    arising from terrorist attacks in the U.S., the situation in Iraq and any
    consequential hostilities or other hostilities; and
- the commitments and liabilities of PPL and its subsidiaries.

Any such forward-looking statements should be considered in light of such important
  factors and in conjunction with other documents of PPL, PPL Energy Supply and
  PPL Electric on file with the SEC.

New factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
  described in forward-looking statements emerge from time to time, and it is
  not possible for PPL, PPL Energy Supply or PPL Electric to predict all of such
  factors, or the extent to which any such factor or combination of factors may
  cause actual results to differ from those contained in any forward-looking statement.
  Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement
  is made, and PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric undertake no obligations
  to update the information contained in such statement to reflect subsequent
  developments or information.

Combined Notes to Condensed
  Consolidated Financial Statements

Terms and abbreviations appearing in Combined Notes to Condensed Consolidated
  Financial Statements are explained in the glossary. Dollars are in millions,
  except per share data, unless otherwise noted.

1. Interim Financial Statements
    (PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
      have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
      in the U.S. for interim financial information and with the instructions
      to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and, therefore, do not include
      all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally
      accepted in the U.S. for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
      management, all adjustments (including normal, recurring accruals) considered
      necessary for a fair presentation in accordance with accounting principles
      generally accepted in the U.S. are reflected in the condensed consolidated
      financial statements. The Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2003, is derived
      from each Registrant's 2003 audited Balance Sheet. The financial statements
      and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
      and notes contained in each Registrant's Annual Report to the SEC on Form
      10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. The results of operations for
      the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, are not necessarily indicative
      of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2004,
      or other future periods, because results for interim periods can be disproportionately
      influenced by various factors and developments and seasonal variations.
    Certain amounts in the June 30, 2003, and December 31, 2003, financial
      statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation in the
      June 30, 2004, financial statements.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
    The following accounting policy disclosures represent updates to the "Summary
      of Significant Accounting Policies" Note in each Registrant's Annual Report
      to the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.
    Stock-Based Compensation(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    Stock-based compensation expense, including awards granted to employees
      and an allocation of costs of awards granted to employees of PPL Services,
      was insignificant to net income and EPS under both the intrinsic value and
      fair value methods of accounting for stock-based compensation for the three
      and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. Also, there would not have
      been a material impact on reported net income and EPS had the fair value
      method been used to account for all outstanding stock-based compensation
      awards in all periods.
    New Accounting Standards(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    See Note 16 for a discussion of new accounting standards adopted in 2004
      or pending adoption.

4. Earnings Per Share
    (PPL)
    Basic EPS is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares
      outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is calculated using weighted
      average shares outstanding that are increased for additional shares that
      would be outstanding if potentially dilutive securities were converted to
      common stock. Potentially dilutive securities consist of:
    
        stock options, restricted stock and restricted
            stock units granted under the incentive compensation plans;
        stock units representing common stock
            granted under the directors compensation programs;
        common stock purchase contracts that
            were a component of the PEPS Units and PEPS Units, Series B; and
        convertible senior notes.The basic and diluted EPS calculations, and the reconciliation of the shares
      (in thousands) used in the calculations, are shown below:

        2.09In May 2001, PPL and PPL Capital Funding Trust I issued 23 million PEPS
      Units that contained a purchase contract component for PPL's common stock.
      The purchase contracts were only dilutive if the average price of PPL's
      common stock exceeded a threshold appreciation price, which was adjusted
      for cash distributions on PPL common stock. The threshold appreciation price
      was initially set at $65.03 and was adjusted to $63.38 as of April 1, 2004,
      based on dividends paid on PPL's common stock since issuance. Since the
      average price did not exceed the threshold appreciation price, the purchase
      contracts were excluded from the diluted EPS calculations.
    In January 2004, PPL completed an exchange offer resulting in the exchange
      of approximately four million PEPS Units for PEPS Units, Series B. The primary
      difference in the units related to the debt component. The purchase contract
      components of both units, which were potentially dilutive, were identical.
      The threshold appreciation price for the purchase contract component of
      the PEPS Units, Series B was adjusted in the same manner as that of the
      PEPS Units and was $63.38 as a result of the adjustment as of April 1, 2004.
      Since the average price did not exceed the threshold appreciation price,
      the purchase contracts were excluded from the diluted EPS calculations.
      See Note 6 for a more detailed discussion of the exchange offer.
    In May 2003, PPL Energy Supply issued $400 million of 2.625% Convertible
      Senior Notes due 2023. The notes are guaranteed by PPL and can be converted
      into shares of PPL common stock if:
    
        during any fiscal quarter starting after
            June 30, 2003, the market price of PPL's common stock trades at or
            above $59.67 per share over a certain period during the preceding
            fiscal quarter;
        PPL calls the debt for redemption;
        the holder exercises its right to put
            the debt on any five-year anniversary of the offering;
        the long-term credit rating assigned
            to the notes by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. and Standard &
            Poor's Ratings Services falls below Ba2 and BB or the notes are not
            rated; or
        certain specified corporate transactions
            occur, e.g., change in control and certain distributions to the holders
            of PPL common stock.The initial conversion rate is 20.1106 shares per $1,000 principal amount
      of notes. It will be adjusted if certain specified distributions, whether
      in the form of cash, stock, other equity interests, evidence of indebtedness
      or assets, are made to holders of PPL common stock. Additionally, the conversion
      rate can be increased by PPL if its Board of Directors has made a determination
      that to do so would be in the best interests of either PPL or holders of
      PPL common stock.
    Depending upon which of the conversion events identified above occurs,
      the Convertible Senior Notes can be settled in cash or shares. As none of
      these events has occurred, the Convertible Senior Notes were excluded from
      the diluted EPS calculations.
    The following number of stock options to purchase PPL common shares were
      excluded in the periods' computations of diluted EPS because the effect
      would have been antidilutive.

6. Credit Arrangements and Financing Activities
    Credit Arrangements
    (PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    In February 2004, PPL Energy Supply reduced the size of its $500 million
      three-year credit facility expiring in June 2004 to $200 million. In June
      2004, PPL Energy Supply replaced this facility and its $300 million three-year
      facility expiring in June 2005 with an $800 million five-year facility expiring
      in June 2009. Also in June 2004, PPL Electric replaced its $200 million
      364-day facility expiring in June 2004 with a $200 million five-year facility
      expiring in June 2009. At June 30, 2004, no cash borrowings were outstanding
      under any credit facilities of PPL Electric or PPL Energy Supply. Both PPL
      Electric and PPL Energy Supply have the ability to cause the lenders under
      their respective facilities to issue letters of credit. At June 30,
      2004, PPL Electric had $42 million of letters of credit outstanding under
      its $100 million three-year facility expiring in June 2006, and PPL Energy
      Supply had $442 million of letters of credit outstanding under its $800
      million five-year facility expiring in June 2009 and $84 million of letters
      of credit outstanding under its $300 million three-year facility expiring
      in June 2006. The letters of credit outstanding under PPL Energy Supply's
      $800 million five-year facility expiring in June 2009 include a $300 million
      letter of credit provided to PPL Electric to satisfy the performance assurance
      provisions under one of the PLR contracts. See Note 9 for additional information.
    (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    At June 30, 2004, WPD (South West) had no outstanding borrowings under
      its £100 million 364-day credit facility expiring in October 2004
      or under its £150 million five-year credit facility expiring in October
      2008.
    (PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    The subsidiaries of PPL are separate legal entities. PPL's subsidiaries
      are not liable for the debts of PPL. Accordingly, creditors of PPL may not
      satisfy their debts from the assets of the subsidiaries absent a specific
      contractual undertaking by a subsidiary to pay PPL's creditors or as required
      by applicable law or regulation. Similarly, absent a specific contractual
      undertaking or as required by applicable law or regulation, PPL is not liable
      for the debts of its subsidiaries. Accordingly, creditors of PPL's subsidiaries
      may not satisfy their debts from the assets of PPL absent a specific contractual
      undertaking by PPL to pay the creditors of its subsidiaries or as required
      by applicable law or regulation.
    Similarly, the subsidiaries of PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric are separate
      legal entities. These subsidiaries are not liable for the debts of PPL Energy
      Supply and PPL Electric. Accordingly, creditors of PPL Energy Supply and
      PPL Electric may not satisfy their debts from the assets of their subsidiaries
      absent a specific contractual undertaking by a subsidiary to pay the creditors
      or as required by applicable law or regulation. In addition, absent a specific
      contractual undertaking or as required by applicable law or regulation,
      PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric are not liable for the debts of their
      subsidiaries. Accordingly, creditors of these subsidiaries may not satisfy
      their debts from the assets of PPL Energy Supply or PPL Electric absent
      a specific contractual undertaking by that parent to pay the creditors of
      its subsidiaries or as required by applicable law or regulation.
    Financing Activities
    PEPS Units Transactions
    (PPL)
    In November 2003, PPL initiated an offer to exchange up to $573 million
      of its outstanding PEPS Units for up to $573 million of its PEPS Units,
      Series B and a cash payment by PPL of $0.375 for each validly tendered and
      accepted outstanding PEPS Unit. The exchange offer, which closed in January
      2004, resulted in $99 million, or 17.28%, of the outstanding PEPS Units,
      being exchanged.
    In February 2004, pursuant to the terms of the PEPS Units, PPL remarketed
      $257 million of the PPL Capital Funding Trust I trust preferred securities
      that were a component of the PEPS Units. The trust preferred securities
      were remarketed at a price of 107.284% of their aggregate stated liquidation
      amount, resulting in a yield to maturity of 3.912% based on the reset distribution
      rate of 7.29% per annum. Under the terms of the PEPS Units, holders were
      entitled to surrender their trust preferred securities for remarketing in
      order to settle the purchase contract component of the PEPS Units in May
      2004. Holders of an aggregate of $218 million of the trust preferred securities
      elected not to participate in the remarketing. Those holders retained their
      trust preferred securities at a distribution rate of 7.29% per annum.
    Additionally, in February 2004, PPL Capital Funding issued $201 million
      of senior unsecured notes guaranteed by PPL in exchange for $185 million
      of the trust preferred securities of PPL Capital Funding Trust I and a payment
      of $400,000 in cash. The senior notes bear interest at a rate of 4.33% per
      year that is payable semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 of each year,
      from September 1, 2004, through the maturity date of March 1, 2009. The
      senior notes are not redeemable by PPL or PPL Capital Funding, and the holders
      will not be entitled to require PPL or PPL Capital Funding to repurchase
      the senior notes before maturity. The senior notes were issued in an SEC
      Rule 144A private offering to qualified institutional buyers and were exchanged
      in full for senior notes registered with the SEC pursuant to an exchange
      offer completed by PPL and PPL Capital Funding in July 2004. The registered
      senior notes issued pursuant to the exchange offer have the same terms as
      the senior notes issued in the 144A private offering.
    The January and February 2004 exchanges resulted in the cancellation of
      an aggregate of $284 million of the trust preferred securities and an aggregate
      of $9 million of PPL Capital Funding Trust I's common securities held by
      PPL Capital Funding, as well as a corresponding cancellation of the $293
      million of PPL Capital Funding 7.29% subordinated notes due 2006 underlying
      these trust securities. The cancellation of the underlying PPL Capital Funding
      subordinate notes together with the issuance of the new PPL Capital Funding
      debt, as a result of the exchanges, resulted in a net decrease of $9 million
      of long-term debt, including "Long-term Debt with Affiliate Trusts," as
      reflected in the Balance Sheet. Following these exchanges, there remained
      outstanding $290 million of trust preferred securities and $9 million of
      trust common securities, as well as $299 million of underlying PPL Capital
      Funding 7.29% subordinated notes due 2006.
    In March 2004, PPL liquidated PPL Capital Funding Trust I, resulting in
      the cancellation of all of the outstanding trust preferred securities and
      the trust common securities. In exchange for the cancellation of the trust
      securities, PPL Capital Funding Trust I caused $290 million of underlying
      PPL Capital Funding 7.29% subordinated notes due 2006 to be distributed
      to the holders of the trust preferred securities and $9 million of PPL Capital
      Funding 7.29% subordinated notes due 2006, held by the trust, to be cancelled.
      The impact to PPL Capital Funding as a result of these cancellations was
      an additional net decrease of $9 million of long-term debt, including "Long-term
      Debt with Affiliate Trusts," as reflected in the Balance Sheet.
    In May 2004, pursuant to the terms of the PEPS Units, Series B, PPL remarketed
      approximately $99 million of the PPL Capital Funding notes due 2006 that
      were a component of the PEPS Units, Series B. The notes were remarketed
      at a price of 100.5% of their aggregate principal amount with a floating
      reset interest rate initially equal to 2.31%, which is three-month LIBOR
      plus a spread of 105 basis points, or 1.05%. Interest on the notes resets
      quarterly at three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 105 basis points, and is
      payable quarterly from May 18, 2004, through, but excluding, the maturity
      date of May 18, 2006. Under the terms of the PEPS Units, Series B, holders
      were entitled to surrender their PPL Capital Funding notes for remarketing
      in order to settle the purchase contract component of the PEPS Units, Series
      B in May 2004.
    (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    The purchase contract component of the PEPS Units and the PEPS Units, Series
      B settled in May 2004. Pursuant to the settlement of the purchase contracts,
      PPL issued an aggregate of approximately 11 million shares of its common
      stock and received aggregate proceeds of approximately $575 million. In
      June 2004, a subsidiary of PPL Energy Supply used these proceeds and cash
      on hand to purchase, for approximately $660 million, the Sundance and University
      Park generation assets that it had been leasing, through a synthetic lease
      arrangement, from a trust consolidated by PPL Energy Supply. Under the terms
      of the synthetic lease arrangement, the PPL Energy Supply subsidiary had
      the right at any time to purchase these assets for an amount sufficient
      to pay off the consolidated trust's related financing, including accrued
      and unpaid interest. Repayment of the consolidated trust's debt resulted
      in a loss of approximately $9 million pre-tax, which is reflected in "Interest
      Expense."
    Other Financing Activities
    (PPL)
    In April 2004, PPL Capital Funding repurchased $4 million of its 8-3/8%
      Medium-term Notes due 2007 at a market value of approximately $5 million.
      This repurchase resulted in a loss of approximately $1 million pre-tax,
      which is reflected in "Interest Expense."
    (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    During the six months ended June 30, 2004, a Bolivian subsidiary of PPL
      Global issued $13 million of bonds with interest rates varying from 6.8%
      to 7.4% and serial maturities from December 2005 to December 2008. In addition,
      the PPL Global subsidiary issued bonds denominated in UFVs (inflation-indexed
      bolivianos) totaling 13.5 million bolivianos (approximately $2 million at
      current exchange rates) maturing in December 2007. The proceeds of both
      issuances were used to repay intercompany loans, short-term bank borrowings,
      and $3.1 million of its multicurrency denominated Inter-American Development
      Bank note maturing in November 2009.
    At June 30, 2004, PPL Energy Supply had no commercial paper outstanding.
    During the six months ended June 30, 2004, PPL Energy Supply distributed
      approximately $124 million to its parent company, PPL Energy Funding, and
      received capital contributions of $58 million.
    In May 2004, PPL Energy Supply issued a $495 million note payable to an
      affiliate. The note matures in May 2006 with interest payable monthly in
      arrears at LIBOR plus 1%.
    (PPL and PPL Electric)
    In March 2004, PPL Electric retired approximately $25 million of its outstanding
      First Mortgage Bonds, 6.875% Series due March 2004, at par value. Also in
      March, PPL Electric redeemed approximately $6 million aggregate principal
      amount of its First Mortgage Bonds, 7.30% Series due 2024, at par value,
      through the application of cash deposited with the trustee to release certain
      transmission lines and other equipment from the lien of the 1945 First Mortgage
      Bond Indenture.
    In April 2004, PPL Electric completed an offer to repurchase its outstanding
      First Mortgage Bonds, 6-1/2% Series due 2005. Pursuant to the offer, PPL
      Electric repurchased approximately $41 million of the bonds at a market
      value of $43 million. PPL Electric also repurchased in the open market $45
      million of 5-7/8% Senior Secured Bonds and $14 million of 6-1/4% Senior
      Secured Bonds at market values of $48 million and $16 million, respectively.
      These repurchases resulted in a loss of approximately $7 million pre-tax,
      which is reflected in other noncurrent assets as an unamortized loss on
      reacquired debt. The purpose of the repurchases was to reduce future interest
      expense.
    In August 2004, PPL Electric began participating in an asset-backed commercial
      paper (ABCP) program through which PPL Electric obtains financing by selling
      and contributing to a special purpose, wholly-owned subsidiary its accounts
      receivable, with certain exceptions, on an ongoing basis. PPL Electric's
      sale of the accounts receivable is an absolute transfer of the receivables
      and PPL Electric does not retain an interest in the receivables. The subsidiary,
      in turn, has pledged the receivables to secure loans to be made to it from
      time to time by a commercial paper conduit sponsored by a financial institution.
      PPL Electric will continue to perform certain record-keeping and cash collection
      functions with respect to the receivables in return for a servicing fee
      from the subsidiary. The subsidiary's borrowing limit under this program
      is $150 million. PPL Electric expects to use the proceeds from the ABCP
      program for general corporate purposes and to cash collateralize letters
      of credit. The subsidiary is a separate legal entity and its assets are
      not available for PPL Electric's creditors. However, for financial reporting
      purposes, the subsidiary's financial results will be consolidated in PPL
      Electric's financial statements.
    During the six months ended June 30, 2004, PPL Transition Bond Company
      made principal payments on transition bonds totaling $140 million.
    At June 30, 2004, PPL Electric had $65 million of commercial paper outstanding.
    Dividends(PPL)
    In February 2004, PPL announced an increase to its quarterly common stock
      dividend, effective April 1, 2004, from 38.5 cents per share to 41 cents
      per share (equivalent to $1.64 per annum). Future dividends, declared at
      the discretion of the Board of Directors, will be dependent upon future
      earnings, cash flows, financial requirements and other factors.
7. Acquisitions, Development and Divestitures
    Domestic Generation Projects(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    At December 31, 2003, PPL Generation had two remaining spare gas combustion
      turbine generators and related equipment, originally intended for use in
      a cancelled project. In February 2004, a subsidiary of PPL Generation sold
      one spare gas combustion turbine generator and related equipment for approximately
      $10 million. In June 2004, the subsidiary sold the other spare gas combustion
      turbine generator and related equipment for approximately $9 million. The
      net loss from these sales was insignificant.
    The turbine upgrade for PPL Susquehanna Unit 1 was completed in April 2004.
      This project provides a nominal power increase of 49 MW of generation capacity,
      of which PPL Susquehanna has a 90% undivided interest. Through June 30,
      2004, a total of approximately $77 million had been incurred on the Unit
      1 upgrade.
    In May 2004, the 600 MW Lower Mt. Bethel plant in eastern Pennsylvania
      was placed in service. Construction of the natural gas-fired power plant
      began in December 2001. Through June 30, 2004, approximately $456 million
      had been incurred on the plant construction.
    In 2003, PPL Maine entered into an agreement in principle with a coalition
      of government agencies and private groups to sell three of its nine hydroelectric
      dams in Maine. The parties reached a final agreement in June 2004 and submitted
      the plan to the FERC for approval. Under the agreement, a non-profit organization
      designated by the coalition would have a five-year option to purchase the
      dams for approximately $25 million, and PPL Maine would receive rights to
      increase energy output at its other hydroelectric dams in Maine. The coalition
      has announced plans to remove or bypass the dams subject to the agreement
      in order to restore runs of Atlantic salmon and other migratory fish to
      the Penobscot River. The agreement will require several approvals by the
      FERC.
    See Note 6 for a discussion of the June 2004 purchase of the Sundance and
      University Park generation assets from a consolidated trust.
    In June 2004, a subsidiary of PPL Generation agreed to sell the 450 MW
      Sundance power plant located in Pinal County, Arizona, to the Arizona Public
      Service Company for approximately $190 million in cash, subject to the receipt
      of various state and federal regulatory approvals and customary closing
      conditions. If the necessary regulatory approvals can be obtained, the sale
      is expected to close in the first quarter of 2005. It is expected that the
      proceeds of the sale would be used to reduce PPL's outstanding debt. Either
      party may terminate the agreement if the required state regulatory approvals
      are not obtained by December 31, 2004. If it becomes likely that the required
      regulatory approvals will be obtained, PPL will reassess the Sundance assets
      for possible impairment. PPL cannot predict whether or when the regulatory
      approvals for this transaction will be obtained, and whether or when this
      transaction will be consummated.
    International Energy Projects (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    Sale of CEMAR
    In 2001, PPL Global estimated that the long-term viability of its CEMAR
      investment was jeopardized and that there was minimal probability of positive
      future cash flows. At that time, PPL Global recorded an impairment loss
      in the carrying value of its net assets in CEMAR. In March 2002, PPL Global
      recorded a further impairment loss. In June 2002, PPL made a decision to
      exit the investment. At that time, PPL Global's remaining portion of its
      CEMAR investment was written-off.
    On August 21, 2002, ANEEL authorized an administrative intervention in
      CEMAR and fully assumed operational and financial control of the company.
      The intervener appointed by ANEEL initiated efforts to transfer the ownership
      interest in CEMAR to a new owner. Since PPL Global no longer controlled
      or managed CEMAR, it deconsolidated the assets and liabilities of CEMAR
      from its financial statements and stopped recording CEMAR's operating results
      at that time. As of February 11, 2003, due to the inability to discharge
      their obligations under the continuing intervention, PPL-related officers
      and directors of CEMAR resigned from their respective positions.
    In April 2004, PPL Global transferred its interest in CEMAR to two companies
      controlled by a private equity fund managed by GP Investimentos, a Brazilian
      private equity firm. The sale resulted in a credit of approximately $23
      million, and is included in "Other Income - net" on the Statement of Income.
      This credit is a result of the reversal of the negative carrying value and
      the associated CTA.
    Discontinued Operations
    In December 2003, PPL Global's Board of Managers authorized PPL Global
      to sell its investment in a Latin American telecommunications company, and
      approved a plan of sale. It was determined that the viability of this non-strategic
      business was not economical. As a result, PPL Global recorded an $18 million
      write-down in the carrying value of the company's net assets to their estimated
      fair value of approximately $1 million.
    In June 2004, PPL Global sold this investment to local management for a
      nominal amount. The operating results of the Latin American telecommunications
      company, as well as an insignificant write-down of its net assets in 2004,
      are recorded as "Loss from Discontinued Operations" on the Statement of
      Income, approximately $2 million and $1 million for the six months ended
      June 30, 2004 and 2003.
    Other Sales
    In March 2004, PPL Global completed the sale of its minority interest in
      shares of CGE for approximately $123 million. The sale resulted in a charge
      of approximately $15 million pre-tax, which is included in operating expenses,
      as "Energy related businesses," on the Statement of Income. This charge
      was due primarily to the devaluation of the Chilean peso since the original
      acquisition in 2000.
    In June 2004, PPL Global completed the sale of its 50% ownership interest
      in nine small hydroelectric generating facilities in Spain for approximately
      $8 million. There was an insignificant loss on this transaction.
    DelSur Tender Offer
    In April 2004, EC launched a tender offer to acquire outstanding shares
      of DelSur for up to an aggregate purchase price of $17 million. The offer
      closed in May, with a purchase of 163,927 shares for approximately $5 million,
      increasing EC's ownership of DelSur by 5.34%. At June 30, 2004, EC owned
      approximately 85.9% of DelSur.
    Other(PPL)
    In June 2004, a PPL subsidiary evaluated its investment in a technology
      supplier for impairment. As a result of the evaluation, the subsidiary recorded
      an impairment charge of approximately $10 million pre-tax, which is included
      in "Other Income - net" on the Statement of Income.
8. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
    Energy Purchases and Sales Commitments
    Liability for Above Market NUG Contracts(PPL, PPL Energy
      Supply and PPL Electric)
    In 1998, PPL Electric recorded a loss accrual for above market contracts
      with NUGs of $854 million, due to its generation business being deregulated.
      Effective January 1999, PPL Electric began reducing this liability as an
      offset to "Energy purchases" on the Statement of Income. This reduction
      is based on the estimated timing of the purchases from the NUGs and projected
      market prices for this generation. The final existing NUG contract expires
      in 2014. In connection with the corporate realignment in 2000, the remaining
      balance of this liability was transferred to PPL EnergyPlus. At June 30,
      2004, the remaining liability associated with the above market NUG contracts
      was $315 million.
    Wholesale Energy Commitments (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    As part of the purchase of generation assets from Montana Power, PPL Montana
      assumed a power purchase agreement and a power sales agreement, which were
      still in effect at June 30, 2004. In accordance with purchase accounting
      guidelines, PPL Montana recorded liabilities of $65 million as the estimated
      fair value of these agreements at the acquisition date. These liabilities
      are being reduced over the terms of the agreements, through 2010, as adjustments
      to "Wholesale energy marketing" revenues and "Energy purchases" on the Statement
      of Income. The unamortized balance of the liability related to the power
      purchase agreement at June 30, 2004, was $54 million and is included in
      "Deferred Credits and Other Noncurrent Liabilities - Other" on the Balance
      Sheet. The power sales agreement was re-evaluated under DIG Issue C20, "Scope
      Exceptions: Interpretation of the Meaning of Not Clearly and Closely Related
      in Paragraph 10(b) Regarding Contracts With a Price Adjustment Feature,"
      and is now reflected at its fair value as a derivative instrument.
    On July 1, 2002, PPL EnergyPlus began to sell to NorthWestern an aggregate
      of 450 MW of energy to be supplied by PPL Montana. Under two five-year agreements,
      PPL EnergyPlus is supplying 300 MW of around-the-clock electricity and 150
      MW of unit-contingent on-peak electricity. PPL Montana also makes short-term
      energy sales to NorthWestern. Following NorthWestern's credit downgrades
      to below investment grade in late-2002, PPL Montana and NorthWestern agreed
      to modify the payment provisions of the energy contracts such that NorthWestern
      would pay PPL Montana on a weekly basis, in arrears.
    In September 2003, NorthWestern filed a voluntary petition for relief seeking
      to reorganize under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. NorthWestern
      made its filing in federal bankruptcy court in Delaware. Between the time
      of NorthWestern's last weekly payment and the bankruptcy filing date, PPL
      Montana made approximately $1.6 million of energy sales to NorthWestern.
    Following the date that NorthWestern filed for bankruptcy, PPL Montana
      and NorthWestern agreed to amend the power supply agreements to, among other
      things, eliminate the weekly payment arrangements and resume more typical
      monthly invoicing and payment arrangements. The amendments were contingent
      on NorthWestern's assumption of the power supply agreements in its bankruptcy
      proceeding.
    In September 2003, NorthWestern filed a motion with the bankruptcy court
      seeking, among other things, to assume the two five-year power supply agreements
      (as amended) and to pay PPL Montana for the approximately $1.6 million of
      energy sales made immediately prior to the time of the bankruptcy filing.
      In October 2003, the bankruptcy court entered an order granting NorthWestern's
      motion. NorthWestern has, in accordance with the terms of the judge's order,
      paid PPL Montana for the pre-filing energy sales, and the parties have resumed
      monthly invoicing and payment arrangements.
    In April 2003, the Maryland Public Service Commission authorized the competitive
      provision of the Standard Offer Service (SOS) to allow utilities to procure
      SOS for customers through the competitive selection of wholesale supply.
      In March 2004, PPL EnergyPlus was awarded an 11-month fixed-price SOS contract
      for customer load (approximately 60 MW) for Potomac Electric Power Company.
      This contract commenced in July 2004.
    As a result of New Jersey's Electric Discount and Energy Competition Act,
      the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities authorized and made available to
      power suppliers, on a competitive basis, the opportunity to provide Basic
      Generation Service (BGS) to all non-shopping New Jersey customers. In February
      2003, PPL EnergyPlus was awarded a 34-month fixed-price BGS contract for
      a fixed percentage of customer load (approximately 1,000 MW) for Atlantic
      City Electric Company, Jersey Central Power & Light Company and Public
      Service Electric & Gas Company. In February 2003, PPL EnergyPlus was
      also awarded about 500 MW for a 10-month hourly energy price supply contract.
      These contracts commenced in August 2003. Additionally, in February 2004,
      PPL EnergyPlus was awarded a 12-month hourly energy price supply BGS contract
      for a fixed percentage of customer load (approximately 450 MW) for Atlantic
      City Electric Company, Jersey Central Power & Light Company and Public
      Service Electric & Gas Company. These contracts commenced in June 2004.
    In April 2003, PPL EnergyPlus entered into an agreement with Arizona Public
      Service Company to provide 112 MW of capacity and associated electricity
      from July through September of 2003 and 150 MW from June through September
      of 2004 and 2005. See Note 7 for information regarding the possible sale
      of the Sundance power plant to Arizona Public Service Company.
    In May 2003, PPL EnergyPlus entered into agreements with Tucson Electric
      Power Company to provide 37 MW of capacity and associated electricity from
      June through December of 2003 and 75 MW from January 2004 through December
      2006.
    In May 2003, PPL EnergyPlus entered into a 20-year agreement with Community
      Energy, Inc. to purchase energy from its Bear Creek wind power project in
      northeastern Pennsylvania. The project is expected to produce up to 20 MW
      and be completed in 2005.
    In September 2003, Connecticut Light and Power Company (CL&P) issued
      a request for proposals seeking energy supply for CL&P's Transitional
      Standard Offer retail customer load. In October 2003, PPL EnergyPlus was
      awarded a three-year, fixed-price contract beginning in January 2004 to
      supply 12.5% of CL&P's Transitional Standard Offer load. During peak
      hours, PPL EnergyPlus' obligation to supply CL&P's Transitional Standard
      Offer load may reach 625 MW.
    Legal Matters
    (PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    PPL and its subsidiaries are involved in numerous legal proceedings, claims
      and litigation in the ordinary course of business. PPL and its subsidiaries
      cannot predict the ultimate outcome of such matters, or whether such matters
      may result in material liabilities.
    Montana Power Shareholders' Litigation(PPL and PPL Energy
      Supply)
    In August 2001, a purported class-action lawsuit was filed by a group of
      shareholders of Montana Power against Montana Power, the directors of Montana
      Power, certain advisors and consultants of Montana Power and PPL Montana.
      The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that Montana Power was required
      to, and did not, obtain shareholder approval of the sale of Montana Power's
      generation assets to PPL Montana in 1999. Although most of the claims in
      the complaint are against Montana Power, its board of directors, and its
      consultants and advisors, two claims are asserted against PPL Montana. In
      the first claim, plaintiffs seek a declaration that because Montana Power
      shareholders did not vote on the 1999 sale of generating assets to PPL Montana,
      that sale "was null and void ab initio." The second claim alleges that PPL
      Montana was privy to and participated in a strategy whereby Montana Power
      would sell its generation assets to PPL Montana without first obtaining
      Montana Power shareholder approval, and that PPL Montana has made net profits
      in excess of $100 million as the result of this alleged illegal sale. In
      the second claim, plaintiffs request that the court impose a "resulting
      and/or constructive trust" on both the generation assets themselves and
      all profits, plus interest on the amounts subject to the trust. This lawsuit
      is currently pending in the U.S. District Court of Montana, Butte Division.
      In July 2004, the plaintiffs notified the District Court that the parties
      had reached a partial settlement of the case that would result in the dismissal
      of PPL Montana as a defendant. Under the terms of the proposed settlement,
      PPL Montana would not have to pay any amount to the plaintiffs. The settlement
      must still be reduced to writing and approved by the plaintiff class and
      the District Court. PPL and PPL Energy Supply cannot predict whether the
      settlement will be approved or the ultimate outcome of this matter if the
      settlement is not approved.
    NorthWestern Corporation Litigation(PPL and PPL Energy
      Supply)
    In connection with the acquisition of the Montana generation assets, the
      Montana Power APA, which was previously assigned to PPL Montana by PPL Global,
      includes a provision concerning the proposed purchase by PPL Montana of
      a portion of NorthWestern's interest in the 500-kilovolt Colstrip Transmission
      System (CTS) for $97 million. During 2002, PPL Montana had been in discussions
      with NorthWestern regarding the proposed purchase of the CTS and the claims
      that PPL Montana believes it has against NorthWestern arising from the Montana
      Power APA and related agreements. Notwithstanding such discussions, in September
      2002, NorthWestern filed a lawsuit against PPL Montana in Montana state
      court seeking specific performance of PPL Montana's purchase of the CTS
      or, alternatively, damages for breach of contract. Pursuant to PPL Montana's
      application, the matter was removed to the U.S. District Court of Montana,
      Butte Division. Following removal, NorthWestern asserted additional claims
      for damages against PPL Montana, and PPL Montana filed defenses denying
      liability for NorthWestern's claims as well as counterclaims against NorthWestern
      seeking damages PPL Montana believes it has suffered under the Montana Power
      APA and related agreements.
    In September 2003, NorthWestern filed a petition in Delaware for reorganization
      under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, which resulted in an automatic stay of PPL
      Montana's counterclaims against NorthWestern. In December 2003, NorthWestern
      filed a motion to transfer this litigation from the Montana federal district
      court to the federal district court in Delaware where NorthWestern's bankruptcy
      proceeding is pending. In March 2004, the Montana federal district court
      denied this motion to transfer. As a result of the court's decision and
      a prior stipulation of NorthWestern and PPL Montana in NorthWestern's bankruptcy
      proceeding, the automatic stay of PPL Montana's counterclaims has been lifted.
      This matter currently is scheduled for trial in the Montana federal district
      court in mid-2005. PPL and PPL Energy Supply cannot predict the outcome
      of this litigation.
    Montana Hydroelectric Litigation (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    In October 2003, a lawsuit was filed against PPL Montana, PPL Services,
      Avista Corporation, PacifiCorp and nine John Doe defendants in the U.S.
      District Court of Montana, Missoula Division, by two residents allegedly
      acting in a representative capacity on behalf of the State of Montana. In
      January 2004, the complaint was amended to, among other things, include
      the Great Falls school districts as additional plaintiffs. In May 2004,
      the Montana Attorney General filed a motion to allow the State of Montana
      to intervene as an additional plaintiff in the litigation. The corporate
      defendants have filed motions to dismiss the State of Montana as a party
      plaintiff. The action seeks a declaratory judgment, compensatory damages
      for unjust enrichment, trespass and negligence, and attorneys fees on a
      "private attorney general" theory for use of state and/or "school trust"
      lands without the compensation required by law and to require the defendants
      to adequately compensate the state and/or the State School Trust fund for
      full market value of lands occupied. Generally, the suit is founded on allegations
      that the bed of navigable rivers is state-owned property following admission
      to statehood, and that the use thereof for placement of dam structures,
      affiliated structures and reservoirs should trigger lease payments for use
      of land underneath. The plaintiffs allege that the State Land Board and
      Department of Natural Resources and Conservation failed to exercise their
      duty to administer riverbeds for the maximum benefit of public education
      and/or the state. No specific amount of damages or future rental value has
      been claimed. PPL Montana and PPL Services cannot predict the outcome of
      this litigation.
    Proposed Montana Energy Security Initiative (PPL and PPL Energy
      Supply)
    On April 30, 2004, the Montana Secretary of State certified, in accordance
      with applicable statutes, that it had approved the form of a proposed "Montana
      Energy Security Act" initiative. The proposed initiative was determined
      by the Montana Attorney General to be legally sufficient, but the initiative
      failed to qualify for the November 2004 statewide ballot because sufficient
      signatures were not obtained prior to June 18, 2004. Among the stated purposes
      of the proposed initiative was the creation of a Montana public power board,
      appointed by the governor, to determine whether it would be in the public
      interest to purchase electric and natural gas generation, transmission and
      distribution facilities in Montana on behalf of the state. The proposed
      initiative would have permitted the board to purchase such facilities, including
      any or all of PPL Montana's hydroelectric dams or coal-fired facilities,
      at fair market value.
    Regulatory Issues
    California ISO and Western Markets (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    Through its subsidiaries, PPL has made approximately $18 million of sales
      to the California ISO, of which $17 million has not been paid to PPL subsidiaries.
      Given the myriad of electricity supply problems presently faced by the California
      electric utilities and the California ISO, PPL cannot predict whether or
      when it will receive payment. As of June 30, 2004, PPL has fully reserved
      for possible underrecoveries of payments for these sales.
    Regulatory proceedings arising out of the California electricity supply
      situation have been filed at the FERC. The FERC has determined that all
      sellers of energy into markets operated by the California ISO and the California
      Power Exchange, including PPL Montana, should be subject to refund liability
      for the period beginning October 2, 2000, through June 20, 2001, and initiated
      an evidentiary hearing concerning refund amounts. In April 2003, the FERC
      changed the manner in which this refund liability is to be computed and
      ordered further proceedings to determine the exact amounts that the sellers,
      including PPL Montana, would be required to refund.
    In June 2003, the FERC took several actions as a result of a number of
      related investigations. The FERC terminated proceedings pursuant to which
      it had been considering whether to order refunds for spot market bilateral
      sales made in the Pacific Northwest, including sales made by PPL Montana,
      during the period December 2000 through June 2001. The FERC explained that
      the totality of the circumstances made refunds unfeasible and inequitable,
      and that it had provided adequate relief by adopting a price cap throughout
      the western U.S. The FERC also denied pending complaints against long-term
      contracts in the western U.S. In these complaints, various power buyers
      challenged selected long-term contracts that they entered into during 2000
      and 2001, complaining that the power prices were too high and reflected
      manipulation of those energy markets. The FERC found that the complainants
      had not met their burden of showing that changing or canceling the contracts
      was "in the public interest" and that the dysfunction in the California
      markets did not justify changing these long-term contracts. In two separate
      orders, the FERC also ordered 65 different companies, agencies or municipalities
      to show cause why they should not be ordered to disgorge profits for "gaming"
      or anomalous market behavior during 2000 and 2001. These orders to show
      cause address both unilateral and joint conduct identified as the "Enron
      trading strategies." Neither PPL EnergyPlus nor PPL Montana was included
      in these orders to show cause, and they previously have explained in responses
      to data requests from the FERC that they have not engaged in such trading
      strategies. Finally, the FERC issued a new investigation order directing
      its staff to investigate any bids made into the California markets in excess
      of $250/MWh during the period from May 2000 to October 2000, a period of
      time prior to the period examined in connection with most of the proceedings
      described above. To their knowledge, neither PPL EnergyPlus nor PPL Montana
      is being investigated by the FERC under this new order.
    Litigation arising out of the California electricity supply situation has
      been filed in California courts against sellers of energy to the California
      ISO. The plaintiffs and interveners in these legal proceedings allege, among
      other things, abuse of market power, manipulation of market prices, unfair
      trade practices and violations of state antitrust laws, and seek other relief,
      including treble damages and attorneys' fees. While PPL's subsidiaries have
      not been named by the plaintiffs in these legal proceedings, PPL Montana
      was named by a defendant in its cross-complaint in a consolidated court
      proceeding, which combined into one master proceeding several of the lawsuits
      alleging antitrust violations and unfair trade practices. This generator
      denies that any unlawful, unfair or fraudulent conduct occurred but asserts
      that, if it is found liable, the other generators and power marketers, including
      PPL Montana, caused, contributed to and/or participated in the plaintiffs'
      alleged losses.
    In May 2003, the Port of Seattle filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court
      for the Western District of Washington against eighteen defendants, including
      PPL Montana. The lawsuit asserts claims against all defendants under the
      federal and state antitrust laws, the federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt
      Organizations Act and for common law fraud. The complaint centers on many
      of the same alleged activities that are the basis for the litigation arising
      out of the California electricity supply situation described above. The
      Port of Seattle is seeking actual, trebled and punitive damages, as well
      as attorneys' fees. In December 2003, this matter was transferred to the
      U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California for inclusion
      with proceedings already centralized and pending in that court. In May 2004,
      the District Court dismissed the action. In its appeal of this decision,
      the Port of Seattle expressly excluded PPL Montana, thereby making the District
      Court's dismissal final as to PPL Montana.
    In February 2004, the Montana Public Service Commission initiated a limited
      investigation of the Montana retail electricity market for the years 2000
      and 2001, focusing on how that market was affected by transactions involving
      the possible manipulation of the electricity grid in the western U.S. The
      investigation includes all public utilities and licensed electricity suppliers
      in Montana, as well as other entities that may possess relevant information.
      Through its subsidiaries, PPL is a licensed electricity supplier in Montana
      and a wholesale supplier in the western U.S. In June 2004, the Montana Attorney
      General served PPL Montana and more than 20 other companies with subpoenas
      requesting documents, and PPL Montana currently is providing responsive
      documents to the Montana Attorney General. As with the other investigations
      taking place as a result of the issues arising out of the electricity supply
      situation in California and other western states, PPL and its subsidiaries
      believe that they have not engaged in any improper trading or marketing
      practices affecting the Montana retail electricity market.
    While PPL and its subsidiaries believe that they have not engaged in any
      improper trading practices, they cannot predict whether, or the extent to
      which, any PPL subsidiaries will be the target of any additional governmental
      investigations or named in other lawsuits or refund proceedings, the outcome
      of any such lawsuits or proceedings or whether the ultimate impact on them
      of the electricity supply situation in California and other western states
      will be material.
    PJM Capacity Transactions(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and
      PPL Electric)
    In September 2002, PPL was served with a complaint filed by Utilimax.com,
      Inc., which was a member of PJM, in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern
      District of Pennsylvania against PPL and PPL EnergyPlus alleging, among
      other things, violations of the federal antitrust laws in connection with
      the pricing of installed capacity in the PJM daily market during the first
      quarter of 2001. The court dismissed the complaint with prejudice in July
      2003, and Utilimax has appealed the court's dismissal to the U.S. Court
      of Appeals for the Third Circuit.
    In December 2002, PPL was served with a complaint against PPL, PPL EnergyPlus
      and PPL Electric filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District
      of Pennsylvania by a group of 14 Pennsylvania boroughs that apparently alleges,
      in broad terms, similar violations of the federal antitrust laws. These
      boroughs were wholesale customers of PPL Electric. The claims of the boroughs
      are similar to those previously alleged by a single borough in litigation
      that is still pending in the same court. In addition, in November 2003,
      PPL and PPL EnergyPlus were served with a complaint which was filed in the
      same court by Joseph Martorano, III (d/b/a ENERCO), that also alleges violations
      of the federal antitrust laws in early 2001. The complaint indicates that
      ENERCO provides consulting and energy procurement services to clients in
      Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
    Each of the U.S. Department of Justice - Antitrust Division, the FERC and
      the Pennsylvania Attorney General conducted investigations regarding PPL's
      PJM capacity market transactions in early 2001 and did not find any reason
      to take action against PPL.
    Although PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric believe the claims in
      these complaints are without merit, they cannot predict the outcome of these
      matters.
    New England Investigation (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    In January 2004, PPL became aware of an investigation by the Connecticut
      Attorney General and the FERC's Office of Market Oversight and Investigation
      (OMOI) regarding allegations that natural gas-fired generators located in
      New England illegally sold natural gas instead of generating electricity
      during the week of January 12, 2004. Subsequently, PPL and other generators
      were served with a data request by OMOI. The data request indicated that
      PPL was not under suspicion of a regulatory violation, but that OMOI was
      conducting an initial investigation. PPL has responded to this data request.
      PPL also has responded to data requests of ISO - New England and data requests
      served by subpoena from the Connecticut Attorney General. Both OMOI and
      ISO - New England have issued preliminary reports finding no regulatory
      or other violations concerning these matters. While PPL does not believe
      that it committed any regulatory or other violations concerning the subject
      matter of these investigations, PPL cannot predict the outcome of these
      investigations.
    PJM Billing (PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    
    In March 2004, an Exelon Corporation subsidiary, PECO Energy, Inc. (PECO),
      alleged that PJM had overcharged PECO by approximately $45 million, exclusive
      of interest, from April 1998 through May 2003 as a result of an error by
      PJM in the State Estimator Program used in connection with billing all PJM
      customers for certain transmission, spot market energy and ancillary services
      charges. PECO further alleged that PPL Electric or other PPL subsidiaries
      should be responsible for all these overcharges, plus interest. PPL, PECO
      and PJM have selected a mediator to conduct a non-binding mediation of the
      dispute pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures of the PJM Operating
      Agreement. Although participating in the discussions, PPL Electric and PPL
      Energy Supply do not believe that they or any PPL subsidiaries have any
      financial responsibility or liability to PJM or PECO as a result of PJM's
      alleged error. PJM has not taken a position on this matter. PPL Electric
      and PPL Energy Supply cannot predict the outcome of these discussions, whether
      any legal proceedings may result from these allegations, the outcome of
      such proceedings, or the ultimate impact on any PPL subsidiary.
    FERC Market-Based Rate Authority (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    In December 1998, the FERC issued an order authorizing PPL EnergyPlus to
      make wholesale sales of electric power and related products at market-based
      rates. In that order, the FERC directed PPL EnergyPlus to file an updated
      market analysis within three years of the date of the order, and every three
      years thereafter. PPL EnergyPlus filed its initial updated market analysis
      in December 2001. Several parties thereafter filed interventions and protests
      requesting that PPL EnergyPlus be required to provide additional information
      demonstrating that it has met the FERC's market power tests necessary for
      PPL EnergyPlus to continue its market-based rate authority. PPL EnergyPlus
      has responded that the FERC does not require the economic test suggested
      by the interveners and that, in any event, it would meet such economic test
      if required by the FERC.
    In June 2004, FERC approved certain changes to its standards for granting
      market-based rate authority. As a result, PPL EnergyPlus will need to re-file
      for market-based rate authority under the new standards in November 2004.
      PPL EnergyPlus cannot predict the outcome of this filing.
    FERC Proposed Rules (PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    In July 2002, the FERC issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking entitled
      "Remedying Undue Discrimination through Open Access Transmission Service
      and Standard Electricity Market Design." The proposed rule is currently
      available for public comment and contains a proposed implementation date
      of July 31, 2003. However, since the issuance of the proposed rule, the
      FERC has delayed the implementation date. This far-reaching proposed rule,
      in its current form, purports to establish uniform transmission rules and
      a standard market design by, among other things:
    
        enacting standard transmission tariffs
            and uniform market mechanisms,
        monitoring and mitigating "market power,"
        managing transmission congestion through
            pricing and tradable financial rights,
        requiring independent operational control
            over transmission facilities,
        forming state advisory committees on
            regional transmission organizations and resource adequacy, and
        exercising FERC jurisdiction over all
            transmission service.In April 2003, the FERC issued a white paper describing certain modifications
      to the proposed rule. The FERC has requested comments and is holding numerous
      public comment sessions concerning the white paper.
    If adopted, this proposed rule may have a significant impact on PPL and
      its subsidiaries, which cannot be predicted at this time.
    In November 2003, the FERC adopted a proposed rule to require all existing
      and new electric market-based tariffs and authorizations to include provisions
      prohibiting the seller from engaging in anticompetitive behavior or the
      exercise of market power. The FERC order adopts a list of market behavior
      rules that apply to all electric market-based rate tariffs and authorizations,
      including those of PPL EnergyPlus and any other PPL subsidiaries that hold
      market-based rate authority. PPL does not expect this rule to have a significant
      impact on its subsidiaries.
    Wallingford Deactivation (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    In January 2003, PPL negotiated an agreement with the ISO - New England
      that would declare that four of the five units at PPL's Wallingford, Connecticut
      facility are "reliability must run" units and put those units under cost-based
      rates. This agreement and the cost-based rates are subject to the FERC's
      approval, and PPL filed a request with the FERC for such approval. PPL requested
      authority for cost-based rates because the current and anticipated wholesale
      prices in New England are insufficient to cover the costs of keeping these
      units available for operation. In March 2003, PPL filed an application with
      the New England Power Pool to temporarily deactivate these four units. In
      May 2003, the FERC denied PPL's request for cost-based rates in light of
      the FERC's changes to the market and bid mitigation rules of ISO - New England
      made in a similar case involving generating units owned by NRG Energy, Inc.
      PPL subsequently has explained to the FERC that its changes to the market
      and bid mitigation rules of ISO - New England will not provide sufficient
      revenues to PPL, and PPL continues to seek approval of its cost-based rates.
      However, PPL has informed the New England Power Pool that it will not pursue
      its request to temporarily deactivate certain Wallingford units. In February
      2004, PPL appealed the FERC's denial of its request for cost-based rates
      to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. PPL cannot
      predict the outcome of this matter.
    IRS Synthetic Fuels Tax Credits (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    PPL, through its subsidiaries, has interests in two synthetic fuel production
      facilities: the Somerset facility located in Pennsylvania and the Tyrone
      facility located in Kentucky. PPL receives tax credits pursuant to Section
      29 of the Internal Revenue Code based on the sale of synthetic fuel from
      these facilities to unaffiliatedthird-party purchasers. Section
      29 of the Internal Revenue Code provides tax credits for the production
      and sale of solid synthetic fuels produced from coal. To qualify for the
      Section 29 tax credits, the synthetic fuel must meet three primary conditions:
      (i) there must be a significant chemical change in the coal feedstock, (ii)
      the product must be sold to an unaffiliated entity, and (iii) the production
      facility must have been placed in service before July 1, 1998. Section 29
      tax credits are currently scheduled to expire at the end of 2007.
    A PPL subsidiary owns and operates the Somerset facility. In November 2001,
      PPL received a private letter ruling from the IRS pursuant to which, among
      other things, the IRS concluded that the synthetic fuel produced at the
      Somerset facility qualifies for Section 29 tax credits. The Somerset facility
      uses the Covol technology to produce synthetic fuel, and the IRS issued
      the private letter ruling after its review and approval of that technology.
      In reliance on this private letter ruling, PPL has sold synthetic fuel produced
      at the Somerset facility resulting in an aggregate of approximately $175 million
      of tax credits as of June 30, 2004.
    PPL owns a limited partnership interest in the entity that owns and operates
      the Tyrone facility. In April 2004, this entity received a private letter
      ruling from the IRS. Similar to its conclusions relating to the Somerset
      facility, the IRS concluded that the synthetic fuel to be produced at the
      Tyrone facility qualifies for Section 29 tax credits. The Tyrone facility
      commenced commercial operations in the third quarter of 2004 after being
      relocated to Kentucky from Pennsylvania.
    PPL also purchases synthetic fuel from unaffiliated third parties, at prices
      below the market price of coal, for use at its coal-fired power plants.
    In June 2003, the IRS announced that it had reason to question the scientific
      validity of certain test procedures and results that have been presented
      to it by taxpayers with interests in synthetic fuel operations as evidence
      that the required significant chemical change has occurred, and that it
      was reviewing information regarding these test procedures and practices.
      In October 2003, the IRS announced that it had completed its review and
      determined that the test procedures and results used by taxpayers are scientifically
      valid, if the procedures are applied in a consistent and unbiased manner.
      The IRS indicated that it would require taxpayers to comply with certain
      sampling and data/record retention practices to obtain or maintain a ruling
      on significant chemical change.
    PPL believes that the October IRS announcement and its receipt of the private
      letter ruling for the Tyrone facility following this announcement confirms
      that PPL is justified in its reliance on the private letter rulings for
      the Somerset and Tyrone facilities and that the test results that PPL presented
      to the IRS in connection with its private letter rulings are scientifically
      valid. In addition, PPL believes that it has operated the Somerset facility
      in compliance with the private letter ruling and Section 29 of the Internal
      Revenue Code.
    In October 2003, following the IRS announcement, it was reported that the
      U.S. Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, of the Committee on
      Governmental Affairs, had begun an investigation of the synthetic fuel industry
      and its producers. That investigation is ongoing. PPL cannot predict when
      the investigation will be completed or the potential results of the investigation.
    Certain other owners or operators of synthetic fuel facilities have recently
      reported that the IRS has questioned whether their facilities were placed
      in service before July 1, 1998. Whether or not a facility meets the "in
      service" requirement is based on the particular facts and circumstances
      relating to the operation of that facility. PPL is not aware of the facts
      and circumstances relating to the operation of the facilities being questioned
      by the IRS or the specific IRS position in these other matters. However,
      PPL believes that the Tyrone and Somerset facilities meet the in service
      requirement.
    U.K. Electricity Regulation(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    The principal legislation governing the structure of the electricity industry
      in Great Britain is the Electricity Act 1989 (the "Electricity Act"), as
      amended by the Utilities Act 2000 (the "Utilities Act").
    The provisions in the Utilities Act include the replacement of individual
      gas and electricity regulators with the Gas and Electricity Markets Authority
      (the "Regulator"). The principal objective of the Regulator is to protect
      the interests of consumers, wherever appropriate, by promoting effective
      competition in electricity generation and supply. There currently is no
      competition in electricity distribution, but recently a small operator has
      applied to the Regulator for a license to operate in Great Britain.
    Each distribution business constitutes a natural regional monopoly and
      is subject to control on the prices it can charge and the quality of supply
      it must provide. The operations of WPD are regulated under its distribution
      licenses, pursuant to which income generated is subject to an allowed revenue
      regulatory framework that provides economic incentives to minimize operating,
      capital and financing costs. Under the Electricity Act, WPD is under a statutory
      duty to offer terms to connect any customer requiring electricity within
      their area and to maintain that connection. The allowed revenue that is
      recovered from electricity supply businesses through charges by the Distribution
      Network Operator (DNO) made for the use of the distribution network is regulated
      on the basis of the Retail Price Index (RPI) minus X formula. The allowed
      revenue is increased by RPI minus X during the tenure of each price control
      period. (RPI is a measure of inflation and equals the percentage change
      in the U.K. RPI between the six-month period of July to December in the
      previous year. The X factor is established by the Regulator following review
      and represents an annual efficiency factor.) The Regulator currently sets
      the Distribution Price Control Formula for five-year periods.
    The current Distribution Price Control Formula permits DNOs, within a review
      period, to partially retain additional revenues due to increased distribution
      of units and to retain all increases in operating profit due to efficient
      operations and the reduction of expenses (including financing costs). The
      Regulator may reduce this increase in operating profit through a one-off
      price reduction in the first year of the new pricing regime, if the Regulator
      determines that it is not a function of efficiency savings, or if genuine
      efficiency savings have been made and the Regulator determines that customers
      should benefit through lower prices.
    In December 1999, the Regulator published final price proposals for distribution
      price control for the 12 DNOs in England and Wales. These proposals represented
      a reduction to distribution prices of 20% for WPD (South West) and 26% for
      WPD (South Wales) effective April 2000, followed by a reduction in real
      terms (i.e., before inflation is taken into account) of 3% each year from
      April 2001. This price control is scheduled to operate until March 2005.
    Improvements in quality of supply form an important part of the final proposals.
      Revised targets for system performance, in terms of the security and availability
      of supply, were implemented with new targets for reductions in minutes lost
      and interruptions.
    The Regulator previously introduced a quality of service incentive plan
      for the period from April 2002 to March 2005. Companies may be penalized
      annually up to 2% of revenue for failing to meet their quality of supply
      targets for the incentive plan. The plan includes a mechanism for rewarding
      companies which exceed their targets based on their rate of improvement
      of performance during the period and a process for rewarding exceptional
      performance by specifying how the targets will be reset.
    Distribution businesses must also meet the Guaranteed and Overall Standards
      of Performance, which are set by the Regulator to ensure an appropriate
      level of quality of supply. If a company fails to provide the level of service
      specified, it must make a fixed payment to the retail customer affected.
    In July 2004, the Regulator published a report on the quality of supply
      from April 2002 through March 2003. The report confirms that WPD (South
      West) and WPD (South Wales) met or exceeded quality of service targets set
      by the Regulator.
    In June 2004, the Regulator published its initial distribution price control
      proposal for the next five-year price control period, which will commence
      April 1, 2005. This initial proposal is the latest step in the Regulator's
      ongoing price review of WPD and the other DNOs in England and Wales. The
      Regulator's review is expected to be completed in November 2004. The initial
      proposal acknowledged WPD's leading quality-of-service performance and provided
      an additional 1% in revenues because of WPD's reliability performance. PPL
      cannot predict the final outcome of the Regulator's review or how the Regulator's
      final decision will impact WPD's revenues.
    Environmental Matters - Domestic
    (PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    Due to the environmental issues discussed below or other environmental
      matters, PPL subsidiaries may be required to modify, replace or cease operating
      certain facilities to comply with statutes, regulations and actions by regulatory
      bodies or courts. In this regard, PPL subsidiaries also may incur capital
      expenditures or operating expenses in amounts which are not now determinable,
      but which could be significant.
    Air(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    The Clean Air Act deals, in part, with acid rain, attainment of federal
      ambient ozone standards and toxic air emissions in the U.S. PPL's subsidiaries
      are in substantial compliance with the Clean Air Act. The Bush administration
      and certain members of Congress have made proposals regarding possible amendments
      to the Clean Air Act. These amendments could require significant further
      reductions in nitrogen oxide, sulfur dioxide and mercury and could possibly
      require measures to limit carbon dioxide. The cost of these reductions could
      be substantial. The federal government is seeking commitments from many
      major industries to voluntarily reduce carbon dioxide emissions. In addition,
      several states have taken their own actions requiring mandatory carbon dioxide
      emission reductions. Pennsylvania and Montana have not, at this time, established
      any formal programs to address carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases.
    The Pennsylvania DEP began requiring further seasonal (May-June) nitrogen
      oxide reductions to 80% from 1990 levels starting in 2003. This requirement
      is pursuant to the EPA's 1998 State Implementation Plan (SIP) call to 22
      eastern states, including Pennsylvania, to revise their state implementation
      plans. PPL achieved the 2003 nitrogen oxide reductions with the installation
      of SCR technology on the Montour units, and may install SCR or other additional
      nitrogen oxide reduction technology on one or more Brunner Island units
      at a later date.
    The EPA has also developed new standards for ambient levels of ozone and
      fine particulates in the U.S. These standards have been upheld following
      court challenges. To facilitate attainment of these standards, the EPA has
      also proposed a rule (now called the Clean Air Interstate Rule - CAIR) for
      28 midwestern and eastern states, including Pennsylvania, to reduce sulfur
      dioxide emissions by 40% and nitrogen oxide emissions by 55% from current
      required levels, starting in 2010. Starting in 2015, the proposed rule requires
      reductions in sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide of 70% and 65%, respectively,
      from current required levels. The proposed rule allows these reductions
      to be achieved through cap-and-trade programs, and is consistent with the
      Bush administration's proposed amendments to the Clean Air Act, except that
      it applies to only the 28 states. In order to meet requirements of the CAIR,
      PPL has been evaluating the installation of sulfur dioxide scrubbers at
      one or more of its Pennsylvania plants, as well as the installation of SCR
      technology at Brunner Island.
    The EPA has proposed mercury and nickel regulations and is expected to
      finalize these regulations in 2004. The proposed mercury regulations affect
      coal-fired plants. With respect to mercury, the EPA has proposed two alternative
      approaches: an emission trading program to take effect beginning January
      2010 or a requirement to take effect in 2007 that every unit install maximum
      achievable control technology (MACT). The proposed nickel regulations impose
      MACT requirements on oil-fired units to take effect in 2007. The nickel
      regulations would affect Martins Creek Units 3 and 4. The cost of complying
      with these regulations is not now determinable, but could be significant.
    In 1999, the EPA initiated enforcement actions against several utilities,
      asserting that older, coal-fired power plants operated by those utilities
      have, over the years, been modified in ways that subject them to more stringent
      "New Source" requirements under the Clean Air Act. The EPA has since issued
      notices of violation and commenced enforcement activities against other
      utilities. The future direction of the EPA's enforcement initiative is presently
      unclear. Therefore, at this time, PPL is unable to predict whether such
      EPA enforcement actions will be brought with respect to any of its affiliates'
      plants. However, the EPA regional offices that regulate plants in Pennsylvania
      (Region III) and Montana (Region VIII) have indicated an intention to issue
      information requests to all utilities in their jurisdiction. The Region
      VIII office issued such a request to PPL Montana's Corette plant in 2000
      and the Colstrip plant in 2003. The Region III office issued such a request
      to PPL Generation's Martins Creek plant in 2002. PPL and its subsidiaries
      have responded to the Corette and Martins Creek information requests and
      began responding to the Colstrip information request. The EPA has stayed
      further production of Colstrip documents pending discussion among the Colstrip
      owners and the EPA. The EPA has taken no further action following the Martins
      Creek and Corette submittals. PPL cannot presently predict what, if any,
      action the EPA might take in this regard. Should the EPA or any state initiate
      one or more enforcement actions against PPL or its subsidiaries, compliance
      with any such enforcement actions could result in additional capital and
      operating expenses which are not now determinable, but which could be significant.
    In 2003, the EPA issued changes to its "New Source" regulations that clarify
      what projects are exempt from "New Source" requirements as routine maintenance
      and repair. Under these clarifications, any project to replace existing
      equipment with functionally equivalent equipment would be considered routine
      maintenance and excluded from "New Source" review if the cost of the replaced
      equipment does not exceed 20% of the replacement cost of the entire process
      unit, the basic design is not changed and no permit limit is exceeded. These
      clarifications would substantially reduce the uncertainties under the prior
      "New Source" regulations; however, they have been stayed by the U.S. Court
      of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. PPL is therefore continuing
      to operate under the "New Source" regulations as they existed prior to the
      EPA's clarifications.
    The New Jersey DEP and some New Jersey residents raised environmental concerns
      with respect to the Martins Creek plant, particularly with respect to sulfur
      dioxide emissions and the opacity of the plant's plume. These issues were
      raised in the context of an appeal by the New Jersey DEP of the Air Quality
      Plan Approval issued by the Pennsylvania DEP to the adjacent Lower Mt. Bethel
      facility. In October 2003, PPL finalized an agreement with the New Jersey
      DEP and the Pennsylvania DEP pursuant to which it will reduce sulfur dioxide
      emissions from its Martins Creek power plant. Under the agreement, PPL Martins
      Creek will shut down the plant's two coal-fired generating units by September
      2007 and may repower them any time after shutting them down so long as it
      follows all applicable state and federal requirements, including installing
      the best available pollution control technology. Pursuant to the agreement,
      PPL Martins Creek began reducing the fuel sulfur content for the coal units
      as well as the plant's two oil-fired units in June 2004. In addition, PPL
      will donate to a non-profit organization 70% of the excess emission allowances
      and emission reduction credits that result from shutting down or repowering
      the coal units. As a result of the agreement, the New Jersey DEP withdrew
      its challenge to the Air Quality Plan Approval for the Lower Mt. Bethel
      facility. The agreement will not result in material costs to PPL. The agreement
      does not address the issues raised by the New Jersey DEP regarding the visible
      opacity of emissions from the Martins Creek plant. If it is determined that
      actions must be taken to address the visible opacity of these emissions,
      such actions could result in costs that are not now determinable, but which
      could be significant.
    In addition to the opacity concerns raised by the New Jersey DEP, the Pennsylvania
      DEP also has raised concerns about the opacity of emissions from the Martins
      Creek and Montour plants. PPL is discussing these concerns with the Pennsylvania
      DEP. If it is determined that actions must be taken to address the Pennsylvania
      DEP's concerns, such actions could result in costs that are not now determinable,
      but which could be significant.
    
    In December 2003, PPL Montana, as operator of the Colstrip facility, received
      an Administrative Compliance Order (ACO) from the EPA pursuant to the Clean
      Air Act. The ACO alleges that Units 3 and 4 of the facility have been in
      violation of the Clean Air Act permit at Colstrip since 1980. The permit
      required Colstrip to submit for review and approval by the EPA an analysis
      and proposal for reducing emissions of nitrogen oxide to address visibility
      concerns if and when the EPA promulgates Best Available Retrofit Technology
      requirements for nitrogen oxide. The EPA is asserting that regulations it
      promulgated in 1980 triggered this requirement. PPL believes that the ACO
      is unfounded and is discussing the matter with the EPA. The ACO does not
      expressly seek penalties, and it is unclear at this time what, if any, additional
      control technology the EPA may consider to be required. Accordingly, the
      costs to install any additional controls for nitrogen oxide, if required,
      are not now determinable, but could be significant. In addition, the Montana
      Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) is questioning whether the permit
      limits for sulfur dioxide emissions from Colstrip Units 3 and 4 are too
      high under provisions of the Clean Air Act that limit allowable emissions
      from sources built after 1978. PPL is engaged in settlement negotiations
      on these matters with the EPA, the Montana DEQ and the Northern Cheyenne
      Tribe. PPL cannot predict the outcome of this matter.
    Water/Waste(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    Brunner Island's NPDES permit contains a provision requiring further studies
      on the thermal impact of the cooling water discharge from the plant. These
      studies are underway and are expected to be completed in 2006. The Pennsylvania
      DEP has stated that it believes the studies to date show that the temperature
      of the discharge must be lowered. The Pennsylvania DEP has also stated that
      it believes the plant is in violation of a permit condition prohibiting
      the discharge from changing the river temperature by more than two degrees
      per hour. PPL is discussing these matters with the agency. Depending on
      the outcome of these discussions, the plant could be subject to additional
      capital and operating costs that are not now determinable, but which could
      be significant.
    The Pennsylvania DEP has issued a water quality certification and NPDES
      permit to PPL Holtwood, LLC in the FERC license renewal proceeding for its
      Lake Wallenpaupack hydroelectric facility. PPL has appealed both the certification
      and the NPDES permit. The parties are close to a settlement of this appeal
      that, if finalized, would not impose significant additional costs on PPL.
    The EPA has significantly tightened the water quality standard for arsenic.
      The revised standard becomes effective in 2006. The revised standard may
      result in action by individual states that could require several PPL subsidiaries
      to either further treat wastewater or take abatement action at their power
      plants, or both. The cost of complying with any such requirements is not
      now determinable, but could be significant.
    The EPA recently finalized requirements for new or modified water intake
      structures. These requirements affect where generating facilities are built,
      establish intake design standards, and could lead to requirements for cooling
      towers at new and modified power plants. Another new rule that was finalized
      in July 2004 addresses existing structures. PPL does not believe that either
      of these rules will impose material costs on PPL subsidiaries. However,
      six northeastern states recently challenged the new rules for existing structures
      as being inadequate. If this challenge is successful, it could result in
      the EPA establishing stricter standards for existing structures that could
      impose material costs on PPL subsidiaries.
    Superfund and Other Remediation
    (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    Under the Pennsylvania Clean Streams Law, subsidiaries of PPL Generation
      are obligated to remediate acid mine drainage at former mine sites and may
      be required to take additional measures to prevent potential acid mine drainage
      at previously capped refuse piles. One PPL Generation subsidiary is pumping
      and treating mine water at two mine sites. Another PPL Generation subsidiary
      is installing passive wetlands treatment at a third site, and the Pennsylvania
      DEP has suggested that it may require that PPL Generation subsidiary to
      pump and treat the mine water at that third site. At June 30, 2004, a PPL
      Energy Supply subsidiary had accrued $29 million to cover the costs of pumping
      and treating groundwater at the two mine sites for 50 years and for installing
      passive wetlands treatment at the third site.
    (PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    In 1995, PPL Electric and PPL Generation entered into a consent order with
      the Pennsylvania DEP to address a number of sites that were not being addressed
      under another regulatory program such as Superfund, but for which PPL Electric
      or PPL Generation may be liable for remediation. This may include potential
      PCB contamination at certain PPL Electric substations and pole sites; potential
      contamination at a number of coal gas manufacturing facilities formerly
      owned or operated by PPL Electric; oil or other contamination which may
      exist at some of PPL Electric's former generating facilities; and potential
      contamination at abandoned power plant sites owned by PPL Generation. As
      of June 30, 2004, work has been completed for 97% of the sites included
      in the consent order. Additional sites formerly owned or operated by PPL
      Electric are added to the consent order on a case-by-case basis.
    In 1996, PPL Gas Utilities entered into a similar consent order with the
      Pennsylvania DEP to address a number of sites where subsidiaries of PPL
      Gas Utilities may be liable for remediation. The sites primarily include
      former coal gas manufacturing facilities. Subsidiaries of PPL Gas Utilities
      are also investigating the potential for any mercury contamination from
      gas meters and regulators. Accordingly, PPL Gas Utilities and the Pennsylvania
      DEP have agreed to add 72 meter/regulation sites to the consent order. As
      of June 30, 2004, PPL Gas Utilities had addressed 34% of the sites under
      its consent order.
    At June 30, 2004, PPL Electric and PPL Gas Utilities had accrued approximately
      $3 million and $8 million, representing the estimated amounts each will
      have to spend for site remediation, including those sites covered by each
      company's consent orders mentioned above. Depending on the outcome of investigations
      at sites where investigations have not begun or have not been completed,
      the costs of remediation and other liabilities could be substantial. PPL
      also could face other non-remediation liabilities at sites included in the
      consent order or other contaminated sites, the costs of which are not now
      determinable, but which could be significant.
    (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    In conjunction with its 1999 acquisition of generating assets from Montana
      Power, PPL Montana required Montana Power to prepare a Phase I and Phase
      II Environmental Site Assessment. The assessment identified various seepages
      from the freshwater pond and wastewater ponds at the Colstrip plant. Based
      upon that assessment and subsequent assessments by PPL Montana, certain
      groundwater remediation measures have been implemented. However, additional
      investigations are ongoing and additional remediation measures could be
      required at costs which are not now determinable, but which could be significant.
    In May 2003, approximately 50 plaintiffs brought an action in the Montana
      Second Judicial District Court, Butte-Silver Bow County, against PPL Montana
      and the other owners of the Colstrip plant alleging property damage from
      the seepage noted above. This action has been moved to the Montana Sixteenth
      Judicial District Court, Rosebud County. This action could result in PPL
      Montana and the other Colstrip owners being liable for damages and being
      required to take additional remedial measures beyond those noted above.
      The cost to PPL Montana of any such damages and remedial measures is not
      now determinable, but could be significant.
    In 1999, the Montana Supreme Court held in favor of several citizens' groups
      that the right to a clean and healthful environment is a fundamental right
      guaranteed by the Montana Constitution. The court's ruling could result
      in significantly more stringent environmental laws and regulations, as well
      as an increase in citizens' suits under Montana's environmental laws. The
      effect on PPL Montana of any such changes in laws or regulations or any
      such increase in legal actions is not currently determinable, but could
      be significant.
    Future cleanup or remediation work at sites currently under review, or
      at sites not currently identified, may result in material additional operating
      costs for PPL subsidiaries that cannot be estimated at this time.
    Asbestos (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    There have been increasing litigation claims throughout the U.S. based
      on exposure to asbestos against companies that manufacture or distribute
      asbestos products or that have these products on their premises. Certain
      of PPL's generation subsidiaries and certain of its energy services subsidiaries,
      such as those that have supplied, may have supplied or installed asbestos
      material in connection with the repair or installation of process piping
      and heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems, have been named as
      defendants in asbestos-related lawsuits. PPL cannot predict the outcome
      of these lawsuits or whether additional claims may be asserted against its
      subsidiaries in the future. PPL does not expect that the ultimate resolution
      of the current lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on its results
      of operations.
    Electric and Magnetic Fields (PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL
      Electric)
    Concerns have been expressed by some members of the public regarding the
      potential health effects of EMFs. These fields are emitted by all devices
      carrying electricity, including electric transmission and distribution lines
      and substation equipment. Government officials in the U.S. and the U.K.
      have focused attention on this issue. PPL and its subsidiaries support the
      current efforts to determine whether EMFs cause any human health problems
      and are taking steps to reduce EMFs, where practical, in the design of new
      transmission and distribution facilities. PPL is unable to predict what
      effect, if any, the EMF issue might have on its operations and facilities
      either in the U.S. or abroad, and the associated cost, or what, if any,
      liabilities it might incur related to the EMF issue.
    Lower Mt. Bethel (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    In August 2002, the Northampton County Court of Common Pleas issued a decision
      concerning the permissible noise levels from the Lower Mt. Bethel facility
      when it becomes operational. Specifically, the court's decision sets certain
      permissible noise levels required for plant operation. PPL appealed the
      court's decision to the Commonwealth Court, and an intervener in the lawsuit
      cross-appealed the court's decision. In May 2003, the Commonwealth Court
      remanded the case to the Court of Common Pleas for further findings of fact
      concerning the zoning application relating to the construction of the facility.
      In September 2003, the Court of Common Pleas ruled in PPL's favor while
      also reaffirming its decision on the noise levels, and the intervener appealed
      this ruling to the Commonwealth Court. In April 2004, the Commonwealth Court
      affirmed the decision of the Court of Common Pleas. The intervener has pending
      before the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania a Petition for Allowance of Appeal.
      The Lower Mt. Bethel facility was placed in service in May 2004.
    Environmental Matters - International(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    U.K.
    WPD's distribution businesses are subject to numerous regulatory and statutory
      requirements with respect to environmental matters. PPL believes that WPD
      has taken and continues to take measures to comply with the applicable laws
      and governmental regulations for the protection of the environment. There
      are no material legal or administrative proceedings pending against WPD
      with respect to environmental matters. See "Environmental Matters - Domestic
      - Electric and Magnetic Fields" for a discussion of EMFs.
    Latin America
    Certain of PPL's affiliates have electric distribution operations in Latin
      America. PPL believes that these affiliates have taken and continue to take
      measures to comply with the applicable laws and governmental regulations
      for the protection of the environment. There are no material legal or administrative
      proceedings pending against PPL's affiliates in Latin America with respect
      to environmental matters.
    Other
    Nuclear Insurance(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    PPL Susquehanna is a member of certain insurance programs which provide
      coverage for property damage to members' nuclear generating stations. Facilities
      at the Susquehanna station are insured against property damage losses up
      to $2.75 billion under these programs. PPL Susquehanna is also a member
      of an insurance program which provides insurance coverage for the cost of
      replacement power during prolonged outages of nuclear units caused by certain
      specified conditions. Under the property and replacement power insurance
      programs, PPL Susquehanna could be assessed retroactive premiums in the
      event of the insurers' adverse loss experience. At June 30, 2004, this maximum
      assessment was about $40 million.
    PPL Susquehanna's public liability for claims resulting from a nuclear
      incident at the Susquehanna station is limited to about $10.8 billion under
      provisions of The Price Anderson Amendments Act of 1988. PPL Susquehanna
      is protected against this liability by a combination of commercial insurance
      and an industry assessment program. In the event of a nuclear incident at
      any of the reactors covered by The Price Anderson Amendments Act of 1988,
      PPL Susquehanna could be assessed up to $201 million per incident, payable
      at $20 million per year.
    Guarantees and Other Assurances
    (PPL)
    PPL fully and unconditionally guarantees all of the debt securities of
      PPL Capital Funding, a wholly-owned financing subsidiary of PPL.

    Affiliate Trust(PPL)
    See Note 6 for a discussion of various transactions involving PPL Capital
      Funding subordinated notes that were held by PPL Capital Funding Trust I.
    PLR Contracts(PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    PPL Electric has power sales agreements with PPL EnergyPlus, effective
      January 1, 2002, to supply all of PPL Electric's PLR load through 2009.
      Under these contracts, PPL EnergyPlus provides electricity at the pre-determined
      capped prices that PPL Electric is authorized to charge its PLR customers.
      For the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, these purchases totaled
      $346 million and $327 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2004 and
      2003, these purchases totaled $756 million and $714 million. These purchases
      include nuclear decommissioning recovery and amortization of an up-front
      contract payment, and are included in the Statement of Income as "Energy
      purchases from affiliate" by PPL Electric, and as "Wholesale energy marketing
      to affiliates" revenues by PPL Energy Supply.
    Under one of the PLR contracts, PPL Electric is required to make performance
      assurance deposits with PPL EnergyPlus when the market price of electricity
      is less than the contract price by more than its contract collateral threshold.
      Conversely, PPL EnergyPlus is required to make performance assurance deposits
      with PPL Electric when the market price of electricity is greater than the
      contract price by more than its contract collateral threshold. At June 30,
      2004, PPL Energy Supply was required to provide PPL Electric with performance
      assurance of $300 million, the maximum amount required under the contract.
      PPL Energy Supply caused a $300 million letter of credit to be issued under
      its bank credit facilities to satisfy this collateral requirement.
    In 2001, PPL Electric made a $90 million up-front payment to PPL EnergyPlus
      in connection with the PLR contracts. The up-front payment is being amortized
      by both parties over the term of the PLR contracts. The unamortized balance
      of this payment and other payments under the contract was $64 million at
      June 30, 2004, and $70 million at December 31, 2003. This balance is reported
      on the Balance Sheet as "Prepayment on PLR energy supply from affiliate"
      by PPL Electric, and as "Deferred revenue on PLR energy supply to affiliate"
      by PPL Energy Supply.
    NUG Purchases(PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    PPL Electric has a reciprocal contract with PPL EnergyPlus to sell electricity
      purchased under contracts with NUGs. PPL Electric purchases electricity
      from the NUGs at contractual rates and then sells the electricity at the
      same price to PPL EnergyPlus. For the three months ended June 30, 2004 and
      2003, these NUG purchases totaled $39 million and $37 million. For the six
      months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, these NUG purchases totaled $76 million
      for both periods. These amounts are included in the Statement of Income
      as "Wholesale electric to affiliate" revenues by PPL Electric, and as "Energy
      purchases from affiliates" by PPL Energy Supply.
    Allocations of Corporate Service Costs(PPL Energy Supply and
      PPL Electric)
    PPL Services provides corporate functions such as financial, legal, human
      resources and information services. PPL Services bills the respective PPL
      subsidiaries for the cost of such services when they can be specifically
      identified. The cost of these services that is not directly charged to PPL
      subsidiaries is allocated to certain of the subsidiaries based on an average
      of the subsidiaries' relative invested capital, operation and maintenance
      expenses, and number of employees. PPL Services allocated the following
      charges to PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric:

    PPL Energy Supply had no notes receivable at June 30, 2004, and through
      its financing subsidiary, PPL Investment Corporation, had a $2 million note
      receivable from PPL Energy Funding at December 31, 2003, with interest equal
      to the one-month LIBOR plus 3%. Interest earned on loans to affiliates,
      included in "Other Income - net" on the Statement of Income, was $1 million
      and $4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, and
      was $1 million and $12 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and
      2003.
    In May 2004, PPL Energy Supply issued a $495 million note payable to an
      affiliate. The note matures in May 2006 with interest payable monthly in
      arrears at LIBOR plus 1%.
    Trademark Royalties(PPL Energy Supply)
    In the fourth quarter of 2002, a PPL subsidiary that owns PPL trademarks

11. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
    Fair Value Hedges(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    PPL and PPL Energy Supply enter into financial or physical contracts to
      hedge a portion of the fair value of firm commitments of forward electricity
      sales. These contracts range in maturity through 2006. Additionally, PPL
      and PPL Energy Supply enter into financial contracts to hedge fluctuations
      in market value of existing debt issuances. These contracts range in maturity
      through 2029.
    PPL and PPL Energy Supply did not recognize any gains or losses resulting
      from hedges of firm commitments that no longer qualified as fair value hedges
      for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 or 2003.
    PPL and PPL Energy Supply did not recognize any gains or losses resulting
      from the ineffective portion of fair value hedges for the three and six
      months ended June 30, 2004 or 2003.
    Cash Flow Hedges (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    PPL and PPL Energy Supply enter into financial and physical contracts,
      including forwards, futures and swaps, to hedge the price risk associated
      with electric, gas and oil commodities. These contracts range in maturity
      through 2010. Additionally, PPL and PPL Energy Supply enter into financial
      interest rate swap contracts to hedge interest expense associated with both
      existing and anticipated debt issuances. These swaps range in maturity through
      2014 for PPL and 2010 for PPL Energy Supply. PPL and PPL Energy Supply also
      enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge exchange rates associated
      with firm commitments denominated in foreign currencies and to hedge the
      net investment of foreign operations. These forward contracts range in maturity
      through 2028.
    Cash flow hedges may be discontinued if it is probable that the original
      forecasted transaction will not occur by the end of the originally specified
      time period. Due to the extinguishment of a consolidated trust's debt related
      to the Sundance and University Park generating facilities in June 2004,
      interest rate swaps that hedged the interest payments on the debt were terminated.
      Therefore, PPL and PPL Energy Supply reclassified a $3 million pre-tax loss
      from other comprehensive income to "Interest Expense" on the Statement
      of Income. PPL and PPL Energy Supply did not discontinue any other cash
      flow hedges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2004. For the
      three and six months ended June 30, 2003, PPL and PPL Energy Supply
      discontinued certain cash flow hedges that resulted in a pre-tax loss of
      $11 million being reclassified from other comprehensive income into earnings
      (reported in "Interest Expense" on the Statement of Income).
    Due to hedge ineffectiveness, PPL and PPL Energy Supply reclassified amounts
      that were not significant from other comprehensive income (reported in "Wholesale
      energy marketing" revenues and "Energy purchases" on the Statement of Income)
      for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004. PPL and PPL Energy Supply
      recorded a net loss of $1 million in earnings for the three and six months
      ended June 30, 2003.
    As of June 30, 2004, the deferred net loss, after tax, on derivative instruments
      in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" expected to be reclassified into
      earnings during the next twelve months was $10 million and $8 million for
      PPL and PPL Energy Supply.

        47Related Implementation Issues(PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    
    In June 2001, the FASB issued definitive guidance on DIG Issue C15, "Scope
      Exceptions: Normal Purchases and Normal Sales Exception for Certain Option-Type
      Contracts and Forward Contracts in Electricity." DIG Issue C15 provides
      additional guidance on the classification and application of derivative
      accounting rules relating to purchases and sales of electricity utilizing
      forward and option contracts. This guidance became effective as of July
      1, 2001. In December 2001, the FASB revised the guidance in DIG Issue C15,
      principally related to the eligibility of options for the normal purchases
      and normal sales exception. The revised guidance was effective April 1,
      2002. In November 2003, the FASB again revised the guidance in DIG Issue
      C15 to clarify the application of derivative accounting rules for contracts
      that may involve capacity. The guidance was effective January 1, 2004 for
      PPL. PPL had no financial statement impact from this revised guidance.
    PPL Energy Supply adopted the final provisions of EITF Issue 03-11, "Reporting
      Realized Gains and Losses on Derivative Instruments That Are Subject to
      FASB Statement No. 133 and Not 'Held for Trading Purposes' as Defined in
      Issue No. 02-3," prospectively as of October 1, 2003. As a result of the
      adoption, non-trading bilateral sales of electricity at major market delivery
      points are netted with purchases that offset the sales at those same delivery
      points. A major market delivery point is any delivery point with liquid
      pricing available. The impact on PPL and PPL Energy Supply of applying EITF
      Issue 03-11 was a reduction of $61 million in "Wholesale energy marketing"
      revenues and "Energy purchases" for the three months ended June 30, 2004,
      and a reduction of $142 million in "Wholesale energy marketing" revenues
      and "Energy purchases" for the six months ended June 30, 2004.
    Credit Concentration
    (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    PPL and PPL Energy Supply enter into contracts with many entities for the
      purchase and sale of energy. Most of these contracts are considered a normal
      part of doing business and, as such, the mark-to-market value of these contracts
      is not reflected in the financial statements. However, the mark-to-market
      value of these contracts is considered when committing to new business from
      a credit perspective.
    PPL and PPL Energy Supply have credit exposures to energy trading partners.
      The majority of these exposures were the mark-to-market value of multi-year
      contracts for energy sales and purchases. Therefore, if these counterparties
      fail to perform their obligations under such contracts, PPL and PPL Energy
      Supply would not experience an immediate financial loss, but would experience
      lower revenues or higher costs in future years to the extent that replacement
      sales or purchases could not be made at the same prices as those under the
      defaulted contracts.
    At June 30, 2004, PPL had a credit exposure of $274 million to energy trading
      partners. Eleven counterparties accounted for 66% of this exposure. No other
      individual counterparty accounted for more than 3% of the exposure. Eight
      of the eleven counterparties had an investment grade credit rating from
      Standard & Poor's Ratings Services (S&P). One counterparty was not
      rated by S&P. One non-investment grade counterparty of PPL Montana,
      NorthWestern, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. This contract
      has been affirmed by the bankruptcy court, and PPL Montana has been granted
      critical vendor status. NorthWestern has assumed the power supply agreements
      in its bankruptcy proceeding, and NorthWestern has remained current on all
      post-bankruptcy obligations with PPL Montana. See Note 8 under "Wholesale
      Energy Commitments" for additional information regarding the NorthWestern
      bankruptcy proceeding. The other non-investment grade counterparty is also
      current on its obligations under the existing contract.
    At June 30, 2004, PPL Energy Supply had a credit exposure of $268 million
      to energy trading partners. Eleven counterparties accounted for 67% of this
      exposure. No other individual counterparty accounted for more than 3% of
      the exposure. Eight of the eleven counterparties had an investment grade
      credit rating from S&P. One counterparty was not rated by S&P. One
      non-investment grade counterparty, NorthWestern, has filed for Chapter 11
      bankruptcy protection, as discussed above. The other non-investment grade
      counterparty is also current on its obligations under the existing contract.
    PPL and PPL Energy Supply have the right to request collateral from each
      of these counterparties, except for one government agency, in the event
      their credit ratings fall below investment grade. PPL Montana and NorthWestern
      have mutually agreed not to request collateral from each other while NorthWestern's
      Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding is pending. It is also the policy of PPL
      and PPL Energy Supply to enter into netting agreements with all of their
      counterparties to minimize credit exposure.
    (PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    In past years, PPL Energy Supply has had an exposure to PPL Electric under
      the long-term contract to provide PPL Electric's PLR load. However, increases
      in electricity prices during 2004 have reversed this position. At June 30,
      2004, PPL Electric had a mark-to-market exposure to PPL Energy Supply of
      $1.3 billion. In accordance with the terms of one of the PLR contracts,
      PPL Energy Supply provided PPL Electric with performance assurance through
      a letter of credit in the amount of $300 million, the maximum amount required
      under the contract. This is the only credit exposure for PPL Electric that
      has a mark-to-market element. No other counterparty accounts for more than
      1% of PPL Electric's total exposure.

        22Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    In December 2003, the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization
      Act of 2003 (the Act) was signed into law. The Act introduces a prescription
      drug benefit under Medicare Part D and also provides for a federal subsidy
      to sponsors of retiree health care benefit plans that provide an actuarially
      equivalent level of prescription drug benefits. The subsidy would be 28%
      of eligible drug costs for retirees that are over age 65 and covered under
      PPL's other postretirement benefit plans.
    In January 2004, the FASB issued FSP FAS 106-1, "Accounting and Disclosure
      Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and
      Modernization Act of 2003." FSP FAS 106-1 permitted companies to defer accounting
      for the effects of the Act, as the impact of the Act on the provisions of
      SFAS 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other than
      Pensions," had not been determined as of such time. PPL elected to defer
      recognizing the effects of the Act in accounting for its other postretirement
      benefit plans until authoritative guidance on the accounting for the federal
      subsidy was issued.
    In May 2004, the FASB issued FSP FAS 106-2, "Accounting and Disclosure
      Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and
      Modernization Act of 2003," which supersedes FSP FAS 106-1, details the
      accounting for the effects of the Act under SFAS 106 and requires certain
      disclosures. FSP FAS 106-2 is effective for the first interim or annual
      period beginning after June 15, 2004. Thus, the measures of PPL's accumulated
      postretirement benefit obligations and net postretirement benefit costs
      in the financial statements and accompanying notes do not reflect the effects
      of the Act.
    PPL has consulted with its independent actuary and determined that portions
      of certain of its other postretirement benefit plans provide benefits that
      may be actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D benefits, pending final
      detailed guidance from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
      For those plans that provide benefits that are at least actuarially equivalent
      to Medicare Part D, PPL will perform a remeasurement of its plan assets
      and accumulated benefit obligation as of July 1, 2004, resulting in an updated
      net periodic postretirement benefit cost for 2004, in accordance with the
      prospective adoption provisions allowed under FSP FAS 106-2. The impact
      of the Act on the postretirement benefit obligations and net postretirement
      benefit costs for PPL's other postretirement benefit plans is not expected
      to be material.

14. Asset Retirement Obligations
    (PPL and PPL Energy Supply)
    PPL and PPL Energy Supply adopted SFAS 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement
      Obligations," effective January 1, 2003. SFAS 143 addresses the accounting
      for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets.
      In connection with the adoption of SFAS 143, PPL and PPL Energy Supply recorded
      a cumulative effect of adoption that increased net income by $63 million.
    PPL and PPL Energy Supply's AROs are included in "Deferred Credits and
      Other Noncurrent Liabilities - Other" on the Balance Sheet. The changes
      in the carrying amounts of the AROs were as follows:

        247Funds in the nuclear decommissioning trust are legally restricted for purposes
      of settling PPL's and PPL Energy Supply's ARO related to the decommissioning
      of the Susquehanna station. PPL Electric collects authorized nuclear decommissioning
      costs through the CTC. These revenues are passed on to PPL EnergyPlus under
      the power supply agreements between PPL Electric and PPL EnergyPlus. Similarly,
      these revenues are passed on to PPL Susquehanna under a power supply agreement
      between PPL EnergyPlus and PPL Susquehanna. These revenues, less applicable
      taxes, are used to fund the nuclear decommissioning trust and can only be
      used for future decommissioning costs. The fair value of the nuclear decommissioning
      trust was $373 million as of June 30, 2004, and $357 million as of December
      31, 2003.
15. Workforce Reduction
    (PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    In an effort to improve operational efficiency and reduce costs, PPL and
      its subsidiaries commenced a workforce reduction assessment in June 2002.
      The program was broad-based and impacted all employee groups except certain
      positions that are key to providing high-quality service to PPL's electricity
      delivery customers.
    During 2002 and 2003, PPL recorded total charges of $84 million. PPL Energy
      Supply recorded charges of $41 million in 2002. During 2002 and 2003, PPL
      Electric recorded total charges of $42 million, including the charges associated
      with implementation of the Automated Meter Reading project. There was no
      impact to earnings for the periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.
    As of June 30, 2004, 539 employees of PPL subsidiaries were terminated.
      An additional 64 positions, which are primarily bargaining unit, are being
      evaluated for termination over the next six months, due to the timing of
      PPL Electric's Automated Meter Reading project and the displacement program
      under the bargaining unit contract. The program provides primarily for enhanced
      early retirement benefits and/or one-time special pension separation allowances
      based on an employee's age and years of service. These features of the program
      are paid from the PPL Retirement Plan pension trust and increased PPL's
      pension liabilities in 2002 and 2003 when recorded. Substantially all of
      the accrued non-pension benefits have been paid.
16. New Accounting Standards 
    FIN 46(R)(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    In December 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 (revised December
      2003), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of
      ARB No. 51," which is known as FIN 46(R) and replaces FIN 46, "Consolidation
      of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51." See Note
      22 to the Financial Statements contained in each Registrants' Annual Report
      to the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, for a discussion
      of FIN 46 and the impact of its adoption for certain entities. FIN 46(R)
      does not change the general consolidation concepts of FIN 46. Among other
      things, FIN 46(R) clarifies certain provisions of FIN 46 and provides additional
      scope exceptions for certain types of businesses. FIN 46(R) provides that
      a public entity that is not a small business issuer should apply the provisions
      of FIN 46(R) to all entities no later than the end of the first reporting
      period that ends after March 15, 2004. PPL and its subsidiaries adopted
      FIN 46(R) for all entities effective March 31, 2004. This adoption did not
      have a material impact on the results of PPL and its subsidiaries.
    EITF Issue 03-1 (PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    In March 2004, the FASB ratified certain consensus in EITF Issue 03-1,
      "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain
      Investments." EITF Issue 03-1 provides guidance for determining when
      an investment in certain debt and equity securities is considered impaired,
      whether that impairment is other than temporary and the measurement of an
      impairment loss. EITF Issue 03-1 also contains disclosure requirements related
      to information about impairments that have not been recognized as other
      than temporary as well as disclosure requirements for investments accounted
      for under the cost method. The recognition and measurement provisions of
      EITF Issue 03-1 are required to be applied to other-than-temporary impairment
      evaluations as of the balance sheet date in reporting periods beginning
      after June 15, 2004. The disclosure provisions related to cost method
      investments are effective for annual financial statements for fiscal years
      ending after June 15, 2004, while all other disclosure provisions were effective
      for annual financial statements for fiscal years ending after December 15,
      2003. PPL and its subsidiaries are in the process of evaluating the impact
      of adopting the recognition and measurement provisions of EITF Issue 03-1.
      The potential impact of adopting EITF Issue 03-1 for the third quarter of
      2004 is not yet determinable, but could be material. The impact of adoption
      is dependent upon the fair value of debt and equity securities at the time
      of the impairment assessment. PPL and its subsidiaries cannot predict the
      fair values. However, if EITF Issue 03-1 had been effective as of June 30,
      2004, PPL estimates that it would have incurred an other-than-temporary
      impairment charge of approximately $3 million, after tax.
    EITF Issue 03-6(PPL)
    In March 2004, the FASB ratified EITF Issue 03-6, "Participating Securities
      and the Two-Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128, 'Earnings per Share'."
      EITF Issue 03-6 addresses a number of issues regarding the calculation of
      basic EPS by companies that have issued securities other than common stock
      that participate in dividends and earnings, which are known as participating
      securities. EITF Issue 03-6 requires participating securities to be included
      in the calculation of basic EPS using the two-class method and provides
      guidance in applying the two-class method. EITF Issue 03-6 is effective
      for reporting periods beginning after March 31, 2004, and it requires restatement
      of prior periods. PPL adopted EITF Issue 03-6 during the second quarter
      of 2004. The initial adoption did not have an impact on PPL.
    EITF Issue 03-16(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL Electric)
    In March 2004, the FASB ratified EITF Issue 03-16, "Accounting for Investments
      in Limited Liability Companies." EITF Issue 03-16 provides that an investment
      in a limited liability company (LLC) that maintains a specific ownership
      account for each investor should be viewed similarly to an investment in
      a limited partnership for purposes of determining whether a noncontrolling
      interest in the LLC should be accounted for using the cost or equity method.
      EITF Issue 03-16 is effective for reporting periods beginning after June
      15, 2004, and is required to be applied as a change in accounting principle
      with a cumulative effect adjustment reflected in the period of adoption.
      PPL and its subsidiaries adopted EITF Issue 03-16 effective July 1, 2004.
      The adoption did not have a material impact on the results of PPL and its
      subsidiaries.
    FSP FAS 106-1 and FSP FAS 106-2(PPL, PPL Energy Supply and PPL
      Electric)
    See Note 12 for a discussion of FSP FAS 106-1 and FSP FAS 106-2, "Accounting

PPL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES



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



Overview

PPL is an energy and utility holding company with headquarters in Allentown,
  PA. See Item 1, "Business - Background" in PPL's Annual Report to the SEC on
  Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, for descriptions of PPL's major
  segments. See Exhibit 99 in Item 15 in PPL's Form 10-K for the current corporate
  organization structure. Through its subsidiaries, PPL is primarily engaged in
  the generation and marketing of electricity in two key markets - the northeastern
  and western U.S. - and in the delivery of electricity in Pennsylvania, the U.K.
  and Latin America. See Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
  Condition and Results of Operations," in PPL's Annual Report to the SEC on Form
  10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, for an overview of PPL's strategy
  and the risks and challenges that it faces in its business.

The information provided in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
  Condition and Results of Operations" should be read in conjunction with PPL's
  Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes.

Terms and abbreviations are explained in the glossary. Dollars are in millions,
  except per share data, unless otherwise noted.

Results of Operations

The following discussion, which explains significant changes in principal items
  on the Statement of Income, compares the three and six months ended June 30,
  2004, with the comparable periods in 2003.

WPD's results, as consolidated in PPL's Statement of Income, are impacted by
  changes in foreign currency exchange rates. For the three and six months ended
  June 30, 2004, as compared with the same periods in 2003, changes in foreign
  exchange rates increased WPD's portion of revenue and expense line items by
  about 13% for both periods.

The Statement of Income reflects the results of past operations and is not
  intended as any indication of future operating results. Future operating results
  will necessarily be affected by various and diverse factors and developments.
  Furthermore, because results for interim periods can be disproportionately influenced
  by various factors and developments and by seasonal variations, the results
  of operations for interim periods do not necessarily indicate results or trends
  for the year.

The period to period changes in earnings components, including domestic gross
  energy margins by region and income statement line items, are discussed in the
  balance of "Results of Operations."

PPL's future earnings could be, or will be, impacted by a number of key factors,
  including the following:

- Due to current electricity and natural gas price levels, there is a risk
    that PPL may be unable to recover its investment in new gas-fired generation
    facilities. Under GAAP, PPL does not believe that there is an impairment charge
    to be recorded for these facilities at this time. PPL is unable to predict
    the ultimate earnings impact of this issue, based upon future energy price
    levels, applicable accounting rules and other factors, but such impact may
    be material. In June 2004, a subsidiary of PPL Generation agreed to sell the
    450 MW Sundance power plant to the Arizona Public Service Company. If the
    necessary regulatory approvals can be obtained, the sale is expected to close
    in the first quarter of 2005. If it becomes likely that the required regulatory
    approvals will be obtained, PPL will reassess the Sundance assets for possible
    impairment. PPL estimates that an impairment charge of about $47 million after-tax,
    or $0.25 per share, could be recorded in 2004 or 2005 depending on the timing
    of regulatory approvals. See Note 7 to the Financial Statements for additional
    information on the potential Sundance sale.
- Market prices for electricity and fuel may negatively impact energy margins
    and earnings.
- PPL is unable to predict whether future impairments of goodwill may be required
    for its domestic and international investments. While no goodwill impairments
    were required based on the annual review performed in the fourth quarter of
    2003, future impairments may occur due to determinations of carrying value
    exceeding the fair value of these investments.
- PPL Electric has filed a proposal with the PUC to increase distribution
    rates by approximately $164 million and has notified the PUC that it plans
    to pass through to customers approximately $57 million in increased transmission
    charges that PPL Electric pays to PJM for transmission services. Transmission
    services are provided under the PJM Open Access Transmission Tariff, a rate
    schedule filed with and approved by the FERC. Under the federal "filed rate
    doctrine," such FERC-approved rates may be recovered from retail customers
    without a review of those rates by a state agency such as the PUC. In addition,
    PPL Electric's PUC-approved retail tariff permits the automatic pass-through
    of transmission charges. PPL Electric agreed to a cap on both of these charges
    until December 31, 2004, as part of its 1998 settlement under the PUC Final
    Order. Generation charges for customers who do not select an alternative energy
    supplier are fixed through 2009 and are not affected by these changes. The
    combination of the proposed distribution rate increase and transmission charge
    pass-through would result in an 8.1% increase over PPL Electric's present
    rates effective January 1, 2005. PPL Electric cannot predict the outcome of
    this proceeding.
- In July 2004, the EITF reached a tentative conclusion, under EITF Issue
    04-8, "The Effect of Contingently Convertible Debt on Diluted Earnings per
    Share," regarding the inclusion of contingently convertible debt securities
    in diluted EPS calculations. If the conclusion is finalized and ratified by
    the FASB in its current form, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2004, PPL
    potentially would be required to include an additional eight million shares
    of common stock associated with PPL Energy Supply's 2.625% Convertible Senior
    Notes due 2023 in its calculation of diluted EPS, for current and relevant
    prior periods, as if the securities were converted as of the date of issuance
    (May 2003), despite the fact that the securities contain a market price trigger
    for conversion that has not yet been attained. PPL currently estimates that
    the inclusion of the additional shares would decrease its diluted EPS by $0.11
    for 2004 and $0.10 for 2003. See Note 4 to the Financial Statements for a
    discussion of the convertible senior notes.
- Earnings in 2005 and beyond are expected to be impacted by a rate review
    of the delivery business of WPD (South West) and WPD (South Wales). PPL cannot
    predict the ultimate outcome of the rate review. See Note 8 to the Financial
    Statements for additional information.
- PPL has interests in two synthetic fuel facilities and receives tax credits
    pursuant to Section 29 of the Internal Revenue Code based on its sale of synthetic
    fuel to unaffiliated third-party purchasers. PPL has estimated that these
    facilities will contribute approximately $0.13 to its EPS in 2004, approximately
    $0.16 to its EPS in 2005 and 2006, and approximately $0.17 to its EPS in 2007.
    See Note 8 to the Financial Statements for a discussion of the IRS review
    of synthetic fuel production procedures.
- See Note 16 to the Financial Statements for new accounting standards, which
    have been issued but not yet adopted by PPL, that may impact future earnings.

Changes in Domestic Gross Energy Margins By Region

Domestic gross energy margins are generated through PPL's normal and hedge
  activities (non-trading), as well as trading activities. Non-trading margins
  are now discussed on a geographic basis rather than on an activity basis, as
  reported prior to 2004. A regional perspective more closely matches the internal
  view of how PPL's energy business is managed.

Eastern U.S.

Eastern U.S. non-trading margins were higher for the three and six months ended
  June 30, 2004, compared with the same periods in 2003, due to retail volumes
  increasing 5% and 4% and wholesale volumes increasing 1% and 2%. Retail volumes
  increased primarily due to the return of customers who previously shopped for
  energy in the competitive market in Pennsylvania. In addition, retail energy
  prices increased about 1% in accordance with the schedule established by the
  PUC's Final Order. Wholesale volumes increased primarily due to serving new
  competitive load obligations in Connecticut and New Jersey.

Northwestern U.S.

Northwestern U.S. non-trading margins were lower for the three and six months
  ended June 30, 2004, compared with the same periods in 2003, primarily due to
  a retroactive coal price increase caused by an unfavorable arbitration ruling.
  Incremental expense of $6 million was recorded during the three months ended
  June 30, 2004, as a result of the ruling, most of which related to years 2001
  to 2003. In addition, for the three months ended June 30, 2004, hydro generation
  was 16% lower than the same period in 2003 due to continuing drought conditions.
  For the six months ended June 30, 2004, a 4% increase in realized sales prices
  combined with a slight improvement in generation production contributed to lowering
  supply costs, that partially offset the retroactive coal price adjustment.

Southwestern U.S.

Southwestern U.S. non-trading margins were relatively flat for the three and
  six months ended June 30, 2004, compared with the same periods in 2003.

Net Energy Trading

PPL enters into certain energy contracts that meet the criteria of trading
  derivatives as defined by EITF Issue 02-3, "Issues Involved in Accounting for
  Derivative Contracts Held for Trading Purposes and Contracts Involved in Energy
  Trading and Risk Management Activities." These physical and financial contracts
  cover trading activity associated with electricity, gas and oil. The $7 million
  decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2004, compared with the same period
  in 2003, was primarily due to a decrease in realized and unrealized gains on
  electricity positions. The $7 million increase for the six months ended June
  30, 2004, compared with the same period in 2003, was due to a $3 million increase
  in electricity positions and a $4 million increase in gas and oil positions.
  The physical volumes associated with energy trading for the three months ended
  June 30, 2004, were 1,186 GWh and 1.8 Bcf, compared with 1,055 GWh and 3.4 Bcf
  for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Energy trading physical volumes for
  the six months ended June 30, 2004, were 2,180 GWh and 4.3 Bcf, compared with
  2,269 GWh and 7.2 Bcf for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

The increase in utility revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2004,
  compared with the same period in 2003, was primarily due to:

- higher PLR revenues due to higher energy and capacity rates in 2004 compared
    with 2003, and a 5% increase in volumes, in part due to the return of customers
    previously served by alternate suppliers;
- higher WPD revenues in the U.K. primarily due to the change in foreign currency
    exchange rates;
- higher revenues in Chile due to higher energy prices, which are a pass-through
    to customer rates, the change in foreign currency exchange rates, and a 5%
    increase in sales volumes;
- higher PPL Gas Utilities revenues, primarily due to the increase in natural
    gas prices which are a pass-through to customer rates, partially offset by
    a decrease in volumes; and
- higher PPL Electric delivery revenues resulting from a 4% increase in delivery
    sales, in part due to warmer weather in the second quarter of 2004 compared
    to 2003; partially offset by
- lower wholesale electric revenues due to the expiration of all PPL Electric
    municipal purchase power agreements at the end of January 2004.

The increase in utility revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared
  with the same period in 2003, was primarily due to:

- higher PLR revenues due to higher energy and capacity rates in 2004 compared
    with 2003, and a 4% increase in volumes, in part due to the return of customers
    previously served by alternate suppliers;
- higher PPL Gas Utilities revenues, primarily due to the increase in natural
    gas prices which are a pass-through to customer rates, partially offset by
    a decrease in volumes;
- higher WPD revenues in the U.K. primarily due to the change in foreign currency
    exchange rates; and
- higher revenues in Chile due to higher energy prices, which are a pass-through
    to customer rates, the change in foreign currency exchange rates, and a 7%
    increase in sales volumes; partially offset by
- lower wholesale electric revenues due to the expiration of all PPL Electric
    municipal purchase power agreements at the end of January 2004.

Energy Related Businesses

Energy related businesses contributed $24 million less to operating income
  for the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared with the same period in 2003.
  The decrease was attributable to the following:

- a $15 million loss on the sale of CGE (see Note 7 to the Financial Statements);
- a $4 million decrease due to WPD contract terminations in 2003 and 2004;
- a $4 million decrease from mechanical contracting and engineering subsidiaries
    due to the continued decline in capital spending in commercial and industrial
    markets, lower margins experienced in those markets, and cost overruns at
    two major projects;
- a $2 million decrease from Latin American subsidiaries due primarily to
    lower dividends received and lower construction sales; and
- a $2 million higher pre-tax operating loss from synfuel projects; partially
    offset by
- a $5 million operating loss on some Hyder properties in the first quarter
    of 2003, which were subsequently sold in April 2003.

Other Operation and Maintenance

The increase (decrease) in other operation and maintenance expenses was primarily
  due to:

The decreases in net pension income for the three and six months ended June
  30, 2004, compared with the same periods in 2003, were attributable to a reduction
  in the discount rate assumptions for PPL's domestic and international pension
  plans. Although financial markets have improved and PPL's domestic and international
  pension plans have experienced significant asset gains, interest rates on fixed-income
  obligations have continued to fall, requiring a further reduction in the discount
  rate assumption as of December 31, 2003. The reduction in the discount rate
  assumption has a significant impact on the measurement of plan obligations and
  net pension costs, which will result in PPL's recognition of lower levels of
  net pension income in 2004. See Note 12 to the Financial Statements for details
  of the costs of PPL's pension plans.

Depreciation

Taxes, Other Than Income

Taxes, other than income, increased by $4 million during the three months ended
  June 30, 2004, compared with the same period in 2003. The increase was primarily
  due to increases in WPD's property taxes, primarily related to the impact of
  changes in foreign currency exchange rates and an increase in property tax rates,
  as well as increases in domestic gross receipts tax and capital stock tax.

Taxes, other than income, decreased by $4 million during the six months ended
  June 30, 2004, compared with the same period in 2003. In the first quarter of
  2004, PPL Electric reversed a $14 million accrued liability for 1998 and 1999
  PURTA taxes that had been accrued based on potential exposure in the proceedings
  regarding the Susquehanna nuclear station tax assessment. The rights of the
  third party interveners to further appeal expired in 2004. This decrease was
  partially offset by increases in WPD's property taxes, primarily related to
  the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, adjustments recorded
  in 2003 and an increase in property tax rates, as well as increases in domestic
  gross receipts tax and capital stock tax.

Income Taxes

Income taxes decreased by $23 million and $20 million for the three and six
  months ended June 30, 2004, compared with the same periods in 2003. The decreases
  were due to:

- lower pre-tax book income, resulting in $2 million and $4 million decreases
    in income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004;
- differences in income recognition for tax purposes related to foreign affiliates,
    resulting in $17 million and $13 million reductions in income taxes for the
    three and six months ended June 30, 2004; and
- additional synthetic fuel tax credits recognized, resulting in $2 million
    and $3 million reductions in income taxes for the three and six months ended
    June 30, 2004.

See Note 2 to the Financial Statements for details on effective income tax
  rates.

Discontinued Operations

See "Discontinued Operations" in Note 7 to the Financial Statements for information
  regarding the losses recorded related to the sale of PPL Global's investment
  in a Latin American telecommunications company.

Cumulative Effect of a Change in Accounting Principle

PPL adopted SFAS 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations," effective
  January 1, 2003. SFAS 143 addresses the accounting for obligations associated
  with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets. Application of the new rules
  resulted in a cumulative effect of adoption that increased net income by $63
  million in 2003. See Note 21 to the Financial Statements in PPL's Annual Report
  to the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, for additional
  information.

Financial Condition

Liquidity

At June 30, 2004, PPL had $358 million of cash and cash equivalents and $65
  million of short-term debt. At December 31, 2003, PPL had $476 million of cash
  and cash equivalents and $56 million of short-term debt. The decrease in PPL's
  cash position was the net result of:

- the retirement of $938 million of long-term debt;
- $375 million of capital expenditures; and
- the payment of $142 million of common and preferred dividends; partially
    offset by
- $628 million of cash provided by operating activities;
- the issuance of $589 million of common stock;
- proceeds of $123 million from the sale of CGE; and
- the issuance of $15 million of long-term debt.

Rating Agency Decisions

Standard & Poor's Ratings Services (S&P), Moody's Investors Service,
  Inc. (Moody's) and Fitch Ratings (Fitch) periodically review the credit ratings
  on the debt and preferred securities of PPL and its subsidiaries. Based on their
  respective reviews, the rating agencies may make certain ratings revisions.

The ratings of S&P, Moody's and Fitch are not a recommendation to buy,
  sell or hold any securities of PPL or its subsidiaries. Such ratings may be
  subject to revisions or withdrawal by the agencies at any time and should be
  evaluated independently of each other and any other rating that may be assigned
  to their securities.

During the second quarter of 2004, S&P affirmed its BBB ratings on both
  PPL and PPL Energy Supply and revised its outlook on both entities from negative
  to stable. S&P also affirmed its BBB- rating on PPL Montana's Pass-Through
  Certificates due 2020 and revised its outlook from negative to stable. At the
  same time, S&P affirmed its A-/A2 rating and negative outlook on PPL Electric.
  Also, S&P indicated that the following ratings would remain unchanged following
  the aforementioned revision to PPL's outlook:

- WPDH Limited of BBB-/Negative/A-3;
- WPD (South West) of BBB+/Negative/A-2; and
- WPD (South Wales) of BBB+/Negative/A-2.

Subsequent Financings

In August 2004, PPL Electric began participating in an asset-backed commercial
  paper (ABCP) program through which PPL Electric obtains financing by selling
  and contributing to a subsidiary certain of its accounts receivable. The subsidiary
  pledges the accounts receivable to secure loans of up to an aggregate of $150
  million from a commercial paper conduit sponsored by a financial institution.
  PPL Electric expects to use the proceeds from the ABCP program for general corporate
  purposes and to cash collateralize letters of credit. See Note 6 to the Financial
  Statements for additional information.

Other

The pension plans of WPD are subject to formal actuarial valuations every three
  years, which are used to determine funding requirements. WPD's two principal
  plans were the subject of a formal actuarial valuation as of March 31, 2004.
  Preliminary valuations show an actuarial deficit of approximately £250
  million (approximately $454 million based on current exchange rates) that may
  need to be funded over approximately 14 years if markets and asset values do
  not recover. WPD expects to conclude the formal valuation process and agree
  on deficit contribution schedules with the Trustees of the plans by March 31,
  2005.

WPD believes that its internally generated cash flow, combined with its bank
  credit facilities, provides sufficient resources to finance its cash requirements
  and to maintain appropriate available liquidity.

For additional information on PPL's liquidity, see Item 7, "Management's Discussion
  and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," in PPL's Annual
  Report to the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

"Contracts realized or otherwise settled during the period" relate to contracts
  entered into prior to April 1 for the three months ended June 30 and contracts
  entered into prior to January 1 for the six months ended June 30. These amounts
  do not reflect intra-period contracts that were entered into and settled during
  the periods.

"Other changes in fair values" represents changes in the market value that
  have occurred for contracts that were outstanding at the end of each period.

The following chart segregates estimated fair values of PPL's commodity derivative
  contracts that qualify for hedge accounting treatment at June 30, 2004, based
  on whether the fair values are determined by quoted market prices or other more
  subjective means.

The "Prices actively quoted" category includes the fair value of exchange-traded
  natural gas futures contracts quoted on the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX).
  The NYMEX has currently quoted prices through 2010.

The "Prices provided by other external sources" category includes PPL's forward
  positions and options in natural gas and power and natural gas basis swaps at
  points for which over-the-counter (OTC) broker quotes are available. The fair
  value of electricity positions recorded above use the midpoint of the bid/ask
  spreads obtained through OTC brokers. On average, OTC quotes for forwards and
  swaps of natural gas and power extend one and two years into the future.

The "Prices based on models and other valuation methods" category includes
  the value of transactions for which an internally developed price curve was
  constructed as a result of the long-dated nature of the transaction or the illiquidity
  of the market point, or the value of options not quoted by an exchange or OTC
  broker. Additionally, this category includes "strip" transactions whose prices
  are obtained from external sources and then modeled to monthly prices as appropriate.

As of June 30, 2004, PPL estimated that a 10% adverse movement in market prices
  across all geographic areas and time periods would have decreased the value
  of the commodity contracts in its non-trading portfolio by approximately $174
  million. However, the change in the value of the non-trading portfolio would
  have been substantially offset by an increase in the value of the underlying
  commodity, the electricity generated, because these contracts serve to reduce
  the market risk inherent in the generation of electricity. Additionally, the
  value of PPL's unsold generation would be improved. Because PPL's electricity
  portfolio is generally in a net sales position, the adverse movement in prices
  is usually an increase in prices. Conversely, because PPL's commodity fuels
  portfolio is generally in a net purchase position, the adverse movement in prices
  is usually a decrease in prices. If both of these scenarios happened, the implied
  margins for the unsold generation would increase.

In accordance with its marketing strategy, PPL does not completely hedge its
  generation output or fuel requirements. PPL estimates that for its entire portfolio,
  including all generation and physical and financial energy positions, a 10%
  adverse change in power prices across all geographic zones and time periods
  would decrease expected 2004 gross margins by about $1 million. Similarly, a
  10% adverse movement in all fossil fuel prices would decrease 2004 gross margins
  by $4 million.

"Contracts realized or otherwise settled during the period" relate to trading
  contracts entered into prior to April 1 for the three months ended June 30 and
  contracts entered into prior to January 1 for the six months ended June 30.
  These amounts do not reflect intra-period contracts that were entered into and
  settled during the periods.

The "Fair value of new contracts at inception" is usually zero, because they
  are entered into at current market prices. However, when PPL enters into an
  option contract, a premium is paid or received.

"Other changes in fair values" represents changes in the market value that
  have occurred for contracts that were outstanding at the end of each period.

As of June 30, 2004, the net loss on PPL's trading activities expected to be
  recognized in earnings during the next three months is $3 million.

The following chart segregates estimated fair values of PPL's trading portfolio
  at June 30, 2004, based on whether the fair values are determined by quoted
  market prices or other more subjective means.

As of June 30, 2004, PPL estimated that a 10% adverse movement in market prices
  across all geographic areas and time periods would have decreased the value
  of the commodity contracts in its trading portfolio by $9 million.

Interest Rate Risk

PPL and its subsidiaries have issued debt to finance their operations. PPL
  utilizes various financial derivative products to adjust the mix of fixed and
  floating interest rates in its debt portfolio, adjust the duration of its debt
  portfolio and lock in U.S. Treasury rates (and interest rate spreads over treasuries)
  in anticipation of future financing, when appropriate. Risk limits under the
  risk management program are designed to balance risk exposure to volatility
  in interest expense and changes in the fair value of PPL's debt portfolio due
  to changes in the absolute level of interest rates.

At June 30, 2004, PPL's potential annual exposure to increased interest expense,
  based on a 10% increase in interest rates, was estimated at $5 million.

PPL is also exposed to changes in the fair value of its U.S. and international
  debt portfolios. At June 30, 2004, PPL estimated that its potential exposure
  to a change in the fair value of its debt portfolio, through a 10% adverse movement
  in interest rates, was $221 million.

PPL utilizes various risk management instruments to reduce its exposure to
  adverse interest rate movements for future anticipated financing. While PPL
  is exposed to changes in the fair value of these instruments, they are designed
  such that any economic loss in value should generally be offset by interest
  rate savings at the time the future anticipated financing is completed. At June
  30, 2004, PPL estimated that its potential exposure to a change in the fair
  value of these instruments, through a 10% adverse movement in interest rates,
  was approximately $7 million.

Foreign Currency Risk

PPL is exposed to foreign currency risk, primarily through investments in affiliates
  in Latin America and Europe. In addition, PPL may make purchases of equipment
  in currencies other than U.S. dollars.

PPL has adopted a foreign currency risk management program designed to hedge
  certain foreign currency exposures, including firm commitments, recognized assets
  or liabilities and net investments. In addition, PPL enters into financial instruments
  to protect against foreign currency translation risk.

PPL executed forward sale transactions for £17.7 million to hedge a portion
  of its net investment in WPDH Limited. The estimated value of these agreements
  as of June 30, 2004, was $5 million, being the amount PPL would pay to terminate
  the transactions.

To protect expected income in British pounds sterling, PPL entered into average
  rate forward sales contracts for £29 million. In conjunction with these
  forward contracts, PPL executed average rate purchase options of £20 million
  to mitigate the liquidity risk inherent in the average rate forwards. At June
  30, 2004, the market value of these positions, representing the amount PPL would
  receive to terminate them, was insignificant.

To protect expected income in Chilean pesos, PPL entered into average rate
  forward sales contracts for 5.5 billion Chilean pesos. At June 30, 2004, the
  market value of these positions, representing the amount PPL would receive to
  terminate them, was insignificant.

WPDH Limited held a net position in cross-currency swaps totaling $1.3 billion
  to hedge the interest payments and value of its U.S. dollar-denominated bonds.
  The estimated value of this position at June 30, 2004, being the amount PPL
  would pay to terminate it, including accrued interest, was $197 million.

On the Statement of Income, gains and losses associated with hedges of interest
  payments denominated in foreign currencies are reflected in "Interest Expense."
  Gains and losses associated with the purchase of equipment are reflected in
  "Depreciation." Gains and losses associated with net investment hedges remain
  in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" on the Balance Sheet until the investment
  is disposed.

Nuclear Decommissioning Fund - Securities Price Risk

In connection with certain NRC requirements, PPL Susquehanna maintains trust
  funds to fund certain costs of decommissioning the Susquehanna station. As of
  June 30, 2004, these funds were invested primarily in domestic equity securities
  and fixed-rate, fixed-income securities and are reflected at fair value on PPL's
  Balance Sheet. The mix of securities is designed to provide returns to be used
  to fund Susquehanna's decommissioning and to compensate for inflationary increases
  in decommissioning costs. However, the equity securities included in the trusts
  are exposed to price fluctuation in equity markets, and the values of fixed-rate,
  fixed-income securities are exposed to changes in interest rates. PPL Susquehanna
  actively monitors the investment performance and periodically reviews asset
  allocation in accordance with its nuclear decommissioning trust policy statement.
  At June 30, 2004, a hypothetical 10% increase in interest rates and a 10% decrease
  in equity prices would have resulted in an estimated $27 million reduction in
  the fair value of the trust assets.

PPL Electric's 1998 restructuring settlement agreement provides for the collection
  of authorized nuclear decommissioning costs through the CTC. Additionally, PPL
  Electric is permitted to seek recovery from customers of up to 96% of certain
  increases in these costs. Under the power supply agreements between PPL Electric
  and PPL EnergyPlus, these revenues are passed on to PPL EnergyPlus. Similarly,
  these revenues are passed on to PPL Susquehanna under a power supply agreement
  between PPL EnergyPlus and PPL Susquehanna. These revenues are used to fund
  the trusts.

Credit Risk

Credit risk relates to the risk of loss that PPL would incur as a result of
  non-performance by counterparties of their contractual obligations. PPL maintains
  credit policies and procedures with respect to counterparties (including requirements
  that counterparties maintain certain credit ratings criteria) and requires other
  assurances in the form of credit support or collateral in certain circumstances
  in order to limit counterparty credit risk. However, PPL has concentrations
  of suppliers and customers among electric utilities, natural gas distribution
  companies and other energy marketing and trading companies. These concentrations
  of counterparties may impact PPL's overall exposure to credit risk, either positively
  or negatively, in that counterparties may be similarly affected by changes in
  economic, regulatory or other conditions. PPL records certain non-performance
  reserves to reflect the probability that a counterparty with contracts that
  are out of the money (from the counterparty's standpoint) will default in its
  performance, in which case PPL would have to sell into a lower-priced market
  or purchase from a higher-priced market. These reserves are reflected in the
  fair value of assets recorded in "Price risk management assets" on the Balance
  Sheet. PPL also records reserves to reflect the probability that a counterparty
  will not make payments for deliveries PPL has made but not yet billed. These
  reserves are reflected in "Unbilled revenues" on the Balance Sheet. PPL has
  also established a reserve with respect to certain sales to the California ISO
  for which PPL has not yet been paid, as well as a reserve related to PPL's exposure
  as a result of the Enron bankruptcy, which are reflected in "Accounts receivable"
  on the Balance Sheet. See Note 8 to the Financial Statements for additional
  information on the sales to the California ISO.

Related Party Transactions

PPL is not aware of any material ownership interests or operating responsibility
  by senior management of PPL, PPL Energy Supply or PPL Electric in outside partnerships,
  including leasing transactions with variable interest entities, or other entities
  doing business with PPL.

Acquisitions, Development and Divestitures

From time to time, PPL and its subsidiaries are involved in negotiations with
  third parties regarding acquisitions, joint ventures and other arrangements
  which may or may not result in definitive agreements. See Note 7 to the Financial
  Statements for information regarding recent acquisitions and development activities.

At June 30, 2004, PPL had domestic generation projects under development which
  are expected to provide 218 MW of additional generation.

PPL is continuously reexamining development projects based on market conditions
  and other factors to determine whether to proceed with these projects, sell
  them, cancel them, expand them, execute tolling agreements or pursue other opportunities.

Environmental Matters

See Note 8 to the Financial Statements for a discussion of environmental matters.

New Accounting Standards

See Note 16 to the Financial Statements for information on new accounting standards
  adopted in 2004 or pending adoption.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

PPL's financial condition and results of operations are impacted by the methods,
  assumptions and estimates used in the application of critical accounting policies.
  The following accounting policies are particularly important to the financial
  condition or results of operations of PPL, and require estimates or other judgments
  of matters inherently uncertain: price risk management, pension and other postretirement
  benefits, asset impairment, leasing, loss contingencies and asset retirement
  obligations.

See Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
  Results of Operations," in PPL's Annual Report to the SEC on Form 10-K for the
  year ended December 31, 2003, for a discussion of each critical accounting policy.
  PPL's senior management has reviewed these critical accounting policies, and
  the estimates and assumptions regarding them, with its Audit Committee. In addition,
  PPL's senior management reviewed the Form 10-K disclosures regarding the application
  of these critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee.

PPL ENERGY SUPPLY, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

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



Overview

PPL Energy Supply is an energy company with headquarters in Allentown, PA.
  See Item 1, "Business - Background" in PPL Energy Supply's Annual Report to
  the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, for a description
  of PPL Energy Supply's domestic and international businesses. See Exhibit 99
  in Item 15 in PPL Energy Supply's Form 10-K for a listing of its principal subsidiaries.
  Through its subsidiaries, PPL Energy Supply is primarily engaged in the generation
  and marketing of electricity in two key markets - the northeastern and western
  U.S. - and in the delivery of electricity in the U.K. and Latin America. See
  Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
  of Operations," in PPL Energy Supply's Annual Report to the SEC on Form 10-K
  for the year ended December 31, 2003, for an overview of PPL Energy Supply's
  strategy and the risks and challenges that it faces in its business.

The information provided in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
  Condition and Results of Operations" should be read in conjunction with PPL
  Energy Supply's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying
  Notes.

Terms and abbreviations are explained in the glossary. Dollars are in millions
  unless otherwise noted.

Results of Operations

The following discussion, which explains significant changes in principal items
  on the Statement of Income, compares the three and six months ended June 30,
  2004, with the comparable periods in 2003.

WPD's results, as consolidated in PPL Energy Supply's Statement of Income,
  are impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. For the three and
  six months ended June 30, 2004, as compared with the same periods in 2003, changes
  in foreign exchange rates increased WPD's portion of revenue and expense line
  items by about 13% for both periods.

The Statement of Income reflects the results of past operations and is not
  intended as any indication of future operating results. Future operating results
  will necessarily be affected by various and diverse factors and developments.
  Furthermore, because results for interim periods can be disproportionately influenced
  by various factors and developments and by seasonal variations, the results
  of operations for interim periods do not necessarily indicate results or trends
  for the year.

The period to period changes in earnings components, including domestic gross
  energy margins by region and income statement line items, are discussed in the
  balance of "Results of Operations."

PPL Energy Supply's future earnings could be, or will be, impacted by a number
  of key factors, including the following:

- Due to current electricity and natural gas price levels, there is a risk
    that PPL Energy Supply may be unable to recover its investment in new gas-fired
    generation facilities. Under GAAP, PPL Energy Supply does not believe that
    there is an impairment charge to be recorded for these facilities at this
    time. PPL Energy Supply is unable to predict the ultimate earnings impact
    of this issue, based upon future energy price levels, applicable accounting
    rules and other factors, but such impact may be material. In June 2004, a
    subsidiary of PPL Generation agreed to sell the 450 MW Sundance power plant
    to the Arizona Public Service Company. If the necessary regulatory approvals
    can be obtained, the sale is expected to close in the first quarter of 2005.
    If it becomes likely that the required regulatory approvals will be obtained,
    PPL Energy Supply will reassess the Sundance assets for possible impairment.
    PPL Energy Supply estimates that an impairment charge of about $47 million
    after-tax could be recorded in 2004 or 2005 depending on the timing of regulatory
    approvals. See Note 7 to the Financial Statements for additional information
    on the potential Sundance sale.
- Market prices for electricity and fuel may negatively impact energy margins
    and earnings.
- PPL Energy Supply is unable to predict whether future impairments of goodwill
    may be required for its domestic and international investments. While no goodwill
    impairments were required based on the annual review performed in the fourth
    quarter of 2003, future impairments may occur due to determinations of carrying
    value exceeding the fair value of these investments.
- Earnings in 2005 and beyond are expected to be impacted by a rate review
    of the delivery business of WPD (South West) and WPD (South Wales). PPL Energy
    Supply cannot predict the ultimate outcome of the rate review. See Note 8
    to the Financial Statements for additional information.
- PPL Energy Supply has interests in two synthetic fuel facilities and receives
    tax credits pursuant to Section 29 of the Internal Revenue Code based on its
    sale of synthetic fuel to unaffiliated third-party purchasers. PPL Energy
    Supply has estimated that these facilities will contribute approximately $23
    million to earnings in 2004, approximately $30 million to earnings in 2005
    and 2006, and approximately $32 million to earnings in 2007. See Note 8 to
    the Financial Statements for a discussion of the IRS review of synthetic fuel
    production procedures.
- See Note 16 to the Financial Statements for new accounting standards that
    may impact future earnings.

Changes in Domestic Gross Energy Margins By Region

Domestic gross energy margins are generated through PPL's normal and hedge
  activities (non-trading), as well as trading activities. Non-trading margins
  are now discussed on a geographic basis rather than on an activity basis, as
  reported prior to 2004. A regional perspective more closely matches the internal
  view of how PPL's energy business is managed.

Eastern U.S.

Eastern U.S. non-trading margins were higher for the three and six months ended
  June 30, 2004, compared with the same periods in 2003, due to retail volumes
  increasing 5% and 4% and wholesale volumes increasing 1% and 2%. Retail volumes
  increased primarily due to the return of customers who previously shopped for
  energy in the competitive market in Pennsylvania. In addition, retail energy
  prices increased about 1% in accordance with the schedule established by the
  PUC's Final Order. Wholesale volumes increased primarily due to serving new
  competitive load obligations in Connecticut and New Jersey.

Northwestern U.S.

Northwestern U.S. non-trading margins were lower for the three and six months
  ended June 30, 2004, compared with the same periods in 2003, primarily due to
  a retroactive coal price increase caused by an unfavorable arbitration ruling.
  Incremental expense of $6 million was recorded during the three months ended
  June 30, 2004, as a result of the ruling, most of which related to years 2001
  to 2003. In addition, for the three months ended June 30, 2004, hydro generation
  was 16% lower than the same period in 2003 due to continuing drought conditions.
  For the six months ended June 30, 2004, a 4% increase in realized sales prices
  combined with a slight improvement in generation production contributed to lowering
  supply costs, that partially offset the retroactive coal price adjustment.

Southwestern U.S.

Southwestern U.S. non-trading margins were relatively flat for the three and
  six months ended June 30, 2004, compared with the same periods in 2003.

Net Energy Trading

PPL enters into certain energy contracts that meet the criteria of trading
  derivatives as defined by EITF Issue 02-3, "Issues Involved in Accounting for
  Derivative Contracts Held for Trading Purposes and Contracts Involved in Energy
  Trading and Risk Management Activities." These physical and financial contracts
  cover trading activity associated with electricity, gas and oil. The $7 million
  decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2004, compared with the same period
  in 2003, was primarily due to a decrease in realized and unrealized gains on
  electricity positions. The $7 million increase for the six months ended June
  30, 2004, compared with the same period in 2003, was due to a $3 million increase
  in electricity positions and a $4 million increase in gas and oil positions.
  The physical volumes associated with energy trading for the three months ended
  June 30, 2004, were 1,186 GWh and 1.8 Bcf, compared with 1,055 GWh and 3.4 Bcf
  for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Energy trading physical volumes for
  the six months ended June 30, 2004, were 2,180 GWh and 4.3 Bcf, compared with
  2,269 GWh and 7.2 Bcf for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

Utility Revenues

The increases in utility revenues were attributable to the following:

The increases for both periods were primarily due to:

- higher WPD revenues in the U.K. primarily due to the change in foreign currency
    exchange rates; and
- higher revenues in Chile due to higher energy prices, which are a pass-through
    to customer rates, the change in foreign currency exchange rates, and increases
    in sales volumes of 5% and 7% for the three and six months ended June 30,
    2004, compared with the same periods in 2003; partially offset by
- lower revenues in El Salvador due to lower energy prices, despite higher
    sales volumes.

Energy Related Businesses

Energy related businesses contributed $23 million less to operating income
  for the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared with the same period in 2003.
  The decrease was attributable to the following:

- a $15 million loss on the sale of CGE (see Note 7 to the Financial Statements);
- a $4 million decrease due to WPD contract terminations in 2003 and 2004;
- a $4 million decrease from mechanical contracting and engineering subsidiaries
    due to the continued decline in capital spending in commercial and industrial
    markets, lower margins experienced in those markets, and cost overruns at
    two major projects;
- a $2 million decrease from Latin American subsidiaries due primarily to
    lower dividends received and lower construction sales; and
- a $2 million higher pre-tax operating loss from synfuel projects; partially
    offset by
- a $5 million operating loss on some Hyder properties in the first quarter
    of 2003, which were subsequently sold in April 2003.

Other Operation and Maintenance

The increase (decrease) in other operation and maintenance expenses was primarily
  due to:

The decreases in net pension income for the three and six months ended June
  30, 2004, compared with the same periods in 2003, were attributable to a reduction
  in the discount rate assumptions for PPL Energy Supply's domestic and international
  pension plans. Although financial markets have improved and PPL Energy Supply's
  domestic and international pension plans have experienced significant asset
  gains, interest rates on fixed-income obligations have continued to fall, requiring
  a further reduction in the discount rate assumption as of December 31, 2003.
  The reduction in the discount rate assumption has a significant impact on the
  measurement of plan obligations and net pension costs, which will result in
  PPL Energy Supply's recognition of lower levels of net pension income in 2004.
  See Note 12 to the Financial Statements for details of the costs of PPL Energy
  Supply's pension plans.

Taxes, Other Than Income

Taxes, other than income, increased by $7 million during the six months ended
  June 30, 2004, compared with the same period in 2003. The increase was primarily
  due to an increase in domestic capital stock tax of $3 million and increases
  in WPD's property taxes of $5 million, primarily related to the impact of changes
  of foreign currency exchange rates, adjustments recorded in 2003 and an increase
  in property tax rates.

Income Taxes

Income taxes decreased by $22 million and $21 million for the three and six
  months ended June 30, 2004, compared with the same periods in 2003. The decreases
  were due to:

- lower pre-tax book income, resulting in a $4 million decrease in income
    taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2004;
- differences in income recognition for tax purposes related to foreign affiliates,
    resulting in $17 million and $13 million reductions in income taxes for the
    three and six months ended June 30, 2004; and
- additional synthetic fuel tax credits recognized, resulting in $2 million
    and $3 million reductions in income taxes for the three and six months ended
    June 30, 2004.

See Note 2 to the Financial Statements for details on effective income tax
  rates.

Discontinued Operations

See "Discontinued Operations" in Note 7 to the Financial Statements for information
  regarding the losses recorded related to the sale of PPL Global's investment
  in a Latin American telecommunications company.

Cumulative Effect of a Change in Accounting Principle

PPL Energy Supply adopted SFAS 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations,"
  effective January 1, 2003. SFAS 143 addresses the accounting for obligations
  associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets. Application of
  the new rules resulted in a cumulative effect of adoption that increased net
  income by $63 million in 2003. See Note 21 to the Financial Statements in PPL
  Energy Supply's Annual Report to the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
  2003, for additional information.

Financial Condition

Liquidity

At June 30, 2004, PPL Energy Supply had $222 million of cash and cash equivalents
  and no short-term debt. At December 31, 2003, PPL Energy Supply had $227 million
  of cash and cash equivalents and $56 million of short-term debt. The decrease
  in PPL Energy Supply's cash position was the net result of:

- the retirement of $663 million of long-term debt;
- $264 million of capital expenditures;
- the distribution to Member of $124 million; and
- a decrease of $61 million in short-term debt; partially offset by
- $438 million of cash provided by operating activities;
- proceeds of $495 million from a note payable to an affiliate;
- proceeds of $123 million from the sale of CGE;
- the contribution from Member of $58 million; and
- the issuance of $15 million of long-term debt.

Rating Agency Decisions

Standard & Poor's Ratings Services (S&P), Moody's Investors Service,
  Inc. (Moody's) and Fitch Ratings (Fitch) periodically review the credit ratings
  on the debt and preferred securities of PPL Energy Supply and its subsidiaries.
  Based on their respective reviews, the rating agencies may make certain ratings
  revisions.

The ratings of S&P, Moody's and Fitch are not a recommendation to buy,
  sell or hold any securities of PPL Energy Supply or its subsidiaries. Such ratings
  may be subject to revisions or withdrawal by the agencies at any time and should
  be evaluated independently of each other and any other rating that may be assigned
  to their securities.

During the second quarter of 2004, S&P affirmed its BBB ratings on both
  PPL and PPL Energy Supply and revised its outlook on both entities from negative
  to stable. S&P also affirmed its BBB- rating on PPL Montana's Pass-Through
  Certificates due 2020 and revised its outlook from negative to stable. Also,
  S&P indicated that the following ratings would remain unchanged following
  the aforementioned revision to PPL Energy Supply's outlook:

- WPDH Limited of BBB-/Negative/A-3;
- WPD (South West) of BBB+/Negative/A-2; and
- WPD (South Wales) of BBB+/Negative/A-2.

Other

The pension plans of WPD are subject to formal actuarial valuations every three
  years, which are used to determine funding requirements. WPD's two principal
  plans were the subject of a formal actuarial valuation as of March 31, 2004.
  Preliminary valuations show an actuarial deficit of approximately £250
  million (approximately $454 million based on current exchange rates) that may
  need to be funded over approximately 14 years if markets and asset values do
  not recover. WPD expects to conclude the formal valuation process and agree
  on deficit contribution schedules with the Trustees of the plans by March 31,
  2005.

WPD believes that its internally generated cash flow, combined with its bank
  credit facilities, provides sufficient resources to finance its cash requirements
  and to maintain appropriate available liquidity.

For additional information on PPL Energy Supply's liquidity, see Item 7, "Management's
  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," in

The "Prices actively quoted" category includes the fair value of exchange-traded
  natural gas futures contracts quoted on the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX).
  The NYMEX has currently quoted prices through 2010.

The "Prices provided by other external sources" category includes PPL Energy
  Supply's forward positions and options in natural gas and power and natural
  gas basis swaps at points for which over-the-counter (OTC) broker quotes are
  available. The fair value of electricity positions recorded above use the midpoint
  of the bid/ask spreads obtained through OTC brokers. On average, OTC quotes
  for forwards and swaps of natural gas and power extend one and two years into
  the future.

The "Prices based on models and other valuation methods" category includes
  the value of transactions for which an internally developed price curve was
  constructed as a result of the long-dated nature of the transaction or the illiquidity
  of the market point, or the value of options not quoted by an exchange or OTC
  broker. Additionally, this category includes "strip" transactions whose prices
  are obtained from external sources and then modeled to monthly prices as appropriate.

As of June 30, 2004, PPL Energy Supply estimated that a 10% adverse movement
  in market prices across all geographic areas and time periods would have decreased
  the value of the commodity contracts in its non-trading portfolio by approximately
  $174 million. However, the change in the value of the non-trading portfolio
  would have been substantially offset by an increase in the value of the underlying
  commodity, the electricity generated, because these contracts serve to reduce
  the market risk inherent in the generation of electricity. Additionally, the
  value of PPL Energy Supply's unsold generation would be improved. Because PPL
  Energy Supply's electricity portfolio is generally in a net sales position,
  the adverse movement in prices is usually an increase in prices. Conversely,
  because PPL Energy Supply's commodity fuels portfolio is generally in a net
  purchase position, the adverse movement in prices is usually a decrease in prices.
  If both of these scenarios happened, the implied margins for the unsold generation
  would increase.

In accordance with its marketing strategy, PPL Energy Supply does not completely
  hedge its generation output or fuel requirements. PPL Energy Supply estimates
  that for its entire portfolio, including all generation and physical and financial
  energy positions, a 10% adverse change in power prices across all geographic
  zones and time periods would decrease expected 2004 gross margins by about $1
  million. Similarly, a 10% adverse movement in all fossil fuel prices would decrease
  2004 gross margins by $4 million.

"Contracts realized or otherwise settled during the period" relate to trading
  contracts entered into prior to April 1 for the three months ended June 30 and
  contracts entered into prior to January 1 for the six months ended June 30.
  These amounts do not reflect intra-period contracts that were entered into and
  settled during the periods.

The "Fair value of new contracts at inception" is usually zero, because they
  are entered into at current market prices. However, when PPL Energy Supply enters
  into an option contract, a premium is paid or received.

"Other changes in fair values" represents changes in the market value that
  have occurred for contracts that were outstanding at the end of each period.

As of June 30, 2004, the net loss on PPL Energy Supply's trading activities
  expected to be recognized in earnings during the next three months is $3 million.

The following chart segregates estimated fair values of PPL Energy Supply's
  trading portfolio at June 30, 2004, based on whether the fair values are determined
  by quoted market prices or other more subjective means.

As of June 30, 2004, PPL Energy Supply estimated that a 10% adverse movement
  in market prices across all geographic areas and time periods would have decreased
  the value of the commodity contracts in its trading portfolio by $9 million.

Interest Rate Risk

PPL Energy Supply and its subsidiaries have issued debt to finance their operations.
  PPL manages interest rate risk for PPL Energy Supply by using various financial
  derivative products to adjust the mix of fixed and floating interest rates in
  its debt portfolio, adjust the duration of its debt portfolio and lock in U.S.
  Treasury rates (and interest rate spreads over treasuries) in anticipation of
  future financing, when appropriate. Risk limits under the risk management program
  are designed to balance risk exposure to volatility in interest expense and
  changes in the fair value of PPL Energy Supply's debt portfolio due to changes
  in the absolute level of interest rates.

At June 30, 2004, PPL Energy Supply's potential annual exposure to increased
  interest expense, based on a 10% increase in interest rates, was insignificant.

PPL Energy Supply is also exposed to changes in the fair value of its U.S.
  and international debt portfolio. At June 30, 2004, PPL Energy Supply estimated
  that its potential exposure to a change in the fair value of its debt portfolio,
  through a 10% adverse movement in interest rates, was $164 million.

PPL and PPL Energy Supply utilize various risk management instruments to reduce
  PPL Energy Supply's exposure to adverse interest rate movements for future anticipated
  financings. While PPL Energy Supply is exposed to changes in the fair value
  of these instruments, they are designed such that any economic loss in value
  should generally be offset by interest rate savings at the time the future anticipated
  financing is completed. At June 30, 2004, PPL Energy Supply estimated that its
  potential exposure to a change in the fair value of these instruments, through
  a 10% adverse movement in interest rates, was immaterial.

Foreign Currency Risk

PPL Energy Supply is exposed to foreign currency risk, primarily through investments
  in affiliates in Latin America and Europe. In addition, PPL Energy Supply may
  make purchases of equipment in currencies other than U.S. dollars.

PPL has adopted a foreign currency risk management program designed to hedge
  certain foreign currency exposures, including firm commitments, recognized assets
  or liabilities and net investments. In addition, PPL enters into financial instruments
  to protect against foreign currency translation risk.

PPL executed forward sale transactions for £17.7 million to hedge a portion
  of its net investment in WPDH Limited. The estimated value of these agreements
  as of June 30, 2004, was $5 million, being the amount PPL would pay to terminate
  the transactions.

To protect expected income in British pounds sterling, PPL entered into average
  rate forward sales contracts for £29 million. In conjunction with these
  forward contracts, PPL executed average rate purchase options of £20 million
  to mitigate the liquidity risk inherent in the average rate forwards. At June
  30, 2004, the market value of these positions, representing the amount PPL would
  receive to terminate them, was insignificant.

To protect expected income in Chilean pesos, PPL entered into average rate
  forward sales contracts for 5.5 billion Chilean pesos. At June 30, 2004, the
  market value of these positions, representing the amount PPL would receive to
  terminate them, was insignificant.

WPDH Limited held a net position in cross-currency swaps totaling $1.3 billion
  to hedge the interest payments and value of its U.S. dollar-denominated bonds.
  The estimated value of this position at June 30, 2004, being the amount PPL
  would pay to terminate it, including accrued interest, was $197 million.

On the Statement of Income, gains and losses associated with hedges of interest
  payments denominated in foreign currencies are reflected in "Interest Expense."
  Gains and losses associated with the purchase of equipment are reflected in
  "Depreciation." Gains and losses associated with net investment hedges remain
  in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Balance Sheet until the investment
  is disposed.

Nuclear Decommissioning Fund - Securities Price Risk

In connection with certain NRC requirements, PPL Susquehanna maintains trust
  funds to fund certain costs of decommissioning the Susquehanna station. As of
  June 30, 2004, these funds were invested primarily in domestic equity securities
  and fixed-rate, fixed-income securities and are reflected at fair value on PPL
  Energy Supply's Balance Sheet. The mix of securities is designed to provide
  returns to be used to fund Susquehanna's decommissioning and to compensate for
  inflationary increases in decommissioning costs. However, the equity securities
  included in the trusts are exposed to price fluctuation in equity markets, and
  the values of fixed-rate, fixed-income securities are exposed to changes in
  interest rates. PPL Susquehanna actively monitors the investment performance
  and periodically reviews asset allocation in accordance with its nuclear decommissioning
  trust policy statement. At June 30, 2004, a hypothetical 10% increase in interest
  rates and a 10% decrease in equity prices would have resulted in an estimated
  $27 million reduction in the fair value of the trust assets.

PPL Electric's 1998 restructuring settlement agreement provides for the collection
  of authorized nuclear decommissioning costs through the CTC. Additionally, PPL
  Electric is permitted to seek recovery from customers of up to 96% of certain
  increases in these costs. Under the power supply agreements between PPL Electric
  and PPL EnergyPlus, these revenues are passed on to PPL EnergyPlus. Similarly,
  these revenues are passed on to PPL Susquehanna under a power supply agreement
  between PPL EnergyPlus and PPL Susquehanna. These revenues are used to fund
  the trusts.

Credit Risk

Credit risk relates to the risk of loss that PPL Energy Supply would incur
  as a result of non-performance by counterparties of their contractual obligations.
  PPL Energy Supply maintains credit policies and procedures with respect to counterparties
  (including requirements that counterparties maintain certain credit ratings
  criteria) and requires other assurances in the form of credit support or collateral
  in certain circumstances in order to limit counterparty credit risk. However,
  PPL Energy Supply has concentrations of suppliers and customers among electric
  utilities, natural gas distribution companies and other energy marketing and
  trading companies. These concentrations of counterparties may impact PPL Energy
  Supply's overall exposure to credit risk, either positively or negatively, in
  that counterparties may be similarly affected by changes in economic, regulatory
  or other conditions. PPL Energy Supply records certain non-performance reserves
  to reflect the probability that a counterparty with contracts that are out of
  the money (from the counterparty's standpoint) will default in its performance,
  in which case PPL Energy Supply would have to sell into a lower-priced market
  or purchase from a higher-priced market. These reserves are reflected in the
  fair value of assets recorded in "Price risk management assets" on the Balance
  Sheet. PPL Energy Supply also records reserves to reflect the probability that
  a counterparty will not make payments for deliveries PPL Energy Supply has made
  but not yet billed. These reserves are reflected in "Unbilled revenues" on the
  Balance Sheet. PPL Energy Supply has also established a reserve with respect
  to certain sales to the California ISO for which PPL Energy Supply has not yet
  been paid, as well as a reserve related to PPL Energy Supply's exposure as a
  result of the Enron bankruptcy, which are reflected in "Accounts receivable"
  on the Balance Sheet. See Note 8 to the Financial Statements for additional
  information on the sales to the California ISO.

Related Party Transactions

PPL Energy Supply is not aware of any material ownership interests or operating
  responsibility by senior management of PPL Energy Supply in outside partnerships,
  including leasing transactions with variable interest entities, or other entities
  doing business with PPL Energy Supply.

For additional information on related party transactions, see Note 9 to the
  Financial Statements.

Acquisitions, Development and Divestitures

From time to time, PPL Energy Supply and its subsidiaries are involved in negotiations
  with third parties regarding acquisitions, joint ventures and other arrangements
  which may or may not result in definitive agreements. See Note 7 to the Financial
  Statements for information regarding recent acquisitions and development activities.

At June 30, 2004, PPL Energy Supply had domestic generation projects under
  development which are expected to provide 218 MW of additional generation.

PPL Energy Supply is continuously reexamining development projects based on
  market conditions and other factors to determine whether to proceed with these
  projects, sell them, cancel them, expand them, execute tolling agreements or
  pursue other opportunities.

  adopted in 2004 or pending adoption.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

PPL Energy Supply's financial condition and results of operations are impacted
  by the methods, assumptions and estimates used in the application of critical
  accounting policies. The following accounting policies are particularly important
  to the financial condition or results of operations of PPL Energy Supply, and
  require estimates or other judgments of matters inherently uncertain: price
  risk management, pension and other postretirement benefits, asset impairment,
  leasing, loss contingencies and asset retirement obligations.

See Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
  Results of Operations," in PPL Energy Supply's Annual Report to the SEC on Form
  10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, for a discussion of each critical
  accounting policy. PPL's senior management has reviewed these critical accounting
  policies, and the estimates and assumptions regarding them, with its Audit Committee.
  In addition, PPL's senior management reviewed the Form 10-K disclosures regarding
  the application of these critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee.

  31, 2003, for a description of PPL Electric's business. See Item 7, "Management's
  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," in
  PPL Electric's Annual Report to the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended December
  31, 2003, for an overview of PPL Electric's strategy and the risks and challenges
  that it faces in its business.

The information provided in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
  Condition and Results of Operations" should be read in conjunction with PPL
  Electric's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying
  Notes.

Terms and abbreviations are explained in the glossary. Dollars are in millions
  unless otherwise noted.

Results of Operations

The following discussion, which explains significant changes in principal items
  on the Statement of Income, compares the three and six months ended June 30,
  2004, with the comparable periods in 2003.

The Statement of Income reflects the results of past operations and is not
  intended as any indication of future operating results. Future operating results
  will necessarily be affected by various and diverse factors and developments.
  Furthermore, because results for interim periods can be disproportionately influenced
  by various factors and developments and by seasonal variations, the results
  of operations for interim periods do not necessarily indicate results or trends
  for the year.

The period to period changes in earnings components are discussed in the balance
  of "Results of Operations."

PPL Electric has filed a proposal with the PUC to increase distribution rates
  by approximately $164 million and has notified the PUC that it plans to pass
  through to customers approximately $57 million in increased transmission charges
  that PPL Electric pays to PJM for transmission services. Transmission services
  are provided under the PJM Open Access Transmission Tariff, a rate schedule
  filed with and approved by the FERC. Under the federal "filed rate doctrine,"
  such FERC-approved rates may be recovered from retail customers without a review
  of those rates by a state agency such as the PUC. In addition, PPL Electric's
  PUC-approved retail tariff permits the automatic pass-through of transmission
  charges. PPL Electric agreed to a cap on both of these charges until December
  31, 2004, as part of its 1998 settlement under the PUC Final Order. Generation
  charges for customers who do not select an alternative energy supplier are fixed
  through 2009 and are not affected by these changes. The combination of the proposed
  distribution rate increase and transmission charge pass-through would result
  in an 8.1% increase over PPL Electric's present rates effective January 1, 2005.
  PPL Electric cannot predict the outcome of this proceeding.

PPL Electric had been using CashPoint Network Services, Inc. (CashPoint) to
  manage customer bill payment centers. In April 2004, PPL Electric terminated
  the use of CashPoint to collect bill payments because of financial uncertainties
  and processing irregularities. CashPoint's largest creditors forced it into
  involuntary bankruptcy. As of June 30, 2004, PPL Electric recorded a reserve
  of $1 million, representing the estimated amount of funds owed by CashPoint
  that will not be recovered.

Operating Revenues

Retail Electric

The increases in revenues from retail electric operations were attributable
  to the following:

The increases for both periods were primarily due to higher PLR revenues due
  to higher energy and capacity rates in 2004 compared with 2003, and a 5% and
  4% increase in volumes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, in
  part due to the return of customers previously served by alternate suppliers.

Wholesale Electric

PPL Electric wholesale revenues were primarily derived from sales to municipalities.
  The $7 million and $11 million decreases in wholesale electric revenues for
  the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, compared with the same periods
  in 2003, were due to the expiration of all municipal purchase power agreements
  at the end of January 2004.

Energy Purchases from Affiliate

Energy purchases from affiliate increased by $19 million and $42 million for
  the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, compared with the same periods
  in 2003. The increases reflect an increase in PLR load for both periods in 2004,
  as well as higher prices for energy purchased under the power supply contracts
  with PPL EnergyPlus needed to support that load.

Depreciation

Depreciation increased by $3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004,
  compared with the same period in 2003, primarily due to plant additions, including
  the Automated Meter Reading project.

Taxes, Other Than Income

In the first quarter of 2004, PPL Electric reversed a $14 million accrued liability
  for 1998 and 1999 PURTA taxes that had been accrued based on potential exposure
  in the proceedings regarding the Susquehanna nuclear station tax assessment.
  The rights of the third party interveners to further appeal expired in 2004.
  The reversal is the primary reason for the $12 million decrease in taxes, other
  than income, for the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared with the same
  period in 2003.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased by $6 million and $13 million for the three and
  six months ended June 30, 2004, compared with the same periods in 2003. These
  decreases were the net impact of retirements of First Mortgage Bonds, Pollution
  Control Bonds, Senior Secured Bonds and Transition Bonds in 2003 and 2004, partially
  offset by the issuance of $100 million of Senior Secured Bonds and $90 million
  of Pollution Control Bonds in 2003.

Income Taxes

Income taxes increased by $4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004,
  compared with the same period in 2003, as a result of higher pre-tax book income.

Financial Condition

Liquidity

At June 30, 2004, PPL Electric had $39 million of cash and cash equivalents
  and $65 million of short-term debt. At December 31, 2003, PPL Electric had $162
  million of cash and cash equivalents and no short-term debt. The decrease in
  cash and cash equivalents was the net result of:

- the retirement of $271 million of long-term debt; and
- $98 million of capital expenditures; partially offset by
- $185 million of cash provided by operating activities; and
- an increase of $65 million in short-term debt.

For additional information on PPL Electric's liquidity, see Item 7, "Management's
  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," in
  PPL Electric's Annual Report to the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended December
  31, 2003.

Subsequent Financing

In August 2004, PPL Electric began participating in an asset-backed commercial
  paper (ABCP) program through which PPL Electric obtains financing by selling
  and contributing to a subsidiary certain of its accounts receivable. The subsidiary
  pledges the accounts receivable to secure loans of up to an aggregate of $150
  million from a commercial paper conduit sponsored by a financial institution.
  PPL Electric expects to use the proceeds from the ABCP program for general corporate
  purposes and to cash collateralize letters of credit. See Note 6 to the Financial
  Statements for additional information.

Risk Management

Market Risk

Commodity Price Risk - PLR Contracts

PPL Electric and PPL EnergyPlus have power supply agreements under which PPL
  EnergyPlus sells to PPL Electric (under a predetermined pricing arrangement)
  energy and capacity to fulfill PPL Electric's PLR obligation through 2009. As
  a result, PPL Electric has shifted any electric price risk relating to its PLR
  obligation to PPL EnergyPlus through 2009. See Note 9 to the Financial Statements
  for information on the PLR contracts.

Interest Rate Risk

PPL Electric has issued debt to finance its operations, which increases its
  interest rate risk. At June 30, 2004, PPL Electric's potential annual exposure
  to increased interest expense, based on a 10% increase in interest rates, was
  insignificant.

PPL Electric is also exposed to changes in the fair value of its debt portfolio.
  At June 30, 2004, PPL Electric estimated that its potential exposure to a change
  in the fair value of its debt portfolio, through a 10% adverse movement in interest
  rates, was approximately $21 million.

Related Party Transactions

PPL Electric is not aware of any material ownership interests or operating
  responsibility by senior management of PPL Electric in outside partnerships,
  including leasing transactions with variable interest entities, or other entities
  doing business with PPL Electric.

For additional information on related party transactions, see Note 9 to the
  Financial Statements.

Environmental Matters

See Note 8 to the Financial Statements for a discussion of environmental matters.

New Accounting Standards



See Note 16 to the Financial Statements for information on new accounting standards
  adopted in 2004 or pending adoption.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

PPL Electric's financial condition and results of operations are impacted by
  the methods, assumptions and estimates used in the application of critical accounting
  policies. The following accounting policies are particularly important to the
  financial condition or results of operations of PPL Electric, and require estimates
  or other judgments of matters inherently uncertain: pension and other postretirement
  benefits and loss contingencies.

See Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
  Results of Operations," in PPL Electric's Annual Report to the SEC on Form 10-K
  for the year ended December 31, 2003, for a discussion of each critical accounting
  policy. PPL's senior management has reviewed these critical accounting policies,
  and the estimates and assumptions regarding them, with its Audit Committee.
  In addition, PPL's senior management reviewed the Form 10-K disclosures regarding
  the application of these critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee.
