2013.
