Form 11-K Page 6 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS To: The Participants and Administrator of the Savings Plan for Employees of American Water Works Company, Inc. and Its Designated Subsidiaries In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Savings Plan for Employees of American Water Works Company, Inc. and Its Designated Subsidiaries (the "Plan") at December 31, 1997 and 1996 and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audits 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above. Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The additional information included in Schedules I and II is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is additional information required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The Fund Information in the statements of net assets available for benefits and the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the net assets available for plan benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits of each fund. Schedules I and II and the Fund Information have been subjected to the auditing Form 11-K Page 7 procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Form 11-K Page 16 SAVINGS PLAN FOR EMPLOYEES OF AMERICAN WATER WORKS COMPANY, INC. AND ITS DESIGNATED SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Financial Statements NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN - ---------------------------- The following description of the American Water Works Company, Inc. and Its Designated Subsidiary Companies (the "Company") Savings Plan for Employees of American Water Works Company, Inc. and Its Designated Subsidiaries (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions. General - ------- The Plan is a defined contribution 401(k) savings plan covering substantially all full-time employees of the Company who have completed six months of service and are age eighteen or older. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). Contributions - ------------- Participants may contribute up to 10% of their annual compensation up to $150,000 for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, as defined in the Plan. Effective January 1, 1996, the Company began matching 45% of the first 4% of participant contributions. For participant contributions received after January 1, 1998, the Company will match 50% of the first 4% of participant contributions. All matching contributions are invested in Company common stock. In the event of certain circumstances, the Company may contribute additional amounts. Forfeitures, if any, are used to reduce the Company's future contributions to the Plan. Form 11-K Page 17 Participant Accounts - -------------------- On January 1, 1996, a fifth investment option, the Vanguard Index Trust-Small Capitalization Stock Fund, was added for participants' contributions to the Plan. With the exception of the Company's contributions to the Plan, each participant may elect to have their contributions invested in any combination of five investment options in multiples of 1% up to a maximum of 10%. Each participant's account is credited with their contributions and an allocation of the Company's contribution and Plan earnings. Allocations are based on participant contributions or account balances, as defined in the Plan. Benefits to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's vested account. Vesting - ------- Participants are immediately vested in their voluntary contributions plus earnings thereon. Vesting of Company contributions plus actual earnings thereon is based on years of continuous service. A participant is fully vested in Company contributions and earnings thereon after five years of credited service. Investments Options - ------------------- Participants may direct their contributions among any of the following investment options: 1. Vanguard Institutional Index Fund - Invests primarily in common stocks. 2. Vanguard Bond Index Fund - Invests in high grade corporate and/or government bonds of varying maturities. 3. American Express Trust Income Fund III - Invests in a diversified pool of insurance and bank investment contracts. The Fund also invests in short-term investments. Form 11-K Page 18 4. American Water Works Company, Inc. Stock - Funds are invested in common stock of American Water Works Company. 5. Vanguard Index Trust Small Capitalization Fund - Invests primarily in common stocks of small domestic companies. Payment of Benefits - ------------------- Participants may, upon attaining 59 1/2 years of age, elect to withdraw all or a portion of the value of their account. Upon termination of service for any reason, participants may elect to withdraw the value of their account, roll that account value over into a qualified plan or individual retirement account, or defer this distribution until age 65. In all cases, unless earlier withdrawn, participants will receive the balance in their account upon the earlier of attaining age 65 if not then working for the Company, retirement after reaching age 65, death or total disability. Participants may elect to receive a lump sum amount equal to the value of their account, an annuity, or a combination of both. NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES - --------------------------------------- Basis and Presentation - ---------------------- The financial statements are presented on the accrual basis of accounting. Use of Estimates - ---------------- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Form 11-K Page 19 Valuation of Investments - ------------------------ Plan investments are stated at fair value. The Company stock is valued at its quoted market price on the valuation date. Shares of registered investment companies are valued at quoted market prices which represent the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end. Collective income funds are valued by the fund sponsor based on quoted market prices of the underlying investments. Participants' loans receivable is valued at cost which approximates fair value. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Contributions - ------------- Employee contributions are recorded in the period during which the Company makes payroll deductions from the Plan participants' earnings. Matching Company contributions are recorded in the same period. Benefit Obligations - ------------------- Benefit obligations for persons who have withdrawn from participation in the Plan are $69,421 at December 31, 1997 and $26,143 at December 31, 1996 and are recognized in the Plan financial statements when paid. NOTE 3 - INVESTMENTS - -------------------- The Plan's investments are held in trust by The First National Bank of Boston. The following table presents the Plan's investment at December 31, 1997 and 1996.

NOTE 4 - PARTICIPANT LOANS - -------------------------- Under the terms of the Plan, participants may borrow from their accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum of the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their contributions to the Plan including earnings thereon. Loans are generally for a period not to exceed five years, payable in equal monthly installments, secured by the balance in the participant's account, and bear interest at a rate of prime plus 1%. If the participant uses the proceeds to acquire their primary personal residence, the loan may be for a period not to exceed thirty years. Participant loans withdrawn from the Plan totaled $1,001,880 and $350,353 in 1997 and 1996 respectively. Repayments of loans to the Plan totaled $380,629 and $124,837 in 1997 and 1996, respectively. Form 11-K Page 22 NOTE 5 - HARDSHIP WITHDRAWALS - ----------------------------- Participants under age 59 1/2 may withdraw all or part of their contributions (excluding earnings) only under certain hardship conditions.

Hardship withdrawals cannot be returned to the Plan and contributions cannot be made to the Plan for 12 months after a hardship withdrawal has been made. NOTE 6 - ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES - -------------------------------- Although it has no obligation to do so, the Company pays substantially all administrative expenses of the Plan. NOTE 7 - PLAN TERMINATION - ------------------------- Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100 percent vested in their accounts. NOTE 8 - FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS - ----------------------------------- The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a letter dated April 15, 1995, that the Plan and related trusts are designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code and are, therefore, not subject to tax under present income tax law. Management is not aware of any course of action or series of events that have occurred that might adversely affect the Plan's qualified status.
