Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits

	(d)	Exhibits

		99.1 -	Press Release dated December 20, 2012 of Louisville Gas and Electric Company and Kentucky Utilities Company.
Statements in this report and the accompanying press release, including statements with respect to future events and their timing, including the Companies’ future rates, rate mechanisms or returns on equity and their ultimate operation or achievement, as well as other statements as to future costs or expenses, regulation, corporate strategy and performance, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Although the Companies believe that the expectations and assumptions reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, these expectations, assumptions and statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the statements. The following are among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements: subsequent phases of rate relief and regulatory cost recovery; market demand and prices for electricity; political, regulatory or economic conditions in states, regions or countries where the Companies conduct business; and the progress of actual construction, purchase or repair of assets subject to tracker mechanisms. Any such forward-looking statements should be considered in light of such important factors and in conjunction with PPL Corporation’s, LG&E and KU Energy LLC’s and the Companies’ Form 10-K and other reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
