First Reserve Corp. and SK Capital Partners have agreed to acquire specialty chemicals company TPC Group Inc. (Nasdaq: TPCG). The deal is valued at approximately $850 million (including debt), or $40 per share in cash (20% premium to closing price on July 24, the last day before published reports of a possible buyout). Leveraged financing commitments have been made by BoA Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley Senior Funding and Jefferies. Perella Weinberg Partners is advising TPC Group. www.tpcgrp.com

Abraaj Capital, Bain Capital, The Blackstone Group and KKR have moved into the second round of bidding for Indonesian healthcare operator Siloam, according to Reuters. PT Lippo Karawaci is selling the company, which could be valued at upwards of $300 million.

Billabong (ASX: BBG) said that it has opened its books to TPG Capital. TPG currently holds around a 12.45% stake in the struggling Australian sportswear company, and last month offered to buy the remaining shares for A$1.45 a piece.
