Item 5. Other Events and Regulation FD Disclosure.
On January 6, 2004 NRG Energy Inc. (NRG) provided supplemental information relating to distributions to its Class 5 (NRG Unsecured Claims) creditors, in particularly with respect to the results of the reallocation procedure as described in Article V of NRG’s Plan of Reorganization and the anticipated timing of future distributions.
Item 7. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
The following exhibits are filed with this report on Form 8-K:
| Exhibit No. | Description | ||||||
| 99.1 | Press Release dated January 6, 2004. |
Certain statements included in this Form 8-K are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the making of additional distributions and the receipt of additional proceeds from Xcel Energy. Although NRG believes that its expectations are reasonable, it can give no assurance that these expectations will prove to have been correct. Factors that could cause the results to differ materially from those contemplated in the forward-looking statements above include, among others, the possibility that NRG will not receive the additional payments from Xcel Energy, the possibility that NRG will not generally have adequate liquidity to make any payments or that it will not meet the liquidity thresholds necessary to make the additional distribution in October 2004.
The foregoing review of factors that could cause NRG’s actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in the forward-looking statements included in this Form 8-K should not be construed as exhaustive. For more information regarding risks and uncertainties that may affect NRG’s future results, review NRG’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
