This Amendment No. 1 supplements and amends Items 4, 5, 6 and 7 of the statements on Schedule 13D relating to the common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Issuer Common Stock”), of NRG Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), filed on February 10, 2006 by each of: (i) Blackstone TG Capital Partners IV L.P., Blackstone Capital Partners IV-A L.P., Blackstone Participation Partnership IV L.P., Blackstone Family Investment Partnership IV-A L.P., Blackstone TG Capital Partners IV-B L.P., Blackstone Management Associates IV L.L.C., Peter G. Peterson and Stephen A. Schwarzman (the “Blackstone 13D”); (ii) Hellman & Friedman Capital Partners IV, L.P., H&F International Partners IV-A, L.P., H&F International Partners IV-C, L.P., H&F Executive Fund IV, L.P., H&F TGN AIV, L.P. and H&F Investors IV, LLC (the “H&F 13D”); (iii) KKR Millennium Fund (Energy) L.P., KKR Associates Millennium (Energy) L.P., KKR Millennium GP (Energy) LLC, and KKR Partners III, L.P. (Series I) (the “KKR 13D”); and (iv) TPG Advisors III, Inc. and TPG Advisors IV, Inc. (the “TPG 13D”, and together with the Blackstone 13D, H&F 13D and KKR 13D, each a “Schedule 13D”, and together, the “Schedules 13D”).  Each Item below amends and supplements the information disclosed under the corresponding Item of each of the Schedules 13D.

 

This Amendment No. 1 shall refer (a) to the Blackstone Funds (as defined in the Blackstone 13D), the H&F Partnerships (as defined in the H&F 13D), Millennium Energy and KKR Partners (each as defined in the KKR 13D) and the TPG Funds (as defined in the TPG 13D) collectively as the “Funds” and (b) to the persons and entities listed in clauses (i) through (iv) of the preceding paragraph collectively as the “Reporting Persons”.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of each Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding immediately before the penultimate paragraph thereof the following:

Underwriting Agreement.  On August 9, 2006, representatives of the Funds jointly invited several financial institutions to bid to purchase some or all of the Issuer Common Stock owned by the Funds.  On August 9, 2006, the Funds entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) among the Issuer, the Funds and Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (the “Underwriter”), pursuant to which the Funds agreed to sell an aggregate of 16,852,481 shares of Issuer Common Stock pursuant to an underwritten offering registered on the Issuer’s registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-130549).  The closing of these sales is expected to occur on August 15, 2006.

The foregoing summary of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Underwriting Agreement filed as Exhibit 4 hereto.

 

 

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5(a) and (b) of each Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding at the end thereof the following:

Collectively, the Funds directly own a total of 33,704,962 shares of Issuer Common Stock, or approximately 24.6% of the outstanding shares of Issuer Common Stock, based on 137,015,810 shares of Issuer Common Stock outstanding as of August 2, 2006, as reported in the Issuer’s Prospectus Supplement filed on August 11, 2006.  Because of the matters described in Item 4, the Funds may be deemed to have formed a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of Issuer Common Stock, and each Fund may therefore be deemed to have beneficial ownership of all Issuer Common Stock beneficially owned by each of the Funds.

The Funds are not acting and do not presently intend to act in a manner that could deem the Funds to be a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act or to act in concert with respect to voting of their shares of Issuer Common Stock or with respect to seeking to influence the management or policies of the Issuer. 

Neither the filing of Amendment No. 1 to this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that any Reporting Person or any other person described in Item 2 of the Schedules 13D or

 

22




 

listed in any schedule thereto is the beneficial owner of the Issuer Common Stock referred to herein or is a member of any “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership and membership in any such group is expressly disclaimed.

 

 

Item 6.

Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Item 6 of each Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented to incorporate by reference the amendments and supplements to Item 4 herein.

 

 

Item 7.

Material to Be Filed as Exhibits

Item 7 of each Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding at the end thereof the following:

4.  Underwriting Agreement, dated as of August 9, 2006, among the Issuer, the Funds and the Underwriter (incorporated by reference to Exhibit 10.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 11, 2006).

5.  Joint Filing Agreement, dated August 11, 2006, among the persons listed on the signature pages thereto relating to the joint filing of an amendment to certain statements on Schedule 13D (filed herewith).
