Section 2 – Financial Information
Item 2.03(a). Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation
On April 3, 2023, Constellation Energy Generation, LLC (Constellation) completed separate reofferings for six issues of tax-exempt pollution control revenue refunding bonds (the Bonds) totaling, in the aggregate, $435,470,000 in principal amount, which were issued by various issuers and for which Constellation is the primary obligor. Constellation had previously repurchased all of the outstanding Bonds. While the Bonds were held by Constellation, they remained outstanding as a contractual matter, but were considered extinguished for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the reoffering of the Bonds by Constellation will be recorded as a long-term liability on Constellation’s balance sheet.
In connection with the reoffering of the Bonds, the interest rate on the Bonds has been modified such that various issues of Bonds bear interest at term rates ranging from 4.100% to 4.450%. Each issue of the Bonds will be subject to mandatory purchase on the applicable mandatory purchase date for such issue at a purchase price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest for the applicable issue.
This report is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the Bonds. The Bonds were reoffered pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act). The Bonds have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and, unless so registered, the Bonds may not be offered or sold in the United States or to U.S. persons except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
