TERRY CHRISTENBERRY EXPERT SOURCE FOR KANSAS CITY BUSINESS JOURNAL GREAT PLAIN ENERGY AND AQUILA STORY KANSAS CITY, Mo. (January 25, 2008) - Terry Christenberry, president of Christenberry Collet & Co., is quoted in the January 25-31, 2008, Kansas City Business Journal article, "Chesser used to ons, offs of big utility transactions." The article discusses the scrutiny that the Great Plains Energy Inc. proposed purchase of Aquila Inc. is under. The approval process for the deal, which was expected to last several months, has now lasted more than a year. From the story, "To get through the public service regulatory procedures in any state is time-consuming, takes a lot of preparation, a lot of work. That's certainly true," said Terry Christenberry, president of Kansas City-based investment bank Christenberry Collet & Co., which has been involved in several utility deals. "I think, unfortunately, the scrutiny this one has received because of some people is maybe a little out of control." Christenberry Collet provides merger and acquisition services to middle-market companies, both public and private. Areas of industry expertise include manufacturing, rural utility cooperatives, life sciences, agribusiness, and logistics and transportation. The firm frequently works on complex international and cross-border transactions. The Kansas City-based investment banking firm specializes in mergers and acquisitions, corporate fund-raising, and financial and strategic planning for corporate clients throughout the country and abroad.
