Joint CEO Video Script

[shot with both CEOs seated in chairs, side-by-side]

Ed Muller:

•

Hello, everyone, and thank you for watching today. I am Ed Muller, Chairman and Chief Executive of Mirant.

Mark Jacobs:

•

And I am Mark Jacobs, President and Chief Executive of RRI Energy.

Ed Muller:

•		We both wanted you to hear directly from us about the exciting news we announced today.
•		Mirant and RRI Energy have entered into a merger agreement that will result in the combination of our two companies. The new entity will be called GenOn Energy. We will be one of the largest independent power producers in the United States with over 24,700 megawatts of capacity.

Mark Jacobs:

•

We are very excited about this transformational opportunity and couldn’t be more optimistic about our future together.

Ed Muller:

•		Let me give you a few reasons why we think this combination is compelling.
•		This is a true merger of equals that brings together two highly complementary companies.

•		Mark and I agree that we’re a good fit — both culturally and operationally. We share a common strategic vision as well as a focus on operational excellence.
•		We are of similar size and financial strength and our fleets have little overlap.
•		The new company will be a larger, stronger, and more diversified organization.
•		We expect the combination to be able to realize substantial savings.
•		We’ll have a more diversified generation fleet and increased scale, with a stronger position in key geographic markets. GenOn will be strategically well positioned with significant operations across the Mid-Atlantic, the Northeast, California, the Southeast and the Midwest.
•		We’ll also benefit from a stronger balance sheet, including a solid cash position and ample liquidity. The merged company will have the financial strength and flexibility to navigate successfully through industry cycles.
•		These resources will allow us to take advantage of new opportunities in the market as fundamentals improve.
•		I want to emphasize that this is not a change in direction, but rather a faster way to get to where we were already going, together.

Mark Jacobs:

•		Together, Ed and I are committed to ensuring that we leverage the best of both companies. We feel strongly that the core values of the two companies are closely aligned. Our goal in the integration is to harness the best from both organizations.
•		The leadership will include individuals from both Mirant and RRI Energy.
•		GenOn’s Board of Directors will have equal representation from both companies.
•		Ed will be GenOn’s chairman and CEO and I will be the president and COO and am to succeed Ed as CEO in 2013 when he plans to retire.

•		Bill Holden from Mirant will be chief financial officer and Mike Jines from RRI Energy will be general counsel.
•		Dave Freysinger from RRI Energy will manage plant operations while Robert Gaudette from Mirant will oversee commercial operations.
•		And Anne Cleary from Mirant will be responsible for asset management.
•		The remainder of the leadership and further decisions about GenOn’s structure will be among the first things we work through as we plan the integration.
•		In many ways, this process has already begun. An Integration Steering Committee will be co-chaired by Bill Holden and me.
•		We will be working hard throughout this next period to get ready for closing, which we expect to happen before the end of this year.
•		So, I’m sure you’re wondering what happens next. Until the merger is completed, it is important that we continue to operate as two independent companies. For the vast majority of you, little will change in your day-to-day work.
•		In the meantime, we will keep you updated about new developments.
•		Both Ed and I agree the most effective thing for all of you to do is proceed with business as usual and continue to give your best. All of our existing commitments, plans and goals remain in place.
•		We understand that you surely will have questions. RRI Energy and Mirant will both be holding meetings at our respective headquarters this week to talk more about the merger. You can find details of those meetings through your usual communications channels, and we look forward to speaking with you there.
•		Let me finish by saying that I look forward to the exciting opportunities ahead as we join forces to create a truly great company.
•		Ed...

[pan to both CEOs]

Ed Muller:

•

Thank you for your time today, and for your commitment over the years. It is your dedication and hard work that have brought us to the position where this transaction was possible.
