Item 9. Regulation FD Disclosure
On April 27, 2004, PPL Montana, LLC (the "Company") filed a Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), which suspends the Company's duty to file reports with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company's obligation to file such reports began in 2001 following its exchange of unregistered 8.903% Pass Through Certificates for SEC-registered securities with the same material financial terms (the "Certificates"). Under applicable SEC rules, the Company no longer is obligated to file such reports because there are fewer than 300 holders of record of the Certificates. There currently are 16 holders of record of the Certificates.
The Company continues to be bound by the terms of the Pass Through Trust Agreement (the "Trust Agreement") between the Company and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as Pass Through Trustee (the "Trustee"). Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, the Company is required to provide certain financial information to the Trustee, and the Trustee is required, in turn, to provide this information to holders of Certificates, upon request.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
