INTRODUCTION 0

Soyland power Cooperative is a member owned, not for profit electric generation and transtnission cooperative which supphes wholesale electrkity to 21 member distribu-tion e(KyWratlves. These distribution cooperatives provide retail electric service to approxtinately one half million persons within their local service territories. Soyland is one of more than 60 gencrutton and transmission (G&Tl cooperatives that supply wholesak electric power to rural utilities in the United States.

Soyland was organtred by six distribution cooperatives in September 1963, under the General Not For Profit Corporation Act of the State of Illinois. Leaders of those cononon Purpmc cooperatives saw Soyland as a way to gain energy independence and control over electric power costs. In 1975, nine additional cooperatives joined the original six (two have since merged), and plans were launched to develop a rellable and economical power supply system Western Illinois power Cooperative, with seven member distribution cooperative systems, merged into Soyland in March 1989, to form the cooperative federation it.tt today supplies the electric power needs of nearly two thirds of the land mass of the State of Illinois.

Applied Energy Systems, Inc., the parent company of WaterFurnace of Illinois, Inc.,

is a wholly owned for proftt subsidiary of Soyland Power Cooperative Wateri'urnace of Illinois is marketing geothermal heat pumps throughout the 21 inember cooperative service areas. This year Appiled Energy executed a distributor agreement with Steffes ETS, Inc., a leading manufacturer of electric thermal storage heaters Applied Energy Systems is pursuing other opportunities to assist Soyland's inembers to meet the needs of the consurners they serve.

Soyland and its 21 member distribution cooperatives are continuing to pursue opportuuttles to make rural Illinois a better place in which to live. We remain cotumit-ted to enhancing economie development opportunttles to attract businesses to rural service areas to. In turn, provide jobs for rural consumers.

Since its inception in 1963 Soyland's goal has been to provide a dependable source of wholesale electric power to its members at the lowest possible cost, Today, through its unique blend of fuels and generating plants. Soyland has built a stable base from which to meet the cicetric energy requirements of its member systems.

1. POWER SUPPLY PAYMENTS Payments made under power supply agreements (see note 7) are classtlled as purchased capacity, energy costs and transmission expense in the statements of revenues and expenses.

J.DEPERREDITEMS Deferred credits consist of equity funding payments and other deferred revenue. The equity funding payments were collected from members and were used to reduce borrowings related to the Clinton generating facility. These payments are being amortized to revenue over a seven year period beginatng in 1988. The deferred revenue represents payments collected from rnembers during 1987 md 1988 which primarily relate to estimated 1987 operating expenses of the Clinton generating facility that were not incurred due to Clinton not being placed into commercial operation until December 1987. These payments have been amortired to revenue over a three year period ending in 1990.

Deferred charges consist of costs deferred under a phase.in plan (see note 3), deferred interest (see note 4) and recoverable energy costs in excess of revenue generated from the sale of power. These costs will be recovered through rates in future periods, The amount of these costs to be amortired in 1991 has been reflected as a current asset in the balance sheets.

K. REChASSIPICATION Certain accounts for 1989 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation for 1990.

NOTE 2 - MERGER in March 1989, the Cooperative and Western Illinois Power Cooperative. Inc. (WIPCO) merged into one cooperative retaining the name Soyland Power Cooperative. Inc. The merger was accounted for as a pooling of interests effective January 1,1989.

NOTE 3 - ELECTRIC UTILITY PLANT IN SERVICE The major classes of electric utility plant in service at December 31,1990 and 1989, are as follows:

$ 1.005.496.776

$ 1.002,131.022 The Cooperative (including WIPCO) has a 13.21% interest in the 950 megawatt Clinton nuclear generating facility k>cated in Clinton, Illinois which was completed and placed in service in 1987. The Cooperative's share of operating expenses associated with this facility is included with the appropriate operating expenses in the statements of revenues and expenses.

Prior to 1989, the Cooperative estimated its ownership percentage in the Clinton facility was 13.38%

sub}ect to adjustment based on the final direct cost to construct the faellity. In 1989. the Cooperative negotiated a final settlement with Illinois Power Company (majority owner and operator of the Clinton facility) which established the Cooperative's final ownership percentage at 13.21%. The settlement resulted in a net reimbursement from Illinois Power Company of $12.018.154, (including interest of ap-proximately $5.6 million) to reimburse the Cooperative for its proportionate share of the costs of Clinton based on the lower ownership percentage.

In 1990 the Cooperative and Illinois Power Company (IP) settled litigation initiated by the Cooperative 0 gainst IP (as project Manager) concerning the construction of the Clinton Power Station and the related etanter claims asserted by IP against the Cooperattve. The terms and conditions of the settlement agree-men: provided that Soyland and IP dismiss all pending litigation and release each other from all claims resulting from the construction of the Clinton Power Station. The settlement also provided for an exten-ston, and other modifications, of the Cooperative's power supply agreement with IP (see note 7). Also, as a 32

part of the setdement, the C(xiperative will receive a cash payrnent f rom IP w hich has beeti inchnled in other revenue in the statements of revenues and expenses. The settlement is subject to flind approval by the appilcable district court.

In 1988, the Cooperative developed a rate phase in plan in accordance with Statement of l'inancial Accounting Standards No. 92 which is designed to inoderate late increases related to the completion and commercial operation of the Clinton factitty. The plan, which has been approved by the RCA and the Cooperative's Board of Directors, inchides the deferral ol < ertain costs for f uture recovery and the amorti-ration of equity funding and deferred revertue payments, Under the plan, the Cooperative originally intended to defer approximately $47 rnlllion of certain operating costs of Clinton hom 1988 through 1992 which will be recovered from mernbers through rates f rorn 1993 through 1997. Through 1990, the Cooperative has deferred approxinuttely $19.(KK)JUO less in costs that anticipated in the original phase in plan. 'Ihc Cooperative estimates that its rates under the plan, net of equity funding and deferred revenue amorttration, willinercase yearly by approximately 3%6% from 1991 through 1994 and remain level or decrease each year therrafter through 1999. Management believes that this plan will result in the full recovery of its investruent in Clinton over the life of the faellity as well as providing adequate funds to meet its operating needs.

The Note 11 beats interest at 10 06% and requites the Cooperative to make annual Energy Sales Payments (lot principal and interesti on Note 11 begturnng in 1993 through 202K The amount of the Energy Sales Payment is based on a load growth formula ta. deternuned by the agreement) winch will tesult in a pay.

Management of the Cool.erative projects a stable hiad in f uture years and therefore amletpates that paynients under Note 11 will be minimal, it any. Ih ause of the uncertainty relating to the Cooperattvei obligation to make principal and interest payments on Note 11, only the required principal and interest payinents on Note A have been used to com;iute the im;iliett interest rate of 2.703% on the testructured debt.
