Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On June 17, 2008, Dynegy Holdings Inc. (“DHI “), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Dynegy Inc. (“Dynegy”), entered into a Facility and Security Agreement (the “Facility Agreement“) with Morgan Stanley Capital Group Inc., as lender, issuing bank, collateral agent and paying agent.
Availability under the Facility Agreement is contingent on natural gas prices rising above $13/MMBtu. For every dollar increase in 2009 natural gas prices above $13/MMBtu, $40 million in capacity will be available, up to a total of $300 million. In the event that the Facility Agreement is utilized, it will complement existing liquidity instruments as a source of additional letters of credit to meet the company’s collateral requirements. Letter of credit availability will accrue interest at an annual rate of 3.2 percent, and the facility will fully amortize over the course of 2009.
Such letters of credit will be available for the purpose of supporting certain commercial and trading contracts and related netting agreements described in DHI’s Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of April 2, 2007, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”).
The foregoing description of the Facility Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Facility Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
