Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)



1. Basis of
Presentation

Nature of Operations and Basis of Consolidation.Duke Energy Holding Corp. (Duke Energy HC) was incorporated in Delaware on
May 3, 2005 as Deer Holding Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Duke Energy Corporation (Old Duke Energy). On April 3, 2006, in accordance with their previously announced merger agreement, Old Duke Energy and Cinergy Corp. (Cinergy) merged
into wholly-owned subsidiaries of Duke Energy HC, resulting in Duke Energy HC becoming the parent entity. In connection with the closing of the merger transactions, Duke Energy HC changed its name to Duke Energy Corporation (New Duke
Energy or Duke Energy) and Old Duke Energy converted its form of organization from a North Carolina corporation to a North Carolina limited liability company named Duke Power Company LLC (Duke Power). The term Duke Energy, as used
in this report, refers to Old Duke Energy and New Duke Energy, as the context requires.

On April 1, 2006, in connection with the above
transactions, Old Duke Energy transferred the operations of Duke Energy Merchants, LLC and Duke Energy Merchant Finance, LLC (collectively DEM) to its wholly-owned subsidiary, Duke Capital LLC (collectively with its subsidiaries, Duke
Capital). As a result of these transfers, prior period amounts have been retrospectively adjusted to include the results of operations, financial position and cash flows related to DEM as these transactions represent a transfer of assets under
common control. The inclusion of DEM in the results of operations of Duke Capital for prior periods increased net income by $6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and increased net income by $1 million and $2 million for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively. The net of tax impact on other comprehensive income of the inclusion of DEM was immaterial for all prior periods. Additionally, on April 1, 2006, Duke Capital transferred the operations of
its wholly-owned captive insurance subsidiary, Bison Insurance Company Limited (Bison), to Duke Energy. Due to continuing involvement between Bison and Duke Capital entities, the results of operations of Bison do not qualify for discontinued
operations treatment. Accordingly, Bisons operations are not included in Duke Capitals results of operations, financial position or cash flows subsequent to its transfer to Duke Energy. On April 3, 2006, Duke Power transferred to
its parent, Duke Energy, all of its membership interests in Duke Capital.

Additionally, in April 2006, Duke Capital indirectly transferred to The
Cincinnati Gas & Electric Company (CG&E), a subsidiary of Cinergy, its ownership interest in Duke Energy North Americas (DENAs) Midwestern assets, representing a mix of combined cycle and peaking plants, with a combined
capacity of approximately 3,600 megawatts (MWs). In connection with this transfer, Duke Capital transferred to CG&E approximately $1.6 billion of assets at their carrying value and approximately $0.1 billion of liabilities at their carrying
value, for a net transfer of approximately $1.5 billion. This transfer has been accounted for as a capital contribution at historical cost. In connection with the transfer, Duke Capital and CG&E entered into an arrangement through April 2016,
unless otherwise extended by the parties, whereby Duke Capital will reimburse CG&E in the event of certain cash shortfalls that may result from CG&Es ownership of the Midwestern assets. The amounts that Duke Capital may be required to
reimburse CG&E under this arrangement are not expected to be significant. The results of operations for DENAs Midwestern assets have been reflected as discontinued operations in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Duke Capital is a leading energy company located in the Americas with a real estate subsidiary. As a result of Duke Energys merger with
Cinergy, Duke Capital and its subsidiaries entered into a tax sharing agreement with Duke Energy, effective April 1, 2006, where the separate return method is used to allocate income taxes to the subsidiaries based on the results of their
operations. The accounting for income taxes essentially represents the income taxes that Duke Capital would incur if Duke Capital were a separate company filing its own tax return as a C-Corporation. Prior to entering into this tax sharing
agreement, Duke Capital and Duke Energy Americas (DEA) were pass-through entities for U.S. income tax purposes. As a result, on April 1, 2006, all deferred taxes related to Duke Capital and DEA, which previously flowed through to Duke Capitals
parent, Duke Energy, were reinstated, resulting in an increase in Members Equity of approximately $37 million.

The Consolidated Financial
Statements include, after eliminating intercompany transactions and balances, the accounts of Duke Capital and all majority-owned subsidiaries where Duke Capital has control, and those variable interest entities where Duke Capital is the primary
beneficiary.

These Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to
fairly present Duke Capitals financial position and results of operations. Amounts reported in the interim Consolidated Statements of Operations are not necessarily indicative of amounts expected for the respective annual periods due to the
effects of seasonal temperature variations on energy consumption, the timing of maintenance on electric generating units, changes in mark-to-market valuations, changing commodity prices and other factors. These Consolidated Financial Statements and
other information included in this quarterly

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements(Continued)



report should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes in Duke Capitals Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Effective July 1, 2005, Duke Capital deconsolidated Duke Energy Field Services, LLC (DEFS) due to a reduction in ownership and its inability to
exercise control over DEFS. DEFS has been accounted for as an equity method investment since July 1, 2005.

Use of Estimates.To conform
with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes. Although these estimates are based on
managements best available knowledge at the time, actual results could differ.

Reclassifications.In 2005, Duke Capital recorded prior
period reclassifications of management fees charged to an unconsolidated affiliate of Duke Capital (See Note 16).



2. Acquisitions and Dispositions

Acquisitions. Duke Capital
consolidates assets and liabilities from acquisitions as of the purchase date, and includes earnings from acquisitions in consolidated earnings after the purchase date. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at estimated fair values on
the purchase date. The purchase price minus the estimated fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities meeting the definition of a business as defined in EITF Issue No. 98-3, Determining Whether a Nonmonetary Transaction Involves
Receipt of Productive Assets or of a Business is recorded as goodwill. The allocation of the purchase price may be adjusted if additional information on known contingencies existing at the date of acquisition becomes available during the
allocation period, which generally does not exceed one year from the consummation date, however, it may be longer for certain income tax items.

Other Acquisitions.During the first quarter of 2006, Duke Energy International (DEI) closed on two transactions which resulted in the acquisition of an additional 27% interest in the Aguaytia Integrated Energy Project (Aguaytia),
located in Peru, for approximately $31 million (approximately $18 million net of cash acquired). The projects scope includes the production and processing of natural gas, sale of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and natural gas liquids and
the generation, transmission and sale of electricity from a 177 megawatt power plant. These acquisitions increased DEIs ownership in Aguaytia to 65% and resulted in Duke Capital accounting for Aguaytia as a consolidated entity. Prior to the
acquisition of this additional interest, Aguaytia was accounted for as an equity method investment.

During the first quarter of 2006, Duke Energy
North America (DENA) acquired the remaining 331/3% interest in Bridgeport Energy LLC (Bridgeport) from United Bridgeport
Energy LLC (UBE) for approximately $71 million. The assets and liabilities of Bridgeport, which had been classified as Assets Held For Sale, were included as part of DENAs power generation assets which were sold to a subsidiary of LS Power
Equity Partners (LS Power) (see Note 10).

Dispositions.For the three months ended June 30, 2006, the sale of other assets and
businesses resulted in approximately $13 million in proceeds and net pre-tax losses of $5 million recorded in (Losses) Gains on Sales of Other Assets and Other, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the six months ended
June 30, 2006, the sale of other assets and businesses resulted in approximately $35 million in proceeds and net pre-tax gains of $28 million recorded in (Losses) Gains on Sales of Other Assets and Other, net on the Consolidated Statements of
Operations. These sales exclude assets that were held for sale and reflected in discontinued operations, both of which are discussed in Note 10, and sales by Crescent Resources LLC (Crescent) which are discussed separately below. Significant sales
of other assets during the six months ended June 30, 2006 result primarily from:

| |  |  | Natural Gas Transmissions sale of certain Stone Mountain natural gas gathering system assets resulted in proceeds of $18 million (which is reflected in Net proceeds from the sales of
equity investments and other assets, and sales of and collections on notes receivable within Cash Flows from Investing Activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows), and pre-tax gain of $5 million which was recorded in (Losses) Gains on
Sales of Other Assets and Other, net in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. In addition, Natural Gas Transmissions sale of stock, received as consideration for the settlement of a customers transportation contract, resulted
in proceeds of approximately $24 million (which is reflected in Other, assets within Cash Flows from Operating Activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows) and a pre-tax gain of $24 million, of which approximately $23 million was
recorded in (Losses) Gains on Sales of Other Assets and Other, net and approximately $1 million was recorded in Other Income and Expenses, net in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations (see Note 7).

For the three months ended June 30, 2006, Crescents commercial and multi-family real estate sales resulted in $165 million of proceeds and $145 million
of net pre-tax gains recorded in Gains on Sales of Investments in Commercial and Multi-Family Real Estate on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, Crescents commercial and multi-family real
estate

sales resulted in $221 million of proceeds and $171 million of net pre-tax gains recorded in Gains on Sales of Investments in Commercial and Multi-Family Real Estate
on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Sales primarily consisted of two office buildings at Potomac Yard in Washington, D.C. for a pre-tax gain of $81 million and land at Lake Keowee in northwestern South Carolina for a pre-tax gain of $52
million, as well as several other large land tract sales.

For the three months ended June 30, 2005, the sale of other assets, businesses and
equity investments resulted in approximately $13 million in proceeds, and pre-tax gains of $6 million recorded in (Losses) Gains on Sales and Impairments of Equity Investments on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the six months ended
June 30, 2005, the sale of other assets, businesses and equity investments resulted in approximately $1.2 billion in proceeds, net pre-tax gains of $8 million recorded in (Losses) Gains on Sales of Other Assets and Other, net and pre-tax gains
of $1.2 billion recorded in (Losses) Gains on Sales and Impairments of Equity Investments on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. These sales exclude assets held for sale and reflected in discontinued operations, both of which are discussed in
Note 10, and sales by Crescent which are discussed separately below. Significant sales of other assets and equity investments during the six months ended June 30, 2005 are detailed as follows:

| |  |  | In February 2005, DEFS sold its wholly-owned subsidiary Texas Eastern Products Pipeline Company, LLC (TEPPCO GP), which is the general partner of TEPPCO Partners, LP (TEPPCO LP), for
approximately $1.1 billion and Duke Energy sold its limited partner interest in TEPPCO LP for approximately $100 million, in each case to Enterprise GP Holdings LP, an unrelated third party. These transactions resulted in pre-tax gains of $1.2
billion, which have been classified as (Losses) Gains on Sales of Other Assets and Other, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2005. Minority Interest Expense of $343 million was recorded in the
Consolidated Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2005 to reflect ConocoPhillips proportionate share in the pre-tax gain on sale of the TEPPCO GP.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Additional asset and business sales during the six month period ended June 30, 2005 total approximately $20 million in proceeds. These sales resulted in net pre-tax gains of $9 million
which were recorded in (Losses) Gains on Sales of Other Assets and Other, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For the
three months ended June 30, 2005, Crescents commercial and multi-family real estate sales resulted in $26 million of proceeds and $12 million of net pre-tax gains recorded in Gains on Sales of Investments in Commercial and Multi-Family
Real Estate on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, Crescents commercial and multi-family real estate sales resulted in $77 million of proceeds and $54 million of net pre-tax gains recorded in
Gains on Sales of Investments in Commercial and Multi-Family Real Estate on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Sales consisted of several legacy land sales.



3. Stock-Based Compensation

Duke Capital
and its subsidiaries are allocated stock-based compensation expense from Duke Energy as certain of its employees participate in Duke Energys stock-based compensation programs. Effective January 1, 2006, Duke Energy adopted the provisions
of SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (SFAS No. 123(R)). SFAS No. 123(R) establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee and certain nonemployee services. Accordingly, for employee awards, equity
classified stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. Duke Energy previously applied Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion
No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and FIN 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation (an Interpretation of APB Opinion 25) and provided the required pro forma disclosures of SFAS
No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS No. 123). Since the exercise price for all options granted under those plans was equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the grant date, no compensation
cost was recognized in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Compensation expense for awards with graded vesting provisions is
recognized in accordance with FIN 28, Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable Stock Option or Award Plans. Duke Energy elected to adopt the modified prospective application method as provided by SFAS No.123(R), and
accordingly, financial statement amounts from the prior periods presented in this Form 10-Q have not been restated. There were no modifications to outstanding stock options prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R).

Duke Energys 1998 Long-term Incentive Plan, as amended (the 1998 Plan), reserved 60 million shares
of common stock for awards to employees and outside directors. Under the 1998 Plan, the exercise price of each option granted cannot be less than the market price of Duke Energys common stock on the date of grant and the maximum option term is
10 years. The vesting periods range from immediate to five years. Duke Energy issues new shares upon exercising or vesting of share-based awards.

Upon the acquisition of Westcoast Energy, Inc. (Westcoast), Duke Energy converted all stock options outstanding under the 1989 Westcoast Long-term Incentive Share Option Plan to Duke Energy stock options. Certain of these options also
provide for share appreciation rights under which the holder of a stock option may, in lieu of exercising the option, exercise the share appreciation right. The exercise price of these options equals the market price on the date of grant and the
maximum option term is 10 years. The vesting periods range from immediate to four years.

DUKE CAPITAL LLC

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements(Continued)



On December 31, 2005, Duke Capital employees had 16 million exercisable Duke Energy options with a $32 weighted-average
exercise price. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 was approximately $7 million and $11 million, respectively. Cash received by Duke Energy from options exercised during the six
months ended June 30, 2006 was approximately $16 million, with a related tax benefit to Duke Energy of approximately $3 million.

There were no
options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2006 or during the year ended December 31, 2005.

The 1998 Plan allows for a maximum of
twelve million shares of common stock to be issued under various stock-based awards. Payments for cash settled awards during the period were immaterial.

Stock-based performance awards outstanding under the 1998 Plan generally vest over three years. Vesting for certain stock-based performance awards can occur in three years, at the earliest, if performance is met. Certain performance awards
granted in 2006 contain market conditions based on the total shareholder return (TSR) of Duke Energy stock (relative TSR). These awards are valued using a path-dependent model that incorporates expected relative TSR into the fair value determination
of Duke Energys performance-based share awards with the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R). The model uses three year historical volatilities and correlations for all companies in the pre-defined peer group, including Duke Energy, to simulate
Duke Energys relative TSR as of the end of the performance period. For each simulation, Duke Energys relative TSR associated with the simulated stock price at the end of the performance period plus expected dividends within the period
results in a value per share for the award portfolio. The average of these simulations is the expected portfolio value per share. Actual life to date results of Duke Energys relative TSR for each grant is incorporated within the model. Other
awards not containing market conditions are measured at grant date price. Duke Energy awarded 769,340 shares (fair value of approximately $14 million) to Duke Capital employees in the six months ended June 30, 2006, and 1,004,150 shares (fair
value of approximately $27 million, based on the market price of Duke Energys common stock at the grant date) in the six months ended June 30, 2005.

The following table summarizes information about stock-based performance awards outstanding at June 30, 2006:

5. Debt and Credit Facilities

Available Credit Facilities and Restrictive Debt Covenants. In the second quarter of 2006, Duke Capital closed on the syndication of $600 million in
revolving credit facilities in the U.S. and 600 million in Canadian dollars. These syndications, which were amendments to and extensions of existing U.S. and Canadian credit facilities, extended the terms of the credit facilities by one year
and built in covenant flexibility where appropriate to allow Duke Capital to pursue certain strategic activities, including Duke Energys expected separation of the gas and electric businesses.

During the six months ended June 30, 2006, Duke Capitals consolidated credit capacity decreased by approximately $1,236 million, primarily due to the
terminations of an $800 million syndicated credit facility and $460 million in bi-lateral credit facilities. The terminations of these credit facilities primarily reflect Duke Capitals reduced liquidity needs as a result of exiting the DENA
business (see Note 10).

The issuance of commercial paper, letters of credit and other borrowings reduces the amount available under the
available credit facilities.

Duke Capitals debt and credit agreements contain various financial and other covenants. Failure to meet those
covenants beyond applicable grace periods could result in accelerated due dates and/or termination of the agreements. As of June 30, 2006, Duke Capital

was in compliance with those covenants. In addition, credit agreements allow for acceleration of payments or termination of the agreements due to nonpayment, or in
some cases, due to the acceleration of other significant indebtedness of the borrower or some of its subsidiaries. None of the debt or credit agreements contain material adverse change clauses.

6. Employee Benefit Obligations

Duke Capital and its subsidiaries participate in Duke Energys non-contributory defined benefit retirement plan. Duke Capitals net periodic pension
benefit for its U.S. plan, as allocated by Duke Energy, was $3 million and $5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and $7 million and $10 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005,
respectively.

Duke Energy sponsors non-qualified pension plans (plans that do not meet the criteria for certain tax benefits) that cover officers,
certain other key employees, and non-employee directors. Duke Capital and its subsidiaries participate in Duke Energys non-qualified pension plans. Duke Capitals net periodic pension cost for its U.S. plan, as allocated by Duke Energy,
was $1 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 and $2 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

There have been no contributions made by Duke Capital to Duke Energys U.S. retirement plan during the three and six months ended June 30, 2006.

The following tables show the components of the net periodic pension costs for the Westcoast Canadian retirement plans.

Westcoasts policy is to fund its defined benefit (DB) retirement plans on an actuarial basis and in
accordance with Canadian pension standards legislation, in order to accumulate assets sufficient to meet benefit payments. Contributions to the defined contribution (DC) retirement plans are determined in accordance with the terms of the plans. Duke
Capital has contributed $11 million and $21 million to the Westcoast DB plans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively. Duke Capital anticipates that it will make total contributions of approximately $42 million in 2006.
Duke Capital has contributed $1 million and $2 million to the Westcoast DC plans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, and anticipates that it will make total contributions of approximately $4 million in 2006. Duke
Capital has contributed $1 million and $2 million to the Westcoast non-qualified plans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, and anticipates that it will make total contributions of approximately $4 million in 2006.

Duke Energy also sponsors, and Duke Capital participates in, an employee savings plan that covers
substantially all U.S. employees. Duke Capital expensed plan contributions, including amounts allocated by Duke Energy, of $4 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 and $13 million and $12 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.



7. Marketable Securities

During the six months ended June 30, 2006, Duke Energys Natural Gas Transmission business unit received shares of stock as
consideration for settlement of a customers transportation contract. The market value of the equity securities, determined by quoted market prices on the date of receipt, of approximately $23 million is reflected in (Losses) Gains on Sales of
Other Assets and Other, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Subsequent to receipt, these securities were accounted for under SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in
Debt and Equity Securities, as trading securities. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, these securities were sold and an additional gain of approximately $1 million was recognized in Other Income and Expenses, net in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2006.

PART I

DUKE CAPITAL LLC

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements(Continued)



As discussed in Note 1, on April 3, 2006, Duke Capital transferred the operations of Bison to Duke Energy. As a result of this
transfer, Duke Capitals long-term investments, which are classified in Other Investments and Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, decreased approximately $200 million from the amounts reported in Duke Capitals Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.



8. Severance

During the three months ended June 30, 2006, Duke Capital accrued approximately $16 million related to voluntary and involuntary severance as a result of Duke
Energys merger with Cinergy (see Note 1).

As discussed further in Note 10, during the third quarter of 2005, the Board of Directors of Duke
Energy authorized and directed management to execute the sale or disposition of substantially all of DENAs remaining assets and contracts outside the Midwestern United States and certain contractual positions related to the Midwestern assets.
As a result of this exit plan, DENA anticipates involuntary termination of approximately 250 employees by the end of the third quarter of 2006. Management anticipates future severance costs related to this exit plan not included in the following
table will be immaterial.

9. Impairments and Other Charges

International Energy. During the three months ended June 30, 2006, International Energy recorded a $55 million other-than-temporary impairment charge
related to an investment in Compañía de Servicios de Compresión de Campeche, S.A. de C.V. (Campeche), a natural gas compression facility in the Cantarell oil field in the Gulf of Mexico. Campeche project revenues are generated
from the gas compression services agreement (GCSA) with the Mexican National Oil Company (PEMEX). The current GCSA expires on November 7, 2006 and there have been ongoing discussions between Campeche and PEMEX to either sell the Campeche
investment or renew the GCSA. In the second quarter of 2006, based on ongoing discussions with PEMEX, it was determined that there was a limited future need for Campeches gas compression services. Management of International Energy determined
that it is probable that the Campeche investment will ultimately be sold or the GCSA will be renewed for a significantly lower rate. An other-than-temporary impairment loss was recorded to reduce the carrying value to $14 million, which is
managements best estimate of realizable value. The charges consist of a $17 million impairment of the carrying value of the equity method investment, which has been classified within (Losses) Gains on Sales and Impairments of Equity
Investments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, and a $38 million impairment of notes receivable from Campeche, which has been classified within Operations, Maintenance and Other in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006.

Field Services. During the six months ended
June 30, 2005, the Field Services business unit recorded a charge of approximately $120 million due to the reclassification into earnings of pre-tax unrealized losses from accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) as a result of the
discontinuance of certain cash flow hedges entered into to hedge Field Services commodity price risk. See Note 12 for a discussion of the impacts of the DEFS disposition transaction on certain cash flow hedges.

third quarter of 2005, Duke Energys Board of Directors authorized and directed management to execute the sale or disposition of substantially all of DENA remaining assets and contracts outside the Midwestern United States and certain
contractual positions related to the Midwestern assets. The DENA assets to be divested include:

| |  |  | Approximately 6,100 MW of power generation located primarily in the Western and Eastern United States, including all of the commodity contracts (primarily forward gas and power contracts)
related to these facilities,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | All remaining commodity contracts related to DENAs Southeastern generation operations, which were substantially disposed of in 2004, and certain commodity contracts related to
DENAs Midwestern power generation facilities, and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Contracts related to DENAs energy marketing and management activities, which include gas storage and transportation, structured power and other contracts.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As of the September 2005 exit announcement date, management anticipated that additional charges would be incurred related to the exit plan, including termination
costs for gas transportation, storage, structured power and other contracts of approximately $600 million to $800 million, which included approximately $40 million to $60 million of severance, retention and other transaction costs (see Note 8).
Approximately $700 million has been incurred from the announcement date through June 30, 2006, of which approximately $80 million and $240 million was incurred during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, respectively, and
was recognized in Loss From Discontinued Operations, net of tax. Management does not anticipate any additional material charges related to the DENA exit plan.

In January 2006, a Duke Capital subsidiary signed an agreement to sell to LS Power DENAs entire fleet of power generation assets outside the Midwest, representing approximately 6,100 megawatts of power generation located in the
Western and Northeast United States. In May 2006, the transaction with LS Power closed and total proceeds from the sale were approximately $1.56 billion, including certain working capital adjustments. Additional proceeds of up to approximately $40
million are subject to LS Power obtaining certain state regulatory approvals. Subject to the resolution of these contingencies, an additional gain on the disposition of these assets could be recognized in a future period. On July 20, 2006 the
Public Utilities Commission of the State of California approved a toll arrangement related to the Moss Landing facility previously sold to LS Power. Upon successful completion of a 30 day appeals process, LS Power, per the PSA, will make an
additional payment to DENA of approximately $40 million. DENA will record this additional gain on sale of assets when received. This additional gain is expected to be received and recorded in Q3 2006.

As of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, DENAs assets and liabilities to be disposed of under the exit plan were classified as Assets Held for
Sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The results of operations of DENAs Western and Eastern United States generation assets, including
related commodity contracts, certain contracts related to DENAs energy marketing and management activities and certain general and administrative costs, are required to be classified as discontinued operations for current and prior periods in
the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. GAAP requires an ongoing assessment of the continued qualification for discontinued operations presentation for the period up through one year following disposal. While this assessment requires
judgment, management is not currently aware of any matters or events that are likely to occur that would impact the presentation of these operations as discontinued operations.

In the first quarter of 2005, DENAs Grays Harbor facility was sold to an affiliate of Invenergy LLC, resulting in a pre-tax gain of approximately $21 million
(excluding any potential contingent consideration).



Commercial Power

As discussed in Note 1, in April 2006, Duke Capital indirectly transferred its ownership interest in DENAs Midwestern assets to CG&E. As a result, the
results of operations for DENAs Midwestern assets up through April 1, 2006 have been reflected as discontinued operations in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.



International Energy

International Energy held a receivable from Norsk Hydro ASA (Norsk) related to the 2003 sale of International Energys European business. In the first quarter of 2006, based on managements best estimate of recoverability,
International Energy recorded an allowance of approximately $19 million ($12 million after tax) against this receivable, which was recorded in Loss From Discontinued Operations, net of tax on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. This allowance
reduced the carrying value of the receivable to

approximately $24 million at March 31, 2006. During the second quarter of 2006, International Energy and Norsk signed a settlement agreement in which Norsk agreed
to pay International Energy approximately $34 million in full settlement of International Energys receivable. In connection with this settlement, International Energy recorded an approximate $9 million write-up ($5 million after tax) of the
receivable through a reduction in the valuation allowance, which was recorded in Loss From Discontinued Operations, net of tax on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2006. In July 2006, International
Energy received the settlement proceeds.



11. Business Segments

In conjunction with Duke Energys merger with Cinergy, effective with the second quarter ended June 30, 2006, Duke Capital has adopted new business
segments that management believes properly align the various operations of Duke Capital with how the chief operating decision maker views the business. Prior period segment information has been retrospectively adjusted to conform to the new segment
structure. Accordingly, Duke Capitals reportable business segments are as follows:

| |  |  | Natural Gas Transmissionsegment is the same as former Duke Capital business segment
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Field Servicessegment is the same as former Duke Capital business segment
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Commercial PowerDENAs Midwestern operations up to April 3, 2006, at which time the Midwestern assets were transferred to CG&E (previously included in Other)
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | International Energyconsists of Duke Energy International (DEI)
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Crescentsegment is the same as former Duke Capital business segment
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------

Duke Capitals chief operating decision maker regularly reviews financial information about each of these business units in deciding how to allocate resources and evaluate performance. All of the business units are considered
reportable segments under SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. Prior to the September 2005 announcement of the exiting of the majority of DENAs businesses, DENAs operations
were considered a separate reportable segment. There is no aggregation within Duke Capitals defined business segments.

The remainder of Duke
Capitals operations is presented as Other. While it is not considered a business segment, Other primarily includes DENAs discontinued operations, certain billings to affiliates, including certain costs to achieve related to
the merger with Cinergy, certain discontinued hedges, DukeNet Communications, LLC, DEM, DETM and Duke Capitals 50% interest in Duke/Fluor Daniel (D/FD). As discussed in Note 1, Bison was transferred to Duke Energy on April 1, 2006.
Accordingly, the results of operations of Bison are reflected in Other for all periods prior to the transfer.

In February 2005, DEFS sold its
wholly-owned subsidiary TEPPCO GP, which is the general partner of TEPPCO LP, and Duke Capital sold its limited partner interest in TEPPCO LP, in each case to Enterprise GP Holdings LP, an unrelated third party (see Note 2).

During the first quarter of 2005, Duke Capital discontinued hedge accounting for certain contracts related to Field Services commodity price risk and changes
in the fair value of these contracts subsequent to hedge discontinuance have been classified in Other. See Note 12 for further discussion.

Duke
Capitals reportable segments offer different products and services and are managed separately as business units. Accounting policies for Duke Capitals segments are the same as those described in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements in Duke Capitals Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005. Management evaluates segment performance based on earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) from continuing operations, after deducting minority
interest expense related to those profits.

On a segment basis, EBIT excludes discontinued operations, represents all profits from continuing
operations (both operating and non-operating) before deducting interest and taxes, and is net of the minority interest expense related to those profits. Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are managed centrally by Duke Capital, so the
associated realized and unrealized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions and interest and dividend income on those balances are excluded from the segments EBIT.

Transactions between reportable segments are accounted for on the same basis as unaffiliated revenues and expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Financial
Statements.

12. Risk Management Instruments

The following table shows the carrying
value of Duke Capitals derivative portfolio as of June 30, 2006, and December 31, 2005.



Derivative Portfolio Carrying Value

|             |  |               |      |   |                  |   |     |

|             |  |               |      |   |                  |   |     |  
|Total        |  | $             | (112 | ) |                  | $ | (49 | )
|             |  |               |      |   |                  |   |     |  

The amounts in the table above represent the combination of assets and (liabilities) for unrealized gains and
losses on mark-to-market and hedging transactions on Duke Capitals Consolidated Balance Sheets, excluding approximately $222 million of derivative assets and $223 million of derivative liabilities which are presented as assets and liabilities
held for sale at June 30, 2006.

The $44 million decrease in the undesignated derivative portfolio fair value is due primarily to termination of
DENAs sleeved transactions, primarily Barclays, partially offset by realized losses on certain contracts held by Duke Capital related to Field Services commodity price risk. As a result of the transfer of 19.7% interest in DEFS to
ConocoPhillips and the third quarter 2005 deconsolidation of its investment in DEFS, Duke Capital has discontinued hedge accounting for certain contracts held by Duke Capital related to Field Services commodity price risk, which were
previously accounted for as cash flow hedges. These contracts were originally entered into as hedges of forecasted future sales by Field Services, and have been retained as undesignated derivatives. Since discontinuance of hedge accounting, these
contracts have been marked-to-market in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As a result, approximately $250 million of pre-tax losses were recognized in earnings by Duke Capital as of June 30, 2005. These charges have been classified in
the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations as follows: upon discontinuance of hedge accounting approximately $120 million of pre-tax losses were recognized as a component of Impairments and Other Charges, while approximately $20 million
and $130 million of pre-tax losses were recognized prior to the deconsolidation of DEFS as a component of Non-Regulated Electric, Natural Gas, Natural Gas Liquids, and Other Revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005,
respectively. Approximately $21 million and $45 million of realized and unrealized pre-tax losses related to these contracts were recognized in earnings by Duke Capital during the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively as a
component of Other Income and Expenses, net as of a result of Duke Capitals investment in DEFS being accounted for using the equity method. Cash settlements on these contracts during the six months ended June 30, 2006 of approximately $90
million are classified as a component of net cash used in investing activities in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements(Continued)



Included in Other Current Assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 are collateral
assets of approximately $68 million and $1,279 million, respectively. Collateral assets represent cash collateral posted by Duke Capital with other third parties. Included in Other Current Liabilities and Other Deferred Credits and Other Liabilities
in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 are collateral liabilities of approximately $74 million and $608 million, respectively. Collateral liabilities represent cash collateral posted by other third
parties to Duke Capital. Subsequent to December 31, 2005, in connection with the sale to Barclays of contracts related to DENAs Capital marketing and management activities, which included structured power and other contracts, Barclays
provided DENA cash equal to the net collateral posted by DENA under the contracts. Net cash collateral received by Duke Capital in January 2006 was approximately $540 million based on current market prices of the contracts.

During the first quarter of 2005, Duke Capital settled certain hedges which were documented and designated as net investment hedges of the investment in Westcoast
on their scheduled maturity and paid approximately $162 million. Losses recognized on this net investment hedge have been classified in AOCI as a component of foreign currency adjustments and will not be recognized in earnings unless the complete or
substantially complete liquidation of Duke Capitals investment in Westcoast occurs.

Commodity Cash Flow Hedges.Some Duke Capital
subsidiaries are exposed to market fluctuations in the prices of various commodities related to their ongoing power generating and natural gas gathering, distribution, processing and marketing activities. Duke Capital closely monitors the potential
impacts of commodity price changes and, where appropriate, enters into contracts to protect margins for a portion of future sales and generation revenues and fuel expenses. Duke Capital uses commodity instruments, such as swaps, futures, forwards
and options as cash flow hedges for natural gas, electricity and natural gas liquid transactions. Duke Capitals hedging exposures to the price variability of these commodities does not extend beyond one year.

As of June 30, 2006, $24 million of the pre-tax deferred net losses on derivative instruments related to commodity cash flow hedges were accumulated on the
Consolidated Balance Sheet in AOCI, and are expected to be recognized in earnings during the next 12 months as the hedged transactions occur. However, due to the volatility of the commodities markets, the corresponding value in AOCI will likely
change prior to its reclassification into earnings.

The ineffective portion of commodity cash flow hedges resulted in the recognition of a pre-tax
gain of approximately $9 million and an immaterial amount in the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, as compared to a pre-tax loss of approximately $11 million and $30 million in the three and six months ended June 30,
2005, respectively. The amount recognized for transactions that no longer qualified as cash flow hedges was a pre-tax loss of approximately $67 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and was a pre-tax loss of approximately $120 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2005, and are reported in Loss From Discontinued Operations, net of tax and Impairments and Other Charges in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, respectively.

Commodity Fair Value Hedges. Some Duke Capital subsidiaries are exposed to changes in the fair value of some unrecognized firm commitments to sell generated
power or natural gas due to market fluctuations in the underlying commodity prices. Duke Capital actively evaluates changes in the fair value of such unrecognized firm commitments due to commodity price changes and, where appropriate, uses various
instruments to hedge its market risk. These commodity instruments, such as swaps, futures and forwards, serve as fair value hedges for the firm commitments associated with generated power. The ineffective portion of commodity fair value hedges
resulted in an immaterial amount and a pre-tax gain of $7 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, as compared to immaterial amounts in the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively.



13. Regulatory Matters

Natural Gas Transmission.Rate Related Information. In November 2005, The British Columbia Pipeline System (BC Pipeline) filed an application with the
National Energy Board (NEB) for interim and final tolls for 2006. In December 2005, the NEB approved the 2006 interim tolls as filed and BC Pipeline started negotiations with its shippers to reach a settlement on final tolls for years 2006 and 2007.
BC Pipeline reached a toll settlement agreement in principle with its customers for the 2006 and 2007 fiscal years on March 30, 2006. The toll settlement agreement was approved by the NEB on August 17, 2006.

Union Gas has rates that are approved by the OEB. Effective January 1, 2006, Union Gas implemented new rates approved by the OEB in December 2005, reflecting
items previously approved. Union Gas earnings for 2006 continue to be subject to the earnings sharing mechanism implemented by the OEB in 2005.

In December 2005, Union Gas filed an application with the OEB for new rates effective January 1, 2007. In May 2006, Union Gas
reached a comprehensive agreement with intervenors on all financial issues, except storage regulation and Demand Side Management (DSM), and on most non-financial issues. Storage regulation and DSM are being addressed through separate proceedings
initiated by the OEB. The OEB accepted this agreement on May 23, 2006. The result of the agreement is an average rate increase of approximately 2.7% effective January 1, 2007. The agreement includes an increase in the common equity
component of Union Gas capital structure, from 35% to 36%. A decision on the remaining non-financial issues was issued by the OEB on June 29, 2006. Rates for the sale of gas are adjusted quarterly to reflect updated commodity price
forecasts. The difference between the approved and the actual cost of gas incurred in the current period is deferred for future recover from or return to customers, subject to approval by the OEB. These differences are directly flowed through to
customers and, therefore, no rate of return is earned on the related deferred balances. The OEBs review and approval of these gas purchase costs primarily considers the prudence of the cost incurred.

Effective January 1, 2005, new rates (interim rates) for Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline L.L.C. (M&N) took effect, subject to refund, as a result
of a rate case filed by M&N in 2004. In June 2005, a settlement agreement to resolve the proceeding was reached with customers that would provide for a rate increase over rates charged prior to January 1, 2005. On May 15, 2006 the FERC
issued an order approving the settlement agreement. In June 2006, M&N refunded the difference between the settlement rates and the interim rates, plus interest, to each shipper due a refund.

Management believes that the effects of these matters will have no material adverse effect on Duke Capitals future consolidated results of operations, cash
flows or financial position.



14. Commitments and Contingencies

Environmental

Duke Capital is subject to international, federal, state
and local regulations regarding air and water quality, hazardous and solid waste disposal and other environmental matters.

Remediation
activities. Like others in the energy industry, Duke Capital and its affiliates are responsible for environmental remediation at various contaminated sites. These include some properties that are part of ongoing Duke Capital operations, sites
formerly owned or used by Duke Capital entities, and sites owned by third parties. Remediation typically involves management of contaminated soils and may involve groundwater remediation. Managed in conjunction with relevant federal, state and local
agencies, activities vary with site conditions and locations, remedial requirements, complexity and sharing of responsibility. If remediation activities involve statutory joint and several liability provisions, strict liability, or cost recovery or
contribution actions, Duke Capital or its affiliates could potentially be held responsible for contamination caused by other parties. In some instances, Duke Capital may share liability associated with contamination with other potentially
responsible parties, and may also benefit from insurance policies or contractual indemnities that cover some or all cleanup costs. All of these sites generally are managed in the normal course of business or affiliate operations. Management believes
that completion or resolution of these matters will have no material adverse effect on Duke Capitals consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Extended Environmental Activities, Accruals. Included in Other Current Liabilities and Other Deferred Credits and Other Liabilities on the Consolidated
Balance Sheets were total accruals related to extended environmental-related activities of approximately $50 million as of both June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005. These accruals represent Duke Capitals provisions for costs
associated with remediation activities at some of its current and former sites, as well as other relevant environmental contingent liabilities. Management believes that completion or resolution of these matters will have no material adverse effect
on Duke Capitals consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.



Litigation

Western Energy and Natural Gas Litigation and Regulatory Matters. Duke Capital and several of its affiliates, as
well as other energy companies, are parties to 34 lawsuits filed by or on behalf of electricity and/or natural gas purchasers in several Western states. Many of the suits seek class-action certification. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants
conspired to manipulate the electricity and/or natural gas markets in violation of state and/or federal antitrust, unfair business practices and other laws. Plaintiffs in some of the cases further allege that such activities, including engaging in
round trip trades, providing false information to natural gas trade publications and unlawfully exchanging information, resulted in artificially high energy prices. Plaintiffs seek aggregate damages or restitution of billions of

dollars from the defendants. Six of these cases were dismissed on filed rate and/or federal preemption grounds, and the plaintiffs in each of these dismissed cases
have appealed their respective rulings to the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. It is not possible to predict with certainty whether Duke Capital will incur any liability or to estimate the damages, if any, that Duke Capital might incur in
connection with these lawsuits, but Duke Capital does not presently believe the outcome of these matters will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

In 2002, Southern California Edison Company (SCE) initiated arbitration proceedings regarding disputes with DETM relating to amounts owed in connection with the
termination of bi-lateral power contracts between the parties in early 2001. This matter proceeded to hearing in November 2005. In January 2006, the parties reached an agreement in principle to resolve the matters at issue in the arbitration. The
parties entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release dated as of March 10, 2006, and on March 24, 2006, DETM paid the settlement amount, including interest, into escrow. The agreement will require regulatory approval. Based on
the terms of the Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release, Duke Capital does not expect that the resolution of this matter will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Trading Related Litigation. Commencing August 2003, plaintiffs filed three class-action lawsuits in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New
York on behalf of entities who bought and sold natural gas futures and options contracts on the New York Mercantile Exchange during the years 2000 through 2002. DETM, along with numerous other entities, is named as a defendant. The plaintiffs claim
that the defendants violated the Commodity Exchange Act by reporting false and misleading trading information to trade publications, resulting in monetary losses to the plaintiffs. Plaintiffs seek class action certification, unspecified damages and
other relief. On September 24, 2004, the court denied a motion to dismiss the plaintiffs claims filed on behalf of DETM and other defendants, and on September 30, 2005, the court certified the class. Duke Capital has reached an
agreement with the plaintiffs in these consolidated cases to resolve all issues and on February 8, 2006, the court granted preliminary approval of this settlement. The Final Judgment and Order of Dismissal were entered in May 2006. The
resolution of this matter did not have a material adverse effect on Duke Capitals consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

On January 28, 2005, four plaintiffs filed suit in Tennessee Chancery Court against Duke Capital affiliates and other energy companies seeking class action certification on behalf of indirect purchasers of natural gas who allege that
they have been harmed by defendants manipulation of the natural gas markets by various means, including providing false information to natural gas trade publications and unlawfully exchanging information, resulting in artificially high natural
gas prices paid by plaintiffs in the State of Tennessee. Alleging that defendants violated state antitrust laws and other laws, plaintiffs seek unspecified damages and other relief. Duke Capital is unable to express an opinion regarding the probable
outcome of these matters at this time.

On August 8, 2005, a plaintiff filed a lawsuit in state court in Kansas against Duke Capital and DETM, as
well as other energy companies. On September 26, 2005, a class action petition was filed in state court in Kansas and on May 19, 2006 another class action petition was filed in Colorado state court. These cases were also filed against Duke
Capital and DETM, as well as other energy companies. Each of these cases contains similar claims, that the respective plaintiffs were harmed by the defendants alleged manipulation of the natural gas markets by various means, including
providing false information to natural gas trade publications and entering into unlawful arrangements and agreements in violation of the antitrust laws of the respective states. Plaintiffs seek damages in unspecified amounts. Duke Capital is unable
to express an opinion regarding the probable outcome of these matters at this time.

Trading Related Investigations.Beginning in February 2004, Duke Capital has received requests for information from the U.S.
Attorneys office in Houston focused on the natural gas price reporting activities of certain individuals involved in DETM trading operations. Duke Capital has cooperated with the government in this investigation and is unable to express an
opinion regarding the probable outcome at this time.

Sonatrach/Sonatrading Arbitration. Duke Energy LNG Sales Inc. (Duke LNG) claims in an
arbitration commenced in January 2001 in London that Sonatrach, the Algerian state-owned energy company, together with its subsidiary, Sonatrading Amsterdam B.V. (Sonatrading), breached their shipping obligations under a liquefied natural gas (LNG)
purchase agreement and related transportation agreements (the LNG Agreements) relating to Duke LNGs purchase of LNG from Algeria and its transportation by LNG tanker to Lake Charles, Louisiana. Duke LNG seeks damages of approximately $27
million. Sonatrading and Sonatrach, on the other hand, claim that Duke LNG repudiated the LNG Agreements by allegedly failing to diligently perform LNG marketing obligations. Sonatrading and Sonatrach seek damages in the amount of approximately $250
million. In 2003, an arbitration tribunal issued a Partial Award on liability issues, finding that Sonatrach and Sonatrading breached their obligations to provide shipping. The tribunal also found that Duke LNG breached the LNG Purchase Agreement by
failing to perform marketing obligations. The final hearing on damages was concluded in March 2006 and the parties are awaiting a ruling from the tribunal.

Citrus Trading Corporation (Citrus) Litigation. In conjunction with the Sonatrach LNG Agreements, Duke LNG entered into a natural gas purchase contract (the Citrus Agreement) with Citrus. Citrus filed a lawsuit in March 2003 in the
U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas against Duke LNG and PanEnergy Corp alleging that Duke LNG breached the Citrus Agreement by failing to provide sufficient volumes of gas to Citrus. Duke LNG contends that Sonatrach caused Duke
LNG to experience a loss of LNG supply that affected Duke LNGs obligations and termination rights under the Citrus Agreement. Citrus seeks monetary damages and a judicial determination that Duke LNG did not experience such a loss. After Citrus
filed its lawsuit, Duke LNG terminated the Citrus Agreement and filed a counterclaim asserting that Citrus had breached the agreement by, among other things, failing to provide sufficient security under a letter of credit for the gas transactions.
Citrus denies that Duke LNG had the right to terminate the agreement and contends that Duke LNGs termination of the agreement was itself a breach, entitling Citrus to terminate the agreement and recover damages in the amount of approximately
$187 million. The Court has made rulings regarding the issues of fact and law that remain for trial, and the parties have jointly requested a trial setting in December 2006. It is not possible to predict with certainty whether Duke Capital will
incur any liability or to estimate the damages, if any, that Duke Capital might incur in connection with the Sonatrach and Citrus matters.

Exxon
Mobil Disputes. In April 2004, Mobil Natural Gas, Inc. (MNGI) and 3946231 Canada, Inc. (3946231, and collectively with MNGI, Exxon Mobil) filed a Demand for Arbitration against Duke Capital, DETMI, DTMSI Management Ltd. (DTMSI) and other
affiliates of Duke Capital. MNGI and DETMI are the sole members of DETM. DTMSI and 3946231 are the sole beneficial owners of Duke Energy Marketing Limited Partnership (DEMLP, and with DETM, the Ventures). Among other allegations, Exxon Mobil alleges
that DETMI and DTMSI engaged in wrongful actions relating to affiliate trading, payment of service fees, expense allocations and distribution of earnings in breach of agreements and fiduciary duties relating to the Ventures. Exxon Mobil seeks to
recover actual damages, plus attorneys fees and exemplary damages; aggregate damages were not specified in the arbitration demand. Duke Capital denies these allegations, and has filed counterclaims asserting that Exxon Mobil breached its
Venture obligations and other contractual obligations. By order dated May 2, 2005, the arbitrators granted Duke Capitals Motion for Partial Summary Judgment, effectively eliminating a significant portion of Exxon Mobils claims.
Exxon Mobil filed a motion for reconsideration of the ruling as well as for an extension of the date for the arbitration hearing. Exxon Mobil also filed a motion to dismiss certain of Duke Capitals counterclaims. Following a hearing in
December 2005 on the motion for reconsideration, the arbitrators issued their ruling on January 26, 2006, generally reaffirming the original order, with a limited exception with respect to affiliate trades that is not expected to have a
significant impact on the case. The panel also dismissed one of Duke Capitals counterclaims. In response to a request from Exxon Mobil, the arbitration panel has postponed the commencement date of the arbitration hearing from January 2006 to
October 2006 in Houston, Texas. In August 2004, DEMLP initiated arbitration proceedings in Canada against certain Exxon Mobil entities asserting that those entities wrongfully terminated two gas supply agreements with the DEMLP and wrongfully failed
to assume certain related gas supply agreements with other parties. A hearing in the Canadian arbitration was held in March 2006. The arbitrators issued their award in June, 2006 finding that (1) the two gas supply agreements were improperly
terminated by ExxonMobil; but (2) ExxonMobil was not required to take assignment of the related third party gas supply agreements. If DEMLP and ExxonMobil cannot agree on the damages to be paid as the result of the first ruling, the issue will
be decided by the same panel of arbitrators. At this time Duke Capital is unable to estimate the amount of any damage award to be received in resolution of this matter. The gas supply agreements with other parties, under which DEMLP continues to
remain obligated, are currently estimated to result in losses of between $100 million and $150 million through 2011. However, these losses are subject to adjustment in the future in the event of changes in market conditions and underlying
assumptions.

Other Litigation and Legal Proceedings. Duke Capital and its subsidiaries are involved in other legal, tax and regulatory
proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which involve substantial amounts. Management believes that the final disposition of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on Duke Capitals consolidated
results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Duke Capital has exposure to certain legal matters that are described herein. As of
June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, Duke Capital has recorded reserves of approximately $65 million and $150 million, respectively, for these proceedings and exposures. Duke Capital has insurance coverage for certain of these losses
incurred. These reserves represent managements best estimate of probable loss as defined by SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies.

Duke Capital expenses legal costs related to the defense of loss contingencies as incurred.



Other Commitments and Contingencies

Other. As part of its normal business, Duke Capital is a party to various
financial guarantees, performance guarantees and other contractual commitments to extend guarantees of credit and other assistance to various subsidiaries, investees and other third parties. To varying degrees, these guarantees involve elements of
performance and credit risk, which are not included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The possibility of Duke Capital having to honor its contingencies is largely dependent upon future operations of various subsidiaries, investees and other third
parties, or the occurrence of certain future events. (For further information see Note 15.)

In addition, Duke Capital enters into various
fixed-price, non-cancelable commitments to purchase or sell power (tolling arrangements or power purchase contracts), take-or-pay arrangements, transportation or throughput agreements and other contracts that may or may not be recognized on the
Consolidated Balance Sheets. Some of these arrangements may be recognized at market value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as trading contracts or qualifying hedge positions included in Unrealized Gains or Losses on Mark-to-Market and Hedging
Transactions.

See Note 15 for discussion of Calpine guarantee obligation.



15. Guarantees and Indemnifications

Duke
Capital and its subsidiaries have various financial and performance guarantees and indemnifications which are issued in the normal course of business. As discussed below, these contracts include performance guarantees, stand-by letters of credit,
debt guarantees, surety bonds and indemnifications. Duke Capital and its subsidiaries enter into these arrangements to facilitate a commercial transaction with a third party by enhancing the value of the transaction to the third party.

Duke Capital has issued performance guarantees to customers and other third parties that guarantee the payment and performance of other parties, including
certain non-wholly-owned entities. The maximum potential amount of future payments Duke Capital could have been required to make under these performance guarantees as of June 30, 2006 was approximately $637 million. Of this amount,
approximately $408 million relates to guarantees of the payment and performance of less than wholly-owned consolidated entities. Approximately $332 million of the performance guarantees expire between 2006 and 2007, with the remaining performance
guarantees expiring after 2007 or having no contractual expiration. Additionally, Duke Capital has issued joint and several guarantees to some of the D/FD project owners, guaranteeing the performance of D/FD under its engineering, procurement and
construction contracts and other contractual commitments. These guarantees have no contractual expiration and no stated maximum amount of future payments that Duke Capital could be required to make. Additionally, Fluor Enterprises Inc., as 50% owner
in D/FD, has issued similar joint and several guarantees to the same D/FD project owners. In accordance with the D/FD partnership agreement, each of the partners is responsible for 50% of any payments to be made under those guarantees.

Duke Capital has issued guarantees to customers or other third parties related to the payment or performance obligations of certain entities that were previously
wholly-owned by Duke Capital but which have been sold to third parties, such as DukeSolutions, Inc. (DukeSolutions) and Duke Engineering & Services, Inc. (DE&S). These guarantees are primarily related to payment of lease obligations,
debt obligations, and performance guarantees related to provision of goods and services. Duke Capital has received back-to-back indemnification from the buyer of DE&S indemnifying Duke Capital for any amounts paid by Duke Capital related to the
DE&S guarantees. Duke Capital also received indemnification from the buyer of DukeSolutions for the first $2.5 million paid by Duke Capital related to the DukeSolutions guarantees. Further, Duke Capital granted indemnification to the buyer of
DukeSolutions with respect to losses arising under some energy services agreements retained by DukeSolutions after the sale, provided that the buyer agreed to bear 100% of the

performance risk and 50% of any other risk up to an aggregate maximum of $2.5 million (less any amounts paid by the buyer under the indemnity discussed above).
Additionally, for certain performance guarantees, Duke Capital has recourse to subcontractors involved in providing services to a customer. These guarantees have various terms ranging from 2006 to 2021, with others having no specific term. Duke
Capital is unable to estimate the total maximum potential amount of future payments under these guarantees, since some of the underlying agreements have no limits on potential liability.

Westcoast has issued performance guarantees to third parties guaranteeing the performance of unconsolidated entities, such as equity method investments, and of
entities previously sold by Westcoast to third parties. Those guarantees require Westcoast to make payment to the guaranteed third party upon the failure of such unconsolidated or sold entity to make payment under some of its contractual
obligations, such as debt, purchase contracts and leases. The maximum potential amount of future payments Westcoast could have been required to make under those performance guarantees as of June 30, 2006 was approximately $15 million. Of those
guarantees, approximately $10 million expire in 2006, with the remainder having no contractual expiration.

Duke Capital uses bank-issued stand-by
letters of credit to secure the performance of non-wholly-owned entities to a third party or customer. Under these arrangements, Duke Capital has payment obligations to the issuing bank which are triggered by a draw by the third party or customer
due to the failure of the non-wholly-owned entity to perform according to the terms of its underlying contract. The maximum potential amount of future payments Duke Capital could have been required to make under these letters of credit as of
June 30, 2006 was approximately $25 million. Substantially all of these letters of credit were issued on behalf of less than wholly-owned consolidated entities and expire in 2006 or 2007.

In connection with Duke Capitals sale of the Murray merchant generation facility to KGen, in August 2004, Duke Capital guaranteed in favor of a bank the
repayment of any draws under a $120 million letter of credit issued by the bank to Georgia Power Company. The letter of credit, which expires in 2006, is related to the obligation of a KGen subsidiary under a seven-year power sales agreement,
commencing in May 2005. Duke Capital will be required to ensure reissuance of this letter of credit or issue similar credit support until the power sales agreement expires in 2012. Duke Capital will operate the sold Murray facility under an
operation and maintenance agreement with the KGen subsidiary. As a result, the guarantee has an immaterial fair value. Further, KGen has agreed to indemnify Duke Capital for any payments Duke Capital makes with respect to the $120 million letter of
credit.

Duke Capital has guaranteed certain issuers of surety bonds, obligating itself to make payment upon the failure of a non-wholly-owned entity
to honor its obligations to a third party. As of June 30, 2006, Duke Capital had guaranteed approximately $15 million of outstanding surety bonds related to obligations of non-wholly-owned entities. The majority of these bonds expire in various
amounts in 2006.

In 1999, IDC issued approximately $100 million in bonds to purchase equipment for lease to Hidalgo, a subsidiary of Duke Capital.
Duke Capital unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed the lease payments of Hidalgo to IDC through 2028. In 2000, Hidalgo was sold to Calpine Corporation and Duke Capital remained obligated under the lease guaranty. In January 2006, Hidalgo and
its subsidiaries filed for bankruptcy protection in connection with the previous bankruptcy filing by its parent, Calpine Corporation in December 2005. Gross, undiscounted exposure under the guarantee obligation as of June 30, 2006 is
approximately $200 million, which includes principal and interest. Duke Capital does not believe a loss under the guarantee obligation is probable as of June 30, 2006, but continues to evaluate the situation. Therefore, no reserves have been
recorded for any contingent loss as of June 30, 2006. No demands for payment of principal or interest have been made under the guarantee. If future losses are incurred under the guarantee, Duke Capital has certain rights which should allow it
to mitigate such loss.

Natural Gas Transmission, International Energy, and Crescent have issued guarantees of debt and performance guarantees
associated with non-consolidated entities and less than wholly-owned consolidated entities. If such entities were to default on payments or performance, Natural Gas Transmission, International Energy, or Crescent would be required under the
guarantees to make payment on the obligation of the less than wholly-owned entity. As of June 30, 2006, Natural Gas Transmission was the guarantor of approximately $18 million of debt at Westcoast associated with less than wholly-owned
entities, which expire in 2019. International Energy was the guarantor of approximately $13 million of performance guarantees associated with less than wholly-owned entities. Substantially all of these guarantees expire between 2006 and 2008.
Crescent was the guarantor of approximately $15 million of debt associated with less than wholly-owned entities, which expire in 2006.

Duke Capital
has entered into various indemnification agreements related to purchase and sale agreements and other types of contractual agreements with vendors and other third parties. These agreements typically cover environmental, tax, litigation and other
mat

ters, as well as breaches of representations, warranties and covenants. Typically, claims may be made by third parties for various periods of time, depending on the
nature of the claim. Duke Capitals potential exposure under these indemnification agreements can range from a specified amount, such as the purchase price, to an unlimited dollar amount, depending on the nature of the claim and the particular
transaction. Duke Capital is unable to estimate the total potential amount of future payments under these indemnification agreements due to several factors, such as the unlimited exposure under certain guarantees.

As discussed in Note 1, in connection with the transfer of DENAs Midwestern assets to CG&E, Duke Capital and CG&E entered into an arrangement through
April 2016, unless otherwise extended by the parties, whereby Duke Capital will reimburse CG&E in the event of certain cash shortfalls that may result from CG&Es ownership of the Midwestern assets. Duke Capital is unable to estimate
total maximum potential amount of future payments under this financial performance guarantee, however payments made under this agreement are not expected to be significant.

As of June 30, 2006, the amounts recorded for the guarantees and indemnifications mentioned above are immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate.

In June 2006, the Board of Directors of Duke Energy authorized management to pursue a plan to create two separate publicly traded companies by
spinning off Duke Energys natural gas business to Duke Energy shareholders. The new gas company, which has yet to be named, would consist of Duke Capitals Natural Gas Transmission businesses segment, which would include Duke
Capitals 50-percent ownership interest in DEFS. Duke Energy is targeting a January 1, 2007 effective date for the transaction. As a result of the spin-off, Duke Capital is expected to indemnify Duke Energy for any amounts paid under
existing guarantees of wholly-owned subsidiaries that will become guarantees of third party performance upon the separation of the gas and power businesses.



16. Members Equity and Related Party Transactions

As discussed in
Note 2, in February 2005, DEFS sold its wholly-owned subsidiary TEPPCO GP, the general partner of TEPPCO Partners, L.P. (TEPPCO), for approximately $1.1 billion and Duke Capital sold its limited partner interest in TEPPCO for approximately $100
million. Prior to the completion of these sale transactions, Duke Capital accounted for its investment in TEPPCO under the equity method of accounting. For the three months ended March 31, 2005, TEPPCO had operating revenues of approximately
$1,524 million, operating expenses of approximately $1,463 million, operating income of approximately $61 million, income from continuing operations of approximately $46 million, and net income of approximately $47 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2006, Duke Capital advanced approximately $86 million to its parent, Duke Energy, and forgave advances to Duke Energy of
approximately $503 million. The advance is presented as Advances to Parent within financing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The advance forgiveness has been presented as a non-cash
financing activity within the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2006.

During the six months ended June 30,
2006, Duke Capital distributed $590 million to Duke Energy to provide funding support for Duke Energys second quarter dividend and accelerated share repurchase plan. During the six months ended June 30, 2005, Duke Capital distributed
$1,050 million to Duke Energy to provide funding for the execution of Duke Energys accelerated share acquisition plan. The distribution was principally obtained from Duke Capitals portion of the cash proceeds realized from the sale by
DEFS of TEPPCO GP and Duke Capitals sale of its limited partner interest in TEPPCO, noted above.

During 2004, $267 million of cash advances
were received by Duke Capital from Duke Energy as a partial return of the income tax benefit associated with the transfer of deferred tax assets to Duke Energy in 2004. During the first quarter of 2005, Duke Energy forgave these advances of $267
million and Duke Capital classified the $267 million as an addition to Members Equity. This forgiveness has been presented as a non-cash financing activity in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31,
2005.

For the three months ended June 30, 2006, and 2005, Duke Capital recorded income in the amount of approximately $18 million and $41 million, respectively,
related to a management fee charged to an unconsolidated affiliate of Duke Capital. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, and 2005, Duke Capital recorded income in the amount of approximately $36 million and $81 million, respectively, related
to management fees charged to an unconsolidated affiliate of Duke Capital. These amounts are recorded in Other Income and Expenses, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Previously, these amounts were recorded as a reduction of
Operation, Maintenance and Other within Operating Expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to Other Income and Expenses, net to conform to the 2006 presentation. Additionally, for the three

expenses in the amount of $334 million and $218 million, respectively. These amounts represent recoveries of direct and allocated corporate governance and shared service costs charged to unconsolidated affiliates and are reflected as an offset
within Operation, Maintenance, and Other and Depreciation and Amortization within Operating Expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Also included in Operations, Maintenance and Other within Operating Expenses in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2006 is approximately $7 million of allocated costs charged to Duke Capital by an affiliate of Cinergy.

For the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, net revenues of approximately $4 million and $1 million, respectively, are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and primarily consist of settlements to Duke
Energy or its affiliates for NGLs, gas hedges and insurance premiums. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, net expenses of approximately $12 million and net revenues of $1 million, respectively, are included in the Consolidated

In July 2005, Duke Energy caused a Duke Capital subsidiary to complete the transfer of a 19.7% interest in DEFS to ConocoPhillips,
Duke Energys co-equity owner in DEFS, which reduced Duke Capitals ownership interest in DEFS from 69.7% to 50% and resulted in Duke Capital and ConocoPhillips becoming equal 50% owners of DEFS. As a result of this transaction, Duke
Capital deconsolidated its investment in DEFS and subsequently has accounted for the investment using the equity method of accounting (see Note 2). Duke Capitals 50% of equity in earnings of DEFS for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2006 was approximately $149 million and $295 million, respectively, and Duke Capitals investment in DEFS as of June 30, 2006 was $1,371 million, which is included in Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates in the
accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three months ended June 30, 2006, Duke Capital had gas sales to, purchases from, and other operating expenses from affiliates of DEFS of approximately $35 million, $1 million and $3 million,
respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, Duke Capital had gas sales to, purchases from, and other operating expenses from affiliates of DEFS of approximately $69 million, $9 million and $7 million, respectively. Additionally,
Duke Capital received approximately $230 million in distributions of earnings from DEFS in 2006, which are included in Other, assets within Cash Flows from Operating Activities in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Duke Capital
has recognized an approximate $77 million receivable as of June 30, 2006 due to its share of a distribution declared by DEFS in June 2006 but paid in July 2006. Summary financial information for DEFS, which is accounted for under the equity
method, as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 is as follows:

DEFS is a limited liability company which is a pass-through entity for U.S. income tax purposes. DEFS also
owns corporations who file their own respective, federal, foreign and state income tax returns and income tax expense related to these corporations is included in the income tax expense of DEFS. Therefore, DEFS net income does not include
income taxes for earnings which are pass-through to the members based upon their ownership percentage and Duke Capital recognizes the tax impacts of its share of DEFS pass-through earnings in its income tax expense from continuing operations
in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Duke Capital has entered into an agreement to sell 100% of the shares of Westcoast Gas
Services, Inc. (WGSI), which owns interests in four gas processing plants and related gas gathering systems, to the Duke Energy Income Fund (Income Fund) for approximately $128 million. The Income Fund is a Canadian income trust that was created in
December 2005, and the sale of WGSI reduced Duke Capitals ownership interest in the Income Fund from approximately 58% to approximately 46%. Closing of the sale is conditional upon approval by the fund unitholders, other than Duke Capital, and
its affiliates and is expected to occur during the third quarter of 2006.

17. New Accounting Standards

The following
new accounting standards were adopted by Duke Capital subsequent to June 30, 2005 and the impact of such adoption, if applicable, has been presented in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements:

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assetsan amendment of APB Opinion No. 29 (SFAS
No. 153). In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153 which amends APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions, by eliminating the exception to the fair-value principle for exchanges of similar
productive assets, which were accounted for under APB Opinion No. 29 based on the book value of the asset surrendered with no gain or loss recognition. SFAS No. 153 also eliminates APB Opinion No. 29s concept of culmination of
an earnings process. The amendment requires that an exchange of nonmonetary assets be accounted for at fair value if the exchange has commercial substance and fair value is determinable within reasonable limits. Commercial substance is assessed by
comparing the entitys expected cash flows immediately before and after the exchange. If the difference is significant, the transaction is considered to have commercial substance and should be recognized at fair value. SFAS No. 153 is
effective for nonmonetary transactions occurring on or after July 1, 2005. The adoption of SFAS No. 153 did not have a material impact on Duke Capitals consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

FASB Interpretation No. 47 Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations (FIN 47).In March 2005, the FASB issued FIN
47, which clarifies the accounting for conditional asset retirement obligations as used in SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. A conditional asset retirement obligation is an unconditional legal obligation to
perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and (or) method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. Therefore, an entity is required to recognize a liability for the fair
value of a conditional asset retirement obligation under SFAS No. 143 if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The provisions of FIN 47 were effective for Duke Capital as of December 31, 2005.

FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. APB 18-1, Accounting by an Investor for Its Proportionate Share of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income of an Investee
Accounted for under the Equity Method in Accordance with APB Opinion No. 18 upon a Loss of Significant Influence (FSP No. APB 18-1). In July of 2005, the FASB staff issued FSP No. APB 18-1 which provides guidance for how an investor
should account for its proportionate share of an investees equity adjustments for other comprehensive income (OCI) upon a loss of significant influence. APB Opinion No. 18, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common
Stock (APB Opinion No. 18), requires a transaction of an equity method investee of a capital nature be accounted for as if the investee were a consolidated subsidiary, which requires the investor to record its proportionate share of the
investees adjustments for OCI as increases or decreases to the investment account with corresponding adjustments in equity. FSP No. APB 18-1 requires that an investors proportionate share of an investees equity adjustments for OCI
should be offset against the carrying value of the investment at the time significant influence is lost and equity method accounting is no longer appropriate. However, to the extent that the offset results in a carrying value of the investment that
is less than zero, an investor should (a) reduce the carrying value of the investment to zero and (b) record the remaining balance in income. The guidance in FSP No. APB 18-1 was effective for Duke Capital beginning October 1, 2005.
The adoption of FSP No. APB 18-1 did not have a material impact on Duke Capitals consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

SFAS No. 123(R). Share-Based Payment.In December of 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), which replaces SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25. SFAS No. 123(R) requires all
share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values. For Duke Energy, timing for implementation of SFAS No. 123(R) was January 1, 2006. The
pro forma disclosures previously permitted under SFAS No. 123 are no longer an acceptable alternative. Instead, Duke Energy is required to determine an appropriate expense for stock options and record compensation expense in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations for stock options. Duke Energy implemented SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method, which required Duke Capital to record compensation expense for all unvested awards beginning January 1,
2006.

Duke Capital currently also has retirement eligible employees with outstanding share-based payment awards (unvested stock awards, stock based
performance awards and phantom stock awards). Compensation cost related to those awards was previously expensed over the stated vesting period or until actual retirement occurred. Effective January 1, 2006, Duke Capital is required to recognize
compensation cost for new awards granted to employees over the requisite service period, which generally begins on the date the award is granted through the earlier of the date the award vests or the date the employee becomes retirement eligible.
Awards, including stock options, granted to employees that are already retirement eligible will be deemed to have vested immediately upon issuance, and therefore, compensation cost for those awards will be recognized on the date such awards are
granted.

SFAS No. 123(R), which was adopted by Duke Energy effective January 1, 2006, is not anticipated to have a material impact on
its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position in 2006 based on awards outstanding as of the implementation date. However, the impact to Duke Capital in periods subsequent to adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) will be largely
dependent upon the nature of any new share-based compensation awards issued to employees. (See Note 3).

FSP No. FAS 123(R)-4, Classification
of Options and Similar Instruments Issued as Employee Compensation That Allow for Cash Settlement upon the Occurrence of a Contingent Event.In February 2006, the FASB staff issued FSP No. 123(R)-4 to address the classification of
options and similar instruments issued as employee compensation that allow for cash settlement upon the occurrence of a contingent event. The guidance amends SFAS No. 123(R). FSP FAS No. 123(R)-4 provides that cash settlement features that
can be exercised only upon the occurrence of a contingent event that is outside the employees control does not require classifying the option or similar instrument as a liability until it becomes probable that the event will occur. FSP FAS
No. 123(R)-4 applies only to options or similar instruments issued as part of employee compensation arrangements. The guidance in FSP FAS No. 123(R)-4 was effective for Duke Capital as of April 1, 2006. Duke Capital adopted SFAS
No. 123(R) as of January 1, 2006 (see Note 3). The adoption of FSP FAS No. FAS 123(R)-4 did not have a material impact on Duke Capitals consolidated statement of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 107, Share-Based Payment (SAB 107). On March 29, 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
staff issued SAB 107 to express the views of the staff regarding the interaction between SFAS No. 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations and to provide the staffs views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for
public companies. Duke Capital adopted SFAS No. 123(R) and SAB 107 effective January 1, 2006.

FSP No. FAS 115-1 and 124-1, The
Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and its Application to Certain Investments.The FASB issued FSP No. FAS 115-1 and 124-1 in November 2005 which was effective for Duke Capital beginning January 1, 2006. This FSP addresses the
determination as to when an investment is considered impaired, whether that impairment is other than temporary, and the measurement of an impairment loss. This FSP also includes accounting considerations subsequent to the recognition of an
other-than-temporary impairment and requires certain disclosures about unrealized losses that have not been recognized as other-than-temporary impairments. The guidance in this FSP amends SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, and SFAS No. 124, Accounting for Certain Investments Held by Not-for-Profit Organizations, and APB Opinion No. 18, The Equity Method of Accounting for
Investments in Common Stock. The adoption of FSP No. FAS 115-1 and 124-1 did not have a material impact on Duke Capitals consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

The following new accounting standards have been issued, but have not yet been adopted by Duke Capital as of June 30, 2006:

SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instrumentsan amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140.In February
2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, which amends SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activitiesand SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities. SFAS No. 155 allows financial instruments that have embedded derivatives to be accounted for at fair value at acquisition, at issuance, or when a previously recognized financial instrument is subject to
a remeasurement (new basis) event, on an instrument-by-instrument basis, in cases in which a derivative would otherwise have to be bifurcated. This Statement is effective for Duke Capital for all financial instruments acquired, issued, or subject to
remeasurement after January 1, 2007, and for certain hybrid financial instruments that have been bifurcated prior to the effective date, for which the effect is to be reported as a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings.
Duke Capital does not anticipate the adoption of SFAS No. 155 will have any material impact on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assetsan amendment of FASB Statement No. 140. In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS
No. 156, which amends SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.SFAS No 156 requires recognition of a servicing asset or liability when an entity enters
into arrangements to service financial instruments in certain situations. Such servicing assets or servicing liabilities are required to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. SFAS No. 156 also allows an entity to subsequently
measure its servicing assets or servicing liabilities using either an amortization method or a fair value method. This Statement is effective for Duke Capital as of January 1, 2007, and must be applied prospectively, except that where an entity
elects to remeasure separately recognized existing arrangements and reclassify certain available-for-sale securities to trading securities, any effects must be reported as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. Duke Capital does not
anticipate the adoption of SFAS No. 156 will have any material impact on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FIN 46 (R)-6, Determining the Variability to Be Considered In Applying FASB Interpretation
No. 46(R).In April 2006, the FASB staff issued FSP No. FIN 46 (R)-6 to address how to determine the variability to be considered in applying FASB Interpretation No. 46(R),Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities. The variability that is considered in applying Interpretation 46(R) affects the determination of whether the entity is a variable interest entity (VIE), which interests are variable interests in the entity, and which party, if
any, is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The variability affects the calculation of expected losses and expected residual returns. This guidance will be applied prospectively to all entities with which Duke Capital first becomes involved or
existing entities for which a reconsideration event occurs after July 1, 2006. Duke Capital does not anticipate the adoption of FSP No. FIN 46 (R)-6 will have any material impact on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or
financial position.

FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement
No. 109 (FIN No. 48). On July 13, 2006, the FASB issued FIN No. 48, which interprets SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.FIN No. 48 provides guidance for the recognition, measurement,
classification and disclosure of the financial statement effects of a position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return (tax position). The financial statement effects of a tax position must be recognized when there is a likelihood
of more than 50 percent that based on the technical merits, the position will be sustained upon examination and resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the recognition threshold must be measured
initially and subsequently as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority. The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2006. Duke Capital is currently evaluating the impact of adopting FIN No. 48, and cannot currently estimate the impact of FIN No. 48 on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

EITF Issue No. 05-1, Accounting for the Conversion of an Instrument that Becomes Convertible Upon the Issuers Exercise of a Call
Option. (EITF 05-1).In June 2006, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue No. 05-1. The consensus requires that the issuance of equity securities to settle a debt instrument (pursuant to the instruments original conversion terms)
that became convertible upon the issuers exercise of a call option be accounted for as a conversion if the debt instrument contained a substantive conversion feature as of its issuance date. If the debt instrument did not contain a substantive
conversion option as of its issuance date, the issuance of equity securities to settle the debt instrument should be accounted for as a debt extinguishment. The consensus is effective for Duke Capital for all conversions within its scope that result
from the exercise of call options beginning July 1, 2006. Duke Capital does not anticipate the adoption of EITF Issue 05-1 will have any material impact on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

EITF Issue No. 06-3, How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (That Is,
Gross versus Net Presentation) (EITF 06-3).In June 2006, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue No. 06-3 to address any tax assessed by a governmental authority that is directly imposed on a revenue-producing transaction between a
seller and a customer and may include, but are not limited to, sales, use, value added, and some excise taxes. For taxes within the issues scope, the consensus requires that entities present such taxes on either a gross (i.e., include in
revenues and costs) or net (i.e., exclude from revenues) basis according to their accounting policies, which should be disclosed. If such taxes are reported gross and are significant, entities should disclose the amounts of those taxes. Disclosures
may be made on an aggregate basis. The consensus is effective for Duke Capital beginning January 1, 2007. Duke Capital does not anticipate the adoption of EITF Issue 06-3 will have any material impact on its consolidated results of operations.



18. Income Tax Expense

Although the outcome of tax audits is uncertain, management believes that adequate provisions for income and other taxes, such as sales and use, franchise, and
property, have been made for potential liabilities resulting from such matters. As of June 30, 2006, Duke Capital has total provisions of approximately $129 million for uncertain tax positions, as compared to approximately $123 million as of
December 31, 2005, including interest. Management is not aware of any issues for open tax years that upon final resolution are expected to have a material adverse effect on Duke Capitals consolidated results of operations, cash flows or
financial position.

The effective tax rate for income from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was approximately 26.5% as
compared to 54.5% for the same period in 2005. The decrease in the effective tax rate for income from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily relates to a reduction in
the unitary state tax rate in 2006 as a result of Duke Energys merger with Cinergy. Additionally, the effective tax rate for income from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was impacted by tax expenses of
approximately $36 million associated with the 2005 repatriation of foreign earnings under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and the flow through of certain tax losses to Duke Energy.

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements(Continued)



The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was approximately 34.8% as compared to 42.0% for the same period in
2005. The decrease in the effective tax rate for income from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily relates to the same items as discussed above for the three month
period ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in the prior year.

As of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, approximately $226 million
and $168 million, respectively, of current deferred tax assets were included in Other within Current Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Additionally, approximately $226 million and $187 million, respectively, of federal income tax
receivables from Duke Energy were included in Other within Current Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. At June 30, 2006, these balances exceeded 5% of total current assets.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition.



INTRODUCTION



Managements Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Duke Energy
Holding Corp. (Duke Energy HC) was incorporated in Delaware on May 3, 2005 as Deer Holding Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Duke Energy Corporation (Old Duke Energy). On April 3, 2006, in accordance with their previously announced
merger agreement, Old Duke Energy and Cinergy Corp. (Cinergy) merged into wholly-owned subsidiaries of Duke Energy HC, resulting in Duke Energy HC becoming the parent entity. In connection with the closing of the merger transactions, Duke Energy HC
changed its name to Duke Energy Corporation (New Duke Energy or Duke Energy) and Old Duke Energy converted into a limited liability company named Duke Power Company LLC (Duke Power). The term Duke Energy, as used in this report, refers to Old Duke
Energy and New Duke Energy, as the context requires.

On April 1, 2006, in connection with the above transactions, Old Duke Energy transferred
the operations of Duke Energy Merchants, LLC and Duke Energy Merchant Finance, LLC (collectively DEM) to its wholly-owned subsidiary, Duke Capital LLC (collectively with its subsidiaries, Duke Capital). As a result of these transfers,
prior period amounts have been retrospectively adjusted to include the results of operations, financial position and cash flows related to DEM as these transactions represent a transfer of assets under common control. Additionally, on April 1,
2006, Duke Capital transferred the operations of its wholly-owned captive insurance subsidiary, Bison Insurance Company Limited (Bison), to Duke Energy. Accordingly, Bisons operations are not included in Duke Capitals results of
operations, financial position or cash flows subsequent to its transfer to Duke Energy. On April 3, 2006, Duke Power transferred to its parent, Duke Energy, all of its membership interests in Duke Capital.

Additionally, in April 2006, Duke Capital indirectly transferred to The Cincinnati Gas & Electric Company (CG&E), a subsidiary of Cinergy, its
ownership interest in Duke Energy North Americas (DENAs) Midwestern assets, representing a mix of combined cycle and peaking plants, with a combined capacity of approximately 3,600 megawatts (MWs). In connection with this transfer, Duke
Capital transferred to CG&E approximately $1.6 billion of assets at their carrying value and approximately $0.1 billion of liabilities at their carrying value, for a net transfer of approximately $1.5 billion. This transfer has been accounted
for as a capital contribution at historical cost. In connection with the transfer, Duke Capital and CG&E entered into an arrangement through April 2016, unless otherwise extended by the parties, whereby Duke Capital will reimburse CG&E in
the event of certain cash shortfalls that may result from CG&Es ownership of the Midwestern assets. The results of operations for DENAs Midwestern assets have been reflected as discontinued operations in the accompanying Consolidated
Statements of Operations.



Executive Overview

In June 2006, the Board of Directors of Duke Energy authorized management to pursue a plan to create two separate publicly traded companies by spinning off Duke
Energys natural gas business to Duke Energy shareholders. The new gas company, which has yet to be named, will consist of Duke Capitals Natural Gas Transmission business segment, which includes Union Gas, and Duke Capitals
50-percent ownership interest in Duke Energy Field Services (DEFS). Approximately $3 billion of debt currently at Duke Capital is anticipated to transfer to the new natural gas company at the time of the spin-off. Duke Energy is targeting a January
1, 2007 effective date for the transaction and expects the transaction to qualify for tax-free treatment for U.S. federal income tax purposes to both Duke Energy and its shareholders. The transaction would require Virginia State Corporation
Commission approval and Duke Energy applied for such approval on August 1, 2006. In addition, approval from the Federal Communications Commission would be required for the indirect change in control over various licenses from Duke Energy to the new
gas company. Duke Energy expects to make the requisite applications in the third quarter 2006. This spin-off will likely have a material impact on Duke Capitals consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, as well as
liquidity and capital resources.

For the three months ended June 30, 2006, Duke Capital reported net income of $320 million as compared to net
income of $129 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, Duke Capital reported net income of $542 as compared to net income of $781 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005.
The decrease in net income was due primarily to the pre-tax gain of approximately $900 million (net of minority interest of approximately $343 million) recorded in 2005 related to DEFS sale of Texas Eastern Products Pipeline Company, LLC
(TEPPCO GP), which is the general partner of TEPPCO Partners, LP

(TEPPCO LP), and Duke Capitals sale of its limited partner interests in TEPPCO LP and the recognition of prior year hedge losses. The highlights for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2006 include:

| |  |  | Natural Gas Transmissions earnings increased over the same periods in the previous year due to higher natural gas processingprimarily from the addition of the Empress assets
acquired in 2005, business expansion, favorable resolution of property tax issues and the impact of a strengthening Canadian currency. These results were partially offset by higher operating costs and lower equity earnings related to interest
expense;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Field Services results decreased in 2006 as compared to the same periods in the prior year, primarily as a result of the gain from the sale of TEPPCO in 2005, the reduction in ownership
percentage by Duke Capital as a result of the DEFS disposition transaction whereby Duke Capital reduced its ownership interest in DEFS from 69.7% to 50% effective July 1, 2005, and decreased volumes, partially offset by strong commodity prices
during 2006, natural gas liquids (NGL) and gas marketing results and lower hedge losses recognized with the discontinuance of certain cash flow hedges in 2005;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | International Energy experienced lower earnings compared to the same periods in the prior year primarily driven by an impairment of the Campeche equity investment in Mexico and related note
receivable reserve, increased power purchases as a result of an unplanned outage in Peru and unfavorable hydrology in Peru and Brazil. These results were partially offset by favorable currency impactsmainly in Brazil;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Crescent had improved results compared to same periods in the prior year, driven primarily by an approximate $81 million gain on the sale of properties at Potomac Yard in Washington, DC, and
an approximate $52 million land sale at Lake Keowee in South Carolina during 2006;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Other losses increased for the three months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in the prior year due primarily to a reduction in a management fee charged to an unconsolidated
affiliate, partially offset by prior year expenses related to liabilities associated with mutual insurance companies. The decrease in losses for the six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in the prior year is driven by lower
net losses resulting from realized and unrealized mark-to-market impacts of certain discontinued cash flow hedges originally entered into to hedge Field Services commodity price risk, as well as prior year expenses related to liabilities
associated with mutual insurance companies, partially offset by a reduction in a management fee charged to an unconsolidated affiliate; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Loss from discontinued operations, primarily related to the exit of the DENA business, increased in 2006 compared to the same periods in the prior year due primarily to the termination or
sale of the final remaining contracts at DENA, as well as the loss on operation of DENAs Midwestern assets, which were transferred to CG&E in April 2006.

Consolidated Operating Revenues

Three Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005.Consolidated operating revenues for the three months ended
June 30, 2006 decreased $2,659 million, compared to the same period in 2005. This change was driven primarily by:

| |  |  | A $2,872 million decrease due to the deconsolidation of DEFS, effective July 1, 2005
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Partially offsetting this decrease in revenues were:

| |  |  | A $215 million increase at Natural Gas Transmission due to new Canadian assets, primarily higher processing revenues on the Empress System (approximately $122 million), favorable Canadian
dollar foreign exchange impacts (approximately $47 million), recovery of higher natural gas commodity costs (approximately $27 million), resulting from higher natural gas prices passed through to customers without a mark-up at Union Gas Limited
(Union Gas), partially offset by lower gas usage due to unseasonably warmer weather (approximately $19 million), and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | A $68 million increase at International Energy due to increased ownership and resulting consolidation of Aguaytia (approximately $28 million), higher energy prices and generation in Latin
America (approximately $25 million) and an increase in Brazil mainly due to favorable exchange rates and higher average prices (approximately $11 million).
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005.Consolidated operating revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006 decreased $4,801 million, compared to the same period in 2005. This
change was driven primarily by:

| |  |  | A $5,530 million decrease due to the deconsolidation of DEFS, effective July 1, 2005
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Partially offsetting this decrease in revenues were:

| |  |  | A $498 million increase at Natural Gas Transmission due to new Canadian assets, primarily higher processing revenues on the Empress System (approximately $267 million), recovery of higher
natural gas commodity costs (approximately $145 million), resulting from higher natural gas prices passed through to customers without a mark-up at Union Gas, and favorable Canadian dollar foreign exchange impacts (approximately $102 million),
partially offset by lower gas usage due to unseasonably warmer weather (approximately $104 million).
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | A $131 million increase at International Energy due to higher energy prices and favorable exchange rates in Latin America (approximately $79 million) and increased ownership and resulting
consolidation of Aguaytia (approximately $48 million), and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | An approximate $130 million increase in Other related to the prior year impact of the realized and unrealized mark-to-market losses of Field Services hedges that had been recorded in
operating revenues prior to the deconsolidation of DEFS.

(approximately $37 million) and increased natural gas prices at Union Gas (approximately $27 million), partially offset by lower gas usage due to unseasonably warmer weather (approximately $15 million), and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | A $106 million increase at International Energy primarily due to a reserve on a note receivable from the Campeche equity investment (approximately $38 million) (see Note 9 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements, Impairments and Other Charges), increased ownership and resulting consolidation of Aguaytia (approximately $31 million), and higher fuel prices and volumes in Latin America due to increased generation (approximately
$17 million).

Partially offsetting this decrease in expenses were:

| |  |  | A $431 million increase at Natural Gas Transmission due to new Canadian assets, primarily the Empress System (approximately $222 million), increased natural gas prices at Union Gas
(approximately $145 million), resulting from high natural gas prices passed through to customers without a mark-up at Union Gas, Canadian dollar foreign exchange impacts (approximately $81 million), partially offset by lower gas purchase costs due
to unseasonably warmer weather (approximately $82 million), and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | A $144 million increase at International Energy primarily due to increased ownership and resulting consolidation of Aguaytia (approximately $44 million), a reserve on a note receivable from

Consolidated Gains on Sales of Investments in Commercial and Multi-Family Real Estate

Three Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005.Consolidated gains on sales of investments in commercial and multi-family real
estate increased $133 million compared to the same period in 2005. This increase was primarily due to an approximate $81 million gain on the sale of two office buildings at Potomac Yard in Washington, D.C. and an approximate $52 million gain on a
land sale at Lake Keowee in northwestern South Carolina.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005.Consolidated
gains on sales of investments in commercial and multi-family real estate increased $117 million compared to the same period in 2005. This increase was primarily due to an approximate $81 million gain on the sale of two office buildings at Potomac
Yard in Washington, D.C. and an approximate $52 million gain on a land sale at Lake Keowee in northwestern South Carolina.



Consolidated (Losses) Gains on Sales of Other Assets and Other, Net

Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005.Consolidated (losses) gains on sales of other assets and other, net for the six months ended June 30, 2006 increased $20 million, compared to the same period
in 2005. The increase was due primarily to an approximate $23 million gain on the settlement of a customers transportation contract at Natural Gas Transmission in 2006, partially offset by an approximate $5 million loss on a contract
termination.



Consolidated Operating Income

Three Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005.Consolidated operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2006
decreased $53 million, compared to the same period in 2005. Decreased operating income was primarily related to impacts of the deconsolidation of DEFS, effective July 1, 2005, which amounted to $235 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2005, partially offset by approximately $133 million increase in gains on sales of investments in commercial and multi-family real estate and increased operating income at Natural Gas Transmission primarily driven by higher processing
income. Other drivers to operating income are discussed above.

PART I



Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005.Consolidated operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 increased
$28 million, compared to the same period in 2005. Increased operating income was primarily related to an approximate $250 million negative impact to operating income during the six months ended June 30, 2005 related to the discontinuance of
certain cash flow hedges entered into to hedge Field Services commodity price risk, $117 million increase in gains on sales of investments in commercial and multi-family real estate and increased operating income at Natural Gas Transmission
primarily driven by higher processing income. Partially offsetting those results were the impacts of the deconsolidation of DEFS, effective July 1, 2005, which amounted to $322 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005. Other drivers
to operating income are discussed above.

For more detailed discussions, see the segment discussions that follow.



Consolidated Other Income and Expenses, net

Three Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005. Consolidated other income and expenses, net for the three months ended June 30,
2006 increased $79 million, compared to the same period in 2005. The increase was due primarily to an increase of approximately $150 million in equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates primarily due to the deconsolidation of DEFS starting
July 1, 2005, partially offset by a $23 million decrease in a management fee charged by an unconsolidated affiliate, a $21 million loss resulting from realized and unrealized mark-to-market impacts in 2006 of certain discontinued cash flow
hedges originally entered into to hedge Field Services commodity price risk and approximately $20 million of impairment charges on equity method investments recorded in the second quarter 2006, primarily International Energys investment
in Campeche (see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, Impairments and Other Charges).

Six Months Ended June 30, 2006
as Compared to June 30, 2005.Consolidated other income and expenses, net for the six months ended June 30, 2006 decreased $1,071 million, compared to the same period in 2005. The decrease was due primarily to the $1,245 million
pre-tax gains on sales of equity investments recorded in 2005, primarily associated with the sale of TEPPCO GP and Duke Capitals limited partner interest in TEPPCO LP, as discussed above, a $45 million loss resulting from realized and
unrealized mark-to-market impacts in 2006 of certain discontinued cash flow hedges originally entered into to hedge Field Services commodity price risk and a $45 million decrease in a management fee charged by an unconsolidated affiliate,
partially offset by an increase of approximately $284 million in equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates primarily due to the deconsolidation of DEFS starting July 1, 2005.



Consolidated Interest Expense

Three
Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005.Consolidated interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2006 decreased $38 million, compared to the same period in 2005. This decrease is primarily attributable to
the deconsolidation of DEFS.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005.Consolidated interest expense for the six
months ended June 30, 2006 decreased $83 million, compared to the same period in 2005. This decrease is primarily attributable to the deconsolidation of DEFS. Interest expense in 2005 reflected amounts related to debt associated with DEFS prior
to the deconsolidation on July 1, 2005.



Consolidated Minority Interest Expense

Three Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005. Consolidated minority interest expense for the three months ended
June 30, 2006 decreased $63 million, compared to the same period in 2005. The decrease primarily resulted from the impact of deconsolidation of DEFS, as discussed above.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005.Consolidated minority interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2006
decreased $468 million, compared to the same period in 2005. The decrease primarily resulted from the 2005 gain associated with the sale of TEPPCO GP and the impact of deconsolidation of DEFS, as discussed above.



Consolidated Income Tax Expense from Continuing Operations

Three Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005.Consolidated income tax expense from continuing operations for the three months
ended June 30, 2006 decreased $71 million, compared to the same period in 2005. The effective tax rate decreased in the three months ended June 30, 2006 (26.5%) compared to the same period in 2005 (54.5%), primarily due to a reduction
in the unitary state tax rate in 2006 as a result of Duke Energys merger with Cinergy. Additionally, the effective tax rate for income from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was impacted by tax expenses of
approximately $36 million associated with the 2005 repatriation of foreign earnings under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and the flow through of certain tax losses to Duke Energy.

PART I



Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005.Consolidated income tax expense from continuing operations for the six months ended
June 30, 2006 decreased $279 million, compared to the same period in 2005. This decrease primarily resulted from lower pre-tax earnings, due primarily to the 2005 gains associated with the sale of TEPPCO GP and Duke Capitals limited
partner interest in TEPPCO LP as discussed above. The effective tax rate decreased in the six months ended June 30, 2006 (34.8%) compared to the same period in 2005 (42.0%), primarily due to the same items discussed above for the three
months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in the prior year.



Consolidated Loss from Discontinued Operations, net of tax

Three Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30,
2005.Consolidated loss from discontinued operations, net of tax for the three months ended June 30, 2006 increased $7 million, compared to the same period in 2005. This increase primarily resulted from an approximate $24 million increase
in after-tax loss at DENA associated with certain contract terminations or sales, partially offset by an approximate $12 million decrease due to the transfer of DENAs Midwestern assets to CG&E in April 2006 and a $5 million increase in
after-tax gain at International Energy due primarily to a write-up of a receivable from Norsk Hydro (see Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale).

Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005.Consolidated loss from discontinued operations, net of tax for the six months ended
June 30, 2006 increased $26 million, compared to the same period in 2005. This increase primarily resulted from an approximate $22 million increase in after-tax loss at DENA associated with certain contract terminations or sales and an
approximate $13 million increase in after-tax loss at International Energy primarily as a result of the recording of an allowance against a receivable, offset by the $5 million after-tax write-up as mentioned above and an approximate $4 million
decrease due to the transfer of DENAs Midwestern assets to CG&E in April 2006.



Segment Results

Management evaluates segment performance based on earnings before interest and taxes from continuing operations,
after deducting minority interest expense related to those profits (EBIT). On a segment basis, EBIT excludes discontinued operations, represents all profits from continuing operations (both operating and non-operating) before deducting interest and
taxes, and is net of the minority interest expense related to those profits. Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are managed centrally by Duke Capital, so the gains and losses on foreign currency remeasurement, and interest and
dividend income on those balances, are excluded from the segments EBIT. Management considers segment EBIT to be a good indicator of each segments operating performance from its continuing operations, as it represents the results of Duke
Capitals ownership interest in operations without regard to financing methods or capital structures.

Duke Capitals segment EBIT may not
be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company because other entities may not calculate EBIT in the same manner. Segment EBIT is summarized in the following table, and detailed discussions follow.

See Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, Business Segments, for a discussion of Duke Capitals new segment structure. Additionally,
segment assets for DENA Midwestern operations are included in the Commercial Power segment, whereby previously DENAs Midwestern assets were included in Other.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005

Operating Revenues.The increase was driven primarily by:

| |  |  | A $122 million increase due to new Canadian assets, primarily higher processing revenues on the Empress System as a result of commodity prices.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | A $47 million increase due to foreign exchange rates favorably impacting revenues from the Canadian operations as a result of the strengthening Canadian dollar (partially offset by currency
impacts to expenses).
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | A $27 million increase from recovery of higher natural gas commodity costs, resulting from higher natural gas prices passed through to customers without a mark-up at Union. This revenue
increase is offset in expenses, and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | A $9 million increase from completed and operational pipeline expansion projects in the United States, partially offset by

offset by
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | A $15 million decrease related to the resolution of prior tax years ad valorem tax, and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | A $15 million decrease in gas purchase costs, primarily resulting from lower gas usage due to unseasonably warmer weather.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PART I



In July 2005, Duke Energy caused a Duke Capital subsidiary to complete the transfer of a 19.7% interest in DEFS to ConocoPhillips, Duke Capitals co-equity
owner in DEFS, which reduced Duke Capitals ownership interest in DEFS from 69.7% to 50% (the DEFS disposition transaction) and resulted in Duke Capital and ConocoPhillips becoming equal 50% owners in DEFS. As a result of the DEFS disposition
transaction, Duke Capital deconsolidated its investment in DEFS and subsequently has accounted for DEFS as an investment utilizing the equity method of accounting.



Three months ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005

Operating Revenues.The decrease was due to the DEFS disposition transaction and subsequent deconsolidation of DEFS.

Operating Expenses. The decrease was due to the DEFS disposition transaction and subsequent deconsolidation of DEFS.

Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Affiliates.The increase is due to Duke Capitals 50% of equity in earnings of DEFS net income for the three
months ended June 30, 2006. DEFS earnings during the three months ended June 30, 2006 have continued to be favorably impacted by increased commodity prices as compared to the prior period.

Other Income and expenses, net. The decrease is due to the DEFS disposition transaction and subsequent deconsolidation of DEFS.

Minority Interest Expense.The decrease was due to the DEFS disposition transaction and subsequent deconsolidation of DEFS.

EBIT. The decrease in EBIT resulted from the DEFS disposition transaction, which reduced Duke Capitals ownership interest in DEFS from 69.7% to 50%.
These decreases were partially offset by increased commodity prices for the three months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the prior period.



Six months ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005

Operating Revenues.The decrease was due to the DEFS disposition transaction and subsequent deconsolidation of DEFS.

Operating Expenses. The decrease was due to the DEFS disposition transaction and subsequent deconsolidation of DEFS. Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were impacted by approximately $120 million of losses
recognized due to the reclassification of pre-tax unrealized losses in AOCI as a result of the discontinuance of certain cash flow hedges entered into to hedge Field Services commodity price risk, which were previously accounted for as cash
flow hedges.

Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Affiliates.The increase is due to Duke Capitals 50% of equity in earnings of
DEFS net income for the six months ended June 30, 2006. DEFS earnings during the six months ended June 30, 2006 have continued to be favorably impacted by increased commodity prices as compared to the prior period as well as a
gain on sale of assets to an unrelated third party (of which Duke Capitals 50% share was approximately $14 million). These increases have been partially offset by higher operating costs and pipeline integrity work for the six months ended
June 30, 2006.

Other Income and expenses, net. The decrease is due to the DEFS disposition transaction and subsequent deconsolidation of
DEFS. During the six months ended June 30, 2005, DEFS had a pre-tax gain on the sale of its wholly-owned subsidiary, TEPPCO GP, the general partner of TEPPCO LP of $1.1 billion, and Duke Capital had a pre-tax gain on the sale of its limited
partner interest in TEPPCO LP of approximately $97 million. TEPPCO GP and Duke Capitals limited partner interest in TEPPCO LP were each sold to Enterprise GP Holdings LP, an unrelated third party.

Minority Interest Expense.The decrease was due to the DEFS disposition transaction and subsequent deconsolidation of DEFS. Minority interest expense for the
six months ended June 30, 2005 was due primarily to the gain on the sale of TEPPCO GP to Enterprise GP Holdings LP for approximately $1.1 billion, as discussed above.

EBIT. The decrease in EBIT resulted primarily from the gain on sale of TEPPCO GP and Duke Capitals limited partner interest in TEPPCO LP during the six months ended June 30, 2005 and the DEFS disposition
transaction, which reduced Duke Capitals ownership interest in DEFS from 69.7% to 50%. These decreases were partially offset by increased commodity prices for the six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the prior period.

Matters Impacting Future
Results

In July 2006, the State of New Mexico Environment Department issued Compliance Orders to DEFS that list air quality violations during
the past five years at three DEFS owned or operated facilities in New Mexico. DEFS intends to contest these allegations. Management of DEFS is unable to express an opinion regarding the probable outcome of this matter at this time.

Three Months Ended June 30,
2006 as Compared to June 30, 2005

Operating Revenues. The decrease was driven primarily by the continued wind-downs of Duke Capitals
50% interest in Duke/Fluor Daniel (D/FD), Duke Energy Trading and Marketing (DETM) and Duke Energy Merchants, LLC (DEM). The decrease was also driven by lower captive insurance revenues due to the transfer of ownership in Bison to Duke Energy
effective April 1, 2006. Partially offsetting the decreases was an approximate $20 million increase in revenue as a result of the prior year impact of realized and unrealized mark-to-market losses on certain discontinued cash flow hedges originally
entered into to hedge Field Services commodity price risk which were accounted for as Operating Revenues prior to the deconsolidation of DEFS, effective July 1, 2005.

Operating Expenses. The decrease was related to the continued wind-downs of D/FD, DETM and DEM, a reduction in expenses related to captive insurance due to
the change of ownership in Bison to Duke Energy effective April 1, 2006, and a $24 million reduction in charges for liabilities associated with mutual insurance companies. The decrease was partially offset by $9 million of net charges in 2006
associated with Duke Capitals proportionate share of Duke Energys costs to achieve the Cinergy merger.

Other Income and Expenses,
net. The decrease was driven primarily by a $21 million net loss resulting from realized and unrealized mark-to-market impacts in 2006 of certain discontinued cash flow hedges originally entered into to hedge Field Services commodity price
risk which are recorded in Other income and expenses, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations subsequent to the deconsolidation of DEFS, effective July 1, 2005. Also contributing to the decrease was a $23 million reduction in a management
fee charged to an unconsolidated affiliate.

EBIT.The decrease was driven by a reduction in a management fee charged to an unconsolidated
affiliate and net charges in 2006 associated with Duke Capitals proportionate share of Duke Energys cost to achieve the Cinergy merger, partially offset by prior year expenses related to liabilities associated with mutual insurance
companies.



Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 as Compared to June 30,
2005

Operating Revenues. The increase was driven primarily by an approximate $130 million increase as a result of the prior year impact of
realized and unrealized mark-to-market losses on certain discontinued cash flow hedges originally entered into to hedge Field Services commodity price risk which were accounted for as Operating Revenues prior to the deconsolidation of DEFS,
effective July 1, 2005. This increase was partially offset by decreases associated with the continued wind-downs of D/FD, DETM and DEM and by lower captive insurance revenues due to the transfer of ownership in Bison to Duke Energy effective April
1, 2006.

Operating Expenses. The decrease was related to the continued wind-downs of D/FD, DETM and DEM, a reduction in expenses related to
captive insurance due to the transfer of ownership in Bison to Duke Energy effective April 1, 2006, and a $18 million reduction in charges for liabilities associated with mutual insurance companies. These decreases were partially offset by $11
million of net charges in 2006 associated with Duke Capitals proportionate share of Duke Energys costs to achieve the Cinergy merger.

PART I



Other Income and Expenses, net. The decrease was driven primarily by a $45 million net loss resulting from realized and unrealized mark-to-market impacts in
2006 of certain discontinued cash flow hedges originally entered into to hedge Field Services commodity price risk which are recorded in Other income and expenses, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations subsequent to the
deconsolidation of DEFS, effective July 1, 2005. Also contributing to the decrease was a $45 million reduction in a management fee charged to an unconsolidated affiliate.

EBIT.The increase was driven by lower net losses resulting from realized and unrealized mark-to-market impacts of certain discontinued cash flow hedges originally entered into to hedge Field Services commodity
price risk. Also contributing to the increase were prior year expenses related to liabilities associated with mutual insurance companies. Partially offsetting the increases was a reduction in a management fee charged to an unconsolidated affiliate
and net charges in 2006 associated with Duke Capitals proportionate share of Duke Energys cost to achieve the Cinergy merger.



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Operating Cash Flows

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $657 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005. This change was
driven primarily by:

| |  |  | An approximate $400 million decrease in 2006 due to the net settlement of remaining DENA contracts
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | The impacts of the deconsolidation of DEFS, LLC, effective July 1, 2005
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | The settlement of the payable to Barclays (approximately $600 million) in 2006, partially offset by
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Collateral received by Duke Capital (approximately $540 million) in 2006 from Barclays
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Investing Cash Flows

Net cash provided by investing activities
increased $578 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005. This change was driven primarily by:

| |  |  | Approximately $1.6 billion in proceeds received from the sale of DENA in 2006
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Approximately $370 million in net purchases (net of sales and maturities) of marketable securities at DEFS in 2005, which was deconsolidated effective July 1, 2005, partially offset by
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Approximately $1.2 billion in proceeds received from the sale of TEPPCO GP and Duke Capitals interest in TEPPCO LP in 2005
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | An approximate $100 million increase in capital and investment expenditures in 2006, primarily related to additional investments at Crescent
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Financing Cash Flows and Liquidity

Net cash used in financing activities increased $327 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, compared to the same period in 2005. This change was
driven primarily by:

| |  |  | In April 2005, Duke Capital received a $269 million capital contribution from Duke Energy, which Duke Capital classified as an addition to Members Equity
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | An approximate $280 million increase in redemptions of long-term debt, net of issuances
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | An approximate $150 million increase in net advances to parent, partially offset by
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | An approximate $350 million decrease in other net distributions to Duke Energy
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Significant Financing Activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, Duke Capitals consolidated credit capacity decreased by approximately $1,236 million, primarily due to the terminations of an $800 million
syndicated credit facility and $460 million in bi-lateral credit facilities. The terminations of these credit facilities primarily reflect Duke Capitals reduced liquidity needs as a result of exiting the DENA business.

In December 2004, Duke Capital reached an agreement to sell its partially completed Grays Harbor power generation facility to an affiliate of Invenergy LLC. In
2004, Duke Capital terminated its capital lease with the dedicated pipeline which would have transported natural gas to Grays Harbor. As a result of this termination, approximately $94 million was paid by Duke Capital in January 2005.

PART I



On March 1, 2005, redemption notices were sent to the bondholders of the $100 million PanEnergy 8.625% bonds due in 2025. These bonds were redeemed on
April 15, 2005 at a redemption price of 104.03 or approximately $104 million.

In April 2006, in connection with Duke Energys merger with
Cinergy, Duke Capital transferred its ownership in DENAs Midwestern assets to CG&E and transferred the operations of Bison to Duke Energy. The transfers, which amounted to approximately $1,452 million and $60 million, respectively, are
reflected as non-cash transactions on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Available Credit Facilities and Restrictive Debt Covenants.Duke Capitals debt and credit agreements contain various financial and other covenants. Failure to meet those covenants beyond applicable grace periods could result in accelerated due dates and/or termination of the agreements. As of
June 30, 2006, Duke Capital was in compliance with those covenants. In addition, some credit agreements may allow for acceleration of payments or termination of the agreements due to nonpayment, or to the acceleration of other significant
indebtedness of the borrower or some of its subsidiaries. None of the debt or credit agreements contain material adverse change clauses.

Credit
Ratings. Duke Capital and certain subsidiaries each hold credit ratings by Standard & Poors (S&P), Moodys Investors Service (Moodys) and Dominion Bond Rating Service (DBRS).

The most recent rating action by S&P occurred in June 2006 when S&P changed the outlook of Duke Capital, Texas Eastern Transmission, LP, Union Gas and
Westcoast Energy Inc. from positive to developing following Duke Energys announcement of the separation of the electric and gas businesses. S&P noted the developing outlook reflects a measure of uncertainty as to how the new gas company
will be capitalized and funded. In May 2006, S&P changed the outlook of Duke Capital and all of its subsidiaries (with the exception of Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline, LLC and Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline, LP (collectively
M&N Pipeline) and Duke Energy Trading and Marketing, LLC) from stable to positive reflecting Duke Energys announcement to sell Cinergys commercial trading and marketing operations. In April 2006, following the completion of Duke
Energys merger with Cinergy, S&P raised the credit rating of Duke Capital one rating level as disclosed in the table below. At the completion of S&Ps April actions, all the credit ratings were on stable outlook. S&P last
affirmed its rating for M&N Pipeline in July 2006 where it has remained unchanged with a stable outlook for the last several years.

The most
recent rating action by Moodys for Duke Capital and its subsidiaries (with the exception of M&N Pipeline) occurred in April 2006 following Duke Energys completion of the merger with Cinergy. Moodys upgraded the credit ratings
of Duke Capital and Texas Eastern Transmission, LP one rating level as disclosed in the table below. Moodys concluded their ratings action placing Duke Capital and Texas Eastern Transmission, LP on stable outlook. Moodys noted in
their actions the substantial reduction in business and operating risk of Duke Capital through the restructuring of its ownership in DEFS and the divestiture of the Duke Energy North America merchant generation assets and trading book. Moodys
also noted the upgrade at Texas Eastern, LP as connected to its parent Duke Capital. In August 2005, Moodys concluded a review of M&N Pipeline and downgraded the credit ratings one ratings level to the respective ratings disclosed in the
table below concluding their actions with a stable outlook. Moodys actions were primarily as a result of their concerns over the downward revisions in the reserve estimates for the Sable Offshore Energy Project (SOEI) and reduced production by
SOEI producers. In August 2006, Moodys revised the outlook for Maritimes & Northeast Pipelines, LLC to negative, noting the potential for a somewhat weaker shipper profile resulting from a recently announced expansion project on the
U.S. portion of the pipeline.

The most recent rating action by DBRS occurred in June 2006 when DBRS confirmed the stable trend of the entities
disclosed in the table below following Duke Energys announcement of the separation of the electric and gas businesses. Each of the credit ratings assigned by DBRS to the entities below has remained unchanged for the last several years with a
stable trend.

The following table summarizes the August 1, 2006 credit ratings from the agencies retained by Duke Capital to rate its
securities, its principal funding subsidiaries and its trading and marketing subsidiary DETM.

PART I



These entities credit ratings are dependent upon, among other factors, the ability to generate sufficient cash to fund capital and investment expenditures, while
maintaining the strength of their current balance sheets. In addition, the M&N Pipeline ratings are dependent upon, among other factors, the future gas supply availability and potential changes in customer credit profiles. These credit ratings
could be negatively impacted if as a result of market conditions or other factors, these entities are unable to maintain their current balance sheet strength, or if earnings and cash flow outlook materially deteriorates, or if the gas supply
availability contracted on the M&N pipeline materially deteriorates, or the M&N customer credit profiles materially deteriorates.

Prior to
June 30, 2006, business activity by DENA generated the majority of Duke Capitals collateral requirements. During the third quarter of 2005, the Board of Directors of Duke Energy authorized and directed management to execute the sale or
disposition of substantially all of DENAs remaining assets and contracts outside the Midwestern United States. On November 18, 2005, Duke Capital announced it signed an agreement to transfer substantially all of the DENA portfolio of
derivatives contracts to Barclays. Under the agreement, Barclays acquired substantially all of DENAs outstanding gas and power derivatives contracts which essentially eliminated Duke Capitals credit, collateral, market and legal risk
associated with DENAs derivative trading positions effective on the date of signing. Substantially all of the underlying contracts have been transferred to Barclays.

A reduction in the credit rating of Duke Capital to below investment grade as of June 30, 2006 would have resulted in Duke Capital posting additional collateral of up to approximately $320 million. The majority of this
collateral is related to outstanding surety bonds.

Duke Capital would fund any additional collateral requirements through a combination of cash on
hand and the use of credit facilities. Additionally, if credit ratings for Duke Capital or its affiliates fall below investment grade there is likely to be a negative impact on its working capital and terms of trade that is not possible to fully
quantify, in addition to the posting of additional collateral and segregation of cash described above.

Other Financing Matters.As of
June 30, 2006, Duke Capital and its subsidiaries had effective SEC shelf registrations for up to $592 million in gross proceeds from debt and other securities. Additionally, as of June 30, 2006, Duke Capital had 700 million Canadian
dollars (approximately U.S. $618 million) available under Canadian shelf registrations for issuances in the Canadian market. Of the 700 million Canadian dollars available under Canadian shelf registrations, 200 million expired in July 2006
and 500 million expires in May 2008. In July 2006, an additional 600 million Canadian dollars (approximately U.S. $529) was added to the amount available under Canadian shelf registrations that expires in August 2008.



Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the six months ended June 30, 2006, there were no material changes to Duke Capitals off-balance sheet arrangements. For information on Duke
Capitals off-balance sheet arrangements, see Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements in Duke Capitals Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2005.



Contractual Obligations

Duke Capital enters
into contracts that require cash payment at specified periods, based on specified minimum quantities and prices. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, there were no material changes in Duke Capitals contractual obligations. For an
in-depth discussion of Duke Capitals contractual obligations, see Contractual Obligations and Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Results of
Operations and Financial Condition in Duke Capitals Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.



OTHER ISSUES

Plan to Separate Duke Energys Natural Gas and
Electric Power Businesses.In June 2006, the Board of Directors of Duke Energy authorized management to pursue a plan to create two separate publicly traded companies by spinning off Duke Energys natural gas business to Duke Energy
shareholders. The new gas company, which has yet to be named, will consist of Duke Capitals Natural Gas Transmission business segment, which includes Union Gas, and Duke Capitals 50-percent ownership interest in Duke Energy Field
Services (DEFS). Approximately $3 billion of debt currently at Duke Capital is anticipated to transfer to the new natural gas company at the time of the spin-off. Duke Energy is targeting a January 1, 2007 effective date for the transaction and
expects the transaction to qualify for tax-free treatment for U.S. federal income tax purposes to both Duke Energy and its shareholders. The transaction would require Virginia State Corporation Commission approval and Duke Energy applied for such
approval on August 1, 2006. In addition, approval from the Federal Communications Commission would be required for the indirect change in control over various licenses from Duke Energy to the new gas company. Duke Energy expects to make the
requisite applications in the third quarter 2006. This spin-off will likely have a material impact on Duke Capitals consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position, as well as liquidity and capital resources.

New Accounting Standards

The following new accounting standards have been issued, but have not yet been adopted by Duke Capital as of June 30, 2006:

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instrumentsan amendment of FASB Statements
No. 133 and 140 (SFAS No. 155).In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 155, which amends SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activitiesand SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. SFAS No. 155 allows financial instruments that have embedded derivatives to be
accounted for at fair value at acquisition, at issuance, or when a previously recognized financial instrument is subject to a remeasurement (new basis) event, on an instrument-by-instrument basis, in cases in which a derivative would otherwise have
to be bifurcated. This Statement is effective for Duke Capital for all financial instruments acquired, issued, or subject to remeasurement after January 1, 2007, and for certain hybrid financial instruments that have been bifurcated prior to
the effective date, for which the effect is to be reported as a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings. Duke Capital does not anticipate the adoption of SFAS No. 155 will have any material impact on its consolidated results
of operations, cash flows or financial position.

SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assetsan amendment of FASB
Statement No. 140 (SFAS No. 156). In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, which amends SFAS No.140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of
Liabilities. SFAS No 156 requires recognition of a servicing asset or liability when an entity enters into arrangements to service financial instruments in certain situations. Such servicing assets or servicing liabilities are required to
be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. SFAS No. 156 also allows an entity to subsequently measure its servicing assets or servicing liabilities using either an amortization method or a fair value method. This Statement is
effective for Duke Capital as of January 1, 2007, and must be applied prospectively, except that where an entity elects to remeasure separately recognized existing arrangements and reclassify certain available-for-sale securities to trading
securities, any effects must be reported as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. Duke Capital does not anticipate the adoption of SFAS No. 156 will have any material impact on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows
or financial position.

FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement
No. 109 (FIN No. 48). On July 13, 2006, the FASB issued FIN No. 48, which interprets SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.FIN No. 48 provides guidance for the recognition, measurement,
classification and disclosure of the financial statement effects of a position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return (tax position). The financial statement effects of a tax position must be recognized when there is a likelihood
of more than 50 percent that based on the technical merits, the position will be sustained upon examination and resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the recognition threshold must be measured
initially and subsequently as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority. The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2006. Duke Capital is currently evaluating the impact of adopting FIN No. 48, and cannot currently estimate the impact of FIN No. 48 on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FIN 46 (R)-6, Determining the Variability to Be Considered In Applying Interpretation No. 46(R) (FSP-FIN
46(R)-6).In April 2006, the FASB staff issued FSP No. FIN 46 (R)-6 to address how to determine the variability to be considered in applying FASB Interpretation No. 46(R),Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. The
variability that is considered in applying Interpretation 46(R) affects the determination of whether the entity is a variable interest entity (VIE), which interests are variable interests in the entity, and which party, if any, is the primary
beneficiary of the VIE. The variability affects the calculation of expected losses and expected residual returns. This guidance will be applied prospectively to all entities with which Duke Capital first becomes involved or existing entities for
which a reconsideration event occurs after July 1, 2006. Duke Capital does not anticipate the adoption of FSP No. FIN 46 (R)-6 will have any material impact on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

EITF Issue No. 05-1, Accounting for the Conversion of an Instrument that Becomes Convertible Upon the Issuers Exercise of a Call
Option (EITF 05-1).In June 2006, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue No. 05-1. The consensus requires that the issuance of equity securities to settle a debt instrument (pursuant to the instruments original conversion terms)
that became convertible upon the issuers exercise of a call option be accounted for as a conversion if the debt instrument contained a substantive conversion feature as of its issuance date. If the debt instrument did not contain a substantive
conversion option as of its issuance date, the issuance of equity securities to settle the debt instrument should be accounted for as a debt extinguishment. The consensus is effective for Duke Capital for all

conversions within its scope that result from the exercise of call options beginning July 1, 2006. Duke Capital does not anticipate the adoption of EITF Issue
05-1 will have any material impact on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

EITF Issue No. 06-3,
How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (That Is, Gross versus Net Presentation) (EITF 06-3).In June 2006, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue
No. 06-3 to address any tax assessed by a governmental authority that is directly imposed on a revenue-producing transaction between a seller and a customer and may include, but are not limited to, sales, use, value added, and some excise
taxes. For taxes within the issues scope, the consensus requires that entities present such taxes on either a gross (i.e., include in revenues and costs) or net (i.e., exclude from revenues) basis according to their accounting policies, which
should be disclosed. If such taxes are reported gross and are significant, entities should disclose the amounts of those taxes. Disclosures may be made on an aggregate basis. The consensus is effective for Duke Capital beginning January 1,
2007. Duke Capital does not anticipate the adoption of EITF Issue 06-3 will have any material impact on its consolidated results of operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

For an in-depth discussion of Duke Capitals
market risks, see Managements Discussion and Analysis of Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk in Duke Capitals Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.



Commodity Price Risk

Duke Capital is exposed to the impact of market fluctuations in the prices of natural gas, NGLs and other energy-related products marketed and purchased as a result
of its ownership of energy related assets, remaining proprietary trading contracts, and interests in structured contracts classified as undesignated. Price risk represents the potential risk of loss from adverse changes in the market price of energy
commodities. Duke Capital employs established policies and procedures to manage its risks associated with these market fluctuations using various commodity derivatives.

Duke Capitals largest commodity exposure is due to market price fluctuations of NGLs primarily in the Field Services segment and, to a lesser extent, in the
Natural Gas Transmission segment. Based on a sensitivity analysis as of June 30, 2006, it was estimated that price changes of eighteen cents per gallon and fifteen cents per gallon in the price of NGLs (net of related hedges and an equivalent
price change in crude oil) would have a corresponding effect on pre-tax income from continuing operations of approximately $167 million and $143 million, respectively over the next 12 months. Comparatively, a fifteen cent price change sensitivity
analysis as of December 31, 2005 would have impacted pre-tax income from continuing operations by approximately $105 million over the next 12 months. The increase is due primarily to the NGL production after December 31, 2006 being
included in the June 30, 2006 sensitivity which is currently not hedged.

Normal Purchases and Normal Sales. During 2005, the Board of
Directors of Duke Energy authorized and directed management to execute the sale or disposition of substantially all of DENAs remaining physical and commercial assets outside the Midwestern United States and certain contractual positions
related to the Midwestern assets. As a result, Duke Capital recognized a pre-tax loss of approximately $1.9 billion in 2005 for the disqualification of its power and gas forward sales contracts previously designated under the normal purchases normal
sales exception. This loss is partially offset by the recognition of a pre-tax gain of approximately $1.2 billion for the discontinuance of hedge accounting for natural gas and power cash flow hedges. In April 2006, Duke Capital transferred to
CG&E the Midwestern generation assets of DENA, representing approximately 3,600 megawatts of power generation (see Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, Basis of Presentation , for further details on Duke Energys
merger with Cinergy ).

Trading and Undesignated Portfolio Risk. Subsequent to Duke Energys merger with Cinergy, Duke Capital adopted a
VaR methodology to measure and disclose market risk inherent in its trading portfolio, in line with how Duke Energy currently manages the portfolio. VaR is a statistical measure used to quantify the potential change in the economic value of the
trading portfolio over a particular period of time, with a specified likelihood of occurrence, due to market movement.

VaR is reported based on a 95
percent confidence interval, utilizing a one-day holding period. This means that on a given day (one-day holding period) there is a 95 percent chance (confidence level) that the trading portfolio will not lose more than the stated



52

PART I



amount. VaR is measured using a Monte Carlo simulation methodology that considers implied forward-looking volatilities and historical 21 day correlations. Duke
Capitals VaR amounts for commodity derivatives recorded using the mark-to-market model of accounting were immaterial at June 30, 2006.

Duke Capital historically used daily earnings at risk (DER) to measure and monitor the mark-to-market portfolios impact on earnings. DER computations are based on historical simulation, which uses price movements over an eleven day
period. The historical simulation emphasizes the most recent market activity, which is considered the most relevant predictor of immediate future market movements for natural gas, electricity and other energy-related products. DER computations use
several key assumptions, including a 95% confidence level for the resultant price movement and the holding period specified for the calculation.

Duke
Capital disclosed a DER of $12 million as of December 31, 2005. This was primarily comprised of DENA derivative positions. DENAs DER at June 30, 2006 was zero due to the DENA wind-down. The DER figures do not include the hedges which
were de-designated as a result of the transfer of 19.7% of Duke Capitals interest in DEFS to ConocoPhillips. The calculated consolidated DER at December 31, 2005 consists of approximately $11 million related to discontinued operations and
less than $1 million related to continuing operations.

DETM, the 60%/40% unregulated joint venture with Exxon Mobil, continues to prudently manage
down its legacy natural gas positions. While the venture was originally created to actively trade and market natural gas following de-regulation, the venture is a very different business today. No active trading is occurring now other than
transacting to meet contractual obligations and to optimize remaining legacy gas positions. These legacy positions do not generate any material earnings volatility for Duke Capital.



Credit Risk

Credit risk represents the loss
that Duke Capital would incur if a counterparty fails to perform under its contractual obligations. To reduce credit exposure, Duke Capital seeks to enter into payment netting agreements with counterparties that permit Duke Capital to offset
receivables and payables with such counterparties. Duke Capital attempts to further reduce credit risk with certain counterparties by entering into agreements that enable Duke Capital to obtain collateral or to terminate or reset the terms of
transactions after specified time periods or upon the occurrence of credit-related events. Duke Capital may, at times, use credit derivatives or other structures and techniques to provide for third-party credit enhancement of Duke Capitals
counterparties obligations.

Duke Capitals principal customers for power and natural gas marketing and transportation services are
industrial end-users, marketers, local distribution companies and utilities located throughout the U.S., Canada and Latin America. Duke Capital has concentrations of receivables from natural gas and electric utilities and their affiliates, as well
as industrial customers and marketers throughout these regions. These concentrations of customers may affect Duke Capitals overall credit risk in that risk factors can negatively impact the credit quality of the entire sector. Where exposed to
credit risk, Duke Capital analyzes the counterparties financial condition prior to entering into an agreement, establishes credit limits and monitors the appropriateness of those limits on an ongoing basis.

In 1999, the Industrial Development Corp of the City of Edinburg, Texas (IDC) issued approximately $100 million in bonds to purchase equipment for lease to Duke
Hidalgo (Hidalgo), a subsidiary of Duke Capital. Duke Capital unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed the lease payments of Hidalgo to IDC through 2028. In 2000, Hidalgo was sold to Calpine Corporation and Duke Capital remained obligated under
the lease guaranty. In January 2006, Hidalgo and its subsidiaries filed for bankruptcy protection in connection with the previous bankruptcy filing by its parent, Calpine Corporation in December 2005. Gross, undiscounted exposure under the guarantee
obligation as of June 30, 2006 is approximately $200 million, which includes principal and interest. Duke Capital does not believe a loss under the guarantee obligation is probable as of June 30, 2006, but continues to evaluate the
situation. Therefore, no reserves have been recorded for any contingent loss as of June 30, 2006. No demands for payment of principal or interest have been made under the guarantee. If future losses are incurred under the guarantee, Duke
Capital has certain rights which should allow it to mitigate such loss.



Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Duke Capital in the
reports it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commissions (SEC) rules and forms.
Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by Duke Capital in the reports it files under the Exchange Act is accumulated
and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.



53



---

PART I



Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, Duke Capital has evaluated the
effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2006, and, based upon this evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial
officer have concluded that these controls and procedures are effective in providing reasonable assurance that information requiring disclosure is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the timeframe specified by the SECs rules
and forms.



Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, Duke Capital has evaluated
changes in internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2006 and, other than the Duke Energy and Cinergy
merger discussed below, found no change that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.

On April 3, 2006, the previously announced merger between Duke Energy and Cinergy was consummated. Duke Energy is currently in the process of integrating Cinergys operations and will be conducting control reviews pursuant to
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information relating to the merger.
