ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS
         ------------

                  As previously reported on May 6 and 7, 1998, an Administrative
Law Judge (ALJ) issued Recommended  Decisions in the Metropolitan Edison Company
(Met-Ed) and Pennsylvania Electric Company (Penelec)  restructuring  proceedings
pending before the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PaPUC).

                  Reference  is made to the  Quarterly  Reports on Form 10-Q for
the  quarter  ended  March  31,  1998  filed by GPU for a  summary  of the ALJ's
recommendations which description is incorporated in this Report by reference.

                  On June 4, 1998,  the PaPUC,  in non-binding  polls,  approved
restructuring plans for Met-Ed and Penelec. Among other things, the PaPUC action
would  allow  Met-Ed to collect  through a  competitive  transition  charge $975
million of its requested $1.466 billion in stranded costs over 11 years; Penelec
would recover approximately $858 million of its requested $1.245 billion over an
8 year  period.  Retail  choice  would  begin for one  third of each  companies'
customers January 1, 1999,  another third could choose their supplier on January
2, 1999 and full retail choice would be available on January 2, 2000.  The PaPUC
has scheduled final votes for June 25, 1998.

                  In a news release  issued  following  the PaPUC's  votes,  GPU
stated that the PaPUC's  reductions in transmission and  distribution  rates and
failure to insure  full  recovery of  non-utility  generation  costs  amounts to
"confiscating  the property of GPU Energy and its  shareholders  in violation of
their  legal and  constitutional  rights."  Noting  that it could not accept the

PaPUC's  action,  GPU  stated  that if the  PaPUC's  final  order  followed  its
preliminary  action,  GPU would  "vigorously  pursue all  available  remedies to
challenge the ruling."

                  Copies of GPU's news release and the news  releases  issued by
the PaPUC are annexed as exhibits.
