Mirant Corporation (MIR) and RRI Energy (RRI) announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement to create GenOn Energy, which will be one of the largest independent power producers in the United States, with approximately 24,700 megawatts-MW-of electric generating capacity and a pro forma market capitalization of $3.1B. The transaction is structured as an all-stock, tax-free merger. Under the terms of the merger agreement, which has been approved unanimously by the Boards of Directors of both companies, Mirant stockholders will receive a fixed ratio of 2.835 shares of RRI Energy common stock for each share of Mirant common stock they own.

Upon closing, which is expected before the end of 2010, Mirant stockholders will own approximately 54% of the equity of the combined company and RRI Energy stockholders will own approximately 46%. :theflyonthewall.com
