This combination will position ourselves to take a lead role to develop that infrastructure."Duke said the transaction is expected to close early next year and should add to earnings immediately. Michael Phelps, chairman and chief executive officer of Westcoast, will become a member of Duke board of directors."The Westcoast Energy board of directors fully supports this combination and will recommend it to shareholders," said Phelps. "The bid represents a significant premium to our recent share price at a time when Westcoast Energy shares are trading at record highs, and it offers current Westcoast shareholders an opportunity to participate in the future growth prospects of Duke Energy, a leading multinational energy powerhouse."Under terms of the deal, Duke will pay for all of the outstanding shares of Westcoast with a combination of stock and cash.
