CERTAIN INFORMATION CONCERNING THE PARTICIPANTS


WE VOTE NO –
TO THE PROPOSED DEAL
WRONG PRICE
We
believe
worth
more
than
$6
per
share
today
and
up
to
$16
-
$18
in
a
recovery
scenario
Valued at less than 1/3 of replacement cost
Nearly 7.5% unlevered free cash flow yield at low point in electricity price cycle rising to as much as
14 -
17% in a power price recovery with additional upside if gas prices recover
Substantial optionality of assets and balance sheet creates highly compelling asymmetric risk/reward
opportunity
WRONG TIME
Down
42%
since
proposal
of
ill-conceived
and
questionably
motivated
reverse
split
-
dramatic
underperformance
Traded down to virtually its ALL-TIME low on the day prior to Merger announcement
Cyclical trough in power industry with Q1 2011 EPA clean air rule proposals providing a roadmap to
recovery
Highly flexible bond structure allows access to liquidity and provides optionality
WRONG REASONS
Management owns approximately $1 million of unrestricted stock but receives almost $38 million
($0.31/share)
if
deal
closes
an
arrangement
that
is
largely
irrespective
of
deal
price
Management has engaged in a scorched-earth campaign making sudden unsubstantiated claims
about liquidity in a stark contrast to public statements in the weeks leading up to the deal
Transaction structure featured significant obstacles to attracting superior offers, including NRG
exclusivity
and
a
$50
million
break-up
fee
-
9.2%
of
equity
value,
a
nearly
unprecedented
%
of
equity
Break-up fees are typically compared to equity purchase price, not enterprise value

AND YES TO THE POWER OF
CHANGE
NEW LEADERSHIP
What if…
shareholders elect two high-quality directors that believe in the
value proposition for a re-focused Dynegy?
ALIGNMENT OF INTERESTS
What if…
shareholders propose a compensation plan that properly aligns
directors/management with shareholder value?
SHAREHOLDER VOICE
What if…
shareholders propose resolutions encouraging:
Review of top management
Strategic review of assets
Optimization of debt structure
Optimization of cost structure
Unwind of reverse stock split

MAKING THE REFOCUSED DYNEGY THE PREMIER VEHICLE TO
PARTICIPATE IN POWER MARKET RECOVERY


WHY IS SENECA SPEAKING
OUT?
Seneca is the largest economic equity holder in Dynegy
11.8% total interest includes 9.3% of voting common stock and economic exposure
to
an
additional
2.5%
of
common
stock
through
non-voting
$0.01
European
call
options
Seneca only benefits if stock price improves and loses money if stock price declines
Seneca has no other interests in Dynegy debt or equity
No equity shorts, CDS, bonds, LCDS, bank debt, structured interests or any other
positions
13D rules compel disclosure
Seneca has a successful track record of concentrated long-term, deep-value investments
in the power and energy sector
Supported shareholder alignment in Texas Genco and RRI directly followed by
substantial gains for shareholders
Members of Seneca team have covered Dynegy closely for more than
10 years
Seneca has only filed one other 13D since our founding in 1996
Uniquely attractive nature of Dynegy investment opportunity compels us to take this
extraordinary step

EPA CLEAN AIR RULES ARE
JUST AROUND THE CORNER
Proposed EPA rules for sulfur/
NOx/mercury emissions are a game
changer for electricity prices as many
un-scrubbed plants should close
More than 5,700 MW of shutdowns
already announced for 2010 –
2015
(1)
Credit Suisse estimates ~60GW of coal
plants
will
close
between
2013-17

Significant impacts on power and
capacity markets
Exelon estimates that PJM power
prices could increase $5/MWh -
$7/MWh
Capacity prices for its PJM fleet could
increase by up to $100/MW-day by
2015

AND DYNEGY’S ASSETS ARE
PRIMED TO BENEFIT
(1)
$/kw estimates for cost of adding environmental equipment are per Growth from Subtraction.
Dynegy is extremely well positioned to benefit from EPA Clean Air rules given its substantial investment in
pollution control equipment
Its largest, most efficient plants will have been scrubbed
We estimate pollution control equipment for Dynegy’s coal fleet will have a replacement value of
more than
$1.7bn
upon
completion
A
MAJOR
COMPETITIVE
ADVANTAGE

THE NATURAL GAS PAIN HAS
ALREADY BEEN SUFFERED

THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL

We believe that a refocused Dynegy has a fresh opportunity to optimize costs
Dynegy’s
overhead
structure
was
originally
designed
to
support
a
larger
asset
base
with
a
substantial
trading operation
The Merger Proxy highlights an additional $50 million a year ($0.40/share of annual cash flow) of potential
overhead savings
Why were these savings not disclosed before the Merger announcement?
Dynegy
spends
more
than
$20
million
per
year
on
unutilized
credit
facilities
(1)
More than 50% of total non-fuel operating expenditures (Non-fuel O&M plus SG&A) relate to non-plant
level functions
(2)
Dynegy’s 2010 cash operating expenditures (Non-fuel O&M, SG&A and maintenance capex) is more than 15%
higher than GenOn has guided on a $/kw-year basis

SUBSTANTIAL OPERATING CASH
FLOW THROUGH THE TROUGH
Dynegy does not pay cash taxes and has low maintenance capex therefore we
believe
free
cash
flow
is
the
most
accurate
valuation
metric
for
Dynegy
Dynegy trades in line with peers on free cash flow but has better leverage to
power market upside
(1)
See appendix for detail regarding IPP comparables
(2)
On page 6 of Dynegy’s presentation “Setting the Record Straight: The Truth About Asset Sales, Dividends and Debt Facilities”
dated October 2010 (“Setting the Record Straight”), Dynegy states that “If asset retirements do not materialize, EBITDA would be
reduced
by
an
average
of
$85mm
each

THIS IS A CYCLICAL BUSINESS
NEAR A CYCLICAL TROUGH
Electricity prices and dark spreads have fallen to near 6-year lows
Weak demand has exacerbated the excess supply
The decline of natural gas prices relative to coal has significantly
impacted coal plant profitability

BUT RECOVERY IS WITHIN
SIGHT
We expect that Midwest power markets will recover over the next several years:
EPA Clean Air rules
Rational
decisions
by
plant
owners
to
retire
old
and
inefficient
capacity
Gradual increase in demand
Industry leaders and research analysts are already discussing the 2014/15 impacts
Credit Suisse, Sanford Bernstein, Citigroup, Exelon, PSE&G, Edison Mission, PPL, FE all
have highlighted this dynamic
Markets often price in recovery in advance of the actual recovery
Q1 2011 EPA rule proposals, PJM May 2011 capacity auction (for 2014/15) and
potential MISO capacity market proposals are key near-term catalysts

NATURAL GAS PRICE
DYNAMICS
Natural gas prices are currently at levels not seen for 8 years
The current gas price is not sustainable as many plays that are considered

DISSENTING DIRECTOR
Victor Grijalva, former Vice Chairman of Schlumberger, voted
AGAINST approval of the merger:
Sharp and anomalous drop in Dynegy’s stock price over
prior 3-month period
Stock trading at historically low price
Price did not reflect its trading price over a longer period of
time or its potential for future appreciation
Questioned evolution of transaction’s terms and conditions
(e.g., significant diminution of price, NRG asset sale
condition)

MISALIGNMENT LEADS TO
POOR DECISIONS
Poor
performance
created
a
situation
where
certainty
of
a
$10
million
change-of-
control payment (part of the overall $38 million package) outweighed the effort
required to achieve EBITDA and stock price targets
Performance awards have been awarded to executives each year:
Target award values can be achieved by attaining certain 3-year stock price (2/3) and
cumulative EBITDA (1/3) targets
The range below represents the minimum levels required to earn the performance
bonus and the maximum level of achievement (200% of target award)
All performance units vest at 100% of the target award amount upon a change of
control.

WHY THE GO-SHOP DIDN’T
MAXIMIZE VALUE
Dynegy administered a 40-day go-shop period that did not
produce any offers superior to $4.50 per share 
40-day time frame was insufficient
Conducted during mid / late August, a traditionally slow period
Sale of assets to NRG was exclusive
Incumbent right to match a superior offer
No expense reimbursement for matched offers
Restrictive confidentiality agreement (only 8 out of 42 contacted
parties signed CA)
We have spoken with industry sources who cited one or more of
the concerns above as significant barriers to their participation in
the process
We believe that there should be substantial interest in a variety
of Dynegy’s assets once the merger is voted down

THE POWER TO CHANGE
39


A PATH TO VALUE
Shortly after the defeat of the Merger, shareholders have the power to 
refocus Dynegy for success
Dynegy’s shareholder-friendly charter and bylaws allow a majority of
stockholders to replace directors and adopt shareholder resolutions
acting by written consent in lieu of a meeting
November: Seneca currently expects to file preliminary consent
solicitation materials with the SEC to obtain majority shareholder
approval to replace 2 existing board members and adopt value
enhancing shareholder resolutions
December: Upon expected SEC clearance of consent materials and
majority shareholder approval, Dynegy board will be reinvigorated with
two new directors that believe in the value proposition for a refocused
Dynegy and is empowered by strong shareholder support for value
maximization
40
Seneca is in Discussions With Several Extraordinarily Strong Potential
Board Candidates Compelled by the Dynegy Investment Opportunity


SHAREHOLDER RESOLUTIONS
Resolutions would encourage the new Directors to:
Determine which of the current top management team is
appropriate for Dynegy going forward
Create proper alignment of interests between management / board
of directors and shareholders (through revised compensation plans)
Analyze and pursue asset sales given strategic / operational fit
and
current valuation and other financial considerations
Optimize debt structure and examine opportunities to return capital
to shareholders
Analyze hedging and collateral posting strategy
Investigate additional cost-cutting opportunities
Unwind reverse stock split
41
With The Goal of Maximizing Dynegy
Shareholder Value Over the Long-Term


STAYING PUBLIC:
THE PHOENIX RISES
Public market will recognize value of new board / management
Properly aligned with shareholders
Reinvigorated and focused on creating shareholder value
Public markets demonstrate a willingness to price in mid-cycle
well in anticipation of recovery
Numerous examples of cyclical investors accelerating recognition
of mid-cycle economics –
land rigs, jack-ups, aluminum
Key catalysts upcoming on EPA clean air rules and forward
capacity auctions –
expect to be an important theme for 2011
Potential vehicle for future consolidation
Synergy value from strategic
transactions continue to represent an
additional value driver for public shareholders

REVERSE STOCK SPLITS ARE A
RECIPE FOR UNDERPERFORMANCE
“The reverse split provides an interesting
opportunity for investors who can take full
benefit from the short side of the portfolio.”
…Creating a Key Signal for Sellers
“The dismal short-term and long-term
performance of reverse-split stocks is consistent
across time. Reverse splits have performed
poorly in almost every year, boosting the reverse
split’s reliability as a stay-away sign..”
Reverse Stock Splits Consistently Perform Poorly…
We Believe Dynegy Should Unwind Their Reverse Stock Split
Credit Suisse conducted a 30 year extensive study of reverse splits and concluded…

THE PREMIER VEHICLE TO PLAY
POWER RECOVERY
Compelling valuation with catalysts
Sum-of-the-parts valuation supports stock price of greater than $6 per share, 7.5% un-
levered free cash yield at low point in the cycle, trading at less than 1/3 of replacement
cost
EPA-driven plant retirements will be a game changer for Dynegy’s scrubbed plants
Proposed rules on CATR and HAP MACT and upcoming capacity auctions in Q1/Q2
2011 provide important signal to markets

scenario –Midwest coal plants currently earning ~$17/mw-day capacity prices versus

Seneca owns 12% economic interest and is solely motivated by increasing shareholder value
Fully aligned with shareholders
Management owns less than 1% and receives $38 million change of control if deal
consummates
Misaligned with shareholders
Last year management bought back nearly 30% of its own stock at $9.65/sh only to turn around
this year and recommend that shareholders sell out at $4.50/sh ($0.90/sh pre-reverse split)
After
years
of
stock
price
declines
and
unsuccessful
attempts
to
sell
the
company
at
substantially higher prices, management and the board are throwing in the towel near the
bottom
of
the
cycle
and
management
is
being
rewarded
On
August
6
management
presented
a
bright
outlook
for
the
company’s
commercial/
financial
prospects
After
agreeing
to
the
deal
a
week
later,
management
suddenly
and
unjustifiably
presented
the
company’s financial situation as dire
Dynegy
investors
have
the
potential
to
triple
or
quadruple
their
investment
over
the
next
several
years as power prices recover
EPA rules provide near-term catalyst for value recognition
Downside risk is mitigated by cost cutting and balance sheet optimization opportunities as well
as unwinding of reverse split
Substantial unutilized secured debt capacity provides the liquidity to support tremendous time
value
Alignment
Throwing in

th


CONCLUSION
47
WE VOTE NO TO THE PROPOSED DEAL
WRONG PRICE
We
believe
worth
more
than
$6
per
share
today
and
up
to
$16
-
$18
in
a
recovery
scenario
Valued at less than 1/3 of replacement cost
Nearly 7.5% unlevered free cash flow yield at low point in electricity price cycle rising to as much as
14 -
17% in a power price recovery with additional upside if gas prices recover
Substantial optionality of assets and balance sheet creates highly compelling asymmetric risk/reward
opportunity
WRONG TIME
Down
42%
since
proposal
of
ill-conceived
and
questionably
motivated
reverse
split
-
dramatic
underperformance
Traded down to virtually its ALL-TIME low on the day prior to Merger announcement
Cyclical trough in power industry with Q1 2011 EPA clean air rule proposals providing a roadmap to
recovery
Highly flexible bond structure allows access to liquidity and provides optionality
WRONG REASONS
Management owns approximately $1 million of unrestricted stock but receives almost $38 million
($0.31/share)
if
deal
closes
an
arrangement
that
is
largely
irrespective
of
deal
price
Management has engaged in a scorched earth campaign making sudden unsubstantiated claims
about liquidity in a stark contrast to public statements in the weeks leading up to the deal
Transaction structure featured significant obstacles to attracting superior offers, including NRG
exclusivity
and
a
$50
million
break-up
fee
-
9.2%
of
equity
value,
a
nearly
unprecedented
%
of
equity
Break-up fees are typically compared to equity purchase price, not enterprise value

EPA CLEAN AIR RULES WILL
CHANGE MARKET DYNAMICS
Upcoming EPA rules will likely force coal generators to either invest in
expensive control technologies or shut down
Stringent Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) Rules
would require compliance as early as 2014
Environmental controls are very expensive and unlikely for many plants
if the current power price environment persists
(1)
Pursuant to the Midwest Consent Decree, Dynegy will have spent $730
mm (out of a total of $960 mm) of environmental capital expenditures
for the Midwest fleet by the end of 2010 and will have substantially
completed its environmental capital expenditure program by 2013.

EPA RULES : WHO IS AT RISK?
According to Credit Suisse, only 34% of the coal capacity in the
US has
installed (or is announced plans to install) both scrubbers and SCRs
and 30% have no environmental controls at all.
Smaller coal plants are less likely to invest in environmental controls as
the capital cost is significantly higher on a $ / kw basis.  More than
50,000 MW of small coal plants have no environmental controls
installed

EPA RULES: WHAT DOES IT
ALL MEAN?
Credit Suisse base case assumes that 60GW of coal capacity
will
be
retired,
causing
several
1
and
order
impacts
on
power and commodity markets:
Tightening reserve margins leading to higher capacity prices
Reduction in demand for coal
Increase in demand for natural gas
Reserve margins expected to tighten quickly (even assuming
new build and demand response) leading to increased capacity
payments to generators

EPA RULES: CATR
Proposed rule issued in July 2010, that would set emission caps
for SO
2
and NOx for 31 eastern states and Washington D.C.
Final rule expected in March 2011
EPA projects that, by 2014, the proposed rule would (in the
covered area):
Reduce
generating
unit
SO
2
emissions
by
71%
compared
to
2005 levels
Reduce generating unit NOx emissions by 52% compared to
2005 levels
Trading of emissions credits may be allowed under the
proposed rule, but regional trading would be limited
52


EPA RULES: HAZARDOUS AIR
POLLUTANT (HAP) MACT
The Clean Air Act requires the EPA to develop an emission control program for
hazardous pollutants, including mercury and acid gases
The EPA is mandated pursuant to consent decree to draft a proposed Maximum
Achievable Control Technology (MACT) rule by March 16, 2011 and to finalize it
by November 16, 2011
MACT rule will apply to all existing and future coal and oil fired capacity
MACT requires achieving emissions levels as good as the average of the top
12% of existing sources
Credit Suisse estimates that for mercury emissions, this could require a 90% removal
rate
Affected plants would have 3 years to comply (i.e., 2014 or 2015), assuming no
case by case waivers or an exemption granted by the President
In
a
more
moderate
scenario,
the
EPA
could
propose
different
sets
of
standards
based on sub-categories, such as :
Size
Boiler pressure / temperature
Coal mix
No trading between plants
