Subsequent Events [Abstract] |
Subsequent Events | Subsequent Events. Icahn Enterprises Distribution On August 6, 2013, the Board of Directors of the general partner of Icahn Enterprises declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $1.25 per depositary unit, which will be paid on or about October 9, 2013 to depositary unit holders of record at the close of business on August 16, 2013. Depositary unit holders will have until September 6, 2013 to make an election to receive either cash or additional depositary units; if a holder does not make an election, it will automatically be deemed to have elected to receive the dividend in cash. Depositary unit holders who elect to receive additional depositary units will receive units valued at the volume weighted average trading price of the units on NASDAQ during the 20 consecutive trading days ending October 4, 2013. No fractional depositary units will be issued pursuant to the dividend payment. Icahn Enterprises will make a cash payment in lieu of issuing fractional depositary units to any holders electing to receive depositary units. Any holders that would only be eligible to receive a fraction of a depositary unit based on the above calculation will receive a cash payment. Debt Offering On August 1, 2013, we issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes due 2020 (the “2020 Notes”) in a private placement not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The proceeds from the offering will be used for general partnership purposes. Automotive Rights Offering On July 11, 2013, Federal-Mogul received $500 million in connection with its previously announced common stock registered rights offering (the “Federal-Mogul Rights Offering”). In connection with the Federal-Mogul Rights Offering, we fully exercised our subscription rights under our basic and over subscription privileges to purchase additional shares of Federal-Mogul common stock for an aggregate of $434 million, which will be eliminated in our consolidated statement of cash flows. As a result of the exercise of our subscription rights, we indirectly owned approximately 80.7% of the outstanding common stock of Federal-Mogul as of July 11, 2013. Other Subsequent to June 30, 2013, as discussed above, as a result of obtaining approximately 80.7% of the outstanding common stock of Federal-Mogul, we and our subsidiaries are subject to the pension liabilities of Federal-Mogul and as members of the controlled group, we would be liable for any failure of Federal-Mogul to make ongoing pension contributions or to pay the unfunded liabilities upon a termination of its pension plans. If the plans of Federal-Mogul were voluntarily terminated, based on the most recent information provided the plans' actuaries, they would be underfunded by approximately $639 million as of June 30, 2013. These liabilities could increase or decrease, depending on a number of factors, including future changes in benefits, investment returns, and the assumptions used to calculate the liability.
