Item 5.01. Changes in Control of the Registrant.

 

On December 14, 2012, GenOn Energy, Inc. (“GenOn”), a Delaware corporation, completed its previously announced merger with Plus Merger Corporation (“Merger Sub”), a Delaware Corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of NRG Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“NRG”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 20, 2012 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among NRG, Merger Sub and GenOn.  Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub was merged with and into GenOn (the “Merger”), with GenOn continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of NRG.

 

Immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, GenOn was the ultimate parent company of GenOn Americas Generation, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”).  As a result of the Merger, a change of control of the Company occurred.  The ultimate parent company of the Company is now NRG.
