On November 2, 2015, Talen Energy Supply, LLC (“Talen Energy Supply”), a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of Talen Energy Corporation (“Talen Energy”), completed its previously announced acquisition of all of the equity interests of MACH Gen, LLC (“MACH Gen”), which indirectly owns the following electric generating facilities and certain other assets related thereto: (i) the combined-cycle gas fired “Harquahala” generating facility, located in Tonopah, Arizona; (ii) the gas/fuel oil-fired capable “Athens” generating facility, located in Greene County, New York; and (iii) the gas/fuel oil-fired capable “Millennium” generating facility, located in Worcester County, Massachusetts.
The cash purchase price paid in respect of the acquisition was $603 million, which represented the agreed upon purchase price of $1.175 billion plus the estimated net working capital of MACH Gen and its subsidiaries on the closing date and minus amounts outstanding under the First Lien Credit and Guaranty Agreement of New MACH Gen, LLC, a subsidiary of MACH Gen (“New MACH Gen”), as of the closing date (the “New MACH Gen Credit Agreement”). The cash purchase price is subject to post-closing adjustment based on the amounts by which the actual figures vary from the estimates provided at the closing. The cash purchase price paid was funded with cash on hand and a $400 million draw on Talen Energy Supply’s secured revolving credit facility.
Amounts outstanding under the New MACH Gen Credit Agreement consist of (i) a secured term loan of approximately $475 million that matures July 2022 and (ii) approximately $103 million drawn under a $160 million secured revolving credit facility that matures July 2021. The New MACH Gen Credit Agreement remains outstanding following the completion of the acquisition. The New MACH Gen Credit Agreement is guaranteed by each of New MACH Gen’s subsidiaries and is secured by a first priority security interest, subject to possible shared first lien status with certain permitted hedge and power sale agreements, in all of the assets of New MACH Gen and each guarantor, including the equity interests in New MACH Gen and each guarantor.
