Stay, (d) Scheduling a Final Hearing, and (e) Granting Related Relief (the “Urgent Motion”); and 

the Court having indicated it would consider granting the Urgent Motion upon modification of the 

relief requested therein upon the terms as specified by the Court; and upon the Oversight Board’s 

and AAFAF’s Urgent Application and Notice of Revised Proposed $300 Million Loan from

facility as an unsecured superpriority administrative expense claim (the “Urgent Joint 

Application”);2and the Court having found it has subject matter jurisdiction over this matter 

pursuant to section 306(a) of PROMESA; and it appearing that venue in this district is proper 

pursuant to section 307(a) of PROMESA; and upon objections having been filed to the Urgent 

Motion; and the Court having found the relief requested in the Urgent MotionJoint Application is 

in the best interests of the Debtor, its creditors, and other parties in interest; and the Court having

statements of counsel in support of the Urgent Motion at a hearing held before the Court (the 

“Hearing”); and the court having considered the Urgent Joint Application and having determined 

that it is in accordance with the Court’s decision setting forth the conditions for the Court’s 

approval of a $300 million credit facility as an unsecured superpriority administrative expense 

claim; and the Court having determined that the legal and factual bases set forth in the Urgent 

Motion, as modified by the Urgent Joint Application, and at the Hearing establish just cause for the 

relief granted herein; and any objections to the relief set forth herein having been withdrawn or

overruled on the merits; and upon the record herein, after due deliberation thereon, the Court 

having found that good and sufficient cause exists for the granting of the relief as set forth herein,

IT IS HEREBY FOUND AND DETERMINED THAT:3

A. Purpose and Necessity of Financing. The Debtor requires the financing under the 

Facilityfacility described in the Urgent MotionJoint Application, subject to and consistent with the 

terms set forth in the Postpetition Credit Agreement substantially in the form attached heretoto the 

Urgent Joint Application as Exhibit 1A (as amended or modified, the “Credit Agreement”) and 

the other Credit Documents, to finance operating expenses that (i) constitute Eligible Uses and (ii) 

are included in the initial 13-week cash flow budget attached hereto as Exhibit 21 and any 

subsequent 13-week cash flow budget submitted by the Debtor to the Lender as provided in the 

Credit Agreement and approved by the Lender and the Oversight Board (collectively, the 

“Budget”); provided, that, absent further order of the Court, the Commitment shall be limited to 

$300 million (the “Initial Facility”). The financing under the Facility is necessary to the continued 

operation of the Debtor. The Debtor is unable to obtain adequate unsecured credit allowable as an 

administrative expense under section 503 of the Bankruptcy Code, or other sufficient secured 

financing under sections 364(c) or (d) of the Bankruptcy Code, on equal or more favorable terms 

than those set forth in the Credit Documents, based on the totality of the circumstances. A loan 

facility in the amount provided byof the Credit DocumentsInitial Facility, at a low rate of interest, 

is not available to the Debtor without granting the Lender a superpriority administrative claim and 

a priming lien pursuant to sectionssection 364(c)(1) and 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code as 

provided in this Order and the Credit Documents. After considering all alternatives, the Debtor

has exercised its permissible judgment as a governmental instrumentality in determining the Initial 

 

3

Findings of fact shall be construed as conclusions of law, and conclusions of law shall be construed as findings of 

fact, as applicable, pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 7052.

Facility represents the best financing available to it at this time and is in the best interests of its 

stakeholders.

B. Preservation of the Value of Collateral. Absent access to the Facility in accordance 

with this Order, the value of the Collateral could be severely harmed. Access to the Facility, 

subject to this Order, will preserve, and may ultimately enhance, the value of the Collateral, 

especially due to the Facility’s proceeds being limited to payment of Current Expenses permitted 

by the security agreement to be paid from the pledged revenues. Accordingly, any secured 

claimholders of the Debtor are adequately protected.

B. C. Good Cause Shown. Good and sufficient cause has been shown for entry of this 

Order. The ability of the Debtor to obtain sufficient working capital and liquidity under the Credit 

Documents is vital to the Debtor, its creditors, and its customers. The liquidity to be provided 

under the Credit Documents will enable the Debtor to continue to operate in the ordinary course 

and preserve the value of the Debtor’s assets. Among other things, entry of this Order is necessary 

to maximize the value of the Debtor’s assets. Accordingly, this Order is in the best interests of the 

Debtor and its creditors.

D. Good Faith. The terms of the Credit Documents are more favorable to the Debtor

than those available from alternative sources. Any obligations under the Facility and other 

financial accommodations made to the Debtor by the Lender pursuant to the Credit Documents 

and this Order shall be deemed to have been extended by the Lender in good faith, as that term is 

used in section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, and in express reliance upon the protections 

offered by section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code, and the Lender shall be entitled to the full 

protections of section 364(e) of the Bankruptcy Code if this Order or any other provision hereof is 

vacated, reversed, or modified, on appeal or otherwise.

C. E. Relief Essential; Good Cause. The authorization granted herein to enter into the 

Credit Documents and to obtain funds under the Initial Facility is necessary, essential, and 

appropriate for continued operations, and for the management, maintenance and preservation of 

the Debtor’s assets and property as it will, among other things, provide the Debtor with the 

necessary liquidity to continue to operate and preserve and maximize the value of its assets. Good 

cause has been shown for the relief requested in the Urgent MotionJoint Application and as 

granted in this Order. Based upon the foregoing findings, acknowledgements, and conclusions, 

and upon the record made before this Court at the Hearing, and good and sufficient cause 

appearing therefor;

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED THAT:

1. Disposition. The Urgent MotionJoint Application is GRANTED on the terms set 

forth in this Order. Any objection to the relief sought in the Urgent Motion that has not previously 

been withdrawn or resolved is hereby overruled on its merits.

AUTHORIZATION FOR FINANCING

2. Authorization for Financing. The Debtor is hereby authorized to execute, perform 

and incur the obligations arising under the Initial Facility, subject to the terms of this Order and the 

Credit Documents, in the aggregate principal amount of up to $1.0 billion (subject to further 

approval by necessary governmental action of the Lender for any amounts in excess of $550 

million)300 million. From and after entry of this Order, available financing and advances shall be 

made in accordance with the Credit Documents and the Budget, to the extent provided in the 

Credit Agreement, for the purpose of funding “Eligible Uses,” as defined in the Motion.

3. Authority to Perform Under Necessary Documents. The Debtor is authorized and 

directed to (i) perform all its obligations under the Credit Documents, and such other agreements 

Case:17-03283-LTS Doc#:2523-5 Filed:02/16/18 Entered:02/16/18 04:21:17 Desc:

Exhibit D - Redline of Proposed Order Page 5 of 17
6

as may be required by the Credit Documents to give effect to the terms of the financing provided 

for therein and in this Order, and (ii) perform all acts required under the Credit Documents and this 

Order.

4. Valid and Binding Obligations. All obligations under the Credit Documents shall 

constitute valid and binding obligations of the Debtor in accordance with the terms of the Credit 

Documents and the terms of this Order, and no obligation, payment, or transfer, or grant of a lien or 

security interest under the Credit Documents or this Order shall be stayed, restrained, voidable, or 

recoverable under PROMESA, the Bankruptcy Code, or under any applicable law or subject to any 

avoidance, reduction, setoff, offset, recharacterization, subordination (whether equitable, 

contractual, or otherwise), counterclaims, cross-claims, defenses, or any other challenges under 

PROMESA, the Bankruptcy Code, or any applicable law or regulation by any person or entity. 

For the avoidance of doubt, the Court’s approval of the Initial Facility will not in any way

prejudice or affect any rights or remedies that creditors of the Lender may assert in connection 

with the Lender’s decision to enter into the Initial Facility or the implementation thereof; provided, 

that the Lender reserves all rights and defenses in connection therewith.

5. Termination Date. Notwithstanding anything in this Order to the contrary, the 

Initial Facility shall expire, and the loans made pursuant to this Order and the Credit Documents 

will mature, and together with any other obligations accruing under the Credit Documents, will 

become due and payable (unless such obligations become due and payable earlier pursuant to the 

terms of the Credit Documents and this Order by way of acceleration or otherwise), on the earliest 

of (in each case, the “Termination Date”): (i) the date on which all the Loans and other obligations 

thereunder have been indefeasibly repaid in full in cash (and the Commitment has been 

terminated); (ii) the effective date of a confirmed plan of adjustment in the Title III Case (unless an 

Case:17-03283-LTS Doc#:2523-5 Filed:02/16/18 Entered:02/16/18 04:21:17 Desc:

Exhibit D - Redline of Proposed Order Page 6 of 17
7

alternative treatment is agreed to by the Lender); and (iii) the date of termination of the 

Commitment and/or acceleration of any outstanding extensions of credit under the Initial Facility 

following the occurrence and during the continuance of an “Event of Default” (as defined in the 

Credit Agreement).

6. Amendments, Consents, Waivers, and Modifications. 

(a) Subject to the approval of the Oversight Board, PREPAthe Debtor may enter into 

any amendments, consents, waivers, or modifications to the Credit Documents, in accordance 

with the terms thereof, without the need for further notice and hearing or any order of this Court; 

provided, however, that to the extent any material amendment, material consent, material waiver 

or material modification to the Credit Agreement is approved by the Oversight Board, such 

material amendment, material consent, material waiver or material modification shall not 

become effective without further Court order, which may be submitted on presentment with 

notice to parties in interest in accordance with the case management procedures then in effect in 

the Debtor’s Title III case.

(b) In the event a Step Increasethe Initial Facility is funded through a 

Commonwealth Financing that results in a material change to the economic terms of the Initial

Facility, such material economic terms shall not become effective without further Court order, 

which may be submitted on presentment with notice to parties in interest in accordance with the 

case management procedures (a “Material Step Increase Authorization”). For the avoidance of

doubt, the only issue subject to an objection and a hearing on a Material Step Increase 

Authorization is whether the Debtor is able to obtain credit on better terms.

PRIORITY PRIMING LIEN, AND CURRENT EXPENSE CLASSIFICATION

7. The Lender’s Superpriority Claim. The Lender is hereby granted an allowed 

superpriority administrative expense claim (the “Superpriority Claim”) pursuant to section 

364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code in the Debtor’s Title III Case for all obligations arising under the

Initial Facility, having priority over any and all other claims against the Debtor, now existing or 

hereafter arising, of any kind whatsoever, including, without limitation, all administrative 

expenses of the kinds specified in or arising or ordered, whether or not such expenses or claims 

may become secured by a judgment lien or other non-consensual lien, levy or attachment, which 

allowed Superpriority Claim shall be considered administrative expenses allowed under sections 

503(b) and 507(a)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, and which Superpriority Claim shall be payable 

from and have recourse to all pre- and postpetition property of the Debtor and all proceeds thereof. 

The Superpriority Claim shall be subject and subordinate in priority of payment only to the Carve 

Out. Except as otherwise provided in this Order, the Superpriority Claim shall be senior in all 

respects to any superpriority claims granted in this Title III Case. 

8. Priming Liens and Priority.

(a) Subject and subordinate to the Carve Out, to secure the obligations arising 

under the Facility, and as more fully set forth in the Credit Documents, the Lender is hereby 

granted: pursuant to section 364(d)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, a valid, binding, continuing, 

enforceable, fully-perfected, non-avoidable first priority senior priming lien on, and security 

interest in, all Revenues of the Debtor. The liens and security interests identified in the preceding 

clauses are referred to herein as the “Liens” and the collateral to which such Liens attach is referred 

to herein as the “Collateral.”

Exhibit D - Redline of Proposed Order Page 8 of 17

(b) The Liens shall be effective immediately upon the entry of this Order and, 

other than with respect to the Carve Out, shall not at any time be made subject or subordinated to, 

or made pari passu with, any other lien, security interest or claim. 

8. 9. Survival of Liens and Superpriority Claim. Except as otherwise provided herein, 

the Liens, the Superpriority Claim, and other rights and remedies granted under this Order to the 

Lender shall continue in this Title III Case, and such liens and security interests shall maintain 

their priority as provided in this Order until all the obligations arising under the Initial Facility 

have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash or otherwise satisfied, and any commitment of the 

Lender has been terminated in accordance with the Credit Documents. 

9. 10. Current Expense Classification. “Eligible Uses” of the proceeds of the Loans 

pursuant to this Order and the Credit Documents are limited to certain categories of expenses, all 

of which constitute “Current Expenses” under the Trust Agreement. As such, the Debtor’s 

repayment obligations to the Lender for amounts borrowed under the Initial Facility shall be 

deemed to be “Current Expenses” under the Trust Agreement.

ADEQUATE PROTECTION

11. Adequate Protection. All secured claimholders of the Debtor, including holders of 

the Debtor’s Power Revenue Bonds,4are adequately protected for the use of the Collateral, the 

granting of the Liens, the imposition of the automatic stay under sections 362 and 922 of the 

Bankruptcy Code, and the subordination (if any) of any liens, security interests, or rights such 

secured claimholders may have to receive payment from the proceeds of any Collateral.

CARVE OUT; RESTRICTIONS ON USE OF FUNDS

 

4

This Order shall not constitute a finding with respect to the value, validity, priority, extent, or enforceability of any 

asserted lien on or security interest in any property of the Debtor.

10

10. 12. Carve Out. The Liens, the Superpriority Claim, and the obligations arising 

under any secured prepetition financing shall be subject and subordinate to the Carve Out. “Carve 

Out” means the sum of: (i) to the extent allowed at any time, whether by interim order, procedural 

order, or otherwise all unpaid fees, costs, and expenses (the “Professional Fees”) incurred by 

persons or firms retained by or on behalf of the Debtor (including professionals retained by

AAFAF for which the Debtor is obligated to reimburse AAFAF) (the “Debtor Professionals”), the 

Oversight Board (the “Oversight Board’s Professionals”) and the Official Committee of 

Unsecured Creditors (the “Creditors’ Committee,” together with the Oversight Board’s 

Professionals and the Debtor Professionals, the “Professional Persons”); and (ii) any state 

matching requirements of Federal grants and loans.

11. 13. Prohibition on Granting of Liens or Additional Liens and InterestsSuperpriority 

Claims. No liens, claims, interests or priority status, other than the Carve Out, having a lien or 

administrative priority superior to, pari passu with, that of the Liens or the Superpriority Claim, 

shall be granted while any portion of the obligations arising under the Initial Facility remains 

outstanding, or any commitments of the Lender under the Credit Documents remains in effect, 

without the prior written consent of the Lender.

MODIFICATION OF AUTOMATIC STAY

14. Stay Modification. 

(a) The automatic stay provisions of sections 362 and 922 of the Bankruptcy

Code are, to the extent applicable, vacated and modified without further application or motion to, 

or order from, the Court, to the extent necessary so as to permit the following, and neither section 

105 of the Bankruptcy Code nor any other provision of PROMESA, the Bankruptcy Code, or 

applicable law shall be utilized to prohibit the exercise, enjoyment and enforcement of any of such 

rights, benefits, privileges, or remedies regardless of any change in circumstances (whether or not

default by the Debtor of any of its obligations under this Order has occurred (A) to require all cash, 

checks or other collections or proceeds from Collateral received by the Debtor to be deposited in 

accordance with the requirements of the Credit Documents, and to apply any amounts so deposited 

and other amounts paid to or received by the Lender under the Credit Documents in accordance 

with any requirements of the Credit Documents, (B) to file or record any financing statements, 

mortgages or other instruments or other documents to evidence the security interests in and liens 

upon the Collateral in accordance with the Credit Documents, (C) to charge and collect any 

interest, fees, costs and other expenses accruing at any time under the Credit Documents as 

provided therein, and (D) to give the Debtor any notice provided for in or contemplated by any of 

the Credit Documents or this Order.

(b) This Court shall retain exclusive jurisdiction to hear and resolve any 

disputes and enter any orders required by the provisions of this Order and relating to the 

application, re-imposition or continuance of the automatic stay of sections 362 and 922 of the 

Bankruptcy Code or other injunctive relief requested.
