Explanatory Note
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) is
being filed by NRG Energy, Inc. (“NRG” or the “Company”) to amend the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on November 20, 2023 (the “Initial Form 8-K”), solely to supplement the Company’s
disclosure under Item 5.02 of the Initial Form 8-K. This Amendment provides a description of the compensation of: (i) Lawrence Coben,
in connection with his appointment as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer; (ii) Anne Schaumburg, in connection with her appointment
as the Company’s lead independent director; and (iii) Lisa Donohue, in connection with her appointment as chair of the CEO Search
Committee of the Board of Directors. At the time of the filing of the Initial Form 8-K, the compensation in connection with the foregoing
appointments had not yet been determined. This Amendment does not otherwise modify or update any other disclosures in the Initial
Form 8-K.
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of
Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On December 7, 2023, the Board of Directors (the “Board”)
of the Company, upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board, approved the following compensation packages for Dr.
Coben, Ms. Schaumburg and Ms. Donohue.
As Interim President and CEO, Dr. Coben has elected to receive an
annual base salary of $100,000 with the remainder of his total annualized compensation in the form of Restricted Stock Units
(“Interim CEO RSUs”). The total amount of Interim CEO RSUs delivered to Mr. Coben will be
prorated for the time spent in the role for the one year measured from November 17, 2023 to the date on which Dr. Coben steps down
as Interim President and CEO, which will equate to $993,750 per month of service. To the extent vested based upon his service, the
Interim CEO RSUs will be payable over three years in increments of one-third of the vested amount on each anniversary of the grant
date and subject to forfeiture at any point prior to payment for a termination for cause. During his tenure as Interim
President and CEO, Dr. Coben will not receive separate compensation as a non-employee director or Chair of the Board.
Ms. Schaumburg will receive a retainer of $45,000, of which fifty percent
(50%) will be paid in cash and fifty percent (50%) will be paid in equity in the form of Deferred Stock Units. No other changes are being
made to Ms. Schaumburg’s compensation pursuant to the Company’s director compensation plan.
Ms. Donohue will receive a retainer of $20,000, of which fifty percent
(50%) will be paid in cash and fifty percent (50%) will be paid in equity in the form of Deferred Stock Units. No other changes are being
made to Ms. Donohue’s compensation pursuant to the Company’s director compensation plan.
