FirstEnergy Corp. and Subsidiaries Credit Facility.

On June 14, 2005, FirstEnergy Corp. (FirstEnergy), Ohio Edison Company (OE), Pennsylvania Power Company (Penn), The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company (CEI), The Toledo Edison Company (TE), Jersey Central Power & Light Company (JCP&L), Metropolitan Edison Company (Met-Ed), Pennsylvania Electric Company (Penelec), FirstEnergy Solutions Corp. (FES) and American Transmission Systems, Incorporated (ATSI), as Borrowers, entered into a new $2 billion syndicated credit facility (New Facility), with the banks named therein, Citicorp USA, Inc., as Administrative Agent, Citicorp USA, Inc. and Barclays Bank plc, as initial Fronting Banks, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Barclays Capital, as Joint Lead Arrangers, Barclays Bank plc, as Syndication Agent, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Key Bank, National Association, and Wachovia Bank, N.A., as Co-Documentation Agents. The New Facility replaces FirstEnergy’s $375 million three-year credit agreement dated as of October 23, 2003, FirstEnergy’s $1 billion three-year credit agreement dated as of June 22, 2004 and OE’s $125 million three-year credit agreement dated as of October 23, 2003, which have been terminated, as well as OE’s recently-expired $250 million two-year credit agreement dated as of May 12, 2003.

The Borrowers may, at any time prior to the commitment termination date, as the same may be extended, request an increase in the total commitments available under the New Facility to a maximum of $2.5 billion. Commitments under the New Facility will be available until June 14, 2010, unless the lenders agree, at the request of the Borrowers, to an extension in whole or in part for an additional year.

Borrowings under the New Facility are available to each Borrower separately and will mature on the earlier of 364 days from the date of borrowing and the commitment termination date, as the same may be extended. Proceeds may be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes of the Borrowers.

The following table describes the Borrowing sub-limits for each Borrower under the New Facility, as well as the limitations on short-term indebtedness applicable to each Borrower under current regulatory approvals and applicable statutory and/or charter limitations.

_____________________

¹ As of March 31, 2005.

² Excluding amounts which may be borrowed under the Utility Money Pool.

³Borrowing sublimits for FES and ATSI may be increased to up to $250 million and $100 million, respectively, by

delivering notice to the Administrative Agent that either (i) such Borrower has senior unsecured debt ratings of at

least BBB- by Standard & Poors and Baa3 by Moody’s or (ii) FirstEnergy has guaranteed the obligations of such

Borrower under the New Facility.

Borrowings under the New Facility may take the form of Alternate Base Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances borrowed pro rata from all lenders in proportion to their commitments. Borrowings may also be made from time to time on a same-day basis directly from one or more swing line lenders in an aggregate amount not to exceed $100 million for periods of up to ten business days.

Outstanding alternate base rate advances will bear interest at a fluctuating rate equal to the higher of (a) Citibank N.A.’s åbase rateæ and (b) 1/2 of 1% per annum plus the Federal Funds rate in effect from time to time. Outstanding Eurodollar rate advances will bear interest at a rate equal to the London interbank offered rate (LIBOR) for interest periods of one, two or three weeks or one, two, three or six months plus an applicable margin determined by reference to the applicable Borrower’s then-current senior unsecured debt ratings (or in the case of FES or ATSI, where FirstEnergy has delivered a guaranty for such Borrower, FirstEnergy’s ratings). The applicable margin is currently 0.425% for OE, Penn, JCP&L, Met-Ed and Penelec and 0.575% for FirstEnergy, CEI and TE. So long as FirstEnergy provides its guaranty of the obligations of FES or ATSI, such Borrower will have an applicable margin equal to FirstEnergy. Changes in reference credit ratings of a Borrower would lower or raise its applicable margin depending on whether ratings improved or were lowered.

Swing line loans may bear interest at an alternate base rate or a Eurodollar rate as determined above or at a cost of funds rate determined by the applicable swing line lender in its sole discretion with reference to its funding sources on the date of the advance term equal to the interest period for such advance plus the applicable margin for a corresponding Eurodollar rate swing line advance.

If at any time the total amount of outstanding credits is greater than one-half of the aggregate amount of commitments under the New Facility, the above alternate base and Eurodollar rates for each Borrower will be increased by a utilization fee of 0.100% if such Borrower’s senior unsecured debt ratings are BBB- by Standard & Poors or Baa3 by Moody’s or higher. If such Borrower’s rating is lower, then the applicable utilization fee will be 0.125%.

Under the terms of the New Facility, FirstEnergy has agreed to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each lender a facility fee on the amount of such lender’s commitment (whether used or unused) on a quarterly basis. The facility fee rate is determined by FirstEnergy’s senior unsecured debt ratings and is currently 0.175%.

In addition, Borrowers may request from time to time the issuance of letters of credit expiring up to one year from the date of issuance. The stated amount of outstanding letters of credit will count against total commitments available under the New Facility and against the applicable Borrower’s borrowing sub-limit. Currently, the initial Fronting Banks have each agreed to issue up to $500 million of letters of credit, which amount may be reduced pro rata to the extent that additional Fronting Banks agree to issue letters of credit in an aggregate amount in excess of $1.0 billion under the New Facility. Additional Fronting Banks have currently agreed to issue up to $1 billion of letters of credit, resulting in total letter of credit commitments of $2 billion.

Each Borrower has agreed to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each lender a fee in an amount equal to the then applicable margin for Eurodollar Rate Advances multiplied by the stated amount of each letter of credit issued by such Fronting Bank for the account of such Borrower, in each case for the number of days that such letter of credit is issued but undrawn, payable quarterly.

Borrowings under the New Facility are available upon customary representations and warranties, terms and conditions for facilities of this type, including a requirement that the Borrower represent that no material adverse change has occurred at the time of the initial advance, swingline loan, or letter of credit issuance in the business, condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations or prospects of such Borrower and its consolidated subsidiaries.

At any time after the initial advance or letter of credit issuance under the New Facility, no Borrower is required to represent as a condition to any extension of credit that no material adverse change has occurred or that no litigation that has a reasonable possibility of having a material adverse effect is pending or threatened.

The Borrowers are subject to certain affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on the ability to sell, lease, transfer or dispose of assets, to grant or permit liens upon properties to secure debt, to merge or consolidate, to enter into any åprohibited transactionæ as defined in ERISA or to use the proceeds of any borrowing for prohibited purposes.

The New Facility contains financial covenants, such that each Borrower shall maintain a consolidated debt to total capitalization ratio, as defined in the New Facility, of no more than 0.65 to 1.00. FES and ATSI only need to comply with the consolidated debt to total capitalization ratio in the event they have outstanding extensions of credit without a FirstEnergy Guaranty in effect. In addition, unless and until FirstEnergy obtains senior unsecured debt ratings of BBB- by Standard & Poors or Baa2 by Moody’s, FirstEnergy will maintain a fixed charge ratio, as defined in the New Facility, of at least 2.00 to 1.00. FirstEnergy’s current senior unsecured debt ratings are BB+ by Standard & Poors and Baa3 by Moody’s.

Borrowings under the New Facility are subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of events of default that each Borrower considers usual and customary.

FirstEnergy and certain of the other Borrowers and their affiliates maintain ordinary banking and investment banking relationships with lenders under the New Facility.

The New Facility is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the New Facility.
