SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995

In connection with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (Reform Act), ESI Tractebel Funding Corp. (Funding Corp.), Northeast Energy Associates, a limited partnership (NEA) and North Jersey Energy Associates, a limited partnership (NJEA) (collectively, the Partnerships), ESI Tractebel Acquisition Corp. (Acquisition Corp.) and Northeast Energy, LP (NE LP) (all five entities collectively, the registrants) are hereby filing cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause the registrants' actual results to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in the Reform Act) made by or on behalf of the registrants in this combined Form 10-Q, in presentations, in response to questions or otherwise. Any statements that express, or involve discussions as to expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, through the use of words or phrases such as will likely result, are expected to, will continue, is anticipated, estimated, projection, outlook) are not statements of historical facts and may be forward-looking. Forward-looking statements involve estimates, assumptions and uncertainties. Accordingly, any such statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to, and are accompanied by, the following important factors that could cause the registrants' actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the registrants.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and the registrants undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all of such factors, nor can it assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.

Some important factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include changes in laws or regulations, including the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978, as amended, changing governmental policies and regulatory actions, including those of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, as amended, acquisition, disposal, depreciation and amortization of assets and facilities, operation and construction of plant facilities, recovery of fuel and purchased power costs, and present or prospective competition.

The business and profitability of the registrants are also influenced by economic and geographic factors including political and economic risks, changes in and compliance with environmental and safety laws and policies, weather conditions (including natural disasters), population growth rates and demographic patterns, competition for retail and wholesale customers, availability, pricing and transportation of fuel and other energy commodities, market demand for energy, changes in tax rates or policies or in rates of inflation or in accounting standards, unanticipated delays or changes in costs for capital projects, unanticipated changes in operating expenses and capital expenditures, capital market conditions, competition for new energy development opportunities and legal and administrative proceedings (whether civil, such as environmental, or criminal) and settlements.

All such factors are difficult to predict, contain uncertainties which may materially affect actual results, and are beyond the control of the registrants.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, condensed combined financial statements and condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2001 Form 10-K for the registrants. In the opinion of the registrants' management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for fair financial statement presentation have been made. The Funding Corp. and the Acquisition Corp. had no cash transactions for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 and therefore have not presented a statement of cash flows. The results of operations for an interim period may not give a true indication of results for the year.

2. Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

In December 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board released final guidance regarding when certain contracts for the purchase and sale of power and certain fuel supply contracts can be excluded from the provisions of FAS 133, with an effective date beginning April 1, 2002. Management has performed an evaluation of the effects of the final guidance and determined there will be no impact to NE LP's and the Partnerships' financial statements.

In January 2001, NE LP and the Partnerships recorded an unrealized $18.3 million gain as the cumulative effect of adopting FAS 133, representing the effect of those derivative instruments for which hedge accounting was not applied. For those contracts where hedge accounting was applied, the adoption of the new rules resulted in a gain of approximately $4.3 million to other comprehensive income for NE LP and the Partnerships for the twelve months ended December 31, 2001.

Accumulated other comprehensive income is separately displayed in NE LP's and the Partnerships' balance sheets. Included in NE LP's and the Partnerships' accumulated other comprehensive income at March 31, 2002 is approximately $6.2 million of net unrealized gains associated with cash flow hedges of forecasted fuel purchases through December 2002, all of which are expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months. NE LP and the Partnerships reclassified a net gain of approximately $122 thousand into earnings from accumulated other comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The effective portion of the net gain/loss on cash flow hedges (excluding the cumulative effect adjustment) included within other comprehensive income was a net gain of approximately $7.1 million and a net loss of approximately $873 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

3. Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income below includes net income and net unrealized gains on cash flow hedges of forecasted fuel purchases for both NE LP and the Partnerships of approximately $7.2 million and $3.5 million for the periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Notes to Condensed Combined Financial Statements and Notes to Condensed Financial Statements contained herein and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations appearing in the 2001 Form 10-K for the registrants. The results of operations for an interim period may not give a true indication of results for the year. In the following discussion, all comparisons are with the corresponding items in the prior year.

Results of Operations

NE LP and the Partnerships - Net income increased for the three months ended March 31, 2002 primarily due to higher revenues and net unrealized mark-to-market gains on derivatives, partly offset by increased fuel costs.

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2002 improved primarily as a result of increased electricity sales prices. Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 were comprised of $101.3 million and $91.3 million of power sales to utilities and $1.1 million and $1.2 million of steam sales, respectively. Power sales to utilities for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 reflect changes in utility energy bank balances of $7.1 million and $6.0 million, respectively. The changes in the energy bank balances, which increased reported revenues, are determined in accordance with scheduled or specified rates under certain power purchase agreements.

Fuel expense for the three months ended March 31, 2002 increased primarily as a result of unfavorable swap and option settlements. These fuel costs for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, were partly offset by $5.2 million of deferred credit amortization for fuel contracts. Operations and maintenance expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2002 decreased primarily due to lower repair and maintenance costs.

In December 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board released final guidance regarding when certain contracts for the purchase and sale of power and certain fuel supply contracts can be excluded from the provisions of FAS 133, with an effective date beginning April 1, 2002. Management has performed an evaluation of the effects of the final guidance and determined there will be no impact to NE LP's and the Partnerships' financial statements.

In January 2001, NE LP and the Partnerships recorded an unrealized $18.3 million gain as the cumulative effect of adopting FAS 133, representing the effect of those derivative instruments for which hedge accounting was not applied. In addition, for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, NE LP and the Partnerships recorded net unrealized mark-to-market gains/(losses) of $3.5 million and ($18.1) million respectively, representing the net change in fair value of derivative instruments.

Each of NE LP and the Partnerships make scheduled interest and/or principal payments on their outstanding debt. Each are scheduled to make semi-annual debt and/or interest payments on June 30 and December 30. Interest expense for NE LP and the Partnerships decreased as a result of decreasing principal balances on the securities payable.

The Funding Corp. and the Acquisition Corp. - Both the Funding Corp. and the Acquisition Corp. use interest income and/or principal payments received from the notes receivable from the Partnerships and NE LP, respectively, to make scheduled interest and/or principal payments on their outstanding debt. Both are scheduled to make semi-annual debt and/or interest payments on June 30 and December 30. Interest expense for the Funding Corp. decreased in each of 2002 and 2001 as a result of decreasing principal balances on the securities payable.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

NE LP and the Partnerships - Net cash provided by operating activities for NE LP and the Partnerships for the three months ended March 31, 2002 decreased over the three months ended March 31, 2001 by $25.4 million and $25.5 million, respectively. This decrease is primarily due to timing of cash receipts under certain agreements.

Market Risk Sensitivity

The fair value of derivative instruments on March 31, 2002 was a positive $6.3 million for NE LP and the Partnerships. The effect of a hypothetical 40% decrease in natural gas prices would be to change the fair value of these instruments to a negative $9.9 million for NE LP and the Partnerships.
