___________
(a)
Purchase accounting adjustments include amortization of the intangible net asset value of retail and wholesale power sales agreements, environmental credits, coal purchase contracts, nuclear fuel contracts and power purchase agreements and the stepped up value of nuclear fuel. Also include certain credits and gains on asset sales not recognized in net income due to purchase accounting. Twelve months ended 2012 also reflects the write-down of mineral interests in third quarter 2012.
(b)
Noncash compensation expenses represent amounts recorded under stock-based compensation accounting standards and exclude capitalized amounts.
(c)
Transition and business optimization costs include certain incentive compensation expenses, as well as professional fees and other costs related to supply chain and information technology efficiency initiatives. 2012 also includes costs related to generation plant reliability.
(d)
Transaction and merger expenses primarily represent Sponsor Group management fees.
(e)
Restructuring and other in the nine and twelve months ended 2013 includes costs associated with EFH Corp.'s liability management program. The amount in the twelve months ended September 30, 2012 reflects reversal of a severance accrual.
(f)
Charges related to pension plan actions resulted from the termination and payout of pension obligations for active nonunion employees of EFH Corp.'s competitive businesses and the assumption by Oncor under a new Oncor pension plan of all of EFH Corp.'s pension obligations to retirees and terminated vested participants. The charges represent actuarial losses previously recorded as other comprehensive income.
(g)
Expenses incurred to upgrade or expand a generation station represent noncapital outage costs.
