statements.





                        OLD DOMINION ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   In the opinion of the management of Old Dominion  Electric  Cooperative
     ("Old Dominion"), the accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial
     statements contain all adjustments, which include only normal  recurring
     adjustments,  necessary for a fair statement of Old Dominion's
     consolidated  financial  position as of March 31, 1996, and its
     consolidated results  of  operations  and cash flows for the three  months
     ended  March 31,  1996 and 1995.  The  consolidated  results of operations
     for the three months ended March 31, 1996 are not necessarily  indicative
     of the results to be expected for the entire year.  These financial
     statements  should be read in  conjunction  with the financial  statements
     and notes thereto  included in Old Dominion's  1995 Annual Report on Form
     10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

2.   Old Dominion and 10 of its 12 member distribution  systems have established
     an affiliate, CSC Services,  Inc. ("CSC"), to explore alternative  business
     opportunities on behalf of the  cooperatives.  CSC has invested,  with
     three other  participants,  in Seacoast Power LLC,  whose  wholly-owned
     subsidiary,   Seacoast,  Inc.  ("Seacoast"),  has  executed  a six-month
     power sales contract with INECEL, the state-owned  electric utility in
     Ecuador. CSC,  through a wholly-owned  affiliate,  together with the three
     other  participants  in Seacoast  Power LLC, have formed Power  Ventures
     LLC (Power  Ventures LLC,  together with its  affiliates,  referred to as
     "Power  Ventures").  Power  Ventures owns the generating assets necessary
     to fulfill the power sales contract  between Seacoast and INECEL.  Under
     the terms of the  contract,  INECEL is  obligated  to make  monthly
     payments  for energy available,  as well as fuel used, by Seacoast.  Due to
     contract disputes,  INECEL has not yet  remitted  contract  payments of
     approximately  $1.3  million  and $3.2  million for February  and March
     1996,  respectively.  Accordingly,  Seacoast  has stopped  generating
     energy until the disputes  are resolved and past due payments are
     received.  Seacoast is attempting  to enforce the  contract  and is
     actively  working with INECEL to resolve the contract issues in dispute and
     to renegotiate a new, longer term power sales contract.

3.   On March 31, 1996,  Old Dominion  loaned  approximately  $15.1 million to
     Seacoast.  This amount,  together  with  other  amounts  loaned  to
     Seacoast  Power  LLC  by  the  other participants  in  Power  Ventures
     LLC,  was  used  to  fund  capital  investment  in the generating assets
     owned by Power Ventures and to fund operating  expenses.  The note from
     Seacoast is payable in 90 days at an interest  rate of 6.6% and is payable
     from the share of the  profits  generated  by the  operations  and
     activities  of Power  Ventures  that ultimately  accrue to the benefit of
     Old  Dominion and its  members.  This note  replaces the $13.8 million note
     from Seacoast  dated December 31, 1995.  Management  believes that the
     disputes referred to in Note 2 will be resolved, and the note is
     collectible.

4.   On March 27, 1996, the Construction Management Committe approved a motion
     declaring the Clover Power Station Unit 2 commercial as of 00:01, Thursday,
     March 28, 1996.


                        OLD DOMINION ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE

                  ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    Operating Revenues. Old Dominion's operating revenues are derived from power
sales to its Members. Revenues from sales to Members are a function of the
requirement for power by the Members' consumers and Old Dominion's cost of
service in meeting that requirement. The major factors affecting Members'
consumers' demand for power are the growth in the number of consumers and
seasonal weather fluctuations.

    The following table illustrates the increases (decreases) in operating
revenues by component:

                                                         Three Months
                                                             Ended
                                                           March 31,
                                                         1996 vs 1995
                                                        (in thousands)

              Sales to Members:
                Power sales volume                        $12,732
                Blended rates                                (837)
                Fuel adjustment revenue                    (3,538)
                Margin stabilization plan adjustment       (3,250)
                                                         $  5,107

  Operating revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 increased
as compared to the same period in 1995 primarily due to an 11.4% increase in
demand sales and a 13.4% increase in energy sales. These increases were the
result of the severe weather experienced in February and below normal
temperatures in March. Old Dominion's demand and energy sales for the three
months ended March 31, 1996, were 4,297,723 MW and 2,117,939 MWh, respectively.
Old Dominion's demand and energy sales for the three months ended March 31, 1995
were 3,815,963 MW and 1,866,566 MWh, respectively. The increases in demand and
energy sales were partially off-set by a $3.5 million decrease in fuel
adjustment revenue and a $3.3 million change in the margin stabilization plan
adjustment.

    Operating Expenses. Old Dominion has an 11.6% ownership interest in the
North Anna Nuclear Power Station ("North Anna"). While nuclear power plants,
such as North Anna, generally have relatively high fixed costs, such facilities
operate with relatively low variable costs due to lower fuel costs and
technological efficiencies. Owners of nuclear power plants, including Old
Dominion, incur the embedded fixed costs of these facilities whether or not the
units operate. When North Anna is off-line, Old Dominion must purchase
replacement power that is more costly. Any change in the amount of Old
Dominion's energy output from North Anna displaces or is replaced by higher cost
supplemental energy purchases from Virginia Electric and Power Company
("Virginia Power"). As a result, Old Dominion's operating expenses, and
therefore its rates to the Members, are significantly impacted by the operation
of North Anna.

    North Anna capacity factors for 1996 and 1995 were as follows:

                                            Three Months Ended
                                                 March 31,
                                           1996          1995
                   Unit 1                    54.7%        98.4%
                   Unit 2                   101.1         76.4
                   Combined                  78.0         87.3

    During the first quarter of 1996 North Anna Unit 1 was off-line 30 days for
scheduled maintenance and refueling. Unit 2 was not off-line during the first
quarter of 1996. During the three month period ended March 31, 1995, North Anna
Unit 1 was off-line one day for unscheduled maintenance and Unit 2 was off-line
seven days due to the scheduled shutdown for the refueling and steam generator
replacement project, which began on March 25, 1995.

    On March 27, 1996, the Construction Management Committee approved a motion
declaring the Clover Power Station Unit 2 commercial as of 00:01, Thursday,
March 28, 1996, four days ahead of schedule. Clover Power Station Unit 1 was
declared commercial as of 00:01, Saturday, October 7, 1995.

    Old Dominion's energy supply for 1996 and 1995 was as follows:

                                                 Three Months Ended
                                                      March 31,

                                     =========   =====    =========    =====



    Fuel costs increased during the first quarter of 1996 as compared to the
first quarter of 1995 primarily because Clover Unit 1 was in operation for the
entire quarter and Unit 2 came on-line March 28, 1996.

    Purchased power costs decreased during the first quarter of 1996 as compared
to the same period in 1995 primarily because Clover Unit 1 was operating during
the quarter and Unit 2 began operating on March 28, 1996. This decrease was
off-set by increased purchases due to the severe weather in February and below
normal temperatures in March.

    Other operating costs increased in the first three months of 1996 as
compared to the same period in 1995 primarily due to an increase in production
caused by Clover operations in 1996.

    Maintenance expense increased in the first three months of 1996 as compared
to the first three months of 1995 primarily due to Clover Unit 1 operations
during the first quarter of 1996 and Unit 2 operations during the last four days
of March 1996.

    Administrative and general expenses increased during the first three months
of 1996 as compared to 1995 primarily due to Clover Unit 1 being in operation
during the quarter. Additionally, Clover Unit 2 came on-line on March 28, 1996.

    Depreciation expense increased in the first quarter of 1996 as compared to
the first quarter of 1995 due to Clover Unit 1 being in operation during the
quarter and Unit 2 coming on-line on March 28, 1996.

    Other income is the result of recognizing the income from the cross border
tax benefit lease, which was entered into in December 1994. The gain from the
lease had been deferred with recognition based on Unit 2 going into commercial
operation.

    Allowance for borrowed funds used during construction decreased in the first
three months of 1996 as compared to the same period of 1995 primarily as a
result of Clover Unit 1 being in operation during the first quarter of 1996 and
Unit 2 coming on-line on March 28, 1996, four days ahead of schedule.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities increased in
the first quarter of 1996 as compared to 1995 primarily due to changes between
the periods in non-cash working capital, mainly notes receivable, accounts
payable, and accrued expenses. Additionally, a substantial increase in other
liabilities contributed to the increase in net cash provided by operating
activities.

    Financing Activities. On March 1, 1996, Old Dominion finalized a long-term
lease transaction with an owner trust for the benefit of First Union National
Bank of Florida ("First Union"). Under the terms of the transaction, Old
Dominion entered into a 49-year capital lease of its interest in Clover Unit 1
(valued at $315.0 million) to First Union, and simultaneously entered into a
22-year lease of the interest back from First Union. As a result of the
transaction, Old Dominion received $47.5 million, of which $23.6 was a net cash
benefit, which is being recognized in income over the financing lease term, and
$23.9 million which was used to retire a portion of Old Dominion's 8.76% First
Mortgage Bonds, Series 1992 A. Concurrent with the retirement of its Series 1992
A Bonds, Old Dominion issued a like amount of zero coupon First Mortgage Bonds,
Series 1996 A with an effective interest rate of 7.06%. The lease transaction
increased long-term debt and other investments and funds by $51.5 million and
$99.0 million, respectively.

    Investing Activities. Net cash used for investing activities increased
primarily as a result of an increase in investments and funds which resulted
from the long-term lease transaction with an owner trust for the benefit of
First Union.

OTHER MATTERS

Old Dominion and 10 of its 12 member distribution systems have established an
affiliate, CSC Services, Inc. ("CSC"), to explore alternative business
opportunities on behalf of the cooperatives. CSC has invested, with three other
participants, in Seacoast Power LLC, whose wholly-owned subsidiary, Seacoast,
Inc. ("Seacoast"), has executed a six-month power sales contract with INECEL,
the state-owned electric utility in Ecuador. CSC, through a wholly-owned
affiliate, together with the three other participants in Seacoast Power LLC,
have formed Power Ventures LLC (Power Ventures LLC, together with its
affiliates, referred to as "Power Ventures"). Power Ventures owns the generating
assets necessary to fulfill the power sales contract between Seacoast and
INECEL. Under the terms of the contract, INECEL is obligated to make monthly
payments for energy available, as well as fuel used, by Seacoast. Due to
contract disputes, INECEL has not yet remitted contract payments of
approximately $1.3 million and $3.2 million for February and March 1996,
respectively. Accordingly, Seacoast has stopped generating energy until the
disputes are resolved and past due payments are received. Seacoast is attempting
to enforce the contract and is actively working with INECEL to resolve the
contract issues in dispute and to renegotiate a new, longer term power sales
contract with INECEL.

On March 31, 1996, Old Dominion loaned approximately $15.1 million to Seacoast.
This amount, together with other amounts loaned to Seacoast Power LLC by the
other participants in Power Ventures LLC, was used to fund capital investment in
the generating assets owned by Power Ventures and to fund operating expenses.
The note from Seacoast is payable in 90 days at an interest rate of 6.6% and is
payable from the share of the profits generated by the operations and activities
of Power Ventures that accrue to the benefit of Old Dominion and its members.
The note replaces the $13.8 million note from Seacoast dated December 31, 1995.
Management believes that the dispute referred to in Note 2 will be resolved and
the note is collectible.
