12<PAGE>
plants, and electric and gas distribution facilities, including
all such properties which are outside the State in which the
c l a i m ants and their subsidiaries are organized and all
transmission or pipelines which deliver or receive electric energy
or gas at the borders of such State.
The only properties to which this question applies are the
following properties of Tampa Electric, Peoples Gas System
division and Hardee Power Partners:
Tampa Electric
Tampa Electric had five electric generating plants and four
combustion turbine units in service with a total net generating
capability at Dec. 31, 1997 of 3,600 megawatts (MW) including Big
Bend (1,742-MW capability for four coal units), Gannon (1,180-MW
capability for six coal units), Hookers Point (200-MW capability
for five oil units), Phillips (34-MW capability for two diesel
units), Polk (250-MW capability from integrated gasification
combined cycle (IGCC) unit) and four combustion turbine units
located at the Big Bend and Gannon stations (194 MWs). Capability
as used herein represents the demonstrable dependable load
carrying abilities of the generating units during peak periods as
proven under actual operating conditions. Units at Hookers Point
went into service from 1948 to 1955, at Gannon from 1957 to 1967,
and at Big Bend from 1970 to 1985. The Polk IGCC unit began
commercial operation in September 1996. In 1991, Tampa Electric
purchased two power plants (Dinner Lake and Phillips) from the
Sebring Utilities
Commission (Sebring). Dinner Lake and Phillips were placed in
service by Sebring in 1966 and 1983, respectively. In March 1994,
Tampa Electric placed Dinner Lake on long-term reserve standby.
Tampa Electric owns 182 substations having an aggregate
transformer capacity of 16,326,356 KVA. The transmission system
consists of approximately 1,198 pole miles of high voltage
transmission lines, and the distribution system consists of 6,894
pole miles of overhead lines and 2,625 trench miles of underground
lines. As of Dec. 31, 1997, there were 525,236 meters in service.
All the foregoing property is located within Florida.
All plants and important fixed assets are held in fee except that
title to some of the properties is subject to easements, leases,
contracts, covenants and similar encumbrances and minor defects,
of the nature common to properties of the size and character of
those of Tampa Electric.
Tampa Electric has easements for rights-of-way adequate for the
maintenance and operation of its electrical transmission and
distribution lines that are not constructed upon public highways,
roads and streets. It has the power of eminent domain under
Florida law for the acquisition of any such rights-of-way for the
13<PAGE>
operation of transmission and distribution lines. Transmission
and distribution lines located in public ways are maintained under
franchises or permits.
Tampa Electric has a long-term lease for the office building in
downtown Tampa, Florida, that serves as headquarters for Tampa
Electric, TECO Energy and certain other TECO Energy subsidiaries.
Tampa Electric, through its Peoples Gas division, owns 6,892 miles
of distribution mains, plus service lines, meters, regulators, and
other related equipment used in serving natural gas to
approximately 238,000 residential, commercial and industrial
customers located wholly within the State of Florida.
The natural gas distribution properties are located primarily in
the metropolitan areas of Jacksonville, Daytona Beach, Orlando,
Eustis, Avon Park, Lakeland, Tampa, St. Petersburg, Sarasota, Palm
Beach Gardens, Pompano Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, North
Miami, Miami Beach, Miami, Panama City and Ocala, Florida.

property under a long-term lease. The plant has a net generating
capability of 295 MWs consisting of one combined cycle unit

abilities of the unit during peak periods as proven under actual
operating conditions. Hardee Power Partners owns no transmission
or distribution facilities.
