INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
SENECA — Sistema Electrico del Estado Nueva Esparta, C.A.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of SENECA — Sistema EI6ctrico del Estado Nueva Esparta, C.A. as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, stated in constant bolivars. These financial statements have been prepared by and are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in Venezuela. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes . assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As discussed in Note 23 to the financial statements, on February 13,2007 the Company’s main stockholder signed a memorandum of understanding with Petr61eos de Venezuela, S.A. (PDVSA), which establishes the bases of negotiation for the sale of its equity participation in the Company.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of SENECA — Sistema Eltctrico del Estado Nueva Esparta, C.A. as of December 31,2006 and 2005, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Venezuela.

As indicated in Note 20 to the financial statements, from January 21, 2003, the Venezuelan Government and die Central Bank of Venezuela agreed to temporarily suspend the trading of foreign currencies in the country. In connection therewith, they have entered into some Exchange Agreements and issued certain related standards that rule the Foreign Currency Management Regime and establish the exchange rate applicable to transactions set forth in such agreements.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2006 AND 2005
(In thousands of constant bolivars)

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company was incorporated on February 26, 1998 and is mainly engaged in the generation, non-trunk transmission, distribution and commercialization of electric energy in Nueva Esparta state and its interconnection with the National Electric System

On June 3,1998, the National Government issued Decree N° 2552 granting SENECA Sistema Eletrico del Estado Nueva Esparta, C.A., a concession for the exclusive rights to render public electric services in Nueva Esparta State (See Notes 10 and 17).

Significant accounting policies —The main accounting policies used by the Company for the preparation of its financial statements are summarized as follows:

Financial statements in constant bolivars — The financial statements are presented in constant bolivars, for the purpose of eliminating the distortion generated by changes in the price levels in the Venezuelan economy. The General Price Level Method (G.P.L.) was used to prepare the financial statements in constant bolivars. This method consists in substituting the measurement unit used in traditional accounting for a constant currency, restated at the date of the financial statements. For restating purposes, the “Consumer Price Index” (C.P.I.) for the metropolitan area of Caracas was used, which is issued by the Central Bank of Venezuela.

Monetary items included in the balance sheet are presented at nominal value, since they reflect the purchasing power of the monetary unit to the date of the last balance sheet. Nonmonetary items such as inventories, deferred charges, and other assets, property, plant and equipment, capital stock and other income accounts related to nonmonetary items such as depreciations and amortizations are stated in constant bolivars using the ^ factor from the date of acquisition or origin. Operating revenues, costs and expenses and other monetary items are stated in constant bolivars, based on the average inflation factor for the year. The monetary result for the year is calculated applying during the period die inflation rates to net monetaiy assets and liabilities. This represents the result from exposure to inflation for holding net monetary assets or liabilities during inflationary periods (See Note 15).

The 2005 financial statements, previously presented in constant bolivars at that date, are presented for comparison purposes in constant bolivars as of December 31,2006 through the application of the annual variation in the Consumer Price Index (C.P.I.).

The Consumer Price Indexes at the beginning, end and average for the years ended December 31 are as follows:


	2006			2005

At the beginning of year		525.65			459.65
At the end of year		614.83			525.65
Average for the year		565.01			497.13
Inflation for the year		16.97	%		14.36	%

b. Cash equivalents — Cash equivalents include investments in time deposits, maturing in three months or less and National Public Debt Bonds with agreed-upon terms generally under 30 days (See Note 2).

c. Allowance far doubtful accounts — Allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by management based on the estimated amount of doubtful accounts over the basis of specific balances and prior year experience, considering both official and private entities (See Note 3).

d. Inventories — Inventories are accounted for at cost adjusted for inflation, determined under the average cost method, which does not exceed their recovery value (See Note 4).

e. Property, plant and equipment — Property, plant and equipment included as assets during the shares transfer process, are presented at acquisition cost determined by appraisals made by independent appraisers at acquisition date and restated through the application of the corresponding CPI. Property, plant and equipment subsequently acquired are presented at acquisition cost adjusted for inflation. Disbursements for maintenance and repairs are charged to income for the year as incurred, while disbursements for renewals or improvements are capitalized. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method based on the original estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows (See Note 6):


	Years
Transmission system		7-36
Diesel plant		15-30
Distribution system		10-25
Metering equipment		15-25
Computers and software		2-10
Coche plants		15-30
Vehicles and trucks		5-15
Buildings		5-20
Flow Meter		5-25
Communication equipment		5-15
Office furniture and equipment		12

The Company includes within property, plant and equipment* inventories of spare parts that will be used for maintenance or improvement of property, plant and equipment, based on International Accounting Standard (IAS) 16 Property, plant and equipment.

Constructions in progress include the costs of on-going projects and are depreciated upon beginning of operations

f. Deferred charges — Deferred charges mainly correspond to organization and restructuring expenses, which are amortized over five (5) years or less using the straight-line method and are restated for inflation considering its original acquisition date (See Note 7).

g. Accrual for severance benefits — Accrual for severance benefits comprises all the liabilities related to the workers’ vested rights in accordance with the Labor Law and the collective bargaining agreement.

Additionally, the Company maintains an accrual based on experience to cover this liability set forth in the current legislation with respect to the employees* stability.

h. Income taxes—The provision for income taxes represents the sum of the estimated current income tax payable and deferred income taxes, if significant.

Current income taxes are determined by applying the tax rates as established by the current tax legislation to net taxable income for the period. Deferred income taxes have been determined in accordance with Statement of Accounting Principles N° 3 (DPC-3 Accounting for income taxes — Revised August 2003). In accordance with said statement, deferred tax assets and liabilities should be recognized, corresponding to the amount of income taxes expected to be recovered or payable on temporary differences between reported book values of assets and liabilities and their corresponding tax bases.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined by applying the tax rates established or decreed under current tax law at the balance sheet date.

The recording of the deferred income tax is subjected to the assurance, beyond a reasonable doubt, of its realization. Considering current conditions, the Company has not recorded the asset resulting from deferring the tax effect on the aforementioned temporary differences.

The investment tax credit resulting from investments in property, plant and equipment is treated as a reduction of the provision for current income taxes (See Note 12).

i. Accrualfor pension plan and other post-retirement benefits — The non-contributory pension plan and other post-retirement benefits (medical benefit insurance and electric subsidy) are accumulated in accordance with estimates made by independent actuaries and based on the technical discount rate used to calculate the obligation for the projected benefit (See Note 8).

j. Accrual for contingencies — Contingencies are situations at each period closing that might result in a loss for the Company, and the realization of which depends oh the potential occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events. Review of contingent liabilities and creation of corresponding accruals is the responsibility of the Company’s management, based on the opinion of its legal counsel and available judgment elements (See Note 22).

k. Fair value of financial instruments — The carrying amount reported on the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and payable, accruals and other short-term liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Consequently, these items have been excluded from the disclosure of fair value in the notes to these financial statements.

l. Transactions in foreign currency — Transactions in foreign currency are recorded in bolivars using the exchange rates applicable on the transaction date/Balances in foreign currency are presented in bolivars and adjusted at the year-end exchange rate. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in die statement of operations (See Note 20).

m. Revenue recognition — Revenues from energy services are recognized on a cumulative basis in the period earned. At each month-end, Company’s management estimates and records the unbilled energy effectively distributed to its subscribers. As of December 31,2006 and 2005, accounts receivable include Bs. 5,960,304 thousand and Bs. 5,990,906 thousand, respectively, from earned but unbilled revenues. Once approved, decreases in the price of diesel foel granted by the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum (MENPET) are recorded as income in their corresponding period and presented as operating income in the statement of operations (See Note 16).

n. Use ofestimates in the preparation ofthefinancial statements — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Venezuela requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect die reported amounts of assets and liabilities, their disclosure and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Final results could differ from those estimates.

o. Reclassifications — Certain items of the financial statements as of December 31,2005 have been reclassified to conform to the 2006 presentation.

Previously reported Reclassification Restructured


Property, plant and equipment, net	315,696,835	21,754,938		337,451,773

(ENELMAR) was granted the share. On October 19, 1998, Enelmar initiated management of Seneca.

The concession contract mainly provides, among others, for the following terms:

a. The concession for the rendering of electric public utility in Nueva Esparta state will be ruled by the terms of such contract and Decrees N° 138 of the Concession Law on Public Works and National Public Services; Decree N° 368 on Standards for Determining Electric Sector tariffs; and Decree No. 1558 on Standards for the Electric Sector Regulation, of which only Articles 69 and 71 are in effect, since this decree was substituted by the Electric Service Law (See Note 17).

b. The concession for the rendering of electric public utility in Nueva Esparta state will be in effect for 50 years. Exclusive rights of the concession to cany out generation and commercialization activities by SENECA — Sistema Etectrico del Estado Nueva Esparta, C.A. will be for a minimum period of 10 years from the granting date.

The bond shall be renewed on an annual basis and filed with the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum within the first ninety (90) days following the beginning of each economic period.

As of December 31, 2006, the Company maintains a surety bond for a Bs. 2,699,042 thousand to guarantee the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum its compliance with the obligations assumed by the Company under the concession contract (See Note 22).

12. TAX REGIME

Income Taxes

Venezuelan tax legislation considers an annual calculation of a regular adjustment for inflation of its nonmonetary items, which is included in the reconciliation of the net taxable income as taxable or deductible, as appropriate. With respect to property, plant and equipment and other similar assets, this regular adjustment for inflation is either depreciated or amortized over the remaining useful tax life of the respective assets. For inventories, this adjustment is considered in the cost of sale of products upon consumption or sale. The total regular adjustment for the year is determined through the algebraic sum of the various adjustments for inflation of each nonmonetary item. This total reconciling item is considered to be a permanent difference for the effects of the deferred income tax for the year.

In conformity with such legislation, taxpayers subject to income taxes that cany out transactions with foreign related parties must determine their income from exports, and costs for goods and services from foreign related parties, in accordance with certain methods set forth in such legislation. Management conducted the transfer pricing study required to document such foreign transactions, and it did not result in important differences with regard to the amounts included for determining the net taxable income for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.

Likewise, in conformity with such legislation, die Company can cany forward operating tax losses, other than losses from the tax adjustment for inflation for up to three (3) years subsequent to the period in which they were incurred/The deductible tax effect that is not offset with the adjustment for inflation can be carried forward up to the following year after itisincurred. As of December 31, 2006, the Company does not maintain tax loss carryforwards applicable to future taxable income.

In accordance with the Income Tax Law published in Extraordinary Official Gazette N° 5390 dated October 22,1999, the Company can credit ten percent (10%) of new investments carried out during five (5) years after its issuance, and these can be carried forward up to three (3) years following the period in which they were incurred. Such Law was subsequently amended and published on Extraordinary Official Gazette N° 5566 dated December 28, 2001. Management considers that this last amendment sets forth a five (5) year term, from the date it became effective, for the application of investment tax credits — i.e. all investments carried out by the Company until December 28, 2006, may be considered for the effects of credit calculation for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2006, Based on the matters aforementioned, as of December 31,2006, the Company maintained unutilized investment tax credits applicable to future income taxes for Bs. 2,158,745 thousand, expiring in 2007.

Decree-Law N° 3266, whereby the Business Assets Tax Law was issued, published in the Extraordinary Official Gazette of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela N° 4654, dated December 1, 1993, was derogated in Official Gazette N° 38002, dated August 17, 2004, as well as the other standards issued during the development of this Law, effective since September 1, 2004.

During 2006, the Company did not obtain from the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum, reductions in the price of diesel fuel corresponding to such period. These reductions would have partially offset the non-application and/or partial application of the price adjustment factor (PAF) of electric energy, set forth in the Joint Resolution of the Ministry of Production and Commerce N° 089 and that of the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum N° 455, dated April 3, 2002 (Note 16). The financial statements include an operating loss amounting to Bs. 13,834,3 85 thousand and accumulated deficit at that date of Bs. 13,548,717 thousand, originated by non-received reductions. Currently, Company’s management is in the process of evaluating the impact of this situation in the business; future.

As of December 31, 2006, the Company has issued credit notes to Deltaven (diesel fuel supplier) of Bs. 18,908,400 thousand, which are presented in Trade accounts payable.

17 REGULATION AND TAFIFFS

The Venezuelan Electric Industry is ruled by the Electric Service Law, enacted on December 31, 2001, published in Extraordinary Official Gazette of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela N° 5568. This law substitutes the previous Electric Service Decree-Law published in Official Gazette of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, N° 36791 dated September 21,1999, and other legal provisions contrary to this law. The Law provides for the following:

•		The legal, accounting and managerial segregation of the functions for generation, transmission, distribution and commercialization.

•		The opening to competition in generation and commercialization activities.

•		Access to the national energy distribution and transmission system network to other electric service agents, as well as large consumers. Its use shall be compensated according to this law and the regulations issued by the National Commission of Electric Power on this matter.

•		The creation of an unregulated wholesale electric power market for generators, distributors and large clients, especially those engaged in generation and distribution activities.

•		The creation of regulatory entities such as the National Commission of Electric Power authorized by the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum (formerly, Ministry of Energy and Mines), to be responsible for the regulation, supervision, inspection and control of electric service activities and the National Center of Electric System Management and the Wholesale Electric Power Market.

•		Elimination of Article 120, related to the applicability of contractual conditions in cases of concessions granted.

The Electric Service Law provided for the gradual implementation of some of its resolutions, indicating January 31, 2003 as the deadline for the legal, accounting and managerial segregation of generation, distribution and commercialization functions. Nevertheless, on November 6, 2002, this deadline was extended by the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum through January 31, 2004 in accordance to Resolution N° 303. To date, the Regulator has not required electric sector companies to fully comply with the segregation of activities set forth for January 31, 2004. The segregation of

activities in the electric service in Venezuela, including the opening for competition in certain activities might have an effect on revenues and consequently on the company’s assets values. To date, such effect cannot be reasonably estimated.

The regulations related to the Venezuelan Electric Service Law were published on the Extraordinary Official Gazette N° 5510 of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela on December 14, 2000. The objective of this regulation is to develop the provisions of the Law ruling the electric service at national level, including generation, transmission, national electric system management, distribution and commercialization activities of electric power and energy sectors, as well as performance of the agents involved in the electric service.

The National Electric System Management Center (CNGSE) was officially created by the National Government through Decree N° 5026 of the Presidency of the Republic, published in Official Gazette N° 38576, dated December 1, 2006. The main functions of the CNGSE are the control, supervision, and coordination of the joint operation of the National Electric System Generation and transmission Resources. The CNGSE is a state Company under the status of a Limited Liability Company with equity participation of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela through the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum (MENPET).

Despite of its official incorporation, the CNGSE has not started operations. In this regard, the Organic Electric Service Law (LOSE) sets forth that until CNGSE’s start-up, the operation and control of generation and transmission activities of the National Electric system will continue to be performed by the Electric System Operation Office (OPSIS) under the terms established in the Interconnection Agreement entered into^ CADAFE; ENELVEN and EDC on December 1, 1988.

Tariff regime

The Electric Service Law and its regulations provide for the economic regime applicable to the rendering of electric services. Likewise, the Concession Agreement entered into between the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and SENECA clearly defines terms and methodology to be applied for the preparation of subsequent tariff conditions to which it was originally authorized.

In the case of SENECA, on December 30, 1998, according to Official Gazette N° 36612, the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum established the tariffs that the Company should apply to electric energy consumption beginning January 1,1999. It also included applicability conditions and the methodology for their subsequent adjustment and modification for a term of up to four years from that date.

On February 6, 2003, the National Government issued Decree No. 2304, whereby prices of certain goods and services, including power supply, are frozen. Subsequently, on May 5, 2003, a joint Resolution by the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum and the Ministry of Production and Commerce was published in Official Gazette, which temporarily suspends tariff increases derived from the FAP application. However, Article 2 of this resolution sets forth that MENPET might exceptionally approve the application of such factor.

On February 9, 2004, MENPET informed SENECA about the incorporation of its information in the tariff calculation process in order to evaluate its future application. This should generate the benefit of applying the same tariff methodology in all companies within the sector.

Pursuant to Articles 11 and 12 of Official Gazette N° 36612 and communications received from MENPET, the Company applied adjustments related to the application of gas and energy charges (CACE). In connection with the application of the price adjustment factor (FAP), the Company has applied the values authorized by MENPET beginning August 2003. These values did not maintain tariff levels in real terms; therefore, until 200S, the Company has received partial compensation in diesel fuel prices, thus obtaining from the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum reductions in the price of diesel fuel corresponding to 2006 (See Note 16).

During 2006 and 2005, in order to maintain established tariff levels in real terms, management periodically carried out communications with the regulator as to the appropriate current tariff that should be applied if regulation were followed.

18. ELECTRIC POWER SUPPLY CONTRACT

On July 1998, the Company entered into a contract with CVG — Electrificacion del Caroni, C.A. (CVG EDELCA). CVG commits to render services of supply and transportation of electric power to SENECA - Sistema Electrico del Estado Nueva Esparta, C.A, through die payment of pre-established tariffs per each kilowatt of energy transmitted. This contract is effective for twenty (20) years, and clause N° 25 provides for a minimum annual charge, which has not been applied by the parties.

19. FUEL SUPPLY CONTRACT

On July 27, 1998, the Company entered into a contract with Deltaven Sociedad Mercantil, a subsidiary of PDVSA. PDVSA committed therethrough to provide fuel for the generation of thermoelectricity for the internal consumption in Nueva Esparta state. The fuel price is set by the related authorities. This contract will be in effect for five (5) years from the date of subscription, and it will be automatically renewed for equal and consecutive periods. Consequently, such contract will be in effect until 2008.

20. ASSETS AND LIABILITIES DENOMINATED IN FOREIGN CURRENCY

Since 2003, the Venezuelan Government and the Central Bank of Venezuela have entered into several Exchange Agreements that rule the Foreign Currency Management Regime and establish the exchange rate applicable to transactions set forth in such agreements. Since then, the Foreign Exchange Administration Commission (CADIVI) is in charge of coordinating, administrating, controlling and establishing the requirements, procedures and restrictions that the execution of said agreement would require.

CADIVI has issued certain rules related to the registrations, guidelines, requirements and conditions related to the foreign currency administration. The Company has taken all the necessary proceeds to obtain the foreign currencies required for payment of its foreign currency liabilities amounting to US$8,299,891 as of December 31, 2006.

The acquisition of foreign currencies necessary for foreign currency transactions carried out by the Company in the normal course of operations will be dependent upon: (1) the approval of all the registrations requested by the related institutions; (2) the availability of foreign currencies to be established in the application of the standards referred to above; and (3) the actions to be performed by the Company to obtain either the required foreign currencies not requested with the related institutions, or those requests rejected by such institutions.

A summary of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies as of December 31,2006 and 2005, recorded in bolivars at the official exchange rate at year-end of Bs. 2,150 per US$1 (in US dollars) are as follows:

21. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISKS

Contingencies

During 2006, certain claims have been filed against the Company by former employees enrolled in the labor participation program, which are mainly related to difference in severance benefits payments amounting to Bs. 2,741 million.

Appendix 2,11 Assets* Condition

1) 115 kV underwater cable Chacopata-Luisa Caseres de Arismendi Plant

The underwater cable consists of four 28 km, cooper individual conductors of approximately 28km long OF type (Internal oil circulation for cooling) manufactured by Fujikura of Japan and installed between 1975 and 1977. Design capacity of 100 MVA. Discontinuities on the protective metallic mesh caused by anchors and/or deep-sea trawling, have caused inefficiency in the operation of the cathodic protection at least for the last 15 years; therefore the cable should be operated up to 75% of its designed capacity. One of the four cables is kept as a “reserve” and operated when one of die other three is out of service due to maintenance operations or inspection. As a result of such inspection it was determined that two of the four cables have some oil leak apparendy in the Chacopata extreme and are partially under control While awaiting new repairs, the cables are being operated at 60 to 65% design capacity. Repairs consist of identifying the precise point of the leak, applying a seal or other repair technique done at the precise junction and replacing the damage section. These repairs are of outmost priority and should be performed immediately during the second quarter subject to the availability of Fujikura or other vendor managing such technology.

2) Unit 03- MS- 5001P Serial # 244.681

Unit 03 is one of seven Frame 5 gas turbines (diesel operated), manufactured by AEG Kanis, in 1977, installed in the Luisa Caseres de Arismendi Plant. In 1999, the unit was converted in its main components to “High Tech” obtaining an increase in power and a specific reduction in fuel consumption. Since its major inspection (3rd quarter 2004) the unit has operated 16,000 hours. The unit was shut down due to high vibrations caused by a detachment of material from blinding. A boroscopic inspection was performed and it was determined that the second stage blinding and thermal blocks are damaged. The required spare parts for replacement and inspection of hot gases have been ordered from the manufacturer (GE). 90% of these spare parts are already in stock at the SENECA warehouse. Replacing and assembling the unit has already begun according to the current contract signed with GE. Expected date to be in service is April / May 07.

3) Unit 10- PG 6561B- Serial # 832

Unit 10 is one of two Frame 6B owned by CMS Enterprises currently under a leasing agreement with SENECA. This unit was manufactured by GE-Alsthom (GEEPE) in 1999 and put in service during the first quarter of 2000. During its operation, routine inspections have been performed to determine the condition of main components which have shown normal wear considering the type of operation, fuel, weather and air. Since its last major overhaul the unit has operated 30,000 hours (manufacturers recommended interval 32,000 hours). An inspection of hot gases was planned for last quarter of 2006 (manufacturer’s recommended interval for a hot gas path inspection is 16,000 hours); however, such inspection had to be postponed due to suppliers’ delivery delay of certain spare parts. This inspection was then replaced by a major inspection which is expected to occur in mid April. During such time and as a safety measure the unit’s release temperature has been lowered to 490*C and its power reduced to 20MW. During 2006, a series of boroscopic inspections were performed to monitor and deterioration levels of main components were determined.

4) GT Unit 11- PG 6561B- Serial # 837

Unit 11 is one of two Frame 6B owned by CMS Enterprises currendy under a leasing agreement with SENECA. This unit was manufactured by GE-Alsthom (GEEPE) in 1999 and put in service during the second quarter of 2000. Since its last major overhaul the unit has operated 23,000 hours (manufacturer’s recommended interval is 32,000). An inspection of hot gases was planned for the first quarter of 2007 (manufacturer’s recommended interval for a hot gas path inspection is 16,000 hours); however, a delay in the closing down of Unit 10 has caused the hot gases inspection of Unit 11 to be postponed. Consequendy, a major overhaul is to be performed during the last quarter of 2007 or beginning of 2008. During such time and as a safety measure the fire temperature of the unit has been reduced.

5) Los Millanes — La Asuncion 115 kV power line.

High voltage, open air power line interconnecting two substations of 115 kV of the SENECA high voltage ring. This power line, built in 1981, comprises 3 type ACAR conductors with 350 MCM and 80 MVA capacity. The replacement of two towers has been scheduled for March 07. This has already been contracted and the work has begun. At least 3 Km of said power line lack a guard conductor.

Appendix 4.1 Seneca’s Activities

1. The Maintenance Agreement entered into by GE and SENECA dated July 1, 2005 provides that SENECA shall confirm to GE prior to shipping that all payments related to the shipping of spare parts from abroad shall be covered by the guaranty issued by CMS Electric & Gas, LLC, in favor of GE. As explained hereunder such guaranty is no longer in effect and shall not be renewed as consequence of the sale of SENECA. GE could request a payment guaranty for the shipping of spare parts from abroad.

On March 1, 2004, CMS Electric & Gas, L.L.C., issued a payment guaranty in favor of GE which was renewed for the last time on June 29,2006. Said renewal established that the guaranty was to be in effect until December 29, 2006 and would only cover those spare parts and equipment requested in a letter dated June 29, 2006 which confirmed GE’s quotation NO.06-1281 as evidenced by SENECA’s Purchase Order No.38315, up to the amount of USD 956,641.71. In light of such guaranty CMS Electric & Gas, L.L.C., and SENECA signed a Reimbursement Agreement whereby SENECA agrees to repay any and all costs incurred by CMS Electric & Gas, L.L.C., pursuant the aforementioned guaranty. Effective as of March 26, 2007, the Reimbursement Agreement was terminated in all respects and therefore SENECA is released of any payment or reimbursement obligation.

2. The All Risk Insurance Contract NO 01-04-01914-22-001 entered into with Banesco Seguros, C.A., which is in effect from December 14, 2006 until December 14, 2007 establishes as a requirement of the reinsurance contract set forth in Attachment 6 (Insurance Premium payment Requirements Attachment NO 22-06-9-03 Special Conditions) that the reinsurance premium owed from the date of the agreement shall be paid and received by the reinsures before midnight on April 14, 2007. In the event that such conditions are not met, the reinsurance contract shall be terminated on the aforesaid date and the reinsured shall pay the premium calculated on a pro rata basis for the time at risk. Regarding this matter Banesco Seguros, C A., requested authorization to purchase foreign currency from the Currency Administration Commission (CADIVI) in order to pay the reinsurers: however said authorization has not yet been granted.

3. Clause NO 5 (Worsening of Risk of the Especial Conditions for Industry All Risk Attachment) of the AH Risk Insurance Contract NO 01-04-01914-22-001 entered into with Banesco Seguros, C.A., which is in effect from December 14, 2006 until December 14, 2007 states that if during the life of the policy the risk was change, the insured shall inform Banesco Seguros, CA. of such changes by written notice sent within five (5) consecutive days following the date in which the insured became aware of such changes indicating the precise changes of risk. Banesco Seguros, C.A., shall have fifteen (5) consecutive days commencing on the date notice is received to propose amending or terminating the policy. Additionally, it is set forth that the transfer of interest that the insurer has in the properties subject to the agreement shall constitute a risk change fact. On March 2, 2007 SENECA informed Marsh Venezuela, C.A., that upon the purchase of SENECA’s shares and the Equipment by Buyer, the same maintenance programs will continue in effect. Seller has also requested a confirmation that the purchase of SENECA’s shares and the Equipment is not a worsening of risk; about this matter, on March 15*, 2007 Banesco Seguros,

CA. informed the reassurer through Marsh Venezuela, CA. that Banesco Seguros, CA. would keep in effect SENECA’s insurance policies under the same current conditions and including the new holder of SENECA’s shares, PDVSA.

4. Difficulties with diesei transportation/supply: SENECA’s Luisa Caceres Plant has a storage capacity of approximately 12.5 million liters, while the daily average diesei consumption is approximately 1.5 million liters, seven days a week (with peaks up to 1.7 million liter on holiday season). Due to various circumstances (including without limitation, dispatching problems, limited hours of operation at PDVSA’s El Guamache Plant, unsuitable and unreliable transportation, traffic botdenecks, rate disputes with transporters and increased demand on Margarita Island), SENECA’s inventories of diesei fuel have reached an historically low level of 2.8 million liters. Such information is reported daily to the Ministry of the Popular Power for Energy and Petroleum (Electric Room and Internal Market Division), to the National Management Center, to PDVSA and Deitaven.

SENECA could run short of diesei fuel to operate its plants. Prior to Closing, SENECA will continue to take such actions (or undertake new actions) as it deems reasonably necessary to maintain and replenish its inventories of diesei fuel SENECA has previously proposed, among others, the following solutions:

a) to establish a self-dispacth system in El Guamache

b) to extend dispatch hours until inventory replenishment

c) to dispatch on Sundays and holidays until inventory replenishment

d) Once the inventory is replenished agree with PDVSA/Deltaven delivery of product in Luisa Caseres de Arismendi Plant, allowing PDVSA/Deltaven to manage with more flexibility and opportunity the dispatch of fuel, including gas (service stations) and SENECA requirements.

5. On March 23, 2007, SENECA received notice from the regional Labor Authority that a new Labor Contract has been proposed by SENECA’s labor union. The labor contract proposes wage increases in excess of three hundred percent (300%). The first meeting before the Labor Authority is scheduled for March 28, 2007 which was postponed by the Labor Inspector to be held on April 3™, 2007. SENECA will continue to take such actions as reasonably necessary to delay the first meeting and/or postpone negotiations with the labor union until after Closing. If unsuccessful, SENECA may enter into negotiations with the labor union regarding the proposed Labor Contract

6. As mentioned on Appendix 2.6, on March 8th, 2007 SENECA received assessment N° J-H.04-2007 issued by the Mayor’s Office Tax Department of the Garcia Municipality, in connection with years 1998 to 2006 for the amount of Bs. 61,939,223,059.00, based on Municipality’s Ordinance on Industrial and Commercial License and the Municipal Ordinance on Urban Property Tax. To this respect, SENECA filed defense arguments before the Garcia Municipality’s Tax Department on March 27th, 2007.

7. As describe on Appendix 2.7, there are current and potential litigation in which SENECA is either the plaintiff or defendant processed before the Courts there mentioned. On the Appendix 2.7 all current criminal complaints are also described; in all of which SENECA is the victim.

8. As described in detail on Appendix 2.11, on the assets there mentioned some activities are being carried out or need to be carried out as established on the aforementioned Appendix.

9. As describe don Appendix 2.13, there are potential environmental liabilities against which SENECA continues to take corrective actions to bring these measures into compliance including the notification of these situations to the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources.
