Mazeikiu Nafta for $85 million to a wholly owned subsidiary of YUKOS Oil Company (RTS: YUKO). In addition, YUKOS will also purchase Williams' $75 million loan to Mazeikiu Nafta in connection with the sale. "Williams continues to make progress on its financial strengthening plan," said Steve Malcolm, chairman, president and CEO of Williams. "The sale of Mazeikiu Nafta is another step in planned asset sales that adds cash to our balance sheet, narrows the company's focus to our core asset base and will provide a solid foundation for the company to move forward. We are focused on retaining profitable, cash generating enterprises that provide vital services to our customers." Williams managed the operations of Mazeikiu Nafta, Lithuania's oil complex, since October 1999. The complex includes a 120,000 barrel per day capacity refinery, the Butinge offshore import/export terminal and the Birzai pipeline system. ### ABOUT WILLIAMS Williams, through its subsidiaries, connects businesses to energy, delivering innovative, reliable products and services.
