During 2021, TVA made a $28 million court directed payment related to the sale of Bellefonte. In 2019, the purchaser, Nuclear Development, LLC ("Nuclear Development"), failed to fulfill the requirements of the sales contract with respect to obtaining NRC approval of the transfer of required nuclear licenses and payment of the remainder of the selling price before the November 30, 2018 closing date. In August 2021, the court found that, under the contract's termination provision, Nuclear Development was entitled to have TVA return Nuclear Development's down payment and its payment of compensated costs, along with prejudgment interest, which was fully paid in 2021. See Note 23 — Commitments and Contingencies — Legal Proceedings — Case Involving Bellefonte Nuclear Plant for a discussion of the lawsuit filed by Nuclear Development.
