PORTIONS AMENDED:

The  registrant  hereby amends Item 7 of its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on
June 16, 2000 to include  financial  statements of  businesses  acquired and pro
forma  financial  information  in  accordance  with Item 7(a) (4) within 60 days
after the due date of the initial  filing.  Except as set forth in Item 7 below,
no other  changes are made to the  Current  Report on Form 8-K filed on June 16,
2000.

ITEM 7:  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS

Financial Statements of Business Acquired:

         The  following  documents,  previously  filed with the  Securities  and
Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
are hereby incorporated by reference:

1. Central and South West Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
   year ended December 31, 1999.
   (File No. 1-1443)

2. Central and South West Corporation's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
   quarterly period ended March 31, 2000.
   (File No. 1-1443)

Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information:

         The  unaudited pro forma  combined  financial  information  included as
Exhibit 99.1 combines the historical  consolidated balance sheets and statements
of income of the  registrant and Central and South West  Corporation,  including
their respective subsidiaries, after giving effect to the Merger as a pooling of
interests.  The  unaudited pro forma  combined  balance sheet at March 31, 2000,
gives effect to the Merger under the pooling of interests  accounting  method as
if the Merger had occurred on the balance  sheet date.  The  unaudited pro forma
combined statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999
and for the years  ended  December  31,  1999,  1998 and 1997 give effect to the
Merger under the pooling of interests accounting method as if it had occurred as
of January 1, 1997. These statements are prepared on the basis of accounting for
the Merger as a pooling of interests and are based on the  assumptions set forth
in the notes  thereto.  Certain  historical  income  statement and balance sheet
items were reclassified to conform with the presentation  expected to be used by
AEP.

         The  unaudited  pro forma  combined  financial  statements  included as
Exhibit 99.1 are not  necessarily  indicative of the results of operations  that
might have  occurred had the merger  actually  taken place on January 1, 1997 or
the actual  financial  position  that might have  resulted  had the merger  been
consummated  on  March  31,  2000 or of the  future  results  of  operations  or
financial position of AEP. The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements
have been prepared from,  and should be read in conjunction  with the historical
financial  statements and related notes thereto of AEP and CSW,  incorporated by
reference herein.

                                                         Financial Statements

1.    There were no material intercompany transactions between AEP,
      including its subsidiaries, and CSW, including its
      subsidiaries, during the periods presented.

2.    The  unaudited  pro  forma  combined  financial   statements  reflect  the
      conversion  of each  outstanding  CSW Share into 0.60 of an AEP Share,  as
      provided  in the  Merger  Agreement.  The  unaudited  pro  forma  combined
      financial  statements  are  presented as if the  companies  were  combined
      during all periods included therein.

3.    The principal accounting policies for both companies' regulated operations
      are to follow the methods used by their respective regulatory  commissions
      in establishing  rates.  The consummation of the Merger is not expected to
      result in any  changes in the way  regulators  treat  allowable  costs for
      rate-making purposes.

4.    The pro forma average number of  outstanding  AEP Shares was calculated by
      multiplying  the average number of outstanding  CSW Shares during the year
      by the exchange ratio of 0.60 of an AEP Share and adding the result to the
      average number of outstanding AEP Shares during the year.

5.    The pro forma  adjustment to common stock and paid-in  capital  represents
      the effects of recording the Merger of AEP and CSW as of the  consummation
      date using the  pooling of  interests  method of  accounting  whereby  the
      common  stock and  paid-in  capital  amounts  are  adjusted to reflect the
      difference  in par value ($6.50 per AEP Share  compared with $3.50 per CSW
      Share) and the exchange ratio of 0.60 of an AEP Share for each CSW Share.
