Dynegy Anticipates Re-organizing into Coal, Gas Subsidiaries

As part of an anticipated reorganization associated with sought new credit facilities, Dynegy would split its generating assets into two subsidiaries. One subsidiary, GasCo, would own a portfolio of eight primarily natural gas-fired intermediate (combined cycle) and peaking (combustion and steam turbines) power generation facilities across the West, Midwest and Northeast regions of the United States, totaling 6,771 MW of generating capacity. Another subsidiary, CoalCo, would own a portfolio of six primarily coal-fired baseload power generation facilities located in the Midwest, totaling 3,132 MW of generating capacity. Dynegy's remaining assets (including its leasehold interests in the Danskammer and Roseton facilities) would not be a part of either GasCo or CoalCo.
