      As of June 30, 1996, Allegheny Power System, Inc. ("APS") has made
capital contributions to AYP Capital, Inc. ("AYP Capital") totaling
$4,455,428.35.  During the second quarter, AYP Capital performed studies and
completed preliminary development activities in connection with the ownership
of companies in the areas of emerging technologies closely related to APS's
core business.  Other specific activities performed by AYP Capital during the
second quarter are shown below.

I.    Description of Activities

      A.    Consulting and Engineering Services

            AYP Capital provided engineering and consulting services to
            nonaffiliated entities and completed preliminary development and
            marketing activities associated with the provision of such
            services to nonaffiliated entities.
            
      B.    Energy Management Services - APS Cogenex

            AYP Capital and EUA-Cogenex agreed to cease joint marketing
            activities for energy management services under the terms of their
            joint venture agreement for APS Cogenex.  Pending resolution of
            outstanding jobs, the APS Cogenex joint venture continues to
            exist.

      C.    EWGs and FUCOs

            AYP Capital, through the Latin American Energy and Electricity
            Fund I, L.P. ("FondElec"), a limited partnership formed to invest
            in and develop electric energy opportunities in Latin America,
            continued to investigate FUCO investments.  On May 8, 1996,
            Fondelec acquired an interest in the electric distribution company
            in the province of Entre Rios, Argentina for $12,060,604.58, of
            which AYP Capital's share was $1,200,030.16.  As of the end of the
            second quarter of 1996, AYP Capital has invested $1,942,434.80 in
            Fondelec. 

            AYP Capital continued to seek and receive necessary regulatory
            approvals to purchase Duquesne Light Company's 50% interest in
            Unit No. 1 of the Fort Martin Power Station.  AYP Capital's 
            limited purpose subsidiary, AYP Energy, Inc., has received its
            certification as an exempt wholesale generator ("EWG") from FERC.  
            Pending certain additional regulatory approvals, AYP Energy
            expects to close on the purchase in the third quarter of 1996.

      D.    Real Estate Activities

                  Acting as agent on behalf of APS, AYP Capital performed
                  studies and completed preliminary activities in connection
                  with the potential development of non-utility real estate
                  assets owned by APS subsidiaries.

II.   Guarantees or assumption of liabilities by APS on behalf of AYP Capital
      or its subsidiaries
