He System Companies generate funds from operations sufficient to meet operating needs, pay dividends on capital stock and finance a portion of capital requirements. These funds are derived from conmlidated net income, depreciation, deferred taxes and investment tax credits. Factors affecting the ability of TU Electric to continue to fund a portion of its capital requirements from operations include adequate rate relief and regulatory practices allowing a substantial portion of construction work in pro-gress in rate base, adequate depreciation rates, normalization of federal income taxes, recovery of the cost of fuel and purchased power and the opportunity to earn competitive rates of return required in the capital markets. For 1986, approximately 33% of the funds needed for construction was generated from operations. External funds of a permanent or long-term nature are obtained through the sale of common stock by the Company, and the sales of preferred stock and long-term debt by the System Companies. The capitali:ation ratios of the Company and its subsidiaries at December 31, 1986, consisted of approximately 44% long<erm debt,11% preferred stock and 45% common stock equity. Similar ratios are expected to be maintained in the future. For information regarding bank lines of credit and short-term borrowings of the Company, see Note 2 to Financial Statements.

Le System Companies expect to sell securities as needed, including the possible future sale by TU Electric of up to $350,000,000 principal amount of first mortgage and collateral trust bonds and up to 1,000,000 shares of cumulative preferred stock, both currently registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission for offering pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, sales of additional shares of common stock of the Company pursuant to various plans described in Note 3 to Financial Statements and sales of additional securities from time to time, in amounts and of types presently undetermined. The Tax Reform Act of 1986 was enacted in October 1986. He Act, among other things, repealed the investment tax credit, lengthened depreciation lives, created an alternative minimum tax and lowered the corporate tax rate subject to certain transition rules. Other tax accounting changes were required in-cluding the capitalization of items previously expensed and a change in the timing of income recognition for certain items. Substantially all of the tax changes, with the exception of the rate reduction, will result in the Company paying more taxes currently, will eliminate sources of internally generated funds for the Company and thereby increase fmancing requirements in the future. The Act did not have a material ef-fect on the Company for the year ended December 31, 1986. Although TU Electric cannot predict future regulatory practices, the extent of any further delays in the licensing of Comanche Peak or any changes in economic and securities market conditions, no changes are expected in trends or commitments which might significantly alter its basic financial position or ability to fmance capital requirements. However, TU E!ectric has indicated that it does not currently plan to in-ciude any additional Comanche Peak costs in a rate increase request until Unit 1 is ready for commercial operation and has stated that it believes the initial rate increase that will be necessary to place Unit 1 in-to base rates can be held to about 10%. Therefore, prior to the completion of Comanche Peak and its inclusion in rate base, a lesser percentage of capital requirements may be generated internally. (See Notes 10 and 11 to Financial Statements.) See Financial Statistics for additional information. Results of Operations Operating revenues decreased $238,112,000 in 1986 and increased $237,922,000 in 1985. He following l table details the factors contributing to the decrease and increase: Increase (Decrease) Factors 1986 _1985 Tlvmands of Darrs Fuel and purchased power revenue $(299,261) $103,598 Increaxd energy sales. 69,904 135,051 Other (8,755) (727) Totat. $(238,112) $237,922 The decrease in operating revenues for 1986 was the result of decreased fuel revenue partially offset by in-creased energy sales. lower cost of fuel had a significant impact on the decrease in revenues, despite an increase in energy sales of 2.6% attributable to a 3.0% growth in customers. Milder than normal weather and a softness in the service area's economy have also affected sales. Operating revenues for 1985 increas-ed as a result of increased energy sales due primarily to a 5.3% increase in customers and a fairly stable economy, despite milder than normal weather in the service area. See Operating Statistics. 18

Fuel and purchased power expense decreased $309,671,000 in 1986 and increased $106,185,000 in 1985. lower fuel expenw for 1986 reflects the decrease in the unit cost of gas from $3.41 per million Btu in 1985 to $2.77 in 1986 offset in part by increased purchased power. The increase for 1985 was due primarily to increased purchased power and increased consumption of gas. See Operating Statistics. Operation expense increased $38,901,000 and $25,117,000 for 1986 and 1985, respectively. Operation expense was affected by increases in the cost of laix>r, materials and sersices. Increases in wheeling costs and liability and property insurance had a significant impact on operation expense for 1986. The increase for 1985 reflects increases in wheeling costs and costs associated with removing and resetting line transformers. Maintenance expense for 1986 and 1985 increased $19,540,000 and $29,590,000, respectively. Le in-crease in maintenance for 1986 was the result of increases in power production expenses associated with lignite and gas plants and programs to improve and ensure the availability of all generating units. Increas-ed distribution maintenance also added to the increase for 1986. The 1985 increase was the result of in-creased power pnxluction expenses of gas plants to ensure the availability of all gas units and increased tree trimming and distribution maintenance. Taxes other than income increased $4,117,000 and $31,769,000 for 1986 and 1985, respectively. Le increase for 1986 resulted primarily from increases in franchise and property based taxes offset in part by decreased revenue based taxes. The 1985 increase was due primarily to increases in revenue and property based taxes. Allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC) increased as a result of the ongoing con-struction program and the resultant increase in the level of construction work in progress of RJ Electric not included in rate base. Other income and deductions net for 1086 increased $11,585,000. Le increase in 1986 was primarily due to a sale of certain properties at a gain. The decrease for 1985 was attributable to the writedown of certain property to estimated market value and a decrease in interest income. Interest on first mortgage bonds increased in 1986 due to new issues sold during the year and an-nualized interest of issues sold during 1985, partially offset by the retirements and redemptions of certain high interest rate issues. For 1985, the increase was primarily the result of new issues sold during the year. Other interest charges increased $9,570,000 for 1986 and decreased $2,221,000 for 1985. Le increase for 1986 reflects increawd interest costs on over-recovered fuel revenue offset in part by decreased interest on short-term borrowings. Le decrease for 1985 was primarily the result of a decrease in interest on federal income tax settlements in the prior year. Preferred stock dividends increased for 1986 and 1985, $12,099,000 and $5,618,000, respectively, due to new issues sold during these periods and the full year's effect of prior period issuances, offset in part by lower dividend rates on the adjustable rate series. Consolidated net income increased $39,093,000 in 1986 and $61,717,000 in 1985 which represents a culmination of the factors described above. Included in consolidated net income were increases in AFUDC of $74,114,000 in 1986 and $57,952,0LV in 1985 which represents non< ash eamings to the Company. 19

_.,9lI NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Significant Accounting Policies Gmsoudation-ne consolidated financial statements include Texas Utilities Company (Company) and all of its subsidiaries; all significant intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Urdity Plant-Utility plant is stated at original cost. He cost of property additions charged to utility plant indudes labor and materials, applicable overhead and payroll-related costs and an allowance for funds used during construction. Allouunce Ibr Funds Used During Oxutnerion-Allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC) is a cost accounting procedure whereby amounts based upon interest charges on borrowed funds and a return on equity capital used to finance construction are charged to utility plant. He accrual of AFUDC is in accord with generally accepted accounting principles for the industry, but does not represent current cash income. In January 1984, Texas Utilities Electric Company (TU Electric) began capitalizing AFUDC at a net of tax rate of 9%%, compounded semi-annually, of expenditures incurred, except for that portion of construction work in progress allowed in rate base by regulatory authorities. This rate was determined on the basis of, but is less than, the cost of capital used to finance the construction program. Dcpreciation-Depreciation is based upon an amortization of the original cost of depreciable proptities on a straight-line basis over the estimated service lives of the properties. Depreciation as a percent of average depreciable property approximated 3.4% for 1986 and 1985 and 3.5% for 1984. Other Intestments-ne difference between the amount at which the investment in a subsidiary is carried by the Company and the underlying book equity of such subsidiary at the respective dates of acquisition of $14,439,000 is induisi in other investments. Retenac3-Revenues include billings under approved rates (including a fuel cost recovery factor) applied to meter readings each month on a cycle basis and an amount for under or over recovery of fuel representing the difference between actual fuel cost and billings on the approved fuel recovery factor. Pur-suant to a rule adopted in January 1984 by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUC), TU Electric had been required to request reconciliation of any over-recovery of fuel costs and may request reconcilia-tion of any under-recovery of fuel costs no less than twelve months after implementing a change in fuel cost recovery. Under the current rule aJopted in July 1986, TU Electric is required to refund over-recovered fuel revenue if the amount of c tr-recovery, including interest, is the leswr of $40 million or 4% of its annual known or reasonably predictable fuel cmts most recently approved by the PUC. Recon. ciliation of fuel costs is to be made in a general rate case or a raunciliation proceeding. Reconaliation may be requested if the utility has miterially under-recovered its known or reasonably predictable fuel costs. Federal hame T.ucs-Be Company and its subsidiary companies file a consolidated faleral income tax return, and federal income taxes are alkrated to all subsidiary companies basd upon taxable income or loss. Deferru! federal income taxes are currently provi&si for timing differences Irtween book and taxable income; such differences result primarily from the use of hberali:ed depreciation and accelerated cmt I rauvery allowable under the Internal Revenue Code and the under or over recovery of fuel revenue. Cumulauve timing differences in earlier years for which deferred federal income taxes were not provided approximatal $D9,000,000 at December 31, 1986. Investment tax credits are being amorti:al to income over the estimatal servi e lives of the properties. The enattment in Octoirr of the Tax Reform Att of 1986 induded, among other things, the repeal of the investment tax craht effective January 1,1986, subject to certain transition rules. Le Act did not have a material ethe on the financial statements presented herein for the year ended De ember 31, 1986. l 24

2. Bank Balances and Short. Term Borrowings At December 31,1986 and 1985, the Company had lines of credit aggregating $600,000,000 under a credit facility agreement with several commercial banks. The lines of credit may be used for either backup lines for commercial paper or for bank loans. This facility, for which the Company pays a fee, will be reduced ratably each year beginning in 1991 by $200,000,000. The total amount of borrowings authorized by the I30ard of Directors of the Company from banks or other lenders at December 31,1986 was

$650,000,000.

3. Common Stock The Company issued and sold shares of its authori:cd but unissued common stock during the years 1986,1985 and 1984 as follows:

Automatic Dividend Reimestment and Employees' Thrift Plan Common Stock and Employee Public Offerint Purchase Plan Stock Ownership _P_lan Total Year Shares Amount Shares Amount Shares Amount Shares Amount 1986 - 3,826,687 $115,148,000 935,357 $30,023,000 4,762,(M4 $145,171,0LV 1985 5.000,000 $130,650,000 1,431,846 90,199,0LV I,025,M7 28,318,000 9,457,493 249,167,000 19M - 3,875,799 86,450,000 1,024,812 24,115,000 4,900,611 Il0,565,0LV At December 31, 1986, 5,919,663 shares of the authorized but unissued common stock of the Com-pany were reserved for issuance and sale pursuant to the above plans. The Company has 50,000,000 authori:ed shares of serial preference stock having a par value of $25 a share, none of which has been issued.

4. Retained Earnings The articles of incorporation, the mortgages, as supplemented, and the debenture agreements of TU Electric contain provisions which, under certain conditions, restrict distributions on or acquisitions of its common stock, At December 31,1986, $123,613,000 of retained earnings of TU Electric were thus restricted as a result of the provisions of such articles of incorporation. Retained earnings at such date also indudal $431,243,000, representing the Company's equity in undistributed earnings since acquisition induded in transfers by TU Electric from its retained earnings to stated value of common stock, making a total of retained earnings which was restricted of $554,856,000 at December 31, 1986.

8. Retirement Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits The System Companies have uniform retirement plans covering substantially all employees. The benefits are based on years of accredited service and the empicyee's average annual earnings received during the three years of highest earnings. The costs of the plans are determined by independent actuaries. Con-tributions to the plans were determined using the fro en attained age method which is one of the several actuarial methods allowed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. During 1986, the Systei.: Companies adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Bxrd's Statement of Financial Account-ing Standards No. 87, " Employers' Accounting for Pensions." He new standard requires, among other things, the use of the projected unit credit actuarial method for determining pension cost for financial rep)rting purposes. The difference between pension cost as determined under the new standard and con-tributions to the plans in 1986 is recorded as prepaid pension cost and included in other current assets.

The adoption of the new accounting standard did not have a material etibet upon the Company's finan-cial position or results of operations. I 28

Purchase of Utility Plant In October 1984, TU Electric purchased Alcoa's 30% interest in the partially completed Twin Oak generating station and asmciated lignite reserves, and Texas Utilities Mining Company (Mining Company) purchawd the associated lignite mining fa<ilities and equipment. The purchase price of Alcoa's interest in the station, related lignite reserves and mining racilities and equipment was $119,944,0tn
10. Comanche Peak Nuclear Generating Station TU Electric is constructing two nuclear-fueled generating units at Comanche Peak Nuclear Generating Station (Comanche Peak). TU Electric is subject to the jurisdiction of the Nuclear Regulatory Commis-sion (SRC) with respect to nuclear power plants. NRC regulations govern the granting of licenses for the construction and operation of nuclear power plants and subject such power plants to continuing review and nyulation. Pursuant to such regulations, a review is being conducted by the NRC of RJ Electric's application for licenses to operate the Comanche Peak units. As a part of that review, a proceeding was initiated before an Atomic Safety and Licensing Board (ASLB) and hearings on various issues have been ongoing since December 1981. After completion of the ASLB proceeding, the ASLB will make recom-mendations to the NRC regarding the issuance of operating licenses for the Comanche Peak units. An intervenor is actively involved in this ASLB proceeding.

He one remaining Contention before the ASLB in the operating license proceeding relates to TU Electric's quality assurance / quality control (QA/QC) program for the design and construction of the plant. In December 1983, the ASLB issued a memorandum questioning the QA program for design of 29

/ a ' NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (coniinue+

10. Comanche Peak Nuclear Generating Station kontinua certain portions of the plant and requested that TU Electric offer additional proof of adequate design and design review procedures. The ASLB is also resiewing several other related issues and has indicated its in-tent to review the results of the NRC's Technical Review Team (TRT) investigation discussed below. In July 1984, a separate ASLB, including two of the three members of the original ASLB, was convened to receive testimony on allegations that QC inspectors at the plant have been subjected to an atmosphere of harassment and intimidation which is alleged to have affected the implementation of TU Electric's QA program. In January 1986, this separate ASLB was disestablished with all issues thereafter to be resolved by the original ASLB.

As a separate part of the NRC's review of'IU Electric's operating license application, in March 1984 the NRC established a task force to consolidate and carry out the various reviews necessary for the NRC Staff to reach its decision regarding the operating licenses. This effort inmtved the establishment of the ET which began an intensive onsite investigation in July 1984 and subsequently has issued reports re-questing additional information from TU Electric with respect to several functional areas of the plant's construction program. TU Electric then formed a special team, the Comanche Peak Response Team (CPRT), which includes a number of independent experts in each area addressed by the TRT, and sub-mitted a Program Plan to respond to the questions raised. Such Plan, which is described further below, is presently being implemented and has been expanded to address the design and other ASLB issues described herein. In January 1985, the TRT issued a report on its review of the QA/QC programs at Comanche Peak. The report stated that although the QA program documentation met NRC requirements, the implemen-tation of the QA program demonstrated that TU Electric has lacked the commitment to aggressively im-plement an effective QA/QC program in several areas. The TRT indicated that it has found evidence of faulty construction and ineffective QA and QC inspections. Questions were also raised concerning the training and qualification of QC personnel and in the reporting of deficiencies. The RT further found that prior to July 1984 problems had existed in the control of documentation. In addition, deficiencies in several other areas were described. TU Electric was requested to submit to the NRC a program and schedule for completing a detailed and thorough assessment of these QA/QC issues presented by the TRT. TU Electric also was asked to consider the use of management personnel with a fresh perspective to evaluate the TRT findings and implement corrective action, and to consider the use of an indepen-dent consultant to oversee the corrective action program. In June 1985, TU Electric filed with the NRC and the ASLB a comprehensive Program Plan which will be utili:ed by the CPRT to address all outstanding design and construction concerns. This Plan, which was substantially revised and reissued in January 19S6, calls for the inspection, on a sa:npling basis, of numerous safety related systems in the plant, for the determination of root causes and generic implica-tions of any safety significant deviations found in the inspection process, and for the development of a corrective action program as required. In hiay 1986, the StatT of the NRC issued a Supplemental Safety Evaluation Report (SSER) containing an evaluation of this Plan. The SSER concludes that the Plan pro-vides an overall structure and process for addressing and resching all existing construction and design issues and any future issues that may be identified from further evaluations. TU Electric has made several key management changes in the nuclear program for Comanche Peak, including the addition of several new officers who bring substantial nudear experience to TU Electric. This new management team is responsible for oversight and implementation of the reinspection and corrective action program. Also in June 1985, TU Electric filed with the NRC and the ASLB a Case hianagement Plan (hianage-ment Plan) which recommended that the results of the CPRT effort be used to provide the ASLB with reasonable assurance that Comanche Peak has been safely constructed and suggested that numerous cur-rent issues before the ASLB no longer need to be considered in light of the significant reinspection effort now underway. In August 1985, the ASLB issued a hiemorandum and Order addressing issues raised by the hianagement Pim. The hiemorandum denied TU Electric's motion to adopt the Management Plan stating that the ASL3 finds that it would not be proper to adopt such hianagement Plan as the sole basis for continued litigation of TU Electric's application for operating licenses for the Comanche Peak units. In addition, the hiemorandum described other areas of the CPRT Program Plan that concern the ASLB. The hiemorandum indicated, however, that if the CPRT Program Plan is revised to address the ASLB's concerns and if it is appropriately implemented, the CPRT Program Plan may demonstrate the quality of the plant. The ASLB further stated that it is difficult to forecast when hearings in the case will be concluded but that the ruling may necessitate substantial proceedings that will delay the operation of 30 Comanche Peak.

e r ~ e' In June 1986, the ASLB issued a Memorandum which addressed " Board Concerns" about the ade-quacy of the CPRT program. He Memorandum stated that, based upon the ASLB's current knowledge of the program, after having reviewed the first results reports and the SSER on the CPRT program, the ASLB continued to have the concerns expressed in earlier memoranda, as described above. The ASLB also raised additional concerns about how findings in one area of the reinspection effort may affect W Electric's programs in other areas, whether sufficient attention is being paid to problems of quality assurance and quality control regarding design, the adequacy of the CPRT sampling program, and perceived oversights in one of the results reports that had been issued. TU Electric is addressing these concerns and has submitted a response. In August 1986, the ASLB issued a ruling concerning the scheduling of issues for hearing. Under the ruling, the intervenor can and has initiated discovery relating to the overall adequacy of the CPRT program. Within thirty days following W Electric's completion of responses to the intervenor's discovery requests, the intervenor is permitted to file a motion with the ASLB for summary disposition on the issue of the adequacy of the CPRT program. Following receipt of such motion, the ASLB will determine whether to proceed with determining the overall adequacy of the CPRT program or whether to address the specific findings and results of the CPRT program. In May 1985, TU Electric found a report in its file, relating to certain deficiencies in the QA program, which it believed should have been provided in response to a 1980 discovery request of the intervenor, and sent the report to the ASLB. In June 1985, TU Electric indicated that an error in judgment was made in failing to produce the report earlier and took appropriate steps to assure that a similar situation does not recur. His matter has been investigated by the NRC's Office of Investigations which concluded that the omission was a material false statement but that it was not intentional. His matter has also been the subject of discovery requests before the ASLB. In January 1986, TU Electric filed an application with the NRC for an extension of the construction permit for Unit I to reflect a new " latest date for completion" of August 1,1988; previously such date had been August 1,1985. In the application, TU Electric stated that the reason the request for extension of the construction permit was not filed at an earlier time was administrative oversight. In February 1986, the NRC issued an order extending the " latest date for completion" of Unit I to August 1,1988. Subse-quently, the intervenor involved in the operating license ASLB proceeding filed with the NRC a request to stay the effectiveness of the construction permit extension and to require TU Electric to file a new ap-plication for a construction permit for Unit 1 or to order that hearings be held prior to any decision on whether to grant the construction permit extension. He request for a stay was denied by the NRC and the question of whether to hold such hearings was remanded to an ASLB, the members of which are the same as the ASLB for the operating license. In May 1986, the ASLB issued a Memorandum and Order in which it accepted for litigation a new Contention, raised by two intervenors which alleged that the delay in completing Comanche Peak, which has occurred and has necessitated the extension of the construction permit by the NRC, is the result of dilatory action on the part of TU Electric and that, therefore, goal cause did not exist for the extension of such permit. TU Electric appealed this ruling to the NRC's Atomic Safety and Licensing Appeal Board (Appeal Board). In July 1986, the Appeal Board certified to the NRC Commissioners a question regarding the validity of the Contention which had been accepted by the ASLB; and in September 1986, the Commissioners issued a ruling supportive of TU Electric's position and remanded this matter to the Appeal Board. In November 1986, while such appeal was pending, the ASLB, at the request of the intervenor, granted an amendment to an earlier Conten-tion which had previously been disallowed. He amended Contention also relates to the question of good cause to extend the construction permit. TU Electric has appealed this action to the Appeal Board. In March 1986, the intervenors also filed a motion to stay the effectiveness of the February 1986 NRC order and a petition for review thereof with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Cir-cuit. He motion for stay was denied in April 1986, and the petit on for review is still pending before i the Court. In June 1986, TU Electric decided no longer to contest, and therefore paid, a civil penalty of $40,000 which was part of an aggregate of $120,000 in civil penalties previously proposed by the Staff of the NRC relating to allegations of harassment and intimidation at Comanche Peak. TU Electric requested the Staff to revisit the other alleged violations to determine whether they did in fact occur and to con-sider mitigating the amount of the penalties. In August 19S6, TU Electric decided to no longer contest, and therefore paid, a civil penalty of $200,000 previously proposed by the Staff of the NRC relating to the findings of the TRT, described above. TU Electric at the same time requested mitigation of another proposed civil penalty of $50,000, relating to two alleged violations in TU Electric's reinspection and cor-rective action effort, which request was denied; and this penalty has also been paid. 31

Comanche Peak Nuclear Generating Station (conerue in December 1986, a portion of a report was released by the Office of Inspector and Auditor of the NRC (OIA Report) containing the results of its investigation of allegations of misconduct by the manage-ment of Region IV of the NRC with respect to Comanche Peak. The OIA Report expressed concern about allegations of harassment and intimidation by Region IV management to pressure Region IV in-spectors to downgrade or delete proposed inspection fmdings at Comanche Peak. In addition, the OIA Report concluded that it would not be pmsible to rely on the Region IV QA inspection as esidence of the safe construct.on of Comanche Peak. Consequently, it stated that it will be necessary for the NRC to l

rely largely on recent detailed technical inspections conducted by the NRC at Comanche Peak. The OIA Report also indicated that the data contained in an internal NRC report on inspection procedures was inaccurate and unreliable due to a lack of understanding by NRC inspectors of the proper method of completing a certain NRC form. NRC officials have indicated that a thorough assessment of the results of this investigation will be made. The OIA Report's findings are restricted to activities in the NRC's Region IV and do not question other NRC regulatory activities with respect to Comanche Peak, in-cluding the detailed technical inspections recently conducted by the 'IRT as discussed above. TU Electric is unable to predict the impact, if any, that the OIA Report might have on future NRC inspection and regulatory activities with respect to Comanche Peak. The NRC has announced that it is creating a new Office of Special Projects to manage all aspects of the NRC's licensing and inspection efforts for Comanche Peak and certain other nuclear power plants, and has named a current regional administrator to head this team. The NRC announced that this office is expected to be operational by hiarch 1,1987. TU Electric cannot at this time predict what effect, if any, this reorganization will have on the Comanche Peak licensing process. TU Electric, Texas hiunicipal Power Agency (Th1PA), Bra:os Electric Power Cooperative, Inc. (BEPC), and Tex-La Electric Cooperative of Texas, Inc. (Tex-La) are the owners of 8M%, 6.2%, 3.8% and 25% interests, respectively, m Comanche Peak under the terms of a joint Ownership Agreement (Agree-ment) which provides that TU Electric is the Project hianager for Comanche Peak. BEPC has failed to make numerous payments of its portion of the costs of Comanche Peak. BEPC has been experiencing dif-ficulty in obtaining additional financing for Comanche Peak from the Rural Electrification Administration. In addition, since hiay 1986, Tex-La has failed to make paytnents to TU Electric for its portion of Com-anche Peak and Th1PA has been making payments under protest. Accounts receivable at December 31, 1986 induJed $55,736,000 of amounts due from BEPC and Tex-La. The portion of future construction expenditures due from BEPC and Tex-La are estimated to be $44,745,000 in 1987, $25,526,000 in 1988 and $6,401,000 in 1989. In hiay 1986, TU Ekctric filed suit in the 14th Judicial District Court of Dallas County, Texas, against ThiPA, BEPC and Tex-La because of controversies which exist under the Agree-ment with respect to the obligations of the parties. TU Electric asserts that each of the defendants has either claimed that it has no further obligation to pay its share of the remaining costs of construction of Comanche Peak, or has claimed that TU Electric has failed to properly construct Comanche Peak or l otherwise has breached its obligations under the Agreement. TU Electric seeks recovery of damages l against Tex-La for its anticipatory breach of the Agreement and asks for a declaratory judgment against Tex La, BEPC and ThiPA declaring among other things that they are obligated to pay their share of the remaining costs of construction of Comanche Peak and that TU Electric has not failed to use prudent utility practices in constructing Comanche Peak in accordance with the Agreement. ThiPA, BEPC and Tex-La have filed cross-actions in such suit against TU Electric and the Company asserting various causes I of action, including a number of alleged breaches of the Agreement by TU Electric and violations of the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA). In September 1986, the Court in the Dallas County suit ruk11 in favor of TU Electric with regard to a plea of the defendants attempting to change the venue of such suit. In June 1986, ThiPA and Tex-La filed suit in the 98th Judicial District Court of Travis County, Texas against TU Electric and the Company. The petition asserts various causes of action, including a number of alkged breaches of the Agreement by TU Electric and violations of the DTPA. ThiPA and Tex-La ask for rescission and modification of the Agreement and payment for damages, including treble damages based upon violation of the DTPA. TU Electric and the Company intend to vigorously contest this suit, which has been stayed as a result of the ruling in the Dallas County suit. Also in June 1986, BEPC fikd suit in the 345th Judicial District Court of Travis County, Texas against TU Electric, the Company and hiining Company and Texas Utilities Services Inc., also subsidiaries of the Company. BEPC alkves that the defendants have breached the Agreement, certain implied warranties 32 and fiduciary duties, and have been grossly negligent, acted with willful misconduct and have siolated the l

/ DTPA and Texas and federal securities laws. BEPC asks for an injunction against efforts by the defen-dants to recover additional payments, rescission and reformation of the Agreement and payment fcir damages, trebled pursuant to the DTPA. BEPC alleges actual damages to date of at least $216 million. He defendants intend to vigorously contest this suit, which has been stayed as a result of the ruling in the Dallas County suit. As a result of the Company's regular annual review of its construction program, in November 1986, the Company estimated that all reanalysis, reinspection, rework and testing activity prerequisite to the loading of fuel in Unit 1 of Comanche Peak will be complete in early 1988. Based on this estimate, the Company estimated that commercial operation of this unit will be achievable in early 1989. He Com-pany also estimated that Unit 2 will not be ready for commercial operation until after the 1989 summer peak season. If licensing approvals are obtained so as to permit commercial operation of these units at these times, the total cost for TU Electric's share of the plant, excluding AFUDC, is estimated to be $4.63 billion. TU Electric's estimated cost for its share, including AFUDC, is $6.70 billion or about $3,300 per kilowatt. He total cost of the plant, excluding AFUDC, is estimated to be $5.27 billion. Becauw of uncertainties regarding payments by the other owners of Comanche Peak of their share of the remaining construction costs, no estimate of the amount of AFUDC that may be attributable to their in-terests in the plant has been made. The Company had previously estimated in November 1985, that commercial operation of Unit I would be achievable by mid-1987 and Unit 2 by the end of 1987 if the necessary licensing approvals were obtained. The total cost of TU Electric's share of the plant was estimated at that time to be $4.64 billion, including AFUDC, or $2,297 per kilowatt. However, in April 1986, the Company announced that such schedule was no longer achievable and in July 1986, announc-ed that the reanalysis, reinspection, corrective action program, and the hearing process before the ASLB could not be completed in time for commercial operation of Unit I for the 1988 summer peak season and that, therefore, it was making other arrangements to obtain additional capacity in the interim. Failure to secure timely and favorable regulatory approvals or further dehys occasioned by additional reanalysis, reinspection or rework will increase the cost of the plant and will likely increase financing re-quirements. At December 31,1986 and 1985, TU Electric's irwestment in Comanche Peak was $4,600,000,000 and $3,615,000,000, respectively, of which $1,284,000,000 has been allowed in rate base by regulatory authorities. TU Electric has indicated that it does not currently plan to include any additional Comanche Peak costs in a rate increase request until Unit 1 is ready for commercial operation and has stated that it believes the initial rate increase that will be necessary to place Unit 1 into base rates can be held to about 10% Such rate application may be subject to challenge with respect to the prudence of certain costs, for which an estimate is not present!y determinable. (See Note 12.)

Cmling Water Contraas-TU Electric has entered into contracts with public agencies to purchase cooling water for use in the generation of electric energy and has agreed, in effect, to guarantee the principal, $49,130,000 at December 31, 1986, and interest on bonds issued to finance the reservoirs from which the water is supplied. The bonds mature at various dates through 2011 and have interest rates ranging from 5@ to 9% W Electric is required to make periodic payments equal to such principal and interest for the years 1987 through 1991 as follows: $4,387,000 for 1987, $4,387,000 for 1988, $4,396,000 for 1989, $4,423,N)0 for 1990 and $4,435,000 for 1991. In addition, TU Electric is obligated to pay certain variable costs of operating and maintaining the reservoirs. Total payments, including amounts capitali:ed, under such contracts for 1986,1985 and 1984 were $4,833,000, $4,779,000 and $4,766,000, respectively. In July 1983, TU Electric received regulatory approval of an agreement with a municipality for that municipality to assume all contract rights and obligations of W Electric in connection with $102,950,000 remaining principal amount of bonds issued for similar purposes which had previously been guaranteed by TU Elec-tric; E Electric is, however, contingently liable in the event of default by the municipality. Chu Gul Pmpetics-Chaco Energy Company (Chaco) entered into an agreement in 1977 for the rights to over 200 million tons of surface mineable coal krated in New Mexico. The agreement provides, subject to certain limitations, for advance royalty payments, payable over a period of approximately 35 years, which are based upon annual quantities ranging from approximately 4.8 million tons in 1987 to a maximum of approximately S.3 million tons in 1991. Such payments approximated $6.10 per ton in 1986 and are subject to escalation in the future due to inflation. In connection with the foregoing, the 33

Company entered into a surety agreement pursuant to which it has undertaken to assure the performance by Chaco with respect to this agreement. Non-utility property at December 31,1986 and 1985 includes $114,400,000 and $90,700,000, respectively, of minimum advance royalties paid by Chaco under the terms of this agreement. Capacity and Energy Piechase-TU Electric entered into an agreement in 1982 with Tex-La, a 2%% owner of Comanche Peak, whereby TU Electric agreed to purchase an assignment of portions of Tex-La's entitlement to capacity and energy from Comanche Peak in declining amounts over the first eight years of commercial operation of each generating unit. Under the agreement, TU Electric is required to make annual payments to Tex La comprising a pro rata share of operating costs plus a capital charge on Tex-La's net investment applicable to the portion of Tex-Ids entitlement assigned. (See Note 10 concerning litigation proceedings regarding Tex-La's participation in Comanche Peak.) hianin Lake Unit 4 Constmcrion Can llarion-In November 1986, TU Electric announced that it was not economically feasible to construct a fourth unit at the hiartin Lake Steam Electric Station (Niartin Lake Unit 4) and cancelled the project which was scheduled for service in 1994. Pursuant to expected regulatory treatment, expenditures through October 1986, of approximately $36,810,000, including contrac-tor termination costs, have been recorded as a deferred asser to be amortized as approved by regulatory authorities. (See Note 12.) General - In addition to the above, the Company and its subsidiaries are imulved in various legal and administrative proceedings which, in the opinion of the Company, should not have a material effect upon its financial position or results of operations.

12. Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 90 in December 1986, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accoun-ting Standards No. 90 entitled " Regulated Enterprises - Accounting for Abandonments and Disallowances of Plant Costs" which becomes effective for fiscal year 1988.

The Statement requires that when it is probable that an operating asset or an asset under construction will be abandoned that the cost of the asset be removed from plant in service or construction work in progress. At that time, the present value (derived by using the company's incremental borrowing rate) of future revenues expected to be allowed by regulatory authorities for recovery of such cost would be recorded as a separate asset and any difference would be recogrized as a loss. Such calculation would re-quire estimates of when recovery would begin and the length of the recovery period. Application of the Statement to the accounting for the abandonment of hiartin Lake Uni 4 is not expected to have a t material effect on the Company's financial statements. He Statement also requires that when it becomes probable that part of the cost of a recently com-pleted plant will be disallowed for rate-making purposes and a reasonable estimate of the amount of the disallowance can be made, that amount shall be deducted from the reported cost of the plant and recognized as a loss. The final provision of the Statement requires that an allowance for funds used dur-ing construction be capitalized only if it is probable that those costs are allowable for rate-making purposes.
