TECO ENERGY, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

UNAUDITED

1. Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies

The significant accounting policies for both utility and diversified operations include:

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of TECO Energy, Inc., its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries, and the accounts of variable interest entities for which it is the primary beneficiary (TECO Energy
or the company). All significant intercompany balances and intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Generally, the equity method of accounting is used to account for investments in partnerships or other arrangements in which
TECO Energy is not the primary beneficiary but we are able to exert significant influence. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements include all adjustments that are of a recurring nature and necessary
to state fairly the financial position of TECO Energy, Inc. and subsidiaries as of Mar. 31, 2008 and Dec. 31, 2007, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended Mar. 31, 2008 and 2007. The results of operations for the three
month period ended Mar. 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the entire fiscal year ending Dec. 31, 2008.

The use of estimates is inherent in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Actual results could differ from these estimates. The year end condensed
balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, however this quarterly report on Form 10-Q does not include all year end disclosures required for an annual report on Form 10-K by GAAP in the United States of America.

Revenues

As of Mar. 31, 2008 and Dec. 31, 2007,
unbilled revenues of $46.5 million and $46.6 million, respectively, are included in the Receivables line item on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.

Cash Flows Related to Derivatives and Hedging Activities

The company classifies cash inflows and
outflows related to derivative and hedging instruments in the appropriate cash flow sections associated with the item being hedged. In the case of heating oil swaps that are used to mitigate the fluctuations in the price of diesel fuel, the cash
inflows and outflows are included in the operations section. For natural gas and interest rate swaps, the cash inflows and outflows are also included in the operating section. For the year ended Dec. 31, 2007, crude oil options that protected the
cash flows related to the sales of investor interests in the synthetic fuel production facilities were included in the investing section.

Other Income
and Minority Interest

In 2007, TECO Energy earned a portion of its income indirectly through the synthetic fuel operations at TECO
Coal. At Mar. 31, 2007, TECO Coal had sold ownership interests in the synthetic fuel facilities to unrelated third-party investors equal to 98%. These investors paid for the purchase of the ownership interests as synthetic fuel was produced. The
payments were based on the amount of production and sales of synthetic fuel and the related underlying value of the tax credit, which was subject to potential limitation based on the price of domestic crude oil. These payments were recorded in
Other income in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income. Additionally, the outside investors made payments towards the cost of producing synthetic fuel. These payments were reflected as a benefit under Minority
interest in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income, and comprised the majority of that line item. The synthetic fuel operations were terminated on Dec. 31, 2007 concurrent with the termination of the tax credit program.

For the three month period ended Mar. 31, 2008, Other income included the final adjustment of $0.9 million to the 2007 inflation factor
applied to the tax credit available on the production of synthetic fuel in 2007. For the three month period ended Mar. 31, 2007, Other income also included an estimated phase-out of approximately 14%, or $6.6 million pretax, of the
benefit of the underlying value of the tax credit based on the internal estimate of the average annual price of domestic crude oil during the first three months of 2007.

Purchased Power

Tampa Electric purchases power on a regular basis to meet the needs of its
customers. Tampa Electric purchased power from entities not affiliated with TECO Energy at a cost of $81.9 million and $53.6 million for the three months ended Mar. 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Prudently incurred purchased power costs at Tampa
Electric have historically been recoverable through Florida Public Service Commission (FPSC) approved cost recovery clauses.

Accounting for Franchise Fees and Gross Receipts

The regulated utilities (Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas System (PGS)) are allowed to recover from customers certain costs incurred through rates approved
by the FPSC. The amounts included in customers bills for franchise fees and gross receipt taxes are included as revenues on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income. These amounts totaled $26.4 million and $27.0 million,
respectively, for the three months ended Mar. 31, 2008 and 2007. Franchise fees and gross receipt taxes payable by the regulated utilities are included as an expense on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income in Taxes, other than
income. These totaled $26.2 million and $26.9 million, respectively, for the three months ended Mar. 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

2.
New Accounting Pronouncements

Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 161, Disclosures about
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities(FAS 161). FAS 161 was issued to enhance the disclosure framework in SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (FAS 133). FAS 161 requires
enhanced disclosures about the purpose of an entitys derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and hedged items are accounted for, and how the entitys financial position, cash flows, and performance are enhanced by the
derivative instruments and hedged items. The guidance in FAS 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after Nov. 15, 2008. The company does not believe FAS 161 will be material to its results of operations, statement of
position or cash flows.

Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets and Repurchase Financing Transactions

In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. 140-3, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets and Repurchase Financing
Transactions(FSP 140-3). FSP 140-3 provides guidance when a company enters an agreement (or linked agreements) to transfer a financial asset and establish a repurchase financing. FSP 140-3 prohibits separately accounting for the initial
transfer and the repurchase financing unless certain criteria are met. The guidance in FSP 140-3 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after Nov. 15, 2008. The company does not believe FSP 140-3 will be material to its results
of operations, statement of position or cash flows.

Statement 133 Implementation Issue E23

In January 2008, the FASB cleared Implementation Issue Hedging  General: Issues Involving the Application of the Shortcut Method under Paragraph
68 (Issue E23). Issue E23 amends FAS 133, paragraph 68 to include hedged items with trade dates differing from their settlement dates due to generally established conventions in the marketplace. This allows companies to assume these commitments
have no ineffectiveness in a hedging relationship, thus allowing use of the shortcut method for accounting purposes assuming all other conditions within the paragraph are met.

Issue E23 also allows use of the shortcut method if the fair value of an interest rate swap is not zero at inception of the hedge as long as the swap was
entered into at the relationships inception, there was no transaction price of the swap in the companys principal or most advantageous market, and the difference between the swaps fair value and transaction price is due to
differing prices within the bid-ask spread between the entry transaction and a hypothetical exit transaction.

The effective date for Issue
E23 is for hedging relationships entered into on or after Jan. 1, 2008. The company does not believe Issue E23 will be material to its results of operations, statement of position or cash flows.

Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements(FAS 160). FAS 160 was issued to improve the relevance, comparability and transparency of the financial information
provided by requiring: ownership interests be presented in the consolidated statement of financial position separate from parent equity; the amount of net income attributable to the parent and the noncontrolling interest be identified and presented
on the face of the consolidated statement of income; changes in the parents ownership interest be accounted for consistently; when deconsolidating, that any retained equity interest be measured at fair value; and that sufficient disclosures
identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and noncontrolling owners. The guidance in FAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after Dec. 15, 2008. The company is currently assessing the impact of FAS 160, but does not
believe it will be material to its results of operations, statement of position or cash flows.

Business Combinations (Revised)

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations(FAS 141R). FAS 141R was issued to improve the relevance,
representational faithfulness, and comparability of information disclosed in financial statements about business combinations. The Statement establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer: 1) recognizes and measures the assets
acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree; 2) recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired; and 3) determines what information to disclose for users of financial statements to evaluate the effects

of the business combination. The guidance in FAS 141R is effective prospectively for any business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after
the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after Dec. 15, 2008. The company will assess the impact of FAS 141R in the event it enters into a business combination whose expected acquisition date is subsequent to the required
adoption date.

Offsetting Amounts Related to Certain Contracts

In April 2007, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) FIN 39-1. This FSP amends FASB Interpretation No. 39, Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Contracts by allowing an entity to offset fair value
amounts recognized for the right to reclaim cash collateral (a receivable) or the obligation to return cash collateral (a payable) against fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty under a master
netting arrangement. The guidance in this FSP is effective for fiscal years beginning after Nov. 15, 2007. The company adopted this FSP effective Jan. 1, 2008 and as of Mar. 31, 2008 did not hold or give collateral.

Fair Value Option For Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial LiabilitiesIncluding an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (FAS 159). FAS 159 permits
entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The objective of FAS 159 is to provide opportunities to mitigate volatility in reported
earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply hedge accounting provisions. FAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after Nov. 15, 2007. The company adopted FAS 159 effective Jan. 1, 2008, but
did not elect to measure any financial instruments at fair value. Accordingly, its adoption did not have any effect on its results of operations, statement of position or cash flows.

Fair Value Measurements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements(FAS 157). FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 emphasizes that fair value is a
market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and states that a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. FAS 157 applies under other
accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements.

FAS 157, among other things, requires the company to maximize
the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value, and specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. SFAS 157
defines the following fair value hierarchy, based on these two types of inputs:



| |  |  | Level 1  Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2  Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not
active; and model derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3  Model derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The effective date was for fiscal years beginning after Nov. 15, 2007. In November of 2007, the FASB informally granted
a one year deferral for non-financial assets and liabilities. In February 2008, the FASB issued FSP 157-2 which formally delayed the effective date of FAS 157 to fiscal years beginning after Nov. 15, 2008. This FSP is applicable to non-financial
assets and non-financial liabilities except for items that are required to be recognized or disclosed at fair value at least annually in the companys financial statements. As a result, the company adopted FAS 157 effective Jan. 1, 2008 for
financial assets and liabilities. See Note 13, Fair Value Measurements.

Additionally, the FASB issued FSP 157-1 in February 2008 to
exclude FAS 13, Accounting for Leases, and related pronouncements addressing lease fair value measurements from the scope of FAS 157. Assets and liabilities assumed in a business combination are not covered under this scope exception. The
effective date of this FSP coincides with the adoption of FAS 157.

The company will continue to evaluate FAS 157 for the remaining
non-financial assets and liabilities to be included effective Jan. 1, 2009. The company does not believe applying FAS 157 to the remaining non-financial assets and liabilities will be material to its results of operations, statement of position or
cash flows.

3. Regulatory

Cost Recovery 
Tampa Electric Company and PGS

Tampa Electric Company and PGS recover the cost of fuel, purchased power, eligible environmental
expenditures, and conservation through cost recovery clauses that are adjusted on an annual basis. As part of the regulatory process, it is reasonably likely that third parties may intervene in various matters related to fuel, purchased power,
environmental and conservation cost recovery.

SO2Emission Allowances

The Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 (Clean Air Act) established SO2allowances to manage the achievement of
SO2emissions requirements. The legislation also established a market-based SO2allowance trading component.

An allowance
authorizes a utility to emit one ton of SO2during a given year. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) allocates allowances to utilities based
on mandated emissions reductions. At the end of each year, a utility must hold an amount of allowances at least equal to its annual emissions. Allowances are fully marketable and, once allocated, may be bought, sold, traded or banked for use in
current or future years. In addition, the EPA withholds a small percentage of the annual SO2allowances it allocates to utilities for auction sales.
Any resulting auction proceeds are then forwarded to the respective utilities. Allowances may not be used for compliance prior to the calendar year for which they are allocated. Tampa Electric accounts for these using an inventory model with a zero
basis for those allowances allocated to the company. Tampa Electric recognizes a gain at the time of sale, approximately 95% of which accrues to retail customers through the environmental cost recovery clause. These gains are reflected in
Revenues-Regulated electric and gas on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income.

Over the years, Tampa Electric has acquired allowances through EPA allocations. Also, over time, Tampa Electric has sold unneeded allowances based on compliance and allowances available. The SO2allowances unneeded and sold resulted from lower emissions at Tampa Electric brought about by environmental actions taken by the company under the Clean Air
Act.

During the three months ended Mar. 31, 2008, approximately 2,500 allowances were sold resulting in proceeds of $1.0 million. No
allowances were sold during the three months ended Mar. 31, 2007.

Regulatory Assets and Liabilities

Tampa Electric and PGS maintain their accounts in accordance with recognized policies of the FPSC. In addition, Tampa Electric maintains its accounts in
accordance with recognized policies prescribed or permitted by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).

apply the accounting treatment permitted by SFAS No. 71, Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation (FAS 71). Areas of applicability include: deferral of revenues under approved regulatory agreements; revenue
recognition resulting from cost recovery clauses that provide for monthly billing charges to reflect increases or decreases in fuel, purchased power, conservation and environmental costs; and the deferral of costs as regulatory assets to the period
that the regulatory agency recognizes them when cost recovery is ordered over a period longer than a fiscal year. Details of the regulatory assets and liabilities as of Mar. 31, 2008 and Dec. 31, 2007 are presented in the following table:

4. Income Taxes

The companys U.S. subsidiaries join in the filing of a U.S. federal consolidated income tax return. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) concluded its examination of the companys consolidated federal income
tax returns for the years 2005 and 2006 during 2007. The U.S. federal statute of limitations remains open for the year 2007 and onward. Year 2007 is currently under examination by the IRS under the Compliance Assurance Program, a program in which
the company is a participant. The company does not expect the settlement of current IRS examinations to significantly change the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits for the 2007 tax year. Foreign and U.S. state jurisdictions have statutes of
limitations generally ranging from three to five years from the filing of an income tax return. The state impact of any federal changes remains subject to examination by various states for a period of up to one year after formal notification to the
states. Years still open to examination by tax authorities in major state and foreign jurisdictions include 2002 and onward.

The company
recognizes interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income. During the three month periods ended Mar. 31, 2008 and Mar. 31, 2007, the company recorded approximately $0.2 million of
pre-tax charges for interest only in each of those periods. No amounts have been recorded for penalties for the three month periods ended Mar. 31, 2008 and Mar. 31, 2007.

During the three month periods ended Mar. 31, 2008 and Mar. 31, 2007, the company experienced a number of events that have impacted the overall effective tax rate on continuing operations. These events included
permanent reinvestment of foreign income under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 23, Accounting for Taxes  Special Areas, depletion, repatriation of foreign source income to the United States, and reduction of income tax
expense under the new tonnage tax regime.

5. Employee Postretirement Benefits

Included in the table below is the periodic expense for pension and other postretirement benefits offered by the company. The obligations of the
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) were remeasured as of Jan. 1, 2008 to reflect the impact on this benefit plan of the settlement of the SERP obligations related to the retirement of certain participants. Settlement costs of $0.9 million
that reflect the accelerated recognition of previously deferred actuarial gains were reclassed from accumulated other comprehensive income. These costs were recognized in the quarter ended Mar. 31, 2008 and are included in Operation other
expense - Other in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income. Other than the remeasurement of plan obligations for these participant retirements and, as discussed in Amendment No. 1 to the companys Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended Dec. 31, 2007, the impacts of the termination of TECO Transport employees participation in these plans as a result of the sale of TECO Transport in December 2007, no significant changes have been made to these benefit plans
since Dec. 31, 2003.

For the fiscal 2008 plan year, TECO Energy assumed an expected long-term return on plan assets of
8.25% and a discount rate of 5.90% for pension benefits under its qualified pension plan as of its Dec. 4, 2007 remeasurement date; a discount rate of 5.90% for its SERP benefits as of its Jan. 1, 2008 remeasurement date; and a discount rate of
6.20% for other postretirement benefits at its Sep. 30, 2007 measurement date. As a result of the Dec. 4, 2007 and Jan. 1, 2008 remeasurements, benefit obligations for the pension plans increased $18.5 million.

Effective Dec. 31, 2006, in accordance with FAS 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, TECO
Energy adjusted its postretirement benefit obligations and recorded other comprehensive income (loss) to reflect the unamortized transition obligation, prior service cost, and actuarial gains and losses of its postretirement

benefit plans. The adjustment to other comprehensive income was net of amounts that, for regulatory purposes prescribed by FAS 71, were recorded as
regulatory assets for Tampa Electric Company. For the three months ended Mar. 31, 2008, TECO Energy and its subsidiaries reclassed $0.5 million of unamortized transition obligation, prior service cost and actuarial gains and losses from accumulated
other comprehensive income to net income as part of periodic benefit expense. In addition, during the three months ended Mar. 31, 2008, Tampa Electric Company reclassed $1.4 million of unamortized transition obligation, prior service cost and

7. Long-Term Debt

Remarketing and Repurchase in Lieu of Redemption of Tampa Electric Companys Tax-Exempt Auction Rate Bonds

On Mar. 19,
2008, the Hillsborough County Industrial Development Authority (HCIDA) remarketed $86.0 million Pollution Control Revenue Refunding Bonds (Tampa Electric Company Project), Series 2006, in a fixed-rate mode pursuant to the terms of the Loan and Trust
Agreement governing those bonds. The bonds, which previously had been in auction rate mode, bear interest at 5.00% per annum and are subject to mandatory tender for purchase on Mar. 15, 2012 from the proceeds of a remarketing of the bonds.
Tampa Electric Company is responsible for payment of the interest and principal associated with the bonds. Regularly scheduled principal and interest when due is insured by Ambac Assurance Corporation, as more fully described in our 2007 Annual
Report on Form 10-K.

On Mar. 26, 2008, Tampa Electric Company purchased in lieu of redemption $75.0 million Polk County Industrial
Development Authority (PCIDA) Solid Waste Disposal Revenue Refunding Bonds (Tampa Electric Company Project), Series 2007 and $125.8 million HCIDA Pollution Control Revenue Refunding Bonds (Tampa Electric Company Project), Series 2007A, B and C (the
2007 Bonds). Also on that date, the Insurance Agreement dated as of Jul. 27, 2007 with Financial Guaranty Insurance Company, pursuant to which Financial Guaranty Insurance Company issued a financial guaranty insurance policy for the
HCIDA Pollution Control Revenue Refunding Bonds (Tampa Electric Company Project), Series 2007A, B and C bonds (the 2007 HCIDA Bonds), was terminated. The company also entered into a corresponding First Supplemental Loan and Trust
Agreement regarding the removal of the bond insurance on the 2007 HCIDA Bonds. After these changes to the 2007 HCIDA Bonds, the company remarketed the $54.2 million Series A and the $51.6 million Series B 2007 bonds in long term interest rate modes.
The $54.2 million Series A bonds, which previously had been in auction rate mode, bear interest at 5.65% per annum until maturity on Mar. 15, 2018. The $51.6 million Series B bonds, which previously had been in auction rate mode, bear interest
at 5.15% per annum and will be subject to mandatory tender on Sep. 1, 2013 from the proceeds of a remarketing of the bonds. Tampa Electric Company is responsible for payment of the interest and principal associated with the 2007 Bonds.

As a result of these transactions, $95.0 million of the bonds purchased in lieu of redemption were held by the trustee at the direction of
Tampa Electric Company as of Mar. 31, 2008 (the Held Bonds) to provide an opportunity to evaluate refinancing alternatives. The Held Bonds effectively offset the outstanding debt balances and are presented net on the balance sheet.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Contingencies

From time to time, TECO Energy and its subsidiaries are involved in various
legal, tax and regulatory proceedings before various courts, regulatory commissions and governmental agencies in the ordinary course of its business. Where appropriate, accruals are made in accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for
Contingencies, to provide for matters that are probable of resulting in an estimable, material loss. While the outcome of such proceedings is uncertain, management does not believe that their ultimate resolution will have a material adverse
effect on the companys results of operations or financial condition.

Superfund and Former Manufactured Gas Plant Sites

Tampa Electric Company, through its Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas divisions, is a potentially responsible party (PRP) for certain superfund sites and,
through its Peoples Gas division, for certain former manufactured gas plant sites. While the joint and several liability associated with these sites presents the potential for significant response costs, as of Mar. 31, 2008, Tampa Electric Company
has estimated its ultimate financial liability to be approximately $11.5 million, and this amount has been accrued in the companys financial statements. The environmental remediation costs associated with these sites, which are expected to be
paid over many years, are not expected to have a significant impact on customer prices.

The estimated amounts represent only the estimated
portion of the cleanup costs attributable to Tampa Electric Company. The estimates to perform the work are based on actual estimates obtained from contractors, or Tampa Electric Companys experience with similar work adjusted for site specific
conditions and agreements with the respective governmental agencies. The estimates are made in current dollars, are not discounted and do not assume any insurance recoveries.

Allocation of the responsibility for remediation costs among Tampa Electric Company and other PRPs is based on each partys relative ownership
interest in or usage of a site. Accordingly, Tampa Electric Companys share of remediation costs varies with each site. In virtually all instances where other PRPs are involved, those PRPs are considered creditworthy.

Factors that could impact these estimates include the ability of other PRPs to pay their pro-rata portion of the cleanup costs, additional testing and
investigation which could expand the scope of the cleanup activities, additional liability that might arise from the cleanup activities themselves and changes in laws or regulations that could require additional remediation. These costs are
recoverable through customer rates established in subsequent base rate proceedings.

12. Derivatives and
Hedging

At Mar. 31, 2008, TECO Energy and its affiliates had total derivative assets and liabilities (current and non-current) of $80.6
million and $16.4 million, respectively, compared to total derivative assets and liabilities (current and non-current) of $2.2 million and $26.1 million, respectively, at Dec. 31, 2007. At Mar. 31, 2008 and Dec. 31, 2007, accumulated other
comprehensive income (AOCI) included after-tax losses of $12.1 million and $6.2 million, respectively, representing the fair



18

value of cash flow hedges of transactions that will occur in the future. Amounts recorded in AOCI reflect the estimated fair value of derivative instruments
designated as hedges, based on market prices as of the balance sheet date. These amounts are expected to fluctuate with movements in market prices and may or may not be realized as a loss upon future reclassification from AOCI.

For the three months ended Mar. 31, 2007, TECO Energy and its affiliates reclassified amounts from AOCI and recognized net pretax losses of $0.3 million.
No amounts were reclassed for the same period in 2008. (See Note 8, Other Comprehensive Income.) Amounts reclassified from AOCI in 2007 were primarily related to cash flow hedges of physical purchases of fuel oil. For these types of
hedge relationships, the loss on the derivative reclassified from AOCI to earnings is offset by the decreased expense arising from higher prices paid for spot purchases of fuel oil. Conversely, reclassification of a gain from AOCI to earnings is
offset by the increased cost of spot purchases of fuel oil.

The company expects to reclass pretax losses of $2.8 million from AOCI to the
Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income within the next twelve months. However, these losses and other future reclassifications from AOCI will fluctuate with movements in the underlying market price of the derivative instruments. These losses
are primarily related to interest rate swaps. The company does not currently have any cash flow hedges for transactions forecasted to take place in periods subsequent to 2010.

As a result of applying the provisions of FAS 71, the changes in value of natural gas derivatives of Tampa Electric and PGS are recorded as regulatory
assets or liabilities to reflect the impact of the fuel recovery clause on the risks of hedging activities (see Note 3, Regulatory). Based on the fair value of cash flow hedges at Mar. 31, 2008, net pretax gains of $72.2 million are expected
to be reclassified from regulatory assets to the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income within the next twelve months.

For the three
months ended Mar. 31, 2007, the company recognized a pretax gain of $18.8 million relating to crude oil options that were not designated as either a cash flow or fair value hedge.

13. Fair Value Measurements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements (FAS 157). FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 emphasizes that fair value is a
market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and states that a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. FAS 157 applies under other
accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements.

FAS 157, among other things, requires the company to maximize
the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. It also requires recognition of trade-date gains related to certain derivative transactions whose fair value has been determined using unobservable
market inputs. This guidance supersedes the guidance in Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 02-3, "Issues Involved in Accounting for Derivative Contracts Held for Trading Purposes and Contracts Involved in Energy Trading and Risk Management
Activities" (EITF Issue 02-3), which prohibited the recognition of trade-date gains for such derivative transactions when determining the fair value of instruments not traded in an active market.

On Nov. 14, 2007, the FASB reaffirmed its position that companies will be required to implement the standard for financial assets and liabilities, as
well as for any other assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis in financial statements. The FASB did, however, provide a one year deferral for the implementation of FAS 157 for other non-financial assets and
liabilities. Effective Jan. 1, 2008, the company adopted FAS 157 for financial assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis.

FAS 157 is applied prospectively as of the first interim period for the fiscal year in which it is initially adopted, except for limited retrospective adoption for the following three items:



| |  |  | The valuation of financial instruments using blockage factors;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Financial instruments that were measured at fair value using the transaction price (as indicated in EITF Issue 02-3); and,
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The valuation of hybrid financial instruments that were measured at fair value using the transaction price (as indicated in FAS 155).
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The impact of adoption in these areas would be applied as a cumulative-effect adjustment to opening retained earnings, measured as the difference
between the carrying amounts and the fair values of relevant assets and liabilities at the date of adoption. TECO Energy does not have any of the three aforementioned items, and therefore no transition adjustment was recorded.

Fair Value Hierarchy

FAS 157 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. In accordance with FAS 157, these two types of inputs have created
the following fair value hierarchy:



| |  |  | Level 1  Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in
which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, listed equities and
U.S. government treasury securities.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2  Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable
as of the reporting date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward
prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace
throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Instruments in this category include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as
OTC forwards, options and repurchase agreements.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3  Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally not observable in the marketplace. These inputs may be used with
internally developed methodologies that result in managements best estimate of fair value. Level 3 instruments include those that may be more structured or otherwise tailored to customers needs. At each balance sheet date, the company
performs an analysis of all instruments subject to FAS 157 and includes in Level 3 all of those whose fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available.

Determination of Fair Value

The company measures fair value using the procedures set forth below for
all assets and liabilities measured at fair value that were previously carried at fair value pursuant to other accounting guidelines.

When
available, the company uses quoted market prices on assets and liabilities traded on an exchange to determine fair value and classifies such items as Level 1. In some cases where a market exchange price is available, but the assets and liabilities
are traded in a secondary market, the company makes use of acceptable practical expedients to calculate fair value, and classifies such items as Level 2.

If observable transactions and other market data are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that use, when available, current market-based or independently-sourced market parameters such
as interest rates, currency rates or option volatilities. Items valued using internally generated models are classified according to the lowest level input or value driver that is most significant to the valuation. Thus, an item may be classified in
Level 3 even though there may be significant inputs that are readily observable.

Valuation Techniques

FAS 157 describes three main approaches to measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities:

1) Market Approach The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable
assets or liabilities (including a business). The market approach includes the use of matrix pricing.

2) Income Approach The income
approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present amount (discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts.

3) Cost Approach The cost approach is based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset
(often referred to as current replacement cost). The cost approach assumes that the fair value would not exceed what it would cost a market participant to acquire or construct a substitute asset of comparable utility, adjusted for obsolescence.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the company's financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair
value on a recurring basis as of Mar. 31, 2008. As required by FAS 157, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The company's assessment
of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. For natural gas and interest
rate swaps, the market approach was used in determining fair value. For other investments, the income approach was used.

Natural gas and interest rate swaps are over-the-counter swap instruments. The primary pricing
inputs in determining the fair value of natural gas swaps are the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) quoted closing prices of exchange-traded instruments. These prices are applied to the notional amounts of active positions to determine the
reported fair value. The primary pricing inputs in determining the fair value of interest rate swaps are LIBOR swap rates as reported by Bloomberg. For each instrument, the projected forward swap rate is used to determine the stream of cash flows
over the tenor of the contract. The cash flows are then discounted using a spot discount rate to determine the fair value. An additional $3.2 million liability, primarily in interest rate swaps, is held on the books of unconsolidated affiliates of
TECO Guatemala, but is reflected in Investment in unconsolidated affiliates on the TECO Energy, Inc. Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Other investments reflect two auction rate securities with a combined par value of $15.0 million. As a result of market conditions, TECO Guatemala changed the valuation technique for these securities to an income approach using a discounted
cash flow model. Accordingly, these securities changed to Level 3 within FAS 157s three tier fair value hierarchy since initial valuation at Jan. 1, 2008.

Based on the fair value determined from the discounted cash flow analysis a temporary impairment was recorded in other comprehensive income. These investments are highly rated and significantly backed by a pool of
student loans. Therefore, it is expected that the investments will not be settled at a price less than par value. Because the company has the ability and intent to hold this investment until a recovery of its original investment value, it considers
the investment to be temporarily impaired at Mar. 31, 2008.

14. Mergers, Acquisitions and Dispositions

Sale of TECO Transport

On Dec. 4, 2007, TECO Diversified, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
company, sold its entire interest in TECO Transport Corporation for cash to an unaffiliated investment group. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (FAS 144), as a result
of its significant continuing involvement with Tampa Electric Company related to the waterborne transportation of solid fuel, the results of TECO Transport were reflected in continuing operations for the three months ended Mar. 31, 2007.

Tampa Electric paid United Maritime Group, formerly TECO Transport Corporation, $19.1 million and $24.0 million for the waterborne transportation
services described above for the three month periods ended Mar. 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

TAMPA ELECTRIC COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

UNAUDITED

1. Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies

The significant accounting policies are as follows:

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

Tampa Electric Company is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of TECO Energy, Inc., and is comprised of the Electric division, generally referred to as Tampa Electric, and the Natural Gas division, generally referred to as Peoples Gas System (PGS). All significant intercompany balances and
intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements include all adjustments that are of a recurring nature and necessary to state fairly the
financial position of Tampa Electric Company and subsidiaries as of Mar. 31, 2008 and Dec. 31, 2007, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended Mar. 31, 2008 and 2007. The results of operations for the three month periods
ended Mar. 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the entire fiscal year ending Dec. 31, 2008.

The use of estimates is inherent in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Actual results could differ from these estimates. The year end condensed balance sheet data was
derived from audited financial statements, however this quarterly report on Form 10-Q does not include all year end disclosures required for an annual report on Form 10-K by GAAP in the United States of America.

Revenues

As of Mar. 31, 2008 and Dec. 31, 2007,
unbilled revenues of $46.5 million and $46.6 million, respectively, are included in the Receivables line item on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.

Purchased Power

Tampa Electric purchases power on a regular basis to meet the needs of its
customers. Tampa Electric purchased power from entities not affiliated with TECO Energy at a cost of $81.9 million and $53.6 million for the three months ended Mar. 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Prudently incurred purchased power costs at Tampa
Electric have historically been recoverable through Florida Public Service Commission (FPSC)-approved cost recovery clauses.

Accounting for Franchise
Fees and Gross Receipts

The regulated utilities (Tampa Electric and PGS) are allowed to recover from customers certain costs incurred
through rates approved by the FPSC. The amounts included in customers bills for franchise fees and gross receipt taxes are included as revenues on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income. These amounts totaled $26.4 million and $27.0
million, respectively, for the three months ended Mar. 31, 2008 and 2007. Franchise fees and gross receipt taxes payable by the regulated utilities are included as an expense on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income in Taxes, other
than income. These totaled $26.2 million and $26.9 million, respectively, for the three months ended Mar. 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

2. New
Accounting Pronouncements

Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 161, Disclosures about
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities(FAS 161). FAS 161 was issued to enhance the disclosure framework in SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (FAS 133). FAS 161 requires
enhanced disclosures about the purpose of an entitys derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and hedged items are accounted for, and how the entitys financial position, cash flows, and performance are enhanced by the
derivative instruments and hedged items. The guidance in FAS 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after Nov. 15, 2008. The company does not believe FAS 161 will be material to its results of operations, statement of
position or cash flows.

Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets and Repurchase Financing Transactions

In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. 140-3, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets and Repurchase Financing
Transactions(FSP 140-3). FSP 140-3 provides guidance when a company enters an agreement (or linked agreements) to transfer a financial asset and establish a repurchase financing. FSP 140-3 prohibits separately accounting for the initial
transfer and the repurchase financing unless certain criteria are met. The guidance in FSP 140-3 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after Nov. 15, 2008. The company does not believe FSP 140-3 will be material to its results
of operations, statement of position or cash flows.



28



---

Statement 133 Implementation Issue E23

In January 2008, the FASB cleared Implementation Issue Hedging  General: Issues Involving the Application of the Shortcut Method under Paragraph
68 (Issue E23). Issue E23 amends FAS 133, paragraph 68 to include hedged items with trade dates differing from their settlement dates due to generally established conventions in the marketplace. This allows companies to assume these commitments
have no ineffectiveness in a hedging relationship, thus allowing use of the shortcut method for accounting purposes assuming all other conditions within the paragraph are met.

Issue E23 also allows use of the shortcut method if the fair value of an interest rate swap is not zero at inception of the hedge as long as the swap was
entered into at the relationships inception, there was no transaction price of the swap in the companys principal or most advantageous market, and the difference between the swaps fair value and transaction price is due to
differing prices within the bid-ask spread between the entry transaction and a hypothetical exit transaction.

The effective date for Issue
E23 is for hedging relationships entered into on or after Jan. 1, 2008. The company does not believe Issue E23 will be material to its results of operations, statement of position or cash flows.

Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements(FAS 160). FAS 160 was issued to improve the relevance, comparability and transparency of the financial information
provided by requiring: ownership interests be presented in the consolidated statement of financial position separate from parent equity; the amount of net income attributable to the parent and the noncontrolling interest be identified and presented
on the face of the consolidated statement of income; changes in the parents ownership interest be accounted for consistently; when deconsolidating, that any retained equity interest be measured at fair value; and that sufficient disclosures
identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and noncontrolling owners. The guidance in FAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after Dec. 15, 2008. The company is currently assessing the impact of FAS 160, but does not
believe it will be material to its results of operations, statement of position or cash flows.

Business Combinations (Revised)

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations(FAS 141R). FAS 141R was issued to improve the relevance,
representational faithfulness, and comparability of information disclosed in financial statements about business combinations. The Statement establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer: 1) recognizes and measures the assets
acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree; 2) recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired; and 3) determines what information to disclose for users of financial statements to evaluate the effects of the
business combination. The guidance in FAS 141R is effective prospectively for any business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after Dec. 15, 2008. The company
will assess the impact of FAS 141R in the event it enters into a business combination whose expected acquisition date is subsequent to the required adoption date.

Offsetting Amounts Related to Certain Contracts

In April 2007, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) FIN 39-1. This FSP
amends FASB Interpretation No. 39, Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Contracts by allowing an entity to offset fair value amounts recognized for the right to reclaim cash collateral (a receivable) or the obligation to return cash
collateral (a payable) against fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty under a master netting arrangement. The guidance in this FSP is effective for fiscal years beginning after Nov. 15, 2007. The
company adopted this FSP effective Jan. 1, 2008 and as of Mar. 31, 2008 did not hold or give collateral.

Fair Value Option For Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
LiabilitiesIncluding an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (FAS 159). FAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at
fair value. The objective of FAS 159 is to provide opportunities to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply hedge accounting provisions. FAS 159 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after Nov. 15, 2007. The company adopted FAS 159 effective Jan. 1, 2008, but did not elect to measure any financial instruments at fair value. Accordingly, its adoption did not have any effect on its results of operations,
statement of position or cash flows.

Fair Value Measurements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements(FAS 157). FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting
principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and states that a fair value measurement should be determined based on the
assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. FAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements.



29



---

FAS 157, among other things, requires the company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize
the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value, and specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. SFAS 157 defines the following fair value
hierarchy, based on these two types of inputs:



| |  |  | Level 1  Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2  Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not
active; and model derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3  Model derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The effective date was for fiscal years beginning after Nov. 15, 2007. In November of 2007, the FASB informally granted
a one year deferral for non-financial assets and liabilities. In February 2008, the FASB issued FSP 157-2 which formally delayed the effective date of FAS 157 to fiscal years beginning after Nov. 15, 2008. This FSP is applicable to non-financial
assets and non-financial liabilities except for items that are required to be recognized or disclosed at fair value at least annually in the companys financial statements. As a result, the company adopted FAS 157 effective Jan. 1, 2008 for
financial assets and liabilities. See Note 12, Fair Value Measurements.

Additionally, the FASB issued FSP 157-1 in February 2008 to
exclude FAS 13, Accounting for Leases, and related pronouncements addressing lease fair value measurements from the scope of FAS 157. Assets and liabilities assumed in a business combination are not covered under this scope exception. The
effective date of this FSP coincides with the adoption of FAS 157.

The company will continue to evaluate FAS 157 for the remaining
non-financial assets and liabilities to be included effective Jan. 1, 2009. The company does not believe applying FAS 157 to the remaining non-financial assets and liabilities will be material to its results of operations, statement of position or
cash flows.

3. Regulatory

Cost Recovery 
Tampa Electric Company and PGS

Tampa Electric Company and PGS recover the cost of fuel, purchased power, eligible environmental
expenditures, and conservation through cost recovery clauses that are adjusted on an annual basis. As part of the regulatory process, it is reasonably likely that third parties may intervene in various matters related to fuel, purchased power,
environmental and conservation cost recovery.

SO2Emission Allowances

The Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 (Clean Air Act) established SO2allowances to manage the achievement of
SO2emissions requirements. The legislation also established a market-based SO2allowance trading component.

An allowance
authorizes a utility to emit one ton of SO2during a given year. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) allocates allowances to utilities based
on mandated emissions reductions. At the end of each year, a utility must hold an amount of allowances at least equal to its annual emissions. Allowances are fully marketable and, once allocated, may be bought, sold, traded or banked for use in
current or future years. In addition, the EPA withholds a small percentage of the annual SO2allowances it allocates to utilities for auction sales.
Any resulting auction proceeds are then forwarded to the respective utilities. Allowances may not be used for compliance prior to the calendar year for which they are allocated. Tampa Electric accounts for these using an inventory model with a zero
basis for those allowances allocated to the company. Tampa Electric recognizes a gain at the time of sale, approximately 95% of which accrues to retail customers through the environmental cost recovery clause. These gains are reflected in
Revenues-Regulated electric and gas on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income.

Over the years, Tampa Electric has acquired allowances through EPA allocations. Also, over time, Tampa Electric has sold unneeded allowances based on compliance and allowances available. The SO2allowances unneeded and sold resulted from lower emissions at Tampa Electric brought about by environmental actions taken by the company under the Clean Air
Act.

During the three months ended Mar. 31, 2008, approximately 2,500 allowances were sold resulting in proceeds of $1.0 million. No
allowances were sold during the three months ended Mar. 31, 2007.

Regulatory Assets and Liabilities

Tampa Electric and PGS maintain their accounts in accordance with recognized policies of the FPSC. In addition, Tampa Electric maintains its accounts in
accordance with recognized policies prescribed or permitted by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).

Tampa Electric and PGS
apply the accounting treatment permitted by SFAS No. 71, Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation (FAS 71). Areas of applicability include: deferral of revenues under approved regulatory agreements; revenue recognition
resulting from cost recovery clauses that provide for monthly billing charges to reflect increases or

decreases in fuel, purchased power, conservation and environmental costs; and the deferral of costs as regulatory assets to the period that the regulatory
agency recognizes them when cost recovery is ordered over a period longer than a fiscal year. Details of the regulatory assets and liabilities as of Mar. 31, 2008 and Dec. 31, 2007 are presented in the following table:

4. Income Taxes

Tampa Electric Company is included
in the filing of a consolidated federal income tax return with TECO Energy and its affiliates. Tampa Electric Companys income tax expense is based upon a separate return computation. Tampa Electric Companys effective tax rates for the
three months ended Mar. 31, 2008 and 2007 differ from the statutory rate principally due to state income taxes, amortization of investment tax credits and the domestic activity production deduction.

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) concluded its examination of the companys consolidated federal income tax returns for the years 2005 and 2006
during 2007. The U.S. federal statute of limitations remains open for the year 2007 and onward. Year 2007 is currently under examination by the IRS under the Compliance Assurance Program, a program in which TECO Energy is a participant. TECO Energy
does not expect the settlement of current IRS examinations to significantly change the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits for the 2007 tax year. State jurisdictions have statutes of limitations generally ranging from three to five years from
the filing of an income tax return. The state impact of any federal changes remains subject to examination by various states for a period of up to one year after formal notification to the states. Years still open to examination by tax authorities
in major state jurisdictions include 2004 and onward.

The company does not currently have any uncertain tax positions and does not
anticipate that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease by the end of 2008.

5. Employee Postretirement
Benefits

Tampa Electric Company is a participant in the comprehensive retirement plans of TECO Energy. Effective Jan. 1, 2004, Tampa
Electric Company adopted FAS 132R (revised 2003), Employers Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88 and 106, with no material effect. No significant changes have been
made to these benefit plans since Dec. 31, 2003.

Amounts allocable to all participants of the TECO Energy retirement plans are found in
Note 5, Employee Postretirement Benefits, in the TECO Energy, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. Tampa Electric Companys portion of the net pension expense for the three months ended Mar. 31, 2008
and 2007, respectively, was $2.1 million and $3.5 million for pension benefits, and $3.5 million and $3.6 million for other postretirement benefits.

Included in the benefit expenses discussed above, for the three months ended Mar. 31, 2008, Tampa Electric Company reclassed $1.4 million of unamortized transition obligation, prior service cost and actuarial losses
from regulatory assets to net income.

For the fiscal 2008 plan year, TECO Energy assumed an expected long-term return on plan assets of
8.25% and a discount rate of 5.90% for pension benefits under its qualified pension plan as of its Dec. 4, 2007 remeasurement date; a discount rate of 5.90% for its SERP benefits as of its Jan. 1, 2008 remeasurement date; and a discount rate of
6.20% for other postretirement benefits at its Sep. 30, 2007 measurement date. As a result of the Dec. 4, 2007 and Jan. 1, 2008 remeasurements, total benefit obligations for the pension plans increased $18.5 million.

weighted-average interest rate on outstanding amounts payable under the credit facilities at Mar. 31, 2008 and Dec. 31, 2007 was 2.83% and 4.76%, respectively.

7. Long-Term Debt

Remarketing and Repurchase in Lieu of Redemption of Tampa Electric Companys Tax-Exempt Auction Rate Bonds

On Mar. 19, 2008, the Hillsborough County Industrial Development Authority (HCIDA) remarketed $86.0 million Pollution Control Revenue
Refunding Bonds (Tampa Electric Company Project), Series 2006, in a fixed-rate mode pursuant to the terms of the Loan and Trust Agreement governing those bonds. The bonds, which previously had been in auction rate mode, bear interest at
5.00% per annum and are subject to mandatory tender for purchase on Mar. 15, 2012 from the proceeds of a remarketing of the bonds. Tampa Electric Company is responsible for payment of the interest and principal associated with the bonds.
Regularly scheduled principal and interest when due is insured by Ambac Assurance Corporation, as more fully described in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

On Mar. 26, 2008, Tampa Electric Company purchased in lieu of redemption $75.0 million Polk County Industrial Development Authority (PCIDA) Solid Waste Disposal Revenue Refunding Bonds (Tampa Electric Company
Project), Series 2007 and $125.8 million HCIDA Pollution Control Revenue Refunding Bonds (Tampa Electric Company Project), Series 2007A, B and C (the 2007 Bonds). Also on that date, the Insurance Agreement dated as of Jul. 27, 2007 with
Financial Guaranty Insurance Company, pursuant to which Financial Guaranty Insurance Company issued a financial guaranty insurance policy for the HCIDA Pollution Control Revenue Refunding Bonds (Tampa Electric Company Project), Series 2007A, B and C
bonds (the 2007 HCIDA Bonds), was terminated. The company also entered into a corresponding First Supplemental Loan and Trust Agreement regarding the removal of the bond insurance on the 2007 HCIDA Bonds. After these changes to the 2007
HCIDA Bonds, the company remarketed the $54.2 million Series A and the $51.6 million Series B 2007 bonds in long term interest rate modes. The $54.2 million Series A bonds, which previously had been in auction rate mode, bear interest at
5.65% per annum until maturity on Mar. 15, 2018. The $51.6 million Series B bonds, which previously had been in auction rate mode, bear interest at 5.15% per annum and will be subject to mandatory tender on Sep. 1, 2013 from the proceeds
of a remarketing of the bonds. Tampa Electric Company is responsible for payment of the interest and principal associated with the 2007 Bonds.

As a result of these transactions, $95.0 million of the bonds purchased in lieu of redemption were held by the trustee at the direction of Tampa Electric Company as of Mar. 31, 2008 (the Held Bonds) to provide an opportunity to
evaluate refinancing alternatives. The Held Bonds effectively offset the outstanding debt balances and are presented net on the balance sheet.

8.
Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Contingencies

From time to time Tampa Electric Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various legal, tax and regulatory proceedings before various courts, regulatory commissions and governmental agencies in the ordinary
course of its business. Where appropriate, accruals are made in accordance with FAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, to provide for matters that are probable of resulting in an estimable, material loss. While the outcome of such
proceedings is uncertain, management does not believe that their ultimate resolution will have a material adverse effect on the companys results of operations or financial condition.

Superfund and Former Manufactured Gas Plant Sites

Tampa Electric Company, through its Tampa Electric and Peoples Gas divisions, is a potentially responsible party (PRP) for certain superfund sites and, through its Peoples Gas division, for certain former manufactured gas plant sites. While
the joint and several liability associated with these sites presents the potential for significant response costs, as of Mar. 31, 2008, Tampa Electric Company has estimated its ultimate financial liability to be approximately $11.5 million, and this
amount has been accrued in the companys financial statements. The environmental remediation costs associated with these sites, which are expected to be paid over many years, are not expected to have a significant impact on customer prices.

The estimated amounts represent only the estimated portion of the cleanup costs attributable to Tampa Electric Company. The estimates to
perform the work are based on actual estimates obtained from contractors, or Tampa Electric Companys experience with similar work adjusted for site specific conditions and agreements with the respective governmental agencies. The estimates are
made in current dollars, are not discounted and do not assume any insurance recoveries.

Allocation of the responsibility for remediation
costs among Tampa Electric Company and other PRPs is based on each partys relative ownership interest in or usage of a site. Accordingly, Tampa Electric Companys share of remediation costs varies with each site. In virtually all
instances where other PRPs are involved, those PRPs are considered creditworthy.

Factors that could impact these estimates include the
ability of other PRPs to pay their pro-rata portion of the cleanup costs, additional testing and investigation which could expand the scope of the cleanup activities, additional liability that might arise from the cleanup activities themselves and
changes in laws or regulations that could require additional remediation. These costs are recoverable through customer rates established in subsequent base rate proceedings.

Guarantees and Letters of Credit

At Mar. 31, 2008, Tampa Electric Company was not obligated under guarantees or letters of credit for the benefit of third parties, including entities under common control. At Mar. 31, 2008, TECO Energy had provided a
fuel purchase guarantee on behalf of Tampa Electric Company and had outstanding letters of credit on behalf of Tampa Electric Company in the face amount of $20.0 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

Financial Covenants

In order to utilize its bank
credit facilities, Tampa Electric Company must meet certain financial tests as defined in the applicable agreements. In addition, Tampa Electric Company has certain restrictive covenants in specific agreements and debt instruments. At Mar. 31, 2008,
Tampa Electric Company was in compliance with applicable financial covenants.

9. Related Parties

In October 2003, Tampa Electric signed a five-year contract renewal with a then affiliated company, TECO Transport, for integrated waterborne fuel
transportation services effective Jan. 1, 2004. The contract calls for inland river and ocean transportation along with river terminal storage and blending services for up to 5.5 million tons of coal annually through 2008. TECO Transport was
sold to an unaffiliated third-party on Dec. 4, 2007. For the three months ended Mar. 31, 2008, Tampa Electric paid United Maritime Group, formerly TECO Transport and now an unrelated entity, $19.1 million. For the three months ended Mar. 31, 2007,
Tampa Electric paid TECO Transport $24.0 million.

11. Derivatives and Hedging

At Mar. 31, 2008 and Dec. 31, 2007, Tampa Electric Company and its affiliates had derivative assets (current and non-current) totaling $80.6 million and $2.2 million, respectively, and had derivative liabilities
(current and non-current) totaling $16.4 million and $26.1 million, respectively. As a result of applying the provisions of FAS 71, the changes in value of natural gas derivatives are recorded as regulatory assets or liabilities to reflect the
impact of the fuel recovery clause on the risks of hedging activities. Included in the derivative liability as of Mar. 31, 2008 is $16.3 million in interest rate swaps related to the forecasted issuance of debt in the second quarter of 2008. These
swaps qualify and are accounted for as cash flow hedges and the changes in fair value are recorded in other comprehensive income.

Based on
the fair values of derivatives at Mar. 31, 2008, net pretax gains of $72.2 million are expected to be reclassified from regulatory assets to the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income within the next twelve months. However, these amounts and
other future reclassifications from



34



---

regulatory assets or liabilities and accumulated other comprehensive income will fluctuate with movements in the underlying market price of the derivative
instruments. The company does not currently have any cash flow hedges for transactions forecasted to take place in periods subsequent to 2010.

12. Fair
Value Measurements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS 157). FAS 157 defines fair
value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific
measurement, and states that a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. FAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit
fair value measurements.

FAS 157, among other things, requires the company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use
of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. It also requires recognition of trade-date gains related to certain derivative transactions whose fair value has been determined using unobservable market inputs. This guidance supersedes the
guidance in Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 02-3, "Issues Involved in Accounting for Derivative Contracts Held for Trading Purposes and Contracts Involved in Energy Trading and Risk Management Activities" (EITF Issue 02-3), which
prohibited the recognition of trade-date gains for such derivative transactions when determining the fair value of instruments not traded in an active market.

On Nov. 14, 2007, the FASB reaffirmed its position that companies will be required to implement the standard for financial assets and liabilities, as well as for any other assets and liabilities that are carried at
fair value on a recurring basis in financial statements. The FASB did, however, provide a one year deferral for the implementation of FAS 157 for other non-financial assets and liabilities. Effective Jan. 1, 2008, the company adopted FAS 157 for
financial assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis.

FAS 157 is applied prospectively as of the first
interim period for the fiscal year in which it is initially adopted, except for limited retrospective adoption for the following three items:



| |  |  | The valuation of financial instruments using blockage factors;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Financial instruments that were measured at fair value using the transaction price (as indicated in EITF Issue 02-3); and,
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The valuation of hybrid financial instruments that were measured at fair value using the transaction price (as indicated in FAS 155).
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The impact of adoption in these areas would be applied as a cumulative-effect adjustment to opening retained earnings, measured as the difference
between the carrying amounts and the fair values of relevant assets and liabilities at the date of adoption. Tampa Electric Company does not have any of the three aforementioned items, and therefore no transition adjustment was recorded.

Fair Value Hierarchy

FAS 157 specifies a
hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. In accordance with FAS 157, these two types of inputs have created the following fair value hierarchy:



| |  |  | Level 1 Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in
which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, listed equities and
U.S. government treasury securities.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 2  Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable
as of the reporting date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward
prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace
throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Instruments in this category include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as
OTC forwards, options and repurchase agreements.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3  Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally not observable in the marketplace. These inputs may be used with
internally developed methodologies that result in managements best estimate of fair value. Level 3 instruments include those that may be more structured or otherwise tailored to customers needs. At each balance sheet date, the company
performs an analysis of all instruments subject to FAS 157 and includes in Level 3 all of those whose fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available.

Determination of Fair Value

The company measures
fair value using the procedures set forth below for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value that were previously carried at fair value pursuant to other accounting guidelines.

When available, the company uses quoted market prices on assets and liabilities traded on an exchange to determine fair value and classifies such items
as Level 1. In some cases where a market exchange price is available, but the assets and liabilities are traded in a secondary market, the company makes use of acceptable practical expedients to calculate fair value, and classifies such items as
Level 2.

If observable transactions and other market data are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that
use, when available, current market-based or independently-sourced market parameters such as interest rates, currency rates or option volatilities. Items valued using internally generated models are classified according to the lowest level input or
value driver that is most significant to the valuation. Thus, an item may be classified in Level 3 even though there may be significant inputs that are readily observable.

Valuation Techniques

FAS 157 describes three main approaches to measuring the fair value of assets
and liabilities:

1) Market Approach - The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions
involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). The market approach includes the use of matrix pricing.

2) Income
Approach - The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present amount (discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations
about those future amounts.

3) Cost Approach -The cost approach is based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the
service capacity of an asset (often referred to as current replacement cost). The cost approach assumes that the fair value would not exceed what it would cost a market participant to acquire or construct a substitute asset of comparable utility,
adjusted for obsolescence.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the company's financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair
value on a recurring basis as of Mar. 31, 2008. As required by FAS 157, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The company's assessment
of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. For all assets and liabilities
presented below the market approach was used in determining fair value.

Natural gas and interest rate swaps are over-the-counter swap instruments. The primary pricing
inputs in determining the fair value of natural gas swaps are the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) quoted closing prices of exchange-traded instruments. These prices are applied to the notional amounts of active positions to determine the
reported fair value.

The primary pricing inputs in determining the fair value of interest rate swaps are LIBOR swap rates as reported by
Bloomberg. For each instrument, the projected forward swap rate is used to determine the stream of cash flows over the tenor of the contract. The cash flows are then discounted using a spot discount rate to determine the fair value.

Operating Results

Three Months Ended Mar. 31, 2008:

First quarter net income and net income from continuing operations
was $30.8 million or $0.15 per share, compared to $72.8 million, or $0.35 per share, in the first quarter of 2007.

In 2008, first quarter
net income included no benefits from the operations of TECO Transport or from the production of synthetic fuel, compared to $6.4 million and $30.7 million, respectively in the 2007 period. First quarter 2008 net income also included a $0.6 million
after-tax charge for adjustments to previously estimated costs associated with the sale of TECO Transport, compared to $1.8 million of after-tax charges related to the sale of TECO Transport in 2007.

Tampa Electric Company  Electric division (Tampa Electric)

Net income for the first quarter was $15.9 million, compared with $21.8 million for the same period in 2007. Results for the quarter reflect 0.6% average customer growth and lower retail energy sales. Sales to other
utilities were essentially unchanged from 2007. First quarter net income included $1.3 million of Allowance for Funds Used During Construction  Equity (which represents allowed equity cost capitalized to construction costs) related to the
construction of nitrogen oxide (NOx) pollution control equipment, compared to $1.7 million included in the 2007 period.

Total retail
energy sales decreased 2.1%, driven by lower sales to weather-sensitive residential customers and lower sales to lower-margin phosphate customers due to phosphate production facility outages. Sales to the residential customer segment declined 4.5%
in the first quarter due to mild weather patterns and continued lower per residential customer usage. Total degree days in Tampa Electrics service area were 10% below normal and 11% below the first quarter 2007 period. Base revenues declined
$3.2 million in the quarter due to the mild weather. Other operating income increased $4.2 million pretax, driven primarily by higher earnings on the new selective catalytic reduction (SCR) equipment, which is recovered through the environmental
cost recovery clause, increased by-product sales, and higher miscellaneous service revenues.

Operations and maintenance expense, excluding
all Florida Public Service Commission (FPSC)-approved cost recovery clauses, increased $4.5 million after tax, as expected, driven primarily by $1.9 million of after-tax expenditures related to planned outage requirements on power generating
equipment. Other factors included $0.4 million of higher after-tax bad debt expense, and higher vehicle fuel costs.

---

Compared to the first quarter of 2007, depreciation expense decreased $0.7 million after tax, reflecting
primarily lower depreciation rates as a result of a depreciation study approved by the FPSC in the third quarter of 2007. Property tax expense decreased $0.3 million after tax compared to the first quarter of 2007, reflecting lower property tax
rates from legislation passed in Florida in 2007, as well as adjustments to property valuations previously agreed to with various taxing authorities. Interest expense increased $1.6 million after tax due to higher levels of long-term debt
outstanding and higher interest rates on tax-exempt auction-rate debt for one month in the quarter. In addition, interest income decreased due to lower under-recovered fuel balances on which interest is accrued.

A summary of Tampa Electrics operating statistics for the three months ended Mar. 31, 2008 and 2007 follows:

Tampa Electric Company  Natural gas division (PGS)

PGS reported net income of $10.0 million for the first quarter,
compared to $11.0 million in the same period in 2007. Quarterly results reflect average customer growth of 0.3% and lower sales to residential customers primarily due to mild winter weather and a continued decline in per residential customer usage.
Sales to commercial and industrial customers declined due to the continued weak housing market, which is negatively impacting housing-related industries such as wallboard producers, and the slower economy in general, which is affecting gas usage by
commercial customers such as restaurants. Gas transported for power generation customers increased over the first quarter of 2007 when volumes were reduced due to mild weather and the use of other fuels for power generation. Non-fuel operations and
maintenance expense decreased primarily due to lower medical claims cost in the quarter partially offset by higher employee-related expenses. Results also reflect higher depreciation expense due to routine plant additions and lower property tax
rates reflecting legislation passed in Florida in 2007.

A summary of PGS regulated operating statistics for the three months ended
Mar. 31, 2008 and 2007 follows:

TECO Coal

TECO Coal achieved first-quarter net income of $7.5 million, compared to $42.4 million in the same period in 2007. Net income in 2008 no longer includes benefits associated with the production of synthetic fuel, which
concluded at the end of 2007 concurrent with the expiration of the federal tax credit on the production of synthetic fuel. In 2008, net income included a $0.6 million after-tax benefit reflecting the final adjustment to the 2007 inflation factor
applied to the tax credit available on the production of synthetic fuel. In 2007, first quarter results included a $1.6 million after-tax benefit for the final 2006 inflation adjustment to the tax credit. In 2007, net income also included $30.7
million of net benefits related to synthetic fuel production.

Total sales were 2.4 million tons in the 2008 first quarter, compared
with 2.1 million tons in the 2007 period, which included 1.3 million tons of synthetic fuel. Sales volumes increased in 2008 in response to the improved market conditions; however, the first quarter sales mix was more heavily weighted to
lower margin steam coal due to the timing of metallurgical coal shipments, which largely offset the positive effects of coal sold in the spot market at higher prices. Average net selling prices in 2008, which exclude transportation allowances, were
comparable to average net selling prices in the first quarter of 2007 due to the timing of contract signings in 2006 and 2007. In 2008, the cash cost of production per ton was 7% higher than in the first quarter of 2007, driven by higher costs for
petroleum related products and explosives.

In 2007, the $30.7 million benefit from the production of synthetic fuel reflected proceeds
from the third party investors after an estimated 14% phase out caused by high oil prices, and a $12.3 million after-tax benefit from adjusting to market the valuation of oil price hedges that were placed to protect the 2007 synthetic fuel benefits
against high oil prices.

TECO Guatemala

TECO Guatemala reported first-quarter net income of $10.5 million in 2008, compared to $10.3 million in the 2007 period. The 2008 results reflect the benefit of an inflation adjustment to the non-fuel rate for energy sales by the San
José Power Station and lower interest expense on the non-recourse financing, higher interest income on higher offshore cash balances, customer growth and higher energy sales at the distribution utility (EEGSA), partially offset by higher
operating expenses, and increased earnings from the DECA II affiliated companies.

TECO Guatemala had previously indicated that it was
evaluating an opportunity to submit a bid in response to a request for proposal for new coal-fired generating capacity in Guatemala. Due to issues that were raised during the bid process that were not resolved, TECO Guatemala elected to not submit a
bid for this project.

Other and Eliminations

The cost for Parent/Other in the first quarter of 2008 was $13.1 million compared to a cost of $19.1 million in the 2007 period. In 2008, net income includes $0.6 million of after-tax adjustment to previously estimated transaction costs
related to the sale of TECO Transport, compared to $1.8 million of after-tax transaction-related costs associated with the sale of TECO Transport in 2007.

Results were driven by after-tax interest expense at parent and TECO Finance that was $6.8 million lower in the 2008 period, due to debt redemption and refinancing actions. This was partially offset by $1.9 million
after-tax of lower interest income due to lower cash balances.

TECO Transport

The sale of TECO Transport closed Dec. 4, 2007. Due to the ongoing contractual relationship for solid fuel waterborne transportation services, TECO Transport was not classified as a discontinued operation and is
included in TECO Energys historical results.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes from continuing operations for the three month periods ended Mar. 31, 2008 and Mar. 31, 2007 was an expense of $13.1 million and $31.8 million, respectively. The provision for
income taxes from continuing operations in the three months ended Mar. 31, 2008 was impacted by the termination of the synthetic fuel operations tax credit program and its related investor income, as well as by the sale of TECO Transport on Dec. 4,
2007. In addition to the income taxes on recurring operations, the 2007 provision for income taxes includes an income tax benefit related to the application of the tonnage tax to qualified vessels.

During the three month periods ended Mar. 31, 2008 and Mar. 31, 2007, the company experienced a number of events that impacted the overall effective tax
rate on continuing operations. These events included permanent reinvestment of foreign income under APB No. 23, depletion, repatriation of foreign source income to the United States and reduction of income tax expense under the new
tonnage tax regime.

parent, and amounts available under the TECO Energy/TECO Finance and Tampa Electric Company credit facilities.

Consolidated other cash and short-term investments includes $7.8 million of cash at the
unregulated operating companies for normal operations and $49.6 million of consolidated cash and short-term investments at TECO Guatemala held offshore due to the tax deferral strategy associated with EEGSA. In addition to consolidated cash, as of
Mar. 31, 2008, unconsolidated affiliates owned by TECO Guatemala, CGESJ (San José) and TCAE (Alborada), had unrestricted cash balances of $9.6 million and restricted cash of $0.8 million, which are not included in the table above. The table
above also excludes consolidated restricted cash of $7.5 million, primarily at TECO Energy parent.

TECO Energy is targeting $160 million
of additional equity contributions to Tampa Electric Company in 2008, above the previously announced plan of $190 million, as the utility enters a period of increased capital spending. In addition, the company expects that it will retire the $100
million of floating rate notes at or near the 2010 maturity date, in lieu of early retirement in 2008.

Covenants in Financing Agreements

In order to utilize their respective bank credit facilities, TECO Energy/TECO Finance and Tampa Electric Company must meet certain
financial tests as defined in the applicable agreements. In addition, TECO Energy, Tampa Electric Company and other operating companies have certain restrictive covenants in specific agreements and debt instruments. TECO Energy, Tampa Electric
Company and the other operating companies are in compliance with all applicable financial covenants. The table that follows lists the covenants and the performance relative to them at Mar. 31, 2008. Reference is made to the specific agreements and
instruments for more details.

Credit Ratings of Senior Unsecured Debt at Mar. 31, 2008



|                         |  |                   |  |         |  |      
|------------------------ |  | ----------------- |  | ------- |  | -----
|                         |  | Standard & Poors |  | Moodys |  | Fitch
|Tampa Electric Company   |  | BBB-              |  | Baa2    |  | BBB+ 
|TECO Energy/TECO Finance |  | BB+               |  | Baa3    |  | BBB- 

In March 2008, Fitch upgraded the ratings on TECO Energy and TECO Finance senior unsecured debt to
investment grade at BBB-. In addition, Fitch removed TECO Energy, TECO Finance and Tampa Electric Company from ratings watch positive and placed stable outlooks on the ratings.

Fitchs ratings upgrade of TECO Energy and TECO Finance reflects the leverage reduction resulting from the use of TECO Transport sale proceeds to
reduce debt and from earlier debt reduction efforts. Fitch also cited TECO Energys reduced business risk resulting from sales of non-regulated operations and focus on utility operations as factors considered in the upgrade.

Standard & Poors, Moodys and Fitch describe credit ratings in the BBB or Baa category as representing adequate capacity for payment
of financial obligations. The lowest investment grade credit ratings for Standard & Poors is BBB-, for Moodys is Baa3 and for Fitch is BBB-; thus all three credit rating agencies assign Tampa Electric Companys senior
unsecured debt investment grade ratings. The ratings assigned to senior unsecured debt of TECO Energy and TECO Finance by Moodys and Fitch are investment grade and by Standard & Poors are below investment grade.

A credit rating agency rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the
assigning rating agency. Any future downgrades in credit ratings may affect our ability to borrow and may increase financing costs, which may decrease earnings.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing

Unconsolidated affiliates have project debt balances as follows at Mar. 31, 2008. TECO Energy
has no debt payment obligations with respect to these financings. Although the company is not directly obligated on the debt, the equity interest in those unconsolidated affiliates and our commitments with respect to those projects are at risk if
those projects are not operated successfully.

Outlook

TECO Energy is maintaining its outlook for 2008 earnings per share from continuing operations within a range of $0.95 and $1.10, and expects its results for the year to be driven by essentially the same factors as
outlined in February.

First quarter customer growth at the utilities reflects a more significant slowdown in the Tampa area and Florida
economies than previously forecast. Due to the high levels of builder inventory homes and other vacancies, Tampa Electric expects full-year customer growth to be only slightly above the first quarter levels. This is a significant reduction from
prior Tampa Electric customer growth projections for 2008, and it reflects the impact of the economic and housing market slowdowns in Florida. Assuming the housing market strengthens and the housing inventory is absorbed, Tampa Electric expects the
rate of customer growth to increase in 2009, and for customer growth to return to about the 2% level in 2010. The company anticipates that weather-normalized energy sales will grow at levels consistent with customer growth. In response to the slower
near-term customer growth, Tampa Electric continues to evaluate the build versus buy option and final timing of generating capacity additions beyond 2010. PGS expects customer growth at about the same level as Tampa Electric, driven by the weak
Florida housing market, which is down from previous PGS customer growth projections. PGS expects per residential customer usage to continue to decline due to increased appliance efficiency, price elasticity and more energy efficient housing
construction.

TECO Coal now expects to increase 2008 sales to 10.5 million tons in response to improved market conditions. Higher
selling prices for the additional sales are expected to offset the effects of higher prices now expected to be paid for diesel fuel and petroleum related products in 2008, resulting in average after-tax margins of about $4 per ton for the year.

Fair Value Measurements

Effective
Jan. 1, 2008, the company adopted SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS 157). FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about
financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value. The majority of the companys financial assets and liabilities are in the form of natural gas and interest rate derivatives classified as cash flow hedges. The implementation of FAS 157
did not have a material impact on our results of operations, liquidity or capital.

All natural gas derivatives were entered into by the
regulated utilities to manage the impact of natural gas prices on



43



---

customers. As a result of applying the provisions of FAS 71, the changes in value of natural gas derivatives of Tampa Electric and PGS are recorded as
regulatory assets or liabilities to reflect the impact of the risks of hedging activities in the fuel recovery clause. Because the amounts are deferred and ultimately collected through the fuel clause, the unrealized gains and losses associated with
the valuation of these assets and liabilities do not impact our results of operations.

Interest rate derivatives at the regulated
utilities were entered into as a cash flow hedge to lock in a fixed rate on a debt issuance anticipated to occur in the second quarter of 2008. Changes in the value of these instruments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and will
be amortized to income over the life of the related debt. The amounts amortized are not expected to be material to the results of operations.

Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our critical accounting policies relate to deferred income taxes, employee postretirement benefits,
long-lived assets and regulatory accounting. For further discussion of our critical accounting policies, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2007.



|Item 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of our borrowing activities. We may
enter into futures, swaps and option contracts, in accordance with the approved risk management policies and procedures, to moderate this exposure to interest rate changes and achieve a desired level of fixed and variable rate debt.

In March 2008, Tampa Electric Company converted $191.75 million aggregate principal amount of tax-exempt bonds originally issued for its benefit in
auction rate mode and remarketed them in long-term interest rate modes. In addition, Tampa Electric purchased in lieu of redemption $95.0 million aggregate value of tax exempt bonds previously in auction rate mode and held such bonds at
March 31, 2008, pending a determination of their disposition. The result of these transactions lowered our exposure to variable interest rate risk.

Credit Risk

We are exposed to credit risk as a result of our purchases and sales of energy commodities and related hedging
activities. As of Mar. 31, 2008, there was no significant change in our exposure to credit risk since Dec. 31, 2007.

Commodity Risk

We face varying degrees of exposure to commodity risksincluding coal, natural gas, fuel oil and other energy commodity prices.
Any changes in prices could affect the prices these businesses charge, their operating costs and the competitive position of their products and services and do affect the net fair value of derivatives. We assess and monitor risk using a variety of
measurement tools based on the degree of exposure of each operating company to commodity risk. Our most significant commodity risk exposure for the remainder of 2008 is the potential effect of high natural gas prices on our cash flows. Prudently
incurred costs for natural gas are recoverable through FPSC-approved cost recovery clauses, and therefore do not affect our earnings. However, higher than expected prices for natural gas can affect the timing of recovery and thus impact cash flows.

The following tables summarize the changes in and the fair value balances of derivative assets (liabilities) for the three months ended
Mar. 31, 2008:
