01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. On December 4, 2024, Talen Energy Corporation (the "Company") executed an agreement (the "Repurchase Agreement") to repurchase (the "Repurchase") at least $600 million (up to a $1.0 billion maximum) in aggregate purchase price of shares of the Company's outstanding common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common Stock"), from affiliates of Rubric Capital Management LP (collectively, "Rubric"). Immediately prior to execution of the Repurchase Agreement, Rubric held approximately 22.3% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock. The Repurchase is priced at a 4% discount to a 15-day volume-weighted average price prior to the closing of the Repurchase and is conditioned on the completion of the Financing (as defined below). The Repurchase Agreement contains customary terms for this type of transaction, including but not limited to mechanics for determining the final share count and corresponding consideration to be delivered at closing, other closing mechanics, termination provisions and various acknowledgments, representations and warranties. The Repurchase is incremental to the Company's previously announced share repurchase program, which will have approximately $1.2 billion of remaining capacity available through 2026 after the Company closes the Repurchase. The proceeds from the Financing will be used, together with cash on hand, to fund the Repurchase, and both transactions are expected to close before December 31, 2024. Subject to market demand, the Company may increase the size of the Financing and use the additional proceeds to purchase additional shares of common stock from Rubric on the same terms as described above, or for general corporate purposes. This description of the Repurchase Agreement is a summary only, does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Repurchase Agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company's Annual Report
