           DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN FOR DIRECTORS OF SUBSIDIARIES OF
                             TEXAS UTILITIES COMPANY

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.        Plan Description - The Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of
          ----------------
          Subsidiaries of Texas Utilities Company (Plan) was approved and
          authorized by the Board of Directors of TXU Corp. (TXU or Company), on
          February 9, 1998, effective April 1, 1998. Members of the boards of
          directors and/or advisory boards of directors of participating
          subsidiaries of the Company who are not current or former officers or
          employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries (Outside
          Directors) are eligible to participate in the Plan. The Plan allows
          Outside Directors of the Company to defer a percentage of their
          compensation, which is defined as the annual retainer, exclusive of
          any attendance fee or other compensation. The maturity period, elected
          by the participants, is not fewer than 3 years and not more than 10
          years. In the event a participant's service is terminated because of
          death or disability, all amounts in the participant's account shall
          mature upon such termination. If the participant terminates service
          prior to the end of a Plan Year, the deferred amount and the dividend
          equivalent credits will be recomputed as of the termination date. In
          the event a participant's termination results for reasons other than
          death or disability, all amounts credited to an account, except as
          provided in the event of a participant's termination prior to the end
          of a Plan Year, shall mature at the end of the applicable maturity
          period.

          The number of participants at March 31, 2000 was 16 and at March 31,
          1999 was 14.

2.        Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
          ------------------------------------------

          Basis of Accounting - The financial statements of the Plan are
          -------------------
          prepared under the accrual method of accounting.

          Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements requires
          ----------------
          the use of significant estimates and assumptions by management. Actual
          results could differ from those estimates.

          Expenses - All costs and expenses of the Plan and its administration
          --------
          are paid by the Company.

          Reversions - In the event a participant's services are terminated
          ----------
          prior to the end of the plan year, the unearned deferred amount and
          dividend equivalent credits will revert back to the Company.

          New Accounting Pronouncements - In June 1998, the Financial Accounting
          -----------------------------
          Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
          Number 133 (SFAS 133) "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
          Hedging Activities." This statement, which is required to be adopted
          for annual periods beginning after June 15, 2000, establishes
          standards for recognition and measurement of derivative and hedging
          activities. The Plan has not yet determined the financial impact, if
          any of SFAS 133.

3.        Plan Investments - The cost, market value and appreciation
          ----------------
          (depreciation) of investments at March 31, 2000 are as follows:

                                  Number of  Historical  Market   Appreciation
      Common stock of TXU Corp      Shares      Cost      Value  (Depreciation)
      ------------------------    --------- ----------- -------- -------------
          March 31, 2000           5,579(a)  $228,903   $165,635  $(67,206)
          March 31, 1999           2,476(b)  $100,037   $103,974    $4,201


-------------------
(a) Represents 0.0021% of the outstanding shares of common stock of TXU
(263,726,119 at March 31, 2000).
(b) Represents 0.0009% of the outstanding shares of common stock of TXU
(282,332,819 at March 31, 1999).

The investment in the Company's common stock is stated at market value based
upon the last reported sale price on recognized exchanges on the last business
day of the Plan Year. The cost basis of plan investments is determined on an
average cost basis. All costs and expenses of the Plan and its administration,
except expenses incurred in the acquisition or disposition of investments, are
paid by the Plan sponsor.

           DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN FOR DIRECTORS OF SUBSIDIARIES OF
                             TEXAS UTILITIES COMPANY

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

4.        Plan Contributions - Contributions by participating Outside Directors
          ------------------
          for the years ended March 31, 2000 and March 31, 1999 were $118,000
          and $102,000, respectively.

5.        Distributions Payable - During the year ended March 31, 1999, two
          ---------------------
          participants retired from service as Outside Directors. The value of
          the participants' individual accounts were 154.72 and 103.15
          performance units at March 31, 1999 and the dividend equivalent
          credits earned thereon will be determined at the end of their
          respective maturity period and distributed to the participants.

6.        Federal Income Taxes - The Plan does not, and is not intended to, meet
          --------------------
          the requirements of a tax-qualified plan under Section 401(a) of the
          Internal Revenue Code (Code). Therefore, the trust which the Company
          has established under the Plan in order to provide Plan benefits is
          not exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501 (a) of the
          Code.

          Based on the Code and the regulations thereunder as currently in
          effect:

          (a)  A participant's elective deferrals under the Plan, and any
               dividends, interest or other income thereon will not be subject
               to federal income tax until the year such amounts are paid or
               otherwise made available to the participant.

          (b)  Elective deferrals under the Plan are not deductible by the
               participant on his or her federal income tax return, since
               elective deferrals are not includable in the participant's
               income.

          (c)  Amounts distributed under the Plan will be taxable as ordinary
               income to the participant in the year of such distribution.

7.        Amendment or Termination - The Company's Board of Directors may amend,
          ------------------------
          terminate, or suspend the Plan at any time. An amendment or
          modification of the Plan may affect active participants as well as
          future participants, but no amendment or modification of the Plan for
          any reason may diminish any participant's account as of the effective
          date thereof. Upon termination of the Plan, the deferred amount and
          dividend equivalent credits will be recomputed as of the date of
          termination.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Organization and Compensation Committee,
  Deferred Compensation Plan
  for Directors of Subsidiaries of Texas Utilities Company:

We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of the
Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors of Subsidiaries of Texas Utilities
Company (the "Plan") as of March 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related statements
of income and changes in plan equity for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial condition of the Plan at March 31, 2000 and
1999, and the related plan income and changes in plan equity for the years then
ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
