Pro Forma Journal Entries
------------------------------------
Notes: These pro forma financial statements do not include the impact of the
----- proposed issuance of $471 million of transition bonds, by an affiliate of
JCP&L, to securitize the recovery of bondable stranded costs attributable
to the projected net investment in the Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating
Station. The proceeds would be used to paydown outstanding debt and to
fund decommissioning of the plant (SEC File No. 70-9529).
The proposed declaration and payment of common stock dividends by Met-Ed
and Penelec (SEC File No. 70-9593) does not have an impact on GPU's
consolidated financial statements since such dividends would be paid to
GPU, Inc., the parent company of Met-Ed and Penelec (SEC File No.
70-9593).
