(a) The Company sold its Martinka mining division and most of the Martinka related coal reserves to an unaffiliated
    company.  No return on equity investment associated with these operations has been billed since the division ceased
    mining coal effective July 1, 1992.  All results associated with the Martinka division since then are billed to the
    Parent Company, Ohio Power Company, eliminating any earnings effect to the Company.
(b) As represented by "Cost of Operation" plus "Federal Income Taxes On Operations" reported in Statements of Income -
    Meigs Division.
(c) Sales were to the Parent Company - Ohio Power Company for the Gavin Plant.
