ITEM 8.01 — OTHER EVENTS

On February 23, 2006, Calpine Corporation (the “Company”) received funding for its $2 billion debtor-in-possession credit facility (“DIP Facility”). The DIP Facility will help fund the Company’s operations as it works toward emerging from its Chapter 11 restructuring.

Deutsche Bank and Credit Suisse were co-lead arrangers for the DIP Facility, which consists of:

 

•

$1 billion Revolving Credit Facility, priced at LIBOR plus 225 basis points;

 

•

$400 million First-Priority Term Loan, priced at LIBOR plus 225 basis points; and

 

•

$600 million Second-Priority Term Loan, priced at LIBOR plus 400 basis points.

The DIP Facility is secured by liens on all of the unencumbered assets of the Company and all of the Company’s subsidiaries that have also filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, and junior liens on all of their encumbered assets, and will remain in place until the earlier of an effective Plan of Reorganization or December 20, 2007.
