Applicant and this new Investor intend to close funding for the sale of these equity interests by Oct. 28, 2016. Invenergy is the direct owner of 100% of the equity interests in IWWH, which is the direct owner of 100% of Wake Wind Class B Holdings LLC, which in turn is the direct owner of 100% of the equity interests in Wake Wind Holdings LLC. Wake Wind Holdings LLC is the direct owner of 100% of the equity interests in Wake Wind Energy LLC, which is developing a 257.3-MW wind project located in Crosby, Floyd and Dickens counties, Texas.

Invenergy will convey 90.1% of the equity interests in IWWH to Southern.
