AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO APPLICATION/DECLARATION
ON FORM U-1 UNDER THE
PUBLIC UTILITY HOLDING COMPANY ACT OF 1935
On September 10, 2004, Portland General Electric Company ("Portland
General") filed an Application/Declaration on Form U-1 under File No. 070-10250
("Application") in connection with the acquisition of the coal handling facility
located at Portland General's Boardman Coal Plant in eastern Oregon. This
Amendment No. 1 to the Application amends and restates the Application.
Item 1. Description of Proposed Transaction.
A. Introduction
In this Application, Portland General Electric Company ("Portland
General"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Enron Corp. ("Enron"), a registered
public utility holding company under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of
1935, as amended (the "Act"), requests authority under Sections 9(a)(1) and 10
of the Act in connection with the acquisition of the coal handling facility
located at its Boardman Coal Plant ("Boardman Plant") in eastern Oregon. The
proposed transaction, more fully described below, is referred hereto as the
"Purchase."
B. Description of the Parties
1. Portland General Electric Company
Portland General, a corporation organized under the laws of Oregon, is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Enron, a registered public utility holding company
under the Act. Portland General, incorporated in 1930, is a single integrated
electric utility engaged in the generation, purchase, transmission,
distribution, and retail sale of electricity in the State of Oregon. Portland
General also sells electricity and natural gas in the wholesale market to
utilities and power marketers located throughout the western United States.
Portland General's service area is located entirely within Oregon and includes
51 incorporated cities, of which Portland and Salem are the largest, within a
state-approved service area allocation of approximately 4,000 square miles.
Portland General estimates that at the end of 2003 its service area population
was approximately 1.5 million, comprising about 43% of the state's population.
At December 31, 2003, Portland General served approximately 754,000 retail
customers. Portland General has approximately 26,085 miles of electric
transmission and distribution lines and owns 1,957 MW of generating capacity.
Portland General also has long-term power purchase contracts for 510 MW from
four hydroelectric projects on the mid-Columbia River and power purchase
contracts of one to twenty-six years for another 740 MW from Bonneville Power
Administration, other Pacific Northwest utilities, and certain Native American
tribes. As of December 31, 2003, Portland General's total firm resource
capacity, including short-term purchase agreements, was approximately 3,883 MW
(net of short-term sales agreements of 3,910 MW). Portland General's peak load
in 2003 was 3,351 MW.
3
On July 2, 1997, Portland General Corporation, the former parent of
Portland General, merged with Enron, with Enron continuing in existence as the
surviving corporation, and Portland General becoming a wholly owned subsidiary
of Enron. Portland General is not a Debtor in the Bankruptcy cases involving
Enron. On July 29, 2004, Enron filed an application under Section 12(d) of the
Act (SEC File No. 070-10239) seeking authorization to sell Portland General to
Oregon Electric Utility Company, LLC. This application is pending.
Portland General is a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 and it files annual, quarterly and periodic reports with the Commission.
Portland General is regulated by the Oregon Public Utility Commission ("OPUC")
with regard to its rates, terms of service, financings, affiliate transactions
and other aspects of its business. The company is also regulated by the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") with respect to its activities in the
interstate wholesale power markets.
As of and for the year ended December 31, 2003, Portland General and its
subsidiaries on a consolidated basis had operating revenues of $1,752 million,
net income of $58 million, retained earnings of $545 million, and assets of
$3,372 million.
The Boardman Plant is a coal fueled plant located in Boardman, Oregon with
capacity of 600 MW. Portland General owns a 65% undivided interest in the
Boardman Plant and is the operator of the plant. The remaining 35% is owned by
Idaho Power Company, Pacific Northwest Generating Cooperative, and General
Electric Credit Corporation through Bank of New York (the successor to J Henry
Schroeder Bank & Trust Company) (collectively, "Boardman Plant Co-Owners"), who
are unaffiliated with Portland General.
C. Description of the Transaction
Portland General seeks Commission authorization under Sections 9(a)(1) and
10 of the Act to acquire the coal handling facility located at the Boardman
Plant ("Facility"). The Facility consists of the machinery, equipment,
mechanical and electrical equipment, fixtures, tangible personal property and
other property, real and personal, constructed and installed for the unloading,
transfer, storage, handling and crushing of coal for the Boardman Plant.
Portland General is the sole lessee of the Facility under a Lease Agreement
entered into pursuant to a leverage financing transaction ("Financing
Transaction") entered into in 1979. The Facility is owned by Wells Fargo Bank
N.A. (the successor to First National Bank of Oregon), solely as Owner Trustee/1
under a Trust Agreement between it and ICON/Boardman Facility LLC (the successor
to Western America Financial, Inc.), the beneficial owner and Owner
Participant/2
-----------------------
1/ "Owner Trustee" is defined in the Omnibus Amendment to the Lease Agreement as
Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., a national banking association, successor to First
Interstate Bank of Oregon, N.A., f/k/a First National Bank of Oregon, not in its
individual capacity but solely as Owner Trustee, together with its successors
and assigns. See Exhibit A-1.9 at 2.
2/ "Owner Participant" is defined in the Omnibus Amendment to the Lease
Agreement as ICON/BOARDMAN Facility LLC, a Delaware limited liability company,
together with its successors and assigns. See Exhibit A-1.9 at 2.
4
in the Financing Transaction. Under the Lease Agreement, Portland General is
responsible for the operation and maintenance of the Facility.
Under the Lease Agreement, which expires in January 2005, Portland General
has an option to renew the Lease, upon advance notice of no less than one year,
for an initial renewal period of 5 years at half the average rent paid during
the basic 25 year lease term ending in January 2005. In January 2004, Portland
General exercised its option to extend the lease to 2010.
Subsequent to the initial renewal period ending in January 2010, Portland
General has the option to renew, at Fair Market Rental Value ("FMRV"),/3 for
rental periods of one or more whole years. The aggregate of all such renewal
periods may not exceed 20 years.
Although Portland General also has the option to purchase the Facility at
certain times at a fair market value purchase price to be determined through
negotiation between Portland General and the Owner Participant, Portland General
has not exercised this option in accordance with the terms of the Lease
Agreement because the option requires one year advance notice. Instead, Portland
General and the Owner Participant have mutually agreed upon terms for the
Purchase notwithstanding the one year notice to exercise the option to purchase
under the Lease Agreement. Portland General and the Owner Participant have
agreed on a fair market purchase price, assuming the purchase closes by October
29, 2004. If the closing is delayed but takes place on or before November 30,
2004, the purchase price will be increased for each day after October 29, 2004
that closing is delayed based on the 90-day London Interbank Offered Rate
("LIBOR") determined two days before the closing. The closing may be delayed
beyond November 30, 2004 only upon mutual agreement, including agreement on a
new purchase price.
The funds to be used to purchase the Facility will come from Portland
General's internally generated cash.
-----------------------
3 "Fair Market Rental Value" is defined in the Lease Agreement as:
the fair market rental value which would be obtained in an
arm's-length transaction between an informed and willing lessee
and an informed and willing lessor, in either case under no
compulsion to lease, for the lease of the Equipment on the terms
set forth, or referred to, in Section 19 for a Renewal Period,
calculated at the higher of (a) the value for the use of the
Equipment in place at the Site, assuming, in the determination of
such fair market rental value, that (i) such lessee has rights to
use the premises on which the Equipment is situated and necessary
ancillary rights in connection with the operation of the
Equipment which are comparable to those provided to Lessor in the
Facilities Agreement and (ii) the Facility is in the condition
and repair required to be maintained by the terms of this Lease
and the Facilities Agreement (unless such fair market rental
value is being determined for the purposes of Section 17(c), in
which case the assumption described in this clause (ii) shall not
be made), or (b) the value for the use of the Equipment (after
deducting amounts appropriately to reflect the cost of
dismantling, shipment and reconstruction) at any place other than
in place at the Site.
See Exhibit A-1.1 at 4.
5
There are no fees, commissions or other renumeration to be paid by Portland
General to the Owner Trustee, the Owner Participant or any other party in
connection with the purchase of the Facility. The Owner Participant is
responsible for all of its costs and expenses related to the purchase of the
Facility and the termination of the Financing Transaction. Portland General will
pay the usual and customary costs and expenses of the Owner Trustee, the
indenture trustee and the loan participant, the other parties to the Financing
Transaction, incurred by them in connection with termination of the Financing
Transaction. As noted in Item 2, the fees and expenses that Portland General
expects to incur in connection with the Purchase are estimated to be less than
$20,000.
None of the parties to the Financing Transaction, including the Owner
Trustee or the Owner Participant, are affiliated with Portland General, have any
officers or directors in common with Portland General or own any voting
securities of Portland General.
Following the Purchase, Portland General will continue to operate and
maintain the Facility for the benefit of the Boardman Plant Co-Owners. The
Boardman Plant Co-Owners are evaluating a purchase of a percentage interest in
the Facility from Portland General at a later date in the future. At this time,
it is expected that such percentage would be proportional to the Boardman Plant
Co-Owners' current interest in the Boardman Plant. Portland General expects
that, pending any sale, the Boardman Plant Co-Owners will continue to pay their
pro-rata share of current rate (2004 calendar year) lease rental./4 Should
Portland General be subject to the Act at the time of such sale, Portland
General would apply for such authorization as may be required under Section
12(d), and Rule 44 thereunder, prior to effecting the sale.
Item 2. Fees, Commissions and Expenses.
Portland General estimates the fees and expenses associated with the
completion of the Purchase to be less than $4,000 for Trustee administrative
charges related to lease termination and approximately $16,000 for legal and
other expenses associated with the transaction.
Item 3. Applicable Statutory Provisions.
A. Applicable Provisions
Sections 9(a)(1) and 10 of the Act are considered applicable to the
proposed transaction.
To the extent that the proposed transaction is considered by the Commission
to require authorizations, exemption or approval under any section of the Act or
the rules and regulations thereunder other than those set forth above, request
for such authorization, exemption or approval is hereby made.
-----------------------
4 If the Commission considers the amount Portland General charges the Boardman
Plant Co-Owners as described above to be a partial disposition of the Facility
by lease subject to Section 12(d), Portland General hereby requests
authorization to enter into such transactions with the Boardman Plant Co-Owners.
6
B. Legal Analysis
1. Sections 9(a)(1) and 10
Section 9(a)(1) of the Act makes it unlawful, without approval of the
Commission under Section 10, for the subsidiary company of any registered
holding company to acquire, directly or indirectly, any securities or utility
assets or any other interest in any business. As described below, the Purchase
complies with all of the applicable provisions of Section 10 of the Act.
a. Section 10(b)(1)
The Commission may not approve the Purchase if it determines, pursuant to
Section 10(b)(1), that such acquisition will tend towards interlocking relations
or the concentration of control of public-utility companies, of a kind or to an
extent detrimental to the public interest or the interest of investors or
consumers. For the reasons given below, there is no basis in this case for the
Commission to make either of those negative findings concerning the Purchase.
Section 10(b)(1) was primarily aimed at preventing business combinations
unrelated to operating efficiencies./5 The Purchase is consistent with the
efficient operation of Portland General. The Facility is an asset that is
already integrated into the Boardman Plant; the Facility and Boardman Plant are
located side by side and are physically connected. See Exhibit B. Further, under
the current Lease Agreement, Portland General is already responsible for the
operation and maintenance of the Facility. The proposed transaction simplifies
the ownership and financial structure of the various assets that are necessary
for the operation of the Boardman Plant.
Based on the present circumstances, the change in ownership of the Facility
from the Owner Participant to Portland General will not significantly affect
operations of the Facility and will not be detrimental to the public interest or
the interest of investors or consumers.
b. Section 10(b)(2)
The Commission may not approve the Purchase if it determines, pursuant to
Section 10(b)(2), that the consideration (including the fees and expenses
associated with the transaction) to be paid by Portland General is not
reasonable or does not bear fair relation to the investment in and the earning
capacity of the utility assets being acquired. For the reasons given below,
there is no basis in this case for the Commission to make either of these
negative findings concerning the consideration being offered by Portland
General.
The process by which Portland General and the Owner Participant reached
agreement on the Purchase demonstrates that the requirements of Section 10(b)(2)
have been satisfied. The
-----------------------
5 See Section 1(b)(4) of the Act (finding that the public interests of consumers
are adversely affected "when the growth and extension of holding companies bears
no relation to economy of management and operation or the integration and
coordination of related operating properties. . . .").
7
negotiation between Portland General and the Owner Participant was at
arms-length; as indicated above, Portland General and the Owner Participant are
not affiliated. Moreover, as the operator of the Facility for many years,
Portland General has extensive experience with the Facility and full knowledge
of its value. The consideration agreed to by the parties reflects arm's-length
negotiation by unaffiliated parties with adequate knowledge of the asset, the
relevant market, and other alternatives to the transaction and, accordingly, it
should be considered fair.
This Commission has previously recognized that, as here, when the
agreed-upon consideration for an acquisition is the result of arms-length
negotiations between the managements of the companies involved, there is
persuasive evidence that the requirements of Section 10(b)(2) have been
satisfied./6
c. Section 10(b)(3)
The Commission may not approve the Purchase if it determines, pursuant to
Section 10(b)(3), that the acquisition will unduly complicate the capital
structure of Portland General or will be detrimental to the public interest or
the interest of investors or consumers or the proper functioning of the
holding-company system. For the reasons given below, there is no basis in this
case for the Commission to make either of these negative findings concerning the
Purchase.
The capital structure of Portland General after the Purchase will not be
unduly complicated and will be substantially unchanged from Portland General's
capital structure prior to the completion of the transaction. See Exhibits C-1
and C-2. Indeed, the termination of the Lease Agreement for the Facility makes
Portland General's capital structure marginally more simple because the lease is
replaced by fee simple ownership of the Facility.
Finally, as set forth more fully in the discussion of the standards of
Section 10(b)(1) above and elsewhere in the Application, the Purchase will be in
the public interest and the interest of investors and consumers, and will not be
detrimental to the proper functioning of the holding company system.
d. Section 10(c)(1)
Section 10(c)(1) requires that the Commission not approve an acquisition of
securities or utility assets, or any other interests, which is unlawful under
the provisions of Section 8 or is detrimental to the carrying out of the
provisions of Section 11.
(i) Section 8
-----------------------
6 See Progress Energy, Inc. and Piedmont Natural Gas Company, Inc., Holding Co.
Act Release No. 27718 (Sept. 2, 2003); Public Service Company of Oklahoma,
Holding Co. Act Release No. 26044 (Apr. 29, 1994); Entergy Corporation, et al.,
Holding Co. Act Release No. 25952 (Dec. 17, 1993), petition for reconsideration
denied, Holding Co. Act Release No. 26037 (Apr. 28, 1994).
8
Section 8 refers to the requirements of state law as it may relate to
ownership or operation by a single company of the utility assets of an electric
utility company and a gas utility company serving substantially the same service
territory. Since the Purchase does not create such an arrangement, Section 8 is
not applicable to the Purchase.
(ii) Section 11
Section 11(b)(1) generally confines the utility properties of a registered
holding company to a "single integrated public-utility system." An integrated
electric public utility system is defined as "a system consisting of one or more
units of generating plants and/or transmission lines and/or distributing
facilities, whose utility assets, whether owned by one or more electric utility
companies, are physically interconnected or capable of physical interconnection
and which under normal conditions may be economically operated as a single
interconnected and coordinated system confined in its operations to a single
area or region, in one or more States, not so large as to impair (considering
the state of the art and the area or region affected) the advantages of
localized management, efficient operation, and the effectiveness of
regulation."/7
The combined properties will certainly constitute a single integrated
electric utility within the meaning of Section 2(a)(29)(A). As discussed above,
the Purchase involves the acquisition of an asset already integrated into
Portland General's utility business. See Exhibit B. Under the Lease Agreement,
the Facility already functions as an integrated unit of the Boardman Plant,
which is an electric generating facility located in Oregon and operated by
Portland General. Only the ownership of the Facility will change as a result of
the proposed transaction, not any aspect of its operation in connection with the
Boardman Plant.
Further, Section 11(b)(2) of the Act requires that "the corporate structure
or continued existence of any company in the holding-company system does not
unduly or unnecessarily complicate the structure, or unfairly or inequitably
distribute voting power among security holders, of such holding-company system."
Because the Purchase will neither affect the structure of the holding company
system nor the voting rights of Portland General's security holders, Section
11(b)(2) is not implicated by the Purchase.
e. Section 10(c)(2)
Section 10(c)(2) states that the Commission may not approve the acquisition
of securities or utility assets of a public utility or holding company unless
such acquisition will serve the public interest by tending towards the
economical and efficient development of an integrated public utility system.
As discussed in Items 3.b.1.a and 3.b.1.d.ii above, the Purchase is fully
consistent with Portland General's integrated public utility system and the
simplification of Portland General's ownership of the assets associated with the
Boardman Plant.
-----------------------
7 PUHCA Section 2(a)(29)(A).
9
The Commission has allowed such acquisitions under similar circumstances.
For example, in Public Service Company of Oklahoma,/8 the Commission allowed the
Public Service Company of Oklahoma ("PSO") to acquire certain electric
distribution facilities from the City of Clinton in a cash purchase. The
facilities were, prior to the purchase, leased by PSO from the City of Clinton
under a lease agreement for a term of twenty-five years. PSO had sought
approval, under Sections 9(a) and 10 of the Act, to acquire these facilities
noting, inter alia, that (1) it would not incur a penalty for early termination
of the Lease as a result of the proposed purchase and (2) if it did not purchase
the facilities at that time, PSO had no assurance that the City of Clinton would
sell the facilities to PSO at a later date. The Commission allowed the purchase.
Portland General seeks to purchase the Facility from the Owner Participant
under similar circumstances. Like Public Service Company of Oklahoma, Portland
General will not incur a penalty for early termination of the Lease Agreement as
a result of the Purchase. Although, according to the terms of the Lease
Agreement, Portland General would be given the opportunity to purchase the
Facility at certain times, it is unclear whether Portland General and the Owner
Participant will be able to agree upon the purchase price and other terms in
future negotiations. Accordingly, the Commission should permit the Purchase.
f. Section 10(f)
Section 10(f) prohibits the Commission from approving an acquisition unless
the Commission is satisfied that the acquisition will be undertaken in
compliance with applicable state laws. The Purchase is not subject to the
jurisdiction of the OPUC and all other applicable law will be observed in
connection with effecting the Purchase. See Exhibit D-1. Accordingly, Section
10(f) is satisfied.
Item 4. Regulatory Approval.
No state or federal commission, other than this Commission, has
jurisdiction over the proposed transaction.
Item 5. Procedure.
The Commission is respectfully requested to publish the requisite notice
under Rule 23 with respect to this Application as soon as possible, such notice
to specify a date by which comments must be entered and such date being the date
when an order of the Commission granting and permitting this Application to
become effective may be entered by the Commission. Applicants request that the
Commission's order be issued as soon as the rules allow, and before October 22,
2004, so that the closing of the Purchase may occur before October 29, 2004.
Applicants request that there should not be a 30-day waiting period between
issuance of the Commission's order and the date on which the order is to become
effective. Applicants hereby
