Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K 24 Signatures 25 -i- CENTERIOR ENERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES, THE CLEVELAND ELECTRIC ILLUMINATING COMPANY AND THE TOLEDO EDISON COMPANY NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (1) Interim Financial Statements Centerior Energy Corporation (Centerior Energy) is the parent company of Centerior Service Company (Service Company); two electric utilities, The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company (Cleveland Electric) and The Toledo Edison Company (Toledo Edison); and four other wholly owned subsidiaries. The two utilities are referred to collectively herein as the "Operating Companies". Centerior Energy, Cleveland Electric and Toledo Edison are referred to collectively herein as the "Companies". The comparative income statement and balance sheet and the related statement of cash flows of each of the Companies have been prepared from the records of each of the Companies without audit by independent public accountants. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of financial position at March 31, 1995 and results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 have been included. All such adjustments were normal recurring adjustments. These financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Companies' combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994 (1994 Form 10-K). These interim period financial results are not necessarily indicative of results for a 12-month period. (2) Equity Distribution Restrictions The Operating Companies can make cash available for the funding of Centerior Energy's common stock dividends by paying dividends on their respective common stock, which is held solely by Centerior Energy. Federal law prohibits the Operating Companies from paying dividends out of capital accounts. However, the Operating Companies may pay preferred and common stock dividends out of appropriated retained earnings and current earnings. At March 31, 1995, Cleveland Electric and Toledo Edison had $177.6 million and $119.1 million, respectively, of appropriated retained earnings for the payment of dividends. However, Toledo Edison is prohibited from paying a common stock dividend by a provision in its mortgage that essentially requires such dividends to be paid out of the total balance of retained earnings, which currently is a deficit. (3) Common Stock Dividends Cash dividends per common share declared by Centerior Energy during the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 were as follows: 1995 1994 Paid February 15 $.20 $.20 Paid May 15 .20 .20 Common stock cash dividends declared by Cleveland Electric during the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 were as follows: 1995 1994 (millions) Paid in February $ - $18.6 Toledo Edison did not declare any common stock dividends during the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994. (4) Financing Activity During the three months ended March 31, 1995, one of Centerior Energy's nonutility subsidiaries repaid $0.7 million of long-term debt. In addition, the Operating Companies retired debt and preferred stock as follows: Cleveland Electric Mandatory redemptions consisted of $11.1 million of Serial Preferred Stock, $9.125 Series N, and $0.8 million of bank loans. Toledo Edison Mandatory redemptions consisted of $4 million of unsecured notes, bank loans and other long-term debt. (5) Regulatory Matters The Operating Companies are subject to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 71, which governs the accounting for the effects of certain types of regulation. Under SFAS 71, regulatory assets are recorded which represent probable future revenues associated with certain deferred costs to be recovered from customers through the ratemaking process. Total regulatory assets at March 31, 1995 approximated $2.2 billion, $1.3 billion and $0.9 billion for Centerior Energy, Cleveland Electric and Toledo Edison, respectively. In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of". SFAS 121, which is effective for 1996, imposes stricter criteria for regulatory assets than SFAS 71 by requiring that such assets be probable of future recovery at each balance sheet date. Adoption of SFAS 121 is not expected to have an impact on the Companies' financial position or results of operations based on the Operating Companies' current and requested regulatory agreements. On April 17, 1995, the Operating Companies each filed a request with The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) for a rate increase to be effective in 1996. Cleveland Electric's requested increase is $82.8 million in annual revenues and Toledo Edison's requested increase is $34.8 million. The requested rates would result in an average increase of 4.9% in Cleveland Electric's existing rates and an average increase of 4.7% in Toledo Edison's existing rates. The Operating Companies plan to freeze rates until at least 2002 if their rate requests are approved, although they are not precluded from requesting additional rate increases. This plan is premised on the Operating Companies obtaining full recovery of all costs including an acceptable rate of return on equity in order to continue to apply SFAS 71 for financial reporting purposes. The Operating Companies plan to avoid the need for further rate increases through additional cost reductions, an enhanced marketing plan designed to increase retail revenues and other efforts. The Operating Companies will periodically assess their continued compliance with SFAS 71 criteria and the appropriateness of continuing to record additional deferrals pursuant to the Rate Stabilization Program which was approved by the PUCO for the Operating Companies in 1992. They will modify their intended course of action as necessary to maintain compliance. The rate increases are necessary to recover capital investment and increases in costs incurred since the Operating Companies' last rate cases, which were decided in January 1989, and to recover certain costs deferred since 1992. The amounts of the requested rate increases are lower than the authorized limits set forth in the Rate Stabilization Program. The additional cash resulting from the rate increases will strengthen the Companies' financial and competitive position. (6) Commitments and Contingencies Various legal actions, claims and regulatory proceedings covering several matters are pending against the Companies. See "Item 3. Legal Proceedings" in the 1994 Form 10-K and "Part II, Item 5. Other Information" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Also, for Centerior Energy and Cleveland Electric, see "Outlook--Competition--Cleveland Public Power" in their respective "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. At their annual meeting on April 25, 1995, Centerior Energy common stock share owners approved the Equity Compensation Plan adopted in 1994. As discussed in Centerior Energy's Note 11(a) in its Notes to the Financial Statements for 1994 in the 1994 Form 10-K, the option and common stock grants for 1994 were conditioned upon this approval. The Companies continue to seek the necessary approvals to complete the merger of Toledo Edison into Cleveland Electric. The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission and the PUCO approved the merger in July 1994 and December 1994, respectively. On May 9, 1995, the Operating Companies filed the additional information which the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) had requested in connection with the Operating Companies' joint application for approval of the merger, with the exception of an open-access transmission tariff which the Operating Companies intend to file later in May 1995. The Operating Companies do not expect the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to take action on their request for authorization to transfer certain NRC licenses to the merged entity until approvals have been obtained from the FERC and the preferred stock share owners. The Operating Companies are seeking preferred stock share owner approval at meetings to be held June 14, 1995. The merger is expected to be effective in late 1995.

CENTERIOR ENERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Capital Resources and Liquidity Reference is made to "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" contained in Item 7 of the 1994 Form 10-K. The information under "Capital Resources and Liquidity" remains un- changed with the following exceptions: During the first quarter of 1995, the Operating Companies redeemed various securities as discussed in Note 4. In April 1995, Cleveland Electric redeemed $4.3 million principal amount of First Mortgage Bonds, 13-3/4% Series due 2005-A (13-3/4% Bonds), under mandatory redemption provisions. At the same time, Cleveland Electric also optionally redeemed an additional $4.3 million principal amount of the 13-3/4% Bonds at face value and the remaining $26 million principal amount of the 13-3/4% Bonds at 104.58% of face value. In May 1995, Cleveland Electric plans to issue $300 million principal amount of First Mortgage Bonds, 9-1/2% Series due 2005-B. Part of the proceeds will be used to reimburse Cleveland Electric for cash expended in the optional redemption of $26 million principal amount of the 13-3/4% Bonds discussed above. The remaining proceeds will help fund the payment of required sinking fund obligations and maturing securities in 1995 and will also be used for general corporate purposes. Also, in May 1995, Cleveland Electric and Toledo Edison plan to issue $53.9 million and $45 million, respectively, of first mortgage bonds with a 7-5/8% fixed interest rate as collateral security for the sale by a public authority of equal principal amounts of tax-exempt bonds. The proceeds from the sales of the public authority's bonds will be used on June 15, 1995 to refund equal principal amounts of the authority's tax-exempt bonds that were issued in 1984. Concurrently with the refunding of the authority's bonds, Cleveland Electric's first mortgage bonds and Toledo Edison's pollution control notes securing the authority's respective issues will be redeemed. Cleveland Electric's and Toledo Edison's new bonds will mature on May 1, 2025 and May 1, 2020, respectively. Additional first mortgage bonds may be issued by the Operating Companies under their respective mortgages on the basis of property additions, cash or refund- able first mortgage bonds. If the applicable interest coverage test is met, each Operating Company may issue first mortgage bonds on the basis of property additions and, under certain circumstances, refundable bonds. At March 31, 1995, Cleveland Electric and Toledo Edison would have been permitted to issue approximately $329 million and $527 million of additional first mortgage bonds, respectively, after giving effect to the corresponding first mortgage bond issuances and redemptions through June 15, 1995 discussed above and, for Cleveland Electric, the additional mandatory redemptions of $107 million aggregate principal amount of secured medium-term notes during this same period. Under its articles of incorporation, Toledo Edison cannot issue preferred stock unless certain earnings coverage requirements are met. At March 31, 1995, Toledo Edison would have been permitted to issue approximately $60 million of additional preferred stock at an assumed dividend rate of 10.5%. In mid-1995, certain letters of credit now in effect in connection with the sale and leaseback of Beaver Valley Power Station Unit 2 will expire. The Operating Companies are required to procure replacement letters of credit in an aggregate amount of approximately $226 million. The letters of credit now in effect are secured by the Operating Companies' subordinate mortgages. The Operating Companies are planning to secure the replacement letters of credit by a combination of first mortagage bonds of Cleveland Electric and Toledo Edison, with the subordinate mortgage interests being released. The Companies also plan to secure an existing $205 million revolving credit facility with a combination of first mortgage bonds of Cleveland Electric and Toledo Edison. Results of Operations First quarter 1995 operating revenues were virtually the same as for the 1994 first quarter because of the following factors: Changes from First Quarter 1994 Factors Operating Revenues (millions) Fuel Cost Recovery Revenues $ 6.6 Wholesale Revenues 3.5 Kilowatt-hour Sales Volume and Mix (5.5) Miscellaneous Revenues (4.6) Total $ - The increase in first quarter 1995 fuel cost recovery revenues included in customer bills resulted from changes in the fuel cost recovery factors used by the Operating Companies to calculate these revenues. The weighted average of the respective fuel cost recovery factors used for the first quarter of 1995 increased about 17% for Cleveland Electric and decreased about 12% for Toledo Edison compared to the weighted average of the respective fuel cost recovery factors used for the first quarter of 1994. Percentage changes between 1995 and 1994 first quarter billed electric kilowatt-hour sales are summarized as follows: Customer Categories % Change Residential (7.4)% Commercial (0.3) Industrial 1.6 Other 33.7 Total 1.5 First quarter 1995 total kilowatt-hour sales increased because of a 60% increase in wholesale sales (included in the "Other" category). An increase in industrial sales was completely offset by lower residential and commercial sales. Industrial sales increased on the strength of increased sales to large automotive manufacturers and the broad-based, smaller industrial customer group. Residential and commercial sales were negatively affected by the milder winter weather as compared with the 1994 period. First quarter 1995 miscellaneous revenues decreased primarily because the first quarter 1994 amount included the billings to the other utility owners and lessees for overhead expenses related to the refueling and maintenance outage of the jointly owned Perry Nuclear Power Plant Unit 1 during that period. First quarter operating expenses in 1995 decreased 0.2% from the 1994 amount. Fuel and purchased power expenses increased as higher fuel expense was partially offset by lower purchased power expense. The higher fuel expense was attributable to more amortization of previously deferred fuel costs than the amount amortized in 1994. Cost control measures resulted in lower other operation and maintenance expenses. An increase in deferred operating expenses resulted primarily from increased deferrals for depreciation and postretirement benefits other than pensions in the 1995 period pursuant to the Rate Stabilization Program. Federal income taxes increased as a result of higher pretax operating income. First quarter 1995 credits for carrying charges relating to the Rate Stabilization Program increased from the 1994 amount primarily because of the larger base (which is related to net property additions since 1989) subject to the carrying charge calculation. The federal income tax provision for nonoperating income increased accordingly. Lower first quarter 1995 interest charges for long-term debt partially offset higher interest charges for short-term debt. Outlook--Competition--Cleveland Public Power In March 1995, one of Cleveland Electric's large commercial customers, comprising medical and educational institutions, signed a five-year contract for electric service with Cleveland Public Power (CPP) beginning in September 1996 when that customer's contract with Cleveland Electric terminates. The loss of this customer would reduce Centerior Energy's annual net income by about $5 million based on 1994 sales. On May 3, 1995, Cleveland Electric filed a complaint with the PUCO against this customer and American Electric Power Company (AEP) alleging, among other things, that the purchase of power from CPP by this customer is in reality a direct purchase from AEP and, thus, a sham transaction in violation of Ohio's certified territory statute.

THE CLEVELAND ELECTRIC ILLUMINATING COMPANY MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Capital Resources and Liquidity Reference is made to "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" contained in Item 7 of the 1994 Form 10-K. The information under "Capital Resources and Liquidity" remains unchanged with the following exceptions: During the first quarter of 1995, Cleveland Electric redeemed various securities as discussed in Note 4. In April 1995, Cleveland Electric redeemed $4.3 million principal amount of First Mortgage Bonds, 13-3/4% Series due 2005-A (13-3/4% Bonds), under mandatory redemption provisions. At the same time, Cleveland Electric also optionally redeemed an additional $4.3 million principal amount of the 13-3/4% Bonds at face value and the remaining $26 million principal amount of the 13-3/4% Bonds at 104.58% of face value. In May 1995, Cleveland Electric plans to issue $300 million principal amount of First Mortgage Bonds, 9-1/2% Series due 2005-B. Part of the proceeds will be used to reimburse Cleveland Electric for cash expended in the optional redemption of $26 million principal amount of the 13-3/4% Bonds discussed above. The remaining proceeds will help fund the payment of required sinking fund obligations and maturing securities in 1995 and will also be used for general corporate purposes. Also, in May 1995, Cleveland Electric plans to issue $53.9 million of first mortgage bonds with a 7-5/8% fixed interest rate as collateral security for the sale by a public authority of an equal principal amount of tax-exempt bonds. The proceeds from the sale of the public authority's bonds will be used on June 15, 1995 to refund $53.9 million of the authority's tax-exempt bonds that were issued in 1984. Concurrently with the refunding of the authority's bonds, Cleveland Electric's first mortgage bonds securing that issue will be redeemed. The new bonds will mature on May 1, 2025. Additional first mortgage bonds may be issued by Cleveland Electric under its mortgage on the basis of property additions, cash or refundable first mortgage bonds. If the applicable interest coverage test is met, Cleveland Electric may issue first mortgage bonds on the basis of property additions and, under certain circumstances, refundable bonds. At March 31, 1995, Cleveland Electric would have been permitted to issue approximately $329 million of additional first mortgage bonds after giving effect to the first mortgage bond issuances and redemptions through June 15, 1995 discussed above and the additional mandatory redemptions of $107 million aggregate principal amount of secured medium-term notes during this same period. In mid-1995, certain letters of credit now in effect in connection with the sale and leaseback of Beaver Valley Power Station Unit 2 will expire. The Operating Companies are required to procure replacement letters of credit in an aggregate amount of approximately $226 million. The letters of credit now in effect are secured by the Operating Companies' subordinate mortgages. The Operating Companies are planning to secure the replacement letters of credit by a combination of first mortagage bonds of Cleveland Electric and Toledo Edison, with the subordinate mortgage interests being released. The Companies also plan to secure an existing $205 million revolving credit facility with a combination of first mortgage bonds of Cleveland Electric and Toledo Edison. Results of Operations Factors contributing to the 0.6% increase in 1995 first quarter operating revenues are shown as follows: Changes from First Quarter 1994 Factors Operating Revenues (millions) Fuel Cost Recovery Revenues $10.4 Wholesale Revenues 3.7 Kilowatt-hour Sales Volume and Mix (5.6) Miscellaneous Revenues (6.0) Total $ 2.5 The increase in fuel cost recovery revenues included in customer bills resulted from a 17% increase in the weighted average of the fuel cost recovery factors used in the first quarter of 1995 to calculate these revenues compared to the 1994 first quarter average. Percentage changes between 1995 and 1994 first quarter billed electric kilowatt-hour sales are summarized as follows: Customer Categories % Change Residential (8.2)% Commercial 0.2 Industrial (0.3) Other 62.1 Total 1.7 First quarter 1995 total kilowatt-hour sales increased because a 113% increase in wholesale sales (included in the "Other" category) completely offset the decreases in residential and industrial sales. Residential sales were negatively affected by the milder winter weather as compared with the 1994 period. However, commercial sales increased slightly. Industrial sales decreased slightly as lower sales to one large steel industry customer were almost entirely offset by increased sales to the broad-based, smaller industrial customer group. Wholesale sales in the 1994 first quarter were suppressed by soft market conditions and limited power availability for bulk power transactions because of generating plant outages. First quarter 1995 miscellaneous revenues decreased primarily because the first quarter 1994 amount included the billings to the other utility owners and lessees for overhead expenses related to the refueling and maintenance outage of the jointly owned Perry Nuclear Power Plant Unit 1 during that period. First quarter operating expenses in 1995 increased 0.8% from the 1994 amount. Fuel and purchased power expenses increased as higher fuel expense was partially offset by lower purchased power expense. The higher fuel expense was attributable to more amortization of previously deferred fuel costs than the amount amortized in 1994. Cost control measures resulted in lower other operation and maintenance expenses. An increase in deferred operating expenses resulted primarily from increased deferrals for depreciation and postretirement benefits other than pensions in the 1995 period pursuant to the Rate Stabilization Program. Federal income taxes increased as a result of higher pretax operating income. First quarter 1995 credits for carrying charges relating to the Rate Stabilization Program increased from the 1994 amount primarily because of the larger base (which is related to net property additions since 1989) subject to the carrying charge calculation. This increase partially offset a decrease in investment and other income (included in "Other Income and Deductions, Net"). However, the first quarter federal income tax provision for nonoperating income in 1995 decreased from the 1994 amount. Outlook--Competition--Cleveland Public Power In March 1995, one of Cleveland Electric's large commercial customers, comprising medical and educational institutions, signed a five-year contract for electric service with Cleveland Public Power (CPP) beginning in September 1996 when that customer's contract with Cleveland Electric terminates. The loss of this customer would reduce Cleveland Electric's annual net income by about $5 million based on 1994 sales. On May 3, 1995, Cleveland Electric filed a complaint with the PUCO against this customer and American Electric Power Company (AEP) alleging, among other things, that the purchase of power from CPP by this customer is in reality a direct purchase from AEP and, thus, a sham transaction in violation of Ohio's certified territory statute. Some member institutions of this customer have indicated a desire to continue to be served by Cleveland Electric. Cleveland Electric is hopeful that other members will come to the same conclusion.

Additional first mortgage bonds may be issued by Toledo Edison under its mortgage on the basis of property additions, cash or refundable first mortgage bonds. If the applicable interest coverage test is met, Toledo Edison may issue first mortgage bonds on the basis of property additions and, under certain circumstances, refundable bonds. At March 31, 1995, Toledo Edison would have been permitted to issue approximately $527 million of additional first mortgage bonds after giving effect to the May 1995 first mortgage bond issuance discussed above. Under its articles of incorporation, Toledo Edison cannot issue preferred stock unless certain earnings coverage requirements are met. At March 31, 1995, Toledo Edison would have been permitted to issue approximately $60 million of additional preferred stock at an assumed dividend rate of 10.5%. In mid-1995, certain letters of credit now in effect in connection with the sale and leaseback of Beaver Valley Power Station Unit 2 (Beaver Valley Unit 2) will expire. The Operating Companies are required to procure replacement letters of credit in an aggregate amount of approximately $226 million.

Results of Operations Factors contributing to the 4.7% decrease in 1995 first quarter operating revenues are shown as follows: Changes from First Quarter 1994 Factors Operating Revenues (millions) Kilowatt-hour Sales Volume and Mix $ 0.1 Wholesale Revenues (6.3) Fuel Cost Recovery Revenues (3.8) Miscellaneous Revenues (0.2) Total $(10.2) Percentage changes between 1995 and 1994 first quarter billed electric kilowatt-hour sales are summarized as follows: Customer Categories % Change Residential (5.5)% Commercial (1.9) Industrial 5.6 Other (6.6) Total (1.4) First quarter 1995 total kilowatt-hour sales decreased because of lower residential and commercial sales and lower wholesale sales (included in the "Other" category). Residential and commercial sales were negatively affected by the milder winter weather as compared with the 1994 period. Industrial sales increased on the strength of increased sales to large automotive manufacturers and petroleum refineries and the broad-based, smaller industrial customer group. Other sales decreased primarily because of lower wholesale sales to Cleveland Electric as a result of the refueling and maintenance outage of Beaver Valley Unit 2 which began as scheduled in March 1995. The decrease in fuel cost recovery revenues included in customer bills resulted from a 12% decrease in the weighted average of the fuel cost recovery factors used in the first quarter of 1995 to calculate these revenues compared to the 1994 first quarter average. First quarter operating expenses in 1995 decreased 6.1% from the 1994 amount. Fuel and purchased power expenses decreased because of less fuel expense and lower purchased power requirements, both factors resulting from the increased availability of the nuclear generating units in the 1995 period. Cost control measures resulted in lower other operation and maintenance expenses. First quarter 1995 nonoperating income increased from the 1994 amount because of increased investment and other income (included in "Other Income and Deductions, Net") and increased credits for carrying charges relating to the Rate Stabilization Program. The federal income tax provision for nonoperating income increased accordingly. Lower first quarter 1995 interest charges for long-term debt partially offset higher interest charges for short-term debt. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 4.

Rate Freeze Ordinances For background and earlier developments relating to this topic, see "Item 1. Business--Electric Rates--General" in the Companies' Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994. In April 1995, four of the more than 90 municipalities in Cleveland Electric's service area enacted ordinances freezing Cleveland Electric rates in those municipalities through December 1997. The municipalities taking such action are the cities of Parma, Brook Park and Berea and the Village of Brooklyn Heights. Under Ohio law, a municipality may regulate the rates of an electric utility subject to appeal to The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio ("PUCO") if not acceptable to the utility. On May 4, 1995, Cleveland Electric appealed the rate freeze ordinances passed by these four municipalities to the PUCO. Item 6. Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K a. Exhibits None. b.
