The Underwriting Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.



					Regulatory and
		New Facility			Other Short-Term

FET			$	1,000		No limitations
ATSI			$	100			$	100
TrAILCo			$	200			$	200	*
	* On April 11, 2012, a joint application was filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission seeking authorization to incur short-term debt in the amount of $400 million with respect to TrAILCo.

The New Credit Facility replaces, with respect to ATSI, its $100 million borrowing capability under the FirstEnergy Facility, and with respect to TrAILCo, the $450 million TrAILCo credit facility dated as of January 25, 2010 (TrAILCO Facility) by and among the lenders named therein and BNP Paribas, as administrative agent. The FirstEnergy Facility was amended and extended on May 8, 2012 with respect to the remaining borrowers thereunder, as described below. The TrAILCo Facility was terminated on May 8, 2012.

Commitments under the New Credit Facility will be available until May 8, 2017, unless the lenders agree, at the request of the applicable borrowers, to up to two additional one-year extensions.

Generally, borrowings under the New Credit Facility are available to each borrower separately and will mature on the earlier of 364 days from the date of borrowing or the commitment termination date, as the same may be extended. Upon a borrower demonstrating to the administrative agent authorization to borrow amounts maturing more than 364 days from the date of borrowing, its borrowings will mature on the latest commitment termination date. Proceeds may be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes of the borrowers.

Borrowings under the New Credit Facility may take the form of alternate base rate advances or eurodollar rate advances, borrowed pro rata from all lenders in proportion to their respective commitments.

Outstanding alternate base rate advances will bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum equal to the sum of the highest of (i) the administrative agent's publicly-announced "prime rate", (ii) the sum of 1/2 of 1% per annum plus the federal funds rate in effect from time to time and (iii) the daily London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) for a one-month interest period plus 1% plus an applicable margin determined by reference to the applicable borrower's then-current senior unsecured non-credit enhanced debt ratings (reference ratings). Outstanding eurodollar rate advances will bear interest at LIBOR for interest periods of one, two, three or six months plus an applicable margin determined by reference to the applicable reference ratings. Changes in reference ratings of a borrower would lower or raise its applicable margin depending on whether ratings improved or were lowered, respectively.

Under the New Credit Facility, FET will pay the lenders a commitment fee on the amount of the unused commitments on a quarterly basis based on the reference ratings of FET.

In addition, under the New Credit Facility, borrowers may request from time to time the issuance of letters of credit which may be renewable upon the request of the borrowers and which expire upon the earlier of one year from the date of issuance or the third

business day preceding the latest termination date of the New Credit Facility. The stated amount of outstanding letters of credit will count against total commitments available under the New Credit Facility and against the applicable borrower's sub-limit. Currently, the initial fronting banks have agreed to issue up to an aggregate amount of $225 million of letters of credit under the New Credit Facility. Each borrower will pay the lenders a fee equal to the then applicable margin for eurodollar rate advances for such borrower multiplied by the stated amount of each letter of credit issued for its account, in each case for the number of days that such letter of credit is issued but undrawn, payable quarterly.

Under the New Credit Facility, borrowings are available upon customary representations and warranties, terms and conditions for facilities of this type, and the borrowers are subject to certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on the ability to sell, lease, transfer or dispose of assets, to grant or permit liens upon properties to secure debt, to merge or consolidate, subject to certain exceptions, the ability to enter into any prohibited transactions as defined in the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 or the ability to use the proceeds of any borrowing for prohibited purposes. Each borrower is also required to maintain a consolidated debt to total capitalization ratio, as defined in the New Credit Facility, of no more than 0.65 to 1.00 in the case of ATSI and TrAILCo and of no more than 0.70 to 1.00 in the case of FET.

Borrowings under the New Credit Facility are subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of events of default that each borrower considers usual and customary, including a cross-default for other indebtedness in excess of $100 million.

The following banks are parties to the New Credit Facility with individual commitments equal to the indicated percentages of the total commitments:




Banks	Percentage of Total Commitments
PNC Bank, National Association		7.625%
The Royal Bank of Scotland plc		5%
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.		7.625%
