New Mountain Vantage Says NFG's Petition With the PaPUC Without Merit
NEW YORK, Nov. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- New Mountain Vantage Advisers ("Vantage") today responded to allegations filed by National Fuel Gas Distribution Corporation (the "Utility Segment") in a petition with the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission ("PaPUC"). Vantage believes these allegations to be without merit and merely an attempt to interfere with the rights of shareholders of National Fuel Gas Company (NYSE: NFG) . "Vantage does not, and will not after a successful board contest, have control of NFG. We do not believe that NFG can use the PaPUC's regulations to prevent shareholders from making their own determinations as to who will best serve as their representatives on NFG's board of directors," said David DiDomenico, Managing Director of Vantage. "We would prefer to see NFG's board and officers spend their time acting on Vantage's recommendations, rather than using NFG's funds and resources to seek means to prevent the shareholders' voices from being heard.

Transcript of the Nike Golf media presentation at PGA Golf Club
It is my privilege to be here just because Nike had the most wins on TOUR this year as far drivers are concerned. They are really spearheading a cause here. They're a growing force in the golf industry. 13 PGA TOUR wins, K.J. Choi, that familiar sound off the tee with the driver and the SUMO, two times on the PGA TOUR, internationally he grabbed one, as well; Trevor Immelman just captured a win overseas; Tiger Woods, of course, won seven times this year, including a major championship, and the inaugural FedExCup. So there is a lot of ground to cover today, literally and figuratively as we watch him blast balls off the tee. I'd like to introduce someone right now who's very special to the program, used to be a member of our Golf Channel team and is now a growing force, as well, in the industry with Nike Golf.
