1 Thomas H. Warren Ram C. Sunkara February 22, 2011 Electric Cooperative M&A Issues: Power Asset M&A
2 Our Coop Power Project Experience In the past two years, we have assisted our Electric Cooperative clients in a number of Power Plant acquisitions and related transactions, including: Acquisition of interest in 2,300 MW coal-fired facilities Acquisition of a 300 MW gas-fired peaking facility Acquisition of a 340 MW gas-fired peaking facility Acquisition of a 500 MW gas-fired peaking facility Acquisition of a 1,250 MW combined-cycle facility In addition to our M&A transactions, we have counseled electric cooperatives in numerous financing transactions, wholesale power contracts, renewable power PPAs, leveraged lease arrangements and actions relating to mortgage bond indentures.
3 Why This Series Is Relevant Discernable Shift in Market and Mindset in the Coop Industry Increase in assets on market due to market changes Valuation of power generation assets has dropped in recent years Construction of new plants comes with considerable cost, permitting, construction and change in law risk Electric cooperatives continue to maintain above-average credit ratings and access to cheap capital for acquisition The Result: The market is ripe with acquisition opportunities for cooperatives who seek to meet longterm load growth needs.
