Reason for Amendment:
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A is being filed as Amendment
No. 1 to amend "Item 1. Financial Statements" of the Registrants'
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2002, filed on
May 13, 2002. In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 ("SFAS 142"),
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", which eliminates the amortization
of goodwill and other acquired intangible assets with indefinite economic useful
lives. SFAS 142 requires an annual impairment test of goodwill at the reporting
unit level. A reporting unit is a segment or one level below a segment (referred
to as a component). Intangible assets other than goodwill that are not subject
to amortization are also required to undergo an annual impairment test. PPL
Corporation and its subsidiaries adopted SFAS 142 on January 1, 2002, as reflected
in Note 10 to the financial statements filed in Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
March 31, 2002.
Note 10 to the financial statements for the quarter ended March
31, 2002 has been revised to include the reconciliation of reported earnings
of PPL Corporation and PPL Energy Supply, LLC for the twelve months ended December
31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, to earnings adjusted to exclude the amortization expense
related to goodwill and equity method goodwill that will no longer be recorded
in accordance with SFAS 142. PPL Corporation, PPL Energy Supply, LLC, PPL Electric
Utilities Corporation and PPL Montana, LLC were not affected by changes in amortization
periods for other intangible assets.
PPL Electric Utilities Corporation and PPL Montana, LLC had no goodwill at December
31, 2001, 2000 and 1999. The adoption of SFAS 142 would not have affected prior
period earnings of PPL Electric Utilities Corporation and PPL Montana, LLC.
No attempt has been made in this Form 10-Q/A to modify or update
other disclosures as presented in the original Form 10-Q.

Combined Notes to Condensed Consolidated

Terms and abbreviations appearing in Combined Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements are explained in the glossary.
-
Interim Financial Statements
(PPL, PPL Energy Supply, PPL Electric and PPL Montana)
Certain information in footnote disclosures, normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the U.S., has been condensed or omitted in this Form
10-Q under the rules and regulations of the SEC. These financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included
in each company's Annual Report to the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2001.
Certain amounts in the March 31, 2001 and December 31,
2001 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation
in the March 31, 2002 financial statements.
-
Segment and Related Information
(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
PPL's reportable segments are Supply, Delivery and International.
The Supply segment primarily consists of the domestic energy marketing,
domestic generation and domestic development operations of PPL Energy Supply.
The Delivery segment includes the regulated electric and gas delivery operations
of PPL Electric and PPL Gas Utilities. The International segment includes
PPL Global's responsibility for the acquisition, development, ownership
and operation of international energy projects. The majority of PPL Global's
international investments are located in the U.K., Chile, El Salvador and
Brazil.
PPL Energy Supply's reportable segments are Supply and
International. The International segment at the PPL Energy Supply level
is consistent with the International segment at the PPL level. The Supply
segment information reported at the PPL Energy Supply level will not be
consistent with the Supply segment information reported at the PPL level.
Additional Supply segment functions, including telecommunications, exist
at PPL that are outside of PPL Energy Supply. Furthermore, certain income
items, including PLR revenue and certain interest income, exist at the PPL
Energy Supply level, but are eliminated in consolidation at the PPL level.
Finally, certain expense items are fully allocated to the segments at the
PPL level only.
Segments include direct charges, as well as an allocation
of indirect corporate costs, for services provided by PPL Services. These
service costs include functions such as financial, legal, human resources
and information services.
See Note 8 for a discussion of the PLR contract between
PPL Electric and PPL EnergyPlus. PPL EnergyPlus' sales to PPL Electric,
to meet PPL Electric's PLR load, are included in the Supply segment of PPL
Energy Supply. PPL Electric's sales of this electricity to its PLR customers
are included in the Delivery segment of PPL. There are no intersegment revenues
for PPL or PPL Energy Supply.
Previously reported information has been reclassified to
conform to the current presentation. Changes from previous reports include
the allocation of interest expense to segments, and the reporting of PLR
revenues at PPL in the Delivery segment rather than in the Supply segment.
Financial data for the segments are as follows (millions of dollars):

Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliates - at Equity
(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
Investments in unconsolidated affiliates accounted for
under the equity method by PPL and PPL Energy Supply were $586 million at
both March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001. The most significant investment
was PPL Global's investment in WPDH Limited, which was $345 million at March
31, 2002 and $328 million at December 31, 2001. At March 31, 2002, PPL Global
had a 51% equity ownership interest in WPDH Limited, but shared joint control
with Mirant. Accordingly, PPL Global accounts for its investment in WPDH
Limited (and other investments where it has majority ownership but lacks
voting control) under the equity method of accounting.
Summarized below is information from the financial statements
of unconsolidated affiliates accounted for under the equity method, underlying
the amounts included in PPL and PPL Energy Supply's consolidated financial
statements (millions of dollars):

Earnings Per Share
(PPL)
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing "Net Income (Loss)"
on the Statement of Income by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. In the calculation of diluted EPS, weighted
average shares outstanding are increased for additional shares that would
be outstanding if potentially dilutive securities were converted to common
stock.
Potentially dilutive securities consist of stock options
granted under the incentive compensation plans, stock units representing
common stock granted under directors compensation programs and PEPS Units.
Preferred dividends are included in net income in the computation
of basic and diluted EPS.
The basic and diluted EPS calculations, and the reconciliation
of the shares used in the calculations, are shown below:

In May 2001, PPL issued 23 million PEPS Units that contain
a purchase contract component for PPL's common stock. The PEPS Units will
only be dilutive if the average price of PPL's common stock exceeds $65.03
for any period. Therefore, they were excluded from the diluted EPS calculations
for the three months ended March 31, 2002.
Stock options to purchase 879,000 PPL common shares for
the three months ended March 31, 2002 were not included in that period's
computation of diluted EPS because the exercise price of the options was
greater than the average market price of the common shares. Therefore, the
effect would have been antidilutive.

Credit Arrangements and Financing Activities
Credit Arrangements
(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
In order to enhance liquidity, and as a credit back-stop
to their respective commercial paper programs, PPL Electric maintains a
$400 million 364-day credit facility maturing in June 2002 and PPL Energy
Supply maintains two credit facilities: a $600 million 364-day credit facility
maturing in June 2002 and a $500 million three-year credit facility maturing
in June 2004. At March 31, 2002, no borrowings were outstanding under any
of these facilities. PPL Electric and PPL Energy Supply have the ability
to cause the lenders to issue letters of credit under these facilities.
At March 31, 2002, $1 million of letters of credit were outstanding under
PPL Electric's facility and $30 million of letters of credit were outstanding
under PPL Energy Supply's $500 million facility.
(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Montana)
PPL Montana maintains a $100 million three-year credit
facility maturing in November 2002 to meet its liquidity needs and to provide
for the issuance of up to $75 million in letters of credit. The maturity
date of this facility may be extended with the consent of the lenders. At
March 31, 2002, PPL Montana had outstanding borrowings of $30 million and
had outstanding letters of credit of $35 million under this facility. PPL
Montana's $150 million credit facility was terminated in April 2002.
(PPL and PPL Electric)
PPL and PPL Electric also maintain letter of credit agreements
for $4 million and $2 million, respectively, for the purpose of meeting
minor letter of credit needs. At March 31, 2002, $2 million in letters of
credit were outstanding for PPL and its subsidiaries. No letters of credit
were outstanding for PPL Electric at March 31, 2002 under its agreement.
(PPL, PPL Energy Supply, PPL Electric and PPL Montana)
The subsidiaries of PPL are separate legal entities. PPL's
subsidiaries are not liable for the debts of PPL. Accordingly, creditors
of PPL may not satisfy their debts from the assets of the subsidiaries absent
a specific contractual undertaking by a subsidiary to pay PPL's creditors
or as required by applicable law or regulation. Similarly, PPL is not liable
for the debts of its subsidiaries. Accordingly, creditors of PPL's subsidiaries
may not satisfy their debts from the assets of PPL absent a specific contractual
undertaking by PPL to pay the creditors of its subsidiaries or as required
by applicable law or regulation.
Similarly, the subsidiaries of PPL Energy Supply, PPL Electric
and PPL Montana are separate legal entities. These subsidiaries are not
liable for the debts of PPL Energy Supply, PPL Electric and PPL Montana.
Accordingly, creditors of PPL Energy Supply, PPL Electric and PPL Montana
may not satisfy their debts from the assets of their subsidiaries absent
a specific contractual undertaking by a subsidiary to pay the creditors
or as required by applicable law or regulation. In addition, PPL Energy
Supply, PPL Electric and PPL Montana are not liable for the debts of their
subsidiaries. Accordingly, creditors of these subsidiaries may not satisfy
their debts from the assets of PPL Energy Supply, PPL Electric or PPL Montana
absent a specific contractual undertaking by that parent to pay the creditors
of its subsidiaries or as required by applicable law or regulation.
Financing Activities
(PPL)
In February 2002, PPL Capital Funding repurchased $10 million,
par value, of its medium-term notes, 7.75% Series due 2005, at a market
value of $11 million.
During the first quarter of 2002, PPL issued $13 million
of common stock in small amounts on a periodic basis under its Structured
Equity Shelf Program. As of March 31, 2002, PPL had issued $29 million of
common stock under this program since its inception in December 2000.
In April 2002, PPL filed a universal shelf registration
statement with the SEC for the issuance of up to $750 million in various
securities. Subject to SEC registration of the securities and market conditions,
PPL currently plans to issue approximately $200 million of PPL common stock
during the second quarter of 2002 under this registration statement. PPL
expects to use the proceeds of this issuance to retire other securities
and to provide liquidity in support of its and its subsidiaries' general
corporate activities.
(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
At March 31, 2002 there was no commercial paper outstanding
for PPL Energy Supply. Some foreign subsidiaries of PPL Energy Supply had short-term,
non-recourse borrowings from banks of $82 million as of March 31, 2002.
(PPL and PPL Electric)
In March 2002, PPL Electric deposited $11 million with
its Mortgage Trustee for the purpose of retiring on May 1, 2002, all of
its outstanding First Mortgage Bonds, 8-1/2% Series due 2022, at par value,
through the maintenance and replacement fund provisions of the 1945 First
Mortgage Bond Indenture.
During the first quarter of 2002, PPL Transition Bond Company
made principal payments on bonds totaling $68 million.
At March 31, 2002, there was no commercial paper
or bank borrowings outstanding for PPL Electric.
In May 2002, pursuant to PPL Electric's instructions, the
property trustee of PPL Capital Trust redeemed, at par value, all of the
$100 million outstanding of the 8.20% Preferred Securities due 2027 that
was previously issued by PPL Capital Trust.

Acquisitions, Development and Divestitures
(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
Domestic Generation Project
In February 2002, PPL reached an agreement in principle
with the Village of Freeport, New York, pursuant to which they would together
construct a two-unit 88 MW combustion turbine power facility on Freeport
property, part of which property would be leased to PPL by Freeport. The
facility is projected to begin commercial operation in the summer of 2003.
PPL and Freeport would each own one unit. The cost of PPL's unit is estimated
to be approximately $50-$55 million. PPL also reached an agreement in principle
in April 2002 with the Long Island Power Authority (LIPA) regarding a joint
energy sales arrangement associated with the PPL unit for the first seven
years of operation. These transactions are subject to approval of the respective
governing boards, various regulatory approvals, and agreement on satisfactory
definitive documentation.
In December 2001, PPL Global made a decision to cancel
approximately 2,100 MW of previously planned generation development in Pennsylvania
and Washington state. These projects were in the early stage of development
and would have had an estimated capital cost of approximately $1.3 billion.
The charge for cancellation of these generation projects, which was primarily
due to cancellation fees under turbine purchase contracts, was approximately
$150 million, and was reported on the 2001 Statement of Income as "Cancellation
of generation projects," a component of "Other Charges." Through April 30,
2002, PPL Global made payments totaling $59 million related to the cancellation
fees. PPL Global is currently in negotiations to reduce certain of the cancellation
fees but cannot predict whether there will be any such reduction. Accordingly,
at this time, PPL Global believes that the original estimate of the
loss and the associated charges are still appropriate.

Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
(PPL, PPL Energy Supply, PPL Electric and PPL Montana)
PPL and its subsidiaries are involved in numerous legal
proceedings, claims and litigation in the ordinary course of business. PPL
and its subsidiaries cannot predict the ultimate outcome of such matters,
or whether such matters may result in material liabilities.
Wholesale Energy Commitments
(PPL, PPL Energy
Supply and PPL Montana)
As part of the purchase of generation assets from Montana
Power, PPL Montana agreed to supply electricity under two wholesale transition
service agreements with Montana Power to serve its retail load not served
by other providers or provided by Montana Power's remaining generation.
The first agreement expired in December 2001. As a result of NorthWestern
Energy's acquisition of Montana Power's electricity delivery business in
the first quarter of 2002, the second agreement is now between PPL Montana
and NorthWestern Energy. The second agreement requires PPL Montana to supply
NorthWestern Energy's actual remaining customer load. This agreement will
expire on the earlier of June 30, 2002 or when NorthWestern Energy's remaining
customer load is zero. In addition, as part of its purchase of the generation
assets from Montana Power, PPL Montana assumed a power purchase agreement
and another power sales agreement. In accordance with purchase accounting
guidelines, PPL Montana recorded a liability of $118 million as the estimated
fair value of these agreements at the acquisition date. The liability is
being amortized over the terms of the agreements as adjustments to "Wholesale
energy marketing and trading" revenues and "Energy purchases" on the Statement
of Income. The unamortized balance of the liability at March 31, 2002 was
$70 million and is included on the Balance Sheet in "Deferred Credits and
Other Noncurrent Liabilities - Other" for PPL and in "Wholesale energy
commitments" for PPL Energy Supply and PPL Montana.
Beginning July 1, 2002, PPL EnergyPlus will sell NorthWestern
Energy an aggregate of 450 MW of energy to be supplied by PPL Montana. Under
this five-year agreement, PPL EnergyPlus will supply 300 MW of around-the-clock
electricity and 150 MW of on-peak electricity.
Liability for Above Market NUG Contracts
(PPL,
PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
In 1998, PPL Electric recorded a loss accrual for above
market contracts with NUGs of $854 million, when its generation business
was deregulated. Effective January 1999, PPL Electric began reducing this
liability as an offset to "Energy purchases" on the Statement of Income.
This reduction is based on the estimated timing of the purchases from the
NUGs and projected market prices for this generation. The final existing
NUG contract expires in 2014. In connection with the corporate realignment,
effective July 1, 2000, the remaining balance of this liability was transferred
to PPL EnergyPlus.
In the first quarter of 2002, PPL Energy Supply paid approximately
$50 million to terminate an energy contract with one of the NUGs. The liability
associated with this NUG contract was $75 million. The excess of the liability
over the payment resulted in a $25 million credit to "Energy purchases."
At March 31, 2002, the remaining liability associated with these above market
NUG contracts was $485 million.
Commitments - Acquisitions and Development Activities
(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
PPL Global and its subsidiaries have committed additional
capital and extended loans to certain affiliates, joint ventures and partnerships
in which they have an interest. At March 31, 2002, PPL Global and its subsidiaries
had approximately $611 million of such commitments. The majority of these
commitments were for the purchase of LM-6000 turbine generators from General
Electric.
Sales to California Independent System Operator and
to Other Pacific Northwest Purchasers
(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and
PPL Montana)
Through its subsidiaries, PPL has made approximately $18
million of sales to the California ISO, for which PPL has not yet been paid
in full. Given the myriad of electricity supply problems presently faced
by the California electric utilities and the California ISO, PPL cannot
predict whether or when it will receive payment. As of March 31, 2002, PPL
has fully reserved for possible underrecoveries of payments for these sales.
Litigation arising out of the California electricity supply
situation has been filed at the FERC and in California courts against sellers
of energy to the California ISO. The plaintiffs and intervenors in these
proceedings allege abuses of market power, manipulation of market prices,
unfair trade practices and violations of state antitrust laws, among other
things, and seek price caps on wholesale sales in California and other western
power markets, refunds of excess profits allegedly earned on these sales
of energy, and other relief, including treble damages and attorneys' fees.
Certain of PPL's subsidiaries have intervened in the FERC proceedings in
order to protect their interests, but have not been named by any plaintiffs
in any of the court actions alleging abuses of market power, manipulation
of market prices, unfair trade practices and violations of state antitrust
laws. However, in April 2002, PPL Montana was named by a defendant in a
consolidated court proceeding, which combined into one master proceeding
several of the lawsuits alleging antitrust violations and unfair trade practices.
Specifically, one of the original generators being sued by the various plaintiffs
in the consolidated court proceeding filed a cross-complaint against 30
other generators and power marketers, including PPL Montana. This generator
denies that any unlawful, unfair or fraudulent conduct occurred or caused
any harm to the plaintiffs, and explains that the plaintiffs' claims are
completely barred by federal law. Nonetheless, this generator alleges that
it filed its complaint against the other generators and power marketers
in order to assist the court in resolving the proceeding and asserts that
if it is found liable, the other generators and power marketers including
PPL Montana caused, contributed to and/or participated in the plaintiffs'
alleged losses.
In addition, PPL Montana has been named as a defendant
in a declaratory judgment action initiated by the State of California to
prevent certain members of the California Power Exchange from seeking compensation
for the state's seizure of certain energy contracts. PPL Montana is a member
of the California Power Exchange, but it has no energy contracts with or
through the California Power Exchange and has not sought compensation in
connection with the state's seizure.
Attorneys general in several western states, including
California, have begun investigations related to the electricity supply
situation in California and other western states. The FERC has determined
that all sellers of energy in the California markets, including PPL Montana,
should be subject to refund liability for the period beginning October 2,
2000 through June 20, 2001 and has initiated an evidentiary hearing concerning
refund amounts. The FERC also is considering whether to order refunds for
sales made in the Pacific Northwest, including sales made by PPL Montana.
The FERC Administrative Law Judge assigned to this proceeding has recommended
that no refunds be ordered for sales into the Pacific Northwest. The FERC
presently is considering this recommendation.
PPL cannot predict whether, or the extent to which, any
of its subsidiaries will be the target of any governmental investigation
or named in other lawsuits or refund proceedings, the outcome of any such
lawsuits or proceedings or whether the ultimate impact on PPL of the electricity
supply situation in California and other western states will be material.
MPSC Order
(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Montana)
In June 2001, the MPSC issued an order (MPSC Order) in
which it found that Montana Power must continue to provide electric service
to its customers at tariffed rates until its transition plan under the Montana
Electricity Utility Industry Restructuring and Customer Choice Act is finally
approved, and that purchasers of generating assets from Montana Power must
provide electricity to meet Montana Power's full load requirements at prices
to Montana Power that reflect costs calculated as if the generating assets
had not been sold. PPL Montana purchased Montana Power's interests in two
coal-fired plants and 11 hydroelectric units in 1999, and NorthWestern Energy
purchased Montana Power's electricity delivery business in the first quarter
of 2002.
In July 2001, PPL Montana filed a complaint against the
MPSC with the U.S. District Court in Helena, Montana, challenging the MPSC
Order. In its complaint, PPL Montana asserted, among other things, that
the Federal Power Act preempts states from exercising regulatory authority
over the sale of electricity in wholesale markets, and requested the court
to declare the MPSC action preempted, unconstitutional and void. In addition,
the complaint requested that the MPSC be enjoined from seeking to exercise
any authority, control or regulation of wholesale sales from PPL Montana's
generating assets. In March 2002, the District Court dismissed PPL Montana's
lawsuit on procedural grounds, ruling that the Eleventh Amendment to the
U.S. Constitution prevented PPL Montana from bringing the action in federal
court. The District Court noted that the action could be filed in a state
court in Montana. PPL Montana has appealed the District Court's ruling to
the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
At this time, PPL Montana cannot predict the outcome of
the proceedings related to the MPSC Order, what actions the MPSC, the Montana
Legislature or any other governmental authority may take on these or related
matters, or the ultimate impact on PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Montana
of any of these matters.
Montana Power Shareholders' Litigation
(PPL,
PPL Energy Supply and PPL Montana)
In August 2001, a purported class-action lawsuit was filed
by a group of shareholders of Montana Power against Montana Power, the directors
of Montana Power, certain unnamed advisors and consultants of Montana Power
and PPL Montana. The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that Montana
Power was required to, and did not, obtain shareholder approval of the sale
of Montana Power's generation assets to PPL Montana in 1999. Although most
of the claims in the complaint are against Montana Power, its board of directors,
and its consultants and advisors, two claims are asserted against PPL Montana.
In the first claim, plaintiffs seek a declaration that because Montana Power
shareholders did not vote on the 1999 sale of generating assets to PPL Montana,
that sale "was null and void ab initio." The second claim alleges that PPL
Montana was privy to and participated in a strategy whereby Montana Power
would sell its generation assets to PPL Montana without first obtaining
Montana Power shareholder approval, and that PPL Montana has made net profits
in excess of $100 million as the result of this alleged illegal sale. In
the second claim, plaintiffs request that the court impose a "resulting
and/or constructive trust" on both the generation assets themselves and
all profits, plus interest on the amounts subject to the trust. PPL Montana
cannot predict the outcome of this matter.
Employee Litigation
(PPL Energy Supply and PPL
Montana)
In April 2000, three employees at PPL Montana's Colstrip
facility were burned when an equipment fault in Colstrip Unit 1 caused electrical
arcing. In May 2000, the injured employees and their spouses filed litigation
for their injuries in Montana district court against Montana Power. PPL
Montana was subsequently named as a party defendant to the litigation. In
April 2002, PPL Montana filed a pleading, naming Montana Power, seeking
indemnification for any damages assessed against PPL Montana. A trial has
been scheduled for June 2002. At this time, PPL Montana cannot predict the
ultimate outcome of this matter.
PJM Market Monitor Report
(PPL, PPL Energy Supply
and PPL Electric)
In November 2001, the PJM Market Monitor publicly released
a report prepared for the PUC entitled "Capacity Market Questions" relating
to the pricing of installed capacity in the PJM daily market during the
first quarter of 2001. The report concludes that PPL EnergyPlus (identified
in the report as "Entity 1") was able to exercise market power to raise
the market-clearing price above the competitive level during that period.
PPL EnergyPlus does not agree with the Market Monitor's conclusions that
it exercised market power; in addition, the Market Monitor acknowledged
in his report that PJM's standards and rules did not prohibit PPL EnergyPlus'
conduct. In November 2001, the PUC issued an Investigation Order directing
its Law Bureau to conduct an investigation into the PJM capacity market
and the allegations in the Market Monitor's report. In January 2002, PPL
filed comments as requested by the Investigation Order. The Order does not
suggest what, if any, action the PUC may take as a result of the investigation,
other than considering possible changes to its competitive safeguards. While
PPL EnergyPlus and PPL Electric have filed comments with the PUC as part
of the investigation, they have taken the position that the PUC does not
have jurisdiction to regulate the PJM capacity markets as those markets
are for wholesale electricity transactions and, accordingly, are within
the exclusive jurisdiction of the FERC. In addition, PPL EnergyPlus and
PPL Electric believe that PPL EnergyPlus' actions under review were at all
times lawful and consistent with the rules of the market. At this time,
neither PPL EnergyPlus nor PPL Electric can predict the ultimate outcome
of the proceedings related to the Market Monitor report or what action the
PUC or other agencies or courts may take in this regard.
FERC Market-based Rates
(PPL and PPL Energy
Supply)
In December 1998, the FERC issued an order authorizing
PPL EnergyPlus to make wholesale sales of electric power and related products
at market-based rates. In that order, the FERC directed PPL EnergyPlus to
file an updated market analysis within three years of the date of the order,
and every three years thereafter. PPL EnergyPlus filed its initial updated
market analysis in December 2001. Several parties thereafter filed interventions
and protests requesting that, in light of the PJM Market Monitor's report
described above, PPL EnergyPlus be required to provide additional information
demonstrating that it has met the FERC's market power tests necessary for
PPL EnergyPlus to continue its market-based rate authority. PPL EnergyPlus
has responded that the FERC does not require the economic test suggested
by the intervenors and that, in any event, it would meet such economic test
if required by the FERC. PPL EnergyPlus cannot predict the outcome of this
matter.

Energy Supply and PPL Montana)
In July 2001, PPL Montana filed an action in state court
and a responsive pleading in federal court, both related to a breach of
contract by Energy West Resources, Inc. (Energy West), a Great Falls, Montana-based
energy aggregator. PPL Montana is seeking a judgment that Energy West violated
the terms of the contract under which it supplies energy to Energy West
and should pay damages of at least $7.5 million. All litigation in this
matter has been consolidated in the U. S. District Court for the District
of Montana, Great Falls Division, and is proceeding in that forum. PPL Montana
cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these proceedings.
Proposed Montana Hydroelectric Initiative
(PPL,
PPL Energy Supply and PPL Montana)
In January 2002, the Montana Secretary of State certified,
in accordance with applicable statutes, that it had approved the form of
a proposed Montana "Hydroelectric Security Act" initiative. The
proposed initiative may be placed on the November 2002 statewide ballot
if sufficient signatures are obtained prior to June 21, 2002. Among the
stated purposes of the proposed initiative is to create an elected Montana
public power commission to determine whether purchasing hydroelectric dams
in Montana is in the public interest. Such a commission could decide to
acquire PPL Montana's hydroelectric dams either pursuant to a negotiated
purchase or an acquisition at fair market value through the power of condemnation.
At this time, PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Montana cannot predict whether
the proposed initiative will garner enough signatures for placement on the
November 2002 statewide ballot, whether there will be a successful legal
challenge to the initiative, whether it would pass if on the ballot or what
impact, if any, the measure might ultimately have upon PPL Montana or its
hydroelectric operations. PPL Montana has declared its opposition to, and
intends to vigorously oppose, the initiative.
Montana Hydroelectric License Contingencies
(PPL
Energy Supply and PPL Montana)
PPL Montana has 11 hydroelectric facilities and one storage
reservoir licensed by the FERC pursuant to the Federal Power Act under long-term
licenses which expire on varying dates from 2009 through 2040. Pursuant
to Section 8(e) of the Federal Power Act, the FERC approved the transfer
from Montana Power of all pertinent licenses, and any amendments thereto,
for the ownership and operation of these facilities purchased by PPL Montana.
The Kerr Dam Project license was jointly issued by the
FERC to Montana Power and the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes of
the Flathead Reservation in 1985, and required Montana Power to hold and
operate the project for 30 years. The license required Montana Power, and
subsequently PPL Montana as a result of the purchase of the Kerr Dam from
Montana Power, to continue to implement a plan to mitigate the impact of
the Kerr Dam on fish, wildlife and the habitat. Such implementation will
require payments totaling approximately $6 million between 2002 to 2020.
Colstrip Transmission System
(PPL, PPL Energy
Supply and PPL Montana)
PPL Global was party to separate APAs with Portland General
Electric Company (PGE) and Puget Sound Energy, Inc. (PSE) to purchase their
respective interests in the Colstrip Units and certain related transmission
assets and rights. The interested parties mutually agreed to terminate the
APAs.
The Montana Power APA, previously assigned to PPL Montana
by PPL Global, includes a provision concerning the purchase by PPL Montana
of a portion of NorthWestern Energy's interest in the 500-kilovolt Colstrip Transmission
System (CTS) for $97 million. PPL Montana is currently in discussions with
NorthWestern Energy regarding the purchase of the CTS.
Nuclear Insurance
(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
PPL Susquehanna is a member of certain insurance programs
which provide coverage for property damage to members' nuclear generating
stations. Facilities at the Susquehanna station are insured against property
damage losses up to $2.75 billion under these programs. PPL Susquehanna
is also a member of an insurance program which provides insurance coverage
for the cost of replacement power during prolonged outages of nuclear units
caused by certain specified conditions. Under the property and replacement
power insurance programs, PPL Susquehanna could be assessed retroactive
premiums in the event of the insurers' adverse loss experience. Effective
April 1, 2002, this maximum assessment increased from $20 million to $40
million, to increase the insurer's capacity to cover catastrophic losses.
PPL Susquehanna's public liability for claims resulting
from a nuclear incident at the Susquehanna station is limited to about $9.5
billion under provisions of The Price Anderson Amendments Act of 1988. PPL
Susquehanna is protected against this liability by a combination of commercial
insurance and an industry assessment program. In the event of a nuclear
incident at any of the reactors covered by The Price Anderson Amendments
Act of 1988, PPL Susquehanna could be assessed up to $176 million per incident,
payable at $20 million per year.
Environmental Matters
Air
(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Montana)
The Clean Air Act deals, in part, with acid rain, attainment
of federal ambient ozone standards and toxic air emissions in the U.S. PPL's
subsidiaries are in substantial compliance with the Clean Air Act.
The Bush administration and certain members of Congress
have made proposals regarding possible amendments to the Clean Air Act.
These amendments could require significant further reductions in NO
x
,
SO
2
and mercury and could possibly require measures to limit
CO
2
.
The Pennsylvania DEP has finalized regulations requiring
further seasonal (May-June) NO
x
reductions to 80% from 1990 levels
starting in 2003. These further reductions are based on the requirements
of the Northeast Ozone Transport Region Memorandum of Understanding and
two EPA ambient ozone initiatives: the September 1998 EPA State Implementation
Plan (SIP) call (i.e., EPA's requirement for states to revise their SIPs)
issued under Section 110 of the Clean Air Act, requiring reductions from
22 eastern states, including Pennsylvania; and the EPA's approval of petitions
filed by Northeastern states, requiring reductions from sources in 12 Northeastern
states and Washington D.C., including PPL sources. The EPA's SIP-call was
substantially upheld by the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals on challenge.
Although the Court extended the implementation deadline to May 2004, the
Pennsylvania DEP has not changed its rules accordingly. PPL expects to achieve
the 2003 NO
x
reductions with the recent installation of SCR technology
on the Montour units and the possible use of SCR or SNCR technology on a
Brunner Island unit.
The EPA has also developed new standards for ambient levels
of ozone and fine particulates in the U.S. These standards have been upheld
following court challenges. The new particulates standard may require further
reductions in SO
2
and year-round NO
x
reductions commencing
in 2010-2012 at SIP-call levels in Pennsylvania for certain PPL subsidiaries,
and at slightly less stringent levels in Montana. The revised ozone standard
is not expected to have a material effect on facilities of PPL subsidiaries.
Under the Clean Air Act, the EPA has been studying the
health effects of hazardous air emissions from power plants and other sources
in order to determine what emissions should be regulated, and has determined
that mercury emissions must be regulated. In this regard, the EPA is expected
to develop regulations by 2004.
In 1999, the EPA initiated enforcement actions against
several utilities, asserting that older, coal-fired power plants operated
by those utilities have, over the years, been modified in ways that subject
them to more stringent "New Source" requirements under the Clean Air Act.
The EPA has since issued notices of violation and commenced enforcement
activities against other utilities. Although the EPA has threatened to continue
expanding its enforcement actions, the future direction of the "New Source"
requirements is presently unclear. Therefore, at this time, PPL is unable
to predict whether such EPA enforcement actions will be brought with respect
to any of its affiliates' plants. However, the EPA regional offices that
regulate plants in Pennsylvania (Region III) and Montana (Region VIII) have
indicated an intention to issue information requests to all utilities in
their jurisdiction, and the Region VIII office has issued such a request
to PPL Montana's Corette plant. PPL and its subsidiaries have responded
to the information request. PPL cannot presently predict what, if any, action
the EPA might take in this regard. Should the EPA or any state initiate
one or more enforcement actions against PPL or its subsidiaries, compliance
with any such enforcement actions could result in additional capital and
operating expenses in amounts which are not now determinable, but which
could be significant.
The EPA is also proposing to revise its regulations in
a way that will require power plants to meet "New Source" performance standards
and/or undergo "New Source" review for many maintenance and repair activities
that are currently exempt.
The New Jersey DEP and some New Jersey residents have raised
environmental concerns with respect to the Martins Creek Plant, particularly
with respect to SO
2
emissions. PPL Martins Creek is discussing
these concerns with the New Jersey DEP. The cost of addressing New Jersey's
SO
2
concerns and opacity issues is not now determinable but
could be significant. In addition, in December 2001, a PPL Global subsidiary
entered into a synthetic lease financing transaction for the development,
construction and operation of its Lower Mt. Bethel combined cycle generating
facility. The Air Quality Plan Approval issued by the Pennsylvania DEP for
construction of the Lower Mt. Bethel facility has been appealed by the New
Jersey DEP. The PPL Global subsidiary has joined with the Pennsylvania DEP
in opposing this appeal.
Water/Waste
(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Montana)
The final NPDES permit for the Montour plant contains stringent
limits for iron discharges. The results of a toxic reduction study show
that additional water treatment facilities or operational changes are needed
at this station. A plan for these changes was submitted and has been approved
by the Pennsylvania DEP. PPL Energy Supply estimates that the cost of the
treatment facilities will be under $3 million.
A final NPDES permit has been issued to the Brunner Island
generating plant. The permit contains a provision requiring further studies
on the thermal impact of the cooling water discharge from the plant. Depending
on the outcome of these studies, the plant could be subject to capital and
operating costs that are not now determinable, but which could be significant.
The EPA has significantly tightened the water quality standard
for arsenic. The lowered standard may require several PPL subsidiaries to
further treat wastewater and/or take abatement action at their power plants,
the cost of which is not now determinable, but which could be significant.
The EPA recently finalized requirements for new or modified
water intake structures. These requirements will affect where generating
facilities are built, will establish intake design standards, and could
lead to requirements for cooling towers at new and modified power plants.
Another new rule, expected to be finalized in 2003, will address existing
structures. Each of these rules could impose significant operating costs
on PPL subsidiaries, which are not now determinable, but which could be
significant.
Superfund and Other Remediation
(PPL and PPL Electric)
In 1995, PPL Electric entered into a consent order with
the Pennsylvania DEP to address a number of sites where it may be liable
for remediation. This may include potential PCB contamination at certain
PPL Electric substations and pole sites; potential contamination at a number
of coal gas manufacturing facilities formerly owned or operated by PPL Electric;
and oil or other contamination which may exist at some of PPL Electric's
former generating facilities. In connection with the July 1, 2000 corporate
realignment, PPL Electric's generation facilities were transferred to subsidiaries
of PPL Generation. As of March 31, 2002, work has been completed on over
80% of the sites included in the consent order.
In 1996, PPL Gas Utilities entered into a similar consent
order with the Pennsylvania DEP to address a number of sites where subsidiaries
of PPL Gas Utilities may be liable for remediation. The sites primarily
include former coal gas manufacturing facilities. Subsidiaries of PPL Gas
Utilities are also investigating the potential for any mercury contamination
from gas meters and regulators. Accordingly, PPL Gas Utilities and Pennsylvania
DEP have agreed to add 72 meter/regulation sites to the consent order and
had addressed five of these sites by March 31, 2002.
At March 31, 2002, PPL Electric and PPL Gas Utilities had
accrued approximately $5 million and $11 million, representing the estimated
amounts they will have to spend for site remediation, including those sites
covered by each company's consent orders mentioned above.
(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Montana)
In conjunction with its 1999 sale of generating assets
to PPL Montana, Montana Power prepared a Phase I and Phase II Environmental
Site Assessment. The assessment identifies approximately $7 million of future
capital expenditures through the year 2020 related to various groundwater
remediation issues. Additional capital expenditures could be required in
amounts which are not now determinable, but which could be significant.
In 1999, the Montana Supreme Court held in favor of several
citizens' groups that the right to a clean and healthful environment is
a fundamental right guaranteed by the Montana Constitution. The court's
ruling could result in significantly more stringent environmental laws and
regulations, as well as an increase in citizens' suits under Montana's environmental
laws. The effect on PPL Montana of any such changes in laws or regulations
or any such increase in legal actions is not currently determinable, but
it could be significant.
Under the Montana Power APA, PPL Montana is indemnified
by Montana Power for any pre-acquisition environmental liabilities. However,
this indemnification is conditioned on certain circumstances and subject to
certain limitatons set forth in the Montana Power APA, including circumstances
under which PPL Montana and Montana Power would share in certain costs.
As a result of the acquisition by NorthWestern
Energy of Montana Power's electricity delivery business, PPL Montana may
need to pursue any such indemnification claims against NorthWestern Energy.
Future cleanup or remediation work at sites currently under
review, or at sites not currently identified, may result in material additional
operating costs for PPL subsidiaries that cannot be estimated at this time.
General
(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
Certain of PPL's affiliates have electric distribution
operations in the U.K. and Latin America. PPL believes that these operations
are in compliance with all applicable laws and government regulations to
protect the environment. PPL is not aware of any material administrative
proceeding against these companies with respect to any environmental matter.
(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Montana)
Due to the environmental issues discussed above or other
environmental matters, PPL subsidiaries may be required to modify, replace
or cease operating certain facilities to comply with statutes, regulations
and actions by regulatory bodies or courts. In this regard, PPL subsidiaries
also may incur capital expenditures, operating expenses and other costs
in amounts which are not now determinable, but which could be significant.
Credit Support
(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
PPL and PPL Energy Supply provide certain guarantees for
their subsidiaries. PPL has guaranteed fully and unconditionally all of the
debt of its wholly-owned financing subsidiary, PPL Capital Funding,
which at March 31, 2002, consisted of $1.3 billion of medium-term notes.
At March 31, 2002, PPL has guaranteed certain obligations
under power purchase and sales agreements of PPL EnergyPlus ($61 million)
and certain obligations of other subsidiaries ($127 million). As of March
31, 2002, PPL Energy Supply had guaranteed certain obligations under power
purchase and sales agreements of PPL EnergyPlus ($2 million) and certain
obligations of other subsidiaries ($671 million).
(PPL Electric)
At March 31, 2002, PPL Electric provided a guarantee in
the amount of $7 million in support of Safe Harbor Water Power Corporation,
in which PPL Electric had an ownership interest prior to the corporate realignment.
PPL Holtwood now has this ownership interest.

Related Party Transactions
PLR Contract
(PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
PPL Electric has power sales agreements with PPL EnergyPlus,
effective January 1, 2002, to supply all of PPL Electric's PLR load through
2009. Under these contracts, PPL EnergyPlus will provide electricity at
the pre-determined capped prices that PPL Electric is authorized to charge
its PLR customers. For the three months ended March 31, 2002, these purchases
totaled $369 million, including nuclear decommissioning recovery and amortization
of an up-front contract payment. For the three months ended March 31, 2001,
these purchases totaled $334 million, including nuclear decommissioning
recovery, under the previous PLR contract. These purchases are included
in the Statement of Income as "Energy purchases" by PPL Electric and as
"Wholesale energy marketing and trading" revenues by PPL Energy Supply.
Under the current PLR contracts, PPL Electric is required
to make performance assurance deposits with PPL EnergyPlus when market prices
exceed the contract collateral threshold. In January 2002, PPL Electric
was required to tender a $56 million performance assurance deposit to PPL
EnergyPlus. This payment is shown on the Balance Sheets as "Collateral
on PLR energy supply to/from affiliate," a current asset of PPL Electric
and a current liability of PPL Energy Supply. PPL Electric will earn interest
equal to the three-month LIBOR plus 3% on this deposit.
NUG Purchases
(PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
PPL Electric has a reciprocal contract with PPL EnergyPlus
to sell electricity purchased under contracts with NUGs. PPL Electric purchases
electricity from the NUGs at contractual rates and then sells the electricity
at the same price to PPL EnergyPlus. For the three months ended March 31,
2002 and 2001, these NUG purchases totaled $43 million and $45 million,
and are included in the Statement of Income as "Wholesale electric" revenues
by PPL Electric, and as "Energy purchases" by PPL Energy Supply.
Brokering and Contract Management Agreement
(PPL
Montana)
Under a brokering and contract management agreement between
PPL Montana and PPL EnergyPlus, PPL Montana paid PPL EnergyPlus $2 million
and $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001.
Montana Retail Supply
(PPL Montana)
PPL Montana has a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with
PPL EnergyPlus regarding the supply of energy to satisfy PPL EnergyPlus'
obligations under its retail contracts, which expires on December 31, 2002.
Under the MOU, energy sales to PPL EnergyPlus for the three months ended
March 31, 2002 and 2001 were $10 million and $32 million and are included
in "Wholesale energy marketing and trading" revenues on the Statement
of Income.
Allocations of Corporate Service Costs
(PPL Energy
Supply, PPL Electric and PPL Montana)
Corporate functions such as financial, legal, human resources
and information services were transferred to PPL Services in the corporate
realignment. PPL Services bills the respective PPL subsidiaries for the
cost of such services when they can be specifically identified. The cost
of these services that is not directly charged to PPL subsidiaries is allocated
to certain of the subsidiaries based on the relative capital invested by
PPL in these subsidiaries. During the three months ended March 31, PPL Services
allocated the following charges to PPL Energy Supply, PPL Electric and PPL
Montana (in millions):

Intercompany Borrowings
(PPL Energy Supply)
PPL, through PPL Capital Funding and other subsidiaries,
provides certain funding and credit support for PPL Energy Supply and its
subsidiaries. Such funding includes loans that are due on demand with interest
charged at a rate based on PPL Capital Funding's short-term borrowing rate.
PPL Energy Supply had no notes payable to affiliated companies at March
31, 2002 or December 31, 2001 and consequently had no intercompany interest
in the first quarter of 2002. Intercompany interest, including capitalized
interest, was $27 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001.
PPL Energy Supply, through its financing subsidiary PPL
Investment Corporation, had notes receivable from affiliates of PPL totaling
$539 million and $395 million at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001. Interest
earned on loans to affiliated companies was $5 million and $8 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001.
(PPL Electric)
In December 2001, PPL Electric made two loans from excess
cash to PPL Energy Funding in the aggregate principal amount of $350 million.
One loan was a demand promissory note in the original principal amount of
$150 million requiring interest to be paid monthly at an annual interest
rate of 4.0%. The other loan was a one-year term promissory note in the
original principal amount of $200 million requiring interest to be paid
monthly at an annual interest rate of 6.5%. The outstanding balance of these
loans at March 31, 2002 was $75 million. Intercompany interest income was
$4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Montana)
Fair Value Hedges
PPL Energy Supply and PPL Montana enter into financial
or physical contracts to hedge a portion of the fair value of firm commitments
of forward electricity sales. Additionally, PPL enters into financial contracts
to hedge fluctuations in the market value of existing debt issuances. These
contracts range in maturity through 2006. For the three months ended March
31, 2002 and 2001, PPL did not recognize any gains or losses from the ineffective
portion of fair value hedges. For the three months ended March 31, 2002,
PPL Energy Supply recognized an immaterial amount from firm commitments
that no longer qualified as fair value hedges.
Cash Flow Hedges
PPL Energy Supply and PPL Montana enter into financial
and physical contracts, including forwards, futures and swaps, to hedge
the price risk associated with electric, gas and oil commodities. Additionally,
PPL enters into financial interest rate swap contracts to hedge interest
expense associated with both existing and anticipated debt issuances. These
contracts and swaps range in maturity through 2005. PPL also enters into
foreign currency forward contracts to hedge exchange rates associated with
firm commitments denominated in foreign currencies and to hedge the net
investment of foreign operations. These forward contracts, excluding those
forecasted transactions related to the payment of variable interest on existing
financial instruments, range in maturity through 2003.
At March 31, 2002, PPL's unrealized gain on qualifying
derivatives included in accumulated other comprehensive income was $12 million,
an $11 million decrease from the December 31, 2001 unrealized gain on qualifying
derivatives of $23 million. Also, at March 31, 2002, PPL Energy Supply's
unrealized gain on qualifying derivatives included in accumulated other
comprehensive income was $33 million, a $13 million decrease from the December
31, 2001 unrealized gain on qualifying derivatives of $46 million. Finally
at March 31, 2002, PPL Montana's unrealized gain on qualifying derivatives
included in accumulated other comprehensive income was $19 million, a $14
million decrease from the December 31, 2001 unrealized gain on qualifying
derivatives of $33 million.
The after-tax impact on the financial statements of PPL
and PPL Energy Supply resulting from cash flow hedge ineffectiveness for
the three months ended March 31, 2002 was a loss of $2 million and was insignificant
for the three months ended March 31, 2001.
As a result of an unplanned outage in 2001 and changes
in economic conditions, certain cash flow hedges were discontinued, resulting
in the following financial statement impact (millions of dollars):

As of March 31, 2002, the deferred net gain, after-tax,
on derivative instruments in accumulated other comprehensive income expected
to be reclassified into earnings during the next twelve months (excluding
derivative activities of equity investments) was $1 million, $4 million,
and $4 million for PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Montana, respectively.
Implementation Issues
In December 2001, the FASB revised guidance on DIG Issue
C16: "Scope Exceptions: Applying the Normal Purchases and Normal Sales Exception
to Contracts that Combine a Forward Contract and a Purchased Option Contract."
Issue C16 provides additional guidance on the classification and application
of SFAS 133 relating to purchases and sales of electricity utilizing forward
contracts and options, as well as the eligibility of fuel contracts for
the normal purchases and normal sales exception. The revised guidance is
effective April 1, 2002. PPL has determined that there will be no financial
statement impact of the revised guidance on fuel contracts classified as
normal.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets," which eliminates the amortization of goodwill and other
acquired intangible assets with indefinite economic useful lives. SFAS 142
requires an annual impairment test of goodwill at the reporting unit level.
A reporting unit is a segment or one level below a segment (referred to
as a component). Intangible assets other than goodwill that are not subject
to amortization are also required to undergo an annual impairment test.
PPL and its subsidiaries adopted SFAS 142 on January 1, 2002. The following
information is disclosed in accordance with SFAS 142.

The Delivery segment is not
part of PPL Energy Supply.

Goodwill is included in "Noncurrent Assets - Other"
on the Balance Sheet.
The reporting units of the Supply, Delivery and International
segments completed the transition impairment test in the first quarter of
2002. A transition goodwill impairment loss of $150 million was recognized
in the Latin American reporting unit within the International segment, and
is reported as a "Cumulative Effect of a Change in Accounting Principle"
on the Statement of Income. The fair value of the reporting unit was estimated
using the expected present value of future cash flows.
The following table reconciles reported earnings from prior
periods to earnings adjusted to exclude the amortization expense related
to goodwill and equity method goodwill that will no longer be recorded in
accordance with SFAS 142.

New Accounting Standards
(PPL, PPL Energy Supply, PPL Electric and PPL Montana
)
SFAS 144
In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144, "Accounting for
the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," that replaces SFAS 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets
to Be Disposed Of." For long-lived assets to be held and used, SFAS 144
retains the requirements of SFAS 121 to (a) recognize an impairment loss
only if the carrying amount is not recoverable from undiscounted cash flows
and (b) measure an impairment loss as the difference between the carrying
amount and fair value of the asset. For long-lived assets to be disposed
of, SFAS 144 establishes a single accounting model based on the framework
established in SFAS 121. The accounting model for long-lived assets to be
disposed of by sale applies to all long-lived assets, including discontinued
operations, and replaces the provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting
the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment
of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events
and Transactions,"
for the disposal of segments of a business. SFAS
144 also broadens the reporting of discontinued operations. PPL and its
subsidiaries adopted SFAS 144 on January 1, 2002, with no material impact
on the financial statements.
SFAS 145
In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 145, "Rescission of
FASB Statement 4, 44, and 64." The most relevant provision of SFAS 145 is
the rescission of SFAS 4, which required all gains and losses from extinguishment
of debt to be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary
item, net of related income tax effect. As a result of the rescission, the
criteria in APB Opinion No. 30 will now be used to classify those gains
and losses. The provisions of SFAS 145 related to the rescission of SFAS
4 shall be applied in fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002, with early
application encouraged. The adoption of SFAS 145 will not have a material
impact on PPL or its subsidiaries.

Write-down of International Energy Projects
(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
At December 31, 2001, PPL Global estimated that the long-term
viability of its CEMAR investment was jeopardized and that there was minimal
probability of positive future cash flows. See PPL's Note 22 and PPL Energy
Supply's Note 21 to the Financial Statements included in each company's Annual
Report to the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 for additional
information. At that time, PPL Global recorded an impairment loss in the carrying
value of its net assets in CEMAR, an increase in its valuation allowance in
deferred tax assets, and a credit to "Minority Interest" on the Statement of
Income. The net result of these transactions was a $217 million charge to earnings.
At March 31, 2002, PPL Global recorded a further impairment
loss in the carrying value of its net assets in CEMAR of approximately $4 million,
after-tax. The pre-tax charge was $6 million, and was recorded as a charge to
"Write-down of international energy projects" on the Statement of Income. PPL
Global's remaining portion of its CEMAR investment, primarily related to its
foreign currency translation adjustments (CTA) balance of $94 million, was not
written-off as of March 31, 2002, because accounting guidance prohibits the
inclusion of CTA in an impairment calculation where the assets are not held
for disposal. PPL is working with CEMAR's creditors and governmental authorities
in Brazil on a plan that could result in returning the company to financial
stability. That plan includes a rate-increase request that is now being reviewed
by regulators, and PPL expects that the process for the rate-increase request
will reach conclusion in the third quarter of 2002. Because PPL has not exhausted
all available avenues, including the pending rate request, to maximize the value
of CEMAR, it has not yet made a decision to exit the investment. Should a decision
be made to exit the investment, PPL would again assess impairment of the investment
and would, most likely, record an additional impairment for the CTA balance,
reduced by any operating losses recorded through the date of the impairment.
As a result of its financial difficulties, CEMAR has failed
to pay certain of its creditors for obligations when due. In addition, CEMAR
is not in compliance with the financial covenants in its 150 million Brazilian
reals (approximately $56 million) debenture indenture for the year ended December
31, 2001. Consequently, CEMAR has notified the indenture agent, and in accordance
with the indenture, the agent is expected to call a meeting of the holders of
the debentures to hold a vote regarding the acceleration of the debentures.
Unless three-fourths of the holders vote against acceleration, the agent will
be obligated under the indenture to accelerate the debentures.
