Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

     On May 19, 2005, Arizona Public Service Company (“APS”) entered into two separate amended and restated reimbursement agreements (the “Amended Agreements”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, as Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank, Barclays Bank PLC, as Syndication Agent, and the lender parties thereto. The Amended Agreements amended and restated reimbursement agreements entered into in 2002 that would have expired on July 22, 2005. Under the Amended Agreements, the Issuing Bank amended and extended two separate letters of credit (the “Letters of Credit”) that were previously issued to the two separate equity participants in APS’ August 1986 sale leaseback transactions, pursuant to which APS sold and leased back a portion of its interest in Unit 2 of the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station (“Palo Verde”). The Letters of Credit support the equity participant’s portion of rental payments that APS makes under the leases entered into in its August 1986 sale leaseback transactions (the “Sale Leaseback Leases”).

     Each equity participant may draw up to the full amount of its Letter of Credit if an event of default under its related Sale Leaseback Lease has occurred and is continuing. APS must repay the full amount of any draw under the Letters of Credit to the Issuing Bank, with interest, within 5 business days after the draw. The Sale Leaseback Leases contain typical events of default, including APS’ failure to make payments under the Sale Leaseback Leases when due; APS’ failure to perform its covenants under the Sale Leaseback Leases and other sale leaseback documents after a grace period in certain cases; APS’ failure to provide a renewal or replacement letter of credit within specified time periods prior to the termination date; certain defaults by APS under the Arizona Nuclear Power Project Participation Agreement dated as of August 23, 1973, as amended, among APS and the other owners of Palo Verde, including any such default that results in a suspension of APS’ right to receive its share of electricity from Palo Verde; and certain cross defaults from other APS debt.

     The Issuing Bank may give notice to the equity participants of the early termination of the Letters of Credit if an event of default under the Amended Agreements has occurred and is continuing. After receipt of any such notice of early termination, the equity participants will have the right to draw up to the full amount of the Letters of Credit. The Amended Agreements contain typical default provisions, including APS’ failure to make payments under the Amended Agreements when due; APS’ failure to perform its covenants under the Amended Agreements after a grace period in certain cases; certain events of default under the Sale Leaseback Leases, and certain cross defaults from other debt or certain operating leases. The Amended Agreements include customary covenants, including a negative lien provision and requirements that APS maintain a maximum consolidated debt-to-consolidated capitalization ratio and a minimum consolidated cash coverage ratio.

     The maximum amount that the equity participants may draw under the Letters of Credit is $100,392,775.45 on May 19, 2005. Such amount will decrease over the term of the Amended Agreements to $61,813,393.44 at the expiration of the Letters of Credit. The Amended Agreements will expire on May 19, 2010 unless earlier terminated in accordance with their terms.

     APS and its affiliates maintain normal banking and other relationships with the agents and other lenders in the facility.
