Item 5. OTHER EVENTS

On August 27, 2003, the Oregon Public Utility Commission (OPUC) announced the granting of approximately $8.5 million of additional annual revenues to PacifiCorp following an all-parties settlement to the general rate case. In addition, PacifiCorp has been awarded a one-off amount of $12 million for 2004 by early removal of a merger credit to customers following the delivery of transition plan commitments. The company is also being allowed to implement the new rates by September 1, 2003, approximately five months earlier than scheduled, resulting in a $5 million benefit in the current fiscal year. The settlement will lead to an average overall price increase in Oregon of approximately 1%.
