History and Business of Company
(this information may include date of incorporation)
PSEG was incorporated under the laws of the State of New Jersey in 1985 and has its principal executive offices located at 80 Park Plaza, Newark, New Jersey 07102. PSEG is an exempt public utility holding company under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 (PUHCA).

PSEG has four principal direct wholly-owned subsidiaries: PSE&G, Power, Energy Holdings and PSEG Services Corporation (Services).

The regulatory structure that has historically governed the electric and gas utility industries in the United States (U.S.) has changed dramatically in recent years. Deregulation is complete in New Jersey and is complete or underway in certain other states in the Northeast and across the U.S. Actions by state regulators, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and the enforcement of the National Energy Policy Act of 1992 (Energy Policy Act) have afforded power marketers, merchant generators, Exempt Wholesale Generators (EWGs) and utilities the opportunity to compete actively in wholesale energy markets and have allowed consumers the right to choose their energy suppliers. The deregulation and restructuring of the nation's energy markets, the unbundling of energy and related services, the diverse strategies within the industry related to holding, building, buying or selling generation capacity and consolidation within the industry had, and are likely to continue to have, a significant effect on PSEG and its subsidiaries, providing them with new opportunities and exposing them to new risks.

As energy markets have changed dramatically in recent years, PSEG and its subsidiaries have transitioned from a vertically integrated utility to an energy company with a diversified business mix. PSEG has realigned its organizational structure to address the competitive environment brought about by the deregulation of the electric generation industry and has evolved from primarily being a state regulated New Jersey utility to operating as a competitive energy company with operations primarily in the Northeastern U.S. and in other select markets. As the competitive portion of PSEG's business has grown, the resulting financial risks and rewards have become greater, causing financial requirements to change and increasing the volatility of earnings and cash flows.

PSE&G is a New Jersey corporation, incorporated in 1924, and has principal executive offices at 80 Park Plaza, Newark, New Jersey 07102. PSE&G is an operating public utility company engaged principally in the transmission and distribution of electric energy and gas service in New Jersey. PSE&G, pursuant to an order of the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (BPU) issued under the provisions of the New Jersey Electric Discount and Energy Competition Act, (EDECA), transferred all of its electric generation facilities, plant, equipment and wholesale power trading contracts to Power and its subsidiaries in August 2000. Also, pursuant to a BPU order, PSE&G transferred its gas supply business, including its inventories and supply contracts, to Power in May 2002. PSE&G continues to own and operate its electric and gas transmission and distribution business. In addition, PSE&G Transition Funding LLC (Transition Funding), a bankruptcy-remote subsidiary of PSE&G, was formed in 1999 for the sole purpose of issuing $2.525 billion principal amount of transition bonds in connection with the securitization of $2.4 billion of PSE&G's stranded costs approved for recovery by the BPU under EDECA.

PSE&G provides electric and gas service in areas of New Jersey in which approximately 5.5 million people, about 70% of the State's population, reside. PSE&G's electric and gas service area is a corridor of approximately 2,600 square miles running diagonally across New Jersey from Bergen County in the northeast to an area below the city of Camden in the southwest. The greater portion of this area is served with both electricity and gas, but some parts are served with electricity only and other parts with gas only. This heavily populated, commercialized and industrialized territory encompasses most of New Jersey's largest municipalities, including its six largest cities-Newark, Jersey City, Paterson, Elizabeth, Trenton and Camden-in addition to approximately 300 suburban and rural communities. This service territory contains a diversified mix of commerce and industry, including major facilities of many nationally prominent corporations. PSE&G's load requirements are almost evenly split among residential, commercial and industrial customers. PSE&G believes that it has all the franchises (including consents) necessary for its electric and gas distribution operations in the territory it serves. Such franchise rights are not exclusive.

Power is a Delaware limited liability company, formed in 1999, and has its principal executive offices at 80 Park Plaza, Newark, New Jersey 07102. Power is a multi-regional, independent wholesale energy supply company that integrates its generating asset operations with its wholesale energy, fuel supply, energy trading and marketing and risk management function through three principal direct wholly-owned subsidiaries: Nuclear, which owns and operates nuclear generating stations, Fossil, which develops, owns and operates domestic fossil generating stations and ER&T, which markets the capacity and production of Fossil's and Nuclear's stations and manages the commodity price risks and market risks related to generation.

Energy Holdings is a New Jersey limited liability company and is the successor to PSEG Energy Holdings Inc., which was originally incorporated in 1989. Energy Holdings' principal executive offices are located at 80 Park Plaza, Newark, New Jersey 07102. Energy Holdings has two principal direct wholly-owned subsidiaries, which are also its segments; Global and Resources. By September 2003, Energy Holdings completed its planned sale of PSEG Energy Technologies Inc. (Energy Technologies), see Note 5. Discontinued Operations of the Notes.

Energy Holdings has pursued investment opportunities in the global energy markets, with Global focusing on the operating segments of the electric industries and Resources primarily making financial investments in these industries. Global and Resources have more than 100 financial and operating investments.
