**Section 1 - Registrant's Business and Operations**

**Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement**

On November 17, 2025, Constellation Energy Generation, LLC ("Constellation") entered into (i) that certain Loan Guarantee Agreement, dated as of November 17, 2025 (the "Loan Guarantee Agreement") with the U.S. Department of Energy (the "DOE"), as guarantor, acting by and through the Secretary of Energy, (ii) that certain Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 17, 2025 (the "Note Purchase Agreement"), among Constellation, the Federal Financing Bank ("FFB") and the DOE, acting by and through the Secretary of Energy, pursuant to which FFB provided a $1.0 billion commitment to Constellation for the making of advances under the FFB Note (as defined below), and (iii) the Future Advance Promissory Note dated November 17, 2025, made by Constellation to FFB (the "Promissory Note" and, together with the Note Purchase Agreement, the "FFB Documents", and together with the Loan Guarantee Agreement, the "Loan Documents"), as described below, and which agreements have been filed herewith as Exhibits 10.1 through 10.3, respectively. The financing provided to Constellation by the FFB Documents, and guaranteed by the DOE pursuant to the Loan Guarantee Agreement (the "Guaranteed Loan"), is expected to support the restart and repowering of the Christopher M. Crane Clean Energy Center, an 835 MW nuclear generating station located in Londonderry Township, Pennsylvania (the "Plant" and the restart and repowering thereof being hereinafter referred to as the "Project"). The information contained in Item 2.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated into this Item 1.01.

**Section 2 – Financial Information** 

**Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.**

Pursuant to the loan guarantee program established under Title XVII of the Energy Policy Act of 2005, as amended from time to time (the "Title XVII Loan Guarantee Program"), Constellation and the DOE entered into the Loan Guarantee Agreement on November 17, 2025, pursuant to which the DOE agreed to guarantee the obligations of Constellation under the FFB Documents (the "DOE Guarantee"). The FFB Documents provide for a multi-advance term loan facility (the "Facility"), under which Constellation may make term loan borrowings (collectively, the "Guaranteed Loan") through FFB, in a maximum principal amount not to exceed $1.0 billion, until the earliest of (a) the date the Guaranteed Loan reaches a balance equal to $1.0 billion and (b) September 15, 2030.

Aggregate borrowings under the Facility may not exceed at any time the lesser of (i) eighty percent (80%) of the aggregate amount of Eligible Project Costs incurred on or prior to the date of such requested advance, and (ii) $1.0 billion.

Proceeds of the Guaranteed Loan are required to be used to reimburse Constellation for a portion of certain costs relating to restoration, maintenance, repair, inspection, qualification and licensing of the Plant that are eligible for financing under the Title XVII Loan Guarantee Program (collectively, the "Eligible Project Costs").

The Guaranteed Loan is full recourse to Constellation. Under the Loan Guarantee Agreement, Constellation is obligated to reimburse the DOE in the event that the DOE is required to make any payments to FFB under the DOE Guarantee.

*Advances*. Advances may be requested under the Facility on a quarterly basis through the earliest of (a) the date the Guaranteed Loan reaches an aggregate balance of $1 billion and (b) September 15, 2030. Constellation did not make, or request to make, an initial borrowing in connection with the initial closing of the Loan Guarantee Agreement. In order to utilize the Facility, Constellation must make the initial borrowing no later than May 17, 2027.

Advances are subject to satisfaction of customary conditions, such as delivery of an advance request, as well as other conditions, such as certification of compliance with the requirements of the Title XVII Loan Guarantee Program, including the accuracy of Project-related representations and warranties, delivery of updated Project-related information, evidence of compliance with the prevailing wage requirements of the Davis-Bacon Act of 1931, as amended (the "Davis-Bacon Act") and compliance with the Cargo Preference Act of 1954.

*Interest Payments; Bullet Maturity; Interest Rate*. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 17 and November 17 of each year. Principal will be payable in full on the final maturity date of November 17, 2055.

The interest rate for each advance will be established by FFB at the time that the respective advance is made and, shall be 0.375% *per annum* over the current average yield on outstanding marketable obligations of the United States of comparable maturity, as determined by the Secretary of the Treasury.

------

*Security.* In connection with the initial closing of the Loan Guarantee Agreement, the obligations of Constellation under the Loan Documents are unsecured. However, the Loan Documents require that, in the event any lien (other than certain permitted liens) is granted by Constellation to secure any of its other long-term indebtedness, Constellation must take such actions as are necessary to ensure that the Guaranteed Loan is equally and ratably secured on a *pari passu* basis with such other lien subject to customary intercreditor arrangements with such other secured creditors.

*Representations and Warranties.* The Loan Guarantee Agreement contains representations and warranties including, among other things, representations and warranties regarding compliance with applicable law and the use of federal funds by Constellation in connection with the Project.

*Covenants*. Under the Loan Guarantee Agreement, Constellation is subject to affirmative and negative covenants. In addition, Constellation is subject to Project-related reporting requirements and other project-specific affirmative covenants, including compliance with the requirements of the Title XVII Loan Guarantee Program, construction of the Plant in accordance with the requirements of the Loan Guarantee Agreement and compliance with applicable law, including the Davis-Bacon Act and the Cargo Preference Act of 1954. In addition, Constellation is subject to certain project-specific negative covenants, including restrictions on granting liens, changing the scope of the Project in any manner that would require additional review under the National Environmental Policy Act, as amended, or causing the Project not to be an eligible project pursuant to the Title XVII Loan Guarantee Program.

*Events of Default.* Under the Loan Guarantee Agreement, Constellation is subject to events of default, including the failure to make payments when due, bankruptcy/insolvency events and breaches of representations or covenants. Additional events of default include cross-default on other indebtedness in excess of certain thresholds, legal judgments in excess of certain thresholds, and the use of federal funding in violation of applicable law.

*Mandatory and Optional Prepayments.* In the event certain mandatory prepayment events occur, FFB's commitment to make further advances under the Facility will terminate and Constellation will be required to prepay in full the Guaranteed Loan and all other guaranteed obligations in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents. Mandatory prepayment events include (i) abandonment of the Project or Plant, (ii) the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Plant and (iii) the occurrence of a change of control of Constellation.

Constellation may elect to prepay all or any portion of the Guaranteed Loan at any time; provided that, (i) with respect to a prepayment in full, Constellation must cancel the outstanding commitment of FFB to make advances and (ii) with respect to a partial prepayment, Constellation must certify (a) that it has adequate funds available to complete the Project and (b) that no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing or could reasonably be expected to occur as a result of such partial prepayment.

Under the FFB Documents, any prepayment (whether mandatory or optional) will be made with a make-whole premium.

The foregoing description of the Loan Documents, and the transactions contemplated thereby, does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Loan Documents, which are attached as Exhibits 10.1 through 10.3 and incorporated herein by reference.

The Loan Documents have been included to provide investors and security holders with information regarding the terms of such agreements. The Loan Documents are not intended to provide any other factual or financial information about Constellation. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Loan Documents were made only for purposes of such agreements and are as of specific dates; were solely for the benefit of the parties thereto; may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the parties thereto; and may be subject to standards of materiality and knowledge applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any description thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of Constellation. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the Loan Documents, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures by Constellation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1 Contact: Paul Adams Constellation Communications 667-218-7700 paul.adams@constellation.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE U.S. GOVERNMENT BACKS CONSTELLATION'S PLAN TO LAUNCH CRANE CLEAN ENERGY CENTER, ADDING 835 MWS OF NEW BASELOAD POWER TO THE GRID DOE loan will help power the digital economy, restore reliable nuclear energy to the grid and create thousands of jobs LONDONDERRY, PA (Nov. 18, 2025) — Constellation (NASDAQ: CEG) announced today that its Crane Clean Energy Center is now backed by a $1 billion U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) loan. This marks the first time the DOE Loan Programs Office has concurrently finalized a conditional loan commitment and financial close, made possible by Constellation's strong balance sheet and credit worthiness. Funded by the Energy Dominance Financing Program, this interest-bearing loan will lower Constellation's cost of financing and leverage private investment to restore reliable nuclear energy to the grid and help America win the AI race. "DOE's quick action and leadership is another huge step towards bringing hundreds of megawatts of reliable nuclear power onto the grid at this critical moment," said Joe Dominguez, president and CEO of Constellation. "Under the Trump administration, the FERC and DOE have made it possible for us to vastly expedite this restart without compromising quality or safety. It's a great example of how America first energy policies create jobs, growth and opportunities and make the grid more reliable. Utilities and grid operators are moving too slowly and need to make regulatory changes that will allow our nation to unlock its abundant energy potential. Constellation and nuclear energy are helping to lead the way and we are thankful to President Trump and Secretary Wright for putting the 'energy' back into DOE." "Pennsylvania is leading America's energy independence and the AI revolution by providing safe, clean, reliable nuclear power," said Senator Dave McCormick. "Today's loan by President Trump and the Department of Energy is great news as it helps Constellation advance the restart of the Crane Clean Energy Center, while creating 3,400

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2 new jobs and more than 800 megawatts of carbon-free electricity operating 24/7 to meet our increasing energy demands and economic growth across the region. I am thrilled to see Constellation's continued commitment to the Commonwealth, beyond those investments announced at the Pennsylvania Energy and Innovation Summit this past July." Work to restart the reactor comes at a time of unprecedented electric demand growth from electrification and the new data centers needed to support a growing digital economy and to help America win the AI race. Crane will support grid stability by delivering reliable, around-the-clock electric supply. An economic impact study commissioned by the Pennsylvania Building & Construction Trades Council found that restarting the reactor at Crane will help keep electricity prices in check; add approximately 3,400 direct and indirect jobs; generate over $16 billion for Pennsylvania's GDP and deliver more than $3 billion in state and federal tax revenue. The Crane Clean Energy Center is currently more than 80% staffed with over 500 employees, including engineers, mechanics, technicians and licensed operator trainees. Inspections of key plant components and regulatory reviews continue on schedule. Constellation has also committed more than $1 million in charitable giving over five years to support workforce development and local organizations in the region. In 2025 the company has donated $200,000 to more than a dozen local charities, nonprofit organizations and workforce development programs. Launching the Crane Clean Energy Center is part of a broader multi-billion dollar investment that Constellation is making in America's largest and growing nuclear fleet to extend the lives of existing nuclear plants and boost their output, helping ensure the fleet's always-on power continues to meet the needs of America's families and businesses for decades to come. # # #
