I. Commercial Review Mike Gray – VP, Commercial |
Dynegy takes a bullish view on natural gas, but within experts’ forecast range 22 The market expectation is natural gas prices will increase over time, though fundamental factors are in flux EIA positive revisions to 2010 – 2012 industrial natural gas consumption figures point to a more bullish view, though industrial demand recovery is still being digested by the market Natural Gas Price Forecast Range PIRA, Bentek, Goldman, Barclays, Credit Suisse, Macquarie, BNP Paribas; (2) As of 1/2/2013 (2) (1) |
Supplier economics are expected to dampen growth in natural gas supply over the next three years 23 Gas-directed drilling has declined by more than 50% over the last year In the last six months oil drilling has also pulled off its highs, ultimately impacting associated gas supply Debottlenecking rather than drilling is driving the growth in 2013 production levels Most dry-gas shale breaks even in a $4-$5/MMBtu environment WTI trading ~$15/MMBtu would likely limit a return to large scale gas-directed drilling Breakeven NYMEX Prices for Key US Shale Plays(2) Lower 48 Rig Count (1) (1) Source: Baker Hughes; (2) Source: PIRA, October 2012 |
Power sector’s demand for natural gas is expected to outpace natural gas supply growth, pushing natural gas prices higher 24 Supply growth expected to lag growth in demand over next three years Coal retirements and new gas-fired capacity expected to add 3 to 4 Bcf/day of gas demand by 2017 Annual growth in industrial demand expected to be moderate through 2016 – less than 0.5 Bcf/day LNG exports expected to become a factor in the 2015/16 timeframe, reaching 1 Bcf/day by the end of 2016 (1) Source: Bentek Natural Gas Supply Growth vs. Demand Growth(1) |

In the current year, we hedge to protect cash flows and earnings and reduce risk 28 We hedge our coal assets as a portfolio to narrow the range of energy margin outcomes and limit Gross Margin at Risk (GMaR) (1) Hedged position as of 1/2/2013, excluding tolling and capacity margins 2013 CoalCo Energy Margin Distribution(1) 2013 GasCo Energy Margin Distribution(1) We hedge our gas portfolio asset-by-asset using tools to provide more certainty around earnings and limit Gross Margin at Risk (GMaR) 2013 Guidance Range 2013 Guidance Range |
Finally, we look for opportunities to capture both the intrinsic value and extrinsic value of our assets 29 At-the-money Out-of-the-money In-the-money Gross Margin PEAKERS CCGT COAL Opportunistic value capture in real time and intra-month markets for peaking assets Commercial strategies focused on capturing option value through re-balancing positions as market-based generation expectations change Commercial strategies focused on capturing intrinsic value and protecting against downside risk for baseload assets while maintaining upside participation Extrinsic Value Intrinsic Value Spread Value Intrinsic Value = Inherent value today that can be captured by hedging the spread today and taking the hedge to delivery Extrinsic Value = Additional value that could be realized if prices changed (volatility) between now and the time of delivery |
Commercial Summary Dynegy is bullish natural gas market, primarily due to the significant impact on gas demand due to retirements Our flexible hedging strategy is specific to each CoalCo and GasCo; we hedge to limit downside risk while allowing participation in market recovery In the prompt year, we use hedging to protect cash flows and limit gross margin at risk Longer term, our portfolios are largely open to capture the upside potential we see in the market 30 |
IV. CoalCo Review Brian Despard – VP, CoalCo Asset Management |
CoalCo runs an environmentally compliant, low-cost fleet with a highly favorable outlook 32 Earnings positive for 2013 despite a low gas price environment CoalCo’s cost structure and capital expenditure outlook provide low-cost stability PRIDE initiatives underway for further gross margin improvement Positioned to benefit from market trends 1 2 3 4 |

We are identifying opportunities to reduce basis through transmission upgrades that relieve local congestion 41 We are analyzing opportunities for incremental investment in transmission upgrades that will alleviate congestion around our plants. Analysis could result in various projects, including: Transformer upgrade Line reconductoring Switch upgrade Parallel path additions Voltage upgrades Transmission Upgrades to Relieve Local Congestion 3 Baldwin Wood River Havana Hennepin A $1.00/MWh improvement in ATC basis improves earnings by ~$22 million |
CoalCo is more than a natural gas play; retirements will have a positive impact on pricing 42 4 Natural Gas Prices Energy Prices As coal generation is retired, increased gas consumption by gas-fired generation is expected to be the critical component driving increasing natural gas demand Power prices in MISO should improve as coal unit retirements cause gas units to increasingly set the marginal price Capacity Prices Retirements driven by MATS regulation and economics are expected to improve higher MISO capacity prices |
MISO Coal Resources Affected, EPA Survey Response (1) Total = 66 GW Few of our competitors are ready for the looming MATS compliance deadline 43 4 (1) Source: 4th Quarter EPA Survey Update of MISO Affected Coal Plants, January 11, 2013 Only 27% of MISO coal capacity does not require additional action to comply with EPA regulations 64% of coal capacity still requires a control to be installed or is undetermined (38% of MISO’s total generation capacity) |
Between now and 2016, we expect total net MISO retirements to be in the 10 - 11 GW range 44 (1) Source: MISO, Ventyx and Dynegy Analysis 4 1,500 MW of coal additions including Prairie State 545 MW likely CC/CT Gas additions Additions 13,400 MW of retirements, including 5,500 already announced Majority of retirements take place in 2015-2016 as MATS rules take effect Retirements Expected MISO Retirements, Net of Additions (2013 – 2016) MWs (1) Key Assumptions 11 GW of net retirements = 10% of MISO total capacity (10,953) 2013 2014 2015 2016 Net Retirements 1,616 127 (9,187) (3,224) |

Retirements could also increase power prices around our fleet and generate ~$85-$90M in additional revenue 47 MISO Central Dispatch Stacks (1) Current Generation Stack vs. Excluding 2.7GW Expected Retirements, net of Additions (1) Assumptions for MISO Central are: 2.7GW of capacity exiting by 2016 (retirements net of additions); $4.00 Henry Hub natural gas price, Dynegy variable costs of $20.50 per MWh, Prairie State fully online 4 With less efficient coal plants coming off the grid, the dispatch curve shifts, potentially increasing power pricing Based on 2012 load, MISO Central power prices would have risen ~$4/MWh ATC with retirements CoalCo generates ~22M mwh annually Baseload Average Peak Total Marginal Cost $/MWh Total Marginal Cost $/MWh After 2.7GW Retirements Stack compresses resulting in higher clearing prices |
CoalCo Summary 48 CoalCo’s low dispatch costs and completed environmental compliance position the fleet for long-term success Opportunities to mitigate basis risk and improve margin being pursued through retail sales and transmission projects We expect coal retirements to favorably impact CoalCo earnings in three ways: Places increased pressure on national supply of natural gas, which could lead to higher natural gas prices Lower reserve margins likely to improve capacity prices Increases gas units serving load, setting marginal price and increasing power prices |

In PJM, we expect capacity pricing to continue to reflect coal plant retirements and tighter reserve margins 55 3 Ontelaunee (MAAC) Kendall (RTO) PJM load forecast reduction Increased transmission import capability Potential new builds (~1-2 GW) Potential coal retirements in MAAC (0-2 GW) Higher capacity price bid caps for coal plants Limited incremental Demand Response potential PJM load forecast reduction Potential incremental Demand Response Potential coal retirements in RTO (1-4 GW) Higher capacity price bid caps for coal plants Increased transmission export capability PJM Capacity Auction Results $ mm Key Drivers for 2016/2017 Auction $25 M |
Retirements beyond those announced in PJM could increase power prices generating an additional ~$9-$10M 56 PJM Dispatch Stacks (1) Generation Stack Excluding 18GW Announced Retirements vs. Excluding 22.6GW Expected Retirements 3 With less efficient coal plants coming off the grid, the dispatch curve shifts, potentially increasing power pricing Based on an average 2012 load and an average 2011/2012 volume dispatch for Kendall and Ontelaunee, PJM power prices would rise an incremental ~$1.35/MWh ATC for both plants with 22.6GW retirements vs. 18GW retirements Baseload Average Peak Stack compresses resulting in higher clearing prices (1) Assumes that in addition to 18GW of retirements already announced in PJM, that 4.6GW of uneconomic coal capacity comes off line Total Marginal Cost $/MWh After 22.6GW Retirements Total Marginal Cost $/MWh After 18GW Retirements |
Bilateral contract expires Oct. 31, 2014 Going forward, we will continue to pursue bilateral sales and participate in the NYISO administered auctions Recent favorable FERC buyer-side mitigation ruling and retirement announcements driving clearing prices in Rest of State (ROS) monthly spot auction higher Longer term, we expect continuing strong ROS capacity market from: ~2.4-4.4 GW of announced and at risk retirements Limited in-state generation development pipeline Demand Response participation near saturation levels Transmission import projects still a number of years away 57 In NYISO, auction prices mean post-contract capacity revenue for Independence could reach ~$30M 4 (1) Reflects Danskammer retirements, excludes possible Indian Point retirement NYISO Monthly Spot Auction Price ($/kW-mo) Expected NYISO Net Retirements(1) (MW) NYISO Capacity Market |
Additionally, we expect ~$28M improvement for Independence delivered fuel costs; combined with ROS capacity offsets ~50% of expiring capacity contract 58 Long term objective: Eliminate dependence on relatively expensive Canadian supply and other non-core legacy transportation by the end of October 2015 Improving Independence Fuel Supply 4 Action Plan Source physical gas supply from the Marcellus shale area; target 100% supply from Marcellus by 2015 Seek storage and/or park-and-loan type flexibility options on the U.S. side of the border Optimize under-utilized Canadian transportation and storage Estimated Fuel and Transportation Savings $ MM |
GasCo has near-term development opportunities 59 Repower Oakland Expand Kendall Oakland’s RMR contract with CAISO provides marginal contribution to Dynegy’s EBITDA; excellent location near load The Opportunity The Oakland site provides a brownfield opportunity to repower with efficient gas fired peakers in a local reliability area that should receive premium capacity payments Rising use of intermittent resources (renewables) will increase real-time volatility and the need for peaking plants Conversion from oil to gas will be viewed positively by local community Next Steps Garner local support Evaluate development costs and requirements Kendall, located near the Chicago load, has room for expansion The Opportunity Robust capacity market in PJM with projections over $4/kW-mo in the forward market supports economic rationale Rising use of intermittent resources (renewables) will increase real-time volatility Kendall is a good candidate for potential steam turbine upgrade to increase unit capability by 60-90 MW per turbine Also considering new flexible technology that combines CCGT efficiency and peaker ramp time capabilities Next Steps Evaluate development costs and requirements 5 |
GasCo Summary Continuing to provide strong earnings and cash flow in 2013 Strong marketing efforts to highlight value of Moss Landing 6 & 7’s firming capabilities to CAISO PJM units should continue to see strong capacity revenues and potential increases in pricing as reserve margins tighten Independence benefiting from Marcellus shale production that will improve spark spreads and lower gas transportation expense Repowering and expansion opportunities at Oakland and Kendall 60 |
VI. Regulatory Update Dean Ellis – Senior Director, Government Affairs |
Vision and Visibility are the keys to our regulatory success 62 Identify strategic allies and build coalitions and partnerships Publicly advocate for policy that is leveraging to Dynegy Promote and educate on Dynegy’s contribution to local and state economies Increase visibility with key state and federal legislators |
Our focus is on the highest priority regulatory issues impacting shareholder value 63 Market Design Advance market designs that support competitive markets Transparency into pricing, transmission and demand response Focus on capacity market reform Once Through Cooling (OTC) Coal Ash Generator Retirements In MISO, we have invested $1 billion to prepare our coal fleet for more stringent environmental rules Advocate against environmental waivers for non-compliant facilities or other interventions |
The time is now to effectuate a number of Market Design efforts, focusing on capacity markets Support transition from a vertical demand curve toward a sloping demand curve, which more accurately reflects the value of capacity Work toward comprehensive capacity reform, beginning with support for a forward Resource Adequacy (RA) program, and subsequently a “capabilities” market Minimum Offer Price Rule (MOPR) revisions and comparable treatment for demand response to ensure adequate price signals Enforcement of buyer-side mitigation rules and continued engagement in triennial demand curve reset (2014-2017 market period) to ensure adequate cost of new entry (CONE) Support strict buyer-side mitigation rules, and evolution to a sloped demand curve to ensure price certainty 64 MISO PJM CAISO NYISO ISO- NE Market Design Priorities Targets of Advocacy Efforts Tools ISOs State regulators Strategic allies ISO stakeholder processes Education Direct outreach Interventions and briefs |
Vigorously advocate for a level playing field Advocating for retirement of non-compliant plants in PJM and MISO is a critical area of regulatory effort 65 Generator Retirement Priorities All generation owners should be held equally to environmental regulations and pollution control agreements Key Message Ease exit for retiring units Market rules should not impede uneconomic and/or non-compliant units from retiring Political and economic impact of retirements must be proactively managed Key Messages Target Targets ISOs Regulators Policy makers Regulators Tools Tools Stakeholder process Direct outreach Education Direct outreach Legal challenges Interventions Direct outreach |
After a thorough and lengthy development process, we believe MATS is unlikely to be overturned 66 12/1997 EPA issued Mercury Study Report to Congress 1/2004 EPA proposed rule for controlling mercury from power plants with two approaches 3/2005 EPA issued final Clean Air Mercury Rule (CAMR) 2/2008 DC Circuit Court vacated CAMR 3/2011 EPA proposed new rule to replace the vacated CAMR – Mercury and Air Toxics Standards (MATS) 12/2011 Final MATS rule issued 4/2012 MATS rule became effective 6/2012 Senate defeated a Republican measure to overturn MATS; the measure required 50 votes but only received 46; had it passed, the President would have vetoed it 4/2015 Compliance deadline 4/2016 Second compliance deadline (with State’s extension) 4/2017 Final compliance deadline (with Presidential exemption) MATS is currently under judicial review; however, we believe it is unlikely that the court would vacate the entire rule The rule has undergone a thorough and lengthy development process over the last 15 years The EPA is under a consent decree to develop MATS Many generator owners, including Calpine and Exelon, have intervened in the MATS litigation process on the side of EPA to advocate for implementation of the rule Mercury and Air Toxics Standards Timeline Source: EPA |
The clock is ticking on MATS compliance – time is up for generators behind on the process 67 The fourth year will be broadly available “where necessary for the installation of controls” but reliability concerns must be justified and “early, coordinated, and orderly planning” must be undertaken to “promote predictability and reduce uncertainty” EPA has concluded that 4 years should be sufficient to comply with MATS, and this is supported by DOE analysis and more time is generally not expected to be needed to install control equipment, but an additional year may be granted should “unusual circumstances” arise and the additional year must be in the national security interests Source: Presidential memorandum (Dec. 21, 2011), Federal Register REQUIREMENTS FOR ONE-YEAR STATE EXTENSION TO 2016 REQUIREMENTS FOR 2ND ONE-YEAR EXEMPTION TO 2017 |
68 Federal Coal Ash California OTC State Once Through Cooling rule has been issued Dynegy in discussions on compliance deadlines and compliance measures Worst case could require cooling towers at Moss Landing However, significant progress in negotiations has been made to-date, with cost-effective alternatives New regulations could require measures from modification and monitoring of active ponds, to closure of inactive ponds, to closure of active ponds and construction of new landfills Dynegy currently owns 8 coal boilers, 8 inactive ponds, and 6 active ponds Final Coal Ash rule possible in late 2013 Draft Coal Ash legislation in the US House and Senate |
Regulatory Summary Our Regulatory approach is to ensure high visibility around issues that most impact our revenues and costs Market Design efforts are focused on MISO and CAISO, where capacity market reform is most needed and has the biggest impact on Dynegy We are focusing on MISO and PJM in advocating for generator retirements as MATS compliance deadlines draw near Federal Coal Ash and Once through Cooling regulations in California are environmental issues on the horizon that we are actively addressing 69 |

Ratings Agency Feedback 91 Source: Moody’s and S&P ratings reports. Rating ‘B2’ Corporate Family B Outlook Stable Stable Commentary The ratings consider headwinds facing Dynegy, including the current low power price environment, the near-term maturity of two in-the-money power contracts and an indication that consolidated cash flows will decline over the near-term. Voluntary debt reduction completed late last year and anticipated future revenues from capacity revenues provides support for B2 rating. Concurrently, Moody’s affirmed GasCo’s senior secured term loan rating at B2 and revised its rating to stable from positive. GasCo rating reflects challenged business and highly leveraged profile over the forecast period, although repayment of $325 of the term loan in Q4 has improved leverage profile materially. Increased corporate family rating of GasCo to ‘B’ from CCC+ with stable outlook. Raised issue rating on GasCo Term Loan to BB- from B an affirmed ‘1’ recovery on it. Highlighted management team and board of directors with favorable industry standard and experience. 1 S&P did not rate Dynegy Inc on a proforma basis. Rating reflects updated GasCo rating |

Assumptions around MISO reserve margins 94 Dynegy Assumptions: Expected Case: Status quo continues Peak load CAGR 0.8% CAGR, 13.4 GW of retirements 2013-16, Annual age related retirements of 285 MW beginning 2017, 2.6 GW of likely additions 2013-15, with 1.5 GW average annual additions starting 2017 . Upside Case: Utilities slow to respond to a pick up in load growth Peak load CAGR 1.1% CAGR, 20 GW of retirements 2013-16. Annual age related retirements of 285 MW beginning 2017, 2.6 GW of likely additions 2013-15, with 3 GW average annual additions starting 2016 MISO Implied Assumptions: Applying MISO’s 2013 planning reserve margin of 14.2%, to its 2016 resource requirement of 106 GW implies peak load of ~93 GW. – dividing the peak load into MISO’s 102.5 GW resource expectation results in a 10% reserve margin. |

The estimated net income presented herein represents the net income of the Predecessor Period and the Successor Period on a combined basis. In addition, due to the application of fresh-start accounting, the results of the Successor Period will not be comparable to the Predecessor Period. Our 2012 consolidated results reflect the results of our accounting predecessor, which was a wholly-owned subsidiary, until the Merger on September 30, 2012. Therefore, certain results related to Legacy Dynegy are not included in our consolidated results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012. Additionally, effective June 5, 2012, we completed the DMG Acquisition. As a result, the results of our Coal segment, as well as certain items in the Other segment, are not included in our consolidated results for the period from January 1, 2012 through June 5, 2012. However, we have included the Adjusted EBITDA related to Legacy Dynegy for the period prior to the Merger and the Coal segment for the period from January 1, 2012 through June 5, 2012 in this adjustment because management uses Enterprise-wide Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the operating performance of our entire power generation fleet. The following table presents a reconciliation of Legacy Dynegy Adjusted EBITDA to Operating loss: DYNEGY INC. ESTIMATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS TWELVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012 (UNAUDITED) (IN MILLIONS) The following table provides preliminary summary financial information regarding our enterprise-wide Adjusted EBITDA for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012. These amounts are estimates and will be finalized in connection with the filing of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, which is expected to occur in March 2013.
