On ~~November~~June 116, ~~2007~~2008, ~~Energy~~the ~~East~~Administrative ~~Corporation~~Law Judge (ALJ) assigned to the Iberdrola merger approval proceeding in New York issued ahis ~~news~~non-binding ~~release~~recommended ~~concerning~~decision. ~~its~~The ~~financial~~ALJ ~~results~~recommended ~~for~~that the ~~quarter~~New ~~and~~York 12Public ~~months~~Service ~~ended~~Commission ~~September~~(NYPSC) ~~30,~~"disapprove ~~2007~~the transaction on the ground that it does not satisfy the 'public interest' requirement of Public Service Law Section 70." In the alternative, if the NYPSC should approve the transaction, the ALJ recommended several conditions that should be imposed including that:

~~The~~Iberdrola ~~news~~and ~~release~~its isaffiliates ~~attached~~be asprohibited ~~Exhibit~~from ~~99-1~~owning toor ~~this~~operating ~~document~~electric ~~and~~generating isplants ~~being~~(whether ~~furnished~~wind, ~~pursuant~~fossil toor ~~Item~~hydropower) ~~2.02,~~that ~~Results~~are interconnected with the transmission or distribution systems of ~~Operations~~New ~~and~~York ~~Financial~~State ~~Condition~~Electric & Gas (NYSEG) or Rochester Gas and ~~Item~~Electric 7(RG&E).01 The ALJ further recommended that Energy East, ~~Regulation~~including FDNYSEG ~~Disclosure~~and RG&E, be required to divest all of ~~Form~~its ~~8-K~~existing generation in New York.

~~Item~~Iberdrola ~~9.01~~and ~~Financial~~its ~~Statements~~affiliates be subject to most of the financial and ~~Exhibits~~structural safeguards proposed by the NYPSC Staff and other parties in the proceeding, including credit quality protections, dividend limitations, ring fencing provisions, financial reporting requirements, and affiliate transactions and code of conduct.

NYSEG and RG&E customers be credited with "positive benefit adjustments" (dPBAs) ~~Exhibits~~of $646 million, which includes the $202 million previously proposed by petitioners as part of their partial acceptance of some of the terms and conditions requested by NYPSC Staff and others (the $202 million would provide an immediate average delivery rate reduction of $55 million or 4.4%.)

99After the conclusion of this case, an 11-1month general rate proceeding for NYSEG and RG&E be commenced to consider NYSEG's and RG&E's overall electric and natural gas revenue requirements and related matters, such as the implementation of the remaining $444 million of PBAs, retail access measures, and revenue decoupling mechanisms.

This discussion is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full report of the ALJ's recommended decision, which is available at:

http://www.dps.state.ny.us/whatsnew.html

The ALJ's recommended decision is not binding to the NYPSC. Briefs on Exceptions to the recommended decision are due June 26, 2008 and Briefs Opposing Exceptions are due July 3, 2008, after which the matter will be submitted to the NYPSC for its decision. Energy East is unable to predict either the outcome of this proceeding or the timing of a NYPSC decision.

In light of the current schedule in this proceeding, on June 19, 2008, pursuant to Section 6.1(b)(ii) of the merger agreement, Energy East submitted to Iberdrola a notice extending the date by which the obligation to close the merger ceases to be binding.
