Exhibit 18(a)
February 18, 2010
Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC
1601 Bryan Street
Dallas, Texas 75201
Dear Sirs/Madams:
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC and subsidiary (Oncor) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 (successor), and for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 (successor), the period from October 11, 2007 through December 31, 2007 (successor) and the period from January 1, 2007 through October 10, 2007 (predecessor), included in your Annual Report on Form 10-K to the Securities and Exchange Commission and have issued our report thereon dated February 18, 2010 (which report expresses an unqualified opinion and includes an explanatory paragraph related to Oncor being an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Energy Future Holdings Corp., which was merged with Texas Energy Future Merger Sub Corp on October 10, 2007). Note 1 to such financial statements contains a description of your change, during the year ended December 31, 2009, in the date for the annual goodwill impairment test for your reporting unit. In our judgment, such change is to an alternative accounting principle that is preferable under the circumstances.
Yours truly,
/s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP
Dallas, Texas
