APS Chairman Keith L. Turley announced today.

According to Turley, "APS will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the holding company.

APS will continue to remain' regulated utility under the jurisdiction of the Arizona Corporation Commission and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.

The day-to-day opera-tion of APS would not be affected in any way," Turley said, "and the Board of the holding company will also continue to serve as the Board for APS."

Turley said that in addition to APS, three other existing companies become subsidiaries of the holding company.

They are Energy Development

Company, El Dorado Investment Company ahd Malapai Resources Company.

Turley said the restructuring will provide the flexibility h

'or AZP Group, Inc. to allow for future involvement in alternative energy sources and other areas without exposing the APS utility consumers to any financial risks.

"At this time we have no specific plans, but we firmly believe that the proposed restructuring will provide the best corporate

'rganization to meet the challenges of the years ahead,"

he said.

The proposed corporate structure will follow the holding company

'pattern which has now become common within the utility industry.

Under the proposed restructuring, APS common stockholders would become owners of the holding company by receiving one share of common stock in the newly formed company for each share of APS common stock owned, although an exchange of certificates would not be required.
