Project Financing, Notes Payable and Other
On January 29, 2019, PG&E and PG&E Corporation each filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11. Our power plants that sell energy and energy-related products to PG&E through PPAs, include Russell City Energy Center and Los Esteros Critical Energy Facility. Since the bankruptcy filing, we have received all material payments under the PPAs, either directly or through the application of collateral. As a result of PG&E’s bankruptcy, we are currently unable to make distributions from our Russell City and Los Esteros projects in accordance with the terms of the project debt agreements associated with each related project. In July 2019, we executed forbearance agreements associated with the Russell City and Los Esteros project debt agreements, under which the lenders have agreed to forbear enforcement of their rights and remedies, including the ability to accelerate the repayment of borrowings outstanding, otherwise arising because PG&E did not assume our PPAs during the first 180 days of PG&E’s bankruptcy proceeding. The forbearance agreements are effective for rolling 90-day periods, so long as we continue to meet certain conditions, including that the PPAs have not been rejected and there are no other defaults under the project debt agreements or the forbearance agreements. We may be required to reclassify $276 million of Russell City and Los Esteros long-term project debt outstanding at March 31, 2020 to a current liability in a future period. We continue to monitor the bankruptcy proceedings and are assessing our options.
