On November 23, 2020, PSEG announced that it commenced an offer to exchange (as amended, the “Exchange Offer”) up to $500 million aggregate principal amount of new 8 5/8% senior notes due 2031 of PSEG (the “PSEG Notes”) for any and all of the outstanding $500 million aggregate principal amount of 8 5/8% senior notes due 2031 of PSEG Power (the “Power Notes”) held by eligible holders pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer to Exchange and Consent Solicitation Statement, dated November 23, 2020, as supplemented by Supplement No. 1 thereto, dated December 8, 2020 (the “Offer to Exchange”). The Exchange Offer expired as of 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on December 21, 2020.
On December 23, 2020, PSEG completed the Exchange Offer. Of the total aggregate principal amount of Power Notes outstanding,
$95,744,000, or 19.15%, were
exchanged for PSEG Notes. The PSEG Notes were issued pursuant to PSEG’s indenture, dated as of November 1, 1998 (as amended and supplemented from time to time), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as successor trustee to First Union National Bank.
The Exchange Offer has expired, and is no longer open to participation by any eligible holders of the Power Notes. The Exchange Offer was not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction. In connection with the settlement of the PSEG Notes issued in the Exchange Offer, PSEG entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2020, among the Company and the dealer managers named therein.
