                             WEST PENN FUNDING LLC

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

General

     West Penn Funding LLC (the Company) is a Delaware limited liability
company, whose sole member is West Penn Funding Corporation. West Penn Funding
Corporation is a wholly owned subsidiary of West Penn. The Company was
organized in May 1999, for the sole purpose of purchasing and owning ITP,
issuing transition bonds (the Bonds), pledging its interest in ITP and other
collateral to the Trustee under an Indenture between the Company and the
Trustee to collateralize the Bonds, and performing activities that are
necessary to accomplish these purposes. The Company's organizational documents
require it to operate in a manner so that its assets would not be consolidated
with the bankruptcy estate of West Penn or West Penn Funding Corporation in
the event that West Penn or West Penn Funding Corporation becomes subject to a
bankruptcy proceeding.

     The only material business conducted by the Company has been the
acquisition of ITP from West Penn Funding Corporation and the issuance in
November 1999 of $600 million of Bonds, Series 1999-A, Class A-1 through Class
A-4. The specific interest rate and maturity of each class of bonds is
specified in Note C of the Notes to Financial Statements. Each series of Bonds
have been registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of the Depository
Trust Company. All of the Bonds were sold to a syndicate of underwriters
managed by Morgan Stanley Dean Witter.

     The Company used the proceeds of the issuance of the Bonds to pay
expenses of issuance and to purchase the ITP from West Penn
Funding Corporation. West Penn arranged for the formation of West Penn Funding
Corporation as a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity for the purpose of
holding ITP before the issuance of the first series of the Bonds.

     The Company has no employees. West Penn, as Servicer under the Servicing
Agreement, is required to manage, service, administer and make collections of
the ITP. The Servicing Agreement also requires West Penn, as Servicer, to file
adjustment requests on each calculation date, and the Competition Act and the
Qualified Rate Order require the PUC to act upon these requests within
specified time periods. These adjustment requests are based on actual ITC
collections and updated assumptions by the Servicer as to projected future
usage of electricity by customers, expected delinquencies and write-offs, and
future payments and expenses relating to the ITP and the Bonds. The Servicer
has not yet filed any such adjustment request.

Intangible Transition Property

     The ITP represents the irrevocable right of West Penn, or its successor
or assignee, to collect a non-bypassable ITC from customers pursuant to the
Qualified Rate Order in accordance with the Competition Act. The Qualified
Rate Order authorized West Penn to securitize up to $670 million of its
stranded costs. West Penn, or any assignee of West Penn to whom ITP is sold,
may issue and sell, in reliance on the Qualified Rate Order, one or more
series of the Bonds, each series in one or more classes, secured by ITP. The
Company acquired the ITP and issued the Bonds in November 1999. The principal
amount of the Bonds, interest, fees, and


                                       4

funding of the Overcollateralization Subaccount will be recovered through ITC
payable by retail consumers of electricity within West Penn's service
territory who receive electric delivery service from West Penn.

     (a) Sales of Unregistered Securities. There is no established public
trading market for the Company's equity securities. West Penn Funding
Corporation, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of West Penn, owns all of the

transferred $3 million to the Company as an initial capital contribution. Such
transaction was exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, pursuant to Section 4(2). The Company has made no other sales of
unregistered securities.

     (b) Restriction on Dividends. The Company may not make any payments,
distributions or dividends to any member of the Company with respect to its
membership interest in the Company except in accordance with the Indenture.

     (c) Bondholders. As of December 31, 1999 the sole holder of the Bonds was
Cede & Co., as nominee of the Depository Trust Company. The Bonds are not
registered on any national securities exchange and are not traded on any
established trading market.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
         CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The following analysis of the results of operations and financial
condition of the Company is in an abbreviated format pursuant to Instruction I
of Form 10-K. Such analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements attached hereto.

     As discussed above under Item 1 "Business - General," the Company is a
Delaware limited liability company, whose sole member is West Penn Funding
Corporation, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of West Penn. As discussed in
Note C to Financial Statements, on November 16, 1999, the Company issued the
Bonds and transferred the proceeds in exchange for all rights, title and
interest in the ITP from West Penn Funding Corporation. As the Company was
formed for limited purposes, as discussed under Item 1 "Business - General,"
the income statement effects were limited primarily to revenue from
collections of ITC by the Servicer, interest income earned on the Capital
Subaccount maintained by the Trustee and on temporary investments, interest
expense on the Bonds, amortization of the ITP, servicing fees and other
administrative expenses.

     From the period of inception, May 26, 1999, to December 31, 1999, the
income generated from the ITP was approximately $7,502,000. The Company also
earned approximately $6,000 in interest from the Capital Subaccount maintained
by the Trustee and temporary investments. Interest expense of approximately
$5,070,000 consists of interest on the Bonds, amortization of debt issuance
expenses and the discount on the Bonds. The Company also incurred servicing
fees of approximately $104,000 and other administrative fees of $1,000.

     The principal amount of the Bonds, interest, fees, and funding of the
Overcollateralization Subaccount will be recovered through ITC payable by
retail consumers of electricity within West Penn's service territory who
receive electric delivery service from West Penn. As part of West Penn's
responsibility as Servicer under the Servicing Agreement, as discussed in Item
1 "Business - General," West Penn remitted to the Trustee $7,438,000 of ITC
collections for the period from November 16, 1999 to December 31, 1999. The
first quarterly payment of Bond principal, interest and all related expenses
will be made by the Trustee on March 27, 2000.

     The Company currently anticipates that there will be sufficient revenue
to make interest payments due on the first quarterly payment date, March 27,
2000. However, due to the lag between amounts of ITC billed by West Penn to
its customers and amounts collected from those customers during the initial
period for the implementation of the ITC, after application of the amounts in
the Capital Subaccount, the Company anticipates a shortfall of approximately
$3,000,000 in the scheduled principal payment on that date (which shortfall
does not constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture.)

     Under the Competition Act and the Qualified Rate Order, withdrawals from
the Capital Subaccount must be replenished by increases in the ITC. Under the
Servicing Agreement, West Penn, as Servicer, intends to file a request for an
adjustment to the ITC with the PUC on October 1, 2000 to produce additional
revenues sufficient to replenish the Capital Subaccount prior to the December
2001 quarterly payment date. The adjustment will go into effect on January 1,
2001.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(These notes are an integral part of the financial statements.)

NOTE A: NATURE OF OPERATIONS

West Penn Funding LLC (the Company), a limited liability company established
under the laws of the State of Delaware, was formed on May 26, 1999. West Penn
Funding Corporation is the sole member of the Company. West Penn Funding
Corporation is a wholly owned subsidiary of West Penn Power Company (West
Penn), an operating electric utility. West Penn is a wholly owned subsidiary
of Allegheny Energy, Inc., a public utility holding company.

The Company was organized for the sole purpose of purchasing and owning
Intangible Transition Property (ITP), issuing Transition Bonds (Bonds),
pledging its interest in ITP and other collateral to the bond trustee, and
performing activities that are necessary, suitable or convenient to accomplish
these purposes. ITP represents the irrevocable right of West Penn, or its
successor or assignee, to collect a non-bypassable Intangible Transition
Charge (ITC) from customers pursuant to a Qualified Rate Order (PUC Order)
issued on November 19, 1998, and supplemented by order dated August 12, 1999,
by the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC) in accordance with the
Pennsylvania Electricity Generation Customer Choice Order and Competition Act
(applicable law) enacted in Pennsylvania in December 1996. The PUC Order
authorizes the ITC to be sufficient to recover the principal amount of Bonds
issued by the Company, plus an amount sufficient to provide for any credit
enhancement, to fund any reserves and to pay interest, redemption premiums,
servicing fees and other expenses relating to the Bonds.

West Penn transferred the ITP to West Penn Funding Corporation which sold the
ITP to West Penn Funding LLC.

The Company issued $600.0 million of Bonds in four different classes on
November 16, 1999 (see Note C for additional information). The proceeds were
used to fund the purchase of ITP. The ITP and restricted funds were used to
collateralize the Bonds. Under applicable law, the Bonds are recourse to the
Company and are collateralized on a pro rata basis by the ITP and the equity
and assets of the Company. The source of repayment is the ITC authorized
pursuant to the PUC Order, which charges are collected from West Penn
customers by West Penn, as servicer.

ITC collections are deposited by West Penn with the Company and used to pay
the expenses of the Company, to pay debt service on the Bonds and to fund
credit enhancement for the Bonds. The Company also pledged the capital
contributed by West Penn Funding Corporation to collateralize the debt service
requirements of the Bonds. The Bonds are non-recourse to West Penn Funding
Corporation, West Penn, and Allegheny Energy, Inc.

NOTE B:  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates that affect the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and disclosures
of contingencies during the reporting period.

Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Cash and Temporary Cash Investments

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, temporary cash investments with
original maturities of three months or less, generally in the form of
commercial paper, certificates of deposit, and repurchase agreements, are
considered to be the equivalent of cash.

Restricted Funds

Under the Indenture, the Company deposited an amount equal to 0.5% of the
initial principal amount of the Bonds into the "Capital Subaccount" with the
Bond Trustee (Bankers Trust Company, a New York banking corporation). West
Penn Funding Corporation contributed this amount to the Company. This account
is the last account drawn in the event that "General Subaccount" collections
are insufficient to make required allocations. If the "Capital Subaccount" is
used, it will be replenished from the ITC remittances to its original level
through the periodic reconciliation process. Accordingly, the "Capital
Subaccount" is classified as Restricted Funds on the Balance Sheet.

Revenue

The Company records intangible transition charges in the period ITC is billed
to customers by West Penn.

Amortization of Intangible Transition Property

The ITP is being amortized over the life of the Bonds, based on ITC revenues,
interest accruals and other fees.

Amortization of Debt Issuance Costs and Discount on Debt

The costs associated with the issuance of the Bonds have been capitalized and
are being amortized in interest expense over the life of the Bonds utilizing
the effective interest method.

Income Taxes

The Company joins with its Parents and affiliates in filing a consolidated
federal income tax return. The consolidated tax liability is allocated among
the participants generally in proportion to the taxable income of each
participant, except that no subsidiary pays tax in excess of its separate
return tax liability. For the Company, the difference between the effective
tax rate and the statutory tax rate of 35% is not significant.

Comprehensive Income

SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," effective for 1998,
establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income and its components
(revenues, expenses, gains, and losses) in the financial statements. The
Company does not have any elements of other comprehensive income to report in
accordance with SFAS No. 130.


NOTE C:  LONG-TERM DEBT

In November 1999, the Company issued $600.0 million of Series 1999-A Bonds.
The Bonds consist of four classes. The Company used the proceeds from the
Bonds to purchase ITP from West Penn Funding Corporation. The ITP and other
assets of the Company collateralize the Bonds.

                       ========

The source of repayment is ITC. West Penn is collecting this non-bypassable
charge from its retail customers of electricity. The Servicer deposits
collections of the ITC monthly into a "General Subaccount" maintained by the
Trustee under the Indenture. Each quarter, such monies are used to make
principal and interest payments on the Bonds and pay fees, costs and charges
specified in the Indenture. The Trustee is required to make the first payment
on March 27, 2000. The Indenture also includes a "Reserve Subaccount" that is
maintained for the purpose of retaining any excess amount of ITC collections
and investment earnings not released to the Company. The Indenture also
provides for an "Overcollateralization Subaccount." The overcollateralization
for these securities will be funded over the life of the Series 1999-A Bonds
and is expected to reach 0.5% of the initial principal balance of this series
of transition bonds. Additionally, an amount equal to 0.5% of the initial
principal amount of the Bonds was deposited into the "Capital Subaccount"
under the Indenture on the date of issuance. If amounts available in the
"General Subaccount", "Reserve Subaccount", and the "Overcollateralization
Subaccount" are not sufficient on any payment date to make scheduled payments
specified in the Indenture, the Trustee will draw on amounts in the "Capital
Subaccount." On payment in full of the Bonds, any remaining amounts that
collateralize the Bonds will be released to the Company.


NOTE D:  SIGNIFICANT AGREEMENTS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Under the Servicing Agreement, West Penn is required to manage and administer
the ITP of the Company and to collect the ITC on behalf of the Company. The
Company will pay a maximum annual service fee of $1.25 million to West Penn.
For the period ended December 31, 1999, the Company recorded servicing fees of
$0.10 million.

Debt issuance costs of approximately $4.58 million were incurred and recorded
by the Company during 1999, including $0.53 million incurred by West Penn to
be reimbursed by the Company. The Company will reimburse West Penn for any
additional debt issuance costs it incurs for the transition bonds.

At December 31, 1999, the Balance Sheet includes a receivable from West Penn
of approximately $7.5 million for ITC collections. The Balance Sheet also
includes a payable to West Penn of approximately $0.63 million for servicing
fees and debt issuance costs.
