4 Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2000 and 1999 (Unaudited) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) Basis of presentation ------------------------- The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to SEC Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto incorporated by reference in HEI's Annual Report on SEC Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999 and the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in HEI's Quarterly Reports on SEC Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2000 and June 30, 2000. In the opinion of HEI's management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments required by GAAP to present fairly the Company's financial position as of September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, and the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed in this Form 10-Q or other referenced material. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods' consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2000 presentation. 5 (2) Segment financial information ---------------------------------- Segment financial information was as follows:

7 In June 2000, the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) advised ASB that four debt securities in the original principal amount of $114 million were impermissible investments under regulations applicable to federal savings banks. The securities are trust certificates which are rated Aaa as to principal repayment but are not rated as to interest. In the second quarter of 2000, ASB had reclassified these trust certificates from a "held-to-maturity" status to an "available-for-sale" status in its financial statements and recorded these securities at their estimated fair value. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, ASB realized a $3.8 million net loss on the writedown of these securities. Interest income on these securities is being recognized on a cash basis. Additional losses could result from the ultimate disposition of these securities, or if there is a further decline in their fair value. (5) International power subsidiary ----------------------------------- China project In 1998 and 1999, the HEIPC Group acquired what is now a 75% interest in a joint venture, Baotou Tianjiao Power Co., Ltd., formed to design, construct, own, operate and manage a 200 megawatt (MW) (net) coal-fired power plant to be located in Inner Mongolia, People's Republic of China. The power plant is being built "inside the fence" for Baotou Iron & Steel (Group) Co., Ltd. (Baotou Steel). The project has received approval from both the National and Inner Mongolia governments. Construction had commenced and the first of the two units had been expected to be online by early 2001, and the second six months later. However, the Inner Mongolia Power Company (IMPC), which owns and operates the electricity grid in Inner Mongolia, has refused to enter into a satisfactory interconnection arrangement with the joint venture. The HEIPC Group does not believe that it is prudent to continue construction without an interconnection arrangement whose terms are consistent with the project as approved by the National and Inner Mongolia governments. Under the Power Purchase Contract between the joint venture and Baotou Steel, it is Baotou Steel's responsibility to secure an interconnection arrangement with IMPC. The HEIPC Group continues to work with Baotou Steel and IMPC to secure a satisfactory interconnection arrangement. If such an arrangement is not obtained, the HEIPC Group intends to withdraw from the project (including the HEIPC Group's commitment to invest up to an additional $86 million toward the project, subject to certain conditions) and seek recovery of its investment of approximately $25 million to date. Management cannot predict the outcome of such efforts, nor estimate its impairment loss, if any, at this time. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Philippines investment On March 7, 2000, an indirect subsidiary of HEIPC acquired a 50% interest in EPHE Philippines Energy Company, Inc. (EPHE), an indirect subsidiary of El Paso Energy Corporation (EPEC), for $87.5 million plus up to an additional $6 million of payments that are contingent upon future earnings of East Asia Power Resources Corporation (EAPRC). EPHE owns approximately 91.7% of the common shares of EAPRC, a Philippines holding company primarily engaged in the electric generation business in Manila and Cebu through its direct and indirect subsidiaries, using land and barge-based generating facilities fired by bunker fuel oil, with total installed capacity of approximately 390 MW. The HEIPC Group accounts for its investment in EPHE under the equity method of accounting. Revenues for the international power segment for the third quarter and first nine months of 2000 include the equity in net losses of EPHE. The net losses of EPHE do not reflect any U.S. or Philippines tax benefits. The Company consolidates the accounts of the HEIPC Group on a one-month lag due to the time needed to consolidate HEIPC's subsidiaries. At September 30, 2000, the Company's investment in EPHE was $69.7 million and is included in the consolidated balance sheet in "Other" assets and "Goodwill and other intangibles." The decline in carrying value from $87.5 million was due to the equity in net losses, goodwill amortization and a negative $3.5 million foreign currency translation adjustment. The Company evaluates equity investments when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. Due to the net losses incurred in the second and third quarters of 2000 from the investment in EPHE and the changes in the political and economic conditions related to the investment (e.g., devaluation of the Philippine peso and increase in fuel oil prices), management has 8 evaluated the investment for impairment. The Company determines whether an impairment has occurred based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows (excluding interest) attributable to the investment, as compared to the carrying value of the investment. As of September 30, 2000, based upon current conditions and assumptions, no writedown of the investment in EPHE is required for financial statement purposes based on the estimated undiscounted future cash flows (excluding interest) attributable to the investment. However, if estimates or circumstances change, it may be necessary for the Company to adjust the carrying value of its investment down to the then estimated fair value and any such adjustment would likely be material. In connection with and subsequent to the HEIPC Group's investment in EPHE, HEI has guaranteed up to $35 million of existing and potential obligations related to this investment. (6) Retirement benefits ----------------------- Change in method of calculating market-related value of retirement benefit plan assets Since 1993, the Company has determined the market-related value of retirement benefit (pension and other postretirement benefits) plan assets by calculating the difference between the expected return and the actual return on the fair value of the plan assets, then amortizing the difference over future years -- 0% in the first year and 25% in years two to five, and finally subtracting the unamortized differences for the past four years from fair value. For the year 2000 and future years, the method of calculating the market-related value of the plan assets was changed to include a 15% range around the fair value of such assets (i.e., 85% to 115% of fair value). If the market-related value is outside the 15% range, then the amount outside the range will be recognized immediately in the calculation of annual net periodic benefit cost. If the market-related value remains within the 15% range, the Company will continue to amortize the difference over future years using the amortization method previously used. This change in accounting principle is preferable because it results in calculated asset values of the plans that more closely approximate fair value, while still mitigating the effect of annual fair value fluctuations. No range was used in prior years as the market-related value of the plan assets has been within the 15% range at each yearend from 1993 to 1998. Therefore, the cumulative effect of this change is nil. The effect of the change in accounting principle on the first nine months of 2000 was to increase net income approximately $3 million ($0.10 in basic earnings per common share). Change in discount rate The Company changed the discount rate used to calculate the net periodic costs of pension and other postretirement benefits from 6.5% at December 31, 1998 to 7.75% at December 31, 1999 based on interest rates prevailing at the time. The effect of the change was to reduce the projected benefit obligation at December 31, 1999 by approximately $110 million and to increase net income by approximately $4 million ($0.13 in basic earnings per common share) for the first nine months of 2000. (7) Cash flows --------------- Supplemental disclosures of cash flow information Cash paid for interest (net of capitalized amounts) and income taxes was as follows:
Nine months ended September 30, ----------------------------------------- (in thousands) 2000 1999 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest (including interest paid by savings bank, but excluding interest paid on nonrecourse debt on leveraged leases).............................. $205,784 $199,198 ================== ================== Income taxes................................................................ $ 12,214 $ 38,289 ================== ==================
The decrease in income taxes paid for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999 was primarily due to the change in the timing of recognition of the real estate investment trust taxable income. 9 Supplemental disclosures of noncash activities In April 2000, HEI recommenced issuing new common shares under the HEI Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (DRIP). From March 1998 to March 2000, HEI had acquired for cash its common shares in the open market to satisfy the requirements of the HEI DRIP. Under the HEI DRIP, common stock dividends reinvested by shareholders in HEI common stock in noncash transactions amounted to $8.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. (8) Recent accounting pronouncements ------------------------------------- Derivative instruments and hedging activities In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities and requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value. The provisions of SFAS No. 133 were amended by SFAS No. 137 to be effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 133, as amended, on January 1, 2001. Management believes the impact of adoption will not be material. Certain transactions involving stock compensation In March 2000, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation, An Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25," which clarifies the application of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25 for certain issues but does not address any issues related to the application of the fair value method in SFAS No. 123. The Interpretation clarifies (a) the definition of an employee for purposes of applying APB Opinion No. 25, (b) the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a noncompensatory plan, (c) the accounting consequence of various modifications to the terms of a previously fixed stock option award, and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. The Company adopted the provisions of the Interpretation on July 1, 2000 with no resulting material impact to the Company's results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. (9) Commitments and contingencies ---------------------------------- See note (5), "International power subsidiary," above and note (5), "Commitments and contingencies," in HECO's "Notes to consolidated financial statements." (10) Discontinued operations--Malama Pacific Corp. (MPC) --------------------------------------------------------- On September 14, 1998, the HEI Board of Directors adopted a plan to exit the residential real estate development business (engaged by MPC and its subsidiaries) by September 1999. Accordingly, MPC management commenced a program to sell all of MPC's real estate assets and investments and HEI reported MPC as a discontinued operation in the Company's consolidated statement of income in the third quarter of 1998. In the slow Hawaii real estate market, however, the plan to dispose of MPC's real estate assets and investments is taking longer than expected. As of September 30, 2000, the remaining net assets of the discontinued residential real estate development operations amounted to $13 million (included in "Other" assets) and consisted primarily of real estate assets, receivables and deferred tax assets, reduced by loans and accounts payable. (11) Sale of maritime freight transportation and harbor assist operations -------------------------------------------------------------------------- In November 1999, HTB sold substantially all of its operating assets and YB for a nominal gain. 10 Hawaiian Electric Company, Inc. and subsidiaries Consolidated balance sheets (unaudited)

13 Hawaiian Electric Company, Inc. and subsidiaries NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2000 and 1999 (Unaudited) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) Basis of presentation -------------------------- The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to SEC Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto incorporated by reference in HECO's Annual Report on SEC Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999 and the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in HECO's Quarterly Reports on SEC Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2000 and June 30, 2000. In the opinion of HECO's management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments required by GAAP to present fairly the financial position of HECO and its subsidiaries as of September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, and the results of their operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, and their cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed in this Form 10-Q or other referenced material. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods' consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2000 presentation. (2) Retirement benefits ------------------------ Change in method of calculating market-related value of retirement benefit plan assets Since 1993, HECO and its subsidiaries have determined the market-related value of retirement benefit (pension and other postretirement benefits) plan assets by calculating the difference between the expected return and the actual return on the fair value of the plan assets, then amortizing the difference over future years -- 0% in the first year and 25% in years two to five, and finally subtracting the unamortized differences for the past four years from fair value. For the year 2000 and future years, the method of calculating the market-related value of the plan assets was changed to include a 15% range around the fair value of such assets (i.e., 85% to 115% of fair value). If the market-related value is outside the 15% range, then the amount outside the range will be recognized immediately in the calculation of annual net periodic benefit cost. If the market-related value remains within the 15% range, HECO and its subsidiaries will continue to amortize the difference over future years using the amortization method previously used. This change in accounting principle is preferable because it results in calculated asset values of the plans that more closely approximate fair value, while still mitigating the effect of annual fair value fluctuations. No range was used in prior years as the market-related value of the plan assets has been within the 15% range at each yearend from 1993 to 1998. Therefore, the cumulative effect of this change is nil. The effect of the change in accounting principle on the first nine months of 2000 was to increase net income approximately $3 million. 14 Change in discount rate HECO and its subsidiaries changed the discount rate used to calculate the net periodic costs of pension and other postretirement benefits from 6.5% at December 31, 1998 to 7.75% at December 31, 1999 based on interest rates prevailing at the time. The effect of the change was to reduce the projected benefit obligation at December 31, 1999 by approximately $102 million and to increase net income by approximately $4 million for the first nine months of 2000. (3) Regulatory assets --------------------- Regulatory asset related to Barbers Point Tank Farm project costs In 1989, HECO began planning and engineering for a combined cycle unit addition as a contingency in the event an independent power producer was not able to deliver firm power to HECO as planned. Subsequently, HECO's planning and engineering work expanded from contingency planning to adding new generation. In December 1991, HECO filed an application for the installation of a nominal 200 MW combined cycle power plant located at HECO's Barbers Point Tank Farm. Due to changes in circumstances, the expected timing for HECO's next generating unit was significantly delayed, and HECO withdrew its application in May 1993. In August 1994, HECO informed the Public Utilities Commission of the State of Hawaii (PUC) that, consistent with past and current company practices, the $5.8 million in accumulated project costs would be allocated primarily to ongoing active capital projects as part of the engineering clearing. The PUC advised HECO to file an application, which it did in February 1995. The Consumer Advocate objected to the accounting treatment proposed by HECO. To simplify and expedite the proceeding, in September 2000, HECO and the Consumer Advocate reached an agreement on the accounting treatment, subject to PUC approval. Acceptance of the agreement by the parties was without prejudice to any position either of them may take in this or any subsequent proceeding. Under the agreement, $4.5 million of the $5.8 million total project costs will be amortized to operating expense ratably over a five-year period after receiving PUC approval. In September 2000, HECO adjusted the project costs to reflect the agreement with the Consumer Advocate, resulting in an after tax write-off of $0.8 million. The PUC's approval of the agreement has been requested. Integrated Resource Planning costs In 1992, the PUC established a framework for Integrated Resource Planning (IRP) and ordered the companies to develop an integrated resource plan in accordance with the IRP framework. The framework also provides that the utilities are entitled to recover appropriate IRP and implementation costs. Each year, the electric utilities submit a budget of the IRP costs for the upcoming year, and request subsequent recovery of the actual costs incurred. Actual IRP costs incurred since 1995 have been recorded as a regulatory asset, and the electric utilities have been awaiting PUC approval for recovery of those costs. In August 2000, pursuant to a stipulation filed by the electric utilities and the parties in the IRP cost proceedings, the PUC issued an order allowing the electric utilities to begin recovering the 1995 through 1999 IRP costs (over a 12 month period for HECO and a 24 month period for HELCO and MECO), subject to refund with interest, pending the PUC's final decision and order approving recovery of each respective year's IRP costs. On September 1, 2000, the electric utilities began recovering 1995 through 1999 IRP costs through a surcharge on customers bills. As of September 30, 2000, the amount of revenues recorded, subject to refund with interest, amounted to $0.8 million. 15 (4) Cash flows --------------- Supplemental disclosures of cash flow information Cash paid for interest (net of capitalized amounts) and income taxes was as follows:
Nine months ended September 30, -------------------------------- (in thousands) 2000 1999 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest................................................... $24,298 $28,786 ============= ============== Income taxes............................................... $20,941 $17,352 ============= ==============
Supplemental disclosure of noncash activities The allowance for equity funds used during construction, which was charged to construction in progress as part of the cost of electric utility plant, amounted to $4.1 million and $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. (5) Commitments and contingencies ---------------------------------- HELCO power situation Background. In 1991, Hawaii Electric Light Company, Inc. (HELCO) began planning ---------- to meet increased electric generation demand forecasted for 1994. HELCO's plans were to install at its Keahole power plant two 20 MW combustion turbines (CT-4 and CT-5), followed by an 18 MW heat steam recovery generator (ST-7), at which time these units would be converted to a 56 MW (net) dual-train combined-cycle (DTCC) unit. In January 1994, the PUC approved expenditures for CT-4, which HELCO had planned to install in late 1994. The timing of the installation of HELCO's phased DTCC unit at the Keahole power plant site has been revised on several occasions due to delays, described below, in (a) obtaining approval from the Hawaii Board of Land and Natural Resources (BLNR) of a Conservation District Use Permit (CDUP) amendment and (b) obtaining from the Department of Health of the State of Hawaii (DOH) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) a Prevention of Significant Deterioration/Covered Source permit (PSD permit) for the Keahole power plant site. The delays are also attributable to lawsuits, claims and petitions filed by independent power producers (IPPs) and other parties challenging these permits and objecting to the expansion, alleging among other things that (1) operation of the expanded Keahole site would not comply with land use regulations (including noise standards) and HELCO's land patent; (2) HELCO cannot operate the plant within current air quality standards; and (3) HELCO could alternatively purchase power from IPPs to meet increased electric generation demand. CDUP amendment. On July 10, 1997, the Third Circuit Court of the State of Hawaii --------------- issued its Amended Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law, Decision and Order addressing HELCO's appeal of an order of the BLNR, along with other consolidated civil cases relating to HELCO's application for a CDUP amendment. Because the BLNR failed to take valid agency action or render a proper decision within the 180 day statutory deadline (as calculated by the Court), the Court ruled that HELCO was automatically entitled to put its land to the uses requested in its CDUP amendment application pursuant to the default provision of Section 183-41, Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS). This decision allowed HELCO to use its Keahole property as requested in its application. An amended order to the same effect was issued on August 18, 1997. Final judgments have been entered in all of the consolidated cases. Appeals with respect to the final judgments for certain of the cases have been filed with the Hawaii Supreme Court. Motions filed with the Third Circuit Court to stay the effectiveness of the judgments pending resolution of the appeals were denied in April and July 1998 (in response to a motion for reconsideration). In August 1998, the Hawaii Supreme Court denied nonhearing motions for stay of final judgment pending resolution of the appeals. Management believes that HELCO will ultimately prevail on appeal and that the final judgments of the Third Circuit Court will be upheld. 16 The final judgment with respect to HELCO's entitlement to automatically put its land to the uses requested in its CDUP amendment application (which is in part 1 of the final judgment, and is referred to as HELCO's "default entitlement") was entered February 11, 1998. The final judgment states that HELCO must comply with the conditions in its application (part 2 of the final judgment), and that the standard conditions in Section 13-2-21 of the Hawaii Administrative Rules (HAR), the rules of the Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR), apply to the extent the standard conditions are not incompatible with HRS Section 183-41 (part 3 of the final judgment). On August 17, 1999, certain plaintiffs filed a joint motion to enforce parts 2 and 3 of the final judgment (relating to applicable conditions) and to stay part 1 of the final judgment (the default entitlement) until such time as the applicable conditions were identified and it was determined whether HELCO had or could meet the applicable conditions. At a September 23, 1999 hearing, the Third Circuit Court ruled that the BLNR must issue a written decision by November 30, 1999 on certain issues raised in the administrative petition filed by the Keahole Defense Coalition (KDC) in August 1998, including specific determinations of which conditions are not inconsistent with HELCO's ability to proceed under the default entitlement. At a BLNR meeting on October 22, 1999, the BLNR determined that all 15 standard land use conditions in HAR 13-2-21(a) applied to HELCO's default entitlement and that the conditions in HELCO's pre-existing CDUP and amendments continue to apply with respect to those existing permits. The BLNR specifically did not address at that time the question of HELCO's compliance with each of those conditions. The BLNR issued a written decision on November 19, 1999. Certain plaintiffs filed two motions in the Third Circuit Court attempting to implement their interpretation of the BLNR's ruling. On November 2, 1999, those plaintiffs filed a second joint motion to enforce part 2 and part 3 of the final judgment. In that motion, they alleged that the Keahole project cannot meet the conditions relating to compatibility with the surrounding area and improvement of the existing physical and environmental aspects of the subject area. Furthermore, they claimed that the project would be a prohibited use that cannot be placed in the conservation district, relying on zoning rules implemented by the BLNR in 1994 in furtherance of Act 270, which prohibited fossil fuel fired generating units in the conservation district. However, the Third Circuit Court had earlier ruled that Act 270 does not apply to HELCO's application, which was filed prior to the effective date of Act 270. Plaintiffs asked that HELCO be enjoined from placing further structures and improvements on the Keahole site and be ordered to remove all existing structures and improvements. On November 5, 1999, the same plaintiffs filed a third joint motion to enforce judgment. In this motion, they asked that the Court void HELCO's default entitlement on the basis that HELCO forfeited its default entitlement by allegedly electing, through HELCO's construction of the pre-PSD portions of the project, to build a project different from that described in its application. They also requested that HELCO be enjoined from continuing construction activity at the site and ordered to restore the Keahole site to its pre-August 1992 condition. These motions were heard on December 13, 1999 and were denied by the Court. The Court also ruled that any complaints received by the BLNR or DLNR regarding the Keahole project were to be addressed in writing within 32 days of mailing of the complaint. An Order to this effect was issued on February 22, 2000. On April 13, 2000, KDC and an individual plaintiff filed a fourth motion to enforce the judgment, which substantially reiterates their second joint motion dated November 2, 1999 (see above) and a motion for sanctions against the BLNR. In light of a BLNR hearing on April 14, 2000, a stipulation to withdraw these motions was filed, and the plaintiffs indicated that they would refile the fourth motion after the written order from the BLNR is issued. On June 21, 2000, the same plaintiffs filed a fifth joint motion to enforce judgment, generally restating the claims in the second and fourth motions. On July 7, 2000, Department of Hawaiian Home Lands filed a joinder in that motion and on July 12, 2000 Waimana also filed a joinder. A hearing was held on August 28, 2000. At that hearing, the main issue was how the three-year construction period in the standard land use conditions would be applied to the Keahole project, and there was discussion as to whether the BLNR's August 16, 2000 order (see "BLNR petitions" herein) had addressed that issue and the related issue of whether HELCO was in compliance with that condition. The Court took the matter under advisement. Because discussion at the August 28, 2000 hearing had raised the question of whether KDC and an individual plaintiff had specifically posed certain questions to the BLNR in their February 7, 2000 Request to Nullify, on August 31, 2000 HELCO filed a letter with the BLNR requesting specific rulings on these issues. In response, on September 5, 2000, KDC and the individual plaintiff filed an ex-parte 17 motion to file a memorandum in response to HELCO's letter and filed the memorandum itself, which claimed that HELCO's letter was an improper communication with the Court while a matter was pending decision. On September 6, 2000, the Court granted the ex-parte motion and set a hearing for September 18, 2000. At the hearing, the Court ruled to strike HELCO's letter from the Court record and ruled that, as a matter of law, absent any legal or equitable extension authorized by the BLNR pursuant to legal authority, the three-year construction deadline expired on April 26, 1999. The Court also denied KDC and the individual plaintiff's request for an injunction barring further construction. HELCO filed a request for extension with BLNR on October 20, 2000. Management believes the extension will be obtained. Because substantially all of the pre- PSD construction has been completed and because HELCO is awaiting the necessary PSD permit before the generating units can be installed, it is not anticipated that the Court's ruling will have any immediate impact on project construction. For other developments regarding these issues, see "BLNR petitions." On October 27, 2000, KDC and another plaintiff filed a motion requesting the court to impose a stay on any further activities by HELCO pursuant to HELCO's default entitlement until such time as the Hawaii Supreme Court acts on the pending appeals. A hearing is scheduled for December 11, 2000. PSD permit. In 1997, the EPA approved a revised draft permit and the DOH issued ---------- a final PSD permit for HELCO's DTCC unit. Nine appeals of the issuance of the permit were filed with the EPA's Environmental Appeals Board (EAB) in December 1997. On November 25, 1998, the EAB issued an Order Denying Review in Part and Remanding in Part. The EAB denied appeals of the permit that were based on challenges to (1) the DOH's use of a netting analysis (with respect to nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions), (2) the DOH's determination of Best Available Control Technology for control of sulfur dioxide emissions, and (3) certain aspects of the DOH's ambient air and source impact analysis. However, the EAB concluded that the DOH had not adequately responded to comments that had been made during the public comment period that data relating to certain ambient air concentrations were outdated or were measured at unrepresentative locations. The EAB remanded the proceedings and directed the DOH to reopen the permit for the limited purpose of (1) providing an updated air quality impact report incorporating current data on sulfur dioxide and particulate matter ambient concentrations and (2) providing a sufficient explanation of why the carbon monoxide and ozone data used to support the permit are reasonably representative, or performing a new air quality analysis based on data shown to be representative of the air quality in the area to be affected by the project. The EAB directed the DOH to accept and respond to public comments on the DOH's decisions with respect to these issues and ruled that any further appeals of its decision would be limited to the issues addressed on remand. On March 3, 1999, the EAB issued an Order denying motions for reconsideration which had been filed by HELCO, KDC and Kawaihae Cogeneration Partners (KCP). HELCO, working closely with the DOH and EPA, planned its response to the EAB remand and, in January 1999, commenced collection of several months of additional data at a new site. As part of the remand process, the DOH held a public hearing on the draft permit on October 7, 1999, limited to the issues remanded by the EAB. After considering issues raised at the public hearing, the DOH changed its position and required HELCO to complete a full 12 months of data collection at the new site (which collection began in January 1999) and also required that two months of data be collected at a more representative elevation to corroborate the data collected at the new site. This data collection was completed at the end of April 2000 and provided excellent corroboration of the data collected at the new site. HELCO is awaiting issuance of a revised permit by DOH, at which time DOH will open the public comment period and schedule another public hearing. It is anticipated that the hearing will take place in December 2000. As a result of these actions, there have been further delays in HELCO's construction of CT-4 and CT- 5. Although the actual length of the delays is uncertain, management believes CT-4 and CT-5 will be in service in early to mid-2002. HELCO continues to work with the DOH and EPA with the objective of having the final permit reissued in early 2001 and of reaching a final resolution of any appeals to the EAB as expeditiously as possible thereafter. HELCO believes that the PSD permit will 18 eventually be obtained and that installation of CT-4 and CT-5 will begin when the PSD permit is obtained and any EAB appeals from its issuance are resolved. KDC declaratory judgment action. In February 1997, KDC and three individuals ------------------------------- (Plaintiffs) filed a lawsuit in the Third Circuit Court of the State of Hawaii against HELCO, the director of the DOH, and the BLNR, seeking declaratory rulings with regard to five counts alleging that, with regard to the Keahole project, one or more of the defendants had violated, or could not allow the plant to operate without violating, the State Clean Air Act, the State Noise Pollution Act, conditions of HELCO's conditional use permit, covenants of HELCO's land patent and Hawaii administrative rules regarding standard conditions applicable to land permits. The Complaint was amended in March 1998 to add a sixth count, claiming that an amendment to a provision of the land patent (relating to the conditions under which the State could repurchase the land) is void and that the original provision should be reinstated. On April 12, 1999, the Court ruled that, because there were no remaining issues of fact in the case, a May 1999 trial date was vacated, no further discovery was authorized, and proceedings before the Court were suspended pending any further administrative action by the DOH and BLNR. The Court's rulings to date on the six counts in the KDC complaint are as follows: 1. Count I (State Clean Air Act): At a hearing on April 5, 1999, the Court ruled that the DOH was within its discretionary authority in granting HELCO's requests for additional extensions of time to file its Title V air permit applications. 2. Count II (State Noise Pollution Act): At a hearing relating to Count II on February 16, 1999, the DOH notified the Court and the parties of a change in its interpretation of the noise rules promulgated under the State Noise Pollution Act. The change in interpretation would apply to the Keahole plant the noise standard applicable to the emitter property (which the DOH claims to be a 55 dBA daytime and 45 dBA nighttime standard) rather than the previously-applied noise standard of the receptor properties in the surrounding agricultural park (a 70 dBA standard). In response to the new position announced by the DOH, on February 23, 1999 HELCO filed a declaratory judgment action against the DOH, alleging that the noise rules were invalid on constitutional grounds. At a hearing on March 31, 1999, the Court granted KDC's motion to dismiss HELCO's complaint and Plaintiffs' motion for reconsideration on Count II and ruled that the applicable noise standard was 55 dBA daytime and 45 dBA nighttime. The Court specifically reserved ruling on HELCO's claims or potential claims based on estoppel and on the constitutionality of the noise rules "as applied" to HELCO's Keahole plant. On March 31, 1999, the Third Circuit Court also granted in part and denied in part HELCO's motion for leave to file a cross-claim and a third-party complaint, stating that HELCO may file such motions on the "as applied" and "estoppel" claims once the DOH actually applies the 55/45 dBA noise standard to the Keahole plant. On May 12, 1999, the Order dismissing HELCO's declaratory judgment complaint was issued and final judgment was entered. The DOH objected to the entry of final judgment before all issues in the lawsuit were resolved, but an Order denying that motion was issued on July 26, 1999. HELCO filed a notice of appeal on August 25, 1999 and KDC filed a notice of cross-appeal on September 3, 1999. Opening briefs were filed with the Hawaii Supreme Court in January 2000, answering briefs were filed in February and March 2000 and reply briefs were filed in March and April 2000. Briefing is now complete. The DOH has not issued any formal enforcement action applying the 55/45 dBA standard to the Keahole plant. Meanwhile, HELCO has installed noise mitigation measures on the existing diesel units at Keahole, has obtained from the DLNR an administrative approval to install an additional silencer on CT-2 and is exploring possible noise mitigation measures, which can be implemented if necessary, for CT-4 and CT-5. 3. Count III (violation of CDUP): At a hearing on April 12, 1999, the Court granted HELCO's motion for summary judgment and suspended proceedings on this Count pending referral of this matter to the 19 BLNR. (Should the DOH find HELCO in violation of the noise rules (see Count II), the BLNR would be called to act on the impact of such violation, if any, on the CDUP.) 4. Count IV (violations of HELCO's land patent): At a hearing on April 12, 1999, the Court granted HELCO's motion for summary judgment and suspended proceedings on this Count pending referral of this matter to the BLNR. (Should the DOH find HELCO in violation of the noise rules (see Count II), the BLNR would be requested to determine the impact of such violation, if any, on the land patent.) 5. Count V (HELCO's ability to comply with land use regulations): At a hearing on April 12, 1999, the Court granted HELCO's motion for summary judgment and suspended proceedings on this Count pending referral of this matter to the BLNR for resolution of the administrative proceeding which had been pending before it. (See "BLNR petitions" herein.) 6. Count VI (amendment of HELCO's land patent): At the March 31, 1999 hearing, the Court granted Plaintiffs' motion for summary judgment, finding that a 1984 amendment to HELCO's land patent was invalid because the BLNR had failed to comply with the statutory procedure relating to amendments. The amendment was intended to correct an error in the original land patent with regard to the repurchase clause in the patent and to conform the language to the applicable statute, under which the State would have the right to repurchase the site (as opposed to an automatic reversion) if it were no longer used for utility purposes. This matter was heard by the BLNR at its hearing on February 25, 2000 and a corrected land patent has been issued. (See "BLNR petitions" herein.) If and when the DOH and BLNR/DLNR act on all issues relating to Counts II through VI, and depending upon their rulings, the KDC lawsuit may be moot. Orders were entered on April 16, 1999 with regard to Count I, May 18, 1999 with regard to Count VI, and June 3, 1999 with regard to Counts II through V. On April 30, 1999, KDC filed a motion to determine prevailing party and to tax attorney fees and costs and a motion for discovery sanctions. After hearing the motion, the Court ruled that Plaintiffs were the prevailing party as to Counts II and V and were entitled to fees and costs with regard to those counts, denied Plaintiffs' motion for fees as the prevailing party with regard to Count VI, denied HELCO's motion for fees as the prevailing party with regard to Count I and granted Plaintiffs' request for discovery sanctions against HELCO for late supplementation of responses to discovery requests. HELCO filed motions to alter or amend the orders regarding attorneys' fees and costs, and orders granting those motions were issued on September 22, 1999. HELCO appealed the amended orders to the Hawaii Supreme Court, which dismissed the appeal on January 20, 2000, on the grounds that the appeal was premature. On September 1, 2000, KDC and others filed a motion in Third Circuit Court to enter partial (nonfinal) judgment based on the September 22, 1999 order. The motion was denied by an order dated September 21, 2000. HELCO intends to continue to vigorously defend against the claims raised in this case and in related administrative actions. BLNR petitions. On August 5, 1998, KDC filed with the BLNR a Petition for --------------- Declaratory Ruling under HRS Section 91-8. The petition alleged that the standard conditions in HAR Section 13-2-21 apply to HELCO's default entitlement to use its Keahole site, that the letter issued to HELCO by the DLNR in January 1998 was erroneous because it failed to incorporate all conditions applicable to the existing permits, and that the DOH issued three separate Notices of Violation (NOVs) to HELCO in 1992 and 1998 for violation of clean air rules, which NOVs are alleged to constitute violations under the existing permits and render such permits null and void. The petition requested that the BLNR commence a contested case on the petition; that the BLNR determine that HELCO has violated the terms of its existing conditional use permits, causing such permits to be null and void; and that the BLNR determine that HELCO has violated the conditions applicable to its default entitlement, such that HELCO should be enjoined from using the Keahole property under such default entitlement. Pursuant to a ruling from the Third Circuit Court that the BLNR decide certain issues raised in this petition by November 30, 1999 (see "CDUP amendment" herein), these issues were discussed at an October 22, 1999 BLNR meeting. The BLNR determined that none of the standard land use conditions were inconsistent with HELCO's ability to proceed under its default 20 entitlement and, therefore, each of the standard land use conditions applied to the expansion. The BLNR did not, at that time, determine whether HELCO has complied with the applicable conditions. The BLNR also determined that specific conditions imposed by the BLNR on HELCO's original CDUP and amendments thereto continue to apply to the existing plant but not to the expansion under the default entitlement. An order to this effect was issued on November 19, 1999. On February 7, 2000, KDC and an individual plaintiff filed with the BLNR a Request to Nullify "Default Entitlement." In the request, it is alleged that HELCO's default entitlement is void because (1) HELCO cannot satisfy all conditions and laws, (2) HELCO forfeited its default entitlement because it redesigned certain facilities it has already constructed to support existing CT- 2 rather than CT-4 and CT-5, and (3) the BLNR should exercise its right-to- repurchase clause in HELCO's land patent. At its hearing on February 25, 2000, the BLNR denied KDC's request. The BLNR stated that it has the power to consider whether conditions have been met and to enforce those conditions if they are not met, but not to enforce conditions in a way which violates either HRS Section 183-41 or the order of the Third Circuit Court which recognized HELCO's ability to proceed with the Keahole project under a default entitlement. As to the third claim, the BLNR authorized the issuance of a land patent with a corrected repurchase provision at its hearing on February 25, 2000, after which time the repurchase issue became moot since HELCO continues to use the land for public utility purposes. (See "KDC declaratory judgment action," relating to Count VI.) A written decision on the February 25, 2000 rulings was issued on August 16, 2000. Subsequent to the February 25th hearing, an issue was raised administratively as to whether the BLNR should impose condition 15, which would impose a completion deadline on the project of three years following "approval." The issue was included on the agenda for the April 14, 2000 BLNR hearing. However, during the hearing the BLNR passed a motion to remove the item from the agenda. For a discussion of the subsequent decision of the Third Circuit Court on this issue and a discussion of HELCO's request for extension, see "CDUP amendment" above. IPP complaints filed with the PUC and other IPP information. Three IPPs-KCP, ----------------------------------------------------------- Enserch Development Corporation (Enserch) and Hilo Coast Power Company (HCPC)- filed separate complaints against HELCO with the PUC in 1993, 1994, and 1997, respectively, alleging that they are entitled to PPAs to provide HELCO with additional capacity. KCP and Enserch each claimed that they would be a substitute for HELCO's planned 56 MW (net) DTCC unit at Keahole. The Enserch and HCPC complaints have been resolved. In September 1995, the PUC allowed HELCO to continue to pursue construction of and commit expenditures for the second combustion turbine (CT-5) and the steam recovery generator (ST-7) for its planned DTCC unit, but stated in its order that "no part of the project may be included in HELCO's rate base unless and until the project is in fact installed, and is used and useful for utility purposes." The PUC also ordered HELCO to continue negotiating with the IPPs and held that the facility to be built (i.e., either HELCO's or one of the IPP's) should be the one that can be most expeditiously put into service at "allowable cost." The current status of the KCP complaint is as follows: KCP complaint. In January 1996, the PUC ordered HELCO to continue in good ------------- faith to negotiate a PPA with KCP. In May 1997, KCP filed a motion for unspecified "sanctions" against HELCO for allegedly failing to negotiate in good faith. In June 1997, KCP filed a motion asking the PUC to designate KCP's facility as the next generating unit on the HELCO system and to determine the "allowable cost" which would be payable by HELCO to KCP. HELCO filed memoranda in opposition to KCP's motions. The PUC held an evidentiary hearing in August 1997. KCP filed two other motions, which HELCO opposed, to supplement the record. The PUC issued an Order in June 1998 which denied all of KCP's pending motions; provided rulings and/or guidance on certain avoided cost and contract issues; directed HELCO to prepare an updated avoided cost calculation that includes the Encogen agreement; and directed HELCO and KCP to resume contract negotiations. HELCO filed a motion for partial reconsideration with respect to one avoided cost issue. The PUC granted HELCO's motion and modified its order in July 1998. HELCO resumed negotiations with KCP in 1998 in compliance with the Order, but no agreement has been reached. On November 20, 1998, KCP filed a motion asking the PUC to appoint a hearings officer to make a 21 recommendation to the PUC regarding the terms and conditions of a PPA and the calculation of avoided cost. HELCO filed a memorandum in opposition to KCP's motion on December 2, 1998. On July 9, 1999, KCP filed an additional motion, asking the PUC to reopen its complaint docket and to enforce the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 by calculating the utility's avoided cost. HELCO filed a memorandum in opposition to KCP's motion on July 16, 1999, KCP filed a reply on July 22, 1999 and the Consumer Advocate filed a SOP on August 2, 1999. No decision has been issued on KCP's two most recent motions. On October 29, 1999, the Third Circuit Court ruled that the lease between Waimana and the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands for the site on which KCP's plant was proposed to be built was invalid. In addition, KCP's air permit is under scrutiny by the DOH, as it may have expired on January 31, 2000. In light of these and other issues, management believes that KCP's proposal is not viable and, therefore, should not impact installation of CT-4 and CT-5. On January 16, 1998, HELCO filed with the PUC an application for approval of a PPA for a 60 MW (net) facility and an interconnection agreement with Encogen Hawaii, L.P. (Encogen), an Enserch affiliate, both dated October 22, 1997. The PUC issued a decision and order approving the agreements on July 14, 1999. The decision was amended at HELCO's request on July 21, 1999 and became final and nonappealable on August 23, 1999. Enserch sold its interest in the partnership, now called Hamakua Energy Partners L.P. (Hamakua Partners) in November 1999. The first phase of the project (22 MW) began commercial operation on August 12, 2000 and, according to Hamakua Partners, the remainder of its 60 MW facility is expected to be in-service by December 2000. This PPA was necessary to ensure reliable service to customers on the island of Hawaii and, in the opinion of management, does not supplant the need for CT-4 and CT-5. In December 1999, the PUC approved an amended and restated PPA between HELCO and HCPC under which HCPC will continue to provide 22 MW of firm capacity. The term of the agreement is for five years (through December 31, 2004) and may continue beyond that time unless either party provides notice of termination to the other party by May 30 in the year of termination. HELCO has the right to terminate the contract as of the end of 2002, 2003 or 2004 for an early termination amount of $0.5 million for each of the remaining years in the five-year term. Like the PPA with Hamakua Partners, this restated and amended PPA with HCPC was necessary to ensure reliable service to customers. However, because the short term of the PPA is intended to ensure reliability until the Keahole project is constructed, in the opinion of management it does not supplant the need for CT-4 and CT-5. Apollo Energy Corporation (Apollo), which has an existing contract to provide HELCO with as-available windpower through June 29, 2002, filed a petition for hearing with the PUC on April 28, 2000, alleging that it had unsuccessfully attempted for over 75 days to negotiate a new power purchase agreement with HELCO. Apollo had offered to repower its existing 7 MW facility by the end of 2000 and to install additional wind turbines, up to a total of 15 MW, by the end of 2001. The parties agreed to limit to four issues the matters being presented to the PUC for guidance: whether Apollo is entitled to capacity payments; whether Apollo is entitled to a minimum purchase rate; whether certain performance standards should apply; and whether HELCO's proposed dispute resolution provision should apply. A hearing on these issues was held on October 3-5, 2000, and briefing is to follow. Because Apollo is an as- available energy provider, management believes this matter would not affect the need for the Keahole project. Pre-PSD work and notices of violation. The costs for the CT-4 project (and, ------------------------------------- to a lesser extent, the CT-5 project) include the costs of certain facilities that benefit the existing Keahole power plant, but were originally scheduled to be installed at the same time as the new generating units. HELCO proceeded with the construction of the facilities that could be constructed prior to receipt of the PSD permits for CT-4 and CT-5 (pre-PSD facilities) after receipt of the CDUP amendment (as a result of the Third Circuit Court orders). (See "CDUP amendment" herein.) Pre-PSD facilities. The pre-PSD facilities include a ------------------ shop/warehouse/administration building (completed in 1998), fire protection system upgrades (completed in September 1999), and a new water treatment system (completed in December 1999, which supplies the demineralized water needs of the existing CT at Keahole). 22 EPA NOV. In September 1998, the EPA issued an NOV to HELCO stating that ------- HELCO violated the Hawaii State Implementation Plan by commencing construction activities at the Keahole generating station without first obtaining a final air permit. By law, 30 days after the NOV, the EPA may issue an order requiring compliance with applicable laws, assessing penalties and/or commencing a civil action seeking an injunction; however, no order has yet been issued. In 1999, HELCO put the EPA on notice that certain construction activities not affected by the NOV would continue, and received approval to proceed with certain construction activities. However, HELCO has halted work on other construction activities at Keahole until further notice is provided or approval is obtained from the EPA, or until the final air permit is received. Contingency planning. In June 1995, HELCO filed with the PUC its generation --------------------- resource contingency plan detailing alternatives and mitigation measures to address the delays that have occurred in adding new generation. Actions under the plan (such as deferring the retirements of older, smaller units) have helped HELCO maintain its reserve margin and reduce the risk of near-term capacity shortages. In January 1996, the PUC opened a proceeding to evaluate HELCO's contingency resource plan and HELCO's efforts to insure system reliability. HELCO has filed reports with the PUC from time to time updating the contingency plan and the status of implementing the plan. The last update was filed on March 31, 2000. The first increment of new generation to be available to HELCO was added on August 12, 2000 (Hamakua Partners' 22 MW CT). Despite delays in adding new generation, HELCO's mitigation measures (including the extension of power purchases from HCPC) should provide HELCO with sufficient generation reserve margin to cover its projected monthly system peaks with units on scheduled maintenance until additional new generation is added in late 2000 (the remaining 38 MW of Hamakua Partners' 60 MW DTCC unit) and in early to mid-2002 (CT-4 and CT-5), and should provide HELCO with sufficient reserve margin in the event of further delays in adding new generation. As new generation is added, HELCO will retire its older, smaller generating units. Costs incurred. If it becomes probable that CT-4 and/or CT-5 will not be -------------- installed, HELCO may be required to write-off a material portion of the costs incurred in its efforts to put these units into service. As of September 30, 2000, HELCO's costs incurred in its efforts to put CT-4 and CT-5 into service and to support existing units amounted to approximately $81.0 million, including $32.4 million for equipment and material purchases, $27.0 million for planning, engineering, permitting, site development and other costs and $21.6 million for an allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC). As of September 30, 2000, approximately $23.5 million of the $81.0 million was transferred from construction in progress to plant-in-service as such costs represent completed pre-PSD facilities which relate to the existing units in service as well as to CT-4 and CT-5. Although management believes it has acted prudently with respect to the Keahole project, effective December 1, 1998, HELCO decided to discontinue the accrual of AFUDC on CT-4 and CT-5 (which would have been approximately $0.5 million after tax per month). The length of the delays to date and potential further delays were factors considered by management in its decision to discontinue the accrual of AFUDC. HELCO has also deferred plans for ST-7 to approximately 2005. Since ST-7 is not needed in the near future, no costs for ST-7 are included in construction in progress. Management believes that the issues surrounding the amendment to the land use permit, the air permit, the IPP complaints and related matters will be satisfactorily resolved and will not prevent HELCO from ultimately constructing CT-4 and CT-5. The recovery of costs relating to CT-4 and CT-5 are subject to the rate-making process governed by the PUC. Management believes no adjustment to costs incurred to put CT-4 and CT-5 into service is required as of September 30, 2000. Competition proceeding On December 30, 1996, the PUC instituted a proceeding to identify and examine the issues surrounding electric competition and to determine the impact of competition on the electric utility infrastructure in Hawaii. After a collaborative process involving the 19 parties to the proceeding, final statements of position were prepared by several of the parties and submitted to the PUC in October 1998. HECO's position is that retail competition is not feasible in Hawaii, but that some of the benefits of competition can be achieved through competitive bidding for new 23 generation, performance-based rate-making (PBR) and innovative pricing provisions. The other parties to the proceeding advanced numerous other proposals in their statements of position. The PUC submitted a status report on its investigation to the Legislature. In the report, the PUC stated that competitive bidding for new power supplies (i.e., wholesale generation competition) is a logical first step to encourage competition in the state's electric industry and that it plans to proceed with an examination of the feasibility of competitive bidding. The PUC also plans to review specific policies to encourage renewable energy resources in the power generation mix. The report states that "further steps" by the PUC "will involve the development of specific policies to encourage wholesale competition and the continuing examination of other areas suitable for the development of competition." HECO cannot predict what the ultimate outcome of the proceeding will be or which (if any) of the proposals advanced in the proceeding will be implemented. In addition, some of the parties may seek state legislative action on their proposals. In December 1999, HECO, HELCO and MECO filed an application with the PUC seeking permission to implement PBR in future rate cases. The proposed PBR would allow adjustments in the electric utilities' rates (for up to five years after a rate case) based on an index-based price cap, an earnings sharing mechanism and a service quality mechanism. In March 2000, the PUC approved HELCO's standard form contract for customer retention that allows HELCO to provide a rate option for customers who would otherwise reduce their energy use from HELCO's system by using energy from a nonutility generator. The standard form contract provides a 10% discount on base energy rates for "Large Power" and "General Service Demand" customers. In May 1999, the PUC authorized HECO to offer a similar standard form contract. Environmental regulation In early 1995, the DOH initially advised HECO, Hawaiian Tug & Barge Corp. (HTB), Young Brothers, Limited (YB) and others that it was conducting an investigation to determine the nature and extent of actual or potential releases of hazardous substances, oil, pollutants or contaminants at or near Honolulu Harbor. The DOH issued letters in December 1995, indicating that it had identified a number of parties, including HECO, HTB and YB, who appear to be potentially responsible for the contamination and/or operate their facilities upon contaminated land. The DOH met with these identified parties in January 1996 and certain of the identified parties (including HECO, Chevron Products Company, the State of Hawaii Department of Transportation Harbors Division and others) formed the Honolulu Harbor Work Group. Effective January 30, 1998, the Work Group and the DOH entered into a voluntary agreement and scope of work to determine the nature and extent of any contamination, the responsible parties and appropriate remedial actions. In 1999, the Work Group submitted reports to the DOH presenting environmental conditions and recommendations for additional data gathering to allow for an assessment of the need for risk-based corrective action (Conceptual Site Model). The Work Group also engaged a consultant who identified 27 additional potentially responsible parties, including YB. Under the terms of the agreement for the sale of YB, HEI and The Old Oahu Tug Service, Inc. (TOOTS, formerly HTB) have certain indemnity obligations, including obligations with respect to the Honolulu Harbor investigation. Texaco Group, Inc. and Philips Petroleum have joined the Work Group. In response to the DOH's request for technical assistance, the EPA became involved with the harbor investigation in June 2000. In August 2000, the Work Group, the DOH, the EPA and the U.S. Coast Guard met to discuss the Conceptual Site Model, how to proceed and other matters. The Work Group is working on closing out any remaining obligations under the voluntary agreement, including completing responses to questions raised by the DOH on the Conceptual Site Model, and proposing an interim plan and procedure to respond to petroleum discharges in the Honolulu Harbor area. Because the process for determining appropriate remedial and cleanup action, if any, is at an early stage, management cannot predict at this time the costs of further site analysis or future remediation and cleanup requirements, nor can it estimate when such costs would be incurred. Certain of the costs incurred may be 24 claimed and covered under insurance policies, but such coverage is not determinable at this time. The Work Group is working on determining a fair method of cost allocation within the group to fund future remediation work that may be required by the DOH or EPA. (6) HECO-obligated mandatorily redeemable trust preferred securities of ----------------------------------------------------------------------- subsidiary trusts holding solely HECO and HECO-guaranteed debentures ------------------------------------------------------------------------ In March 1997, HECO Capital Trust I (Trust I), a grantor trust and a wholly owned subsidiary of HECO, sold (i) in a public offering, 2 million of its HECO- Obligated 8.05% Cumulative Quarterly Income Preferred Securities, Series 1997 (1997 trust preferred securities) with an aggregate liquidation preference of $50 million and (ii) to HECO, common securities with a liquidation preference of approximately $1.55 million. Proceeds from the sale of the 1997 trust preferred securities and the common securities were used by Trust I to purchase 8.05% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures, Series 1997 (1997 junior deferrable debentures) issued by HECO in the principal amount of $31.55 million and issued by each of MECO and HELCO in the respective principal amounts of $10 million. The 1997 junior deferrable debentures, which bear interest at 8.05% and mature on March 27, 2027, together with the subsidiary guarantees (pursuant to which the obligations of MECO and HELCO under their respective debentures are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by HECO), are the sole assets of Trust I. The 1997 trust preferred securities must be redeemed at the maturity of the underlying debt on March 27, 2027, which maturity may be shortened to a date no earlier than March 27, 2002 or extended to a date no later than March 27, 2046, and are not redeemable at the option of the holders, but may be redeemed by Trust I, in whole or in part, from time to time, on or after March 27, 2002 or upon the occurrence of certain events. All of the proceeds from the sale were invested by Trust I in the underlying debt securities of HECO, HELCO and MECO. In December 1998, HECO Capital Trust II (Trust II), a grantor trust and a wholly owned subsidiary of HECO, sold (i) in a public offering, 2 million of its HECO- Obligated 7.30% Cumulative Quarterly Income Preferred Securities, Series 1998 (1998 trust preferred securities) with an aggregate liquidation preference of $50 million and (ii) to HECO, common securities with a liquidation preference of approximately $1.55 million. Proceeds from the sale of the 1998 trust preferred securities and the common securities were used by Trust II to purchase 7.30% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures, Series 1998 (1998 junior deferrable debentures) issued by HECO in the principal amount of $31.55 million and issued by each of MECO and HELCO in the respective principal amounts of $10 million. The 1998 junior deferrable debentures, which bear interest at 7.30% and mature on December 15, 2028, together with the subsidiary guarantees (pursuant to which the obligations of MECO and HELCO under their respective debentures are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by HECO), are the sole assets of Trust II. The 1998 trust preferred securities must be redeemed at the maturity of the underlying debt on December 15, 2028, which maturity may be shortened to a date no earlier than December 15, 2003 or extended to a date no later than December 15, 2047, and are not redeemable at the option of the holders, but may be redeemed by Trust II, in whole or in part, from time to time, on or after December 15, 2003 or upon the occurrence of certain events. All of the proceeds from the sale were invested by Trust II in the underlying debt securities of HECO, HELCO and MECO, who used such proceeds from the sale of the 1998 junior deferrable debentures primarily to effect the redemption of certain series of their preferred stock having a total par value of $47 million. The 1997 and 1998 junior deferrable debentures and the common securities of the Trusts have been eliminated in HECO's consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999. The 1997 and 1998 junior deferrable debentures are redeemable only (i) at the option of HECO, MECO and HELCO, respectively, in whole or in part, on or after March 27, 2002 (1997 junior deferrable debentures) and December 15, 2003 (1998 junior deferrable debentures) or (ii) at the option of HECO, in whole, upon the occurrence of a "Special Event" (relating to certain changes in laws or regulations). 25 (7) Recent accounting pronouncements ------------------------------------ Derivative instruments and hedging activities In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities and requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. The provisions of SFAS No. 133 were amended by SFAS No. 137 to be effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. HECO and its subsidiaries will adopt SFAS No. 133, as amended, on January 1, 2001. Management believes the impact of adoption will not be material. Certain transactions involving stock compensation In March 2000, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 44, " Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation, An Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25," which clarifies the application of APB Opinion No. 25 for certain issues but does not address any issues related to the application of the fair value method in SFAS No. 123. The Interpretation clarifies (a) the definition of an employee for purposes of applying APB Opinion No. 25, (b) the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a noncompensatory plan, (c) the accounting consequence of various modifications to the terms of a previously fixed stock option award, and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. HECO and its subsidiaries adopted the provisions of the Interpretation on July 1, 2000 with no resulting material impact to HECO's consolidated results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. 26 (8) Consolidating financial information ---------------------------------------- Hawaiian Electric Company, Inc. and subsidiaries Consolidating balance sheet

Kilowatthour (KWH) sales in the third quarter and first nine months of 2000 increased 4.1% and 3.1%, respectively, from the same periods in 1999, partly due to an increase in the number of customers, warmer weather and an improvement in Hawaii's economy. From December 1999 to September 2000, fuel prices on Oahu have increased approximately 33%, but the typical monthly Oahu residential electricity bill for 600 KWH has increased only 8%. HECO and its subsidiaries pass both increases and decreases in the cost of fuel and purchased energy prices through to their customers via their Energy Cost Adjustment Clauses. In spite of the increase in rates due to higher fuel prices, the electric utilities' KWH sales have increased. Electric utility operating income for the first nine months of 2000 increased 19% from the first nine months of 1999, primarily due to the higher KWH sales and 10% lower other operation and maintenance expenses. Other operation expenses were lower primarily due to a decrease of approximately $9 million in pension and other postretirement benefits expenses partly due to an increase in the discount rate (from 6.50% at December 31, 1998 to 7.75% at December 31, 1999) and a change in the method of determining market-related value of retirement benefit plan assets (see note (2) in HECO's "Notes to consolidated financial statements"). 39 In October 2000, due to flashfloods and lightning storms, HELCO's transmission and distribution facilities and generation power plants were damaged. Uninsured repairs are estimated to amount to $1.5 million. Competition The electric utility industry is becoming increasingly competitive. IPPs are well established in Hawaii and continue to actively pursue new projects. Customer self-generation, with or without cogeneration, has made inroads in Hawaii and is a continuing competitive factor. Competition in the generation sector in Hawaii is moderated, however, by the scarcity of generation sites, various permitting processes and lack of interconnections to other electric utilities. HECO has been able to compete successfully by offering customers economic alternatives that, among other things, employ energy efficient electrotechnologies such as the heat pump water heater. On December 30, 1996, the PUC instituted a proceeding to identify and examine the issues surrounding electric competition and to determine the impact of competition on the electric utility infrastructure in Hawaii. In their statement of position (SOP), HECO and its subsidiaries proposed to achieve some of the benefits of competition through proposals for (1) competitive bidding for new generation, (2) performance-based rate-making (which would include an index- based price cap, an earnings sharing mechanism and a benchmark incentive plan) and (3) innovative pricing provisions (including rate restructuring, expanded time-of-use rates, customer migration rates such as standby charges, flexible pricing to encourage economic development and to compete with customer generation options, new service options and two-part rates incorporating real- time pricing). HECO and its subsidiaries suggest in their SOP that these proposals be implemented through PUC approval of applications submitted in a series of separate proceedings to be initiated by HECO, HELCO and MECO. See "Competition proceeding" in note (5) in HECO's "Notes to consolidated financial statements." PUC regulation of electric utility rates The PUC has broad discretion in its regulation of the rates charged by HEI's electric utility subsidiaries and in other matters. Any adverse decision and order (D&O) by the PUC concerning the level or method of determining electric utility rates, the authorized returns on equity or other matters, or any prolonged delay in rendering a D&O in a rate or other proceeding, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. Upon a showing of probable entitlement, the PUC is required to issue an interim D&O in a rate case within 10 months from the date of filing a completed application if the evidentiary hearing is completed (subject to extension for 30 days if the evidentiary hearing is not completed). There is no time limit for rendering a final D&O. Interim rate increases are subject to refund with interest, pending the final outcome of the case. Management cannot predict with certainty when D&Os in pending or future rate cases will be rendered or the amount of any interim or final rate increase that may be granted. Recent rate requests HEI's electric utility subsidiaries initiate PUC proceedings from time to time to request electric rate increases to cover rising operating costs, the cost of purchased power and the cost of plant and equipment, including the cost of new capital projects to maintain and improve service reliability. As of September 30, 2000, the return on average common equity (ROACE) found by the PUC to be reasonable in the most recent final rate decision for each utility was 11.4% for HECO (D&O issued on December 11, 1995 and based on a 1995 test year), 11.65% for HELCO (D&O issued on April 2, 1997 and based on a 1996 test year) and 10.94% for MECO (D&O issued on April 6, 1999 and based on a 1999 test year). Hawaii Electric Light Company, Inc. ----------------------------------- In October 1999, HELCO filed a request to increase rates by 9.6%, or $15.5 million in annual revenues, based on a 2000 test year, primarily to recover (1) costs relating to the agreement to buy power from the 60 MW plant of Hamakua Energy Partners, L.P. (Hamakua) and (2) depreciation of and a return on additional investments in plant and equipment since the last rate case, including pre-PSD facilities placed in service at the Keahole power plant (see "HELCO power situation--Pre-PSD work and notices of violation" in note (5) of HECO's "Notes to consolidated financial statements"). 40 The Consumer Advocate filed its testimony on May 8, 2000. HELCO filed its rebuttal testimony on June 19, 2000 and continued to justify an increase of at least $15.5 million and a ROACE of 13.25% for the 2000 test year. Hearings were held in August 2000. To simplify and expedite the rate case proceeding, HELCO and the Consumer Advocate entered into a negotiated settlement agreement, subject to PUC consideration and approval, with respect to certain test year estimates. As part of the settlement agreement, HECO, MECO and HELCO (the electric utilities) agreed to make a prospective change to their accounting treatment of canceled project costs. Historically, the electric utilities classified projects that were not completed as either canceled or abandoned, depending on whether the projects were stopped before (canceled) or after (abandoned) significant costs were incurred for material purchases and/or construction. The parties agreed that effective October 1, 2000, the electric utilities will charge the costs of canceled projects to operating expense, which is similar to and consistent with the treatment for abandoned project costs. An appropriate amount of canceled project costs will be included in revenue requirements in rate case proceedings. Prior to October 1, 2000, the electric utilities allocated the costs of canceled projects to on-going capital projects, operation and maintenance expenses and other accounts through a clearing process. Management believes that this change in accounting procedure will not have a material effect on the electric utilities' results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. The electric utilities may seek PUC approval for different accounting treatments in unusual or special circumstances. In September 2000, HELCO received an interim D&O from the PUC which authorized a 1.93%, or $3.5 million, increase in annual revenues, effective September 1, 2000 and based on an 11.65% ROACE which was the ROACE authorized in HELCO's previous rate case. The interim D&O granted rate relief for the cost to buy power from Phase I of the Hamakua facility, which is currently in service. HELCO has requested a step increase in rates when Phase II of the Hamakua facility is placed in service in late November 2000, if a final D&O has not been issued by that time. While certain revenue requirement amounts contested by the Consumer Advocate were included in rates approved on an interim basis, others were not. For example, the interim D&O included rates to cover HELCO's calculation of fuel oil expense and its purchase power payments to HCPC, but did not include rates to cover depreciation of and a return on investments in facilities placed in service since the last rate case at the Keahole Power Plant to serve both existing and yet unbuilt generating units. The Consumer Advocate disagreed with HELCO's calculation of fuel oil expense and purchase power payments to HCPC and objected to including the pre-service costs in rates until the new generating units are in service. The PUC may grant an interim rate increase (subject to refund with interest pending the final outcome of the case) if the PUC believes that the public utility is probably entitled to an increase in its rates. The adoption of revenue, expense, rate base and cost of capital amounts (including the ROACE) for purposes of an interim rate increase does not commit the PUC to accept any such amounts in its final D&O. In determining such interim amounts, the PUC has stated that it must often postpone determinations of reasonableness with respect to contested matters. The timing of a future HELCO rate increase request, if any, to recover costs relating to adding CT-4 and CT-5 will depend on future circumstances. See "HELCO power situation" in note (5) of HECO's "Notes to consolidated financial statements." Accounting for the effects of certain types of regulation In accordance with SFAS No. 71, "Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation," the Company's financial statements reflect assets and costs of HECO and its subsidiaries based on current cost-based rate-making regulations. Management believes HECO and its subsidiaries' operations currently satisfy the SFAS No. 71 criteria. However, if events or circumstances should change so that those criteria are no longer satisfied, management believes that a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position or liquidity may result. As of September 30, 2000, HECO's consolidated regulatory assets amounted to $116 million. 41 Savings bank ------------

ASB's interest rate spread--the difference between the weighted-average yield on interest-earning assets and the weighted-average rate on interest-bearing liabilities--decreased 3.4% and increased 0.3% for the third quarter and first nine months of 2000, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1999. Comparing the first 42 nine months and the third quarter of 2000 to the same periods in 1999, the weighted-average yields on interest-earning assets increased more than the weighted-average rates on interest-bearing liabilities increased. Impacting the weighted-average yield on interest-earning assets was the recognition of interest income on a cash basis for four debt securities in the principal amount of $114 million. The weighted-average yield on interest-earning assets is calculated by dividing the annualized interest or dividend income by the average interest-earning asset balances. Since the interest on the four debt securities is accounted for on a cash basis, the interest income received on these debt securities is not annualized for the purposes of calculating the weighted- average yields on interest-earning assets. See note (4) in HEI's "Notes to consolidated financial statements." Deposits traditionally have been the principal source of ASB's funds for use in lending, meeting liquidity requirements and making investments. Deposits increased by $67 million in the first nine months of 2000, including $73 million of interest credited to accounts. ASB also derives funds from borrowings, payments of interest and principal on outstanding loans receivable and mortgage/asset-backed securities, and other sources. In recent years, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Seattle and securities sold under agreements to repurchase have become more significant sources of funds as the demand for deposits decreased due in part to increased competition from money market and mutual funds. Using sources of funds with a higher cost than deposits, such as advances from the FHLB, puts downward pressure on ASB's interest rate spread and net interest income. During the first nine months of 2000, ASB added $9 million to its allowance for loan losses. As of September 30, 2000, ASB's allowance for loan losses was 1.15% of average loans outstanding. The following table presents the changes in the allowance for loan losses for the periods indicated.

In March 1998, ASB formed a wholly owned operating subsidiary, ASB Realty Corporation, which elects to be taxed as a real estate investment trust. This reorganization has reduced ASB's income taxes. For the first nine months of 2000, ASB and subsidiaries' effective income tax rate was 34%. Although the State of Hawaii has indicated that it may challenge the tax treatment of this reorganization, ASB believes that its tax position is proper. Regulation Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) regulations restrict the ability of financial institutions that are not "well-capitalized" to compete on the same terms as "well-capitalized" institutions, such as by offering interest rates on deposits that are significantly higher than the rates offered by competing institutions. As of September 30, 2000, ASB was "well-capitalized" (ratio requirements noted in parentheses) with a leverage ratio of 5.9% (5.0%), a Tier- 1 risk-based ratio of 10.3% (6.0%) and a total risk-based ratio of 11.2% (10.0%). Examination of ASB by the OTS ----------------------------- ASB is subject to examination by the OTS. In conducting its examinations, the OTS utilizes the Uniform Financial Institutions Rating System (UFIRS), adopted by Thrift Bulletin 69 (TB 69) dated January 10, 1997. The UFIRS rating system utilizes the "CAMELS" criteria for rating financial institutions. The six components in the rating system are: Capital adequacy, Asset quality, - - Management, Earnings, Liquidity, and Sensitivity to market risk. The "C" rating - - - - assesses whether an institution's capital is adequate in relation to its risk profile, current operations, and future needs. This factor considers the institution's dividend policy and practices and the institution's prompt corrective action rating. The "A" rating evaluates asset quality. The asset quality rating reflects the extent of credit 43 risk associated with the loan and investment portfolios, real estate owned, other assets, and off-balance sheet risks as well as the institution's ability to manage those risks. The "M" rating is a reflection of the performance of the entire management team of the institution, including the board of directors and all levels of management. The rating is an assessment of management's overall effectiveness. The "E" component evaluates whether earnings are sufficient for necessary capital formation. The quality (stability) and composition (source) of earnings are important criteria in this evaluation. The "L" rating measures liquidity in relation to the institution's level of liquid assets, its outside sources of funds, and the adequacy of its funds (or cash flow) management practices. The "S" rating component addresses the degree that changes in interest rates, commodity prices, and equity prices could adversely affect the earnings or economic capital of the institution. The "S" component, while broad in scope, is applied by the financial institution regulators only to the elements of market risk that are relevant to the institution being examined. As applied to ASB, the OTS has in the past and will likely continue in the future to focus the S component inquiry on interest-rate risk. (ASB does not hold inventories of foreign currency, and it does not have material exposure to equity price volatility). Thrift Bulletin 13a (TB 13a), adopted by the OTS on December 1, 1998, provides guidance on the management of interest rate risks, investment securities and derivatives activities. TB 13a updates the OTS's minimum standards for thrift institutions' interest rate risk management practices with regard to board- approved limits and interest rate risk measurement systems. TB 13a also contains guidance on thrifts' investment and derivative activities by describing the types of analysis institutions should perform prior to purchasing securities or financial derivatives. TB 13a also provides guidelines on the use of certain types of securities and financial derivatives for purposes other than reducing portfolio risk. TB 13a also provides quantitative guidelines for an initial assessment of an institution's level of interest rate risk. Examiners have broad discretion in implementing those guidelines. Finally, TB 13a also provides guidelines concerning the factors examiners consider in assessing the quality of an institution's risk management systems and procedures. These factors include, among others, consideration of various interest-rate sensitivity measures in the context of the institution's regulatory capital position. Examiners will base their conclusions about an institution's level of interest rate risk--the first dimension for determining the "S" component rating--primarily on the interest rate sensitivity of the institution's net portfolio value. The two specific measures of risk that will receive examiners' primary attention are the Interest Rate Sensitivity Measure and the Post-shock Net Present Value (NPV) Ratio. The "Interest Rate Sensitivity Measure" is defined as the magnitude of the decline in an institution's NPV Ratio that occurs as a result of an adverse rate shock of 200 basis points. This measure equals the difference between an institution's Pre-shock NPV Ratio and its Post- shock NPV Ratio and is expressed in basis points. "Post-shock NPV Ratio" is a ratio determined by dividing an institution's NPV by the present value of its assets, where both the numerator and the denominator are measured after a 200 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates, whichever produces a smaller ratio. In assessing the level of interest rate risk, a high (i.e., risky) Interest Rate Sensitivity Measure, by itself, may not cause supervisory concern when the institution has a strong capital position. Because an institution's risk of failure is linked to capital and, hence, to its ability to absorb adverse economic shocks, an institution with a high level of economic capital (i.e., NPV) may be able to support a high Interest Rate Sensitivity Measure. The Post-shock NPV Ratio is a more comprehensive gauge of risk than the Interest Rate Sensitivity Measure because it incorporates estimates of the current economic value of an institution's portfolio, in addition to the reported capital level and interest rate risk sensitivity. Management has developed and is implementing an action plan to improve ASB's interest rate risk position. The plan includes obtaining additional capital and making changes to improve the matching of asset and liability durations, such as lengthening the term of costing liabilities and selling a portion of ASB's long- term fixed rate loan production. The OTS regularly conducts "safety and soundness" examinations of ASB on generally a thirteen-month cycle. In accordance with TB 69, each CAMELS component is examined and given a component rating. An overall CAMELS rating is also given, after taking into account all of the component ratings. An institution, its directors, officers and employees, are prohibited from disclosing in any manner the OTS's report of its safety and soundness examination or the component and overall CAMELS rating thereof to any person or organization not officially 44 connected with the institution as officer, director, employee, attorney, or auditor, except as provided in 12 C.F.R. section 510.5. Independent auditors may be provided access to the report of examination only after providing a written statement that they will not disclose the report or any portion of it. During 2000, the OTS has conducted CRA, compliance, systems, holding company and safety and soundness examinations of ASB. The most recent OTS safety and soundness examination, covering the period from January 1, 1999, up to and including March 31, 2000, was completed on June 16, 2000 and ASB was not made subject to (and is not subject to) any formal regulatory or administrative direction or supervision such as a "memorandum of understanding" or a "cease and desist" order following that examination. ASB is undertaking all corrective actions requested by the OTS during the course of its recent examinations and does not expect such corrective actions to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. Federal Thrift Charter ---------------------- In November 1999, Congress passed the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1998 (the Act). The Act repeals the Depression-era Glass-Steagall Act so that banks, insurance companies and investment firms can compete directly against each other, thereby allowing "one-stop shopping" for an array of financial services. Although the Act further restricts the creation of so-called "unitary savings and loan holding companies" (i.e., companies such as HEI whose subsidiaries include one or more savings associations and one or more nonfinancial subsidiaries), the unitary savings and loan holding company relationship among HEI, HEIDI and ASB is "grandfathered" under the Act so that HEI and its subsidiaries will be able to continue to engage in their current activities. It is too early to assess the net effect of the Act on ASB's competitive position. On the one hand, the availability of "one-stop shopping" for financial services might increase competitive pressures on ASB. On the other hand, the restriction on the creation of new unitary savings and loan association holding companies may decrease competitive pressure by reducing the incentive to create new thrifts. Under the Act, any proposed acquisition of ASB would have to satisfy applicable statutory and regulatory requirements and potential acquirers of ASB would most likely be limited to companies that are already qualified as, or capable of qualifying as, either a traditional savings and loan association holding company or a bank holding company, or as one of the newly authorized financial holding companies permitted under the Act. In addition to its effects upon competition, the Act might result in increased costs for ASB. For example, the Act imposes on financial institutions an obligation to protect the security and confidentiality of its customers' nonpublic personal information, and directs, among others, the FDIC and the OTS to establish appropriate standards to protect such information and the use thereof. On June 1, 2000, the FDIC and the OTS, among others, issued joint rules to implement in part the provisions of the Act concerning the disclosure of customers' nonpublic information and have set a required implementation date no later than July 1, 2001. On June 26, 2000, the FDIC and the OTS, among others, issued proposed joint rules concerning administrative, technical and physical safeguards for customer records and information. ASB currently has in place a policy concerning customer privacy and believes that any additional compliance costs would not be significant. International power -------------------

NM Not meaningful. HEIPC was formed in 1995 and its direct and indirect subsidiaries have been formed from time to time to pursue independent power and integrated energy services projects in Asia and the Pacific. In September 1996, HEI Power Corp. Guam (HPG), entered into an energy conversion agreement for approximately 20 years with the Guam Power Authority (GPA), pursuant to which HPG has repaired and is operating and maintaining two oil- fired 25 MW (net) units at Tanguisson, Guam. HPG's total cost to repair the two units was $15 million. In 1999, a mechanical failure of one of the units resulted in additional expenses and lost revenue for HPG of approximately $1 million. In September 2000, HPG recovered this amount from GPA. The GPA project site is contaminated with oil from spills occurring prior to HPG's assuming operational control. HPG has agreed to manage the operation and maintenance of GPA's waste oil recovery system at the project site consistent with GPA's oil recovery plan as approved by the EPA. GPA, however, has agreed to indemnify and hold HPG harmless from any pre-existing environmental liability. In 1998 and 1999, the HEIPC Group acquired what is now a 75% interest in a joint venture, Baotou Tianjiao Power Co., Ltd., formed to design, construct, own, operate and manage a 200 MW (net) coal-fired power plant to be located inside Baotou Steel's complex in Inner Mongolia, People's Republic of China. The IMPC, which owns and operates the electricity grid in Inner Mongolia, has refused to enter into a satisfactory interconnection arrangement with the joint venture. The HEIPC Group continues to work with Baotou Steel and IMPC to secure a satisfactory interconnection arrangement. See "China project," in note (5) of HEI's "Notes to consolidated financial statements." In December 1998, the HEIPC Group invested $7.6 million to acquire convertible cumulative nonparticipating 8% preferred shares in Cagayan Electric Power & Light Co., Inc. (CEPALCO), an electric distribution company in the Philippines. In September 1999, the HEIPC Group also acquired 5% of the outstanding CEPALCO common stock for $2.1 million. The acquisitions were strategic moves intended to put the HEIPC Group in a position to participate in the anticipated privatization of the National Power Corporation and growth in the electric distribution business in the Philippines. On March 7, 2000, an indirect subsidiary of HEIPC acquired a 50% interest in EPHE, which is an indirect subsidiary of El Paso Energy Corporation, for $87.5 million plus up to an additional $6 million of payments that are contingent upon future earnings of EAPRC. EPHE owns approximately 91.7% of the common shares of EAPRC, a Philippines holding company primarily engaged in the electric generation business in Manila and Cebu through its direct and indirect subsidiaries, using land and barge-based generating facilities fired by bunker fuel oil, with total installed capacity of approximately 390 MW. See note (5) in HEI's "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements." The HEIPC Group's higher net losses for the third quarter and first nine months of 2000 compared to the same periods in 1999 are primarily attributable to results from the investment in EAPRC and its subsidiaries (the EAPRC 46 Group). The HEIPC Group accounts for its investment in EPHE under the equity method of accounting. HEI consolidates the accounts of the HEIPC Group on a one- month lag due to the time needed to consolidate HEIPC's subsidiaries. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 thus reflects results of the HEIPC Group's operations for the months of December 1999 and January through August 2000 (including the results of EPHE under the equity method of accounting from March 7, 2000) and the results for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 thus reflects results for the months of June, July and August 2000. The EAPRC Group is exposed to the impact of changes in fuel oil prices and foreign currency fluctuations. Higher fuel oil prices and the weakened value of the Philippine peso were the primary causes of the losses incurred by the EAPRC Group for the third quarter and first nine months of 2000. The rates charged by the EAPRC Group under its purchase power agreements are generally at a discount to the rates charged by the National Power Corporation, a government owned and controlled corporation of the Philippines. Most of the fluctuation in fuel oil prices is not recovered in rates charged by the EAPRC Group. The EAPRC Group's base price of fuel oil per metric ton for March, April, May, June, July, August and September 2000 was approximately $143, $170, $153, $163, $175, $149 and $171, respectively. To reduce its near-term exposure to higher fuel oil prices, the EAPRC Group has purchased nondeliverable forward contracts for fuel oil at an average price of $155 per metric ton for approximately 80% of its anticipated purchases from August 1 to December 31, 2000 and has purchased call option contracts at $159.75 per metric ton and sold put option contracts at $120 per metric ton for approximately 30% of its anticipated purchases from January 1 to June 30, 2001. As of September 30, 2000, the EAPRC Group had approximately $200 million in U.S. dollar denominated debt. From March 7, 2000 (acquisition date) to August 31, 2000, the high and low Philippine peso (PhP) exchange rate was PhP40.82 = $1 and PhP45.22 = $1, respectively, an 11% fluctuation. Due to the deterioration of the exchange rate from March 7 to August 31, 2000, as of September 30, 2000 the HEIPC Group incurred a loss of approximately $7 million related to the EAPRC Group's U.S. dollar denominated debt position. The potential immediate pretax loss to the HEIPC Group that would result from a hypothetical 10% devaluation (from PhP51.00 = $1) in the Philippine peso exchange rate based on this position would be approximately $8 million (assuming no hedges are in place). As of November 3, 2000, the exchange rate had further deteriorated to PhP51.00 = $1. To reduce its near-term exposure to devaluation in the Philippine peso exchange rate, the EAPRC Group purchased nondeliverable and deliverable forward contracts and nondeliverable option contracts (collectively the FX Contracts) to cover substantially all of its U.S. dollar denominated debt. The FX Contracts have maturities from October 2000 through January 2001 at rates ranging from PhP47.00 to PhP48.30 = $1. Based on prevailing and hedged fuel oil prices and trends in currency exchange rates, management expects that the HEIPC Group will incur net losses for the remainder of 2000 and that the net loss of the HEIPC Group for 2000 will cause the Company`s 2000 earnings to be lower than its earnings in 1999. The EAPRC Group continues to evaluate strategies to reduce its exposure to future fuel oil price and foreign currency fluctuations. As of September 30, 2000, the HEIPC Group has invested in or advanced to overseas power projects approximately $138 million. The success of any project undertaken by the HEIPC Group will be dependent on many factors, including the economic, political, monetary, technological, regulatory and logistical circumstances surrounding each project and the location of the project. Due to political or regulatory actions or other circumstances, projects may be delayed or even prohibited. There is no assurance that any project undertaken by the HEIPC Group will be successfully completed or that the HEIPC Group's investment in any such project will not be lost, in whole or in part. 47 Other -----

Recent accounting pronouncements -------------------------------- See note (8) and note (7) in HEI's and HECO's respective "Notes to consolidated financial statements." FINANCIAL CONDITION Liquidity and capital resources ------------------------------- The Company and consolidated HECO each believe that its ability to generate cash, both internally from operations and externally from debt and equity issues, is adequate to maintain sufficient liquidity to fund their respective construction programs and investments and to satisfy debt and other cash requirements in the foreseeable future. The consolidated capital structure of HEI was as follows:
(in millions) September 30, 2000 December 31, 1999 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Short-term borrowings............................. $ 94 4% $ 152 7% Long-term debt.................................... 1,080 47 978 44 HEI- and HECO-obligated preferred securities of trust subsidiaries............... 200 9 200 9 Preferred stock of subsidiaries................... 34 2 34 2 Minority interests................................ 1 - 1 - Common stock equity............................... 873 38 848 38 ----------- ---------- ----------- ---------- $2,282 100% $2,213 100% =========== ========== =========== ==========
ASB's deposit liabilities, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and advances from the FHLB are not included in the table above. For the first nine months of 2000, net cash provided by operating activities of consolidated HEI was $229 million. Net cash used in investing activities was $339 million, largely due to ASB's origination of loans and purchase of mortgage/asset-backed and investment securities, net of repayments, the HEIPC Group's investment in the Philippines and HECO's consolidated capital expenditures. Net cash provided by financing activities was $90 million as a result of several factors, including net increases in deposit liabilities, long- term debt and advances from Federal Home Loan Bank, partly offset by the payment of common stock dividends and trust preferred securities distributions and net decreases in securities sold under agreements to repurchase and short-term borrowings. Total HEI consolidated financing requirements for 2000 through 2004, including net capital expenditures (which exclude AFUDC and capital expenditures funded by third-party cash contributions in aid of construction), long-term debt retirements (excluding repayments of advances from the FHLB of Seattle and securities sold under agreements to repurchase) and preferred stock retirements, are estimated to total $1.2 billion. Of this amount, approximately $0.8 billion is for net capital expenditures (mostly relating to the electric utilities' net capital expenditures described below). HEI's consolidated internal sources, after the payment of HEI dividends, are expected to provide approximately 66% of the consolidated financing requirements, with debt and equity financing providing the remaining requirements. Additional debt and equity financing may be required to fund activities not included in the 2000-2004 forecast, such as increases in the amount of or an acceleration of capital expenditures of the electric utilities. In March 1999, HEI filed a registration statement with the SEC to register $300 million of Medium-Term Notes, Series C (Series C Notes). In April 2000, HEI sold $100 million of its Series C Notes, with $100 million of Series C 49 Notes remaining available for issuance from time to time. The $100 million of Series C Notes sold have a floating rate of LIBOR plus 105 basis points (adjusted every three months and an initial interest rate of 7.33%) and a maturity date of April 15, 2003. Simultaneous with the sale of the Series C Notes, however, HEI entered into a swap agreement with Bank of America, N.A., which effectively fixes the interest rate on the $100 million of debt at 7.995% until maturity. Following is a discussion of the liquidity and capital resources of HEI's largest segments. Electric utility HECO's consolidated capital structure was as follows:
(in millions) September 30, 2000 December 31, 1999 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Short-term borrowings......................... $ 82 5% $ 107 6% Long-term debt................................ 659 39 646 38 HECO-obligated preferred securities of trust subsidiaries................................. 100 6 100 6 Preferred stock............................... 34 2 34 2 Common stock equity........................... 829 48 806 48 ----------- ---------- ------------- ---------- $1,704 100% $1,693 100% =========== ========== ============= ==========
Operating activities provided $155 million in net cash during the first nine months of 2000. Investing activities used net cash of $82 million, primarily for capital expenditures. Financing activities used net cash of $71 million, including $56 million for the payment of common and preferred dividends and preferred securities distributions and $25 million for the net repayment of short-term borrowings, partially offset by a $13 million net increase in long- term debt. The electric utilities' consolidated financing requirements for 2000 through 2004, including net capital expenditures and long-term debt retirements, are estimated to total $595 million. HECO's consolidated internal sources, after the payment of common stock and preferred stock dividends, are expected to provide cash in excess of the consolidated financing requirements and may also be used to repay short-term borrowings. As of September 30, 2000, $30 million of proceeds from previous sales by the Department of Budget and Finance of the State of Hawaii of special purpose revenue bonds issued for the benefit of HECO, MECO and HELCO remain undrawn. Also as of September 30, 2000, an additional $65 million of special purpose revenue bonds remains authorized by the Hawaii Legislature for issuance for the benefit of HECO and HELCO prior to the end of 2003. The equity requirements of HECO and its subsidiaries over the five-year period will likely be met by retained earnings. The PUC must approve issuances, if any, of long-term debt and equity securities by HECO, HELCO and MECO. Capital expenditures include the costs of projects which are required to meet expected load growth, to improve reliability and to replace and upgrade existing equipment. Net capital expenditures for the five-year period 2000 through 2004 are currently estimated to total $571 million. Approximately 70% of forecast gross capital expenditures, which includes the allowance for funds used during construction and capital expenditures funded by third-party cash contributions in aid of construction, is for transmission and distribution projects, with the remaining 30% primarily for generation projects. For 2000, electric utility net capital expenditures are estimated to be $140 million. Gross capital expenditures are estimated to be $161 million, comprised of approximately $109 million for transmission and distribution projects, approximately $39 million for new generation projects and approximately $13 million for general plant and other projects. Drawdowns of proceeds from previous sales of tax-exempt special purpose revenue bonds and the generation of funds from internal sources are expected to provide the cash needed for net capital expenditures in 2000. 50 Management periodically reviews capital expenditure estimates and the timing of construction projects. These estimates may change significantly as a result of many considerations, including changes in economic conditions, changes in forecasts of KWH sales and peak load, the availability of purchased power and changes in expectations concerning the construction and ownership of future generating units, the availability of generating sites and transmission and distribution corridors, the ability to obtain adequate and timely rate increases, escalation in construction costs, demand-side management programs and requirements of environmental and other regulatory and permitting authorities.

NM Not meaningful. As of September 30, 2000, ASB was the third largest financial institution in Hawaii based on total assets of $6.0 billion and deposits of $3.6 billion. For the first nine months of 2000, net cash provided by ASB's operating activities was $61 million. Net cash used in ASB's investing activities was $168 million, due largely to the origination of loans and purchase of mortgage/asset- backed and investment securities, net of repayments. Net cash provided by financing activities was $85 million largely due to net increases of $67 million in deposit liabilities and $120 million in advances in Federal Home Loan Bank, partly offset by a net decrease of $91 million in securities sold under agreements to repurchase and $19 million in common and preferred stock dividends. Minimum liquidity levels are currently governed by the regulations adopted by the OTS. ASB was in compliance with OTS liquidity requirements as of September 30, 2000. ASB believes that a satisfactory regulatory capital position provides a basis for public confidence, affords protection to depositors, helps to ensure continued access to capital markets on favorable terms and provides a foundation for growth. As of September 30, 2000, ASB was in compliance with the OTS minimum capital requirements (noted in parentheses) with a tangible capital ratio of 5.9% (1.5%), a core capital ratio of 5.9% (4.0%) and a risk-based capital ratio of 11.2% (8.0%). Item 3. Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk ------------------------------------------------------------------ The Company considers interest rate risk to be a very significant market risk as it could potentially have a significant effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. In April 2000, HEI utilized an interest- rate swap to manage a portion of its interest rate risk. See description in Item 2, "Financial condition - Liquidity and capital resources," above. The Company is also exposed to commodity price risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk primarily due to its indirect equity investment in EAPRC. See discussion in Item 2 above. For additional quantitative and qualitative information about the Company's market risks, see pages 40 to 43 of HEI's 1999 Annual Report to Stockholders. 51 U.S. Treasury yields at September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 were as follows:
September 30, 2000 December 31, 1999 ------------------ ----------------- 3 month 6.20% 5.31% 1 year 6.08 5.96 5 year 5.84 6.34 10 year 5.80 6.44 30 year 5.88 6.48
The 3 month U.S. Treasury yield increased 89 basis points and the 30 year yield decreased 60 basis points from December 31, 1999 to September 30, 2000. Management believes that with the current inverted yield curve there was an unfavorable, but immaterial, change between December 31, 1999 and September 30, 2000 in the Company's estimated fair values of its interest-sensitive assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Item 1. Legal proceedings -------------------------- There are no significant developments in pending legal proceedings except as set forth in HECO's "Notes to consolidated financial statements," and management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations. Item 5. Other information -------------------------- A. Collective bargaining agreements In August 2000, HECO, MECO and HELCO employees represented by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, AFL-CIO, Local 1260, ratified new collective bargaining agreements covering approximately 62% of the employees of HECO, MECO and HELCO. The new collective bargaining agreements (including benefit agreements) cover a three-year period from November 1, 2000 through October 31, 2003. The main provisions of the agreements include noncompounded wage increases of 2.25% effective November 1, 2000, 2.5% effective November 1, 2001 and 2.5% effective November 1, 2002. The agreements also included increased employee contributions to medical premiums. B. EPA inspections at HECO's Waiau and Honolulu generating stations In September 1999, the EPA conducted unannounced National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit compliance inspections at HECO's Waiau and Honolulu generating stations. The resulting compliance inspection report issued by the EPA on December 22, 1999 cited procedural deficiencies in HECO's self-monitoring program. HECO submitted a response to the EPA's findings on January 27, 2000 and HECO has addressed the cited deficiencies. In September 2000, HECO and the EPA signed consent agreements under which HECO will be required to pay $200,000 in penalties. The consent agreements are subject to public comments and final EPA approval. C. Amended notice of property tax assessment for HELCO In December 1999, the County Council of Hawaii County amended its ordinances to rescind the exemption from real property taxes for utility companies. The utilities currently pay a Public Service Company (PSC) tax that, by state statutory language, is partly in lieu of real property taxes. In March 2000, the Department of Finance, Real Property Division of the County of Hawaii, sent HELCO a notice of property assessment showing total real property taxes owed of approximately $0.2 million for the fiscal year July 2000 to June 2001 and, in April 2000, the Department sent HELCO an amended notice of property assessment showing total real property taxes owed of approximately $3.9 million. HELCO appealed both the March and April 2000 notices of property assessment. HELCO filed a motion for summary judgment to have the April 2000 amended notice of property assessment held unlawful, invalid and unenforceable on the grounds of denial of an exemption to which taxpayer HELCO is entitled; 52 unconstitutionality and illegality, including overassessment; improper methodology and other procedural grounds. On July 10, 2000, the Hawaii Tax Court of Appeals ruled in HELCO's favor and granted the motion for summary judgment. On August 10, 2000, HELCO paid its PSC tax monthly installment under protest and filed a complaint against the State in Tax Appeal Court. On August 20, 2000, HELCO paid its first semi-annual real property tax installment on the March assessment under protest, consistent with the real property tax appeal filed in Tax Appeal court. The Tax Appeal Court has facilitated settlement discussions among the utilities, the County of Hawaii and the State. Discussions have expanded to include the other counties as well. In these settlement discussions, the parties are discussing a resolution which would involve dividing the PSC tax revenues between the State and the Counties. Details of the tentative settlement are still being negotiated. On September 20, 2000, the Hawaii County Council passed Bill 276, Draft 3, which attempts to validate the methodology used in the April amended assessment and would allow the County to use the values in the annual financial reports submitted to the PUC, effective January 1, 2001. However, the ordinance provides that the County will not impose this methodology if enabling legislation is passed, which is consistent with the preliminary settlement discussions described above. D.
