its Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan
dated May 21, 1996, contained in Registration
Statement No. 333-04813
December 26, 1996
Dear Shareholder:
Pennsylvania Enterprises, Inc. has amended its Dividend Reinvestment
and Stock Purchase Plan (the "DRIP") to eliminate the requirement that at least
80% of the net proceeds received by the Company from the sale of its common
stock to DRIP participants be made available to PG Energy Inc. ("PGE"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In the future the Company, at its
option, will either utilize the net proceeds it receives from the sale of its
common stock to DRIP participants for its general corporate purposes or will
make all or a portion of such proceeds available to PGE or to one or more of the
Company's other subsidiaries for the repayment of debt, for payment of capital
expenditures and/or for other corporate purposes.
Any questions with respect to the foregoing amendment to the DRIP may
be directed to the Company's Investor Relations Department at 1-800-379-4768.
Sincerely,
PENNSYLVANIA ENTERPRISES, INC.
By: /s/ Thomas F. Karam
