TRIGEN ENERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 1. Basis of Presentation Trigen Energy Corporation (the "Company") develops, owns and operates community energy systems and cogeneration facilities at 13 locations in the United States and Canada. The Company believes that it is the leading commercial owner and operator of community energy systems in North America. A community energy system consists of a central production plant that distributes steam, hot water and/or chilled water to customer buildings through underground distribution pipelines. Steam, hot water and/or chilled water are sold by the Company to over 1,500 customers, including colleges and universities, office buildings, hotels, civic and cultural landmarks, housing complexes, industrial plants and hospitals. Cogenerated electricity produced by the Company is used by the Company in eight of its systems and is sold to one steam customer and to local utilities in three communities. The consolidated financial statements of Trigen Energy Corporation and its subsidiaries presented herein are unaudited. However, such information reflects all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position as of March 31, 1996, and the results of operations and the cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995. The results of operations and cash flows for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 are not indicative of those to be expected for the year ending December 31, 1996. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1995 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Overview The Company's operations are primarily the production and distribution of steam, hot water, electricity and chilled water. Approximately 60% of total revenue is derived from long-term contracts. The Company's heating and cooling revenues and consequently its operating profits are subject to seasonal fluctuation due to peak heating demand in the winter and peak cooling demand in the summer. For the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Company reported net income of $4.2 million or $0.36 per share compared to $3.3 million or $0.29 per share for the comparable 1995 period. Results of Operations Three Months Ended March 31, 1996 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1995 Revenues Revenues were $86.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 1996, an increase of $21.0 million, from $65.2 million in the corresponding period in 1995, due principally to two acquisitions consummated in September 1995, which contributed approximately half of the increase, a colder winter in 1996 compared to 1995 and the increased price of fuel. Operating Expenses The Company's cost of sales includes fuel and consumables, production and operating costs and depreciation expense and is affected primarily by its costs for fuel, chemicals, water and other commodities. Because the Company's rates typically enable it to pass through fuel and most commodity prices, changes in such prices have little impact on operating income. The Company's cost of sales and its operating income are also affected by its efficiency in converting fuel to steam, hot water, electricity and chilled water and its ability to minimize costs through automation and enhanced process control efforts. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues increased from 74.6% of revenues in 1995 to 75.6% of revenues in 1996. Fuel and consumable costs were $47.8 million, or 55.4% of revenues in 1996, compared to $32.5 million, or 49.9 % of revenues in 1995, an increase of $15.3 million. This increase is due to the impact of the two acquisitions, the increased price of fuel and the use of less efficient backup production equipment to meet demand during the periods of extreme cold. Production and operating costs are those costs of operating the Company's facilities other than fuel and consumables, and include labor and supervisory personnel, repair and maintenance costs and plant operating costs. The increase resulting from the two acquisitions was offset by cost savings and labor productivity improvements. Production and operating costs increased to $13.2 million in 1996 from $12.1 million in 1995, and as a percentage of revenues decreased to 15.3% in 1996 compared to 18.6% in 1995. Depreciation expense was $4.2 million in 1996 compared to $4.0 million in 1995, an increase of $0.2 million due predominately to the two acquisitions. General and administrative expenses represent on-site management and other overhead costs incurred for existing operations, as well as the Company's marketing and corporate management costs, and development expenses. General and administrative costs increased to $8.9 million, or 10.3% of revenues in 1996 from $6.5 million or 10.0% of revenues, in 1995. This is primarily due to additional staff and development and marketing costs and the impact of the two acquisitions. Operating Income Operating income was $12.1 million, or 14.1% of revenues, in 1996 compared to $10.0 million, or 15.3% of revenues, in 1995. Increased general and administrative expenses offset by cost savings, primarily from efficiency and labor productivity, higher revenues, and the impact of the two acquisitions, resulted in improved operating income of $2.1 million. Interest Expense; Other Income Interest expense decreased to $4.7 million in 1996 from $5.0 million in 1995, primarily due to lower average interest rates on indebtedness. Income Tax Expense The Company's effective tax rate is determined primarily by the federal statutory rate of 35%, and state and local income taxes. The effective income tax rate of 41.0% is consistent with the rate in 1995. Liquidity and Capital Resources Liquidity The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $24.1 million at March 31, 1996 and $20.2 million at December 31, 1995, an increase of $3.9 million. The Company had short-term indebtedness outstanding of $4.1 million at March 31, 1996 compared to $14.2 million at December 31, 1995, a reduction of $10.1 million. These changes were primarily due to the use of cash on hand at December 31, 1995 and cash generated from operations during the quarter. Certain of the Company's debt agreements restrict payments by its subsidiaries, which are the primary obligors, to the Company unless the payments are for specified purposes or the subsidiary meets certain financial covenants. Restricted cash and cash equivalents of $16.0 million at March 31, 1996 included $6.4 million for debt service and reserve funds, $2.6 million for operations and maintenance reserves, $3.7 million available for subsidiary operating purposes and $3.3 million for certain construction projects. Restricted funds may be invested only in certain securities. At March 31, 1996, the Company had unused lines of credit available consisting of $10.1 million under a United Thermal Corporation ("UTC") revolving credit facility and $39.5 million under a corporate revolving credit facility. On February 20, 1996, the Company declared a dividend of $.035 per share of common stock to holders of record as of March 29, 1995, payable April 15, 1996. Cash Flow During the three months ended March 31, 1996, cash provided by operating activities was $16.7 million compared to $12.4 million for the comparable period in 1995. Net cash used in investing activities was $8.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 1996 primarily due to capital expenditures of $6.4 million and the initial equity investment of $2.0 million in the Grays Ferry Cogeneration Facility. Net cash used in financing activities was $4.2 million in 1996 principally reflecting debt repayments. Debt At March 31, 1996, the Company's long-term debt (including the current portion) was $236.2 million or 61.9% of total capital, at a weighted average annual interest rate of approximately 7.07% (based on 3 month LIBOR of 5.47% per year) and an average remaining maturity of 6.9 years. Certain of the Company's debt is variable rate or rate capped. Based upon the debt balances at March 31, 1996, a change in the LIBOR rate of .25% would have a corresponding change in interest expense of approximately $300,000 per year when three month LIBOR is under 6.25% ranging to approximately $100,000 per year when three month LIBOR is over 7.25%. Future Capital Expenditures The Company's planned capital expenditures for upgrades, expansions, environmental matters and other improvements are material. The Company believes that cash provided by operations net of debt service, cash balances at March 31, 1996 and available credit facilities will be sufficient to finance its capital program and several new development projects. On January 18, 1996 the Company acquired Ewing Power Systems, Inc. for $1.0 million of common stock. On March 11, 1996, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company became a one-third partner in the Grays Ferry Cogeneration Facility. Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, in addition to its initial equity investment, the Company is required to contribute $10 million when construction is completed, which is expected in the last quarter of 1997.

Survival. The right to make a claim for breach of the representations and warranties made as of the Closing Date shall survive the Closing Date for a period of three years from and after the Closing Date, with the exception of those representations and warranties set out in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 4.1, 4.2, 4.8, 5. 1, and 5.2, as to which the right to make a claim shall survive for a period as is provided under applicable Pennsylvania law. Any claim by the Purchaser for indemnification under Section 13 for a breach of any representation or warranty made as of the Closing Date, or by the Partners under Section 14 for a breach of any representation or warranty made as of the Closing Date, must be made on or prior to the date on which the survival period for such representation or warranty expires, it being understood that the indemnity obligations of the Purchaser and the Partners, as the case may be, with respect to claims that are asserted on or prior to such expiration date shall survive such expiration date. 13. Indemnification of the Purchaser. 13.1 Indemnification of the Purchaser. The Partners shall, up to an aggregate maximum of $3,000,000 per Partner, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser (and its directors, officers, employees and affiliates) from and against any and all "Purchaser Losses" as hereafter defined. "Purchaser Losses" means any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs incurred (i) by the Partnership where the result is a diminution of the Fair Value (as defined in the Restated Partnership Agreement) of the Purchaser's interest in the Partnership including, without limitation, a diminution in cash distributions, or (ii) by the Purchaser, that results in either case, from the breach of a representation or warranty of a Partner under this Agreement. The $3,000,000 limit per Partner shall apply even if the aggregate indemnity obligation of such Partner for joint representations and warranties made under Section 3 herein, plus its liability for individual representations and warranties made under Section 4, exceeds $3,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no indemnification obligation of any Partner for Purchaser Losses shall arise under this Section 13.1 until such time as the Purchaser Losses, in the aggregate, exceed $300,000. 13.2 Notice of Claims by the Purchaser. Within ten business days after the Purchaser receives notice of any claim, in respect of which the Partners may be liable under this Section 13, the Purchaser shall give written notice thereof to the Partners. The Purchaser may at its option give notice and claim indemnity under this Section 13 as soon as a claim has been threatened by a third party, regardless of whether a loss has been suffered, so long as the Purchaser shall in good faith determine that such claim is not frivolous and that the Purchaser may be liable or otherwise incur a loss as a result thereof and shall give notice of such determination to the Partners. The Purchaser shall permit the Partners, at the sole option and expense of the Partners, to assume the defense of any such claim by counsel satisfactory to the Purchaser and to settle or otherwise dispose of the same. In any such event, the Purchaser will cooperate with the Partners and may at all times participate in such defense, at its own expense; provided, however, that the Partners shall not, in defense of any such claim, except with the prior written consent of the Purchaser, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include the giving by the claimant or plaintiff in question to the Purchaser a release of all liabilities in respect of such claims, or that does not result solely in the payment of money damages by the Partners. 13.3 Purchaser's Remedy Upon Dissolution. As Purchaser's exclusive remedy for Purchaser Losses under Section 13.1, Purchaser shall have the right, upon liquidation of the assets of the Partnership pursuant to Section 24 of the Restated Partnership Agreement, to receive priority payment of any Net Indemnity Obligations, as defined below, which are owed to it by either Adwin and/or O'Brien pursuant to the provisions of Section 13.1. For purposes of this Section, "Net Indemnity Obligations" shall mean all Purchaser Losses under Section 13.1, the amount of which shall have been established by mutual agreement or a final, nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, and which shall represent the excess of the indemnity obligations of Adwin and/or O'Brien owed Purchaser under Section 13.1, over any indemnity obligations owed by Purchaser to Adwin and/or O'Brien pursuant to Section 14.1. Such "Net Indemnity Obligations" shall be deducted from the Unreimbursed Development Costs otherwise due Adwin and/or O'Brien under Section 24 of the Restated Partnership Agreement, and shall be paid prior to the reimbursement of such Unreimbursed Development Costs due Adwin and/or O'Brien, pursuant to the provisions of Section 24 of the Restated Partnership Agreement. The indemnity cap, calculation of Net Indemnity Obligation, and calculation of Net Indemnity Amount shall be applied and made on a per Partner basis, and neither Partner shall be liable for the other Partners' indemnity obligation. In the event of a dispute over any indemnity claims of Purchaser, the parties agree to mediate the dispute initially pursuant to the Commercial Mediation Rules of the American Arbitration Association, but if such mediation efforts have not produced a settlement within ninety (90) days, any party may refer the matter to a court of competent jurisdiction for resolution. 14. Indemnification of the Partners. 14.1 Indemnification of the Partners. The Purchaser shall, up to an aggregate maximum of $3,000,000, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Partners (and their respective directors, officers, employees and affiliates) from and against any and all "Partner Losses" as hereafter defined. "Partner Losses" means any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs and expenses incurred (i) by the Partnership where the result is a diminution of the Fair Value (as defined in the Restated Partnership Agreement) of the Partners' interest in the Partnership including, without limitation, a diminution in cash distributions, or (ii) by the Partners, that results in either case, from the breach of a representation or warranty of the Purchaser under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no indemnification obligation of the Purchaser for Partner Losses shall arise under this Section 14.1 until such time as the Partner Losses, in the aggregate, exceed $300,000. 14.2 Notice of Claims by the Partners. Within ten business days after the Partners receive notice of any claim, in respect of which the Purchaser may be liable under this Section 14, the Partners shall give written notice thereof to the Purchaser. The Partners and the Partnership may at their option give notice and claim indemnity under this Section 14 as soon as a claim has been threatened by a third party, regardless of whether an actual loss has been suffered, so long as the Partners shall in good faith determine that such claim is not frivolous and that the Partners may be liable or otherwise incur a loss as a result thereof and shall give notice of such determination to the Purchaser. The Partners shall permit the Purchaser, at its sole option and expense, to assume the defense of any such claim by counsel satisfactory to the Partners and to settle or otherwise dispose of the same. In any such event, the Partners will cooperate with the Purchaser and may at all times participate in such defense, at its own expense; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not, in defense of any such claim, except with the prior written consent of the Partners, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include the giving by the claimant or plaintiff in question to the Partners a release of all liabilities in respect of such claims, or that does not result solely in the payment of money damages by the Purchaser. 14.3 The Partners' Remedy Upon Dissolution. As the Partners' exclusive remedy for Partner Losses under Section 14.1, the Partners shall have the right, upon liquidation of the assets of the Partnership pursuant to Section 24 of the Restated Partnership Agreement, to collect from Purchaser's share of distributions under Section 24.01(e) of the Restated Partnership Agreement any "Net Indemnity Amounts Owed by Purchaser," as defined below, owed to the Partners by Purchaser pursuant to the provisions of Section 14.1. For the purposes of this Section, "Net Indemnity Amounts Owed by Purchaser" shall mean the excess of all Partner Losses under Section 14.1 owed to the Partners by Purchaser over any indemnity amounts owed by the Partners to Purchaser pursuant to the provisions of Section 13.1. Such "Net Indemnity Amounts Owed by Purchaser" shall be established through either mutual consent of the parties, or by a final, nonappealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction, and once established, shall be deducted from the Capital Account of Purchaser, pursuant to the provisions of Section 24.01(e) of the Restated Partnership Agreement. In the event of a dispute over any indemnity claims of the Partners, the parties agree to mediate the dispute initially pursuant to the Commercial Mediation Rules of the American Arbitration Association, but if such mediation efforts have not produced a settlement within ninety (90) days, any party may refer the matter to a court of competent jurisdiction for resolution. 15.
