Application for Approval of Settlement Agreement and Request for Procedural
Order.
3. Commencing on July 14, 1999, and pursuant to a Procedural Order issued
by the Hearing Division of the Commission, a full public evidentiary hearing on
the Agreement was conducted.
4. On October 6, 1999, the Commission issued its Decision No. 61973

<PAGE>
2. ADVANCED NOTICE FOR LARGE CUSTOMERS. Section 2.3 of the Agreement is
replaced with and superceded by the following provision:
2.3. Customers greater than 3 MW who choose a direct access supplier
must either (a) give APS one year's advance notice before being
eligible to return to Standard Offer service, or (b) pay APS for all
additional costs incurred as a result of the customer returning to
Standard Offer service without providing APS at least one year's
advance notice.
3. DEFERRAL OF TRANSFER COSTS. Section 2.6(3) of the Agreement is replaced
with and superceded by the following provision:
(3) compliance with the Electric Competition Rules or
Commission-ordered programs or directives related to the
implementation of the Electric Competition Rules, as they may be
amended from time to time, which costs shall be recovered from
all customers receiving services from APS, provided however, that
no more than sixty-seven percent (67%) of the costs to transfer
generation assets to an affiliate or affiliates shall be allowed
to be deferred for future collection under this provision; and
4. RATE MATTERS. Section 2.8 of the Agreement is replaced with and
superceded by the following provision:
2.8. Neither the Commission nor APS shall be prevented from seeking or
authorizing a change in unbundled or Standard Offer rates prior to
July 1, 2004, in the event of (a) conditions or circumstances which
constitute an emergency, such as an inability to finance on reasonable
terms, or (b) material changes in APS' cost of service for
Commission-regulated services resulting from federal, tribal, state or
local laws, regulatory requirements, judicial decisions, actions or
orders. Except for the changes otherwise specifically contemplated by
this Agreement, unbundled and Standard Offer rates shall remain
unchanged until at least July 1, 2004.

<PAGE>
5. GENERATION AFFILIATE. Section 4.1 of the Agreement is replaced with and
superceded by the following provisions:
4.1. Affiliates.
(1) The Commission will approve the formation of an affiliate or
affiliates of APS to acquire at book value the competitive
services and assets as currently required by the Electric
Competition Rules. In order to facilitate the separation of such
assets efficiently and at the lowest possible cost, the
Commission shall grant APS a two-year extension of time until
December 31, 2002, to accomplish such separation. A similar
two-year extension shall be authorized for compliance with A.A.C.
R14-2-1606(B).
(2) The affiliate or affiliates formed under this Section 4.1 shall
be direct subsidiaries of Pinnacle West Capital Corporation, and
not APS.
(3) After the extensions granted in this Section 4.1 have expired,
APS shall procure generation for Standard Offer customers from
the competitive market as provided for in the Electric
Competition Rules. An affiliated generation company formed
pursuant to this Section 4.1 may competitively bid for APS'
Standard Offer load, but enjoys no automatic privilege outside of
the market bid on account of its affiliation with APS.
6. STATUTORY WAIVERS. Section 4.3 of the Agreement is deleted in its
entirety.
7. WAIVERS OF AFFILIATE INTEREST RULES. The Revised Exhibit D to this
Addendum setting forth the Affiliate Rules Waivers is substituted for the
corresponding Exhibit D to the Agreement so that the proposed waiver of
R14-2-804(A) in the Agreement is deleted.

<PAGE>
8. CONFLICTS WITH ELECTRIC COMPETITION RULES. In reliance upon the
Commission's directive in Decision No. 61973 (page 9) that "We want to make it
clear that the Commission does not intend to revisit the stranded cost portion
of the Agreement. It is also not the Commission's intent to undermine the
benefits that parties have bargained for," Section 7.1 is replaced with and
superseded by the following provision:
7.1. Approval of this Agreement by the Commission shall constitute a
waiver of any existing Commission order, rule or regulation to the
extent necessary to permit performance of the Agreement, as approved
by the Commission. Any future Commission order, rule or regulation
shall be construed and administered, insofar as possible, in a manner
so as not to conflict with the specific provisions of this Agreement,
as approved by the Commission. In the event any of the Parties deems a
future Commission order, rule or regulation to be inconsistent with
the specific provisions of this Agreement, a waiver of the new
Commission order, rule or regulation shall be sought.
Nothing in this Agreement is intended to otherwise interfere with
the Commission's ability to exercise its regulatory authority by the
issuance of orders, rules or regulations. The requirements of this
Agreement shall be performed in accordance with the Commission's
Electric Competition Rules including any specific waivers granted by
the Commission's order approving this Agreement, except where a
specific provision of this Agreement would excuse compliance.
9. INTERIM CODE OF CONDUCT. Section 7.7 of the Agreement is replaced with
and superceded by the following provision:
7.7. Within thirty (30) days of the date of the Commission decision
approving this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.1, APS shall file an
initial proposed Code of Conduct to address inter-affiliate
relationships involving APS as a utility distribution company as
required by the Electric Competition Rules and which includes
provisions to govern the supply of generation during the two-year
extension provided for by Section 4.1 of this Agreement. Interested
parties may provide APS with comments on the initial proposed Code of
Conduct within sixty (60) days of the date of the Commission decision
approving this Agreement. APS will file a final proposed Code of
Conduct for Commission approval within ninety (90) days of the date of
the Commission decision approving this Agreement. Until the Commission
approves a Code of Conduct for APS, APS will voluntarily comply with
the initial proposed Code of Conduct or, once filed, the final
proposed Code of Conduct.
