ITEM 5.   Other Events

     On May 15, 2003, Cheniere Energy, Inc. (the "Company") issued a press
release announcing that Cheniere LNG, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company, had formed the partnership contemplated by the Limited Partnership
Agreement for Corpus Christi LNG, L.P. executed on June 11, 2003, but effective
as of May 15, 2003 by and among Corpus Christi LNG-GP, Inc., BPU LNG and
Cheniere LNG, Inc. BPU LNG is an affiliate of Sherwin Alumina Company.

     In May 2003, Cheniere formed a limited partnership, Corpus Christi LNG,
L.P. (Corpus LNG) to develop an LNG receiving terminal near Gregory, Texas
across the bay from Corpus Christi, Texas. Under the terms of the Limited
Partnership Agreement, Cheniere contributed its technical expertise and
know-how, and all of the work in progress related to the Corpus Christi project
in exchange for a 66.7% interest in Corpus LNG. BPU LNG contributed its,
approximately 210-acre tract of land plus related easements and additional
rights to a further 400 acres and will contribute the first $4,500,000 to fund
Corpus Christi LNG project expenses and 33.3% of additional expenses. BPU holds
a 33.3% interest in Corpus LNG. Cheniere will manage the project through its
general partnership interest held by its wholly-owned subsidiary. Cheniere has
engaged outside engineering, environmental and regulatory consultants and will
continue to focus on the project design and planning phase of the Corpus Christi
project. In order to advance the project, Corpus LNG will prepare the materials
to be filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission with the goal of
filing such materials in January 2004.
