Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual financialstatements. The December 31, 2008 condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. Because the accompanying interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual financial statements, they should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Progress Registrants’ annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,2008 (2008 Form 10-K).

In general, we determine whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE through a qualitative analysis of risk that identifies which variable interest holder absorbsthe majority of the financial risk and variability of the VIE. In performing this analysis, we consider all relevant facts and circumstances, including: the design and activities of the VIE, the terms of the contracts the VIE has entered into, the nature of the VIE’s variable interests issued and how they were negotiated with or marketed to potential investors, and which parties participated significantly in the design or redesign of the entity. If the qualitative analysis is inconclusive, a specific quantitativeanalysis is performed. For purposes of the following disclosures, the maximum loss amounts represent the maximum exposure that would be absorbed by the Progress Registrants in the event that all of the assets of the VIE are deemed worthless, including any additional costs that the Progress Registrants would incur.</font></div>

45K of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code). See Note 1C in the 2008 Form 10-K for discussion of our variable interest in Ceredo and our disposal of Ceredo in 2007. There were no changes to our assessment of the primary beneficiary during 2008 or for the period ended June 30, 2009. No financial or other support has been provided to Ceredo during the periods presented. At June 30, 2009, we had no assets and $20 million of liabilities related to the legal and tax indemnifications provided to the buyer includedin other liabilities and deferred credits on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The ultimate resolution of the indemnifications could result in adjustments to the gain on disposal in future periods.

PEC’s variable interests are debt and equity investments in the two VIEs. PEC performed quantitative analyses to determine the primary beneficiaries of the two VIEs.The primary factors in the analyses were the estimated economic lives of the partnerships and their net cash flow projections, estimates of available tax credits, and the likelihood of default on debt and other commitments. There were no changes to PEC’s assessment of the primary beneficiary during 2008 or for the period ended June 30, 2009. No financial or other support has been provided to the VIEs during the periods presented. At June 30, 2009, PEC had assets of $39 million, substantially all of which werereflected in miscellaneous other property and investments, $15 million in long-term debt, $3 million in other liabilities and deferred credits and $5 million in accounts payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets related to the two VIEs. The assets of the two VIEs are collateral for, and can only be used to settle, their obligations.

The investment fund accounts for the 17 partnerships on the equity method of accounting. PEC also has an interest in one power plant resulting fromlong-term power purchase contracts. PEC’s only significant exposure to variability from the power purchase contracts results from fluctuations in the market price of fuel used by the entity’s plants to produce the power purchased by PEC. We are able to recover these fuel costs under PEC’s fuel clause. The generation capacity of the entity’s power plant is approximately 847 megawatts (MW). PEC has requested the necessary information to determine if the investment fund’s 17 partnerships and the power plant ownerare VIEs or to identify the primary beneficiaries; all entities from which the necessary financial information was requested declined to provide the information to PEC, and, accordingly, PEC has applied the information scope exception provided by GAAP to the 17 partnerships and the power plant. PEC believes that if it is determined to be the primary beneficiary of these entities, the effect of consolidating the power plant and the investment fund consolidating the 17 partnerships would result in increases tototal assets, long-term debt and other liabilities, but would have an insignificant or no impact on PEC’s common stock equity, net earnings or cash flows. However, because PEC has not received any financial information from the counterparties, the impact cannot be determined at this time.</font></div><div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"> </div><div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-STYLE: italic; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman">PEF</font></div><div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"> </div><div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman">The following information is provided for PEF’s significant variable interests in VIEs for which PEF is not the primary beneficiary:</font></div>

In accordance with the lease agreement, PEF is not required to make any lease payments over the last 20 years of the lease, during which period $51 million of rental expense will be recorded in the PEF Statements of Income. The prepayment
clause is PEF’s only variable interest in the VIE and, therefore, PEF’s exposure to loss primarily relates to the recovery of the prepayments through future use of the rental property. PEF performed qualitative and quantitative analyses and concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The primary factors in the analyses were the lease term, the fact that the lease payments are not variable interests, the likelihood of construction and casualty risks to the building and the existence of insuranceto offset those risks, and the estimated fair value of the building at the end of the lease term. There were no changes to PEF’s assessment of the primary beneficiary during 2008 or for the period ended June 30, 2009. No financial or other support has been provided to the VIE during the periods presented. At June 30, 2009, PEF had a $5 million prepayment included in other assets and deferred debits on the Balance Sheets. No liabilities associated with the prepayment clause were recorded. The aggregate maximum
exposure to loss at June 30, 2009, is $51 million, which represents the loss if the maximum prepayment of rent at the end of year 20 was not recovered through future use of the rental property or from third-party insurers at that time.</font></div><div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"> </div><div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman">PEF has a residual value guarantee in an operating railcar lease agreement with a special purpose entity that is a VIE.

The residual value guarantee is PEF’s primary variable interest in the VIE and, therefore, PEF’s exposure to loss is from the potential decrease in the fair value of the railcars. PEF performed qualitative and quantitativeanalyses and concluded that it is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The primary factors in the analyses were the terms of the lease, the probability of exercising the early termination clause, and the estimated fair value of the railcars. There were no changes to PEF’s assessment of the primary beneficiary during 2008 or for the period ended June 30, 2009. No financial or other support has been provided to the VIE during the periods presented. No liabilities associated with the residual value guaranteewere recorded at June 30, 2009, because the early termination clause was not exercised. The aggregate maximum exposure to loss at June 30, 2009, is $18 million, which represents the maximum loss if the early termination clause were exercised in 2009 and the related railcars were deemed worthless.</font></div></div>1.
