 RECITALS OF THE COMPANY 

Dynegy Inc. (“Dynegy”) has outstanding 4,600,000 Tangible Equity Units, each consisting of (i) a prepaid stock purchase
contract (each, a “Purchase Contract”) pursuant to which the holder thereof shall have the right from time to time to receive a number of shares of common stock of Dynegy determined pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Contract and the
Purchase Contract Agreement, dated as of June 21, 2016 (the “Purchase Contract Agreement”), among Dynegy and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Purchase Contract Agent and as Trustee, pursuant to which the Units and the
Purchase Contracts were issued and (ii) a 7.00% Senior Amortizing Note due 2019 (the “2019 Amortizing Notes”), $87,165,860 aggregate principal amount of which were issued under that certain Indenture, dated as of June 21, 2016,
by and between Dynegy and the Trustee, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 21, 2016, by and between Dynegy and the Trustee; 

WHEREAS, the Successor has filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Merger, dated as of April 9, 2018,
which provides for the merger of Dynegy with and into the Successor (the “Merger”), with the Successor continuing its corporate existence under the laws of the State of Delaware as the surviving company of the Merger; 

WHEREAS, as a result of the Merger, the Successor shall assume the obligations of Dynegy under the Units, including, for the avoidance of
doubt, with respect to the Purchase Contracts and the 2019 Amortizing Notes; 
 WHEREAS, the Certificate of Merger provides that, at the
effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of common stock of Dynegy (“Dynegy Common Stock”) that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, excluding any cancelled shares, were
converted into the right to receive 0.652 (the “Exchange Ratio”) shares of common stock of the Successor (“Successor Common Stock”) and, as a result of the Merger, all of the shares of Dynegy Common Stock converted into the right
to receive shares of Successor Common Stock ceased to be outstanding and were cancelled; 
 WHEREAS, as a result of the Merger, the
Successor shall assume the obligations of Dynegy under the Units, including, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to the Purchase Contracts and the 2019 Amortizing Notes;

 WHEREAS, Section 9.01 of the Purchase Contract Agreement provides, among other things, that
Dynegy may consolidate or merge with or into another Person or sell, assign, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of Dynegy and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole to another Person;
provided that, among other things, the successor entity (if not Dynegy) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease or other disposition has been made expressly assumes all the obligations of Dynegy under the Purchase
Contracts and the Purchase Contract Agreement pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Purchase Contract Agent; 
 WHEREAS,
Section 5.01(e) of the Purchase Contract Agreement provides that in the event of a Merger Event as a result of which Dynegy Common Stock would, among other things, be converted into common stock then, at the effective time of such Merger Event,
the right to settlement of each Unit or Separate Purchase Contract into shares of Dynegy Common Stock will be changed into a right of settlement of such Unit or Separate Purchase Contract based on the kind and amount of Reference Property that a
holder of shares of Dynegy Common Stock would have owned or been entitled to receive upon such Merger Event; 
 WHEREAS, Section 8.01
of the Purchase Contract Agreement provides that Dynegy, the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee may enter into a supplement to the Purchase Contract Agreement without the consent of any Holders to, among other things, (i) evidence the
succession by a successor corporation and to provide for the assumption by a successor of Dynegy’s obligations under the Purchase Contract Agreement and (ii) to provide for the settlement of the Purchase Contracts into the Reference
Property pursuant to Section 5.01(e) of the Purchase Contract Agreement in the case of a Merger Event; and 
 WHEREAS, the Successor
desires and has requested that the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee join in the execution of this Supplement for the purpose of evidencing such assumption by the Successor and such change in right of settlement of the Purchase Contracts into
the Reference Property. 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is
hereby acknowledged, the Purchase Contract Agent and the Successor mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders as follows: 

ARTICLE 1 
 SUCCESSOR AS ISSUER OF
COMMON STOCK UPON SETTLEMENT 
 Section 1.1. The parties hereby agree that, from and after the Effective Time, the
Successor shall issue and deliver the number of shares of Successor Common Stock which is sufficient to settle the Purchase Contracts as provided in Article 2 of this Supplement and Article IV of the Purchase Contract Agreement, in the manner set
forth herein and therein. 
 Section 1.2. The Successor shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise
every right and power of, Dynegy under the Purchase Contract Agreement, the Units and the Purchase Contracts, with the same effect as if the Successor had been named as “the Company” therein. 

  
 2 








 Section 1.3. Subject to the other provisions of this Supplement, from
and after the Effective Time, references to “the Common Stock” in the Purchase Contract Agreement shall relate to the Successor Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Contract Agreement, except to the extent that
such reference is a reference to Dynegy Common Stock as of a time preceding the Effective Time. 
 ARTICLE 2 

PURCHASE CONTRACT SETTLEMENT 

Section 2.1. The Merger constitutes a Merger Event set forth in Section 5.01(e) of the Purchase Contract
Agreement as a result of which from and after the Effective Time: 
  

	 	(i)	the adjusted Minimum Settlement Rate shall be 3.2731 shares of Successor Common Stock (calculated by multiplying the Minimum Settlement Rate that is in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time of 5.0201 shares of
Dynegy Common Stock by the Exchange Ratio); and 

  

	 	(ii)	the adjusted Maximum Settlement Rate shall be 4.0421 shares of Successor Common Stock (calculated by multiplying the Maximum Settlement Rate that is in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time of 6.1996 shares of
Dynegy Common Stock by the Exchange Ratio). 

 As a result of the foregoing adjustments, the Reference Price per share shall
be adjusted to $24.7393 from $16.13 (calculated by dividing the Reference Price per share by the Exchange Ratio) and the Threshold Appreciation Prices to $30.5521 from $19.92 (calculated by dividing the Threshold Appreciation Price by the Exchange
Ratio), as provided in the Purchase Contract Agreement. 

  
 3 








 In addition, the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rates and Stock Prices set forth in the
table included in Section 5.02(e) of the Purchase Contract Agreement shall also be adjusted as a result of the Merger as follows (calculated by (i) multiplying each Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rate by the Exchange Ratio and
(ii) dividing each Stock Price by the Exchange Ratio):
