Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement On December 13, 2024, Talen Energy Supply, LLC (the "Borrower"), a direct subsidiary of Talen Energy Corporation (the "Company"), amended its credit agreement to provide for an incremental Term Loan B credit facility (the "Credit Agreement Amendment"). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement Amendment, the Borrower obtained a new incremental tranche of $850 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured Term B loans (the "Incremental Term B Loans"). As more fully described in Item 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K (this "Report"), the Company used the proceeds from the Incremental Term B Loans, together with cash on hand, to repurchase (the "Repurchase") shares of its outstanding common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common Stock") from affiliates of Rubric Capital Management LP (collectively, "Rubric"). The Incremental Term B Loans will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to either (1) a fluctuating rate equal to the highest of (A) the rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York in effect on such day, plus 0.50%, (B) the rate of interest per annum publicly announced from time to time by The Wall Street Journal as the "Prime Rate" in the United States, and (C) Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement Amendment) for the applicable interest period plus the Applicable ABR Margin (as defined in the Credit Agreement Amendment) or (2) the relevant Applicable Term SOFR Margin (as defined in the Credit Agreement Amendment) plus the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement Amendment). The Incremental Term B Loans have a final maturity date of December 13, 2031, and are subject to the same representations and warranties, guarantees, affirmative covenants, negative covenants and customary events of default as the Borrower's existing senior secured Term Loan B due in 2030.
