Section 2 – Financial Information
Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
On June 1, 2005, TECO Energy, Inc. (the “company”) completed the previously announced sale and transfer of ownership (and the debt) of its indirect subsidiaries, Union Power Partners, L.P., Panda Gila River, L.P., Trans-Union Interstate Pipeline, L.P., and UPP Finance Co., LLC, owners of the Union and Gila River power stations in Arkansas and Arizona, respectively (collectively the “Projects”) to an entity owned by the Projects’ lenders in the manner set forth in the Projects’ confirmed Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”)(see excerpt of the Plan, as confirmed, attached in relevant part as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report). As previously announced, in connection with the transfer and the related release of liability, the company and its affiliates paid an aggregate of $31.8 million, consisting of $30 million to the Project’s lenders as consideration for the Master Release (see Master Release Agreement and Amendment to Undertakings dated as of January 24, 2005 attached as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report) and $1.8 million as reimbursement of legal fees for two non-consenting lenders in the recently concluded Chapter 11 proceeding. The Projects reimbursed the company and its affiliates $0.4 million associated with transition services provided by the company and its affiliates. Additionally, as part of the transaction the company entered into a Representation and Indemnification Agreement (see Exhibit 10.3 to this Current Report) in which the company agreed to indemnify the new owners of the Projects for breaches of standard representations and warranties, certain potential taxes related to the transfer of the Gila River project and liabilities related to lawsuits specifically related to disclosures about the Projects. These representations and warranties are the same as those included in the applicable agreement negotiated by the parties when the transfer was to be consensual.
The Representation and Indemnification Agreement (the “Agreement”) is included as an exhibit to provide information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide factual information about the parties. The representations and warranties contained in the Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed by the contracting parties, including being qualified by disclosures between the parties. These representations and warranties may have been made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Accordingly, they should not be relied upon by investors as statements of factual information.
Section 9 – Financial Statements and Exhibits
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits
(b) Pro forma financial information
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet reflects the sale and transfer of ownership of Union Power Partners, L.P., (including its subsidiary UPP Finance Co., LLC), Panda Gila River, L.P., and Trans-Union Interstate Pipeline, L.P. as if it had occurred on Mar. 31, 2005. On a pro forma basis, these transactions did not result in pro forma adjustments to previously reported results from continuing operations, as the Projects were reflected as discontinued operations. Therefore, pro forma condensed consolidated statements of income are not presented, as this transaction would not have had any impact on income from continuing operations. The unaudited condensed pro forma balance sheet does not purport to represent TECO Energy, Inc.’s consolidated results as if the disposition had in fact occurred on this date, nor does it purport to indicate the future consolidated financial position or future consolidated results of operations of the company.
