This Stockholders Agreement (this Agreement) is made as of October 3, 2016 (the Effective Time), between TCEH Corp., a Delaware corporation (the Company), and the entities signing under the heading Stockholder on the signature pages hereto (collectively, the Stockholder). Unless otherwise specified herein, all of the capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 4 hereof.
WHEREAS, the Company has issued shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the Common Stock) pursuant to, and upon the terms set forth in, the plan of reorganization of Energy Future Holdings Corp., a Texas Corporation, and certain entities in which it holds an equity interest under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the Chapter 11 Case);
WHEREAS, the Company has agreed to permit the Stockholder, on the date hereof, to designate one person to be nominated to serve on the board of directors of the Company (the Board) on the terms and conditions set forth herein; and
WHEREAS, on the date hereof, the Company is entering into substantially identical agreements (the Other Stockholders Agreements) with certain other former claim holders in the Chapter 11 Case that upon consummation thereof became stockholders of the Company.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:
Section 1. | Board of Directors. |
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, from and after the Effective Time and until a Termination Event (as defined below) shall have occurred, the Stockholder shall have the right to designate one person to be nominated to serve on the Board (the Nominee) by giving written notice to the Company in accordance with Section 6 hereof in no event later than the deadline for receipt of a stockholder proposal to be eligible for inclusion in the Companys proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, with respect to any meeting of the Companys stockholders at which directors of Class III are to be elected (or, if the Companys Certificate of Incorporation no longer provides for the division of directors into three (3) classes, any meeting of the Companys stockholders at which directors are to be elected) (any such meeting, an Applicable Election).
(b) The Stockholder will, in connection with such nomination, (i) provide such additional information about the Nominee as reasonably requested by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board or other relevant committee of the Board that oversees nominations of members of the Board (the Committee) and (ii) cause the Nominee to be reasonably available for interviews and discussions with the Committee.
(c) For so long as the Companys Certificate of Incorporation shall provide for the division of directors into three (3) classes, the Nominee shall be designated as a Class III
director. The initial Nominee shall be Jennifer Box, and the Company hereby confirms that such initial Nominee has been reviewed by and is acceptable to, and has been consented to by, the Committee and the Board.
(d) Subject to Section 1(m), the Company shall take all actions reasonably necessary to ensure that (i) the Nominee is included in the Boards slate of nominees submitted to the stockholders for election as directors at the next Applicable Election; (ii) the Nominee is included in the proxy statement prepared by management of the Company in connection with soliciting proxies for the next Applicable Election; (iii) the Board recommends that the Companys stockholders vote in favor of the election of the Nominee; (iv) the Company supports the Nominee for election in a manner no less favorable than the manner in which the Company supports its other nominees; and (v) the Company otherwise uses commercially reasonable efforts to cause the election of the Nominee to the Board at each Applicable Election.
(e) If there is a Nominee Rejection (as defined below) pursuant to Section 1(m) hereof, then the Stockholder shall have the right to designate an alternate person to be nominated for election by the Board (the Alternate Nominee) by giving written notice to the Company in accordance with Section 6 hereof in no event later than fifteen (15) days after receipt of notice of the Nominee Rejection.
(f) The Stockholder will, in connection with such nomination, (i) provide such additional information about the Alternate Nominee as reasonably requested by the Committee and (ii) cause the Alternate Nominee to be reasonably available for interviews and discussions with the Committee.
(g) Subject to Section 1(m), the Company shall take all actions reasonably necessary to ensure that: (i) the Alternate Nominee is included in the Boards slate of nominees submitted to the Companys stockholders for election as directors at the next Applicable Election; (ii) the Alternate Nominee is included in the proxy statement prepared by management of the Company in connection with soliciting proxies for the next Applicable Election; (iii) the Board recommends that the Companys stockholders vote in favor of the election of the Alternate Nominee; (iv) the Company supports the Alternate Nominee for election in a manner no less favorable than the manner in which the Company supports its other nominees; and (v) the Company otherwise uses commercially reasonable efforts to cause the election of the Alternate Nominee to the Board at each Applicable Election.
(h) The Company shall work in good faith with the Stockholder to identify and pre-clear Nominees and Alternate Nominees, as the case may be, and take such other actions as reasonably requested by the Stockholder to assist the Stockholder in submitting Nominees or Alternate Nominees, as the case may be, that will not result in a Nominee Rejection under Section 1(m) hereof.
(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the rights of the Stockholder under this Agreement shall terminate automatically (the Termination Event) upon the Stockholder, together with its Related Parties, ceasing to Beneficially Own for a period of twenty (20) consecutive trading days, in the aggregate, at least Twenty-Two Million Five Hundred Thousand (22,500,000) shares of Common Stock (the Minimum Shares). The Stockholder shall notify the Company within three (3) Business Days after the occurrence of a Termination Event.
2
(j) Prior to a Termination Event, if a vacancy occurs because of the death, disability, disqualification, resignation or removal of a Nominee or Alternate Nominee, as the case may be, as a member of the Board, the Company shall provide notice of such vacancy to the Stockholder within five (5) Business Days of such vacancy. The Stockholder shall be entitled to designate such persons successor (the Vacancy Nominee) by giving written notice to the Company within thirty (30) days of the date the Stockholder receives notification of the vacancy from the Company. The Stockholder will provide the Company with such additional information about the Vacancy Nominee as reasonably requested by the Committee and cause the Vacancy Nominee to be reasonably available for interviews and discussions with the Committee. Any successor that is appointed to fill a vacancy pursuant to this Section 1(j) shall have the right to serve until the next Applicable Election, or until his/her successor is elected and duly qualified.
(k) If there is a Nominee Rejection with respect to a Vacancy Nominee, then the Stockholder shall have the right to designate an alternative person to fill the vacancy (the Alternative Vacancy Nominee) by giving written notice to the Company in accordance with Section 6 hereof in no event later than fifteen (15) days after receipt of notice of the Nominee Rejection. The Stockholder will provide the Company with such additional information about the Alternative Vacancy Nominee as reasonably requested by the Committee and cause the Alternative Vacancy Nominee to be reasonably available for interviews and discussions with the Committee.
(l) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, and for the avoidance of doubt, the Stockholder shall only have the right to nominate or designate one person at a time to serve as a member of the Board in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 1, and in no event will the Company or the Board be obligated to nominate or designate a person to the Board that, upon such persons election by the stockholders of the Company or appointment by the Board, would result in more than one nominee or designee of the Stockholder serving as a member of the Board.
(m) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to appoint to the Board, cause to be nominated for election to the Board or recommend to the stockholders the election of any person the appointment, nomination or recommendation of whom the Board or the Committee determines in good faith, after consultation with and upon the advice of outside legal counsel, would constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties (a Nominee Rejection); provided, however, that upon the occurrence of a Nominee Rejection, the Company shall promptly notify the Stockholder of the occurrence of such Nominee Rejection and permit the Stockholder to provide an alternate person in accordance with the applicable provisions hereof (Section 1(e) for a Nominee or Alternate Nominee for election at stockholder meetings and Section 1(j) and Section 1(k) for a Vacancy Nominee or Alternative Vacancy Nominee for filling vacancies on the Board) and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to perform its obligations hereunder with respect to such alternate nominee.
3

9
Section 20. | Amendment and Waiver. |
Except as otherwise provided herein, no modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective against the Company or the Stockholder unless such modification is approved in writing by the Company and the Stockholder; provided, however that in the event of any modification to any Other Stockholders Agreement, the Company shall promptly offer to modify this Agreement, at no cost to the Stockholder, on an equivalent basis. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and shall not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.
