AFF IDA V IT STATE OF Washington )

ss.

COUNTY OF Benton )

I, Richard B. Stout, being duly sworn, hereby say and de-pose:

l. I am Manager, Licensing and Safety Engineering, for Exxon Nuclear Company, Inc. ("ENC"), and as such I am authorized to execute this Affidavit.

2. I am fami liar with ENC's detailed document control system and policies which govern the protection and control of information.

3. I am fami liar with the documents XN-NF-84-21(P) and XN-NF-82-32(P) Revision 2, entitled "Donald C. Cook Unit 2 Cycle 5 Steam Generator Tube Plugging Limiting Break LOCA/ECCS Analysis" and "Plant Transient Analysis for the Donald C. Cook Unit 2 Reactor at 3425 NWt Operation with 51 Steam Generator Tube Plugging", respectively, referred to as "Documents". Information contained in these Documents has been classified by ENC as proprietary in accordance with the control system and policies established by ENC for the control and protection of information.

4. The Documents contain information of a proprietary and confidential nature and is of the type customarily held in confidence by ENC and not made available to the public. Based on my experience, I am aware that other companies regard information of the kind contained in the Documents as proprietary and confidential.

5. The Documents have been made available to American Electric Power Service Corporation in confidence, with the request that the information contained in the Document not be disclosed or divulged.

6. The Documents contain information which is vital to a com-petitive advantage of ENC and would be helpful to competitors of ENC when competing with ENC.

7. The information contained in the Documents is considered to be proprietary by ENC because it reveals certain distinguishing aspects of 1

the safety analysis methodology which secure competitive advantage to ENC for fuel design optimization and marketability, and includes information utilized by ENC in its business which affords ENC an opportunity to obtain a competitive advantage over its competitors who do not or may not know or use the information contained in the Documents.

8. The disclosure of the proprietary information contained in the Documents to a competitor would permit the competitor to reduce its expenditure of money and manpower and to improve its competitive position by giving it extremely valuable insights into the ENC safety analysis methodology and would result in substantial harm to the competitive position of ENC.

9. The Documents contain proprietary information which is held in confidence by ENC and is not available in public sources.

10. In accordance with ENC's policies governing the protection and control of information, proprietary information contained in the Documents has been made available, on a limited basis, to others outside ENC only as required and under suitable agreement providing for non-disclosure and limited use of the information.

11. ENC policy requires that proprietary information be kept in a secured file or area and distributed on a need-to-know basis.

12. These Documents provide information which reveals the ENC safety analysis methodology developed by ENC over the past several years.

ENC has invested millions of dollars and many man-years of effort in developing the analysis methods revealed in the Documents. Assuming a competitor had available the same background data and incentives as ENC, the competitor might, at a minimum, develop the information for the same expenditure of manpower and money as ENC.

13. Based on my experience in the industry, I do not believe that the background data and incentives of ENC's competitors are suf-ficiently similar to the corresponding background data and incentives of ENC to reasonably expect such competitor s would be in a position to duplicate ENC's proprietary information contained in the Documents.

THAT the statements made hereinabove are, to the best of my knowledge, information, and belief, truthful and complete.

FURTHER AFFIANT SAYETH NOT.
