                           Forward-Looking Statements

This  presentation   contains   forward-looking   statements  based  on  current
expectations,  and the Company assumes no obligation to update these  statements
or make any further  statements  on any of these  issues,  except as required by
applicable law. Because actual results may differ materially from  expectations,
the Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on these statements.  A
number  of  factors  could  cause  future  results  to  differ  materially  from
historical  results, or from results or outcomes currently expected or sought by
the Company.  These factors  include the ongoing  restructuring  of the electric
industry;  including the introduction of retail electric  competition in Arizona
and decisions  impacting  wholesale  competition;  the outcome of regulatory and
legislative  proceedings  relating  to  the  restructuring;  state  and  federal
regulatory and legislative decisions and actions, including price caps and other
market constraints imposed by the FERC; regional economic and market conditions,
including  the  California  energy  situation and  completion of generation  and
transmission  construction in the region, which could affect customer growth and
the cost of power  supplies;  the cost of debt and equity  capital and access to
capital markets;  energy usage;  weather variations affecting local and regional
customer  energy usage;  conservation  programs;  power plant  performance;  the
successful completion of our generation construction program;  regulatory issues
associated with generation construction , such as permitting and licensing;  our
ability to compete successfully outside traditional regulated markets (including
the wholesale market);our ability to manage our marketing and trading activities
and the use of derivative contracts in our business;  technological developments
in the electric industry; the performance of the stock market, which affects the
amount  of  our  required   contributions   to  our  pension  plan  and  nuclear
decommissioning  trust funds; the strength of the real estate market in SunCor's
market  areas,   which  include   Arizona,   New  Mexico  and  Utah;  and  other
uncertainties,  all of which  are  difficult  to  predict  and many of which are
beyond our control.

                                                                               2
