Quarterly Financial Report September 30th, 2009
Quarter Highlights and Recent Developments On July 1st, 2009, the Company sold US$5.0 million face value of sovereign bonds maturing 2011. On July 14th, 2009, the Company sent a letter to EDE Este, declaring the latter in default under the rescheduling agreement signed in August 2006. Specifically, EDE Este failed to comply with the minimum monthly payment of $5.5 million during April, 2009. The PPA was suspended until May 2010. On September 3rd, 2009, the issuance of third tranche for US$6 million of the local bond ended. This tranche has a maturity of 24 months and an annual interest rate of 8.5% that will be paid monthly to investors. During 3Q’09, the Company made partial repurchases of the 144A Senior Notes up to the amount of $4.5 million (face value). As a result of a decrease in fuel oil prices during the period, EGE Haina experienced a drop in the Consolidated EBITDA for the most recently ended period of four consecutive fiscal quarters. Consequently, EGE Haina reported a Consolidated Net Debt to Consolidated EBITDA Ratio and a Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of 5.0:1.0 and 2.6:1.0, respectively, as of September 30th, 2009. In October EGE Haina offset accounts receivable from EDE Sur with accounts payable to CDEEE by US$13.7 million. On October 22nd, the issuance of fourth tranche of the local bond initiated. This tranche has a maturity of 30 months and an annual interest rate of 8.75% that will be paid monthly to investors. The tranche was fully placed within four working days; the fastest compared to prior tranches. In November 2009, the Company sold US$2.0 million face value of sovereign bonds maturing 2012. In November 2009, the Company repaid US$7.5 million corresponding to the debt with Banco de Reservas. On November 9th, the Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) approved a 28-month Stand-By Arrangement for the Dominican Republic in the amount of SDR 1,094.5 million (about US$1.7 billion) to support the country’s strategy to cope with the adverse effects of the global economic environment. The authorities’ program aims to pursue short-term countercyclical policies; strengthen medium-term sustainability; reduce vulnerabilities exposed during the global crisis; and lay the foundations for a gradual recovery and sustained growth. The Stand-By Arrangement is designed to bolster confidence in the policy framework and catalyze additional 2 financing from other multilateral sources.

3Q’09 revenues decreased by 40% when compared with the same period of previous year (US$ 88.4MM Vs. US$ 146.2MM). This negative variance is essentially driven by a 41.4% decrease in the average energy sales price for the period (3Q’09 US$150.3/MWh vs 3Q’08 US$232.4/MWh) as a result of the reduction in Fuel Oil prices, which is the main escalator of our PPAs’ formula, and lower demand (3Q’09 513.7 GWh vs 3Q’08 587.3 GWh) as a result of the suspension of the EDE Este PPA in November 2008.

During 3Q’09 operating expenses were lower than 3Q’08 comparative figures by 36% (US$77.8 MM Vs. US$121.6 MM). The positive variance is the result of: Own generation: 25% or US$11.2 MM decrease in fuel costs, essentially as a result of a positive average price effect for the period (3Q’09 US$66.0 per BBLS vs 3Q’08 US$102.5 per BBLS); partially offset by higher fuel consumption (3Q’09 442.0 thousand of BBLS vs 3Q’08 348.4 thousand of BBLS). Transmission Tolls: 11% or US$0.3 MM decrease when compared to 3Q’08, as a result of lower energy demand. Purchased power: 59% or US$31.4 MM decrease is mainly the result of lower spot energy purchases due to a positive average price effect for the period (3Q’09 US$151.4/MWh vs 3Q’08 US$226.5/MWh) and a decrease in energy purchases (3Q’09 131.9 GWh vs 3Q’08 181.7 GWh), driven by a lower demand for the period. General and administrative expenses: 15% or US$1.2 MM decrease mainly due to i) lower management fee expenses by US$1.1 MM as a consequence of a decrease in revenues; ii) lower regulatory payments by US$0.4 MM; iii) partially offset by US$0.3 MM higher minimum taxes provision (asset tax).

Quarterly Financial Report September 30th, 2009
Net Income Net income was US$8.1 MM in the 3Q’09, compared to US$19.4 MM in the same period of the prior year. The negative variance of US$11.3 is explained by: Lower EBITDA by US$14.5 MM as explained in the paragraphs above. US$3.5 MM higher financial expenses net, mainly due to i) lower interest income from distribution companies by US$2.0 MM; ii) lower interest gain in investment by US$0.5; iii) higher interest expenses paid to local banks by US$0.4 MM; iv) higher interest expenses due to the local bond by US$0.3 MM and v) higher interest expenses and taxes due to the 144-A bond by US$1.3 MM and vi) partially offset by US$0.2 MM lower bank commission and interest to private investors. The abovementioned is partially offset by lower other expenses by US$3.7 MM. This variation is mainly the result of: i) US$1.3 MM gain in repurchase of 144-A Senior notes; ii) lower withholding taxes on management fees in US$2.4 MM, since these were presented as part of other expenses in 3Q 2008 while in 2009 are being shown in G&A expenses. US$3.0 MM lower income tax.
Cash Flow Cash used in operating activities Net cash used in operating activities was US$10.2 MM during the 3Q’09, compared to US$7.1 MM in the same period of 2008. The most significant factors that increased the cash used in operating activities were: a) US$11.3 MM decrease in net income; b)US$10.8 MM decrease other liabilities; c)US$4.3 MM decrease in accounts payable; d)US$2.2 MM decrease in accounts payable to related parties and d)US$1.8 MM decrease in other non current liabilities; partially offset by: i) US$12.3 MM decrease in inventories; ii) US$10.8 MM decrease in accounts receivable and iii))US$4.2 MM of adjustments reconciling net income to the net cash used in operating activities. Cash provided by investing activities Net cash provided by investing activities was US$6.8 MM during the 3Q’09, compared to US$1.7 MM in the same period of the prior year. The US$5.1 MM increase is the net result of i) US$2.9 MM higher sale of property, plant and equipment essentially as a consequence of the engines sold to Megacentro; ii) US$4.4 MM higher proceeds from long term investments due to the sale of sovereign bonds and iii) US$16.3 MM lower additions to property plant and equipment partially offset by US$19.3 MM lower collections from long term receivables due to the full collection during the 3Q’08 of such balance. Cash provided by (used in) financing activities Net cash provided by financing activities was US$2.8 MM in the 3Q’09, compared to US$2.0 MM used in the same period of prior year for a variance of US$4.8 MM. Such variance is mainly driven by the issuance of long-term debt by US$6.0 MM of the 3rd tranche of the local bond and short term debt by US$2.0 MM, partially offset with debt repurchase of the 144-A Senior Notes by US$3.2 MM paid during 3Q’09.

Quarterly Financial Report September 30th, 2009
Collections Cash Collection rate for 3Q’09 was 43% as compared to the 89% level of last year’s same quarter. The negative variance is mainly due to lower cash collections from Edenorte and Edesur, which was 28% for the 3Q’09 compared to 50% in the same period of previous year; partially offset by the effect of the suspension of the EDE Este PPA, since the Company continues to receive the payments of pledged customers and credit card collections.

Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. If the risks or uncertainties ever materialize or the assumptions prove incorrect, the results of the Company may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements and assumptions. For us, particular uncertainties that could adversely or positively affect our future results include, but are not limited to: changes in general economic, political, governmental and business conditions; the behavior of financial markets; changes in commercial market regulations.
