("Charter Oak"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Northeast Utilities ("NU"), a registered holding company, hereby files this quarterly report as required by the Securities and Exchange Commission's supplemental order authorizing preliminary development activities and financing related to such activities and to acquisitions of interests in exempt wholesale generators ("EWGs") and foreign utility companies ("FUCOs") by Charter Oak (HCAR. No. 25977, January 24, 1994, File No. 70-8062; HCAR. No. 26116, September 2, 1994, File No. 70-8062; and HCAR. No. 26134, September 30, 1994, File No. 70-8062). (1) BALANCE SHEET AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1994: Attached as Exhibit A. (2) INCOME STATEMENT FOR THE QUARTER ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994: Attached as Exhibit B. (3) GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE ACTIVITIES OF CHARTER OAK FOR THE QUARTER ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994, AND OF THE PROJECTS IN WHICH CHARTER OAK OR ITS SUBSIDIARIES HAVE AN INTEREST: During the fourth quarter of 1994, pursuant to the permission granted by the Commission in the December 30, 1992 (HCAR. No. 25726), January 24 (HCAR. No. 25977), September 2, 1994 (HCAR. No. 26116), and September 30, 1994 (HCAR. No. 26134) orders, Charter Oak, through its wholly-owned subsidiary COE Development Corporation ("COE Development"), has participated in preliminary development activities for potential qualifying cogeneration and small power production facilities (collectively, "QFs"), independent power projects ("IPPs"), EWGs, and FUCOs. These activities have been performed by COE Development both on its own and with unaffiliated third parties. The relationships between COE Development and such unaffiliated third parties have been in the form of cost-sharing contractual arrangements and have not involved the formation of corporations, partnerships, joint ventures or other business entities. On January 24, 1994, September 2, 1994, and September 30, 1994 the Commission authorized NU to make investments in Charter Oak, and Charter Oak to make investments in COE Development, in the amount of up to $100 million, through December 31, 1994, for preliminary development activities and for acquisitions of interests in specified power projects. This authorization includes preliminary development of QFs, IPPs, EWGs, and FUCOs as well as investments in EWGs and FUCOs. COE Development is engaged in constructing a 114 MW natural gas-fired project located in the Republic of Argentina and plans to begin construction of a 20 MW wind project in Costa Rica in the spring of 1995. Charter Oak, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Charter Oak (Paris), Inc., pursuant to the permission granted by the Commission (HCAR. No. 24893), has an approximately 10% beneficial equity ownership interest in a 213 MW gas-fired operational qualifying cogeneration facility in Paris, Texas. On September 24, 1993, NU was granted permission (HCAR. No. 70-8084) to invest up to $7 million in Charter Oak for the purchase of an interest in two non-utility subsidiaries to own an interest in a foreign utility company, Encoe Partners. Encoe Partners is a general partnership formed for the sole purpose of building, owning and operating a power generating facility in the United Kingdom ("Power Plant") and acquiring a one-third interest in certain rights and obligations under a power contract. The Power Plant is 2.176 MW and will produce power by harnessing the pressure in the natural gas pipeline feeding the 1,875 MW Teesside Project in Teesside, Wilton, Cleveland, England. This transaction was completed by Charter Oak on the close of business on September 30, 1993 by acquiring interests in two non-utility subsidiary companies, COE (UK) Corp. and COE (GENCOE) Corp. At this time, none of the other projects Charter Oak is currently pursuing are sufficiently defined to move beyond the preliminary development stage and therefore are not contained in this report. SIGNATURE Pursuant to the requirements of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, the undersigned company has duly caused this Certificate to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
