• CFM RISE* program targets more than 20 percent lower emissions
• Program will include open fan architecture, hybrid electric capability, demonstrator ground and flight tests around middle of decade
• 100 percent Sustainable Aviation Fuel, Hydrogen capability in scope

PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--GE Aviation and Safran today launched a bold technology development program targeting more than 20 percent lower fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions compared to today’s engines. The CFM RISE (Revolutionary Innovation for Sustainable Engines) program will demonstrate and mature a range of new, disruptive technologies for future engines that could enter service by the mid-2030s.

The companies today also signed an agreement extending the CFM International 50/50 partnership to the year 2050, declaring their intent to lead the way for more sustainable aviation in line with the industry’s commitment to halve CO₂ emissions by 2050.

“The relationship between GE and Safran today is the strongest it has ever been,” said John Slattery, President and CEO of GE Aviation. “Together, through the RISE technology demonstration program, we are reinventing the future of flight, bringing an advanced suite of revolutionary technologies to market that will take the next generation of single-aisle aircraft to a new level of fuel efficiency and reduced emissions. We fully embrace the sustainability imperative. As we have always done in the past, we will deliver for the future.”

"Our industry is in the midst of the most challenging times we have ever faced,” said Olivier Andriès, CEO of Safran. “We have to act now to accelerate our efforts to reduce our impact on the environment. Since the early 1970s, breakthrough engine efficiency and reliability have been the hallmark of our historic partnership and our LEAP engine already reduces emissions by 15 percent compared to previous generation engines. Through the extension of our CFM partnership to 2050, we are today reaffirming our commitment to work together as technology leaders to help our industry meet the urgent climate challenges.”

Technologies matured as part of the RISE Program will serve as the foundation for the next-generation CFM engine that could be available by the mid-2030s. The program goals include reducing fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions by more than 20 percent compared to today’s most efficient engines, as well as ensuring 100 percent compatibility with alternative energy sources such as Sustainable Aviation Fuels and hydrogen.

Central to the program is state-of-the-art propulsive efficiency for the engine, including developing an open fan architecture. This is a key enabler to achieving significantly improved fuel efficiency while delivering the same speed and cabin experience as current single-aisle aircraft. The program will also use hybrid electric capability to optimize engine efficiency while enabling electrification of many aircraft systems.

The program is being led by a joint GE/Safran engineering team that has laid out a comprehensive technology roadmap including composite fan blades, heat resistant metal alloys, ceramic matrix composites (CMCs), hybrid electric capability and additive manufacturing. The RISE program includes more than 300 separate component, module and full engine builds. A demonstrator engine is scheduled to begin testing at GE and Safran facilities around the middle of this decade and flight test soon thereafter.

The original 1974 framework agreement creating CFM International as a 50/50 joint venture between the two aircraft engine manufacturers redefined international cooperation and helped change the course of commercial aviation. The partnership was renewed in 2008 for the launch of the LEAP program. Today, CFM is the world's leading supplier of commercial aircraft engines with a product line that serves as the industry benchmark for efficiency, reliability and low overall cost of ownership. More than 35,000 CFM engines have been delivered to more than 600 operators around the globe, accumulating more than one billion flight hours.

Habitat Restoration Projects Rebuild Wetlands, Help Reduce Ocean Acidification in Louisiana and Texas

KENNESAW, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Yamaha Rightwaters is a new sponsor of the Ducks Unlimited Gulf Coast Initiative, a multi-year conservation initiative dedicated to rebuilding wetlands lost to erosion, subsidence and sea level rise in Louisiana and Texas. Through the Meraux Foundation Terracing Project in Louisiana and the Sargent Marsh Shoreline Protection Project in coastal Texas, Ducks Unlimited, Yamaha Rightwaters, and other supporters will restore designated seagrass and wetland habitats and contribute to climate mitigation through a combination of protecting buried carbon and sequestering atmospheric carbon at rates up to 530 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year across the two projects.

Yamaha Rightwaters will contribute $225,000 to Ducks Unlimited over a three-year period.

“The Yamaha Rightwaters team recognizes the importance of rebuilding wetlands and saltmarshes in the fight against ocean acidification,” said Adam Putnam, CEO of Ducks Unlimited. “Gulf Coast wetlands are among the most productive habitats in North America and, tragically, also the continent’s most rapidly disappearing wetland system. That’s why DU is working with conservation sponsors like Yamaha to invest nearly $16 million this year alone in projects through the Gulf Coast Initiative.”

Overall, the Gulf Coast Initiative projects supported by Yamaha Rightwaters serve to improve water quality, promote the growth of submerged aquatic vegetation, buffer storm surge and decrease erosion, counteract the impact of relative sea level rise, promote the growth of shellfish and other organisms that can remove more than one metric ton of nitrogen a year over a one-mile length of shoreline, and provide sustainable recreational and commercial fishing opportunities for the public.

The Meraux Foundation Terracing project in St. Bernard Parish, La., enhances 200 acres of marsh near the coastal community of Chalmette by constructing marsh terraces that will protect a flood protection levee, power lines and a walking trail. The project increases edge habitat along land/water interfaces, which is preferred by commercially and recreationally important marine fauna, including brown and white shrimp, blue crab, red drum, black drum, spotted sea trout, white trout and southern flounder.

The Sargent Marsh Shoreline Protection project involves the construction of a rock breakwater to halt shoreline erosion, reduce channel siltation and reverse adjacent marsh degradation along the Gulf Intercoastal Waterway and San Bernard National Wildlife Refuge in Brazoria and Matagorda counties in Texas. In addition to protecting interior marsh, these breakwaters provide structure for oysters and other fish.

“These Ducks Unlimited projects focus on habitat restoration as a means of enhancing the overall quality and sustainability of the wetlands. Habitat restoration is also an important cornerstone of the Yamaha Rightwaters mission,” said Ben Speciale, President, Yamaha U.S. Marine Business Unit. “The sequestration of carbon dioxide through these efforts plays a critical role in preserving and sustaining healthy fisheries for generations to come. We look forward to the progress we will make together in Louisiana and Texas.”

Yamaha Rightwaters is a national sustainability program that encompasses all of Yamaha Marine’s conservation and water quality efforts. Program initiatives include habitat restoration, support for scientific research, mitigation of invasive species, the reduction of marine debris and environmental stewardship education. Yamaha Rightwaters reinforces Yamaha’s long-standing history of natural resource conservation, support of sustainable recreational fishing and water resources and Angler Code of Ethics, which requires pro anglers to adhere to principles of stewardship for all marine resources.

Ducks Unlimited Inc. is the world's largest nonprofit organization dedicated to conserving North America's continually disappearing waterfowl habitats. Established in 1937, Ducks Unlimited has conserved more than 15 million acres thanks to contributions from more than a million supporters across the continent. Guided by science and dedicated to program efficiency, DU works toward the vision of wetlands sufficient to fill the skies with waterfowl today, tomorrow and forever.

(“EGTS”) today announced that it has commenced offers to all Eligible Holders (as defined below) to exchange (the “Exchange Offers”) certain notes previously issued by Eastern Energy Gas Holdings, LLC (“EEGH”) listed in the table below (together, the “Existing EEGH Notes”) for up to $1.6 billion aggregate principal amount (the “Maximum Exchange Amount”) of certain new notes to be issued by EGTS (collectively, the “New EGTS Notes”), pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in a confidential offering memorandum and consent solicitation statement, dated as of June 11, 2021 (the “Exchange Offer Memorandum”).

The following table sets forth the Early Tender Consideration and Expiration Time Consideration offered for each series of Existing EEGH Notes:

Subject to the Maximum Exchange Amount, proration terms and other terms set forth in the Exchange Offer Memorandum, the amounts of each series of Existing EEGH Notes that are accepted in the Exchange Offers will be determined in accordance with the acceptance priority levels set forth in the table above (the “Acceptance Priority Levels”), with Acceptance Priority Level 1 being the highest Acceptance Priority Level and Acceptance Priority Level 9 being the lowest Acceptance Priority Level. As a result, the reduction, if any, in the amount of Existing EEGH Notes of any particular series that remains outstanding following consummation of the Exchange Offers is expected to be largest in the series of Existing EEGH Notes having higher Acceptance Priority Levels.

In conjunction with the Exchange Offers, EEGH is soliciting consents (the “Consents” and, such solicitations, the “Consent Solicitations”) to adopt certain proposed amendments to the indenture governing the Existing EEGH Notes (as supplemented for each particular series of Existing EEGH Notes, the “Existing EEGH Notes Indentures”) to eliminate certain events of default, modify covenants regarding mergers and consolidations, and modify or eliminate certain other provisions, including certain provisions relating to liens and defeasance, contained in the Existing EEGH Notes Indentures and the Existing EEGH Notes (the “Proposed Amendments”). The Proposed Amendments will become effective with respect to a particular series of Existing EEGH Notes that remain outstanding following the relevant Exchange Offer to the extent (i) participation in the Exchange Offer by such series of Existing EEGH Notes exceeds 50% of the outstanding principal amount of such series and (ii) all tendered Existing EEGH Notes of such series are accepted for exchange in the related Exchange Offer.

The Exchange Offers and the Consent Solicitations will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on July 9, 2021, unless extended or earlier terminated (such time and date, as the same may be extended, the “Expiration Time”).

Eligible Holders who validly tender and do not validly withdraw their Existing EEGH Notes at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 24, 2021 (such date and time with respect to an Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation, as the same may be extended for such Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation, the “Early Tender Time”), will be eligible to receive, in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of Existing EEGH Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn, the applicable consideration as set forth in the table above under the heading “Early Tender Notes Consideration” (the “Early Tender Notes Consideration”) and the premium set forth in the table above under the heading “Early Tender Premium” (the “Early Tender Premium” and, together with the Early Tender Notes Consideration, the “Early Tender Consideration”).

Eligible Holders who validly tender and do not validly withdraw their Existing EEGH Notes after the Early Tender Time but at or prior to the Expiration Time will be eligible to receive, in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of Existing EEGH Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn, the applicable consideration as set forth in the table above under the heading “Expiration Time Consideration” (the “Expiration Time Consideration”).

Tenders of Existing EEGH Notes may be withdrawn and Consents may be revoked at any time at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 24, 2021, but not thereafter, subject to limited exceptions or as otherwise required by applicable law, unless such time is extended (such time and date with respect to the Exchange Offers, as the same may be extended, the “Withdrawal Deadline”).

Eligible Holders (as defined below) of Existing EEGH Notes that tender such Existing EEGH Notes will be deemed to have given Consent to the Proposed Amendments (in respect of the applicable series of Existing EEGH Notes tendered). Eligible Holders of Existing EEGH Notes may not tender their Existing EEGH Notes without delivering a Consent with respect to such Existing EEGH Notes and such holders may not deliver a Consent without tendering the related Existing EEGH Notes in the applicable Exchange Offer. A valid withdrawal of tendered Existing EEGH Notes will also constitute the revocation of the related Consent with respect to the applicable indenture governing that series of Existing EEGH Notes. Consents may only be revoked by validly withdrawing the tendered Existing EEGH Notes at or prior to the Withdrawal Deadline.

There is no minimum condition to the acceptance of Existing EEGH Notes tendered under the Exchange Offers or the acceptance of Consents under the Consent Solicitations; however, the approval and effectiveness of the Proposed Amendments with respect to any series of Existing EEGH Notes is subject to (among other things) participation in the Exchange Offer by the holders of more than 50% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such series immediately prior to the Expiration Time. EGTS has the right to terminate, withdraw or amend at its sole discretion the Exchange Offers and EEGH has the right to terminate, withdraw or amend at its sole discretion the Consent Solicitations, either as a whole, or with respect to one or more series of Existing EEGH Notes, at any time and for any reason, including based on the acceptance rate and outcome of the Exchange Offers or the Consent Solicitations or failure to satisfy any condition to the Exchange Offers or the Consent Solicitations.

EGTS, in its sole discretion, may modify or terminate the Exchange Offers and may extend the Early Tender Time, the Expiration Time and/or the settlement date with respect to the Exchange Offers, subject to applicable law. Any such modification, termination or extension by EGTS will automatically modify, terminate or extend the corresponding Consent Solicitations by EEGH, as applicable.

EGTS will return to EEGH all Existing EEGH Notes which are validly tendered and accepted in the Exchange Offers (the “Returned Notes”), and EEGH will cancel such Returned Notes. At the date hereof, EGTS has $1.895 billion of long term indebtedness to EEGH (the “EGTS Long Term Debt”). In exchange for EGTS returning the Returned Notes, EEGH will cancel an aggregate principal amount of the EGTS Long Term Debt equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Returned Notes, and such debt cancellation will be treated as a capital contribution to EGTS. In addition, EEGH will, following completion of the Exchange Offers, make a further capital contribution to EGTS through its cancellation of the then-remaining balance of the EGTS Long Term Debt.

The New EGTS Notes have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements, or any state or foreign securities laws. Accordingly, the Exchange Offers are being made, and the New EGTS Notes are being offered and issued, only (a) in the United States to holders of Existing EEGH Notes who are reasonably believed to be “qualified institutional buyers” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act), and (b) outside the United States to holders of Existing EEGH Notes who are not U.S. persons, in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act. The holders of Existing EEGH Notes who have certified to EGTS and EEGH that they are eligible to participate in the Exchange Offers pursuant to at least one of the foregoing conditions are referred to as “Eligible Holders.” Only Eligible Holders who have completed and returned an Eligibility Letter, available from the information agent (available at https://gbsc-usa.com/eligibility/eegh), are authorized to receive or review the Exchange Offer Memorandum or to participate in the Exchange Offers. EGTS will also enter into a registration rights agreement with the Dealer Managers, for the benefit of the holders of the New EGTS Notes.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or purchase, or a solicitation of an offer to sell or purchase, or the solicitation of tenders or consents with respect to, any security. No offer, solicitation, purchase or sale will be made in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful. The Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations are being made solely pursuant to the Exchange Offer Memorandum and only to such persons and in such jurisdictions as is permitted under applicable law.

GRAND ISLAND, Neb. & HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Chief Industries, Inc. (“Chief”) and Catahoula Resources (“Catahoula”) have entered into an agreement to jointly develop carbon capture and permanent sequestration (“CCS”) within Nebraska.

Through this arrangement, Chief Ethanol, a division of Chief Industries, Inc. based in Hastings, NE, joins forces with Catahoula, a portfolio company of private investment firm The Energy and Minerals Group (“EMG”), one of the largest investors in midstream infrastructure in North America and a proven leader in identifying, developing and executing world-class design/build/operate capabilities for midstream assets.

Catahoula and Chief are currently evaluating CCS infrastructure investments that will enhance the sustainability and improve the economics of ethanol production through low-cost carbon storage within Nebraska.

“We see Nebraska’s forward-thinking support of carbon dioxide sequestration as a springboard for differentiating Nebraska’s ethanol industry and we are excited to expand upon this vision by aligning with Chief--a strong, deeply rooted, family-owned company. The use of proven carbon capture infrastructure targeting nearby, low-cost storage is a compelling plan for investment in the local economies of Nebraska,” said Jeff Rawls, CEO of Catahoula Resources.
