	Many of our power generation facilities operate, wholly or partially, without long-term power sale agreements.

	Our financial performance may be impacted by future decreases in oil and natural gas prices, significant and unpredictable price fluctuations in the wholesale power markets and other market factors that are beyond our control.

	•	increases and decreases in generation capacity in our markets, including the addition of new supplies of power from existing competitors or new market entrants as a result of the development of new generation plants, expansion of existing plants or additional transmission capacity;
	•	changes in power transmission or fuel transportation capacity constraints or inefficiencies;
	•	electric supply disruptions, including plant outages and transmission disruptions;
	•	weather conditions;
	•	changes in the demand for power or in patterns of power usage, including the potential development of demand-side management tools and practices;
	•	availability of competitively priced alternative power sources;
	•	development of new fuels and new technologies for the production of power;
	•	natural disasters, wars, embargoes, terrorist attacks and other catastrophic events;

We rely on power transmission facilities that we do not own or control and are subject to transmission constraints within a number of our core regions. If these facilities fail to provide us with adequate transmission capacity, we may be restricted in our ability to deliver wholesale electric power to our customers and we may either incur additional costs or forego revenues. Conversely, improvements to certain transmission systems could also reduce revenues.

	Because we own less than a majority of some of our project investments, we cannot exercise complete control over their operations.

	Future acquisition activities may have adverse effects.

	Our level of indebtedness could adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital to fund our operations, expose us to the risk of increased interest rates and limit our ability to react to changes in the economy or our industry.

	•	increasing our vulnerability to general economic and industry conditions;
	•	requiring a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on our indebtedness, therefore reducing our ability to pay dividends to holders of our preferred or common stock or to use our cash flow to fund our operations, capital expenditures and future business opportunities;
	•	limiting our ability to enter into long-term power sales or fuel purchases which require credit support;
	•	exposing us to the risk of increased interest rates because certain of our borrowings, including borrowings under our new senior secured credit facility are at variable rates of interest;
	•	making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to our notes;
	•	placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt;
	•	limiting our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital including collateral postings, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, acquisitions and general corporate or other purposes; and

Table of Contents

	Because the historical financial information may not be representative of our results as a combined company or capital structure after the Acquisition, and NRG’s and Texas Genco’s historical financial information are not comparable to their current financial information, you have limited financial information on which to evaluate us, NRG and Texas Genco.

	Goodwill and/or other intangible assets that we will record in connection with the Acquisition are subject to mandatory annual impairment evaluations and as a result, the combined company could be required to write off some or all of this goodwill and other intangibles, which may adversely affect its financial condition and results of operations.

The NRG Energy, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan became effective upon our emergence from bankruptcy. The Long-Term Incentive Plan, which was adopted in connection with the NRG plan of reorganization, was approved by our stockholders on August 4, 2004. The Long-Term Incentive Plan provides for grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, performance awards, deferred stock units and dividend equivalent rights. Our directors, officers and employees, as well as other individuals performing services for, or to whom an offer of employment has been extended by us, are eligible to receive grants under the Long-Term Incentive Plan. A total of 4,000,000 shares of our common stock are available for issuance under the Long-Term Incentive Plan. The purpose of the Long-Term Incentive Plan is to promote our long-term growth and profitability by providing these individuals with incentives to maximize stockholder value and otherwise contribute to our success and to enable us to attract, retain and reward the best available persons for positions of responsibility. The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors administers the Long-Term Incentive Plan. There were 1,355,193 and 2,053,294 shares of common stock remaining available for grants of stock options under our Long-Term Incentive Plan as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

	•	Next, we discuss our critical accounting policies. These are the accounting policies that are most important to both the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgment.

	Increase value from our existing assets. We have a highly diversified portfolio of power generation assets in terms of region, fuel type and dispatch levels. We will continue to focus on extracting value from our portfolio by improving plant performance, reducing costs and harnessing our advantages of scale in the procurement of fuels: a strategy that we have branded “FORNRG,” or Focus on ROIC@NRG.
	Pursue intrinsic growth opportunities at existing sites in our core regions. We are favorably positioned to pursue growth opportunities through expansion of our existing generating capacity. We intend to invest in our existing assets through plant improvements, repowering and brownfield development to meet anticipated regional requirements for new capacity. We expect that these efforts will provide more efficient energy, lower our delivered cost, expand our electricity production capability and improve our ability to dispatch economically across all sections of the merit order, including baseload, intermediate and peaking generation.
	Maintain financial strength and flexibility. We remain focused on increasing cash flow and maintaining liquidity and balance sheet strength in order to ensure continued access to capital for growth; enhancing risk-adjusted returns; and providing flexibility in executing our business strategy. We will continue our focus on maintaining operational and financial controls designed to ensure that our financial position remains strong.
	Reduce the volatility of our cash flows through asset-based commodity hedging activities. We will continue to execute asset-based risk management, hedging, marketing and trading strategies within well-defined risk and liquidity guidelines in order to manage the value of our physical and contractual assets. Our marketing and hedging philosophy is centered on generating stable returns from our portfolio of power generation assets while preserving the ability to capitalize on strong spot market conditions and to capture the extrinsic value of our portfolio. We believe that we can successfully execute this strategy by taking advantage of our expertise in marketing power and ancillary services, our knowledge of markets, our flexible financial structure and our diverse portfolio of power generation assets.
	Participate in continued industry consolidation. We will continue to pursue selective acquisitions, joint ventures and divestitures to enhance our asset mix and competitive position in our core regions to meet the fuel and dispatch requirements in these regions. We intend to concentrate on acquisition and joint venture opportunities that present attractive risk-adjusted returns. We will also opportunistically pursue other strategic transactions, including mergers, acquisitions or divestitures during the consolidation of the power generation industry in the United States.

	•	Hurricanes Katrina and Rita exacerbated an already tight national natural gas production and delivery system during record summer demand. This led to significant price spikes and volatility across all fuel sources, which in turn spurred regulatory concerns over excessive burdens on retail consumers and

		renewed interest by incumbent utilities in securing long-term power supplies that are not tied to the price of natural gas.
	•	The Energy Policy Act of 2005, or EPAct, the most comprehensive energy legislation in more than a decade, was enacted in August 2005. EPAct reinforces FERC oversight and monitoring responsibilities and encourages the development of regulatory framework that provide the appropriate market signals for increased infrastructure investment including generation.
	•	While financial and strategic buyers continue to participate in energy sector asset sales and acquisitions, there has been renewed interest within the power sector for scope and scale and renewed merger and acquisitions activities by existing owners of power generation. This year has also seen regulated utilities seeking to participate in the competitive markets through outright combinations with deregulated entities.
	•	The EPA released its CAIR and CAMR guidelines in March. While there continues to be uncertainty as to the implementation standards by certain states, these environmental requirements coupled with potential improved scrubber technologies provide additional clarity with respect to longer term compliance strategies that will drive higher capital expenditure programs towards the end of the decade for many energy providers.
	•	There has been contentious but continued progress towards capacity markets evolution in order to meet increasing demand and encourage new investment in transmission and generation in load pockets around the country, including New England and California.

	•	extreme peak demands,

	For year ended December 31, 2005 compared to the year ended December 31, 2004

	Significant Events Reflected in our Results of Operations During 2005

	•	Extreme weather conditions, including Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, contributed to the increase in the sale price of power. This increase in power prices drove the net mark-to-market losses of $119 million primarily associated with forward financial electric sales in support of our Northeast assets.
	•	As compared to the year ended December 31, 2004, on-peak electricity prices increased between 43% to 53% in the various markets we operate, whereas our total domestic coal costs, which are largely contracted, increased only 17% increasing our dark spreads. Gas and oil prices increased 50% and 49%, respectively, resulting in higher spark spreads, but compressed oil margins as compared to the same period last year(1)
	•	Total generation increased for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to 2004 by 5%.
	•	We began selling excess emission allowances, and have recognized a net gain of $31 million during 2005.
	•	Forced outages at our Huntley, Dunkirk, Indian River and Big Cajun II plants during 2005 negatively impacted our generation by 2.4 million MWh.
	•	We repurchased $645 million in aggregate principal amount of our Second Priority Notes, resulting in $45 million of refinancing charges.
	•	We sold a number of non-core assets including, Enfield, our Northbrook assets and our remaining Kendall interest for a total of $106 million in proceeds and a net gain of approximately $32 million.
	•	We announced the signing of a sale agreement for Rocky Road resulting in an impairment charge of $20 million.
	•	We wrote-down our interest in the Saguaro Power Company by $27 million.

	Consolidated Discussion:

	Revenues from Majority-Owned Operations

	Net Cash Provided (Used) By Operating Activities

	•	Net income decreased by $102 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to the year ended December 31, 2004.
	•	Due to the sharp increase in the sale price per MWh, our derivative contract terms required collateral deposits of $405 million during 2005, compared to $7 million during 2004, a difference of $398 million. As of December 31, 2005 we had collateral deposits of $438 million and we expect $405 of this amount to be refunded during 2006 as the underlying contracts expire.
	•	A decrease of $60 million in distributions from our equity investments during 2005 compared to 2004. The majority of this decrease is from our WCP investment. Since the expiration of the CDWR contract on December 31, 2004, WCP’s profit has been significantly reduced and has subsequently distributed $59 million less dividends during 2005 compared to 2004.
	•	Receipt of $100 million in 2004 related to the settlement with Xcel Energy.

	Net Cash Provided (Used) By Investing Activities

	•	During 2004, we sold interests in non-core assets for proceeds totaling $304 million. As most of the non-core assets were sold during 2004 and management began focusing on different areas of operation, during 2005 proceeds from the sale of non-core assets fell by $198 million.
	•	Our capital expenditures were $13 million less during 2005 compared to 2004 due to lower PRB conversion expenditures.
	•	During 2005, proceeds from payments on our notes receivable increased by $82 million, primarily due to the payment from TermoRio of approximately $71 million as the dispute related to this note was settled.

113

---

Table of Contents

	•	In comparison to an increase of $27 million during 2004, restricted cash balances decreased by $46 million, a difference of $72 million. This amount is explained by the release of approximately $38 million of restricted cash at our Flinders facility as a result of our refinancing of Flinders’ debt, as well as the release of accounts from restrictions during post bankruptcy operations.

	Net Cash Provided (Used) By Financing Activities

	•	The redemption and repurchase of $645 million of our Second Priority Secured Notes. In order to redeem our Second Priority Notes, we issued $420 million of the 4% Preferred Stock in December 2004, and subsequently, $250 million of the 3.625% Preferred Stock in August of 2005. The timing difference between the receipt of cash from our 4% Preferred Stock in December 2004 and the redemption of debt in 2005 is the primary reason for the increase in cash used for financing activities in 2005 in comparison to 2004.
	•	Our accelerated share repurchase payment of $250 million.
	•	Payment of $46 million for financing costs to refinance our Flinders’ debt.
	•	Payment of $20 million of dividends to holders of our preferred stock.

Note 29 —	Guarantees and Other Contingent Liabilities

	•	Standby letters of credit and surety bonds — At December 31, 2005, we and our consolidated subsidiaries were contingently obligated for a total of approximately $321 million under standby letters of credit. Most of these letters of credit are issued in support of our obligations to perform under commodity agreements, financing or other arrangements. These letters of credit expire within one year of issuance, and it is typical for us to renew many of them on similar terms.

As of December 31, 2005, standby letters of credit in amounts totaling approximately $312 million were issued under our $350.0 million corporate funded letter of credit facility, which is reflected in our financial statements. Of this amount, approximately $3 million was issued to support performance obligations of an unconsolidated affiliate of ours. Our Flinders subsidiary had issued approximately

228

Table of Contents

	AUD 12 million (approximately US $9 million) in unfunded letters of credit under an AUD 20 million (approximately US $15 million) working capital and letter of credit facility, described in Note 17 — Debt and Capital Leases.
	At December 31, 2005, we were also contingently obligated for approximately $4 million under surety bonds to support our prepayment, completion, license, tax or performance bonding requirements. Most of the bonds are supported by a letter of credit under our funded letter of credit facility, which is reflected in our financial statements. All of the bonds expire within one year; however, we expect to renew many of these bonds on a rolling twelve-month basis.

	•	Asset purchases and divestitures — In the normal course of business, we may be asked to provide certain assurances to the counter-parties of our asset sale and purchase agreements. Such assurances may take the form of a guarantee issued by us on behalf of a directly or indirectly held majority-owned subsidiary who included certain indemnifications to a third party (usually the buyer) as described below. Due to the inter-company nature of such arrangements (NRG Energy is essentially guaranteeing its own performance) and the nature of the guarantee being provided (usually the typical representations and warranties that are provided in any asset sales agreement), it is not our policy to recognize the value of such an obligation in our consolidated financial statements. Most of these guarantees provide an explicit cap on our maximum liability, as well as an expiration period, exclusive of breach of representations and warranties.

	On April 1, 2005, in conjunction with the sale of our interest in the Enfield Energy Center Ltd, a minority-owned, indirectly held affiliate of ours, we issued a guarantee of the obligations of a subsidiary of ours under the sale and purchase agreement, to the buyers of our interest. The maximum liability for this guarantee was approximately $56 million as of December 31, 2005.
	At December 31, 2005, our maximum known exposure under asset purchase or sales guarantees was approximately $123 million. On January 1, 2006, we executed a guarantee to a prospective buyer of one of our unconsolidated affiliates. This guarantees the payment of claims related to tax obligations, late payments, and indemnifications, and the maximum liability we estimate under this guarantee is approximately $5 million. This guarantee expires on October 1, 2016. Upon the defeasance of $0.4 million of our Second Priority Notes on February 2, 2006, we retained guarantee obligations related to this indebtedness. For further information, see Note 17 — Debt and Capital Leases.

	•	Commercial sales arrangements — In connection with the purchase and sale of fuel, emission allowances and power generation products to and from third parties with respect to the operation of some of our generation facilities in the U.S., we may be required to guarantee a portion of the obligations of certain of our subsidiaries. These obligations may include liquidated damages payments or other unscheduled payments. As of December 31, 2005, we estimate the maximum liability for this category of guarantee was approximately $91 million. We have subsequently issued additional guarantees or increased existing guarantees of the performance of NRG PMI, with increasing the maximum liability by approximately $19 million. These additional guarantees terminate between December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2008.
	•	Other types of guarantees — We have issued guarantees of obligations our subsidiaries may incur in provision of environmental site remediation, payment of debt obligations, rail car leases and performance under operating and maintenance agreements. Maximum quantifiable liability under the environmental guarantees is approximately $64 million, most of which is a guarantee for plant removal and site remediation obligations at our Flinders facilities. The maximum quantifiable exposure under the operational guarantees is $25 million, primarily related to our role as operator at the Gladstone power plant. In addition, we have a maximum liability exposure of approximately $1 million under a tax indemnity guarantee to a third party and third-party debt guarantee exposure of approximately $1 million.

Table of Contents

On February 18, 2005 we executed a guarantee to the benefit of our counter-party under a railcar lease. We guarantee the performance and payment obligations of NRG PMI under the railcar lease. Payment obligations include future rental and termination payments, which are estimated to total approximately $48 million over the next five years of the lease, and approximately $46 million over the remainder of the lease, should we elect not to exercise our termination rights. If we do elect to terminate the lease, we will be required to pay $8 million in termination fees, but we will have no obligation to make future lease payments. However, our obligations under this guarantee include additional requirements that would be difficult to quantify until such time as a claim were made. As a result, our maximum potential obligation under this guarantee is of indeterminate exposure, and therefore is not included in the table of maximum exposure maturities in this note.

	•	Asset purchases and divestitures — The purchase and sale agreements which govern our asset or share investments and divestitures customarily contain indemnifications of the transaction to third parties. The contracts indemnify the parties for liabilities incurred as a result of a breach of a representation or warranty by the indemnifying party, or as a result of a change in tax laws. These obligations generally have a discrete term and are intended to protect the parties against risks that are difficult to predict or quantify at the time of the transaction. In several cases, the contract limits the liability of the indemnifier. For those indemnities in which liability is capped, the exposure ranges from $250 thousand up to $50 million. We have no reason to believe that we currently have any material liability relating to such routine indemnification obligations.
	•	Other indemnities — Other indemnifications we have provided cover operational, tax, litigation and breaches of representations, warranties and covenants. We have also indemnified, on a routine basis in the ordinary course of business, consultants or other vendors who have provided services to us. Our maximum potential exposure under these indemnifications can range from a specified dollar amount to an unlimited amount, depending on the nature of the transaction. Total maximum potential exposure under these indemnifications is not estimable due to uncertainty as to whether claims will be made or how they will be resolved. We do not have any reason to believe that we will be required to make any material payments under these indemnity provisions.
