GLOSSARY

When the following terms and abbreviations appear in the text of this report, they have the meanings indicated below.

 

2009 Form 10-K		EFH Corp.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009
Adjusted EBITDA		Adjusted EBITDA means EBITDA adjusted to exclude non-cash items, unusual items and other adjustments allowable under certain of our debt arrangements. See the definition of EBITDA below. Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are not recognized terms under GAAP and, thus, are non-GAAP financial measures. We are providing Adjusted EBITDA in this Form 10-Q (see reconciliation in Exhibits 99(b), 99(c) and 99(d)) solely because of the important role that Adjusted EBITDA plays in respect of the certain covenants contained in our debt arrangements. We do not intend for Adjusted EBITDA (or EBITDA) to be an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity or an alternative to any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, we do not intend for Adjusted EBITDA (or EBITDA) to be used as a measure of free cash flow available for management’s discretionary use, as the measure excludes certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and other debt service requirements. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA (and EBITDA) may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Competitive Electric segment		Refers to the EFH Corp. business segment that consists principally of TCEH.
CREZ		Competitive Renewable Energy Zone
EBITDA		Refers to earnings (net income) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. See the definition of Adjusted EBITDA above.

EFH Corp.		Refers to Energy Future Holdings Corp., a holding company, and/or its subsidiaries, depending on context. Its major subsidiaries include TCEH and Oncor.

EFH Corp. Senior Secured Notes		Refers collectively to EFH Corp.’s 9.75% Senior Secured Notes due October 15, 2019 (EFH Corp. 9.75% Notes) and EFH Corp.’s 10.000% Senior Secured Notes due January 15, 2020 (EFH Corp. 10% Notes).
EFIH Finance		Refers to EFIH Finance Inc., a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Intermediate Holding, formed for the sole purpose of serving as co-issuer with Intermediate Holding of certain debt securities.
EFIH 9.75% Notes		Refers to Intermediate Holding’s and EFIH Finance’s 9.75% Senior Secured Notes due October 15, 2019.

Forward wholesale electricity market price quotes in ERCOT are generally limited to two or three years; accordingly, forward market heat rates are generally limited to the same time period. Forecasted market heat rates for time periods for which market price quotes are not available are based on fundamental economic factors and forecasts, including electricity supply, demand growth, capital costs associated with new construction of generation supply, transmission development and other factors.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1.	BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business

EFH Corp., a Texas corporation, is a Dallas-based holding company with operations consisting principally of our TCEH and Oncor subsidiaries. TCEH is a holding company for subsidiaries engaged in competitive electricity market activities largely in Texas, including electricity generation, wholesale energy sales and purchases, commodity risk management and trading activities, and retail electricity sales. Oncor is a majority (approximately 80%) owned subsidiary engaged in regulated electricity transmission and distribution operations in Texas. See Note 3 regarding the deconsolidation of Oncor (and its majority owner, Oncor Holdings) as a result of amended consolidation accounting standards related to variable interest entities (VIEs) effective January 1, 2010.

References in this report to “we,” “our,” “us” and “the company” are to EFH Corp. and/or its subsidiaries, TCEH and/or its subsidiaries, or Oncor and/or its subsidiary as apparent in the context. See “Glossary” for other defined terms.

Various “ring-fencing” measures have been taken to enhance the credit quality of Oncor. Such measures include, among other things: the sale of a 19.75% equity interest in Oncor to Texas Transmission in November 2008; maintenance of separate books and records for the Oncor Ring-Fenced Entities; Oncor’s board of directors being comprised of a majority of independent directors, and prohibitions on the Oncor Ring-Fenced Entities providing credit support to, or receiving credit support from, any member of the Texas Holdings Group. The assets and liabilities of the Oncor Ring-Fenced Entities are separate and distinct from those of the Texas Holdings Group, and none of the assets of the Oncor Ring-Fenced Entities are available to satisfy the debt or contractual obligations of any member of the Texas Holdings Group. Moreover, Oncor’s operations are conducted, and its cash flows managed, independently from the Texas Holdings Group.

We have two reportable segments: the Competitive Electric segment, which is comprised principally of TCEH, and the Regulated Delivery segment, which is comprised of Oncor and its wholly-owned bankruptcy-remote financing subsidiary. See Note 15 for further information concerning reportable business segments.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP and on the same basis as the audited financial statements included in the 2009 Form 10-K with the exception of the prospective adoption of amended guidance regarding consolidation accounting standards related to VIEs that resulted in the deconsolidation of Oncor Holdings as discussed in Note 3 and amended guidance regarding transfers of financial assets that resulted in the accounts receivable securitization program no longer being accounted for as a sale of accounts receivable and the funding under the program now reported as short-term borrowings as discussed in Note 5. Investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries, which are 50% or less owned and/or do not meet accounting standards criteria for consolidation, are accounted for under the equity method (see Notes 2 and 3). All adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and financial position have been included therein. All intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All acquisitions of outstanding debt for cash, including the notes that had been issued in lieu of cash interest, are presented in the financing activities section of the statement of cash flows. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Because the condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP, they should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes included in the 2009 Form 10-K. The results of operations for an interim period may not give a true indication of results for a full year. All dollar amounts in the financial statements and tables in the notes are stated in millions of US dollars unless otherwise indicated.

Preparation of financial statements requires estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the reporting of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and the reported amounts of revenue and expense, including fair value measurements. In the event estimates and/or assumptions prove to be different from actual amounts, adjustments are made in subsequent periods to reflect more current information. No material adjustments, other than those disclosed elsewhere herein, were made to previous estimates or assumptions during the current year.

Changes in Accounting Standards

In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance that requires reconsideration of consolidation conclusions for all VIEs and other entities with which we are involved. We adopted this new guidance as of January 1, 2010. See Note 3 for discussion of our evaluation of VIEs and the resulting deconsolidation of Oncor Holdings and its subsidiaries that resulted in our investment in Oncor Holdings and its subsidiaries being prospectively reported as an equity method investment. There were no other material effects on our financial statements as a result of the adoption of this new guidance.

In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance regarding accounting for transfers of financial assets that eliminates the concept of a qualifying special purpose entity, changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets and requires additional disclosures. We adopted this new guidance as of January 1, 2010. Accordingly, the trade accounts receivable amounts under the accounts receivable securitization program discussed in Note 5 are prospectively reported as pledged balances, and the related funding amounts are reported as short-term borrowings. Prior to January 1, 2010, the activity was accounted for as a sale of accounts receivable in accordance with previous accounting standards, which resulted in the funding being recorded as a reduction of accounts receivable. This new guidance does not impact the covenant-related ratio calculations in our debt agreements.

3.	CONSOLIDATION OF VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

We adopted amended accounting standards on January 1, 2010 that require consolidation of a VIE if we have the power to direct the significant activities of the VIE and the right or obligation to absorb profit and loss from the VIE. A VIE is an entity with which we have a relationship or arrangement that indicates some level of control over the entity or results in economic risks to us. As discussed below, our balance sheet includes assets and liabilities of VIEs that meet the consolidation standards and also reflects the deconsolidation of Oncor Holdings, which holds an approximate 80% interest in Oncor.

Our variable interests consist of equity investments. In determining the appropriateness of consolidation of a VIE, we evaluate its purpose, governance structure, decision making processes and risks that are passed on to its interest holders. We also examine the nature of any related party relationships among the interest holders of the VIE and the nature of any special rights granted to the interest holders of the VIE.

Consolidated VIEs

See discussion in Note 5 regarding the VIE related to our accounts receivable securitization program that continues to be consolidated under the amended accounting standards.

We also continue to consolidate Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Company LLC (CPNPC), which was formed by subsidiaries of TCEH and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. (MHI) for the purpose of developing two new nuclear generation units at our existing Comanche Peak nuclear-fueled generation facility using MHI’s US-Advanced Pressurized Water Reactor technology and to obtain a combined operating license from the NRC. CPNPC is currently financed through capital contributions from the subsidiaries of TCEH and MHI that hold 88% and 12% of the equity interests, respectively (see Note 8).

The carrying amounts and classifications of the assets and liabilities related to our consolidated VIEs as of June 30, 2010 are as follows:

 

Assets:					Liabilities:
Cash and cash equivalents		$	8		Short-term borrowings (a)		$	158
Accounts receivable (a)			880		Trade accounts payable			3
Property, plant and equipment			93		Other current liabilities			1
Other assets, including $2 of current assets			9
Total assets		$	990		Total liabilities		$	162

 

(a)	As a result of the January 1, 2010 adoption of new accounting guidance related to transfers of financial assets, the balance sheet at June 30, 2010 reflects $880 million of pledged accounts receivable and $158 million of short-term borrowings (see Note 5).

The assets of our consolidated VIEs can only be used to settle the obligations of the VIE, and the creditors of our consolidated VIEs do not have recourse to our general credit.

Non-Consolidated VIEs

The adoption of the amended accounting standards resulted in the deconsolidation of Oncor Holdings, which holds an approximate 80% interest in Oncor, and the reporting of our investment in Oncor Holdings under the equity method on a prospective basis.

In reaching the conclusion to deconsolidate, we conducted an extensive analysis of Oncor Holdings’ underlying governing documents and management structure. Oncor Holdings’ unique governance structure was adopted in conjunction with the Merger, when the Sponsor Group, EFH Corp. and Oncor agreed to implement structural and operational measures to “ring-fence” (the Ring-Fencing Measures) Oncor Holdings and Oncor as discussed in Note 1. The Ring-Fencing Measures were designed to prevent, among other things, (i) increased borrowing costs at Oncor due to the attribution to Oncor of debt from any of our other subsidiaries, (ii) the activities of our unregulated operations following the Merger resulting in the deterioration of Oncor’s business, financial condition and/or investment in infrastructure, and (iii) Oncor becoming substantively consolidated into a bankruptcy proceeding involving any member of the Texas Holdings Group. The Ring-Fencing Measures effectively separated the daily operational and management control of Oncor Holdings and Oncor from EFH Corp. and its other subsidiaries. By implementing the Ring-Fencing Measures, Oncor maintained its investment grade credit rating following the Merger and reaffirmed Oncor’s independence from our unregulated businesses to the PUCT.

We determined the most significant activities affecting the economic performance of Oncor Holdings (and Oncor) are the operation, maintenance and growth of Oncor’s electric transmission and distribution assets and the preservation of its investment grade credit profile. The boards of directors of Oncor Holdings and Oncor have ultimate responsibility for the management of the day-to-day operations of their respective businesses, including the approval of Oncor’s capital expenditure and operating budgets and the timing and prosecution of Oncor’s rate cases. While the boards include members appointed by EFH Corp., a majority of the board members are independent in accordance with rules established by the New York Stock Exchange, and therefore, we concluded for purposes of applying the amended accounting standards that EFH Corp. does not have power to control the activities deemed most significant to Oncor Holdings’ (and Oncor’s) economic performance.

In assessing EFH Corp.’s ability to exercise control over Oncor Holdings and Oncor, we considered whether it could take actions to circumvent the purpose and intent of the Ring-Fencing Measures (including changing the composition of Oncor Holdings’ or Oncor’s board) in order to gain control over the day-to-day operations of either Oncor Holdings or Oncor. We also considered whether (i) EFH Corp. has the unilateral power to dissolve, liquidate or force into bankruptcy either Oncor Holdings or Oncor, (ii) EFH Corp. could unilaterally amend the Ring-Fencing Measures contained in underlying governing documents of Oncor Holdings or Oncor, and (iii) EFH Corp. could control Oncor’s ability to pay distributions and thereby enhance its own cash flow. We concluded that, in each case, no such opportunity exists.

We account for our investment in Oncor Holdings under the equity method, as opposed to the cost method, because we have the ability to exercise significant influence (as defined by US GAAP) over its activities.

The carrying value of our variable interest in VIEs that we do not consolidate totaled $5.450 billion at June 30, 2010, which represents our investment in Oncor Holdings, and is reported as investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries in the balance sheet. Our maximum exposure to loss from these interests does not exceed our carrying value. See Note 2 for additional information about equity method investments including condensed income statement and balance sheet data for Oncor Holdings.

4.	GOODWILL AND IDENTIFIABLE INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

Reported goodwill as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 totaled $10.2 billion and $14.3 billion, respectively, with $10.2 billion assigned to the Competitive Electric segment. The change from December 31, 2009 reflects the deconsolidation of Oncor Holdings effective January 1, 2010 due to the adoption of new accounting guidance for consolidation discussed in Note 1, as $4.1 billion of goodwill has been assigned to the Regulated Delivery segment. None of the goodwill is being deducted for tax purposes.

EFH Corp. management continues to evaluate the effect of declining wholesale power prices, largely due to lower natural gas prices, on the carrying value of goodwill related to the Competitive Electric segment. In light of the continuing decline in natural gas prices, this evaluation could result in the recording of a non-cash goodwill impairment charge, possibly in the third quarter 2010.

Identifiable Intangible Assets

Identifiable intangible assets reported in the balance sheet are comprised of the following:

5.	TRADE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE SECURITIZATION PROGRAM

TXU Energy participates in EFH Corp.’s accounts receivable securitization program with financial institutions (the funding entities). Under the program, TXU Energy (originator) sells trade accounts receivable to TXU Receivables Company, which is an entity created for the special purpose of purchasing receivables from the originator and is a consolidated wholly-owned bankruptcy-remote direct subsidiary of EFH Corp. TXU Receivables Company sells undivided interests in the purchased accounts receivable for cash to entities established for this purpose by the funding entities. In accordance with the amended transfers and servicing accounting standard as discussed in Note 1, the trade accounts receivable amounts under the program are reported as pledged balances, and the related funding amounts are reported as short-term borrowings. Prior to January 1, 2010, the activity was accounted for as a sale of accounts receivable in accordance with previous accounting standards, which resulted in the funding being recorded as a reduction of accounts receivable.

In June 2010, the accounts receivable securitization program was amended. The amendments, among other things, reduced the maximum funding amount under the program to $350 million from $700 million. Program funding declined from $383 million at December 31, 2009 to $158 million at June 30, 2010. Under the terms of the program, available funding was reduced by $46 million of customer deposits held by the originator because TCEH’s credit ratings were lower than Ba3/BB-. The declines in actual and maximum funding amounts reflected exclusion of receivables under contractual sales agreements.

All new trade receivables under the program generated by the originator are continuously purchased by TXU Receivables Company with the proceeds from collections of receivables previously purchased. Ongoing changes in the amount of funding under the program, through changes in the amount of undivided interests sold by TXU Receivables Company, reflect seasonal variations in the level of accounts receivable, changes in collection trends and other factors such as changes in sales prices and volumes. TXU Receivables Company has issued a subordinated note payable to the originator for the difference between the face amount of the uncollected accounts receivable purchased, less a discount, and cash paid to the originator that was funded by the sale of the undivided interests. The subordinated note issued by TXU Receivables Company is subordinated to the undivided interests of the funding entities in the purchased receivables. The balance of the subordinated note payable, which is eliminated in consolidation, totaled $722 million and $463 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

The discount from face amount on the purchase of receivables from the originator principally funds program fees paid to the funding entities. The program fees consist primarily of interest costs on the underlying financing. Consistent with the change in balance sheet presentation of the funding discussed above, the program fees are currently reported as interest expense and related charges but were previously reported as losses on sale of receivables reported in SG&A expense. The discount also funds a servicing fee, which is reported as SG&A expense, paid by TXU Receivables Company to EFH Corporate Services Company (Service Co.), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of EFH Corp., which provides recordkeeping services and is the collection agent for the program.

Program fee amounts were as follows:

 

		Three Months Ended June 30,								Six Months Ended June 30,
		2010				2009				2010				2009
Program fees		$	3			$	3			$	5			$	7
Program fees as a percentage of average funding (annualized)			4.2	%			2.9	%			2.8	%			3.3	%

Funding under the program decreased $225 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and increased $80 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009.

Table of Contents

Activities of TXU Receivables Company were as follows:

 

		Six Months Ended June 30,
		2010				2009
Cash collections on accounts receivable		$	2,921			$	2,769
Face amount of new receivables purchased			(2,955	)			(2,931	)

Program fees paid to funding entities			(5	)			(7	)

Increase in subordinated notes payable			259				82
Financing/operating cash flows used by (provided to) originator under the program		$	225			$	(80	)

Changes in funding under the program have previously been reported as operating cash flows, and the amended accounting rule requires that the amount of funding under the program upon the January 1, 2010 adoption ($383 million) be reported as a use of operating cash flows and a source of financing cash flows. All changes in funding subsequent to adoption of the amended standard are reported as financing activities.

The program, which expires in October 2013, may be terminated upon the occurrence of a number of specified events, including if the delinquency ratio (delinquent for 31 days) for the sold receivables, the default ratio (delinquent for 91 days or deemed uncollectible), the dilution ratio (reductions for discounts, disputes and other allowances) or the days collection outstanding ratio exceed stated thresholds, and the funding entities do not waive such event of termination. The thresholds apply to the entire portfolio of sold receivables. In addition, the program may be terminated if TXU Receivables Company or Service Co. defaults in any payment with respect to debt in excess of $50,000 in the aggregate for such entities, or if TCEH, any affiliate of TCEH acting as collection agent other than Service Co., any parent guarantor of the originator or the originator shall default in any payment with respect to debt (other than hedging obligations) in excess of $200 million in the aggregate for such entities. As of June 30, 2010, there were no such events of termination.

Upon termination of the program, liquidity would be reduced as collections of sold receivables would be used by TXU Receivables Company to repurchase the undivided interests from the funding entities instead of purchasing new receivables. The level of cash flows would normalize in approximately 16 to 30 days.

Trade Accounts Receivable

 

		June 30, 2010 (a)				December 31, 2009
Wholesale and retail trade accounts receivable, including $880 in pledged retail receivables at June 30, 2010		$	1,348			$	1,726

Debt-Related Activity in 2010 — Repayments of long-term debt in 2010 totaling $190 million represented principal payments at scheduled maturity dates as well as other repayments totaling $87 million, principally related to capitalized leases. Payments at scheduled amortization or maturity dates included $82 million repaid under the TCEH Initial Term Loan Facility and $21 million repaid under the TCEH Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility. See “2010 Debt Exchanges and Repurchases” below for $460 million principal amount of debt acquired in debt exchanges and repurchases completed in March through June 2010 and $648 million principal amount of debt acquired in debt exchanges and repurchases in July 2010.

Long-term debt increased as a result of EFH Corp. issuing, through the payment-in-kind (PIK) election, $162 million principal amount of its 11.25%/12.00% Senior Toggle Notes due November 2017 (EFH Corp. Toggle Notes) and TCEH issuing, through the PIK election, $110 million principal amount of its 10.50%/11.25% Senior Toggle Notes due November 2016 (TCEH Toggle Notes), in each case, in lieu of making cash interest payments.

EFH Corp. 10% Senior Secured Notes — In January 2010, EFH Corp. issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 10.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2020 (the EFH Corp. 10% Notes). In various exchange transactions during 2010, EFH Corp. issued an additional $561 million of EFH Corp. 10% Notes (see “2010 Debt Exchanges and Repurchases” below). The notes will mature on January 15, 2020, and interest is payable in cash in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning July 15, 2010, at a fixed rate of 10.00% per annum.

The EFH Corp. 10% Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by EFC Holdings and Intermediate Holding. The guarantee from Intermediate Holding is secured by the pledge of all membership interests and other investments Intermediate Holding owns or holds in Oncor Holdings or any of Oncor Holdings’ subsidiaries (the Collateral). The guarantee from EFC Holdings is not secured. The EFH Corp. 10% Notes are secured by the Collateral on an equal and ratable basis with the EFH Corp. 9.75% Senior Secured Notes and EFIH 9.75% Notes.

The EFH Corp. 10% Notes are a senior obligation and rank equally in right of payment with all senior indebtedness of EFH Corp. and are senior in right of payment to any future subordinated indebtedness of EFH Corp. These notes are effectively subordinated to any indebtedness of EFH Corp. secured by assets of EFH Corp. to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness and structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities of EFH Corp.’s non-guarantor subsidiaries.

The guarantees of the EFH Corp. 10% Notes are the general senior obligations of each guarantor and rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of each guarantor. The guarantee from Intermediate Holding is effectively senior to all unsecured indebtedness of Intermediate Holding to the extent of the value of the Collateral. The guarantees are effectively subordinated to all secured indebtedness of each guarantor secured by assets other than the Collateral to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness and are structurally subordinated to any existing and future indebtedness and liabilities of EFH Corp.’s subsidiaries that are not guarantors.

The EFH Corp. 10% Notes and indenture governing such notes restrict EFH Corp. and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things, make restricted payments, incur debt and issue preferred stock, incur liens, pay dividends, merge, consolidate or sell assets and engage in certain transactions with affiliates. These covenants are subject to a number of limitations and exceptions. These notes and indenture also contain customary events of default, including, among others, failure to pay principal or interest on the notes when due. If certain events of default occur and are continuing under these notes and the related indenture, the trustee or the holders of at least 30% in principal amount outstanding of the notes may declare the principal amount of the notes to be due and payable immediately.

Until January 15, 2013, EFH Corp. may redeem, with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings, up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the EFH Corp. 10% Notes from time to time at a redemption price of 110.000% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. EFH Corp. may redeem the notes at any time prior to January 15, 2015 at a price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and the applicable premium as defined in the indenture. EFH Corp. may also redeem the notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after January 15, 2015, at specified redemption prices, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. Upon the occurrence of a change of control (as described in the indenture), EFH Corp. must offer to repurchase the notes at 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

The EFH Corp. 10% Notes were issued in private placements and have not been registered under the Securities Act. EFH Corp. has agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to register with the SEC notes having substantially identical terms as the EFH Corp. 10% Notes (except for provisions relating to the transfer restrictions and payment of additional interest) as part of an offer to exchange freely tradable exchange notes for the EFH Corp. 10% Notes. EFH Corp. has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the exchange offer to be completed or, if required under special circumstances, to have one or more shelf registration statements declared effective, within 360 days after the issue date of the notes. If this obligation is not satisfied (a Registration Default), the annual interest rate on the notes will increase by 25 basis points for the first 90-day period during which a Registration Default continues, and thereafter the annual interest rate on the notes will increase by 50 basis points for the remaining period during which the Registration Default continues. If the Registration Default is cured, the interest rate on the notes will revert to the original level.

In connection with the transactions involving the EFH Corp. 5.55% Notes in July 2010, the holder of a majority of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the EFH Corp. 5.55% Notes gave its consent to certain amendments to the indenture that governs the EFH Corp. 5.55% Notes. As a result of the consent, EFH Corp. and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee under the indenture, amended and supplemented the indenture. The amendments to the indenture, among other things, modified or eliminated substantially all of the restrictive covenants contained in the indenture, modified or eliminated certain events of default, modified covenants regarding mergers and consolidations and modified or eliminated certain other provisions of the indenture, including the limitation on the incurrence of secured indebtedness.

The EFH Corp. Toggle and 10.875% Notes acquired in the transactions described above have been cancelled, and the TCEH notes and initial term loans under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities acquired are held as an investment by EFH Corp.

July 2010 Debt Exchange Offers — In July 2010, Intermediate Holding and EFIH Finance, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Intermediate Holding, (collectively, the Offerors) commenced offers to exchange outstanding EFH Corp. Toggle Notes and EFH Corp. 10.875% Notes (collectively, the Exchange Notes) for up to $2.18 billion aggregate principal amount of new 10.000% senior secured notes due 2020 (new senior secured notes) to be issued by the Offerors and an aggregate of up to $500 million in cash, subject to certain conditions. The purpose of the exchange offers is to reduce the outstanding principal amount and extend the weighted average maturity of the long-term debt of EFH Corp. and its subsidiaries.

Concurrent with the exchange offers, EFH Corp. solicited consents from holders of the Exchange Notes to certain proposed amendments to the indenture that governs the Exchange Notes. The proposed amendments would eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants in the indenture, eliminate certain events of default, modify the covenant regarding mergers and consolidations, and modify or eliminate certain other provisions.

EFH Corp. has been advised by the exchange agent for the exchange offers that, as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 29, 2010, consents were delivered with respect to $4.47 billion aggregate principal amount of outstanding Exchange Notes, representing approximately 99.5% of the outstanding Exchange Notes. As a result, EFH Corp. received the requisite consents to adopt, and executed a supplemental indenture to effectuate, the proposed amendments. This supplemental indenture to the indenture related to the Exchange Notes will not become operative until the exchange offers are complete.

The consummation of the exchange offers is conditioned, among other things, on at least a majority of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of Exchange Notes being validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) at or prior to midnight, New York City time, on August 12, 2010. Subject to applicable law, the Offerors have the right to amend any of the exchange offers or the consent solicitation at any time and for any reason and to terminate or withdraw any of the exchange offers and consent solicitation if any of the applicable conditions are not satisfied.

The Offerors filed a registration statement on Form S-4 (Registration Statement) relating to the exchange offers and the consent solicitation with the SEC in July 2010. The Registration Statement has not yet become effective, and the new senior secured notes may not be issued, nor may the exchange offers be completed, until such time as the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC and is not subject to a stop order or any proceedings for that purpose. There is no assurance that the exchange offers will be completed or that they will be completed on the contemplated terms and conditions.

TCEH Senior Secured Facilities — The applicable rate on borrowings under the TCEH Initial Term Loan Facility, the TCEH Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility, the TCEH Revolving Credit Facility and the TCEH Letter of Credit Facility as of June 30, 2010 is provided in the long-term debt table and in the discussion of short-term borrowings above and reflects LIBOR-based borrowings. These borrowings totaled $22.016 billion at June 30, 2010, excluding $20 million held by EFH Corp. as a result of debt repurchases.

In August 2009, the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities were amended to reduce the existing first lien capacity under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities by $1.25 billion in exchange for the ability for TCEH to issue up to an additional $4 billion of secured notes or loans ranking junior to TCEH’s first lien obligations, provided that:

 

•

such notes or loans mature later than the latest maturity date of any of the initial term loans under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities, and

 

•

any net cash proceeds from any such issuances are used (i) in exchange for, or to refinance, repay, retire, refund or replace indebtedness of TCEH or (ii) to acquire, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all of the property and assets or business of another person or to finance the purchase price, cost of design, acquisition, construction, repair, restoration, replacement, expansion, installation or improvement of certain fixed or capital assets.

In addition, the amended facilities permit TCEH to, among other things:

 

•

issue new secured notes or loans, which may include, in each case, indebtedness secured on a pari passu basis with the obligations under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities, so long as, in each case, among other things, the net cash proceeds from any such issuance are used to prepay certain loans under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities at par;

 

•

upon making an offer to all lenders within a particular series, agree with lenders of that series to extend the maturity of their term loans or extend or refinance their revolving credit commitments under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities, and pay increased interest rates or otherwise modify the terms of their loans or revolving commitments in connection with such an extension, and

 

•

exclude from the financial maintenance covenant under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities any new debt issued that ranks junior to TCEH’s first lien obligations under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities.

Under the terms of the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities, the commitments of the lenders to make loans to TCEH are several and not joint. Accordingly, if any lender fails to make loans to TCEH, TCEH’s available liquidity could be reduced by an amount up to the aggregate amount of such lender’s commitments under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities.

The TCEH Senior Secured Facilities are unconditionally guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior secured basis by EFC Holdings, and subject to certain exceptions, each existing and future direct or indirect wholly-owned US restricted subsidiary of TCEH. The TCEH Senior Secured Facilities, including the guarantees thereof, certain commodity hedging transactions and the interest rate swaps described under “TCEH Interest Rate Swap Transactions” below are secured by (a) substantially all of the current and future assets of TCEH and TCEH’s subsidiaries who are guarantors of such facilities and (b) pledges of the capital stock of TCEH and certain current and future direct or indirect subsidiaries of TCEH.

The TCEH Initial Term Loan Facility is required to be repaid in equal quarterly installments in an aggregate annual amount equal to 1% of the original principal amount of such facility ($41 million quarterly), with the balance payable in October 2014. The TCEH Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility is required to be repaid in equal quarterly installments in an aggregate annual amount equal to 1% of the actual principal outstanding under such facility as of December 2009 ($10 million quarterly), with the balance payable in October 2014. Amounts borrowed under the TCEH Revolving Facility may be reborrowed from time to time until October 2013. The TCEH Letter of Credit Facility and TCEH Commodity Collateral Posting Facility will mature in October 2014 and December 2012, respectively.

Changes in the fair value of such swaps are being reported in the income statement in interest expense and related charges, and such unrealized mark-to-market value changes totaled $254 million and $361 million in net losses in the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and $460 million and $665 million in net gains in the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. The cumulative unrealized mark-to-market net liability related to the swaps totaled $1.574 billion at June 30, 2010, of which $140 million (pre-tax) was reported in accumulated other comprehensive income.

See Note 11 for discussion of collateral investments related to certain of these interest rate swaps that expired in March 2010.

 

7.	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Guarantees

We have entered into contracts that contain guarantees to unaffiliated parties that could require performance or payment under certain conditions. Material guarantees are discussed below.

Disposed TXU Gas operations — In connection with the sale of TXU Gas in October 2004, EFH Corp. agreed to indemnify Atmos Energy Corporation (Atmos), until October 1, 2014, for up to $500 million for any liability related to assets retained by TXU Gas, including certain inactive gas plant sites not acquired by Atmos, and up to $1.4 billion for contingent liabilities associated with preclosing tax and employee related matters. The maximum aggregate amount under these indemnities that we may be required to pay is $1.9 billion. To date, we have not been required to make any payments to Atmos under any of these indemnity obligations, and no such payments are currently anticipated.

Residual value guarantees in operating leases — We are the lessee under various operating leases that guarantee the residual values of the leased assets. At June 30, 2010, the aggregate maximum amount of residual values guaranteed was $13 million with an estimated residual recovery of $13 million. These leased assets consist primarily of rail cars. The average life of the residual value guarantees under the lease portfolio is approximately six years.

See Note 6 above and Note 12 to Financial Statements in the 2009 Form 10-K for discussion of guarantees and security for certain of our indebtedness.

Letters of Credit

At June 30, 2010, TCEH had outstanding letters of credit under its credit facilities totaling $706 million as follows:

 

•

$318 million to support risk management and trading margin requirements in the normal course of business, including over-the-counter hedging transactions;

 

•

$208 million to support floating rate pollution control revenue bond debt with an aggregate principal amount of $204 million (the letters of credit are available to fund the payment of such debt obligations and expire in 2014);

 

•

$84 million to support TCEH’s REP’s financial requirements with the PUCT, and

 

•

$96 million for miscellaneous credit support requirements.

Litigation Related to Generation Facilities

In September 2007, an administrative appeal challenging the order of the TCEQ issuing the air permit for construction and operation of the Oak Grove generation facility in Robertson County, Texas was filed in the State District Court of Travis County, Texas. Plaintiffs asked that the District Court reverse the TCEQ’s approval of the Oak Grove air permit and the TCEQ’s adoption and approval of the TCEQ Executive Director’s Response to Comments, and remand the matter back to TCEQ for further proceedings. In addition to this administrative appeal, two other petitions were filed in Travis County District Court by non-parties to the administrative hearing before the TCEQ and the State Office of Administrative Hearings (SOAH) seeking to challenge the TCEQ’s issuance of the Oak Grove air permit and asking the District Court to remand the matter to the SOAH for further proceedings. Finally, the plaintiffs in these two additional lawsuits filed a third, joint petition claiming insufficiencies in the Oak Grove application, permit, and process and seeking party status and remand to the SOAH for further proceedings. One of the plaintiffs asked the District Court to consolidate all these proceedings, and the Attorney General of Texas, on behalf of TCEQ, filed pleas to the jurisdiction seeking dismissal of all but the administrative appeal. In May 2009, the District Court dismissed the claims that contest the merits of the TCEQ’s permitting decision, but declined to dismiss the claims that contest the process by which the TCEQ handled the permit application. Oak Grove Management Company LLC (a subsidiary of TCEH) has subsequently intervened in these proceedings and has filed its own pleas to the jurisdiction asking the court to dismiss the remaining collateral attack claims. In October 2009, one of the plaintiffs ended its legal challenge to the permit. In December 2009, the Attorney General and Oak Grove Management Company LLC filed pleadings asking the court to dismiss the administrative appeal challenging the permit for want of prosecution by the plaintiffs. In January 2010, the court denied that request and set the case for a hearing on the merits in June 2010. In March 2010, the remaining two non-parties to the administrative hearing before the TCEQ and SOAH filed a notice of non-suit, thus ending their legal challenge. Therefore, only one plaintiff remains in the case. After conducting the hearing in June 2010, the court in July issued its order rejecting the remaining plaintiff’s claims and upholding the TCEQ’s issuance of the permit. We believe the Oak Grove air permit granted by the TCEQ was issued in accordance with applicable law. There can be no assurance that the outcome of these matters will not adversely impact the Oak Grove project.

In July 2008, Alcoa Inc. filed a lawsuit in the State District Court of Milam County, Texas against Luminant Generation and Luminant Mining (wholly-owned subsidiaries of TCEH), later adding EFH Corp., a number of its subsidiaries, Texas Holdings and Texas Holdings’ general partner as parties to the suit. The lawsuit made various claims concerning the operation of the Sandow Unit 4 generation facility and the related Three Oaks lignite mine, including claims for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, tortious interference, civil conspiracy and conversion. The plaintiff requested money damages of no less than $500 million, declaratory judgment, rescission and other forms of equitable relief. In May 2010, the trial court granted a summary judgment dismissing substantially all of Alcoa’s claims other than its breach of contract claims against Luminant Generation and Luminant Mining. On the breach of contract claims against Luminant Generation relating to the Sandow Unit 4 generation facility, a jury rendered a verdict in Luminant Generation’s favor in June 2010. The jury awarded no damages to Alcoa and awarded $10 million in damages to Luminant Generation. In June 2010, the judge presiding in the case ruled in Luminant Mining’s favor on the claims against it, awarding no damages to Alcoa and awarding nearly $2 million in damages to Luminant Mining. As a result, the lawsuit was concluded favorably to Luminant, subject to any appeals. We cannot predict whether Alcoa will file an appeal with respect to the jury’s verdict or the court’s ruling. If such appeals are filed, we intend to vigorously defend the appeals.

In February 2010, the Sierra Club informed Luminant that it may sue Luminant, after the expiration of a 60-day waiting period, for allegedly violating federal Clean Air Act provisions in connection with Luminant’s Big Brown generation facility. This notice is similar to the notice that Luminant received in July 2008 with respect to its Martin Lake generation facility. We cannot predict whether the Sierra Club will actually file suit or the outcome of any resulting proceedings.

Regulatory Investigations and Reviews

In June 2008, the EPA issued a request for information to TCEH under EPA’s authority under Section 114 of the Clean Air Act. The stated purpose of the request is to obtain information necessary to determine compliance with the Clean Air Act, including New Source Review Standards and air permits issued by the TCEQ for the Big Brown, Monticello and Martin Lake generation facilities. Historically, as the EPA has pursued its New Source Review enforcement initiative, companies that have received a large and broad request under Section 114, such as the request received by TCEH, have in many instances subsequently received a notice of violation from the EPA, which has in some cases progressed to litigation or settlement. The company is cooperating with the EPA and is responding in good faith to the EPA’s request, but is unable to predict the outcome of this matter.

Sandow Power Company LLC (Sandow Power), a subsidiary of TCEH, is a party to a federal consent decree (the Consent Decree) with, among others, the US Department of Justice (DOJ) and certain private plaintiffs related to Sandow Power’s Sandow Unit 5 lignite-fueled generation facility. Between December 3, 2009 and March 31, 2010, Sandow Power submitted several force majeure claims to the DOJ regarding deviations from emissions limits at Sandow Unit 5 resulting from force majeure events, as that term is defined in the Consent Decree. In June 2010, Sandow Power and the DOJ agreed to extend, to August 31, 2010, the DOJ’s deadline to respond to these force majeure claims. We anticipate that this extension period will be used to pursue a negotiated resolution of the force majeure claims. We believe that a negotiated resolution of the force majeure claims between Sandow Power, the DOJ and the private plaintiffs, if reached, would likely involve a payment that is immaterial to the company, but in excess of the $100,000 disclosure threshold applicable to such matters.

Other Proceedings

In addition to the above, we are involved in various other legal and administrative proceedings in the normal course of business, the ultimate resolution of which, in the opinion of management, should not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

EQUITY

Dividend Restrictions

The indentures governing the EFH Corp. Senior Notes and EFH Corp. Senior Secured Notes include covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, restrict our ability to pay dividends or make other distributions in respect of our capital stock. Accordingly, essentially all of our net income is restricted from being used to make distributions on our common stock unless such distributions are expressly permitted under these indentures and/or after such distributions, on a pro forma basis, after giving effect to such payment, EFH Corp.’s consolidated leverage ratio is equal to or less than 7.0 to 1.0. For purposes of this calculation, “consolidated leverage ratio” is defined as the ratio of consolidated total indebtedness (as defined in the indenture) to Adjusted EBITDA, in each case, consolidated with its subsidiaries other than Oncor Holdings and its subsidiaries. In addition, the indenture governing the EFIH 9.75% Notes generally restricts Intermediate Holding from making any cash distribution to EFH Corp. for the ultimate purpose of making a cash distribution on our common stock unless at the time, and after giving effect to such distribution, Intermediate Holding’s consolidated leverage ratio is equal to or less than 6.0 to 1.0. Under the indenture governing the EFIH 9.75% Notes, the term “consolidated leverage ratio” is defined as the ratio of Intermediate Holding’s consolidated total indebtedness (as defined in the indenture) to Intermediate Holding’s Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis.

The TCEH Senior Secured Facilities generally restrict TCEH from making any cash distribution to any of its parent companies for the ultimate purpose of making a cash distribution on our common stock unless at the time, and after giving effect to such distribution, its consolidated total debt (as defined in the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities) to Adjusted EBITDA would be equal to or less than 6.5 to 1.0. In addition, the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities and indenture governing the TCEH Senior Notes generally restrict TCEH’s ability to make distributions or loans to any of its parent companies, EFC Holdings and EFH Corp., unless such distributions or loans are expressly permitted under the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities and indenture governing the TCEH Senior Notes. Those agreements generally permit TCEH to make unlimited distributions or loans to its parent companies for corporate overhead costs, SG&A expenses, taxes and principal and interest payments. In addition, those agreements contain certain investment and dividend baskets that would allow TCEH to make additional distributions and/or loans to its parent companies up to the amount of such baskets. At June 30, 2010, EFH Corp. demand notes payable to TCEH totaled $1.631 billion, of which $668 million is related to principal and interest payments. Such principal and interest amounts are guaranteed by EFC Holdings and Intermediate Holding on a pari passu basis with their guarantees of the EFH Corp. Senior Notes; the remaining balance of the demand notes is not guaranteed.

In addition, under applicable law, we would be prohibited from paying any dividend to the extent that immediately following payment of such dividend, there would be no statutory surplus or we would be insolvent.

EFH Corp. did not declare or pay any cash dividends in 2010 or 2009.

Distributions from Oncor — Until December 31, 2012, distributions paid by Oncor to its members are limited to an amount not to exceed Oncor’s net income determined in accordance with GAAP, subject to certain defined adjustments. Distributions are further limited by an agreement that Oncor’s regulatory capital structure, as determined by the PUCT, will be at or below the assumed debt-to-equity ratio established periodically by the PUCT for ratemaking purposes, which is currently set at 60% debt to 40% equity.

Noncontrolling Interests

Of the noncontrolling interests balance at December 31, 2009 in the table below, $1.363 billion related to Oncor. See Note 1 for discussion of the deconsolidation of Oncor in 2010. As of December 31, 2009 (and June 30, 2010), Oncor’s ownership was as follows: 80.03% held indirectly by EFH Corp., 0.22% held indirectly by Oncor’s management and board of directors and 19.75% held by Texas Transmission.

In connection with the filing of a combined operating license application with the NRC for two new nuclear generation units, in January 2009, TCEH and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. (MHI) formed a joint venture, CPNPC, to further the development of the two new nuclear generation units using MHI’s US–Advanced Pressurized Water Reactor technology. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, a subsidiary of TCEH owns an 88% interest in the venture and a subsidiary of MHI owns a 12% interest. This joint venture is a variable interest entity, and a subsidiary of TCEH is considered the primary beneficiary (see Note 3).

9.	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Accounting standards related to the determination of fair value define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We use a “mid-market” valuation convention (the mid-point price between bid and ask prices) as a practical expedient to measure fair value for the majority of our assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurement on a recurring basis. We primarily use the market approach for recurring fair value measurements and use valuation techniques to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

We categorize our assets and liabilities recorded at fair value based upon the following fair value hierarchy:

 

•

Level 1 valuations use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date. An active market is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Our Level 1 assets and liabilities include exchange traded commodity contracts. For example, a significant number of our derivatives are NYMEX futures and swaps transacted through clearing brokers for which prices are actively quoted.

 

•

Level 2 valuations use inputs, in the absence of actively quoted market prices, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include: (a) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, (b) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, (c) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals and (d) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. Our Level 2 valuations utilize over-the-counter broker quotes, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities that are corroborated by correlations or other mathematical means and other valuation inputs. For example, our Level 2 assets and liabilities include forward commodity positions at locations for which over-the-counter broker quotes are available.

 

•

Level 3 valuations use unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are used to the extent observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. We use the most meaningful information available from the market combined with internally developed valuation methodologies to develop our best estimate of fair value. For example, our Level 3 assets and liabilities include certain derivatives whose values are derived from pricing models that utilize multiple inputs to the valuations, including inputs that are not observable or easily corroborated through other means.

We utilize several different valuation techniques to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities, relying primarily on the market approach of using prices and other market information for identical and/or comparable assets and liabilities for those items that are measured on a recurring basis. These methods include, among others, the use of broker quotes and statistical relationships between different price curves.

In utilizing broker quotes, we attempt to obtain multiple quotes from brokers that are active in the commodity markets in which we participate (and require at least one quote from two brokers to determine a pricing input as observable); however, not all pricing inputs are quoted by brokers. The number of broker quotes received for certain pricing inputs varies depending on the depth of the trading market, each individual broker’s publication policy, recent trading volume trends and various other factors. In addition, for valuation of interest rate swaps, we use a combination of dealer provided market valuations (generally non-binding) and Bloomberg valuations based on month-end interest rate curves and standard rate swap valuation models.

Table of Contents

Certain derivatives and financial instruments are valued utilizing option pricing models that take into consideration multiple inputs including commodity prices, volatility factors, discount rates and other inputs. Additionally, when there is not a sufficient amount of observable market data, valuation models are developed that incorporate proprietary views of market factors. Those valuation models are generally used in developing long-term forward price curves for certain commodities. We believe the development of such curves is consistent with industry practice; however, the fair value measurements resulting from such curves are classified as Level 3.

With respect to amounts presented in the following fair value hierarchy tables, the fair value measurement of an asset or liability (e.g., a contract) is required to fall in its entirety in one level, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Certain assets and liabilities would be classified in Level 2 instead of Level 3 of the hierarchy except for the effects of credit reserves and non-performance risk adjustments, respectively. Assessing the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, considering factors specific to the asset or liability being measured.

At June 30, 2010, assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis consisted of the following:

 

		Level 1			Level 2			Level 3 (a)			Reclassification (b)			Total
Assets:
Commodity contracts		$	992		$	3,447		$	425		$	17		$	4,881

(c)	The nuclear decommissioning trust investment is included in the other investments line on the balance sheet. See Note 16.

Commodity contracts consist primarily of natural gas, electricity, fuel oil and coal derivative instruments entered into for hedging purposes and include physical contracts that have not been designated “normal” purchases or sales. See Note 11 for further discussion regarding the company’s use of derivative instruments.

Interest rate swaps include variable-to-fixed rate swap instruments that are economic hedges of interest on long-term debt as well as interest rate basis swaps designed to effectively reduce the hedged borrowing costs. See Note 6 for discussion of interest rate swaps.

Nuclear decommissioning trust assets represent securities held for the purpose of funding the future retirement and decommissioning of the nuclear generation units. These investments include equity, debt and other fixed-income securities consistent with investment rules established by the NRC and the PUCT.

There were no significant transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.

11.	COMMODITY AND OTHER DERIVATIVE CONTRACTUAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Strategic Use of Derivatives

We enter into physical and financial derivative instruments, such as options, swaps, futures and forward contracts, primarily to manage commodity price risk and interest rate risk exposure. Our principal activities involving derivatives consist of a long-term commodity hedging program and the hedging of interest costs on our long-term debt. See Note 9 for a discussion of the fair value of all derivatives.

Long-Term Hedging Program — TCEH has a long-term hedging program designed to reduce exposure to changes in future electricity prices due to changes in the price of natural gas, thereby hedging future revenues from electricity sales and related cash flows. In ERCOT, the wholesale price of electricity is highly correlated to the price of natural gas. Under the program, TCEH has entered into market transactions involving natural gas-related financial instruments and has sold forward natural gas through 2014. These transactions are intended to hedge a majority of electricity price exposure related to expected baseload generation for this period. Changes in the fair value of the instruments under the long-term hedging program are reported in the income statement in net gain (loss) from commodity hedging and trading activities.

Interest Rate Swap Transactions — Interest rate swap agreements are used to reduce exposure to interest rate changes by converting floating-rate debt to fixed rates, thereby hedging future interest costs and related cash flows. Interest rate basis swaps are used to effectively reduce the hedged borrowing costs. Changes in the fair value of the swaps are recorded as unrealized gains and losses in interest expense and related charges. See Note 6 for additional information about these and other interest rate swap agreements.

Other Commodity Hedging and Trading Activity — In addition to the long-term hedging program, TCEH enters into derivatives, including electricity, natural gas, fuel oil and coal instruments, generally for shorter-term hedging purposes. To a limited extent, TCEH also enters into derivative transactions for proprietary trading purposes, principally in natural gas and electricity markets.

Financial Statement Effects of Derivatives

Substantially all commodity and other derivative contractual assets and liabilities arise from mark-to-market accounting consistent with accounting standards related to derivative instruments and hedging activities.

As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, there were no derivative positions accounted for as cash flow or fair value hedges.

Margin deposits that contractually offset these derivative instruments are reported separately in the balance sheet and totaled $367 million and $358 million in net liabilities at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, which do not include the collateral investments related to certain interest rate swaps and commodity positions discussed immediately below. Reported amounts as presented in the above table do not reflect netting of assets and liabilities with the same counterparties under existing netting arrangements. This presentation can result in significant volatility in derivative assets and liabilities because we may enter into offsetting positions with the same counterparties, resulting in both assets and liabilities, and the underlying commodity prices can change significantly from period to period.

In 2009, we entered into collateral funding transactions with counterparties to certain interest rate swap agreements related to TCEH debt. Under the terms of these transactions, which we elected to enter into as a cash management measure, as of December 31, 2009, EFH Corp. (parent) had posted $400 million in cash and TCEH had posted $65 million in letters of credit to the counterparties, with the outstanding balance of such collateral earning interest. TCEH had also entered into commodity hedging transactions with one of these counterparties, and under an arrangement effective August 2009, both the interest rate swaps and certain of the commodity hedging transactions with the counterparty are under the same derivative agreement, which continues to be secured by a first-lien interest in the assets of TCEH. In accordance with the agreements, the counterparties returned the collateral, along with accrued interest, on March 31, 2010. As of December 31, 2009, the cash collateral was recorded as an investment and was presented in the balance sheet (including accrued interest) as a separate line item under current assets.

The following table presents the pre-tax effect of derivatives not under hedge accounting on net income, including realized and unrealized effects:

There were no transactions designated as cash flow hedges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. There were no ineffectiveness net gains or losses related to transactions designated as cash flow hedges in the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.

Accumulated other comprehensive income related to cash flow hedges at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 totaled $92 million and $128 million in net losses (after-tax), respectively, substantially all of which relates to interest rate swaps. We expect that $35 million of net losses related to cash flow hedges included in accumulated other comprehensive income as of June 30, 2010 will be reclassified into net income during the next twelve months as the related hedged transactions affect net income.

Derivative Volumes

The following table presents the gross notional amounts of derivative volumes at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009:

 

		June 30, 2010			December 31, 2009
Derivative type		Notional Volume						Unit of Measure
Interest rate swaps:
Floating/fixed		$	18,000		$	18,000		Million US dollars
Basis		$	16,300		$	16,250		Million US dollars
Natural gas:

Electricity			178,873			198,230		GWh
Coal			5			6		Million tons
Fuel oil			130			161		Million gallons

 

(a)

Represents gross notional forward sales, purchases and options of fixed and basis (price point) transactions in the long-term hedging program. The net amount of these transactions, excluding basis transactions, was 1.4 billion MMBtu and 1.6 billion MMBtu as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features of Derivatives

The agreements that govern our derivative instrument transactions may contain certain credit risk-related contingent features that could trigger liquidity requirements in the form of cash collateral, letters of credit or some other form of credit enhancement. Certain of those agreements require the posting of collateral if our credit rating is downgraded by one or more of the credit rating agencies; however, due to our below investment grade credit ratings, substantially all of such collateral posting requirements are already effective.

As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the fair value of liabilities related to derivative instruments under agreements with credit risk-related contingent features that were not fully cash collateralized totaled $619 million and $687 million, respectively. The liquidity exposure associated with these liabilities was reduced by cash and letter of credit postings with the counterparties totaling $109 million and $152 million as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. If all the credit risk-related contingent features related to these derivatives had been triggered, including cross default provisions, as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the remaining related liquidity requirement would have totaled $23 million and $20 million, respectively, after reduction for net accounts receivable and derivative assets under netting arrangements.

In addition, certain derivative agreements that are collateralized primarily with asset liens include indebtedness cross-default provisions that could result in the settlement of such contracts if there were a failure under other financing arrangements to meet payment terms or to comply with other covenants that could result in the acceleration of such indebtedness. As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the fair value of derivative liabilities subject to such cross-default provisions, largely related to interest rate swaps, totaled $2.032 billion and $1.482 billion, respectively, (before consideration of the amount of assets under the liens). There were no cash collateral and letters of credit posted with these counterparties to reduce the liquidity exposure as of June 30, 2010. The liquidity exposure associated with these liabilities was reduced by cash collateral and letters of credit posted with counterparties totaling $489 million as of December 31, 2009. If all the credit risk-related contingent features related to these derivatives, including amounts related to cross-default provisions, had been triggered as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the remaining related liquidity requirement would have totaled $1.102 billion and $480 million, respectively, after reduction for derivative assets under netting arrangements (before consideration of the amount of assets under the liens). See Note 12 to Financial Statements in the 2009 Form 10-K for a description of other obligations that are supported by asset liens.

Table of Contents

As discussed immediately above, the aggregate fair values of liabilities under derivative agreements with credit risk-related contingent features, including cross-default provisions, totaled $2.651 billion and $2.169 billion at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. This amount is before consideration of cash and letter of credit collateral posted, net accounts receivable and derivative assets under netting arrangements and assets under related liens.

Some commodity derivative contracts contain credit risk-related contingent features that do not provide for specific amounts to be posted if the features are triggered. These provisions include material adverse change, performance assurance, and other clauses that generally provide counterparties with the right to request additional credit enhancements. The amounts disclosed above exclude credit risk-related contingent features that do not provide for specific amounts or exposure calculations.

Concentrations of Credit Risk Related to Derivatives

TCEH has significant concentrations of credit risk with the counterparties to its derivative contracts. As of June 30, 2010, total credit risk exposure to all counterparties related to derivative contracts totaled $5.1 billion (including associated accounts receivable). The net exposure to those counterparties totaled $1.9 billion after taking into effect master netting arrangements, setoff provisions and collateral. The net exposure, assuming setoff provisions in the event of default across all EFH Corp. consolidated subsidiaries, totaled $1.4 billion as of June 30, 2010. As of June 30, 2010, the credit risk exposure to the banking and financial sector represented 93% of the total credit risk exposure, a significant amount of which is related to the long-term hedging program. As of June 30, 2010, the largest net exposure to a single counterparty totaled approximately $750 million. Exposure to the banking and financial sector counterparties is considered to be within an acceptable level of risk tolerance because substantially all of this exposure is with counterparties with credit ratings of “A” or better. However, this concentration increases the risk that a default by any of these counterparties would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

The transactions with these counterparties contain certain provisions that would require the counterparties to post collateral in the event of a material downgrade in their credit rating. We maintain credit risk policies with regard to our counterparties to minimize overall credit risk. These policies specify authorized risk mitigation tools including, but not limited to, use of standardized master netting contracts and agreements that allow for netting of positive and negative exposures associated with a single counterparty. Credit enhancements such as parent guarantees, letters of credit, surety bonds, liens on assets and margin deposits are also utilized. Prospective material adverse changes in the payment history or financial condition of a counterparty or downgrade of its credit quality result in the reassessment of the credit limit with that counterparty. The process can result in the subsequent reduction of the credit limit or a request for additional financial assurances. An event of default by one or more counterparties could subsequently result in termination-related settlement payments that reduce available liquidity if amounts are owed to the counterparties related to the derivative contracts or delays in receipts of expected settlements if the counterparties owe amounts to us.

The discount rate reflected in net pension and OPEB costs in 2010 is 5.90%. The expected rates of return on pension and OPEB plan assets reflected in the 2010 cost amounts are 8.0% and 7.6%, respectively.

We made cash contributions related to our pension and OPEB plans totaling $14 million and $12 million, respectively, in the first half of 2010, including $22 million contributed by Oncor. We expect to make additional contributions of $31 million and $12 million, respectively, in the remainder of 2010, including $37 million expected to be contributed by Oncor.

13.	EFFECT OF HEALTH CARE LEGISLATION

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act enacted in March 2010 reduces, effective in 2013, the amount of OPEB costs deductible for federal income tax purposes by the amount of the Medicare Part D subsidy we receive. Under income tax accounting rules, deferred tax assets related to accrued OPEB liabilities must be reduced immediately for the future effect of the legislation. Accordingly, in the three months ended March 31, 2010, EFH Corp.’s and Oncor’s deferred tax assets were reduced by $50 million. Of this amount, $8 million was recorded as a charge to income tax expense and $42 million was recorded as a regulatory asset by Oncor (before gross-up for liability in lieu of deferred income taxes) as the additional income taxes are expected to be recoverable in Oncor’s future rates.

 

14.	RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The following represent the significant related-party transactions of EFH Corp.:

 

•

We incur an annual management fee under the terms of a management agreement with the Sponsor Group for which we accrued $9 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, and $18 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. The fee is reported as SG&A expense.

 

•

In 2007, TCEH entered into the TCEH Senior Secured Facilities with syndicates of financial institutions and other lenders. These syndicates included affiliates of GS Capital Partners, which is a member of the Sponsor Group. Affiliates of GS Capital Partners and Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. (a member of the Sponsor Group) have from time to time engaged in commercial banking and financial advisory transactions with us in the normal course of business.

 

•

Goldman, Sachs & Co. (Goldman) acted as an initial purchaser in the issuance of $500 million principal amount of EFH Corp. 10% Notes in January 2010 as discussed in Note 6. Goldman received fees totaling $3 million for this transaction. Goldman is also acting as a dealer manager and solicitation agent in the ongoing debt exchange offers launched in July 2010 as discussed in Note 6. For its services in connection with the exchange offers and related consent solicitation, we have agreed to pay Goldman an exchange agent fee of up to $5.5 million and an incentive fee of up to $3 million that will be determined at the end of the exchange offers depending on the results of the exchange.

 

•

Affiliates of Goldman Sachs & Co. are parties to certain commodity and interest rate hedging transactions with us in the normal course of business.

 

•

Affiliates of the Sponsor Group may sell or acquire debt or debt securities issued by us in open market transactions or through loan syndications.

 

•

TCEH’s retail operations incur electricity delivery fees charged by Oncor, which totaled $257 million and $521 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. The fees are based on rates regulated by the PUCT that apply to all REPs. The balance sheet at June 30, 2010 reflects amounts due currently to Oncor of $177 million (included in net payables due to unconsolidated subsidiary), primarily related to these electricity delivery fees.

 

•

Oncor’s bankruptcy-remote financing subsidiary has issued securitization bonds to recover generation-related regulatory assets through a transition surcharge to its customers. Oncor’s incremental income taxes related to the transition surcharges it collects are being reimbursed by TCEH. Therefore, the balance sheet reflects a noninterest bearing note payable to Oncor of $237 million ($38 million current portion included in net payables due to unconsolidated subsidiary) at June 30, 2010.

•

TCEH reimburses Oncor for interest expense on Oncor’s bankruptcy-remote financing subsidiary’s securitization bonds. This interest expense totaled $9 million and $19 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.

 

•

A subsidiary of EFH Corp. charges Oncor for financial and other administrative services at cost, which totaled $10 million and $17 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.

 

•

Under Texas regulatory provisions, the trust fund for decommissioning the Comanche Peak nuclear generation facility, reported in other investments on the balance sheet, is funded by a delivery fee surcharge billed to REPs by Oncor and remitted to TCEH, with the intent that the trust fund assets will be sufficient to fund the decommissioning liability, reported in noncurrent liabilities on the balance sheet. Income and expenses associated with the trust fund and the decommissioning liability incurred by us are offset by a net change in the intercompany receivable/payable with Oncor, which in turn results in a change in Oncor’s net regulatory asset/liability. At June 30, 2010, the excess of the trust fund balance over the decommissioning liability resulted in a payable to Oncor totaling $148 million included in noncurrent payables to unconsolidated subsidiary in the balance sheet.

The intercompany receivable/payable with Oncor has changed from a receivable of $85 million on January 1, 2010 to a payable of $148 million on June 30, 2010 due to a new decommissioning cost estimate completed in the second quarter 2010 that resulted in a decline of the liability. The new cost estimate was completed in accordance with regulatory requirements to perform a cost estimate every five years. The lower estimated liability was driven by lower cost escalation assumptions in the new estimate. (Also see Note 16 under “Asset Retirement Obligations.”)

 

•

We file a consolidated federal income tax return; however, Oncor Holdings’ federal income tax and Texas margin tax expense and related balance sheet amounts, including income taxes payable to or receivable from EFH Corp., are recorded as if Oncor Holdings files its own income tax return. At June 30, 2010, the amount due to Oncor Holdings totaled $3 million and is included in net payables due to unconsolidated subsidiary.

 

•

Certain transmission and distribution utilities in Texas have tariffs in place to assure adequate credit worthiness of any REP to support the REP’s obligation to collect securitization bond-related (transition) charges on behalf of the utility. Under these tariffs, as a result of TCEH’s credit rating being below investment grade, TCEH is required to post collateral support in an amount equal to estimated transition charges over specified time periods. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2010, TCEH had posted a letter of credit in the amount of $16 million for the benefit of Oncor.

 

•

EFH Corp. and Oncor are jointly and severally liable for the funding of the EFH Corp. pension plan and a portion of the OPEB plan obligations. EFH Corp. is liable for the majority of the OPEB plan obligations. Oncor has contractually agreed to reimburse EFH Corp. with respect to certain pension plan and OPEB liabilities. Accordingly, at June 30, 2010, the balance sheet of EFH Corp. reflects such unfunded liabilities and a corresponding receivable from Oncor in the amount of $1.270 billion, classified as noncurrent, which represents the portion of the obligations recoverable by Oncor under regulatory rate-setting provisions and reported by Oncor in its balance sheet.

 

•

Oncor and Texas Holdings agreed to the terms of a stipulation with major interested parties to resolve all outstanding issues in the PUCT review related to the Merger. As part of this stipulation, TCEH would be required to post a letter of credit in an amount equal to $170 million to secure its payment obligations to Oncor if two or more rating agencies downgrade Oncor’s credit ratings below investment grade.

15.	SEGMENT INFORMATION

Our operations are aligned into two reportable business segments: Competitive Electric and Regulated Delivery. The segments are managed separately because they are strategic business units that offer different products or services and involve different risks.

The Competitive Electric segment is engaged in competitive market activities consisting of electricity generation, wholesale energy sales and purchases, commodity risk management and trading activities, and retail electricity sales to residential and business customers, all largely in Texas. These activities are conducted by TCEH.

The Regulated Delivery segment is engaged in regulated electricity transmission and distribution operations in Texas. These activities are conducted by Oncor, including its wholly owned bankruptcy-remote financing subsidiary. See Notes 1 and 3 for discussion of the deconsolidation of Oncor Holdings and, accordingly, the Regulated Delivery segment, effective as of January 1, 2010.

Corporate and Other represents the remaining nonsegment operations consisting primarily of discontinued operations, general corporate expenses and interest on EFH Corp. (parent entity), Intermediate Holding and EFC Holdings debt.

The accounting policies of the business segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 1 above and in Note 1 in the 2009 Form 10-K. We evaluate performance based on income from continuing operations. We account for intersegment sales and transfers as if the sales or transfers were to third parties, that is, at current market prices.

Nuclear Decommissioning Trust — Investments in a trust that will be used to fund the costs to decommission the Comanche Peak nuclear generation plant are carried at fair value. Decommissioning costs are being recovered from Oncor’s customers as a delivery fee surcharge over the life of the plant and deposited in the trust fund. Net gains and losses on investments in the trust fund are offset by a corresponding adjustment to Oncor’s regulatory asset/liability. A summary of investments in the fund follows:

The investment objective for debt securities is to invest in a diversified tax efficient portfolio with an overall portfolio rating of AA or above as graded by S&P or Aa2 by Moody’s. The debt securities are heavily weighted with municipal bonds. The debt securities had an average coupon rate of 4.41% and 4.44% and an average maturity of 7.9 years and 7.8 years at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

(c)	The investment objective for equity securities is to invest tax efficiently and to match the performance of the S&P 500 Index.

Debt securities held at June 30, 2010 mature as follows: $81 million in one to five years, $37 million in five to ten years and $104 million after ten years.

Property, Plant and Equipment

As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, property, plant and equipment of $20.8 billion and $30.1 billion, respectively, is stated net of accumulated depreciation and amortization of $3.5 billion and $7.1 billion, respectively.

Asset Retirement Obligations

These liabilities primarily relate to nuclear generation plant decommissioning, land reclamation related to lignite mining, removal of lignite/coal-fueled plant ash treatment facilities and generation plant asbestos removal and disposal costs. There is no earnings impact with respect to the recognition of the asset retirement costs for nuclear decommissioning, as all costs are recoverable through the regulatory process as part of Oncor’s rates.

The following table summarizes the changes to the asset retirement liability, reported in other current liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities and deferred credits in the balance sheet, during the six months ended June 30, 2010:

 

Asset retirement liability at January 1, 2010		$	948
Additions:
Accretion			36
Reductions:
Payments, essentially all mining reclamation			(20	)
Adjustment for new cost estimate (a)			(498	)
Asset retirement liability at June 30, 2010			466
Less amounts due currently			(42	)
Noncurrent asset retirement liability at June 30, 2010		$	424

 

(a)

Essentially all of the adjustment relates to the nuclear decommissioning liability, which resulted from a new cost estimate completed in the second quarter 2010. In accordance with regulatory requirements, a new cost estimate is completed every five years. A decline in the liability was driven by lower cost escalation assumptions in the new estimate. The reduction in the liability was offset in part by a reduction in the carrying value of the nuclear facility with the balance offset by an increase in the noncurrent liability to Oncor, which in turn resulted in a regulatory liability on Oncor’s balance sheet. (Also see Note 14.)

No recent events have occurred that would cause us to materially adjust the total amount of liabilities recorded related to uncertain tax positions, although the amount could change materially within the next 12 months if sufficient progress is made on matters in appeals with the IRS (see Note 8 to Financial Statements in the 2009 Form 10-K).

Unfavorable Purchase and Sales Contracts — The amortization of unfavorable purchase and sales contracts totaled $6 million and $7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively and $13 and $14 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Favorable purchase and sales contracts are recorded as intangible assets (see Note 4).

17.	SUPPLEMENTAL GUARANTOR CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

In 2007, EFH Corp. issued $2.0 billion EFH Corp. 10.875% Notes and $2.5 billion EFH Corp. Toggle Notes (collectively, the EFH Corp. Senior Notes). In May 2009, November 2009 and May 2010, EFH Corp. issued an additional $150 million, $159 million and $162 million, respectively, of the EFH Corp. Toggle Notes in payment of accrued interest. In November 2009, EFH Corp. issued $115 million EFH Corp. 9.75% Notes in exchange for certain outstanding debt securities. In January 2010, EFH Corp. issued $500 million EFH Corp. 10% Notes (collectively with the EFH Corp. 9.75% Notes, the EFH Corp. Senior Secured Notes). In the first half of 2010, EFH Corp. issued an additional $106 million of the EFH Corp. 10% Notes in exchange for certain outstanding debt securities. The EFH Corp. Senior Notes and EFH Corp. Senior Secured Notes are unconditionally guaranteed by EFC Holdings and Intermediate Holding, 100% owned subsidiaries of EFH Corp. (collectively, the Guarantors) on an unsecured basis except for Intermediate Holding’s guarantee of the EFH Corp. Senior Secured Notes, which is secured by a pledge of all membership interests and other investments Intermediate Holding owns or holds in Oncor Holdings or any of Oncor Holdings’ subsidiaries as described in Note 6. The guarantees issued by the Guarantors are full and unconditional, joint and several guarantees of the EFH Corp. Senior Notes and Senior Secured Notes. The guarantees by EFC Holdings and the guarantee of the EFH Corp. Senior Notes by Intermediate Holding rank equally with any senior unsecured indebtedness of the Guarantors and rank effectively junior to all of the secured indebtedness of the Guarantors to the extent of the assets securing that indebtedness. All other subsidiaries of EFH Corp., either direct or indirect, do not guarantee the EFH Corp. Senior Notes and EFH Corp. Senior Secured Notes (collectively, the Non-Guarantors). The indentures governing the EFH Corp. Senior Notes and EFH Corp. Senior Secured Notes contain certain restrictions, subject to certain exceptions, on EFH Corp.’s ability to pay dividends or make investments. See Note 8.

The following tables have been prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X Rule 3-10, “Financial Statements of Guarantors and Issuers of Guaranteed Securities Registered or Being Registered” in order to present the condensed consolidating statements of income of EFH Corp. (the Parent/Issuer), the Guarantors and the Non-Guarantors for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the condensed consolidating statements of cash flows of the Parent/Issuer, the Guarantors and the Non-Guarantors for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 and the consolidating balance sheets as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 of the Parent/Issuer, the Guarantors and the Non-Guarantors. Investments in consolidated subsidiaries are accounted for under the equity method. The presentations reflect the application of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5-J, “Push Down Basis of Accounting Required in Certain Limited Circumstances,” including the effects of the push down of the $4.57 billion and $4.63 billion principal amount of EFH Corp. Senior Notes and $299 million and $115 million principal amount of the EFH Corp. Senior Secured Notes to the Guarantors as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively (see Note 6). Amounts pushed down reflect Merger-related debt and additional debt guaranteed by the Guarantors that was issued by EFH Corp. to refinance Merger-related or other debt existing at the time of the Merger.

EFH Corp. (Parent) received dividends from its subsidiaries totaling $2 million and $58 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
