NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION



Allegheny Energy, Inc. (AE) operates primarily through directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries (together with AE, Allegheny). Alleghenys two business segments are the Delivery and Services segment and the
Generation and Marketing segment.



The Delivery and Services
segment primarily consists of AEs regulated utility subsidiaries. These subsidiaries include Monongahela Power Company (Monongahela), excluding its generation operations, The Potomac Edison Company (Potomac Edison) and
West Penn Power Company (West Penn) (collectively, the Distribution Companies). The Distribution Companies primarily operate electric transmission and distribution (T&D) systems in Pennsylvania, West Virginia,
Maryland, Virginia and Ohio. The Distribution Companies are subject to federal and state regulation. The Delivery and Services segment also includes Allegheny Ventures, Inc. (Allegheny Ventures).



The Generation and Marketing segment primarily consists of AEs
subsidiaries, Allegheny Energy Supply Company, LLC (AE Supply), Allegheny Generating Company (AGC) and Monongahelas generation operations. AE Supply owns, operates and controls electric generation capacity and supplies
and trades energy and energy-related commodities. AGC owns and sells generation capacity to AE Supply and Monongahela, which own approximately 77% and 23% of AGC, respectively. The Generation and Marketing segment is subject to federal regulation,
but is not subject to state regulation of rates, except that Monongahelas generation is subject to state regulation in West Virginia.



Allegheny Energy Service Corporation (AESC) is a wholly owned subsidiary of AE that employs all of the people who are employed by Allegheny.
On September 19, 2005, AE entered into a Professional Services Agreement (the PSA) with Electronic Data Systems Corporation (EDS) and EDS Information Services, L.L.C. (EIS, together with EDS, the
Service Provider). On November 1, 2005, the Service Provider assumed responsibility for many of Alleghenys information technology functions and the coordination and installation of an enterprise resource planning system.
Unless extended by AE, the PSA will expire on December 31, 2012. Most of the AESC employees performing Alleghenys information technology functions were offered employment with EDS.



AE and AE Supply are both holding companies registered under the Public
Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 (PUHCA). Allegheny is subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) under PUHCA. Currently, PUHCA imposes financial and operational conditions and restrictions
on many aspects of Alleghenys business. For example, PUHCA requires pre-approval from the SEC for, among other things, the issuance of debt or equity securities and for the sale or acquisition of utility assets. On August 8, 2005, the
Energy Policy Act of 2005 (the Energy Policy Act) was enacted. The Energy Policy Act provides for the repeal of PUHCA effective February 2006. Following PUHCAs repeal, Allegheny will continue to be subject to substantial
regulation, including increased authority of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). The Energy Policy Act provides FERC additional jurisdiction over utility mergers, acquisitions and certain asset transfers. FERC has issued
notices of proposed rulemaking related to the implementation of the Energy Policy Act. Allegheny is assessing the impact this legislation and FERCs proposed rules will have on its operations.



The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the Combined Annual Report on Form 10-K of AE, Monongahela, Potomac Edison and AGC for the year ended December 31, 2004 (the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K).



The interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by
Allegheny, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used
in the United States of America (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted. Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information not misleading.



In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements included herein reflect all normal recurring
adjustments that are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 and financial position at
September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004. Because of the seasonal nature of Alleghenys operations, results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for
the year ending December 31, 2005.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)



During the third quarter of 2004, AE and certain of its subsidiaries entered into agreements to sell,
or made the decision to sell, certain non-core assets. The results of operations relating to these assets were classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. In accordance
with the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Boards (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS
No. 144), the assets and liabilities associated with these discontinued operations have been classified as held for sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets from September 30, 2004 to the date of sale.



On August 2, 2005, Monongahela signed an agreement to sell its Ohio
electric T&D assets to Columbus Southern Power Company, a subsidiary of American Electric Power. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, the assets and liabilities associated with these operations was classified as held for sale
in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of that date and will remain as held for sale through the date on which the sale concludes. The results of operations related to the Ohio T&D assets have not been reclassified as discontinued operations
because the terms of the sale include a power sales agreement under which Monongahela will sell power to the purchaser for Monongahelas Ohio retail customer base from the time of closing through May 31, 2007.



Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
financial statement presentation for the current period.



Federal and State Income Taxes. Allegheny allocates income tax expense (benefit) to its subsidiaries pursuant to its consolidated tax sharing agreement. This corporate allocation may cause significant fluctuations in the effective
quarterly and year to date tax rates from the statutory rates for certain of Alleghenys subsidiaries, depending on the level of pre-tax income.



Consolidated income tax expense (benefit) differs from an amount calculated at the federal statutory income tax rate of 35%, principally due to state
income taxes, tax credits, the effects of utility rate-making and certain non-deductible expenses, as well as additional tax adjustments recorded during the second and third quarter of 2005, which are described below.



During the second quarter of 2005, Allegheny determined that it had not
claimed certain income tax deductions in its 2003 income tax returns relating to commodity trading contracts. Allegheny plans to file amended 2003 federal and state income tax returns to claim these additional deductions, which will increase
Alleghenys recorded tax net operating loss carryforwards in the amount of approximately $210 million and decrease other recorded deferred tax assets in a similar amount, except for certain state income tax effects. Allegheny recorded a charge
of $3.8 million during the second quarter of 2005 to write off state deferred tax assets that will not be realized due to state limitations on the use of net operating loss carryforwards arising from the correction of this error. The effect of this
adjustment was not material to Alleghenys results of operations for the three or six months ended June 30, 2005 or the year ended December 31, 2003.



On June 30, 2005, the state of Ohio enacted broad changes to its business tax system including a phase-out of the
states income-based franchise tax over a five-year period beginning in 2006. The phase-out of the franchise tax will reduce the benefit of recorded tax assets by $1.9 million, and deferred tax assets were written down by this amount in the
second quarter of 2005. The franchise tax has been replaced by a gross receipts tax that will be phased-in over a five year period beginning July 1, 2005.



On September 27, 2005, WPP Funding LLC, a subsidiary of West Penn, issued $115.0 million of 4.46% Transition Bonds, Series 2005-A with an expected
maturity of June 2010. These bonds securitized an intangible right to receive a revenue stream from ratepayers. The intangible right was transferred to an entity that has a lower effective tax rate than Alleghenys statutory state tax rate. The
reduction in the expected tax liability of $3.8 million was recorded as a benefit in the third quarter. This reduced the effective income tax rate for the third quarter to approximately 33%.



Stock-Based Compensation. AE maintains certain stock-based employee
compensation arrangements, which are described in greater detail in Item 8, Note 18, Stock-Based Compensation, in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These arrangements include AEs Long-Term Incentive Plan, under which stock option
awards, restricted share awards and performance awards may be granted. Options to purchase approximately 0.4 million shares of AEs common stock were granted under the Long-Term Incentive Plan during the nine months ended
September 30, 2005.

Through July 2, 2004, Allegheny recorded compensation expense related to stock units issued to
certain of its executive officers using the variable method of accounting. On that date, Allegheny received authorization from the SEC to settle stock units in shares of AEs common stock as the units vest. As a result, Allegheny began
recording compensation expense relating to stock unit awards using the fixed method of accounting effective July 3, 2004.



Allegheny accounts for stock options under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion
No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related interpretations. No stock option based compensation expense has been recognized in consolidated net income, because all options granted under the Long-Term Incentive Plan
had an exercise price equal to the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant.



Allegheny follows the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure, an Amendment of SFAS No. 123. The following table illustrates the
effect on consolidated net income (loss) and income (loss) per share as if Allegheny had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to all stock-based employee
compensation:

In April 2005, the SEC
adopted a new rule that amended the compliance dates for SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment. SFAS No. 123R was issued by the FASB in December 2004 and will require companies to measure compensation cost for all share-based
payments (including employee stock options) at fair value. As permitted by the new SEC rule, Allegheny plans to adopt SFAS No. 123R on January 1, 2006 and is currently evaluating its financial statement impact.

In April 2005, the holders of
$295.0 million of the outstanding $300.0 million in Trust Preferred Securities issued by Capital Trust accepted AE and Capital Trusts tender offer and consent solicitation. Under the terms of the offer, for each $1,000 in liquidation amount of
Trust Preferred Securities tendered, a holder received 83.33 shares of AE common stock and $160 in cash. On April 22, 2005, AE issued an aggregate of 24.6 million shares of its common stock and $47.2 million in cash to the holders of the
tendered Trust Preferred Securities. In accordance with SFAS No. 84, Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt, the $47.2 million cash payment was expensed during the second quarter of 2005. In addition, AE received the required
consents from holders of the Trust Preferred Securities for amendments to the indenture governing AEs 117/8% Notes due 2008. The holder of the remaining $5.0 million in liquidation amount of Trust Preferred Securities converted its Trust Preferred Securities into 416,650 shares of AE common stock on May 3, 2005.



On June 16, 2005, AE and AE Supply (together, the Borrowers)
entered into a new $700 million credit facility (the New AE Credit Facility) comprised of a $400 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the Revolving Facility) and a $300 million senior unsecured term loan (the
Term Facility). The Revolving Facility (a) refinanced the aggregate principal amount of approximately $122 million outstanding under AEs prior credit facility, (b) continued letters of credit issued under AEs prior
credit facility and (c) provided working capital and letters of credit for AE and, subject to certain limitations, its subsidiaries. The lenders under the Revolving Facility are required to make revolving credit loans to, and issue letters of
credit at the request of, AE. In addition, subject

to certain limitations, AE Supply may borrow, or request letters of credit for, up to $50 million directly under the
Revolving Facility. AE is permitted to request letters of credit in an amount not in excess of $125 million on behalf of AE Supply and its subsidiaries. The Revolving Facility matures June 16, 2010.



On August 1, 2005, AE used the proceeds of the Term Facility to
refinance the aggregate principal outstanding amount under AEs 7.75% Notes due August 1, 2005. AE must repay the principal amount borrowed under the Term Facility in consecutive quarterly installments equal to 0.25% of the aggregate
principal amount initially advanced to AE under the Term Facility, with the balance due in full at maturity on June 16, 2010. AE may not re-borrow any part of the Term Facility that it repays or prepays.



Loans under the New AE Credit Facility bear interest, depending on the type
of loan requested by the Borrowers, at a rate equal to either (i) the higher of the rate announced publicly by Citibank in New York, from time to time, as Citibanks base rate or 0.50% above the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the Credit
Agreement) (the Base Rate), plus the applicable margin, which is between 1.50% and 0.50% for Base Rate loans, or (ii) the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus the applicable margin, which is between 2.50% and
1.50% for Eurodollar Rate-based loans. The applicable margin for LIBOR borrowings was 2.00% at September 30, 2005. With respect to each letter of credit, the relevant Borrower is required to pay to the Administrative Agent a letter of credit
fee equal to the applicable margin, which ranges from 2.50% to 1.50%, times the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such letter of credit. In each case of a Base Rate loan, Eurodollar Rate loan or letter of credit, the applicable margin
varies depending upon Standard & Poors (S&P) and Moodys Investors Service, Inc.s ratings of certain of AEs public debt. The Borrowers ability to request and maintain Eurodollar Rate loans is

On July 21, 2005, AE
Supply and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a secured term loan facility (the New AE Supply Term Loan) of $1.07 billion. The New AE Supply Term Loan matures in 2011 and has an initial interest rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.75%. The
interest rate will improve to LIBOR plus 1.50% if AE Supplys S&P credit rating improves from current levels. Proceeds from the New AE Supply Term Loan were used, in part, to refinance approximately $738 million outstanding under the prior
AE Supply loan.



Proceeds from the New AE Supply Term Loan were
also used on August 22, 2005 to redeem AE Supplys 10.25% Senior Notes due 2007, which had a principal amount outstanding of approximately $331 million. Also on August 22, 2005, AE Supply used cash on hand to redeem its 13.0% Senior
Notes due 2007, which had a principal amount outstanding of approximately $35 million. AE Supply expensed premiums and costs associated with the redemption of its 10.25% Senior Notes and 13.0% Senior Notes in the amount of $32.6 million during the
three months ended September 30, 2005.



On August 15,
2005, Potomac Edison issued $145 million of 5.125% First Mortgage Bonds due 2015. Approximately $143 million of the proceeds, together with available cash, was used to redeem Potomac Edisons $65 million of outstanding 7.75% First Mortgage
Bonds due 2025 and its $80 million of outstanding 7.625% First Mortgage Bonds due 2025.



On September 27, 2005, WPP Funding LLC, a subsidiary of West Penn, issued $115.0 million of 4.46% Transition Bonds, Series 2005-A with an expected maturity of June 2010. These bonds securitize funds to be
collected from West Penns customers for stranded cost recovery. Interest on these bonds will accrue and be added to the principal amount of the bonds until the first scheduled interest payment date following final payment of the Transition
Bonds, Series 1999-A issued by West Penn Funding LLC, which is expected to occur in June 2008. Thereafter, interest on these bonds will be paid quarterly.

Impairment charges
reflected in the table above represent adjustments of the carrying values of assets held for sale to current estimates of sales proceeds, less costs to sell.



During the third quarter of 2005, Monongahela recorded an impairment charge relating to the anticipated sale of its Ohio electric T&D assets in the
amount of $30.5 million. The impairment was recorded based on the estimated value, at September 30, 2005, of Monongahelas agreement with Columbus Southern Power Company to deliver power at below-market prices from the time of closing
through May 31, 2007, partially offset by approximately $8.0 million, representing the purchase price less the estimated net book value of the assets at the time of closing and approximately $2.0 million in expenses associated with the sale.
Monongahela will record additional charges or credits as the value of the purchase agreement increases or decreases up to the closing date of the sale. The sale is contingent upon certain closing conditions, third party consents and state and
federal regulatory approvals. The sale is expected to close by the end of 2005.



The Ohio electric T&D assets were classified as held for sale as of August 2, 2005. The results of operations relating to the Ohio electric T&D assets have not been included in discontinued operations
because the terms of the sale include a power sales agreement under which Monongahela will sell power to the purchaser for Monongahelas Ohio retail customer base from the time of closing through May 31, 2007.

In addition,
Assets held for sale included intangible assets related to natural gas rights, amortized, with a gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization of $8.4 million and $4.9 million, respectively, at December 31, 2004.



Amortization expense for intangible assets was $3.7 million and $4.3 million

NOTE 6: DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES



Allegheny utilizes derivative instruments to manage its exposure to various market risks, as described in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following information supplements, and should be read in conjunction
with, Item 8, Note 5, Wholesale Energy Activities, and Note 10, Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.



AE Supply records any commodity contract related to energy trading that is a derivative instrument at its fair value as a
component of operating revenues, unless the contract falls within the normal purchases and normal sales scope exception of SFAS No. 133 or is designated as a hedge for accounting purposes. The normal purchases and normal sales scope
exception requires, among other things, physical delivery in quantities expected to be used or sold over a reasonable period in the normal course of business. Contracts that are designated as normal purchases and normal sales are accounted for under
accrual accounting and, therefore, are not recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. For certain transactions that are designed to hedge the cash flows of a forecasted transaction, the effective portion of the hedge is recorded as a separate
component of stockholders equity under the caption Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the forecasted transaction is completed or settled. The ineffective portion of the
hedge is immediately reflected in earnings.



AE Supply has
designated certain contracts as cash flow hedges. The first contracts were designated effective July 1, 2004 and were related to legacy mark to market contracts that are going to be serviced by anticipated excess generation. These contracts
expire at various dates through December 31, 2006. During the third quarter 2005, additional contracts were executed and designated as cash flow hedges to lock in prices for a portion of anticipated excess generation for the period October 2005
through April 2006.

Changes in the fair value of these contracts are reflected in Accumulated other comprehensive
income (loss). For the contracts designated as cash flow hedges on July 1, 2004, the existing derivative liabilities associated with each contract as of that designation date will be recognized in earnings over the remaining term of the
contract, in accordance with the estimated cash flow of the contract at the time of the designation. The contracts represent an aggregate liability at September 30, 2005 of $83.2 million. The $52.1 million increase in this liability since
December 31, 2004 is a result of the change in the fair value of contracts in existence at December 31, 2004 and new cash flow hedge contracts entered into during the third quarter of 2005 and is reflected in Accumulated other
comprehensive income (loss). The accumulated other comprehensive loss balance at September 30, 2005 was $62.1 million. Based on the fair value of AE Supplys financial instruments as of September 30, 2005, accumulated other
comprehensive loss of $53.9 million is expected to be reclassified as a reduction in earnings over the next twelve months. The ineffective portion of the cash flow hedges is reflected in earnings for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2005 and is not material.



Net unrealized
gains (losses) of $4.9 million and $(2.5) million, before income taxes, for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, were recorded in Operating revenues. Net unrealized gains (losses) of $18.2 million and
$(10.8) million, before income taxes, for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, were recorded in Operating revenues. These net unrealized gains (losses) were recorded to reflect the change in fair value of
the trading contracts.



NOTE 7: ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS (AROs)



Allegheny recorded AROs primarily related to ash landfills and underground and aboveground storage tanks. Allegheny also has identified a number of AROs associated with certain of its electric generation and
transmission assets that have not been recorded because the fair value of these obligations cannot be reasonably estimated, primarily due to the indeterminate lives of the assets.



The estimated cost of removal of these assets currently is being recovered through the rate-making process. Allegheny
believes it is probable that any difference between expenses under SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, and expenses recovered currently in rates with respect to these assets will be recoverable in future
rates. Therefore, Allegheny is deferring these differences in expenses as a regulatory asset.



For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, Alleghenys ARO balance increased $2.8 million, from $28.8 million at December 31, 2004 to $31.6 million at September 30, 2005, primarily due to
accretion expense.



Certain estimated removal costs that are
not qualified as AROs are being recovered through the ratemaking process. These costs are recorded by Alleghenys subsidiaries as regulatory liabilities (assets) as follows:



|               |  |                    |       |   |                   |   |       |

In accordance with
SFAS No. 144, Monongahelas $8.8 million regulatory liability at September 30, 2005 for removal costs related to Ohio T&D assets was recorded in liabilities associated with assets held for sale in the accompanying Consolidated
Balance Sheets. See Note 3, Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale for additional information.



In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47 (FIN 47), Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, which
will require entities with an ARO that is conditional on a future event to record the ARO, even if the event has not yet occurred and uncertainty exists as to the timing and method of settlement. This interpretation is effective for fiscal years
ending after December 15, 2005. Obligations as a result of the adoption of FIN 47 will be presented as a cumulative effect due to a change in accounting principle. Allegheny currently is evaluating the impact of FIN 47.

The effects of shares
potentially issuable are not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, as these amounts are antidilutive. The Trust Preferred Securities were converted into shares of AE common stock in the second quarter of 2005. See Note 2,
Debt for additional information.



NOTE 12: PENSION BENEFITS AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS



Substantially all of Alleghenys employees, including officers, are employed by AESC and are covered by noncontributory, defined benefit pension
plans. Benefits are based on each employees years of service and compensation. Allegheny makes annual contributions in an amount not less than the minimum amount required under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
(ERISA). Annual contributions are capped at the maximum amount that may be deducted for federal income tax purposes.



Allegheny also provides partially contributory medical and life insurance plans for eligible retirees and dependents. Medical benefits, which make up the
largest component of the plans, are based upon an age and years-of-service vesting schedule and other plan provisions. Subsidized medical coverage is not provided in retirement to employees hired on or after January 1, 1993, with the exception
of certain union employees. The postretirement health care plans include a limit on Alleghenys share of costs for recent and future retirees.

NOTE 14: GUARANTEES AND LETTERS OF CREDIT



As of September 30, 2005, Alleghenys Consolidated Balance Sheet reflected liabilities of $6.6 million, primarily related to AE Supplys guarantee of the performance of a put option issued in connection with an asset sale.



As of September 30, 2005, Allegheny had an additional
$16.3 million in guarantees for which no liability has been recorded. Of these guarantees, approximately $2.9 million relates to the purchase, sale, exchange or transportation of wholesale natural gas, electric power and related services, $4.7
million relates to a lease agreement that was signed in 2001 and $8.7 million relates to loans and other financing-related matters.



In addition, $136.5 million in letters of credit was outstanding at September 30, 2005 under AEs revolving credit facility. Of this amount, a

pending, and letters of credit for $9.5 million and $2.0 million that expire in July 2006 and September 2006, respectively, were issued on behalf of Allegheny Energy Solutions, Inc. AE Supply also has a $1.6 million letter of credit outstanding that
is collateralized by cash and is not issued under AEs revolving facility. This $1.6 million letter of credit expires in February 2006. None of these letters of credit are recorded on Alleghenys Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Potomac Edison and West Penn each have a long-term electricity purchase contract with an unrelated
independent power producer (IPP) that represents a variable interest under FIN 46R. Allegheny has been unable to obtain certain information from the IPPs necessary to determine if the related variable interest entities (VIEs)
should be consolidated under FIN 46R.



Potomac Edison and West
Penn had power purchases from these two IPPs in the amount of $26.7 million and $11.1 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and $25.8 million and $11.7 million, respectively, for the three months ended
September 30, 2004.



Potomac Edison and West Penn had
power purchases from these two IPPs in the amount of $79.3 million and $32.3 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and $70.3 million and $34.8 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30,
2004.



Potomac Edison recovers the full amount, and West Penn
recovers a portion, of the cost of the applicable power contract in their respective rates charged to consumers or through customer surcharges. Neither Potomac Edison nor West Penn is subject to any risk of loss associated with the applicable VIE,
because neither of them has any obligation to the applicable IPP other than to purchase the power that the IPP produces according to the terms of the applicable electricity purchase contract.



NOTE 16: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES



Reference is made to Item 8, Note 27, Commitments and Contingencies, in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.



Environmental Matters and Litigation



Allegheny is subject to various laws, regulations and uncertainties as to environmental matters. Compliance may require Allegheny to incur substantial
additional costs to modify or replace existing and proposed equipment and facilities that may adversely affect the cost of future operations.



Clean Air Act Matters: Allegheny currently meets applicable standards for particulate matter emissions at its generation stations
through the use of high-efficiency electrostatic precipitators, cleaned coal, flue-gas conditioning, optimization software and fuel combustion modifications and, at times, through reduction of output. From time to time, minor excursions of stack
emission opacity that are normal to fossil fuel operations are experienced and accommodated by the regulatory process.



Allegheny meets current emission standards for sulfur dioxide (SO2) by using scrubbers, burning low-sulfur coal, purchasing cleaned coal (which has lower sulfur content), blending lower-sulfur coal with higher sulfur
coal and using emission allowances.



Alleghenys
compliance with the Clean Air Act of 1970 (the Clean Air Act) has required, and may require in the future, that Allegheny install expensive post-combustion control technologies on many of its generation stations. The Clean Air Interstate
Rule promulgated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the EPA) on March 10, 2005 may accelerate the need to install this equipment by phasing out a portion of currently available allowances.



The Clean Air Act mandates annual reductions of SO2and created a SO2emission allowance trading program. AE Supply and Monongahela comply with current SO2emission standards through a system-wide plan combining the use of emission controls, lower sulfur fuel and emission allowances. Based on current forecasts, Allegheny expects that it will have little to no exposure to the SO2allowance market in 2005. Allegheny estimates that it may have SO2allowance market exposure of 20,000 to 30,000 tons in 2006 and an average exposure of less than 50,000 tons per year in 2007 and 2008. Alleghenys
allowance needs, to a large extent, are affected at any given time by the amount of output produced and the type of fuel used by its generation facilities, as well as the implementation of environmental controls. Therefore, there can be no assurance
that Alleghenys need to purchase SO2allowances for these periods will not vary from current estimates.

In 1998, the EPA finalized its Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) State Implementation Plan
(SIP) call rule (known as the NOx SIP call), which addressed the regional transport of ground-level ozone and required the equivalent of a uniform 0.15 lb/mmBtu emission rate throughout a 22-state region, including
Pennsylvania, Maryland and West Virginia. Compliance with the NOx SIP call was required beginning in May 2004. Pennsylvania and Maryland implemented their respective SIP call rules in May 2003. West Virginias SIP call rules were effective as
of May 2004.



AE Supply and Monongahela have completed
installation of substantially all NOx controls to meet the Pennsylvania, Maryland and West Virginia SIP calls. These NOx controls include selective catalytic reduction at the Harrison and Pleasants generation stations and selective noncatalytic
reduction at the Hatfields Ferry and Fort Martin generation stations, as well as burner modifications at the Mitchell generation station. The NOx compliance plan functions on a system-wide basis, similar to the SO2compliance plan. AE Supply and Monongahela also have the option, in some cases, to purchase alternate fuels or NOx allowances,
if needed, to supplement their compliance strategies. Allegheny currently estimates that its emission control activities, in concert with its inventory of banked allowances, will facilitate its compliance with NOx limits established by the SIP
through 2008. Alleghenys allowance needs, to a large extent, are affected at any given time by the amount of output produced and the type of fuel used by its generation facilities. Alleghenys capital expenditure forecast includes the
expenditure of $4.7 million of capital costs during the 2005 through 2007 period for additional NOx emission controls.



On March 15, 2005, the EPA issued the Clean Air Mercury Rule (CAMR) establishing a cap and trade system designed to reduce mercury
emissions from coal-fired power plants in two phases due 2010 and 2018. This rule will be implemented through state implementation plans currently under development. The rule has been challenged by several parties. AE is currently assessing CAMR and
its strategy for compliance.



Clean Air Act
Litigation: In August 2000, AE received a letter from the EPA requesting that it provide information and documentation relevant to the operation and maintenance of the following ten electric generation stations, which collectively include 22
generation units: Albright, Armstrong, Fort Martin, Harrison, Hatfields Ferry, Mitchell, Pleasants, Rivesville, R. Paul Smith and Willow Island. AE Supply and Monongahela own these generation stations. The letter requested information under
Section 114 of the Clean Air Act to determine compliance with the Clean Air Act and related requirements, including potential application of the New Source Review (NSR) standards of the Clean Air Act, which can require the
installation of additional emission control equipment when the major modification of an existing facility results in an increase in emissions. AE provided responsive information to this and a subsequent request. At this time, AE is engaged in
continuing discussions with the EPA with respect to environmental matters, including NSR issues.



If NSR requirements are imposed on Alleghenys generation stations, in addition to the possible imposition of fines, compliance would entail
significant capital investments in pollution control technology. There are three recent, significant federal court decisions that have addressed the application of NSR requirements to electric utility generating units: the Ohio Edison decision, the
Duke Energy decision and the Alabama Power decision. The Ohio Edison decision is favorable to the EPA. The Duke Energy and Alabama Power decisions support the industrys understanding of NSR requirements. The United States Court of Appeals for
the Fourth Circuit affirmed the Duke Energy decision on June 15, 2005.



In 2003, the U.S. EPA issued the Equipment Replacement Rule, which sets forth a clearer set of rules for projects that may be undertaken without triggering NSR requirement. This rule would apply the Routine
Maintenance, Repair and Replacement (RMRR) exception to the NSR requirement in a manner that is more consistent with the energy industrys historical compliance approach. That rule was challenged by some states and environmental
groups and, on December 24, 2003, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit issued an order to stay the implementation of that rule. At this time, AE and its subsidiaries are not able to determine the effect that these
actions may have on them.



On May 20, 2004, AE, AE Supply,
Monongahela and West Penn received a Notice of Intent to Sue Pursuant to Clean Air Act §7604 (the Notice) from the Attorneys General of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut and from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental
Protection (PA DEP). The Notice alleged that Allegheny made major modifications to some of its West Virginia facilities in violation of the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) provisions of the Clean Air Act at the
following coal-fired facilities: Albright Unit No. 3; Fort Martin Units No. 1 and 2; Harrison Units No. 1, 2 and 3; Pleasants Units No. 1 and 2 and Willow Island Unit No. 2.

The Notice also alleged PSD violations at the Armstrong, Hatfields Ferry and Mitchell generation stations in
Pennsylvania and identifies PA DEP as the lead agency regarding those facilities. On September 8, 2004, AE, AE Supply, Monongahela and West Penn received a separate Notice of Intent to Sue from the Maryland Attorney General that essentially
mirrored the previous Notice.



On January 6, 2005, AE
Supply and Monongahela filed a declaratory judgment action against the Attorneys General of New York, Connecticut and New Jersey in federal district court in West Virginia (West Virginia DJ Action). This action requests that the court
declare that AE Supplys and Monongahelas coal-fired generation facilities in Pennsylvania and West Virginia comply with the Clean Air Act. The Attorneys General filed a motion to dismiss the West Virginia DJ Action. It is also possible
that the EPA and other state authorities may join or move to transfer the West Virginia DJ Action or, if it is dismissed, that a new action may be filed by the Attorneys General.



On February 16, 2005, Citizens for Pennsylvanias Future, an environmental group, sued Allegheny in the U.S.
District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania. The action alleges violations of opacity limits and particulate matter emission limits at the Hatfields Ferry generation facility.



On June 28, 2005, the PA DEP and the Attorneys General of New York, New
Jersey, Connecticut and Maryland filed suit against AE, AE Supply and the Distribution Companies in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania (PA Enforcement Action). This action alleges NSR violations
under the federal Clean Air Act and the Pennsylvania Air Pollution Control Act at the Hatfields Ferry, Armstrong and Mitchell facilities in Pennsylvania. The PA Enforcement Action appears to raise the same issues regarding Alleghenys
Pennsylvania plants that are before the federal District Court in the West Virginia DJ Action, except that the PA Enforcement Action also includes the PA DEP and the Maryland AG. Allegheny has filed a motion to stay the PA Enforcement Action. If the
Attorneys Generals motion to dismiss the West Virginia DJ Action is denied and the Allegheny motion to stay the PA Enforcement Action is granted, Allegheny may move to have the PA Enforcement Action transferred to and consolidated with the
West Virginia DJ Action.



Allegheny intends to vigorously
pursue and defend against the environmental matters described above but cannot predict their outcomes.



Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA) Claim: On March 4, 1994, Monongahela
and certain affiliated companies received notice that the EPA had identified them as potentially responsible parties (PRPs) with respect to the Jacks Creek/Sitkin Smelting Superfund Site in Pennsylvania. Initially, approximately
175 PRPs were involved; however, the current number of active PRPs has been reduced as a result of settlements with de minimis contributors and other contributors to the site. The costs of remediation will be shared by all past and active
responsible parties. In 1999, a PRP group that included Monongahela and certain affiliated companies entered into a consent order with the EPA to remediate the site. It is currently estimated that the total remediation costs to be borne by all of
the responsible parties will not exceed $30.0 million. Allegheny has an accrued liability representing its estimated share of the remediation costs as of September 30, 2005.



Claims Related to Alleged Asbestos Exposure: The Distribution Companies have been named as defendants, along
with multiple other defendants, in pending asbestos cases alleging bodily injury involving multiple plaintiffs and multiple sites. These suits have been brought mostly by seasonal contractors employees and do not involve allegations of either
the manufacture, sale or distribution of asbestos-containing products by Allegheny. These asbestos suits arise out of historical operations and are related to the installation and removal of asbestos-containing materials at Alleghenys
generation facilities. Alleghenys historical operations were insured by various foreign and domestic insurers, including Lloyds of London. Asbestos-related litigation expenses have to date been reimbursed in full by recoveries from these
historical insurers, and Allegheny believes that it has sufficient insurance to respond fully to the asbestos suits. Certain insurers, however, have contested their obligations to pay for the future defense and settlement costs relating to the
asbestos suits. Allegheny is currently involved in two asbestos insurance-related actions, Certain Underwriters at Lloyds, London et al. v. Allegheny Energy, Inc. et al., Case No. 21-C-03-16733 (Washington County, Md.), and
Monongahela Power Company et al. v. Certain Underwriters at Lloyds London and London Market Companies, et al., Civil Action No. 03-C-281 (Monongalia County, W.Va.). The parties in these actions are seeking an allocation of
responsibility for historic and potential future asbestos liability. Allegheny and numerous others are plaintiffs in a similar action filed against Zurich Insurance Company in California, Fuller-Austin Asbestos Settlement Trust, et al. v.
Zurich-American Insurance Co., et al.,Case No. CGC 04 431719 (Superior Court of California, County of San Francisco).

In connection with a settlement, Allegheny received payment from one of its insurance companies in
the amount of $625,000 on July 5, 2005, with the next payment of $625,000 due July 1, 2006. As part of the settlement, Allegheny released this insurance company from potential liabilities associated with claims against Allegheny alleging
asbestos exposure.



Allegheny does not believe that the
existence or pendency of either the asbestos suits or the actions involving its insurance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Allegheny believes that it has established adequate
reserves, net of insurance receivables and recoveries, to cover existing and future asbestos claims. As of October 12, 2005, Allegheny had 836 open cases remaining in West Virginia, and five in Pennsylvania.



Allegheny intends to vigorously defend against these actions but cannot
predict their outcomes.



Canadian Toxic-Tort Class
Action:On June 30, 2005, AE Supply, Monongahela and AGC, along with 18 other companies with coal-fired generating plants, were named as defendants in a toxic-tort, purported class action lawsuit filed in the Ontario Superior Court of
Justice. On behalf of a purported class comprised of all persons residing in Ontario within the past six years (and/or their family members or heirs), the named plaintiffs allege that the defendants negligently failed to prevent their plants from
emitting air pollutants in such a manner as to cause death and multiple adverse health effects, as well as economic damages, to the plaintiff class. The plaintiffs seek damages in the approximate amount of Canadian $49.1 billion (approximately US
$41.6 billion, assuming an exchange rate of 1.18 Canadian dollars per US dollar), along with continuing damages in the amount of Canadian $4.1 billion per year and punitive damages of Canadian $1.0 billion (approximately US $3.5 billion and US $850
million, respectively, assuming an exchange rate of 1.18 Canadian dollars per US dollar) along with such other relief as the court deems just. Allegheny has not yet been served with this lawsuit. Allegheny intends to vigorously defend against this
action but cannot predict its outcome.



Other Litigation



Putative Class Actions Under California Statutes: Eight
related putative class action lawsuits were filed against and served on AE Supply and more than two dozen other named defendant power suppliers in various California superior courts during 2002. These class action suits were removed from state court
and transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California. Seven of the suits were commenced by consumers of wholesale electricity in California. The eighth, Millar v. Allegheny Energy Supply Co., et al., was filed on behalf
of California consumers and taxpayers. The complaints allege, among other things, that AE Supply and the other defendant power suppliers violated Californias antitrust statute and the California unfair business practices statutes by
manipulating the California electricity market. The suits also challenge the validity of various long-term power contracts with the State of California, including the CDWR contract.



On August 25, 2003, the U.S. District Court granted AE Supplys motion to dismiss the seven consumer class actions
with prejudice. On February 25, 2005, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed the District Courts judgment dismissing the seven class actions with prejudice.



The District Court separately granted plaintiffs motion to remand in
the eighth action, Millar, on July 9, 2003. On December 18, 2003, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint in California state court, solely on behalf of consumers, naming certain additional defendants, including The Goldman Sachs Group,
Inc. (Goldman Sachs). The case was removed to federal court based on the amended complaint. On January 11, 2005, the federal district court remanded the case back to the state court in San Francisco. On May 6, 2005, the
defendants in the Millar action filed a series of demurrers seeking to have the action dismissed. On September 7, 2005, the state court ruled that the plaintiffs complaint would be dismissed without leave to amend. On October 7,
2005, the state court entered judgment dismissing the complaint without leave to amend. Plaintiffs have agreed not to appeal the state courts judgment.



Nevada Power Contracts: On December 7, 2001, Nevada Power Company (NPC) filed a complaint with FERC against AE Supply
seeking action by FERC to modify prices payable to AE Supply under three trade confirmations between Merrill Lynch and NPC. NPCs claim was based, in part, on the assertion that

dysfunctional California spot markets had an adverse effect on the prices NPC was able to negotiate with Merrill
Lynch under the contracts. NPC filed substantially identical complaints against a number of other energy suppliers. On December 19, 2002, the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) issued findings that no contract modification was
warranted. The ALJ determined in favor of NPC that AE Supply, rather than Merrill Lynch, was a proper subject of NPCs complaint.



On June 26, 2003, FERC affirmed the ALJs decision upholding the long-term contracts negotiated between NPC and Merrill Lynch, among others, and
did not render a decision on whether AE Supply, rather than Merrill Lynch, was the real party in interest. On November 10, 2003, FERC issued an order, on rehearing, affirming its conclusion that the long-term contracts should not be modified.
Snohomish County and other parties filed petitions for review of FERCs June 26, 2003 order with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit (the NPC Petitions). The NPC Petitions were consolidated in the Ninth Circuit. On
December 17, 2003, AE Supply filed a motion to intervene in this proceeding in the Ninth Circuit. The Ninth Circuit heard oral argument in these cases on December 8, 2004.



AE Supply intends to vigorously defend against these actions but cannot predict their outcomes.



Sierra/Nevada: On April 2, 2003, NPC and Sierra Pacific
Resources, Inc. (together, Sierra/Nevada) initiated a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Nevada against AE and AE Supply, together with Merrill Lynch & Co. and Merrill Lynch Capital Services, Inc. (together, Merrill).
The complaint alleged that AE, AE Supply and Merrill engaged in fraudulent conduct in connection with NPCs application to the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada (the Nevada PUC) for a deferred energy accounting adjustment, which
allegedly caused the Nevada PUC to disallow $180 million of NPCs deferred energy expenses. Sierra/Nevada asserted claims against AE and AE Supply for: (a) tortious interference with Sierra/Nevadas contractual and prospective
economic advantages; (b) conspiracy and (c) violations of the Nevada state Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization (RICO) Act. Sierra/Nevada filed an amended complaint on May 30, 2003, which asserted a fourth cause
of action against AE and AE Supply for wrongful hiring and supervision. Sierra/Nevada seeks $180 million in compensatory damages plus attorneys fees and seeks in excess of $850 million under the RICO count. AE and AE Supply filed motions to
dismiss the complaints on May 6, 2003 and June 23, 2003. Thereafter, plaintiffs filed a motion to stay the action, pending the outcome of certain state court proceedings in which they are seeking to reverse the Nevada PUCs
disallowance of expenses. On April 4, 2005, the District Court granted the stay motion, and the action is currently stayed.



AE Supply intends to vigorously defend against this action but cannot predict its outcome.



Litigation Involving Merrill Lynch: AE and AE Supply entered into an asset purchase agreement with Merrill
Lynch and affiliated parties in 2001, under which AE and AE Supply purchased Merrill Lynchs energy marketing and trading business for approximately $489 million and an equity interest in AE Supply of nearly 2%. The asset purchase agreement
provided that Merrill Lynch would have the right to require AE to purchase Merrill Lynchs equity interest in AE Supply for $115 million plus interest calculated from March 16, 2001 in the event that certain conditions were not met.



On September 24, 2002, certain Merrill Lynch entities
filed a complaint against AE in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, alleging that AE breached the asset purchase agreement by failing to repurchase the equity interest in AE Supply from Merrill Lynch and seeking damages in
excess of $125 million. On September 25, 2002, AE and AE Supply filed an action against Merrill Lynch in New York state court. The complaint in that action alleged that Merrill Lynch fraudulently induced AE to enter into the purchase agreement
and that Merrill Lynch breached certain representations and warranties contained in the agreement.



On May 29, 2003, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York denied AEs motion to stay Merrill Lynchs action and
ordered that AE and AE Supply assert their claims against Merrill Lynch, which were initially brought in New York state court, as counterclaims in Merrill Lynchs federal court action. As a result, AE and AE Supply dismissed the New York state
action and filed an answer and asserted affirmative defenses and counterclaims against Merrill Lynch in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The counterclaims, as amended, alleged that Merrill Lynch fraudulently induced AE
and AE Supply to enter into the purchase agreement, that Merrill Lynch breached certain representations and warranties contained in the purchase agreement, that Merrill Lynch negligently misrepresented certain facts relating to the purchase
agreement and that Merrill Lynch breached fiduciary duties owed to AE and AE Supply. The counterclaims seek damages in excess of $605 million, among other relief.

On November 24, 2003, the court dismissed AE and AE Supplys counterclaim for rescission
and struck their demand for a jury trial. On February 2, 2005, following discovery, the parties filed separate motions for summary judgment. On April 12, 2005, the court granted Merrill Lynchs motion for summary judgment on its
breach of contract claim, thereby requiring AE to purchase Merrill Lynchs equity interest in AE Supply for $115 million plus interest from March 16, 2001, to be offset by any judgment in favor of AE and AE Supply on their counterclaims.
The court denied Merrill Lynchs summary judgment motion with respect to AE and AE Supplys counterclaims for fraudulent inducement and breach of contract, and granted Merrill Lynchs motion with respect to the counterclaims for
breach of fiduciary duty and negligent misrepresentations. The court also denied AE and AE Supplys motion for partial summary judgment on their breach of contract claims.



In May and June of 2005, the court conducted a trial with respect to the damages owed Merrill Lynch on its breach of
contract claim and with respect to AE and AE Supplys counterclaims for fraudulent inducement and breach of contract. Following the trial, on July 18, 2005, the court entered an order: (a) ruling against AE and AE Supply on their
fraudulent inducement and breach of contract claims; (b) requiring AE to pay $115 million plus interest to Merrill Lynch; and (c) requiring Merrill Lynch to return its equity interest in AE Supply to AE. On August 26, 2005, the court
entered its final judgment in accordance with its July 18, 2005 ruling. On September 22, 2005, AE and AE Supply filed a notice of appeal of the trial courts judgment to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.
Although AE will not be required to pay Merrill Lynch the amount of the judgment while the appeal is pending, AE has posted a letter of credit to secure the judgment.



As a result of the court ruling, AE recorded a charge during the first quarter of 2005 in the amount of $38.5 million,
representing interest from March 16, 2001 through March 31, 2005, and continues to accrue interest expense thereafter.



The federal government is holding certain assets of Daniel L. Gordon, the former head of energy trading for AE Supply. Both AE and AE Supply, on the one
hand, and Merrill Lynch, on the other hand, filed petitions with the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York claiming rights to the funds. In June 2005, AE, AE Supply, Merrill Lynch and the U.S. Attorneys Office entered into
a settlement agreement pursuant to which AE Supply and Merrill Lynch will receive equal portions of certain of the assets held by the federal government. AE Supply has received approximately $11 million from the forfeited assets and may receive
additional amounts if certain funds are released from a separate escrow.



Putative Shareholder, Benefit Plan Class Actions and Derivative Actions: From October 2002 through December 2002, plaintiffs claiming to represent purchasers of AEs securities filed 14 putative
class action lawsuits against AE and several of its former senior managers in U.S. District Courts for the Southern District of New York and the District of Maryland. The complaints alleged that AE and senior management violated federal securities
laws when AE purchased Merrill Lynchs energy marketing and trading business with the knowledge that the business was built on illegal wash or round-trip trades with Enron, which the complaints alleged artificially inflated trading revenue,
volume and growth. The complaints asserted that AEs fortunes fell when Enrons collapse exposed what plaintiffs claim were illegal trades in the energy markets. All of the securities cases were transferred to the District of Maryland and
consolidated. The plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on May 3, 2004 that alleged that the defendants violated federal securities laws by failing to disclose weaknesses in Merrill Lynchs energy marketing and trading business, as well as
other internal control and accounting deficiencies. The amended complaint seeks unspecified compensatory damages and equitable relief.



In June 2003, a shareholder derivative action was filed against AEs Board of Directors and several former senior managers in the Supreme Court of
the State of New York for the County of New York. The suit alleges that the Board and former senior management breached fiduciary duties to AE that have exposed AE to the securities class action lawsuits. The New York state court derivative action
has been stayed pending the commencement of discovery in the securities cases. On April 8, 2005, a second shareholder derivative action was filed against AEs Board of Directors and several former senior managers and former directors. The
action was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland and consolidated with the securities class actions pending in that court. The Maryland derivative action contains allegations similar to the New York state court derivative
action.

AE has reached agreements in principle to settle the consolidated securities class action as well as
the related shareholder derivative actions. The proposed settlements remain subject to a number of conditions, including the negotiation of final settlement documents and court approval following notice to shareholders and class members. Under the
proposed settlement in the consolidated securities class action, the action will be dismissed with prejudice in exchange for a cash payment of $15.05 million, which will be made by AEs insurance carrier. Pursuant to the proposed settlement of
the shareholder derivative actions, those actions will be dismissed with prejudice in exchange for a cash payment of $450,000, which will be made by AEs insurance carrier, and AEs agreement to adopt certain corporate governance changes.
In connection with the settlements, AE and the other settling defendants continue to deny allegations of wrongdoing, and, if the settlements are approved, they will receive a full release of all claims asserted in the litigation.



In February and March 2003, two putative class action lawsuits were filed
against AE in U.S. District Courts for the Southern District of New York and the District of Maryland. The suits alleged that AE and a senior manager violated ERISA by: (a) failing to provide complete and accurate information to plan
beneficiaries regarding the energy trading business, among other things; (b) failing to diversify plan assets; (c) failing to monitor investment alternatives; (d) failing to avoid conflicts of interest and (e) violating fiduciary
duties. The ERISA cases were consolidated in the District of Maryland. On April 26, 2004, the plaintiffs in the ERISA cases filed an amended complaint, adding a number of current and former directors of AE as defendants and clarifying the
nature of their claims. On June 25, 2004, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. Plaintiffs have opposed the motion and it remains outstanding. AE intends to vigorously defend against these actions but cannot predict
their outcome.



Suits Related to the Gleason Generating
Facility: Allegheny Energy Supply Gleason Generating Facility, LLC, a subsidiary of AE Supply, is the defendant in a suit brought in the Circuit Court for Weakley County, Tennessee, by residents living in the vicinity of the generation
facility in Gleason, Tennessee. The original suit was filed on September 16, 2002. AE Supply purchased the generation facility in 2001. The plaintiffs are asserting claims based on trespass and/or nuisance, claiming personal injury and property
damage as a result of noise from the generation facility. They seek a restraining order with respect to the operation of the plant and damages of $200 million. A mediation session was held on June 17, 2004, but the parties did not reach
settlement. AE has undertaken property purchases and other mitigation measures. AE intends to vigorously defend against this action but cannot predict its outcome.



AE Supply demanded indemnification from Siemens Westinghouse, the manufacturer of the turbines used in the Gleason
Generating Facility, pursuant to the terms of the related equipment purchase agreement. On October 17, 2002, Siemens Westinghouse filed a declaratory judgment action in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, against AE
Supply and its subsidiary seeking a declaration that the prior owner released Siemens Westinghouse from this liability through a release executed after AE Supply purchased the Gleason facility. On September 23, 2005, AE Supply entered into a
confidential Settlement Agreement with Siemens Westinghouse that resolved various disputes between the parties. As a result, the declaratory judgment action filed by Siemens Westinghouse is to be dismissed with prejudice.



SEC Matters: On October 9, October 25 and
November 5, 2002, AE received subpoenas from the SEC. The subpoenas principally concerned: (a) the departure of Daniel L. Gordon; (b) AEs litigation with Merrill Lynch; (c) AE Supplys valuation and management of its
trading business; (d) AEs November 4, 2002 press release concerning its financial statements; (e) the departure of AEs and its subsidiaries Controller, Thomas Kloc, in June 2002 and (f) AEs acquisition of
power plants from Enron. AE and AE Supply responded to the subpoenas.



On January 16, 2004, the SEC requested that AE voluntarily produce certain documents in connection with an informal investigation of AE, and the SEC has since requested the voluntary production of additional documents. AE has responded
to the SECs requests for documents. The SEC also has taken testimony from several current and former employees. AE is cooperating fully with the SEC.



LTI Arbitration: On April 22, 2004, Leasing Technologies International, Inc. and its shareholders (collectively, LTI) filed
a demand for arbitration against Allegheny Ventures and AE before the American Arbitration Association. In December 2000, Allegheny Ventures entered into an agreement to acquire LTI, an equipment leasing company. Allegheny Ventures terminated the
agreement on May 4, 2001. LTI alleges that the termination of the agreement was unjustified and seeks damages in an unspecified amount for breach of the

(unaudited)



agreement, as well as other consequential damages. On June 11, 2004, AE and Allegheny Ventures filed an answer
to LTIs demand, denying all claims. On November 2, 2005, AE and Allegheny Ventures agreed in principle to pay $15 million in settlement of this dispute and in exchange for a full release of all claims asserted by LTI. The proposed
settlement remains subject to the negotiation of final settlement documents. The settlement does not constitute an admission of fault, and Allegheny continues to deny the allegations made by LTI in the arbitration.



Litigation with Mobotec: On July 20, 2004, MobotecUSA,
Inc. (Mobotec) filed a lawsuit in the Court of Common Pleas of Greene County, Pennsylvania against AE, AE Supply and an Allegheny employee (the Mobotec Action). Allegheny had contracted with Mobotec for the installation of
NOxemissions reduction equipment at certain Allegheny facilities. Mobotecs complaint alleged that AE and AE
Supply had breached the agreements with Mobotec by failing to pay Mobotec approximately $3.3 million. The complaint also asserted claims for enforcement of mechanics liens and claims for (a) intentional interference with prospective
business relations; (b) trade libel and defamation; (c) breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing; (d) unjust enrichment and quantum meruit; and (e) civil conspiracy. Mobotec alleges that Allegheny falsely told third
parties that Mobotec was unsuccessful in installing its equipment and claims that it lost approximately $50 million in prospective business as a result. On September 9, 2004, AE and AE Supply filed an answer denying Mobotecs claims and
asserting a counterclaim for breach of contract based on Mobotecs failure to achieve the emissions reduction levels guaranteed in the agreements. On September 23, 2005, Mobotec filed a Second Amended Complaint adding AESC as a party and
asserting additional claims for breaches of confidentiality agreements and misappropriation of trade secrets. The Defendants have filed an answer denying Mobotecs claims. On October 19, 2005, AE Supply and Monongahela filed in the Court
of Common Pleas of Greene County, Pennsylvania a separate but related complaint against Mobotec, its corporate parent, and certain individuals affiliated with Mobotec (the Allegheny Action). The Allegheny Action asserts claims for breach
of contract, restitution, breach of warranty, negligence, and negligent misrepresentation based on Mobotecs conduct. Allegheny also has filed a motion to consolidate the Allegheny Action with the Mobotec Action. Allegheny intends to vigorously
defend against and pursue these actions but cannot predict their outcomes.

MONONGAHELA POWER COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)



NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION



Monongahela Power Company, together with its consolidated subsidiaries (Monongahela), is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allegheny Energy, Inc. (AE, and together with its consolidated subsidiaries,
Allegheny). Monongahela, along with its regulated utility affiliates, The Potomac Edison Company (Potomac Edison) and West Penn Power Company (West Penn), collectively doing business as Allegheny Power, operates
electric transmission and distribution (T&D) systems. Monongahela operates electric T&D systems in Ohio and West Virginia. Monongahela also generates power for its West Virginia customers. Monongahela has two principal business
segments. The Generation and Marketing segment includes Monongahelas power generation operations. The Delivery and Services segment includes Monongahelas electric T&D operations.



Monongahela is subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC), the Public Service Commission of West Virginia, the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).



Monongahela is subject to regulation by the SEC under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 (PUHCA).
Currently, PUHCA imposes financial and operational conditions and restrictions on many aspects of Monongahelas business. For example, PUHCA requires pre-approval from the SEC for, among other things, the issuance of debt or equity securities
and for the sale or acquisition of utility assets. On August 8, 2005, the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (the Energy Policy Act) was enacted. The Energy Policy Act provides for the repeal of PUHCA effective February 2006. Following
PUHCAs repeal, Monongahela will continue to be subject to substantial regulation, including increased authority of FERC. The Energy Policy Act provides FERC additional jurisdiction over utility mergers, acquisitions and certain asset
transfers. FERC has issued notices of proposed rulemaking related to the implementation of the Energy Policy Act. Monongahela is assessing the impact this legislation and FERCs proposed rules will have on its operations.



Allegheny Energy Service Corporation (AESC) is a wholly owned
subsidiary of AE that employs all of the people who are employed by Allegheny. On September 19, 2005, AE entered into a Professional Services Agreement (the PSA) with Electronic Data Systems Corporation (EDS) and EDS
Information Services, L.L.C. (EIS, together with EDS, the Service Provider). On November 1, 2005, the Service Provider assumed responsibility for many of Alleghenys information technology functions and the
coordination and installation of an enterprise resource planning system. Unless extended by AE, the PSA will expire on December 31, 2012. Most of the AESC employees performing Alleghenys information technology functions were offered
employment with EDS.



The accompanying unaudited interim
financial statements of Monongahela should be read in conjunction with the Combined Annual Report on Form 10-K of AE, Monongahela, Potomac Edison and Allegheny Generating Company for the year ended December 31, 2004 (the 2004 Annual
Report on Form 10-K).



The interim financial statements
included herein have been prepared by Monongahela, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.



In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements
included herein reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, cash flows for the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 and 2004 and financial position at September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004. Because of the seasonal nature of Monongahelas utility operations, results for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2005 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2005. For more information on the seasonal nature of Monongahelas utility operations, see Part I, Item 1, Risk Factors, Other
Risk Factors Associated with Our Business, in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.



On September 30, 2005 Monongahela sold its West Virginia natural gas operations. The results of operations relating to these assets have been classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying



38

MONONGAHELA POWER COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)



Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. In accordance with the provisions of the Financial
Accounting Standards Boards (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS No. 144), the assets and liabilities
associated with these discontinued operations were classified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets from September 30, 2004 to the date of sale.



On August 2, 2005, Monongahela signed an agreement to sell its Ohio electric T&D assets to Columbus Southern Power Company, a subsidiary of
American Electric Power. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, the assets and liabilities associated with these operations were classified as held for sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of that date and will remain as held
for sale through the date on which the sale concludes. The results of operations related to the Ohio electric T&D assets have not been reclassified as discontinued operations because the terms of the sale include a power sales agreement under
which Monongahela will sell power to the purchaser for Monongahelas Ohio retail customer base from the time of closing through May 31, 2007.



Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the financial statement presentation for the current period.



Federal and State Income Taxes. Allegheny allocates income tax expense
(benefit) to its subsidiaries pursuant to its consolidated tax sharing agreement. This corporate allocation may cause significant fluctuations in the effective quarterly and year to date tax rates from the statutory rates for certain of
Alleghenys subsidiaries, depending on the level of pre-tax income. Income tax expense (benefit) differs from an amount calculated at the federal statutory income tax rate of 35%, principally due to state income taxes, consolidated tax savings,
tax credits, the effects of utility rate-making and certain non-deductible expenses, as well as an additional tax benefit recorded during the second quarter of 2005, which is described below.



During the second quarter of 2005, Allegheny determined that it had not
claimed certain income tax deductions in its 2003 income tax returns relating to commodity trading contracts. Allegheny plans to file amended 2003 federal and state income tax returns to claim these additional deductions, which will increase
Monongahelas allocated share of consolidated tax savings. Accordingly, Monongahela recorded a tax benefit of $4.3 million during the second quarter of 2005 to recognize the additional tax savings. The effect of this adjustment was not material
to Monongahelas results of operations for the three or six months ended June 30, 2005 or the year ended December 31, 2003.



NOTE 2: DEBT



In connection with
Monongahelas sale of its West Virginia natural gas operations, $86.7 million of debt previously classified as liabilities associated with assets held for sale was transferred to the buyer. Monongahela did not issue or redeem any other debt
during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005.



At September 30, 2005, contractual maturities for long-term debt for the remainder of 2005 and for full years thereafter, excluding unamortized discounts of $1.5 million, are as follows:

At September 30, 2005, substantially all of Monongahelas properties were held subject to liens of various relative priorities securing debt
obligations.

NOTE 3: DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE



On September 30, 2005, Monongahela sold its West Virginia natural gas operations. The results of operations relating to these assets have been classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying
Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. In addition, the assets and liabilities associated with these discontinued operations were classified as held for sale in the accompanying balance sheet from September 30, 2004 to the
date of sale.



The components of (loss) income from

Impairment charges
reflected in the table above represent adjustments of the carrying values of assets held for sale to current estimates of sales proceeds, less costs to sell.



During the third quarter of 2005, Monongahela recorded an impairment charge relating to the anticipated sale of its Ohio electric T&D assets in the
amount of $30.5 million. The impairment was recorded based on the estimated value, at September 30, 2005, of Monongahelas agreement with Columbus Southern Power Company to deliver power at below-market prices from the time of closing
through May 31, 2007, partially offset by approximately $8.0 million, representing the purchase price less the estimated net book value of the assets at the time of closing and approximately $2.0 million in expenses associated with the sale.
Monongahela will record additional charges or credits as the value of the purchase agreement increases or decreases up to the closing date of the sale. The sale is contingent upon certain closing conditions, third party consents and state and
federal regulatory approvals. The sale is expected to close by the end of 2005.



The Ohio electric T&D assets were classified as held for sale as of August 2, 2005. The results of operations relating to the Ohio electric T&D assets have not been included in discontinued operations
because the terms of the sale include a power sales agreement under which Monongahela will sell power to the purchaser for Monongahelas Ohio retail customer base from the time of closing through May 31, 2007.



Assets held for sale and liabilities associated with assets held for sale
were as follows:

NOTE 4: ASSET SALES



On
September 30, 2005, Monongahela completed the sale of its natural gas operations in West Virginia to Mountaineer Gas Holdings Limited Partnership, a partnership composed of IGS Utilities LLC, IGS Holdings LLC and affiliates of ArcLight Capital
Partners, LLC, for approximately $161.0 million in cash and the assumption of approximately $87.0 million of long-term debt, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. The assets sold included all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of
Mountaineer Gas and certain other assets related to the West Virginia natural gas operations.



NOTE 5: INTANGIBLE ASSETS



Intangible assets included in Property, Plant and Equipment, Net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets were as follows:

In addition,
Assets held for sale included intangible assets related to natural gas rights, amortized with a gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization of $6.6 million and $4.0 million, respectively, at December 31, 2004.



Amortization expense for intangible assets was $0.3 million and $0.4 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and $1.0 million and $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.



Amortization expense is estimated to be $1.3 million for 2005 and less than $0.1 million for 2006 through 2009 combined.



NOTE 6: ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS (AROs)



Monongahela has AROs primarily related to ash landfills and underground and aboveground storage tanks. Monongahela also has identified a number of AROs associated with certain of its electric generation and
transmission assets that have not been recorded, because the fair value of these obligations cannot be reasonably estimated, primarily due to the indeterminate lives of the assets.



The cost of removal of these assets currently is being recovered through the rate-making process. Monongahela believes it is
probable that any difference between expenses under SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, and expenses recovered currently in rates with respect to these assets will be recoverable in future rates. Therefore,
Monongahela is deferring these differences in expenses as a regulatory asset.



For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, Monongahelas ARO balance increased $0.4 million, from $6.7 million at December 31, 2004 to $7.1 million at September 30, 2005, primarily due to
accretion expense.

Estimated removal costs of $239.0 million and $241.8 million at September 30, 2005 and
December 31, 2004, respectively, that are not qualified as AROs are being recovered through the ratemaking process. These costs are recorded by Monongahela as regulatory liabilities. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, Monongahelas $8.8
million regulatory liability at September 30, 2005 for removal costs related to Ohio T&D assets was recorded in liabilities associated with assets held for sale in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 3, Discontinued
Operations and Assets Held for Sale for additional information.



In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47 (FIN 47), Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, which will require entities with an ARO that is conditional on a future event to record the
ARO, even if the event has not yet occurred and uncertainty exists as to the timing and method of settlement. This interpretation is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. Obligations recorded as a result of the adoption of
FIN 47 will be presented as a cumulative effect due to a change in accounting principle. Monongahela currently is evaluating the impact of FIN 47.



NOTE 7: BUSINESS SEGMENTS



Monongahela manages and evaluates its operations in two business segments, the Delivery and Services segment and the Generation and Marketing segment. The Delivery and Services segment includes Monongahelas electric T&D
operations. The Generation and Marketing segment owns, operates and manages electric generation capacity. The Generation and Marketing segment includes intersegment sales to provide energy to Monongahelas Delivery and Services segment.



Monongahela accounts for intersegment sales based on cost or
regulatory commission approved tariffs or contracts.

NOTE 10: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES



Reference is made to Item 8, Note 27, Commitments and Contingencies, in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.



Environmental Matters and Litigation



Allegheny is subject to various laws, regulations and uncertainties as to environmental matters. Compliance may require Allegheny to incur substantial
additional costs to modify or replace existing and proposed equipment and facilities that may adversely affect the cost of future operations.



Clean Air Act Matters: Allegheny currently meets applicable standards for particulate matter emissions at its generation stations
through the use of high-efficiency electrostatic precipitators, cleaned coal, flue-gas conditioning, optimization software and fuel combustion modifications and, at times, through reduction of output. From time to time, minor excursions of stack
emission opacity that are normal to fossil fuel operations are experienced and accommodated by the regulatory process.



Allegheny meets current emission standards for sulfur dioxide (SO2) by using scrubbers, burning low-sulfur coal, purchasing cleaned coal (which has lower sulfur content), blending lower-sulfur coal with higher sulfur
coal and using emission allowances.



Alleghenys
compliance with the Clean Air Act of 1970 (the Clean Air Act) has required, and may require in the future, that Allegheny install expensive post-combustion control technologies on many of its generation stations. The Clean Air Interstate
Rule promulgated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the EPA) on March 10, 2005 may accelerate the need to install this equipment by phasing out a portion of currently available allowances.



The Clean Air Act mandates annual reductions of SO2and created a SO2emission allowance trading program. AE Supply and Monongahela comply with current SO2emission standards through a system-wide plan combining the use of emission controls, lower sulfur fuel and emission allowances. Based on current forecasts, Allegheny expects that it will have little to no exposure to the SO2allowance market in 2005. Allegheny estimates that it may have SO2allowance market exposure of 20,000 to 30,000 tons in 2006 and an average exposure of less than 50,000 tons per year in 2007 and 2008. Alleghenys
allowance needs, to a large extent, are affected at any given time by the amount of output produced and the type of fuel used by its generation facilities, as well as the implementation of environmental controls. Therefore, there can be no assurance
that Alleghenys need to purchase SO2allowances for these periods will not vary from current estimates.



In 1998, the EPA finalized its Nitrogen Oxide
(NOx) State Implementation Plan (SIP) call rule (known as the NOx SIP call), which addressed the regional transport of ground-level ozone and required the equivalent of a uniform 0.15 lb/mmBtu emission rate
throughout a 22-state region, including Pennsylvania, Maryland and West Virginia. Compliance with the NOx SIP call was required beginning in May 2004. Pennsylvania and Maryland implemented their respective SIP call rules in May 2003. West
Virginias SIP call rules were effective as of May 2004.

AE Supply and Monongahela have completed installation of substantially all NOx controls to meet the
Pennsylvania, Maryland and West Virginia SIP calls. These NOx controls include selective catalytic reduction at the Harrison and Pleasants generation stations and selective noncatalytic reduction at the Hatfields Ferry and Fort Martin
generation stations, as well as burner modifications at the Mitchell generation station. The NOx compliance plan functions on a system-wide basis, similar to the SO2compliance plan. AE Supply and Monongahela also have the option, in some cases, to purchase alternate fuels or NOx allowances, if needed, to supplement their compliance strategies.
Allegheny currently estimates that its emission control activities, in concert with its inventory of banked allowances, will facilitate its compliance with NOx limits established by the SIP through 2008. Alleghenys allowance needs, to a large
extent, are affected at any given time by the amount of output produced and the type of fuel used by its generation facilities. Alleghenys capital expenditure forecast includes the expenditure of $4.7 million of capital costs during the 2005
through 2007 period for additional NOx emission controls.



On
March 15, 2005, the EPA issued the Clean Air Mercury Rule (CAMR) establishing a cap and trade system designed to reduce mercury emissions from coal-fired power plants in two phases due 2010 and 2018. This rule will be implemented
through state implementation plans currently under development. The rule has been challenged by several parties. AE is currently assessing CAMR and its strategy for compliance.



Clean Air Act Litigation: In August 2000, AE received a letter from the EPA requesting that it provide
information and documentation relevant to the operation and maintenance of the following ten electric generation stations, which collectively include 22 generation units: Albright, Armstrong, Fort Martin, Harrison, Hatfields Ferry, Mitchell,
Pleasants, Rivesville, R. Paul Smith and Willow Island. AE Supply and Monongahela own these generation stations. The letter requested information under Section 114 of the Clean Air Act to determine compliance with the Clean Air Act and related
requirements, including potential application of the New Source Review (NSR) standards of the Clean Air Act, which can require the installation of additional emission control equipment when the major modification of an existing facility
results in an increase in emissions. AE provided responsive information to this and a subsequent request. At this time, AE is engaged in continuing discussions with the EPA with respect to environmental matters, including NSR issues.



If NSR requirements are imposed on Alleghenys generation stations, in
addition to the possible imposition of fines, compliance would entail significant capital investments in pollution control technology. There are three recent, significant federal court decisions that have addressed the application of NSR
requirements to electric utility generating units: the Ohio Edison decision, the Duke Energy decision and the Alabama Power decision. The Ohio Edison decision is favorable to the EPA. The Duke Energy and Alabama Power decisions support the
industrys understanding of NSR requirements. The United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit affirmed the Duke Energy decision on June 15, 2005.



In 2003, the U.S. EPA issued the Equipment Replacement Rule, which sets forth a clearer set of rules for projects that may
be undertaken without triggering NSR requirement. This rule would apply the Routine Maintenance, Repair and Replacement (RMRR) exception to the NSR requirement in a manner that is more consistent with the energy industrys
historical compliance approach. That rule was challenged by some states and environmental groups and, on December 24, 2003, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit issued an order to stay the implementation of that rule.
At this time, AE and its subsidiaries are not able to determine the effect that these actions may have on them.



On May 20, 2004, AE, AE Supply, Monongahela and West Penn received a Notice of Intent to Sue Pursuant to Clean Air Act §7604 (the
Notice) from the Attorneys General of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut and from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PA DEP). The Notice alleged that Allegheny made major modifications to some of its
West Virginia facilities in violation of the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) provisions of the Clean Air Act at the following coal-fired facilities: Albright Unit No. 3; Fort Martin Units No. 1 and 2; Harrison
Units No. 1, 2 and 3; Pleasants Units No. 1 and 2 and Willow Island Unit No. 2. The Notice also alleged PSD violations at the Armstrong, Hatfields Ferry and Mitchell generation stations in Pennsylvania and identifies PA DEP as
the lead agency regarding those facilities. On September 8, 2004, AE, AE Supply, Monongahela and West Penn received a separate Notice of Intent to Sue from the Maryland Attorney General that essentially mirrored the previous Notice.

On January 6, 2005, AE Supply and Monongahela filed a declaratory judgment action against the
Attorneys General of New York, Connecticut and New Jersey in federal district court in West Virginia (West Virginia DJ Action). This action requests that the court declare that AE Supplys and Monongahelas coal-fired
generation facilities in Pennsylvania and West Virginia comply with the Clean Air Act. The Attorneys General filed a motion to dismiss the West Virginia DJ Action. It is also possible that the EPA and other state authorities may join or move to
transfer the West Virginia DJ Action or, if it is dismissed, that a new action may be filed by the Attorneys General.



On February 16, 2005, Citizens for Pennsylvanias Future, an environmental group, sued Allegheny in the U.S. District Court for the Western
District of Pennsylvania. The action alleges violations of opacity limits and particulate matter emission limits at the Hatfields Ferry generation facility.



On June 28, 2005, the PA DEP and the Attorneys General of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Maryland filed suit
against AE, AE Supply and the Distribution Companies in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania (PA Enforcement Action). This action alleges NSR violations under the federal Clean Air Act and the
Pennsylvania Air Pollution Control Act at the Hatfields Ferry, Armstrong and Mitchell facilities in Pennsylvania. The PA Enforcement Action appears to raise the same issues regarding Alleghenys Pennsylvania plants that are before the
federal District Court in the West Virginia DJ Action, except that the PA Enforcement Action also includes the PA DEP and the Maryland AG. Allegheny has filed a motion to stay the PA Enforcement Action. If the Attorneys Generals motion to
dismiss the West Virginia DJ Action is denied and the Allegheny motion to stay the PA Enforcement Action is granted, Allegheny may move to have the PA Enforcement Action transferred to and consolidated with the West Virginia DJ Action.



Allegheny intends to vigorously pursue and defend against the
environmental matters described above but cannot predict their outcomes.



Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA) Claim: On March 4, 1994, Monongahela and certain affiliated companies received notice that the EPA
had identified them as potentially responsible parties (PRPs) with respect to the Jacks Creek/Sitkin Smelting Superfund Site in Pennsylvania. Initially, approximately 175 PRPs were involved; however, the current number of active
PRPs has been reduced as a result of settlements with de minimis contributors and other contributors to the site. The costs of remediation will be shared by all past and active responsible parties. In 1999, a PRP group that included Monongahela and
certain affiliated companies entered into a consent order with the EPA to remediate the site. It is currently estimated that the total remediation costs to be borne by all of the responsible parties will not exceed $30.0 million. Allegheny has an
accrued liability representing its estimated share of the remediation costs as of September 30, 2005.



Claims Related to Alleged Asbestos Exposure: The Distribution Companies have been named as defendants, along with multiple other defendants,
in pending asbestos cases alleging bodily injury involving multiple plaintiffs and multiple sites. These suits have been brought mostly by seasonal contractors employees and do not involve allegations of either the manufacture, sale or
distribution of asbestos-containing products by Allegheny. These asbestos suits arise out of historical operations and are related to the installation and removal of asbestos-containing materials at Alleghenys generation facilities.
Alleghenys historical operations were insured by various foreign and domestic insurers, including Lloyds of London. Asbestos-related litigation expenses have to date been reimbursed in full by recoveries from these historical insurers,
and Allegheny believes that it has sufficient insurance to respond fully to the asbestos suits. Certain insurers, however, have contested their obligations to pay for the future defense and settlement costs relating to the asbestos suits. Allegheny
is currently involved in two asbestos insurance-related actions, Certain Underwriters at Lloyds, London et al. v. Allegheny Energy, Inc. et al., Case No. 21-C-03-16733 (Washington County, Md.), and Monongahela Power Company et
al. v. Certain Underwriters at Lloyds London and London Market Companies, et al., Civil Action No. 03-C-281 (Monongalia County, W.Va.). The parties in these actions are seeking an allocation of responsibility for historic and
potential future asbestos liability. Allegheny and numerous others are plaintiffs in a similar action filed against Zurich Insurance Company in California, Fuller-Austin Asbestos Settlement Trust, et al. v. Zurich-American Insurance Co., et al.,Case No. CGC 04 431719 (Superior Court of California, County of San Francisco).

In connection with a settlement, Allegheny received payment from one of its insurance companies in
the amount of $625,000 on July 5, 2005, with the next payment of $625,000 due July 1, 2006. As part of the settlement, Allegheny released this insurance company from potential liabilities associated with claims against Allegheny alleging
asbestos exposure.



Allegheny does not believe that the
existence or pendency of either the asbestos suits or the actions involving its insurance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Allegheny believes that it has established adequate
reserves, net of insurance receivables and recoveries, to cover existing and future asbestos claims. As of October 12, 2005, Allegheny had 836 open cases remaining in West Virginia, and five in Pennsylvania.



Allegheny intends to vigorously defend against these actions but cannot
predict their outcomes.



Canadian Toxic-Tort Class
Action:On June 30, 2005, AE Supply, Monongahela and AGC, along with 18 other companies with coal-fired generating plants, were named as defendants in a toxic-tort, purported class action lawsuit filed in the Ontario Superior Court of
Justice. On behalf of a purported class comprised of all persons residing in Ontario within the past six years (and/or their family members or heirs), the named plaintiffs allege that the defendants negligently failed to prevent their plants from
emitting air pollutants in such a manner as to cause death and multiple adverse health effects, as well as economic damages, to the plaintiff class. The plaintiffs seek damages in the approximate amount of Canadian $49.1 billion (approximately US
$41.6 billion, assuming an exchange rate of 1.18 Canadian dollars per US dollar), along with continuing damages in the amount of Canadian $4.1 billion per year and punitive damages of Canadian $1.0 billion (approximately US $3.5 billion and US $850
million, respectively, assuming an exchange rate of 1.18 Canadian dollars per US dollar) along with such other relief as the court deems just. Allegheny has not yet been served with this lawsuit. Allegheny intends to vigorously defend against this
action but cannot predict its outcome.



Ordinary Course
of Business: Monongahela is from time to time involved in litigation and other legal disputes in the ordinary course of business. Monongahela is of the belief that there are no other legal proceedings that could have a material adverse
effect on its business or financial condition.



NOTE 11: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS



On
October 17, 2005, Monongahela issued $70.0 million of 5.375% First Mortgage Bonds due 2015. Monongahela intends to utilize the proceeds to redeem its $70.0 million of outstanding 75/8% First Mortgage Bonds due May 2025 on November 19, 2005.



On October 31, 2005, Monongahela fully redeemed its $50.0 million of outstanding $7.73, Series L ($100 par value)
Cumulative Preferred Stock. Monongahela paid accrued and unpaid dividends of approximately $1.0 million.

THE POTOMAC EDISON COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)



NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION



The Potomac Edison Company, together with its consolidated subsidiaries (Potomac Edison), is a regulated wholly owned subsidiary of Allegheny Energy, Inc. (AE, and together with its consolidated subsidiaries,
Allegheny). Potomac Edison, along with its regulated utility affiliates, Monongahela Power Company (Monongahela) and West Penn Power Company, collectively doing business as Allegheny Power, operates electric transmission and
distribution (T&D) systems. Potomac Edison operates an electric T&D system in Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia. Potomac Edison currently operates under a single business segment, Delivery and Services.



Potomac Edison is subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC), the Maryland Public Service Commission, the Public Service Commission of West Virginia, the Virginia State Corporation Commission and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).



Potomac Edison is subject to regulation by the SEC under the Public Utility
Holding Company Act of 1935 (PUHCA). Currently, PUHCA imposes financial and operational conditions and restrictions on many aspects of Potomac Edisons business. For example, PUHCA requires pre-approval from the SEC for, among other
things, the issuance of debt or equity securities and for the sale or acquisition of utility assets. On August 8, 2005, the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (the Energy Policy Act) was enacted. The Energy Policy Act provides for the repeal
of PUHCA effective February 2006. Following PUHCAs repeal, Potomac Edison will continue to be subject to substantial regulation, including increased authority of FERC. The Energy Policy Act provides FERC additional jurisdiction over utility
mergers, acquisitions and certain asset transfers. FERC has issued notices of proposed rulemaking related to the implementation of the Energy Policy Act. Potomac Edison is assessing the impact this legislation and FERCs proposed rules will
have on its operations.



Allegheny Energy Service Corporation
(AESC) is a wholly owned subsidiary of AE that employs all of the people who are employed by Allegheny. On September 19, 2005, AE entered into a Professional Services Agreement (the PSA) with Electronic Data Systems
Corporation (EDS) and EDS Information Services, L.L.C. (EIS, together with EDS, the Service Provider). On November 1, 2005, the Service Provider assumed responsibility for many of Alleghenys information
technology functions and the coordination and installation of an enterprise resource planning system. Unless extended by AE, the PSA will expire on December 31, 2012. Most of the AESC employees performing Alleghenys information technology
functions were offered employment with EDS.



The accompanying
unaudited interim financial statements of Potomac Edison should be read in conjunction with the Combined Annual Report on Form 10-K of AE, Monongahela, Potomac Edison and Allegheny Generating Company (AGC) for the year ended
December 31, 2004 (the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K).



The interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by Potomac Edison, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading.



In the opinion of
management, the unaudited interim financial statements included herein reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and
2004, cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 and financial position at September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004. Because of the seasonal nature of Potomac Edisons utility operations, results for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2005. For more information on the seasonal nature of Alleghenys utility operations, see
Part I, Item 1, Risk Factors, Other Risk Factors Associated with Our Business, in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.



Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the financial statement presentation for the current period.



Federal and State Income Taxes. Allegheny allocates income tax expense
(benefit) to its subsidiaries pursuant to its consolidated tax sharing agreement. This corporate allocation may cause significant fluctuations in the effective quarterly and year to date tax rates from the statutory rates for certain of
Alleghenys subsidiaries,

depending on the level of pre-tax income. Income tax expense (benefit) differs from an amount calculated at the
federal statutory income tax rate of 35%, principally due to state income taxes, consolidated tax savings, tax credits, the effects of utility rate-making and certain non-deductible expenses, as well as an additional tax benefit recorded during the
second quarter of 2005, which is described below.



During the
second quarter of 2005, Allegheny determined that it had not claimed certain income tax deductions in its 2003 income tax returns relating to commodity trading contracts. Allegheny plans to file amended 2003 federal and state income tax returns to
claim these additional deductions, which will increase Potomac Edisons allocated share of net consolidated tax savings. Accordingly, Potomac Edison recorded a tax benefit of $0.5 million during the second quarter of 2005 to recognize the
additional tax savings.



NOTE 2: DEBT



On August 15,
2005, Potomac Edison issued $145 million of 5.125% First Mortgage Bonds due 2015. Approximately $143 million of the proceeds, together with available cash, was used to redeem Potomac Edisons $65 million of outstanding 7.75% First Mortgage
Bonds due 2025 and its $80 million of outstanding 7.625% First Mortgage Bonds due 2025.



As of September 30, 2005, contractual maturities of long-term debt for the remainder of 2005 and for full years thereafter, excluding unamortized discounts of $1.5 million, were as follows:

Potomac Edison recorded AROs related to underground and aboveground storage tanks. Potomac Edison also has identified a number of AROs associated with certain of its transmission assets that have not been recorded,
because the fair value of these obligations cannot be reasonably estimated, primarily due to the indeterminate lives of the assets.

(unaudited)



Potomac Edisons ARO balances were $0.2 million at September 30, 2005 and December 31,
2004.



Estimated removal costs of $168.3 million and $162.3
million at September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively, that are not qualified as AROs are being recovered through the ratemaking process. These amounts are shown as regulatory liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.



In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47
(FIN 47), Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, which will require entities with an ARO that is conditional on a future event to record the ARO, even if the event has not yet occurred and uncertainty exists
as to the timing and method of settlement. This interpretation is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. Obligations recorded as a result of the adoption of FIN 47 will be presented as a cumulative effect due to a change in
accounting principle. Potomac Edison currently is evaluating the impact of FIN 47.



NOTE 6: PENSION BENEFITS AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS



Potomac Edison is responsible for its proportionate share of the net periodic cost for pension benefits and postretirement benefits other than pensions
(principally health care and life insurance) for employees and covered dependents provided by Allegheny, through AESC. Potomac Edisons share of the costs was as follows:

NOTE 8: VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES



Potomac Edison has a long-term electricity purchase contract with an unrelated independent power producer (IPP) that represents a variable interest under FASBs Interpretation No. 46 (Revised December 2003)
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46R). Potomac Edison has been unable to obtain certain information from the IPP necessary to determine if the variable interest entity (VIE) should be consolidated
under FIN 46R.



Potomac Edison had power purchases from this
IPP in the amount of $26.7 million and $25.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Potomac Edison had power purchases from this IPP in the amount of $79.3 million and $70.3 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Potomac Edison recovers the full amount of the cost of the applicable power contract in its rates charged to consumers. Potomac Edison is not subject to any risk of loss associated with the VIE,
because it does not have any obligation to the IPP other than to purchase the power that the IPP produces according to the terms of the applicable electricity purchase contract.

NOTE 9: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES



Reference is made to Item 8, Note 27, Commitments and Contingencies, in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.



Environmental Matters and Litigation



Allegheny is subject to various laws, regulations and uncertainties as to environmental matters. Compliance may require Allegheny to incur substantial
additional costs to modify or replace existing and proposed equipment and facilities that may adversely affect the cost of future operations.



Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA) Claim: On March 4, 1994, Potomac
Edison and certain affiliated companies received notice that the EPA had identified them as potentially responsible parties (PRPs) with respect to the Jacks Creek/Sitkin Smelting Superfund Site in Pennsylvania. Initially,
approximately 175 PRPs were involved; however, the current number of active PRPs has been reduced as a result of settlements with de minimis contributors and other contributors to the site. The costs of remediation will be shared by all past and
active responsible parties. In 1999, a PRP group that included Potomac Edison and certain affiliated companies entered into a consent order with the EPA to remediate the site. It is currently estimated that the total remediation costs to be borne by
all of the responsible parties will not exceed $30.0 million. Allegheny has an accrued liability representing its estimated share of the remediation costs as of September 30, 2005.



Claims Related to Alleged Asbestos Exposure: The Distribution Companies have been named as defendants, along
with multiple other defendants, in pending asbestos cases alleging bodily injury involving multiple plaintiffs and multiple sites. These suits have been brought mostly by seasonal contractors employees and do not involve allegations of either
the manufacture, sale or distribution of asbestos-containing products by Allegheny. These asbestos suits arise out of historical operations and are related to the installation and removal of asbestos-containing materials at Alleghenys
generation facilities. Alleghenys historical operations were insured by various foreign and domestic insurers, including Lloyds of London. Asbestos-related litigation expenses have to date been reimbursed in full by recoveries from these
historical insurers, and Allegheny believes that it has sufficient insurance to respond fully to the asbestos suits. Certain insurers, however, have contested their obligations to pay for the future defense and settlement costs relating to the
asbestos suits. Allegheny is currently involved in two asbestos insurance-related actions, Certain Underwriters at Lloyds, London et al. v. Allegheny Energy, Inc. et al., Case No. 21-C-03-16733 (Washington County, Md.), and
Monongahela Power Company et al. v. Certain Underwriters at Lloyds London and London Market Companies, et al., Civil Action No. 03-C-281 (Monongalia County, W.Va.). The parties in these actions are seeking an allocation of
responsibility for historic and potential future asbestos liability. Allegheny and numerous others are plaintiffs in a similar action filed against Zurich Insurance Company in California, Fuller-Austin Asbestos Settlement Trust, et al. v.
Zurich-American Insurance Co., et al.,Case No. CGC 04 431719 (Superior Court of California, County of San Francisco).



In connection with a settlement, Allegheny received payment from one of its insurance companies in the amount of $625,000 on July 5, 2005, with the
next payment of $625,000 due July 1, 2006. As part of the settlement, Allegheny released this insurance company from potential liabilities associated with claims against Allegheny alleging asbestos exposure.



Allegheny does not believe that the existence or pendency of either the
asbestos suits or the actions involving its insurance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Allegheny believes that it has established adequate reserves, net of insurance receivables
and recoveries, to cover existing and future asbestos claims. As of October 12, 2005, Allegheny had 836 open cases remaining in West Virginia, and five in Pennsylvania.



Allegheny intends to vigorously defend against these actions but cannot predict their outcomes.



Ordinary Course of Business: Potomac Edison is, from time to
time, involved in litigation and other legal disputes in the ordinary course of business. Potomac Edison is of the belief that there are no other legal proceedings that could have a material adverse effect on its business or financial condition.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION



Allegheny Energy Supply Company, LLC (AE Supply) and Monongahela Power Company (Monongahela and together with AE Supply, the Parents), own 100% of Allegheny Generating Company (AGC). AE Supply
owns 77.03% and Monongahela owns 22.97% of AGC. AGC owns an undivided 40% interest (1,010 megawatts (MW)) in the 2,525 MW pumped storage, hydroelectric station in Bath County, Virginia, operated by the 60% owner, Virginia Electric and
Power Company, a nonaffiliated utility. AGC sells its generation capacity to its Parents. AGC operates under a single business segment, Generation and Marketing.



AGC is subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Virginia State Corporation
Commission and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).



AGC is subject to regulation by the SEC under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 (PUHCA). Currently, PUHCA imposes financial and operational conditions and restrictions on many aspects of
AGCs business. For example, PUHCA requires pre-approval from the SEC for, among other things, the issuance of debt or equity securities and for the sale or acquisition of utility assets. On August 8, 2005, the Energy Policy Act of 2005
(the Energy Policy Act) was enacted. The Energy Policy Act provides for the repeal of PUHCA effective February 2006. Following PUHCAs repeal, AGC will continue to be subject to substantial regulation, including increased authority
of FERC. The Energy Policy Act provides FERC additional jurisdiction over utility mergers, acquisitions and certain asset transfers. FERC has issued notices of proposed rulemaking related to the implementation of the Energy Policy Act. AGC is
assessing the impact this legislation and FERCs proposed rules will have on its operations.



Allegheny Energy Service Corporation (AESC) is a wholly owned subsidiary of AE that employs all of the people who are employed by Allegheny.
On September 19, 2005, AE entered into a Professional Services Agreement (the PSA) with Electronic Data Systems Corporation (EDS) and EDS Information Services, L.L.C. (EIS, together with EDS, the
Service Provider). On November 1, 2005, the Service Provider assumed responsibility for many of Alleghenys information technology functions and the coordination and installation of an enterprise resource planning system.
Unless extended by AE, the PSA will expire on December 31, 2012. Most of the AESC employees performing Alleghenys information technology functions were offered employment with EDS.



The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of AGC should be read
in conjunction with the Combined Annual Report on the combined 2004 Form 10-K of AE, Monongahela, Potomac Edison and AGC for the year ended December 31, 2004 (the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K).



The interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by
Allegheny Generating Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.



In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements
included herein reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, cash flows for the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 and 2004 and financial position at September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004.



Federal and State Income Taxes. Allegheny allocates income tax expense (benefit) to its subsidiaries pursuant to its consolidated tax sharing
agreement. This corporate allocation may cause significant fluctuations in the effective quarterly and year to date tax rates from the statutory rates for certain of Alleghenys subsidiaries, depending on the level of pre-tax income.



Income tax expense differs from an amount calculated at the
federal statutory rate of 35%, principally due to allocation of consolidated tax savings, state income taxes, tax credits, the effects of utility rate-making and certain non-deductible expenses.

for intangible assets was not material for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004.



Annual amortization expense for 2005 through 2009 is not expected to be material.



NOTE 4: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES



Reference is made to Item 8, Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies, in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.



Canadian Toxic-Tort Class Action



On June 30, 2005, AE Supply, Monongahela and AGC, along with 18 other companies with coal-fired generating plants, were named as defendants in a
toxic-tort, purported class action lawsuit filed in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. On behalf of a purported class comprised of all persons residing in Ontario within the past six years (and/or their family members or heirs), the named
plaintiffs allege that the defendants negligently failed to prevent their plants from emitting air pollutants in such a manner as to cause death and multiple adverse health effects, as well as economic damages, to the plaintiff class. The plaintiffs
seek damages in the approximate amount of Canadian $49.1 billion (approximately US $41.6 billion, assuming an exchange rate of 1.18 Canadian dollars per US dollar), along with continuing damages in the amount of Canadian $4.1 billion per year and
punitive damages of Canadian $1.0 billion (approximately US $3.5 billion and US $850 million, respectively, assuming an exchange rate of 1.18 Canadian dollars per US dollar) along with such other relief as the court deems just. Allegheny has not yet
been served with this lawsuit. Allegheny intends to vigorously defend against this action but cannot predict its outcome.



Ordinary Course of Business



AGC is, from time to time, involved in litigation and other legal disputes in the ordinary course of business. AGC is of the belief that there are no
other legal proceedings that could have a material effect on its business or financial condition.

ALLEGHENY ENERGY, INC.CONSOLIDATED RESULTS



This section is an overview of AEs consolidated results of operations.
A more detailed discussion of the results of operations for each business segment follows this consolidated overview.



Operating Revenues



Operating revenues increased $121.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to the three months ended September 30,
2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | increased revenues associated with the sale of generation into PJM at market prices. This generation was previously sold at below-market prices to serve commercial and
industrial PLR customers in Maryland,
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increased MWhs generated and
| | - |  | ----------------------------



| |  |  | increased revenues resulting from increases in residential and commercial revenues due to customer growth, increased customer usage as a result of a 55.1% increase in cooling
degree-days and the implementation of market-based rates for Maryland commercial and industrial customers.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Operating revenues increased $246.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended September 30,
2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | increased net PJM revenues due to unplanned outages during 2004 at Hatfields Ferry Unit No. 2 and Pleasants Unit No. 1,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increased revenues associated with the sale of generation into PJM at market prices. This generation was previously sold at below-market prices to serve commercial and industrial
PLR customers in Maryland,
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increased MWhs generated and
| | - |  | ----------------------------



| |  |  | increased revenues resulting from increases in residential and commercial revenues due to customer growth, increased customer usage as a result of a 35.7% increase in cooling
degree-days and the implementation of market-based rates for Maryland commercial and industrial customers.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Operating Income



Operating income increased $11.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2004,
due to:



| |  |  | a $121.7 million increase in operating revenues,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | offset by a $109.8 million increase in operating expenses.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------



For the three months ended September 30, 2005, operating expenses increased primarily as a result of a $30.5 million impairment charge recorded on
Ohio T&D assets and increases in fuel consumed in electric generation and purchased power and transmission expense, partially offset by decreases in operations and maintenance expense. Fuel consumed in electric generation increased due to
increased coal prices and an increase in MWhs generated at Alleghenys coal-fired plants. Purchased power and transmission expense increased as a result of the commencement in 2005 of market-based purchases to serve commercial and industrial
customers in Maryland, increased prices to serve commercial and industrial customers in Ohio and increased MWhs purchased to service PLR load. Operation and maintenance expense decreased in part due to decreased contract work, primarily due to the
receipt of insurance recoveries related to Hatfields Ferry Unit No. 2. Decreased insurance expense as a result of reduced claims and decreased uncollectible expense as a result of improved collections also contributed to the decrease in
operations and maintenance expense.

##### Table of Contents

Operating income increased $105.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared
to the nine months ended September 30, 2004, due to:



| |  |  | a $246.1 million increase in operating revenues,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | offset by a $141.0 million increase in operating expenses.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------



For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, operating expenses increased primarily as a result of a $30.5 million impairment charge recorded on
Ohio T&D assets and increases in fuel consumed in electric generation and purchased power and transmission expense, partially offset by decreases in operations and maintenance expense. Fuel consumed in electric generation increased due to
increased coal prices, and an increase in MWhs generated at Alleghenys coal-fired plants. Purchased power and transmission expense increased as a result of the commencement in 2005 of market-based purchase contracts for large commercial and
industrial customers in Maryland, increased prices to serve commercial and industrial customers in Ohio and increased MWhs purchased to service PLR load. In addition, the qualifying of certain contracts as normal purchase normal sale contracts also
contributed to the increase in purchased power and transmission expense. Operation and maintenance expense decreased in part due to decreased contract work, primarily due to the receipt of insurance recoveries related to Hatfields Ferry Unit
No. 2. Decreased insurance expense as a result of reduced claims and decreased uncollectible expense as a result of improved collections also contributed to the decrease in operations and maintenance expense.



Continuing Operations



Income from continuing operations decreased $7.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to
the three months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | a $21.8 million increase in interest expense and preferred dividends,
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | partially offset by an $11.9 million increase in operating income and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $4.7 million decrease in income tax expense.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------



For the three months ended September 30, 2005, interest expense and preferred dividends increased primarily due to the premium and associated costs
to redeem AE Supplys outstanding 10.25% and 13% Senior Notes. Other income and expenses, net, increased primarily due to increased interest income on investments.



Income from continuing operations increased $23.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to
the nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | a $105.1 million increase in operating income and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an $18.2 million increase in other income and expenses, net,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | partially offset by a $65.0 million increase in interest expense and preferred dividends and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $29.4 million increase in income tax expense.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------



For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, other income and expenses, net, increased, primarily as a result of $11.2 million in cash received from
a former trading executives forfeited assets and increased interest income on investments. Interest expenses increased primarily due to the premium and associated costs to redeem AE Supplys outstanding 10.25% and 13% Senior Notes,
interest recorded in connection with a court decision in the litigation involving Merrill Lynch and interest related to the April 2005 tender offer by AE and Capital Trust for Capital Trusts outstanding Trust Preferred Securities, partially
offset by lower interest rates and a reduction in average debt outstanding.

Income Tax Expense



Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2005 was lower than the tax expense calculated at the federal statutory tax rate,
primarily due to a $3.8 million benefit resulting from the issuance by a subsidiary of West Penn of $115 million in Series 2005-A Transition Bonds, as described in Note 1 Basis of Presentation, to the Consolidated Financial Statements.



Income tax expense for the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 were higher than tax expense calculated at the federal statutory tax rate, primarily due to:



| |  |  | a $3.8 million charge to adjust state deferred income tax assets relating to 2003, as described in Note 1, Basis of Presentation, to the Consolidated Financial
Statements and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $1.9 million charge to adjust state deferred income tax assets resulting from the change in Ohio tax law, as described in Note 1, Basis of Presentation, to the
Consolidated Financial Statements,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | partially offset by a $3.8 million benefit resulting from the issuance by a subsidiary of West Penn of $115 million in 4.46% Transition Bonds, Series 2005-A and state income taxes,
tax credits, the effects of utility rate-making and certain non-deductible expenses.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Discontinued Operations



Allegheny recorded losses from discontinued operations of $7.7 million and $427.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and $11.8 million and $431.5 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, related to agreements to sell, or decisions to sell, certain non-core assets.



The $419.8 million and $419.7 million decreases in losses from discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 as
compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 were primarily due to approximately $425 million of net impairment charges recorded during the third quarter of 2004.

|* | The operations of the Distribution Companies are weather sensitive. Weather conditions directly influence the volume of electricity delivered by the Distribution Companies but
represent only one of several factors that impact the volume of electricity. Degree-day data is used to estimate amounts of energy required to maintain comfortable indoor temperature levels based on each days average temperature. Heating
degree-days is the measure of the variation in the weather based on the extent to which the average daily temperature falls below 65° Fahrenheit, and cooling degree-days is the measure of the variation in the weather based on the extent to which
the average daily temperature rises above 65° Fahrenheit. Each degree of temperature above 65° Fahrenheit is counted as one cooling degree-day, and each degree of temperature below 65° Fahrenheit is counted as one heating degree-day.

Operating revenues
increased $41.7 million and $64.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively, as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004. These increases were primarily due to increased retail
electric revenues, partially offset by decreased transmission services and bulk power revenues.



Retail electric revenues increased $48.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended
September 30, 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | an $8.9 million increase as a result of a 1.4% growth in customers,
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $24.4 million increase as a result of the 55.1% increase in cooling degree-days, partially offset by reduced industrial and commercial usage resulting from the switch by certain
customers to alternative service providers and

| |  |  | partially offset by an aggregate $2.2 million decrease related to the price and volume mix of MWhs sold to customers.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Commercial and industrial revenues increased in the aggregate as a result of
market-based pricing for the generation component of rates in Maryland and a 6.5% increase in commercial MWhs sold. Commercial MWhs sold increased due to a 1.9% increase in the average number of customers and increased customer usage. These
increases were partially offset by reduced PLR revenues that resulted from the switch by certain commercial and industrial customers to alternative service providers for their electricity generation requirements.



Retail electric revenues increased $74.7 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | a $26.6 million increase as a result of a 1.3% growth in customers,
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $3.3 million increase as a result of the 35.7% increase in cooling degree-days, partially offset by reduced industrial and commercial usage resulting from the switch by certain
customers to alternative service providers,

Operating Expenses



Purchased Power and Transmission: Purchased power and
transmission represents the Distribution Companies power purchases from, and exchanges with, other companies (primarily AE Supply) as well as purchases from qualified facilities under PURPA. Purchased power and transmission consists of the
following items:

Other purchased power
primarily consists of the Distribution Companies purchases of energy from AE Supply. The Distribution Companies have long-term power purchase agreements with AE Supply, under which AE Supply provides the Distribution Companies with the
majority of the power necessary to meet their PLR obligations. These agreements have both fixed-price and market-based pricing components. The amount of power purchased under these agreements that is subject to the market-based pricing component
increases each year through the applicable transition period. The transition period for large commercial and industrial customers in Maryland has ended. As of January 1, 2005, Potomac Edison is purchasing power at market prices from AE Supply
and other nonaffiliated companies to satisfy these customer obligations in Maryland, respectively.



Other purchased power and transmission increased by $40.1 million and $62.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005,
respectively, as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to increased purchased power expense at Monongahela and Potomac Edison related to market purchases for certain customers in Ohio and Maryland.



Purchased power from PURPA generation increased $1.4 million
and $7.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively, as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to increased purchased generation from the AES Warrior Run PURPA
generation facility, because it was dispatched at a greater amount during 2005, as compared to the same periods in 2004.



Impairment Charge on Ohio T&D Assets: The Delivery and Services segment recorded an impairment charge in connection with the anticipated
sale of Monongahelas Ohio T&D assets during the three months ended September 30, 2005 of $30.5 million. The impairment charge was recorded based on the estimated value, at September 30, 2005, of Monongahelas power sales
agreement with Columbus Southern Power Company to provide power at below-market prices from the time of closing through May 31, 2007, partially offset by approximately $8.0 million, representing the purchase price less the estimated net book
value of the assets at the time of closing and approximately $2.0 million in expenses associated with the sale.

Deferred energy costs,
net, are primarily related to the recovery of net costs associated with purchases from the AES Warrior Run PURPA generation facility and the deferral of market-based generation costs.



To satisfy its obligations under PURPA, Allegheny, through its subsidiary, Potomac Edison, entered into a long-term contract
to purchase capacity and energy from the AES Warrior Run PURPA generation facility through the beginning of 2030. Potomac Edison is authorized by the Maryland PSC to recover all contract costs from the AES Warrior Run PURPA generation facility, net
of any revenues received from the sale of AES Warrior Run output into the wholesale energy market, by means of a retail revenue surcharge (the AES Warrior Run Surcharge). Any under-recovery or over-recovery of net costs is being deferred
on Potomac Edisons Consolidated Balance Sheets as deferred energy costs, pending subsequent recovery from, or return to, customers through adjustments to the AES Warrior Run Surcharge. Because the AES Warrior Run Surcharge represents a
dollar-for-dollar recovery of net contract costs, AES Warrior Run Surcharge revenues or revenues from sales of AES Warrior Run output do not impact Potomac Edisons net income. Effective January 1, 2005, Allegheny sells all of the output
it purchases from the AES Warrior Run facility to a non-affiliated third party, through a competitive bidding process approved by the Maryland PSC. During 2004 the output purchased from the AES Warrior Run facility was sold to AE Supply.

Operations and
maintenance expenses primarily include salaries and wages, employee benefits, materials and supplies, contract work, outside services and other expenses.



Operations and maintenance expenses increased $7.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended
September 30, 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | approximately $15 million of litigation accruals associated with the LTI arbitration,
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in salaries and wages,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $2.2 million decrease in uncollectible expense and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $2.7 million decrease in cost of goods sold related to unregulated businesses.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The decrease in salaries and wages was a result of decreases in the number of employees and severance costs. The decrease in
uncollectible expense was a result of improved collections, an increase in the amount and use of security deposits and the reduction of the number of customers on, and the amount of, payment agreements. The decrease in cost of goods sold was due to
reductions in equipment procurement and subcontracting costs associated with Allegheny Energy Solutions engineering and construction project for SMEPA, as well as the sale of an unregulated business in 2005.



Operations and maintenance expenses decreased $12.9 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | a $3.0 million decrease in salaries and wages,

| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | partially offset by approximately $15 million of litigation accruals associated with the LTI arbitration.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The decrease in salaries and wages was a result of decreases in the number of employees and severance costs. The decrease in
contract work and outside services was a result of a reduction in the use of outside consultants. The decrease in uncollectible expense was a result of improved collections, increased use of security deposits and the reduction of the number of
customers on, and the amount of, payment agreements. The decrease in cost of goods sold materials expense was due to reductions in equipment procurement and subcontracting costs associated with Allegheny Energy Solutions engineering and
construction project for SMEPA. The decrease in insurance expense resulted from a decrease in the amount of claims and premiums.

Operating revenues increased by $78.8 million and $157.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively, as compared to
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004. These increases were primarily due to increased wholesale and other revenue, net.



Revenue from affiliates: Revenue from affiliates results primarily from the sale of power to the Distribution Companies.



AE Supply has multiple long-term power sales agreements with the Distribution
Companies under which AE Supply provides the Distribution Companies with a majority of the power necessary to meet their PLR obligations. These agreements have both fixed-price and market-based pricing components. The amount of power purchased under
certain of these agreements that is subject to the market-based pricing component increases each year through the applicable transition period. Monongahelas West Virginia generation facilities also provide power to Monongahelas Delivery
and Services segment to meet its regulated load obligations.

The average rate at which the Generation and Marketing segment sold power to the Distribution Companies
was $32.32 and $32.33 per MWh for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and $32.91 and $32.34 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.



Revenue from affiliates increased $10.7 million and $10.0 million for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | increases of $12.3 million and $34.0 million in affiliated bulk power revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, as a result of the expiration in December
2004 of an affiliated contract with Potomac Edison for the purchase of output related to AES Warrior Run PURPA generation facility, which reduced revenue in 2004 as a result of accounting for derivatives and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | additional power sales to Monongahelas Delivery and Services segment to satisfy load requirements in West Virginia that were previously obtained from a third party,
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | partially offset by decreased sales volumes as a result of power sales in Maryland and Ohio, which were previously provided by the Generation and Marketing segment to the Delivery
and Services segment and now are being provided by nonaffiliated suppliers, and the switch by certain customers in Maryland to alternate service providers, both beginning January 1, 2005.

|* | Does not include $12.3 million and $34.0 million in losses on a contract with an affiliate that were included in affiliated revenues for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2004, respectively. This contract expired on December 31, 2004 and was not renewed. The net trading gains, including this affiliated transaction, were $2.5 million and $7.4 million for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2004, respectively.

##### Table of Contents

The increase in net PJM revenues is due to higher generation revenues relative to the cost to serve the
PLR load. During the three months ended September 30, 2005, the weighted average round-the-clock price for power in Alleghenys region of PJM, the APS Zone of the PJM market, was approximately $71 per MWh, which represents an
increase of approximately 83% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2004. Also during the three months ended September 30, 2005, total MWhs generated increased by 5.7% as compared to the three months ended September 30,
2004. This increase in total MWhs generated was due to increased average market prices and increased availability of Alleghenys coal-fired plants. In addition, power purchased from PJM increased due to higher average market prices partially
offset by lower MWhs as a result of no longer serving certain customer classes, primarily Potomac Edisons commercial and industrial customers that have transitioned to market-based pricing. The Generation and Marketing segment also did not
serve a portion of Monongahelas Ohio customers, effective January 1, 2005.



Net losses from trading activities increased due to the expiration on December 31, 2004 of the AES Warrior Run contract, which had non-affiliated revenues of $12.1 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2004, and trading losses from the settlement of legacy trading contracts that were designated as cash flow hedges effective July 1, 2004.



Wholesale and other revenues increased $147.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the
nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | a $234.7 million increase in net PJM revenues,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | partially offset by $65.4 million associated with the sale of the CDWR contract and related hedge transactions that were recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2004
net of $2.7 million related to the resolution during the three months ended September 30, 2005 of the Millar litigation, which potentially implicated a guarantee to J. Aron & Company arising out of the sale of the CDWR contract and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $41.0 million decrease in gains from trading activities.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------



The increase in net PJM revenues is due to both higher generation revenues relative to the cost to serve the PLR load. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2005, the weighted average round-the-clock price for power in Alleghenys region of PJM, the APS Zone of the PJM market, was approximately $54 per MWh, which represents an increase of approximately 30% as compared
to the nine months ended September 30, 2004. Also during the nine months ended September 30, 2005, total MWhs generated increased by 4.7% as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004. This increase in total MWhs generated
was due to increased average market prices and increased availability of Alleghenys coal-fired plants as a result of the return to service of Hatfields Ferry Unit No. 2 and Pleasants Unit No. 1 in June 2004. In addition, power
purchased from PJM increased due to higher average market prices partially offset by lower MWhs as a result of no longer serving certain customer classes, primarily Potomac Edisons commercial and industrial customers that have transitioned to
market. The Generation and Marketing segment also did not serve a portion of Monongahelas Ohio customers, effective January 1, 2005.



Net gains from trading activities decreased due to the expiration on December 31, 2004 of the AES Warrior Run contract, which had non-affiliated
revenues of $39.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004.



Fair Value of Contracts: AE Supply is currently qualifying certain of its new contracts under the normal purchase and normal sale scope exception under SFAS No. 133. As a result, AE
accounts for these contracts on the accrual method, rather than marking these contracts to market value. AE uses derivative accounting for contracts that do not qualify under the scope exception. These contracts are recorded at fair value in the
Consolidated Balance Sheets. The realized and unrealized revenues from energy trading activities are recorded on a net basis in Operating revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force
Issue No. 02-3, Recognition and Reporting Gains and Losses on Energy Trading Contracts. The fair value of the remaining trading portfolio consists primarily of interest rate swap agreements and commodity cash flow hedges as of
September 30, 2005.



The fair values of trading contracts,
which represent the net unrealized gain and loss on open positions, are recorded as assets and liabilities, after applying the appropriate counterparty netting agreements in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 39, Offsetting of
Amounts Related to Certain Contractsan Interpretation of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 10 and FASB Statement No. 105. At September 30, 2005, the fair values of trading contract assets and liabilities were $13.5
million and $134.3 million, respectively. At December 31, 2004, the fair values of trading contract assets and liabilities were $17.2 million and $97.3 million, respectively.

Approximately $1.2
million of AE Supplys contracts were classified as prices based on models, even though a portion of these contracts is valued based on observable market prices.



The fair value of AE Supplys contracts that are scheduled to settle by December 31, 2005 was a net liability of
$8.5 million, primarily related to interest rate swaps and commodity cash flow hedges.



See Note 6, Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.



Changes in Fair Value: Net unrealized gains of $4.9 million and $18.2 million for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2005, respectively, were recorded on the Consolidated Statements of Operations in Operating revenues to reflect the change in fair value of the trading contracts. The following table provides a summary of charges in
the net fair value, or trading contract assets less trading contract liabilities, of AE Supplys trading contracts:

As shown in the table
above, the net fair value of AE Supplys trading contracts decreased by $38.6 million and $40.7 million, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively. The decreases in the fair values for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2005 was primarily due to changes in the fair values of cash flow hedges, partially offset by settlements on interest rate and commodity contracts.



There has been, and may continue to be, significant volatility in the market prices for electricity and natural gas at the
wholesale level, which will affect AE Supplys operating results and cash flows. Similarly, volatility in interest rates will affect AE Supplys operating results and cash flows.

MONONGAHELA POWER COMPANYCONSOLIDATED RESULTS



This section is an overview of Monongahelas consolidated results of
operations, which are discussed in greater detail for each segment in Monongahela Power CompanyDiscussion of Segment Results of Operations below.



Operating Revenues



Operating revenues increased $49.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to the three months ended September 30,
2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | increased revenues resulting from increases in residential and commercial customer sales and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increased net PJM revenues resulting from increased market prices and increased MWhs generated. MWhs generated increased as a result of higher market prices and the timing of
planned outages. These increases were partially offset by increased power purchased from PJM to service commercial and industrial customers in Ohio.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Operating revenues increased $73.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | increased net PJM revenues as compared to the prior year, during which unplanned outages at Hatfields Ferry Unit No. 2 and Pleasants Unit No. 1 occurred,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increased revenues resulting from increases in residential and commercial customer sales, and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increased net PJM revenues resulting from increased market prices and increased MWhs generated. MWhs generated increased as a result of higher market prices and the timing of
planned outages. These increases were partially offset by increased power purchased from PJM to service commercial and industrial customers in Ohio.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Operating Income



Operating income decreased $15.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2004,
primarily due to:



| |  |  | a $64.8 million increase in total operating expenses,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | offset by a $49.2 million increase in total operating revenues.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------



Operating expenses increased primarily as a result of a $30.5 million impairment charge recorded on Ohio T&D assets and increases in fuel consumed in
electric generation and purchased power and transmission expenses. Fuel consumed in electric generation increased, primarily due to increased coal prices and an increase in MWhs generated at Monongahelas coal-fired plants. Purchased power and
transmission expense increased, primarily due to increases in the prices for purchased power from PJM for Monongahelas large commercial and industrial customers in Ohio.



Operating income decreased $3.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | a $76.5 million increase in operating expenses,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | offset by a $73.5 million increase in total operating revenues.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------



Operating expenses increased primarily as a result of a $30.5 million impairment charge recorded on Ohio T&D assets and increases in fuel consumed in
electric generation and purchased power and transmission expenses. These increases were partially offset by decreased operations and maintenance expenditures. Fuel consumed in electric generation increased, primarily due to increased coal prices and
an increase in MWhs generated at Monongahelas jointly-owned coal-fired plants. Purchased power and transmission expense increased, primarily due to congestion and increases in the prices for purchased power from PJM for

Monongahelas large commercial and industrial customers in Ohio. Operations and maintenance expense decreased
primarily due to decreased contract work and outside services expense as a result of the reduction in the use of outside consultants.



Income Tax Expense



Income tax expense (benefit) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 was higher than the income tax expense (benefit) calculated at
federal statutory tax rate, primarily due to:



| |  |  | the allocation of consolidated tax savings to Monongahela and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $4.3 million tax benefit relating to the amendment of 2003 income tax returns as described in Note 1, Basis of Presentation, to the financial statements.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Income tax expense (benefit) for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2004 varied from tax expense (benefit) calculated at the federal statutory tax rate, primarily due to the allocation of consolidated tax savings, state income tax and the effects of utility rate-making.



Discontinued Operations



Monongahela recorded losses from discontinued operations of $6.8 million and
$25.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and $2.4 million and $15.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, relating to Monongahelas natural gas
operations.



The $18.3 million decrease in loss from
discontinued operations for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2004 was primarily a result of impairment charges on Monongahelas West Virginia natural gas operations of $20.7
million, net of tax, which were recorded during the third quarter of 2004.



The $12.9 million decrease in loss from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004 was primarily a result of impairment
charges on Monongahelas West Virginia natural gas operations of $20.7 million, net of tax, recorded during the third quarter of 2004. Monongahela recorded impairment charges on its West Virginia natural gas operations of $9.4 million, net of

|* | The operations of the Distribution Companies are weather sensitive. Weather conditions directly influence the volume of electricity delivered by the Distribution Companies but
represent only one of several factors that impact the volume of electricity. Degree-day data is used to estimate amounts of energy required to maintain comfortable indoor temperature levels based on each days average temperature. Heating
degree-days is the measure of the variation in the weather based on the extent to which the average daily temperature falls below 65° Fahrenheit, and cooling degree-days is the measure of the variation in the weather based on the extent to which
the average daily temperature rises above 65° Fahrenheit. Each degree of temperature above 65° Fahrenheit is counted as one cooling degree-day, and each degree of temperature below 65° Fahrenheit is counted as one heating degree-day.

| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | partially offset by a $2.1 million decrease in industrial revenues.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------



Residential revenues increased due to a 16.3% increase in residential MWhs sold. Residential MWhs sold increased as a result of additional customer usage
due to a 74.9% increase in cooling degree-days and a 0.7% increase in the average number of customers.



Commercial revenues increased due to a 1.8% increase in the average number of customers and a 5.4% increase in commercial MWhs sold as a result of a 74.9%
increase in cooling degree-days.



Industrial revenues decreased
as a result of a 7.3% decrease in industrial MWhs sold as a result of decreased consumption by two large industrial customers.



Retail electric revenues increased $18.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended September 30,
2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | a $9.5 million increase in residential revenues,

Residential revenues increased due to a 4.9% increase in residential MWhs sold. Residential MWhs sold increased as a result of additional customer usage
due to a 54.6% increase in cooling degree-days and a 0.5% increase in the average number of customers.



Commercial revenues increased due to a 1.8% increase in the average number of customers and a 3.7% increase in commercial MWhs sold as a result of a 54.6%
increase in cooling degree-days.



Industrial revenues increased
as a result of the discontinuance of customer choice credits that were in effect in 2004 partially offset by a 3.1% decrease in industrial MWhs sold as a result of decreased consumption by two large industrial customers.



Transmission services and bulk power decreased $2.0 million and $5.2 million
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively, as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 primarily due to the expiration of certain transition credits that were associated with
Alleghenys entrance into the PJM regional transmission system.

Purchased power and
transmission expense increased $11.4 million and $19.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively, as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to increases in other
purchased power and transmission of $11.1 million and $19.3 million, respectively.



Other purchased power primarily consists of Monongahelas Delivery and Services segment purchases of energy from Monongahelas Generation and Marketing segment, as well as purchased power from PJM to meet
its PLR obligation.



Other purchased power increased $11.1
million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to a 5.9% increase in the price per MWh purchased. This increase in MWhs purchased was due to purchases of power
from PJM to meet the needs of Monongahelas large commercial and industrial customers in Ohio.



Other purchased power increased $19.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended September 30,
2004, primarily due to a 4.1% increase in the price per MWh purchased. This increase in MWhs purchased was due to purchases of power from PJM to meet the needs of Monongahelas large commercial and industrial customers in Ohio.



Impairment Charge on Ohio T&D Assets: The Delivery and
Services segment recorded an impairment charge in connection with the anticipated sale of Monongahelas Ohio T&D assets during the three months ended September 30, 2005 of $30.5 million. The impairment charge was recorded based on the
estimated value, at September 30, 2005, of Monongahelas agreement with Columbus Southern Power Company to deliver power at below-market prices from the time of closing through May 31, 2007, partially offset by approximately $8.0
million, representing the purchase price less the estimated net book value of the assets at the time of closing and approximately $2.0 million in expenses associated with the sale. Monongahela will record additional charges or credits as the value
of the purchase agreement increases or decreases up to the closing date of the sale. The sale is contingent upon certain closing conditions, third party consents and state and federal regulatory approvals. The sale is expected to close by the end of
2005.



Operations and Maintenance: Operations and
maintenance expenses for the Delivery and Services segment were as follows:



|                           |  |                                 |      |                                |   |      |  |      |      |  |   |

| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



Insurance expense decreased as a result of reduced claims and lower premiums. Uncollectible expense decreased due to improved accounts receivable
collections. Vehicle expense decreased due to a reduction in the number of vehicles in use.



Operations and maintenance expenses decreased $7.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | a $1.8 million decrease in contract work and outside services,

Revenues from
affiliates represent sales to Monongahelas Delivery and Services segment to meet PLR obligations and other energy net sales at market prices.



Revenues from affiliates decreased $14.3 million and $13.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively, as compared
to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, respectively, primarily due to a change in the allocation of revenues under an affiliated contract beginning January 2005. This decrease was partially offset by increased revenue resulting
from the Generation and Marketing segments portion of additional power to service load requirements of Monongahelas Delivery and Services segment in West Virginia. These requirements were previously purchased by the Delivery and Services
segment from a third party. In addition, revenue increased due to higher residential and commercial customer usage.



Wholesale and other, net, revenues increased $61.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended
September 30, 2004 and $85.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to increased net PJM revenues as a result of increased market prices, increased
MWhs generated and a change in the allocation of revenues under an affiliated contract beginning January 2005.



Operating Expenses



Fuel Consumed in Electric Generation: Fuel consumed in electric generation represents primarily the cost of coal, lime and other materials consumed in the generation of power and emission allowances. Fuel consumed in electric
generation for the Generation and Marketing segment was as follows:



|                                     |  |                                 |      |                                |   |      |  |      |       |  |   |

Total fuel expenses
increased by $10.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2004 and $21.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2004, primarily due to a $10.7 million and $20.2 million increase in coal expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively. The increase in coal expense is primarily due to increased coal prices
and an increase in MWhs generated as a result of increased availability at Monongahelas coal-fired plants.



Purchased Power and Transmission: Purchased power and transmission represents power purchases from AE Supply and exchanges with other
companies. Purchased power and transmission for the Generation and Marketing segment was as follows:



|                                 |  |                                  |      |                                |   |      |  |      |      |  |   |

Purchased power and
transmission increased $22.6 million and $41.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively, as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, respectively, primarily due to higher
congestion charges and additional purchases to service load requirements of Monongahelas Delivery and Services segment in West Virginia that were previously obtained from a third party.

| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



Operations and maintenance expenses decreased $17.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2004. This decrease was primarily due to a $14.2 million decrease in contract work expenses as a result of accelerated special maintenance at Hatfields Ferry Unit No. 2 and Pleasants Unit No. 1 during 2004 and the
timing of special maintenance expenditures during 2005.

|* | The operations of the Distribution Companies are weather sensitive. Weather conditions directly influence the volume of electricity delivered by the Distribution Companies but
represent only one of several factors that impact the volume of electricity. Degree-day data is used to estimate amounts of energy required to maintain comfortable indoor temperature levels based on each days average temperature. Heating
degree-days is the measure of the variation in the weather based on the extent to which the average daily temperature falls below 65° Fahrenheit, and cooling degree-days is the measure of the variation in the weather based on the extent to which
the average daily temperature rises above 65° Fahrenheit. Each degree of temperature above 65° Fahrenheit is counted as one cooling degree-day, and each degree of temperature below 65° Fahrenheit is counted as one heating degree-day.

Retail electric
revenues increased $20.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | a $10.6 million increase in residential revenues and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an $8.8 million increase in commercial revenues.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



Residential revenues increased due to a 13.1% increase in residential MWhs sold. Residential MWhs sold increased as a result of additional customer usage
due to a 29.8% increase in cooling degree-days and a 3.1% increase in the average number of customers.



Commercial revenues increased as a result of serving customers in Maryland at market-based rates that became effective January 1, 2005 and a 7.3%
increase in commercial MWhs sold. MWhs sold increased due to a 2.9% increase in the average number of customers and increased customer usage.



For the three months ended September 30, 2005, industrial sales remained relatively consistent as compared to the three months ended
September 30, 2004. Price increases resulting from serving customers in Maryland at market-based rates that became effective January 1, 2005 were offset by reduced PLR revenues from certain industrial customers who switched to alternative
service providers for their electricity generation requirements.



Retail electric revenues increased $29.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | a $12.1 million increase in residential revenues and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $17.1 million aggregate increase in commercial and industrial revenues.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



Residential revenues increased due to a 4.5% increase in residential MWhs sold. Residential MWhs sold increased as a result of additional customer usage
due to a 15.2% increase in cooling degree-days and a 2.9% increase in the average number of customers.



Commercial and industrial revenues increased in the aggregate as a result of market-based pricing for the generation component of rates in Maryland and a
4.3% increase in commercial MWhs sold. Commercial MWhs sold increased due to a 2.9% increase in the average number of customers and increased customer usage. These increases were partially offset by reduced PLR requirements from certain industrial
customers who switched to alternative service providers for their electricity generation requirements and reduced usage from one large industrial customer during 2005.



Transmission services and bulk power revenues increased $1.2 million and $7.7 million for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2005, respectively, as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to increased MWh sales at higher prices related to the AES Warrior Run PURPA generation facility, partially offset by
decreased transmission revenues as a result of the expiration of certain transition credits associated with Potomac Edisons entrance into the PJM regional transmission system.

Operating Expenses



Purchased Power and Transmission: Purchased power and transmission represents power purchases, primarily from AE Supply and qualified
facilities under PURPA. Purchased power and transmission consists of the following:

Purchased power and
transmission expense increased $13.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to a $12.5 million increase in other purchased power and transmission.



Other purchased power and transmission increased, primarily
due to a 14.2% increase in the price per MWh purchased. This increase in price was primarily due to power purchases at market-based rates to serve commercial and industrial customers. The increase in price was partially offset by reduced PLR
obligations as the result of the switch by certain customers to alternative service providers.



Purchased power and transmission expense increased $22.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | a $13.3 million increase in other purchased power and transmission and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $9.0 million increase in purchased power from PURPA generation.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



Other purchased power increased primarily due to a 10.4% increase in the price per MWh purchased due to Potomac Edison purchasing power for commercial and
industrial customers at market-based rates. The increase in price was partially offset by reduced PLR obligations as the result of the switch by certain customers to alternative service providers.



Purchased power from PURPA generation increased as a result of a 12.1%
increase in MWhs purchased from the AES Warrior Run PURPA generation facility, because it was dispatched at a greater amount during 2005 as compared to the same periods in 2004.



Deferred Energy Costs, Net: Deferred energy costs, net were as follows:



|                           |  |                                 |      |   |                                |   |      |      |  |   |      |   |  |   |

Deferred energy costs,
net, are primarily related to the recovery of net costs associated with purchases from the AES Warrior Run PURPA generation facility and the deferral of market-based generation costs.



To satisfy its obligations under PURPA, Potomac Edison entered into a long-term contract to purchase capacity and energy
from the AES Warrior Run PURPA generation facility through the beginning of 2030. Potomac Edison is authorized by the Maryland PSC to recover all contract costs from the AES Warrior Run PURPA generation facility, net of any revenues received from
the sale of AES Warrior Run output into the wholesale energy market, by means of a retail revenue surcharge (the AES Warrior Run Surcharge). Any under-recovery or over-recovery of net costs is being deferred on Potomac Edisons
Consolidated Balance Sheets as deferred energy costs, pending subsequent recovery from, or return to, customers through adjustments to the AES Warrior Run Surcharge. Because the AES Warrior Run Surcharge represents a dollar-for-dollar recovery of
net contract costs, AES Warrior Run Surcharge revenues or revenues from sales of AES Warrior Run output do not impact Potomac Edisons net income. Effective January 1, 2005, Potomac Edison sells all of the output it

purchases from the AES Warrior Run facility to a non-affiliated third party, through a competitive bidding process
approved by the Maryland PSC. During 2004, all of the output purchased from the AES Warrior Run facility was sold to AE Supply.



Operations and Maintenance: Operations and maintenance expenses were as follows:



|                           |  |                                 |      |                                |   |      |  |      |      |  |   |

Operations and
maintenance expenses primarily include salaries and wages, employee benefits, materials and supplies, contract work, outside services and other expenses.



Operations and maintenance expenses decreased $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended
September 30, 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | a $0.5 million decrease in outside services as a result of a reduction in the use of consultants and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a $0.9 million decrease in uncollectible expense due to improved accounts receivable collections.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Operations and maintenance expenses decreased $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to
the nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to a $3.5 million decrease in contract work and outside services. Contract work and outside services decreased as a result of a reduction in the use of outside contractors for construction
and maintenance projects and a reduction in the use of outside consultants and reduced expenses for Sarbanes-Oxley compliance and auditing services.



Depreciation and Amortization: Depreciation and amortization expenses were as follows:



|                              |  |                                 |      |                                |   |      |  |      |      |  |   |

Depreciation and
amortization expenses increased $2.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily due to increased depreciation resulting from net property, plant and equipment
additions.



Taxes Other Than Income Taxes: Taxes
other than income taxes were as follows:



|                              |  |                                 |     |                                |   |      |  |      |      |  |   |

Taxes other than
income taxes primarily includes gross receipts taxes, payroll taxes and property taxes.



Taxes other than income taxes increased $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily as a result of a $1.0 million increase in
a certain gross receipts tax due to a rate increase.



Interest Expense:Interest expense was as follows:

Net income increased
$3.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the allocated state and federal income tax benefit pursuant to
Alleghenys consolidated tax sharing agreement.



Operating Revenues and
Expenses



AGCs only operating asset is an undivided
40% interest in the Bath County, Virginia pumped-storage hydroelectric station and its connecting transmission facilities.



Pursuant to an agreement, AE Supply and Monongahela purchase all of AGCs capacity at prices based on a cost-of-service formula wholesale
rate schedule (the revenue requirements) approved by FERC. AE Supply and Monongahela purchase power from AGC on a proportional basis, based on their respective equity ownership of AGC. Under this arrangement, AGC recovers in revenues all
of its operations and maintenance expense, depreciation, taxes other than income taxes, income tax expense at the statutory rate and a component for debt and equity return on its investment.



Operating Revenues: Operating revenues were as follows:

Operating revenues
decreased $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004, primarily as a result of decreased expenditure recoveries on operations and maintenance expenditures.



Operations and Maintenance: Operations and maintenance
expenses were as follows:

Operations and
maintenance expenses primarily include salaries and wages, employee benefits, materials and supplies, contract work, outside services and other expenses.



Operations and maintenance expenses decreased $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2004, primarily as a result of an inventory write down during the second quarter of 2004.



Income Tax Expense



Income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 are lower than tax expense calculated at the federal statutory tax rate, primarily due to the allocation of consolidated tax savings and the
amortization of deferred investment tax credits.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, REQUIREMENTS AND RESOURCES



Liquidity and Capital Requirements



To meet cash needs for operating expenses, the payment of interest, retirement of debt and acquisitions and construction programs, Allegheny has
historically used internally generated funds (net cash provided by operations less common and preferred dividends) and external financings, including the sale of common and preferred stock, debt instruments, installment loans and lease arrangements.
The timing and amount of external financings depend primarily upon economic and financial market conditions and Alleghenys cash needs and capital structure objectives. The availability and cost of external financings depend upon the financial
condition of the companies seeking those funds and upon market conditions.



Alleghenys consolidated capital structure, including short-term debt and liabilities associated with assets held for sale and excluding minority interest, as of September 30, 2005, December 31,
2004 and September 30, 2004, were as follows:

In April 2005, the
holders of $295.0 million of the outstanding $300.0 million in Trust Preferred Securities issued by Capital Trust accepted AE and Capital Trusts tender offer and consent solicitation. Under the terms of the offer, for each $1,000 in
liquidation amount of Trust Preferred Securities tendered, a holder received 83.33 shares of AE common stock and $160 in cash. On April 22, 2005, AE issued an aggregate of 24.6 million shares of its common stock and $47.2 million in cash
to the holders of the tendered Trust Preferred Securities. In accordance with SFAS No. 84, Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt, the $47.2 million cash payment was expensed during the second quarter of 2005. In addition, AE
received the required consents from holders of the Trust Preferred Securities for amendments to the indenture governing AEs 117/8% Notes due 2008. The holder of the remaining $5.0 million in liquidation amount of Trust Preferred Securities converted its Trust Preferred Securities into 416,650 shares of AE common stock on May 3, 2005.



On June 16, 2005, AE and AE Supply (together, the
Borrowers) entered into a new $700 million credit facility (the New AE Credit Facility) comprised of a $400 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the Revolving Facility) and a $300 million senior
unsecured term loan (the Term Facility). The Revolving Facility (a) refinanced the aggregate principal amount of approximately $122 million outstanding under AEs prior credit facility, (b) continued letters of credit
issued under AEs prior credit facility and (c) provided working capital and letters of credit for AE and, subject to certain limitations, its subsidiaries. The lenders under the Revolving Facility are required to make revolving credit
loans to, and issue letters of credit at the request of, AE. In addition, subject to certain limitations, AE Supply may borrow, or request letters of credit for, up to $50 million directly under the Revolving Facility. AE is permitted to request
letters of credit in an amount not in excess of $125 million on behalf of AE Supply and its subsidiaries. The Revolving Facility matures June 16, 2010.



On August 1, 2005, AE used the proceeds of the Term Facility to refinance the aggregate principal outstanding amount under AEs 7.75% Notes due
August 1, 2005. AE must repay the principal amount borrowed under the Term Facility in consecutive quarterly installments equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount initially advanced to AE under the Term Facility, with the balance due in
full at maturity on June 16, 2010. AE may not re-borrow any part of the Term Facility that it repays or prepays.



Loans under the New AE Credit Facility bear interest, depending on the type of loan requested by the Borrowers, at a rate equal to either (i) the
higher of the rate announced publicly by Citibank in New York, from time to time, as Citibanks base rate or 0.50% above the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) (the Base Rate), plus the applicable margin, which
is between 1.50% and 0.50% for Base Rate loans, or (ii) the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus the applicable margin, which is between 2.50% and 1.50% for Eurodollar Rate-based loans. The applicable margin for LIBOR
borrowings was 2.00% at September 30, 2005. With respect to each letter of credit, the relevant Borrower is required to pay to the Administrative Agent a letter of credit fee equal to the applicable margin, which ranges from 2.50% to 1.50%,
times the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such letter of credit. In each case of a Base Rate loan, Eurodollar Rate loan

or letter of credit, the applicable margin varies depending upon Standard & Poors (S&P)
and Moodys Investors Service, Inc.s ratings of certain of AEs public debt. The Borrowers ability to request and maintain Eurodollar Rate loans is subject to certain limitations.



On July 21, 2005, AE Supply and certain of its subsidiaries entered into
a secured term loan facility (the New AE Supply Term Loan) of $1.07 billion. The New AE Supply Term Loan matures in 2011 and has an initial interest rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.75%. The interest rate will improve to LIBOR plus 1.50% if AE
Supplys S&P credit rating improves from current levels. Proceeds from the New AE Supply Term Loan were used, in part, to refinance approximately $738 million outstanding under the prior AE Supply loan.



Proceeds from the New AE Supply Term Loan were also used on August 22,
2005 to redeem AE Supplys 10.25% Senior Notes due 2007, which had a principal amount outstanding of approximately $331 million. Also on August 22, 2005, AE Supply used cash on hand to redeem its 13.0% Senior Notes due 2007, which had a
principal amount outstanding of approximately $35 million. AE Supply expensed premiums and costs associated with the redemption of its 10.25% Senior Notes and 13.0% Senior Notes in the amount of $32.6 million during the three months ended
September 30, 2005.



On August 15, 2005, Potomac
Edison issued $145 million of 5.125% First Mortgage Bonds due 2015. Approximately $143 million of the proceeds, together with available cash, was used to redeem Potomac Edisons $65 million of outstanding 7.75% First Mortgage Bonds due 2025 and
its $80 million of outstanding 7.625% First Mortgage Bonds due 2025.



On September 27, 2005, WPP Funding, LLC, a subsidiary of West Penn issued $115.0 million of 4.46% Transition Bonds, Series 2005-A with an expected maturity of June 2010. These bonds securitize an intangible right to receive a revenue
stream from rate payers. Interest on these bonds will accrue and be added to the principal amount of the bonds until the first scheduled interest payment date following final payment of the Transition Bonds, Series 1999-A issued by West Penn Funding
LLC, which is expected to occur in June 2008. Thereafter, interest on these bonds will be paid quarterly.



On October 6, 2005, Allegheny repaid $80.0 million under its New AE Credit Facility.



On October 17, 2005, Monongahela issued $70.0 million of 5.375% First Mortgage Bonds due 2015. Monongahela intends to
utilize the proceeds and available cash to redeem $70.0 million of its 75/8% First Mortgage Bonds due 2025 on
November 19, 2005.



On October 31, 2005,
Monongahela fully redeemed its $50.0 million of outstanding $7.73, Series L ($100 par value) Cumulative Preferred Stock. Monongahela paid accrued and unpaid dividends of approximately $1 million.



Allegheny made various other debt payments during the nine months ended
September 30, 2005. See Note 2, Debt for additional information.



Letters of Credit and Credit Facility Reserves



Allegheny has $136.5 million in letters of credit outstanding at September 30, 2005 under the Revolving Facility. Of this amount, a letter of credit for $125.0 million that expires in June 2006 was issued on September 23, 2005 on
behalf of Allegheny as collateral to stay enforcement of the judgment in Alleghenys litigation against Merrill Lynch while an appeal is pending, and letters of credit for $9.5 million and $2.0 million that expire in July 2006 and September
2006, respectively, were issued on behalf of Allegheny Energy Solutions, Inc. AE Supply also has a $1.6 million letter of credit outstanding that is collateralized by cash and expires in February 2006. These letters of credit are not recorded on
Alleghenys Consolidated Balance Sheets.



Allegheny has
agreed to maintain $35 million of availability under the Revolving Facility to stay enforcement of the judgment in its litigation against Merrill Lynch while an appeal is pending.

The
obligations for Potomac Edison and AGC did not change materially from the amounts reported in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.



Alleghenys capital expenditures for the last three months of 2005 and for the full year of 2006 are estimated at $82.2 million and $407.4 million,
respectively, and include estimated expenditures of $17.2 million and $167.8 million, respectively, for environmental control technology. See Item 8, Note 27, Commitments and Contingencies, to the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional

Financing



Debt: See Note 2, Debt, for a discussion of the issuances and redemptions of debt by the registrants during the nine months ended
September 30, 2005.



Short-term Debt: Both AE and
AE Supply manage short-term obligations with cash on hand and amounts available under revolving credit facilities. AE, Monongahela, Potomac Edison, West Penn and AE Supply manage excess cash and short-term requirements through an internal money
pool. The money pool provides funds to approved AE subsidiaries at the lower of the previous days Federal Funds Effective Interest Rate, as quoted by the Federal Reserve, or the previous days seven day commercial paper rate, as quoted by
the same source, less four basis points. AE and AE Supply can only lend money into the money pool. Monongahela, West Penn and Potomac Edison can either lend money into, or borrow money from, the money pool.



At September 30, 2005, no registrant had access to any short-term
revolving credit facilities or lines of credit with third-party financial institutions beyond those described above. AE had $256.5 million of revolving credit available under its $400 million revolving credit facility. There were $7.0 million in
borrowings and $136.5 million of outstanding letters of credit drawn against the revolving credit facility at September 30, 2005. In addition, AE Supply had a $1.6 million letter of credit outstanding at September 30, 2005 which was
collateralized by cash.



See Item 8, Note 3,
Capitalization, of the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.



Asset Sales



On September 30, 2005,
Monongahela completed the sale of its natural gas operations in West Virginia to Mountaineer Gas Holdings Limited Partnership, a partnership composed of IGS Utilities LLC, IGS Holdings LLC and affiliates of ArcLight Capital Partners, LLC, for
approximately $161.0 million in cash and the assumption of approximately $87.0 million of long-term debt, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. The assets sold included all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Mountaineer Gas and
certain other assets related to the West Virginia natural gas operations.



On August 2, 2005, Monongahela signed an agreement to sell its Ohio electric T&D assets to Columbus Southern Power (Columbus Southern), a subsidiary of American Electric Power Company, for net
cash proceeds of approximately $55 million. The purchase price for the assets will be the net book value at the time of closing, plus $10.0 million, less certain property taxes. The sale will include a power purchase agreement under which
Monongahela will provide generation service to Columbus Southern for the Ohio retail customer base from the time of closing through May 31, 2007 at $45 per megawatt-hour, which is less than the current market price for power. Monongahela
recorded an impairment charge relating to the anticipated sale of approximately $30.5 million. This amount represents the estimated value, at September 30, 2005, of Monongahelas agreement to provide generation service to Columbus Southern
at below-market prices, partially offset by approximately $8.0 million, representing the purchase price less the estimated net book value of the assets at the time of closing and approximately $2.0 million in expenses associated with the sale.
Monongahela will record additional charges or credits as the value of the purchase agreement increases or decreases up to the closing date of the sale. The sale is contingent upon certain closing conditions, third party consents and state and
federal regulatory approvals. The sale is expected to close by the end of 2005.



On August 12, 2005, AE Supply and its subsidiaries, Allegheny Energy Supply Wheatland Generating Facility, LLC and Lake Acquisition Company, LLC completed the sale of certain assets relating to AE Supplys
Wheatland generating facility (the Wheatland Assets) to PSI Energy, Inc. and The Cincinnati Gas & Electric Company for approximately $100 million and the assumption of certain liabilities related to the Wheatland Assets.



During May 2005, Potomac Edison completed the sale of its
Hagerstown, Maryland property for $10.6 million in net cash proceeds.



Land Sales:During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, AE Supply and West Penn and its subsidiaries completed land sales for aggregate proceeds of $2.4 million.



See Note 3, Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale, for
information relating to asset sales.

Cash Flows



Allegheny



Alleghenys cash flows from operating activities primarily result from the sale of electricity. Future cash flows will be affected by, among other
things, the impact that the economy, weather, customer choice and future regulatory proceedings have on revenues, future demand and market prices for energy, as well as Alleghenys ability to produce and supply its customers with power at
competitive prices.



Operating Activities: Changes in
cash flows from operations are generally consistent with changes in results of operations and are further impacted by changes in working capital. Net income before depreciation and amortization expense is a significant component of cash flows from
operating activities.



Cash flows provided by operating
activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 were $326.3 million, consisting of discontinued operations and non-cash charges of $250.1 million, net income of $59.9 million and changes in certain assets and liabilities of $16.3
million. Cash flows provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 were $331.8 million, consisting of discontinued operations and non-cash charges of $740.8 million, partially offset by a net loss of $383.0
million and changes in certain assets and liabilities of $26.0 million.



Significant cash flows related to operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 included $78.0 million in payments to Alleghenys pension and other postretirement benefit plans, primarily as a result of
contributions made to satisfy the funding requirements of these benefit plans, $47.2 million in payments to the holders of the 117/8% Trust Preferred Securities under the terms of the tender offer and consent solicitation, $29.5 million in payments to the remaining holders of AE Supplys 10.25% and 13.0% Senior Notes and the cash receipt of $11.2
million from a former trading executives forfeited assets.



Significant cash flows related to operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 included $70.8 million in proceeds related to the 2003 sale of the CDWR contract and related hedges to J. Aron & Company as a
result of the exit from Western U.S. energy markets, $44.8 million in payments to Alleghenys pension and other postretirement benefit plans, primarily as a result of contributions made to satisfy the funding requirements of these benefits
plans and $28.0 million in final scheduled payments in connection with the termination of the tolling agreement with Williams Energy and Marketing Company.



The changes in certain assets and liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 resulted in an increase in operating cash flows of $16.3
million. Operating cash flows were provided primarily by a $62.0 million increase in accrued taxes, primarily as a result of timing differences associated with the payment of certain tax obligations, a $49.0 million change in assets and liabilities
held for sale and a $46.8 million increase in accrued interest, primarily as a result of interest expense accrued for the Merrill Lynch litigation summary judgment. These amounts were partially offset by cash flows used for operating activities
primarily as a result of a $73.2 million increase in accounts receivable, net, primarily due to the timing and volume of unbilled utility revenues, and a $51.0 million increase in collateral deposits due to the requirements of various contracts.



The changes in certain assets and liabilities for the nine
months ended September 30, 2004 resulted in a decrease in operating cash flows of $26.0 million. Operating cash flows were used primarily for a $60.7 million increase in collateral deposits due to the requirements of various contracts, a $20.6
million decrease in accounts payable, primarily as a result of timing differences associated with the payment of certain obligations, and a $16.9 million decrease in accrued taxes, primarily as a result of timing differences associated with the
payment of certain tax obligations. These amounts were partially offset by cash flows provided by operating activities primarily due to a $34.3 million decrease in accounts receivable, net, primarily due to the timing and volume of unbilled utility
revenues, and a $28.9 million increase in accrued interest, primarily as a result of timing differences associated with the payment of certain obligations.



Investing Activities: Cash flows provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 were $246.0 million. Cash flows
used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 were $174.7 million.



Significant cash flows provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 included a $206.0 million decrease in restricted
funds, primarily due to the release of the proceeds related to the 2004 sales of OVEC and the Lincoln generation facility, and $247.4 million in sale proceeds, primarily related to the sale of the West Virginia natural gas operations and the AE
Supply Wheatland Generating Facility. These amounts were partially offset by $204.4 million in capital expenditures.

refinancing of outstanding First Mortgage Bonds. This amount was partially offset by $1,782.4 million (net of $14.2 million related to debt issuance costs) in proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt, primarily related to the previously
mentioned refinancings and the issuance of $115.0 million in Transition Bonds.

Monongahela



Monongahelas cash flows from operating activities primarily result
from the sale, transmission and distribution of electricity. Future cash flows will be affected by, among other things, the impact that the economy, weather, customer choice and future regulatory proceedings have on revenues, future demand and
market prices for energy, as well as Monongahelas ability to obtain and provide its customers with power at competitive prices.



Internal generation of cash, consisting of cash flows provided by operating activities reduced by common and preferred dividends, was $23.8 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared with $56.4 million for the same period in 2004.

September 30, 2005 resulted in a decrease in operating cash flows of $63.1 million. Operating cash flows were used primarily for a $43.6 million change in accounts receivable due from/payable to affiliates, net, primarily as a result of timing
differences associated with the payment of certain obligations, a $12.7 million increase in accounts receivable, net, primarily due to the timing and volume of unbilled utility revenues, a $9.5 million increase in collateral deposits, primarily as a
result of collateral requirements of PJM related to the Ohio customers and a $9.4 million change in assets and liabilities held for sale. These amounts were partially offset by cash flows provided by operating activities primarily due to a $6.1
million increase in accrued interest, primarily as a result of timing differences associated with the payment of certain obligations.



The changes in certain assets and liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 resulted in a decrease in operating cash flows of $5.6
million. Operating cash flows were used primarily for a $32.4 million change in taxes receivable/accrued, net, a $3.6 million decrease in accounts payable and a $3.5 million increase in prepaid taxes, each primarily as a result of timing differences

resulting from a decrease in restricted funds due to reduced collateral requirements related to an affiliate power agreement. The nine months ended September 30, 2004 amount also included a use of $7.4 million resulting from an increase in
restricted funds due to collateral requirements related to an affiliate power agreement.



Financing Activities: Cash flows used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 were $43.3 million and $56.6 million, respectively.



Significant cash flows used in financing activities for the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 included $149.6 million for the retirement of outstanding First Mortgage Bonds related to the August 15, 2005 refinancing, and $47.1 million in cash dividends paid on common stock. These amounts were partially offset by
$142.4 million (net of $1.2 million related to debt issuance costs) in proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt related to the August 2005 refinancing, and $10.9 million for a decrease in a note receivable from an affiliate.



Significant cash flows used in financing activities for the nine months ended
September 30, 2004 were for an increase in a note receivable from an affiliate and cash dividends paid on common stock.



AGC



AGCs cash flows from operating activities primarily result from the sale of electricity. Future cash flows will be affected by, among other things,
the impact that the economy and weather have on revenues, future demand and market prices for energy.



Internal generation of cash, consisting of cash flows provided by operating activities reduced by common dividends, was $14.3 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2005 compared with $20.5 million for the same period in 2004.



Operating Activities: Changes in cash flows from operations are generally consistent with changes in results of operations and are further impacted by changes in working capital. Net income before depreciation
and amortization expense is a significant component of cash flows from operating activities.



Cash flows provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 were $30.5 million, consisting of net income of $22.5 million, non-cash charges of $7.8 million and changes in certain
assets and liabilities of $0.2 million. Cash flows provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 were $33.0 million, consisting of net income of $19.5 million, non-cash charges of $8.5 million and changes in
certain assets and liabilities of $5.0 million.



The changes in
certain assets and liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 resulted in an increase in operating cash flows of $0.2 million. Operating cash flows were provided primarily by a $0.5 million change in accounts receivable due
from/payable to affiliates, net, as a result of timing differences associated with the payment of certain obligations.



The changes in certain assets and liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 resulted in an increase in operating cash flows of $5.0
million. Operating cash flows were provided primarily by a $4.9 million change in accounts receivable due from/payable to affiliates, net, as a result of timing differences associated with the payment of certain obligations.



Investing Activities: Cash flows used in investing activities for the
nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 were $6.5 million and $7.1 million, respectively, consisting of capital expenditures.

Financing Activities: Cash flows used in financing activities for the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 were $31.2 million consisting of a $15.0 million payment on a note payable to parent and $16.2 million of cash dividends paid on common stock. Cash flows used in financing activities for the nine months ended
September 30, 2004 were $22.5 million consisting of a $10.0 million payment on a note payable to parent and $12.5 million of cash dividends paid on common stock.

OTHER MATTERS



Critical Accounting
Policies



A summary of Alleghenys critical
accounting policies is included under Item 8, Note 2, Basis of Presentation, in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Alleghenys critical accounting policies have not changed materially from those reported in the 2004 Annual Report on Form
10-K.



REGULATORY MATTERS



See, Item 1, Regulatory Framework Affecting Allegheny in
the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a summary of regulatory matters.



Federal Legislation, Regulation and Rate Matters



Beginning in July 2003, FERC issued a series of orders related to transmission rate design for the PJM and Midwest Independent Transmission System Operator regions. Specifically, FERC ordered the elimination of multiple and additive (i.e.,
pancaked) rates and called for the implementation of a long-term rate design for these regions. In November 2004, FERC rejected long-term regional rate proposals from the Distribution Companies and others. FERC concluded that neither of
the rate design proposals, nor the existing PJM rate design, had been shown to be just and reasonable. However, FERC ordered the continuation of the existing rate design and the implementation of a transition charge for this region through
March 31, 2006. FERC also authorized three transmission owners to submit filings that would enable them to assess additional transition charges against the Distribution Companies and other utilities in PJM. In February 2005, FERC accepted these
transition charges, effective December 1, 2004, subject to an evidentiary hearing regarding the data and methodology used to determine the charges and proposed adjustments.



110



---

##### Table of Contents

The order expected to be issued by FERC may require the Distribution Companies to refund some portion of
the amounts received from these transition charges or entitle the Distribution Companies to receive additional revenue from these charges. Allegheny estimates that these additional charges will result in net transmission charges to the Distribution
Companies of approximately $4.7 million for the ten-month period ended September 30, 2005 and approximately $3.5 million for the remaining six-month period ended March 31, 2006. In addition, the Distribution Companies may be required to
pay additional amounts as a result of surcharges imposed on the transition charges previously billed to the Distribution Companies. In a May 2005 order, FERC again determined that the existing PJM rate design may not be just and reasonable. On
September 30, 2005, the Distribution Companies, together with another PJM transmission owner, filed a proposed rate design with FERC to replace the existing rate design within PJM, effective April 1, 2006. Two other PJM transmission owners
also filed a separate proposed rate design. A hearing is scheduled for April 2006 to determine whether the rate design is unjust and unreasonable and whether it should be replaced by either of the proposed rate designs.



Substantially all of Alleghenys generation assets and power supply
obligations are located within the PJM market. Any changes in PJM policies and/or market rules, including changes that are currently under consideration by FERC, could adversely affect Alleghenys financial results. These matters include
proposed revisions to PJMs tariff concerning the auction of long-term financial transmission rights and the allocation mechanism for the auction revenues; changes in transmission congestion patterns due to the proposed implementation of
PJMs regional transmission expansion planning protocol or other required transmission system upgrades; and new generation retirement rules and market rules governing the capacity markets.



In July 2005, Congress passed the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (the Energy
Policy Act), which the President signed into law on August 8, 2005. This far-reaching bill will affect many aspects of electric generation, transmission and distribution. Among other things, the bill repeals PUHCA, effective
February 8, 2006. Currently, PUHCA imposes financial and operational conditions and restrictions on many aspects of the business of a registered holding company system. For example, PUHCA requires pre-approval from the SEC for, among other
things, the issuance of debt or equity securities and for the sale or acquisition of utility assets and, with limited exceptions, requires that transactions between affiliated companies in a registered holding company system be performed at cost.



Following PUHCAs repeal, Allegheny will continue to be
subject to substantial regulation, including increased authority of FERC. The Energy Policy Act gives FERC significant new responsibilities, including oversight of the reliability of the transmission grid, backstop authority to site transmission
facilities in national interest electric transmission corridors and the authority to provide incentive-based rates to promote transmission investment. The Energy Policy Act provides FERC additional jurisdiction to review books and records of holding
companies and over utility mergers, acquisitions of utility securities and assets and certain asset transfers. In addition, FERC will now have jurisdiction over the actions of electric utility subsidiaries of formerly registered holding companies
like Allegheny under circumstances previously preempted by PUHCA, including authority over the issuance of certain securities and the assumption of certain liabilities.



FERC has issued notices of proposed rulemaking related to the implementation of the Energy Policy Act. In one such notice,
FERC has requested comments on, among other things, whether the SECs at cost rule should be replaced with the FERCs lower of cost or market standard. Allegheny is currently assessing the impact that the Energy
Policy Act and FERCs proposed rules will have on it.



On
August 11, 2005, AE Supply, the Distribution Companies and other Allegheny entities that have market-based rate authority granted by FERC filed a triennial analysis of market power with FERC. This filing is required as a condition to continuing
to sell electric energy at wholesale and market rates. FERC approved this filing on October 20, 2005.



State Legislation, Regulation and Rate Matters



Pennsylvania: In November 2003, West Penn requested approval to issue additional transition bonds up to amounts originally authorized to securitize the portion of West Penns stranded costs that are not
recoverable on a timely basis due to operation of the generation rate cap. In September 2004, West Penn, the Pennsylvania Office of Consumer Advocate, the Office of Small Business Advocate and The West Penn Power Industrial Intervenors filed a Joint
Petition for Settlement and for Modification of the 1998 Restructuring Settlement (the Joint Petition). In March 2005, the parties filed an amendment to the Joint Petition, adding additional parties.



111



---

##### Table of Contents

On April 21, 2005, the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission approved the amended Joint Petition,
which allows West Penn to securitize up to $115 million of additional transition costs (including the deferred portion of the competitive transition charge (CTC) from 1999 through 2004) through the issuance of transition bonds. On
September 27, 2005, WPP Funding, LLC, a subsidiary of West Penn, issued $115 million aggregate principal amount of 4.46% Transition Bonds, Series 2005-A.



As part of the April 2005 order, the Pennsylvania PUC extended distribution rate caps from 2005 to 2007, and extended generation rate caps from 2008 to
2010, with additional generation rate increases occurring in 2007, 2009 and 2010. According to the terms of the amended Joint Petition, a Request for Proposal for full requirements wholesale electric power supply to serve load in 2009 and 2010 was
issued May 31, 2005 with bids due July 20, 2005. AE Supply was the successful bidder and was awarded the contract on July 21, 2005. On September 2, 2005, AE Supply filed a request with the FERC for authority to make these
wholesale power sales, which FERC granted on October 25, 2005.



Ohio:In July 2003, PUCO authorized Monongahela to issue a request for proposals for wholesale power to supply approximately 130 MW of new standard market-based retail rate service to its large industrial and commercial customers and
to its street lighting customers. In October 2003, PUCO denied approval of the wholesale bid and new retail rates and ordered the continuation of the current fixed rates for these customer classes until December 31, 2005. In February 2004,
Monongahela appealed PUCOs decision to the Ohio Supreme Court. On December 30, 2004, the Ohio Supreme Court affirmed PUCOs October 2003 order extending Monongahelas rate caps for large commercial and industrial customers past
the end of 2003.



Since January 2004, Monongahela has been
purchasing power at PJM market prices for these customers. The price for that power has been, and Monongahela anticipates that it will continue to be, higher than the current retail generation rates it charges these customers. Monongahela has
expensed $12.2 million and $2.8 million of costs in excess of its rates for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and $23.1 million and $7.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004,
respectively, pending the final outcome of Monongahelas legal challenges.



In February 2004, Monongahela filed for an injunction in federal court seeking to recover, in retail rates, its costs of purchasing power in the wholesale market. In May 2004, the court partially granted
Monongahelas request, ruling that the Ohio legislation adopted in 1999 to restructure the electric utility industry was unconstitutional to the extent it did not permit Monongahela to make a claim with PUCO that its rates are confiscatory.
Monongahela requested reconsideration of the courts order, which the court partially granted by retaining jurisdiction over this matter. PUCO initiated a proceeding in compliance with the federal courts directive. In June 2004,
Monongahela filed its application for rate relief, which PUCO denied in December 2004 with respect to certain large industrial and commercial customers and street lighting customers. Monongahela requested rehearing of PUCOs ruling on
January 7, 2005, which was denied. Monongahela appealed this ruling on February 25, 2005. On January 12, 2005, Monongahela renewed its request for a preliminary injunction against PUCO in federal court. On September 27, 2005, the
federal court denied without prejudice Monongahelas renewed motion for administrative purposes, noting that, in the event that a settlement of this matter is not achieved, it will reactivate the motion.



On June 14, 2005, PUCO directed Monongahela to begin discussions with
Columbus Southern Power Company (Columbus Southern), a subsidiary of American Electric Power, regarding the transfer of Monongahelas Ohio service territory to AEP. On August 2, 2005, Monongahela entered into an agreement with
Columbus Southern for the sale of its Ohio T&D business. Monongahela has filed requests for approval of the sale with both PUCO and FERC. A hearing at PUCO regarding the proposed sale was held on October 11 and October 12, 2005. FERC
approved this transaction on October 28, 2005.



Maryland: In May 2005, the Maryland PSC initiated a policy review proceeding to consider statewide options for Type II standard offer service (SOS) after current settlement expirations. Type II SOS is a generation service
currently provided by utilities to larger-sized commercial and industrial customers. The market price SOS currently provided by Potomac Edison to its Type II non-residential customers was scheduled to expire on December 31, 2006. A settlement
agreement, signed by many of the parties, was filed with the Maryland PSC in June 2005. On September 30, 2005, the Commission issued an order accepting the settlement with certain changes. In a joint response to this order, which was filed on
September 30, 2005 by the states electric utilities, Potomac Edison requested certain modifications to the order and on October 12, 2005, the Maryland PUC issued an order revising its initial order consistent with Potomac
Edisons requests. As a result, market-priced SOS for

##### Table of Contents

Potomac Edisons Type II customers will be extended until May 31, 2007, and SOS for all of Potomac
Edisons Type II customers will be procured annually. Substantially all other terms and conditions for providing this SOS are the same as previously approved by the Maryland PSC.



On October 13, 2005, Eastalco Aluminum Company filed a show cause complaint with the Maryland PUC alleging that Potomac
Edisons present T&D rates produce overearnings in excess of $18 million. Potomac Edison will respond to the complaint, arguing that its present rates produce revenues that, when properly adjusted for ratemaking principles accepted in its
last base rate case, result in an appropriate level of jurisdictional earnings. Allegheny cannot predict the outcome of this proceeding.



West Virginia: On May 24, 2005 Monongahela and Potomac Edison filed an application with the West Virginia PSC requesting approval to issue
$382 million in environmental control bonds to raise capital for the installation of pollution control equipment at the Fort Martin generating station located near Morgantown, West Virginia. Monongahela and Potomac Edison have proposed to secure
these environmental control bonds with the rights to collect an environmental control charge from customers over the term of the bonds. This securitized financing is permitted under legislation that was signed into law in West Virginia on
May 4, 2005. Hearings by the West Virginia PSC on this application and applications filed by Monongahela and Potomac Edison related to proposed intercompany transfers of certain generation assets and for a Certificate of Public Convenience and
Necessity related to the proposed installation of the pollution control equipment at Ft. Martin are scheduled to begin on November 29, 2005. On July 13, 2005, Monongahela, Potomac Edison and AE Supply filed a request at the FERC for
approval of the proposed generation asset transfers and an amended and restated power purchase agreement, which FERC approved on October 21, 2005.



On August 24, 2005, the West Virginia PSC approved the sale of Mountaineer and Alleghenys other natural gas operations in West Virginia and a
related increase in Mountaineers base rates. The sale of these assets was completed on September 30, 2005.



ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK



Alleghenys primary market risk exposures are associated with interest rates and commodity prices. Allegheny has risk management policies to monitor
and assist in controlling these market risks and uses derivative instruments to manage some of the exposures.



A summary of Alleghenys market risks is included under Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, of the 2004
Annual Report on Form 10-K. Alleghenys market risks have not changed materially from those reported in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.



As reported in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K, Allegheny uses various methods to measure their exposure to market risk on a daily basis, including a
value at risk model (VaR). Allegheny calculates VaR using the full term of all remaining positions being marked-to-market. This calculation is based upon managements best estimates and modeling assumptions, which could materially
differ from actual results. As of September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, this calculation yielded a VaR of $0.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively.



ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



See, Item 9a, Controls and Procedures, in the 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information relating to Controls and Procedures.



Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Each registrant carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with
the participation of its management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of
the end of the period covered by this report (the Evaluation Date). Based on that evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of each registrant have concluded that the applicable registrants
disclosure controls and procedures as of the Evaluation Date were effective to ensure that (a) material information relating to each registrant is accumulated and made known to the registrants management, including its principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and (b) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SECs rules and forms.



Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There
have been no changes in the registrants internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect,
internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2005.
