Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
On June 30, 2021, in connection with the exchange offers and consent solicitations previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 11, 2021 by Eastern Energy Gas Holdings, LLC (the “Company”), having received the necessary consents, and the Company’s subsidiary Eastern Gas Transmission and Storage, Inc. (“EGTS”) having accepted tendered notes in the exchange offers, from holders of the Company’s 3.900% Senior Notes due 2049, 4.600% Senior Notes due 2044, 4.800% Senior Notes due 2043, and 3.000% Senior Notes due 2029 (collectively, the “Notes”) as disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on June 25, 2021, entered into the Fifteenth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 30, 2021, by and between the Company and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (the “Trustee”), with respect to the Indenture, dated as of October 1, 2013 (the “Base Indenture”) as supplemented by the Fourteenth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2019, the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of December 1, 2014, the Third Supplemental Indenture, dated as of October 1, 2013, and the Thirteenth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2019, each between the Company and the Trustee (each such supplemental indenture relating to, or affecting the terms of, a series of Notes, together with the Base Indenture, an “Indenture” and collectively the “Indentures”), by and between the Company and the Trustee (the “Amending Supplemental Indenture”). The Amending Supplemental Indenture amends the Indenture for each such series of outstanding Notes to eliminate certain defeasance provisions, events of default and other related provisions applicable to such Notes.
The foregoing description of the Amending Supplemental Indenture does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amending Supplemental Indenture filed as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 8.01 Other Events
On June 30, 2021, EGTS transferred to EEGH all Notes tendered and accepted for payment in the exchange offers, which together had an aggregate outstanding principal amount of $1.6 billion, in satisfaction of $1.6 billion principal amount of EGTS’ $1.895 billion of long-term indebtedness owed to EEGH, and EEGH has caused such Notes to be cancelled.
On June 30, 2021, the remaining principal balance on the long-term indebtedness to EEGH of $295 million, which is equal to the excess of the $1.895 billion principal amount of such long-term indebtedness over the $1.6 billion aggregate principal amount of the Existing EEGH Notes transferred to the Company by EGTS following the exchange offers, was satisfied through a capital contribution. As a result, following the completion of the exchange offers and the capital contribution, EGTS’ $1.895 billion of long-term indebtedness to EEGH was cancelled in full.
