On April 1, 2015, Dynegy Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a First Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”) among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company, the lenders party thereto, Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch (“Credit Suisse”), as administrative agent, and the other parties thereto, amending the Credit Agreement, dated as of April 23, 2013 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company, the lenders from time to time party thereto, Credit Suisse, as administrative Agent, and the other parties thereto.  All capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement or First Amendment filed herewith, as applicable.

The loans issued pursuant to the Incremental Tranche A Revolving Loan Commitments bear interest, initially, at either (a) 2.75% per annum plus the LIBO Rate with respect to any LIBOR Loan or (b) 1.75% per annum plus the Base Rate with respect to any Base Rate Loan, with steps down based on a Senior Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement).

 

The foregoing summary highlights information contained in the First Amendment. It does not contain all the information that may be important to you and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement, the First Amendment and the additional related agreements attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 through 10.4 and incorporated herein by reference.

The Senior Secured Leverage Ratio used in a determination of Adjustable Applicable Margins shall be determined based on the delivery of a certificate of the Borrower (each, a “Quarterly Pricing Certificate”) by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to be sent by the Administrative Agent to each Lender), within 50 days of the last day of any Fiscal Quarter of the Borrower, which certificate shall set forth the calculation of the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio as at the last day of the Test Period ended immediately prior to the relevant Start Date (but determined on a Pro Forma Basis) and the Adjustable Applicable Margins which shall be thereafter applicable (until same are changed or cease to apply in accordance with the following sentences).  The Adjustable Applicable Margins so determined shall apply, except as set forth in the succeeding sentence, from the relevant Start Date to the earlier of (x) the date on which the next certificate is delivered to the Administrative Agent, and (y) the date which is 51 days (or 106 days in the case of the fourth Fiscal Quarter of the Borrower) following the last day of the Test Period in which the previous Start Date occurred (such earliest date, the “End Date”), at which time, if no certificate has been delivered to the Administrative Agent indicating an entitlement to new Adjustable Applicable Margins (and thus commencing a new Start Date), the Adjustable Applicable Margins shall be those set forth in the first sentence of this definition (such Adjustable Applicable Margins as so determined, the “Highest Adjustable Applicable Margins”).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this definition, the Adjustable Applicable Margins shall be the Highest Adjustable Applicable Margins (x) at all times during which there shall exist any Event of Default and (y) at all times prior to the date of delivery of the financial statements pursuant to Section 9.01(a) for the first full Fiscal Quarter of the Borrower following the Closing Date.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this definition or elsewhere in this Agreement, if it is subsequently determined that the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio set forth in any Quarterly Pricing Certificate delivered for any period is

inaccurate for any reason and the result thereof is that the Lenders received interest for any period based on an Applicable Margin that is less than that which would have been applicable had the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio been accurately determined, then, for all purposes of this Agreement, the “Applicable Margin” for any day occurring within the period covered by such Quarterly Pricing Certificate shall retroactively be deemed to be the relevant percentage as based upon the accurately determined Senior Secured Leverage Ratio for such period, and any shortfall in the interest theretofore paid by the Borrower for the relevant period pursuant to Section 2.08(a) and (b) as a result of the miscalculation of the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be (and shall be) due and payable under the relevant provisions of Section 2.08(a) or (b), as applicable, at the time the interest for such period was required to be paid pursuant to said Section on the same basis as if the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio had been accurately set forth in such Quarterly Pricing Certificate (and shall remain due and payable until paid in full, together with all amounts owing under Section 2.08(d), in accordance with the terms of this Agreement).  Such Applicable Margin shall be due and payable on the earlier of (i) the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default under Section 11.05 and (ii) promptly upon written demand to the Borrower (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after such written demand); provided that in the case of preceding clause (ii), nonpayment of such Applicable Margin as a result of any inaccuracy shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default (whether retroactively or otherwise), and no such amounts shall be deemed overdue (and no amounts shall accrue interest at the applicable default rate), at any time prior to the date that is five (5) Business Days after such written demand to the Borrower.

 

The Applicable Margins with respect to any Term Loans other than Initial Term Loans, Revolving Loans other than Initial Revolving Loans and Incremental Tranche A Revolving Loans and Unutilized Revolving Loan Commitments attributable to Revolving Loan Commitments other than the Initial Revolving Loan Commitments and Incremental Tranche A Revolving Loan Commitments, shall in each case be determined in accordance with the relevant provisions of this Agreement, and shall utilize the rules provided above to the extent specified in the respective Incremental Amendment, Extension or Refinancing Amendment, as applicable.”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

NR15-06

 

Dynegy Completes EquiPower and Brayton Point Acquisitions from

Energy Capital Partners

 

—Allocating $100 million of capital to reduce equity issued to fund transaction—

—Synergy target raised to $100 million from $40 million—

 

HOUSTON, TX (April 1, 2015) — Dynegy Inc. (NYSE: DYN), through its wholly owned subsidiary, has finalized its acquisition of EquiPower Resources Corp. and Brayton Point Holdings, LLC from Energy Capital Partners (ECP). The transactions include 10 generating stations, capable of generating 6.3 gigawatts of electricity into the New England and PJM power markets. The Company now owns nearly 20,000 MW operating in eight states.

 

“With the EquiPower and Brayton Point acquisitions, Dynegy has considerable scale in the PJM and New England markets and diversity of fuel and revenue streams across the portfolio,” said Dynegy President and Chief Executive Officer Robert C. Flexon. “New England and PJM are both attractive, well-functioning markets and we will benefit from having a more robust presence there.”

 

Dynegy’s other pending acquisition, of Duke Energy’s commercial generation and retail assets in the Midwest, has received all required approvals and is expected to close tomorrow, April 2.

 

“Planning for the integration of both of these acquisitions has advanced considerably since our initial expectation of $40 million in synergies and we now expect to achieve $100 million in synergies,” Flexon added. “Additionally, after careful evaluation of Dynegy’s liquidity position, outlook for the business, impact of higher expected synergies, and current price of common shares, we have decided to allocate $100 million of capital to reduce the equity that would have been issued under the original transaction terms.”

 

The original acquisition price was $3.45 billion including $3.25 billion of cash and $200 million of common stock, issued to ECP at closing. On March 30, Dynegy and ECP amended the purchase and sales agreements to increase cash consideration to $3.35 billion and reduce the common stock that would have been issued by 50% or 3,460,053 shares, based on the settlement price of $28.90 per share.

Forward-Looking Statement

 

This press release contains statements reflecting assumptions, expectations, projections, intentions or beliefs about future events that are intended as “forward-looking statements” particularly those statements concerning: the New England and PJM markets and the anticipated benefits associated with such markets; the anticipated closing of the acquisition of the Duke Energy Midwest Generation assets and retail business; and the anticipated synergies resulting from the acquisitions. Discussion of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from current projections, forecasts, estimates and expectations of Dynegy is contained in Dynegy’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Specifically, Dynegy makes reference to, and incorporates herein by reference, the section entitled “Risk Factors” in its 2014 Form 10-K. In addition to the risks and uncertainties set forth in Dynegy’s SEC filings, the forward-looking statements described in this press release could be affected by, among other things, (i) conditions to the closing of the Duke Energy Midwest acquisition may not be satisfied timely, or not at all; (ii) problems may arise in successfully integrating the Duke Energy, EquiPower and Brayton power facilities into Dynegy’s current portfolio, which may result in Dynegy not operating as effectively and efficiently as expected; (iii) Dynegy may be unable to achieve expected synergies or it may take longer than expected to achieve such synergies; (iv) any of the transactions may involve unexpected costs or unexpected liabilities; (v) the industry may be subject to future regulatory or legislative actions, including environmental, that could adversely affect Dynegy; and (vi) Dynegy may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors. Any or all of Dynegy’s forward-looking statements may turn out to be wrong. They can be affected by inaccurate assumptions or by known or unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond Dynegy’s control.
