ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.
ITEM 1.02 TERMINATION OF MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.
On November 28, MMC Energy, Inc. (“MMC”) announced that its operating subsidiary, MMC Energy North America, LLC, executed an Energy Management Agreement with Bear Energy L.P., an affiliate of The Bear Stearns Companies Inc. MMC expects to enter into an identical agreement shortly with Bear Energy covering MMC’s newly acquired facility located in Bakersfield, California. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
Bear Energy will provide Energy Management Services starting January 1, 2007 for MMC's natural gas fired power plants located in San Diego, California. Under the terms of the Agreement, Bear Energy has the exclusive agency right to purchase fuel, and sell energy and ancillary services for MMC.
Bear Energy will also act as MMC’s Scheduling Coordinator with the California Independents System Operator and the Contract Marketer with San Diego Gas and Electric Company, the local natural gas distribution company.
Bear Energy will receive a fixed monthly fee and a performance incentive for revenues generated in excess of MMC’s annual approved budget for the facilities.
MMC Energy, Inc. guarantees the performance of its subsidiaries under the agreement.
In connection with its new agreement with Bear Energy, as of October 31, 2006, MMC gave notice to PPM Energy, Inc. of termination of the Scheduling and Asset Optimization Agreement between the two companies. Under the terminated agreement, PPM Energy performed substantially similar services on behalf of MMC as those that will be performed by Bear Energy under the new agreement. MMC does not expect to pay any material early termination penalties in connection with such termination.
