<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As we have previously disclosed, Arizona Public Service Company (&#147;APS&#148;) and Southern California Edison Company (&#147;SCE&#148;) have an agreement whereby APS has agreed to purchase SCE&#146;s 48% interest in each of Units 4 and 5 of the Four Corners Power Plant (&#147;Four Corners&#148;).&#160; The principal remaining condition to closing of this transaction set forth in the agreement is the negotiation and execution of a new coal supply contract for Four Corners on terms reasonably acceptable to APS. These negotiations, and the related transaction whereby ownership of the coal supplier that operates the mine that serves Four Corners would be transferred to the Navajo Nation, are proceeding.&#160; Because all of the conditions to closing were not satisfied by December&nbsp;31, 2012, either APS or SCE currently may elect to terminate the agreement at any time, unless the party seeking to terminate is then in breach of the agreement.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In our Form&nbsp;8-K dated May&nbsp;21, 2013, we disclosed that on May&nbsp;9, 2013, the Arizona Corporation Commission (the &#147;ACC&#148;) voted to re-examine the facilitation of a deregulated retail electric market in Arizona.&nbsp; The Commission has opened a docket for this matter and set a procedural schedule whereby comments from interested parties on the pros and cons of retail electric deregulation will be filed in July&nbsp;and August&nbsp;2013. The Commission stated that after it has had an opportunity to review the written comments, it plans to convene an open meeting to discuss the issues and information filed in the docket.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In light of this development, APS currently expects that it will not be in a position to close the Four Corners purchase transaction with SCE until the ACC&#146;s intentions with regard to pursuing deregulation in Arizona become clearer. While the process set by the ACC to consider this issue proceeds, APS intends to take action to maintain all necessary regulatory and other approvals required on its behalf to complete the transaction.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As we disclosed in our Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2012, the Environmental Protection Agency (&#147;EPA&#148;), in its final regional haze rule&nbsp;for Four Corners, set a date of July&nbsp;1, 2013 for the Four Corners&#146; owners to elect one of two emissions alternatives to apply to Four Corners. Either alternative would involve substantial investment by the owners in additional post-combustion pollution controls, and accordingly contemplates the continued operation of Four Corners for a substantial period of time. In light of the docket opened by the ACC concerning deregulation, APS is in discussions with the EPA for a potential extension of the July&nbsp;1 deadline.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">APS cannot predict whether the closing of its planned purchase of SCE&#146;s interest in Four Corners will occur, or the effect that the ACC&#146;s re-examination of a possible deregulated retail electric market in Arizona may have on the future operation of the plant.</font></p>

Item 8.01
Other Events.
As we have previously disclosed, Arizona Public Service Company ("APS") and Southern California Edison Company ("SCE") have an agreement whereby APS has agreed to purchase SCE's 48% interest in each of Units 4 and 5 of the Four Corners Power Plant ("Four Corners").  The principal remaining condition to closing of this transaction set forth in the agreement is the negotiation and execution of a new coal supply contract for Four Corners on terms reasonably acceptable to APS. These negotiations, and the related transaction whereby ownership of the coal supplier that operates the mine that serves Four Corners would be transferred to the Navajo Nation, are proceeding.  Because all of the conditions to closing were not satisfied by December 31, 2012, either APS or SCE currently may elect to terminate the agreement at any time, unless the party seeking to terminate is then in breach of the agreement.
In our Form 8-K dated May 21, 2013, we disclosed that on May 9, 2013, the Arizona Corporation Commission (the "ACC") voted to re-examine the facilitation of a deregulated retail electric market in Arizona.  The Commission has opened a docket for this matter and set a procedural schedule whereby comments from interested parties on the pros and cons of retail electric deregulation will be filed in July and August 2013. The Commission stated that after it has had an opportunity to review the written comments, it plans to convene an open meeting to discuss the issues and information filed in the docket.
In light of this development, APS currently expects that it will not be in a position to close the Four Corners purchase transaction with SCE until the ACC's intentions with regard to pursuing deregulation in Arizona become clearer. While the process set by the ACC to consider this issue proceeds, APS intends to take action to maintain all necessary regulatory and other approvals required on its behalf to complete the transaction.
As we disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA"), in its final regional haze rule for Four Corners, set a date of July 1, 2013 for the Four Corners' owners to elect one of two emissions alternatives to apply to Four Corners. Either alternative would involve substantial investment by the owners in additional post-combustion pollution controls, and accordingly contemplates the continued operation of Four Corners for a substantial period of time. In light of the docket opened by the ACC concerning deregulation, APS is in discussions with the EPA for a potential extension of the July 1 deadline.
APS cannot predict whether the closing of its planned purchase of SCE's interest in Four Corners will occur, or the effect that the ACC's re-examination of a possible deregulated retail electric market in Arizona may have on the future operation of the plant.
