Note that certain of the corporations listed above will be converted to limited liability companies following or in connection with the Effective Date.
(1) It is anticipated that on the Effective Date, after GenOn has issued the Notes and transferred all such indebtedness represented by the Notes and the obligations thereunder to Purchaser, GenOn will be liquidated. See Section 3(b) hereto for further detail.
2. Securities Act Exemption Applicable.
The Applicants expect that their Plan of Reorganization, as amended and supplemented to date (the Plan of Reorganization) will be supplemented and modified to an provide for an issuance of an aggregate principal amount of up to $400.0 million of Notes to holders of certain Allowed Claims and Allowed Interests (each as defined in the Plan of Reorganization, and collectively referred to as the Claims) on the Effective Date pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Plan of Reorganization. The Notes will be issued pursuant to the indenture to be qualified under this Form T-3 (the Indenture), a copy of which will be filed by amendment as Exhibit T3C to this application. Copies of the Plan of Reorganization and Disclosure Statement, as amended and supplemented to date are included as Exhibits T3E-1 and T3E-2, respectively, to this application.
Generally, Section 1145(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code exempts an offer and sale of securities under a plan of reorganization from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), and state securities laws if three principal requirements are satisfied: (i) the securities must be offered and sold under a plan of reorganization and must be securities of the debtor, an affiliate participating in a joint plan of reorganization with the debtor or a successor to the debtor under the plan of reorganization; (ii) the recipients of the securities must hold a prepetition or administrative expense claim against the debtor or an interest in the debtor; and (iii) the securities must be issued entirely in exchange for the recipients claim against or interest in the debtor, or principally in such exchange and partly for cash or property. The Applicants believe that the offer of the Notes under the solicitation of acceptances for the Plan of Reorganization and the exchange of the Claims for Notes, together with certain other consideration, under the Plan of Reorganization will satisfy the requirements of Section 1145(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code and, therefore, such offer and exchange is exempt from the registration requirements referred to above.

The following is a general description of certain provisions of the Indenture, and the description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Indenture to be filed by amendment as Exhibit T3C therewith. Capitalized terms used below and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Indenture.
(a) Events of Default; Withholding of Notice of Default.
The occurrence of any of the following events will constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture:
(i) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the Notes;
(ii) default in the payment when due of the principal of, or premium, if any, on the Notes;
(iii) failure by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiaries for 45 days after written notice to the Company by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% (with notice to Trustee if sent by Holders) in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to comply with any of the agreements in the Indenture;
(iv) the acceleration of the maturity of any Indebtedness for money borrowed (other than the notes of such series) by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than any Excluded Subsidiaries) having an aggregate principal amount outstanding in excess of $[·] million, if such acceleration is not rescinded or annulled, or such indebtedness shall not have been discharged, within 15 days after the date of such acceleration;
(v) failure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than any Excluded Subsidiaries) to pay final and non-appealable judgments aggregating in excess of $[·] million, which judgments are not covered by indemnities or third-party insurance, which judgments are not paid, discharged, vacated or stayed for a period of 60 days;
(vi) except as permitted by the Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantee of any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Excluded Subsidiaries) shall for any reason cease to be in full force and effect or be declared null and void or any responsible officer of such Guarantor, as the case may be, denies that it has any further liability under its Guarantee or gives notice to such effect, in each case, other than by reason of the termination of the Indenture or the release of any such Guarantee in accordance with the Indenture;
(vii) with respect to any Collateral, individually or in the aggregate, having a fair market value in excess of $[·] million, any of the Note Security Documents ceases to be in full force and effect, or any of the Note Security Documents ceases to give the holders of the Notes the Liens purported to be created thereby, or any of the Note Security Documents is declared null and void or the Company or any Guarantor denies in writing that it has any further liability under any Note Security Document (in each case other than in accordance with the terms of the Indenture or any of the Note Security Documents);
(viii) the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than its Excluded Subsidiaries):
(1) commences a voluntary case;
(2) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case;
(3) consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property;
(4) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or;
(5) generally is not paying its debts as they become due;
(ix) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:
(1) is for relief against the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than its Excluded Subsidiaries);
(2) appoints a custodian of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than its Excluded Subsidiaries) for all or substantially all of the property of the Company or any Guarantor; or
(3) orders the liquidation of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than its Excluded Subsidiaries);
and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days.
In the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (viii) or (ix) listed above, with respect to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than any of its Excluded Subsidiaries), all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Upon any such declaration, the Notes shall become due and payable immediately.
The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase); provided, however, that the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of the Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
Subject to certain limitations, holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of a series may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any power. The Trustee may withhold from holders of Notes of such series notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest.
If a Default or Event of Default with respect to any Series of Securities occurs and is continuing and if it is known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee will mail to Holders of such Securities a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs or, if later, after a Trust Officer has actual knowledge of any Default or Event of Default. Except in the case of a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Security, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Securities.
(b) Authentication and Delivery of the Notes; Application of Proceeds.
The Notes to be issued under the Indenture may from time to time be executed on behalf of the Company by manual or facsimile signature by one of its Officers and delivered to the Trustee for authentication and delivery in accordance with the Companys order and the Indenture. The Trustee shall, upon receipt of a written Authentication Order of the Company signed by at least one Officer, (and other deliverables required under the Indenture), authenticate Securities for original issue under the Indenture. The aggregate principal amount of Securities outstanding at any time may not exceed the aggregate principal amount of Securities authorized for issuance by the Company pursuant to one or more Authentication Orders, except as provided in the Indenture. The Notes shall be in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate
Securities. An authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with Holders, the Company or an Affiliate of the Company.
The Notes will be issued to holders of Claims. As a result, the Company will not realize any proceeds from such issuance.
(c) Release of Collateral.
Pursuant to Article XI of the Indenture, subject to certain subsections of Section 11.03 of the Indenture, Collateral may be released from the Lien and security interest securing the Notes created by the Note Security Documents at any time or from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Note Security Documents or as provided in the Indenture and the Collateral Trustees Liens may be subordinated, in whole or in part, on any Collateral at any time or from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Note Security Documents or as provided in the Indenture.
(d) Satisfaction and Discharge.
The Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect as to all Notes issued hereunder, when (i) either (a) all Notes that have been authenticated, except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes for whose payment money has been deposited with the Trustee or Paying Agent and thereafter repaid to the Company, have been delivered to the Trustee for such Notes for cancellation; or (b) all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the distribution of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and the Company or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of the Holders, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable Government Securities, or a combination of cash in U.S. dollars and non-callable Government Securities, in such amounts as will be sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay and discharge the entire Indebtedness on the Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium, if any, and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; (ii) in respect of subclause (b) of clause (i) above, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) and the deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Company or any Guarantor is a party or by which the Company or any Guarantor is bound; (iii) the Company or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all sums payable by it under this Indenture; and (iv) the Company has delivered irrevocable instructions to the Trustee under the Indenture to apply the deposited money toward the payment of the Notes at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be. In addition, the Company must deliver an Officers Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied.
(e) Evidence of Compliance with Conditions and Covenants.
The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, an Officers Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Company is taking or
proposes to take with respect thereto) and that to the best of his or her knowledge no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which payments on account of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Notes is prohibited or if such event has occurred, a description of the event and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. The Companys fiscal year ends December 31st.
So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee, forthwith upon any Officer becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, an Officers Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.
9. Other Obligors.
