Exhibit 4.4
TWENTY-SEVENTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE
     Twenty-Seventh Supplemental Indenture (this “Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of October 5, 2009, among NRG Retail LLC, Reliant Energy Power Supply, LLC, Reliant Energy Retail Holdings, LLC, RERH Holdings, LLC, Reliant Energy Retail Services, LLC and RE Retail Receivables, LLC (each a “Guaranteeing Subsidiary” and together the “Guaranteeing Subsidiaries”), each an indirect subsidiary of NRG Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the Company, the Existing Guarantors set forth on the signature page hereto (the “Existing Guarantors”) and Law Debenture Trust Company of New York, as trustee under the indentures referred to below (the “Trustee”).
W I T N E S S E T H
     WHEREAS, the Company has heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an indenture (the “Base Indenture”), dated as of February 2, 2006, between the Company and the Trustee, as amended by a Twenty-Second Supplemental Indenture (the “Twenty-Second Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of June 5, 2009, among the Company, the Existing Guarantors party thereto and the Trustee, providing for the original issuance of an aggregate principal amount of $700 million of 8.50% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “Initial Notes”), and, subject to the terms of the Twenty-Second Supplemental Indenture, future unlimited issuances of 8.50% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “Additional Notes,” and together with the Initial Notes, the “Notes”), and a twenty-third supplemental indenture, dated as of July 14, 2009, among the Company, the Existing Guarantors and the Trustee (the “Twenty-Third Supplemental Indenture” and together with the Base Indenture and the Twenty-Second Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”);
     WHEREAS, the Indenture provides that under certain circumstances each Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which such Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Company’s Obligations under the Notes and the Indenture (each a “Subsidiary Guarantee” and together, the “Subsidiary Guarantees”); and
     WHEREAS, Section 9.01 of the Twenty-Second Supplemental Indenture provides that the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Twenty-Second Supplemental Indenture without the consent of any Holders of the Notes in order to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency as well as to conform the text of the Twenty-Second Supplemental Indenture to any provision of the “Description of the Notes” section of the Company’s Prospectus Supplement, dated June 2, 2009, relating to the initial offering of the Notes (the “Prospectus Supplement”).
     WHEREAS, the definition of “Applicable Premium” in Section 1.01 of the Twenty-Second Supplemental Indenture is: (a) ambiguous, in that it references the “redemption price of the Note at January 15, 2012 (such redemption price being set forth in the table appearing under Section 3.07 hereof)” while the referenced table in Section 3.07 does not set forth a redemption price as of such date; and (b) inconsistent with the definition of “Applicable Premium” in the Description of the Notes section of the Prospectus Supplement, and must be revised to cure such ambiguities and inconsistencies.
     WHEREAS, this Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company (including a Board Resolution);
     WHEREAS, pursuant to Sections 4.17 and 9.01 of the Twenty-Second Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture.
     WHEREAS, all things necessary to make this Supplemental Indenture a valid indenture and agreement according to its terms have been done.

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the Guaranteeing Subsidiaries, the Trustee, the Company and the other Guarantors mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows:
     1. Capitalized Terms. Unless otherwise defined in this Supplemental Indenture, capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
     2. Agreement to be Bound; Guarantee. Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby becomes a party to the Supplemental Indenture as a Guarantor and as such will have all of the rights and be subject to all of the Obligations and agreements of a Guarantor under the Indenture. Each Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees to be bound by all of the provisions of the Supplemental Indenture applicable to a Guarantor and to perform all of the Obligations and agreements of a Guarantor under the Supplemental Indenture. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall be deemed a Guarantor for purposes of Article 10 of the Supplemental Indenture, including, without limitation, Section 10.02 thereof.
     3. Amendment to Section 1.01 of the Twenty-Second Supplemental Indenture. The definition of “Applicable Premium” in Section 1.01 of the Twenty-Second Supplemental Indenture is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:
““Applicable Premium” means, with respect to any note on any redemption date, the greater of:
(1) 1.0% of the principal amount of the note; or
(2) the excess of:
(a) the present value at such redemption date of (i) the redemption price of the Note at June 15, 2014, (such redemption price being set forth in the table appearing under Section 3.07 hereof) plus (ii) all required interest payments due on the Note through June 15, 2014 (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date), computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate as of such redemption date plus 50 basis points; over
(b) the principal amount of the Note, if greater.”
