Except as set forth above, the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer
described in the Offer to Purchase, dated August 7, 2017 (Offer to
Purchase), remain unchanged. Holders of the Securities are urged to
carefully read the Offer to Purchase before making any decision with

(1)		Excludes accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the applicable Settlement Date (as defined below), which will be paid in addition to the Tender Offer Consideration (as defined below) or Total Consideration (as defined below), as applicable.
(2)		Includes the Early Tender Premium (as defined below).

The total consideration for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities
validly tendered at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August
18, 2017 (such date and time, as it may be extended by us, the Early
Tender Date), and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer,
will be the total consideration set forth in the table above (Total
Consideration). The Total Consideration includes the early tender
premium for the Securities also set forth in the table above (Early
Tender Premium). Holders must validly tender and not subsequently
validly withdraw their Securities at or prior to the Early Tender Date
in order to be eligible to receive the Total Consideration for such
Securities purchased in the Tender Offer.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer, each holder who
validly tenders and does not subsequently validly withdraw their
Securities at or prior to the Early Tender Date will be entitled to
receive the Total Consideration, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to,
but not including, the applicable Settlement Date (as defined below).
Holders who validly tender their Securities after the Early Tender Date
but at or prior to the Expiration Date will be entitled to receive the
tender offer consideration equal to the Total Consideration less the
Early Tender Premium (Tender Offer Consideration), plus accrued and
unpaid interest up to, but not including, the applicable Settlement
Date, if and when such Securities are accepted for payment.

Dynegy reserves the right but is under no obligation, at any point
following the Early Tender Date and before the Expiration Date, to
accept for purchase any Securities validly tendered at or prior to the
Early Tender Date (Early Settlement Date), subject to the Tender Cap
Amount. The Early Settlement Date will be determined at our option and
is currently expected to occur on the business day following the Early
Tender Date. Irrespective of whether we choose to exercise our option to
have an Early Settlement Date, we will purchase any remaining Securities
that have been validly tendered by the Expiration Date and that we
choose to accept for purchase, subject to the Tender Cap Amount, on a
date promptly following the Expiration Date (Final Settlement Date and,
each of the Early Settlement Date and Final Settlement Date, a
Settlement Date). The Final Settlement Date is expected to occur on the
business day following the Expiration Date.

If the aggregate principal amount of Securities validly tendered in the
Tender Offer exceeds the Tender Cap Amount, we will accept such
Securities on a pro rata basis. Dynegy reserves the right to increase or
decrease the Tender Cap Amount, at any time, subject to compliance with
applicable law without extending withdrawal rights.

Securities tendered may be withdrawn from the Tender Offer at or prior
to, but not after, 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 18, 2017,
unless extended, by following the procedures described in the Offer to
Purchase.

The Tender Offer is not conditioned upon any minimum amount of
Securities being validly tendered. Our obligation to accept for payment
and to pay for the Securities in the Tender Offer is subject to the
satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions as described in the
Offer to Purchase, including the consummation of a concurrent notes
offering on terms satisfactory to Dynegy (Financing Transaction). We
reserve the right, subject to applicable law, to waive any one or more
of the conditions with respect to the Tender Offer at any time.

We have issued a conditional notice of redemption to redeem $1.25
billion of the Securities, less the aggregate principal amount of
Securities purchased by us in the Tender Offer, conditioned upon the
completion of the Financing Transaction. The redemption is expected to
occur on September 6, 2017. The Securities are currently redeemable at a
price of 103.375% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued
and unpaid interest. This news release does not constitute a notice of
redemption of the Securities.

D.F. King & Co., Inc. to act as both the Information Agent and the
Tender Agent in connection with the Tender Offer. Questions regarding
