Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations
Item 1.01: Amendment of a Material Definitive Agreement
On December 24, 2014, TECO Diversified, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of TECO Energy, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of October 17, 2014 with Cambrian Coal Corporation (the “SPA”). As previously reported, the SPA relates to the sale of all of the ownership interest in TECO Coal, LLC (“TECO Coal”) to Cambrian Coal Corporation, and was subject to termination by either party if specified closing conditions, including the purchaser’s obtaining financing in order to pay a portion of the purchase price, were not met by December 31, 2014. The Amendment extends this date, and now provides that the SPA, as amended, is subject to termination by either party if the specified closing conditions are not met by February 20, 2015. The Amendment also removes the restriction on the Company’s ability to be in contact with other potential purchasers.
The foregoing description of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this report, and is incorporated herein by reference.
On December 24, 2014, the Company issued a press release regarding the Amendment described above, which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
