Item 1.01: Amendment of a Material Definitive Agreement

On March 12, 2015, TECO Diversified, Inc. (“Seller”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of TECO Energy, Inc., entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of October 17, 2014, as amended (the “SPA”), with Cambrian Coal Corporation (“Buyer”). As previously reported, the SPA relates to the sale of all of the ownership interest in TECO Coal LLC (“TECO Coal”) to Cambrian Coal Corporation, and was subject to termination by either party if specified closing conditions, including the purchaser’s obtaining financing in order to pay a portion of the purchase price, were not met by March 13, 2015. The Amendment extends this date and provides that the SPA, as amended, is subject to termination by either party if the specified closing conditions are not met by April 24, 2015. The Amendment also provides that the Seller has the right to terminate the SPA if by April 17, 2015 at 5:00 p.m., Buyer has not delivered to Seller copies of financing commitment letters sufficient to complete the transaction.
