                   RIDER TO PRICING SUPPLEMENT


          In recent years the regulatory environment governing

the electric utility industry in the various states has been

undergoing substantial change.  If the regulatory environment

changes in West Virginia in a manner which leads to a

restructuring of the utility industry in that state, the Company

might at some future time determine to transfer its generating

assets to a sister company, Allegheny Energy Supply.  In that

case, the Company may be required to alter its capital structure.

Although the West Virginia Public Service Commission has been

considering the question of restructuring, and informal

negotiations have taken place among interested parties, no

agreements have been reached to date and it is unclear when, if

ever, such a restructuring might be implemented.  In November

1999, in connection with implementation of the restructuring

mandated by the Pennsylvania Competition Act, the Company's

sister company, West Penn Power Company, completed transactions

in which all of West Penn's generating assets were transferred to

Allegheny Energy Supply.
