Safe Harbor Statement
Forward Looking Statements
This presentation contains forward-looking statements, which are subject to
various risks and uncertainties.  Discussion of risks and uncertainties that could
cause actual results to differ materially from management's current projections,
forecasts, estimates and expectations is contained in EFH Corp.'s filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In addition to the risks and
uncertainties set forth in EFH Corp.'s SEC filings, the forward-looking statements
in this presentation regarding the company’s natural gas hedging program could
be affected by, among other things: changes in the ERCOT electricity market,
including a regulatory or legislative change, that results in wholesale electricity
prices not generally moving with natural gas prices; any decrease in market heat
rates as the program generally does not mitigate exposure to changes in market
heat rates; the unwillingness or failure of any hedge counterparty or the lenders
under
the
commodity
collateral
posting
facility
to
perform
their
respective
obligations;
or
any
other
event
that
results
in
the
inability
to
continue
to
use
a
first
lien on TCEH’s assets to secure a substantial portion of the hedges under the
program.
Regulation G
This presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of
these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is included in the
appendix to this presentation.

The debt capacity numbers presented above are for informational purposes only and should not be relied upon in connection with any investment decision regarding the securities of EFH Corp.
or its subsidiaries. The amounts are estimates based on EFH Corp.'s current interpretation of the covenants set forth in its and its subsidiaries' applicable debt agreements and do not take into
account exceptions in the agreements that may allow for the incurrence of additional secured debt, including, but not limited to, acquisition debt, coverage ratio debt, refinancing debt, capital
leases and hedging obligations.  Moreover, such amounts could change from time to time as a result of, among other things, the termination of any debt agreement (or specific terms therein) or
a change in the debt agreement that results from negotiations with new or existing lenders.  In addition, covenants included in agreements governing additional, future debt may impose greater
or lesser restrictions on the incurrence of secured debt by EFH Corp. and its subsidiaries.  Consequently, the actual amount of senior secured debt that EFH Corp. and its subsidiaries are
permitted to incur under their respective debt agreements could be materially different than the amounts provided above. EFH Corp. encourages you to review,  in consultation with your own
advisors, its and its subsidiaries’ various debt agreements, which are on file with the SEC, in order to assess the ability and capacity of EFH Corp. and its subsidiaries to incur additional debt
(secured and unsecured) in the future.

Financial Definitions
Measure
Definition
Adjusted (non-GAAP)
Operating Results
Net income (loss) adjusted for items representing income or losses that are not reflective of underlying operating results.  These
items include unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses, noncash impairment charges and other charges, credits or gains that
are unusual or nonrecurring.  EFH Corp. uses adjusted (non-GAAP) operating results as a measure of performance and believes
that analysis of its business by external users is enhanced by visibility to both net income (loss) prepared in accordance with
GAAP and adjusted (non-GAAP) operating earnings (losses).
Adjusted EBITDA
(non-GAAP)
EBITDA adjusted to exclude interest income, noncash items, unusual items, results of discontinued operations and other
adjustments allowable under the EFH Corp. senior secured notes indenture.  Adjusted EBITDA plays an important role in respect of
certain covenants contained in this indenture.  Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be an alternative to GAAP results as a measure
of operating performance or an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity or an alternative to any
other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP, nor is it intended to be used as a measure of free cash
flow available for EFH Corp.’s discretionary use, as the measure excludes certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax
payments and other debt service requirements.  Because not all companies use identical calculations, Adjusted EBITDA may not be
comparable
to
similarly
titled
measures
of
other
companies.
See
EFH
Corp.’s
filings
with
the
SEC
for
a
detailed
reconciliation
of
EFH Corp.’s net income prepared in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA.
Competitive Business
Results
Refers to the combined results of the Competitive Electric segment and Corporate & Other.
Contribution Margin (non-
GAAP)
Operating revenues less fuel, purchased power costs, and delivery fees, plus or minus net gain (loss) from commodity hedging and
trading activities, which on an adjusted (non-GAAP) basis, exclude unrealized gains and losses.
EBITDA
(non-GAAP)
Net income (loss) before interest expense and related charges, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization.
GAAP
Generally accepted accounting principles. 
Purchase Accounting
The purchase method of accounting for a business combination as prescribed by GAAP, whereby the purchase price of a business
combination
is
allocated
to
identifiable
assets
and
liabilities
(including
intangible
assets)
based
upon
their
fair
values.
The
excess
of the purchase price over the fair values of assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Depreciation and amortization due to
purchase accounting represents the net increase in such noncash expenses due to recording the fair market values of property,
plant and equipment, debt and other assets and liabilities, including intangible assets such as emission allowances, customer
relationships and sales and purchase contracts with pricing favorable to market prices at the date of the Merger.  Amortization is
reflected in revenues, fuel, purchased power costs and delivery fees, depreciation and amortization and interest expense in the
income statement.
Regulated Business
Refers to the results of the Regulated Delivery segment, which consists largely of EFH Corp.’s investment in Oncor.
