ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

Reliant Energy Mid-Atlantic Power Holdings, LLC, together with its affiliates
and subsidiaries (collectively, REMA) is providing information concerning a
required restatement of its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q (Interim Financial
Statements) for the quarters ended June 30, 2001 and September 30, 2001. As a
result, the previously issued Interim Financial Statements for these periods
should not be relied upon.

DISCUSSION OF ACCOUNTING RESTATEMENT:

A subsidiary of Reliant Resources, Inc. (Reliant Resources) entered into
derivative transactions on behalf of REMA which, on an aggregated basis at
inception, had positive fair value. For the 2001 period, the contracts resulted
in net cash outflows which will be more than offset through contractually
increased net cash inflows in 2002. REMA accounted for these contracts as cash
flow hedges of forecasted transactions pursuant to Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities," as amended. REMA initially accounted for these contracts by
recognizing the fair value of the derivative as an asset or liability and
recognizing the corresponding amount in accumulated other comprehensive income.
As cash flow hedges, the amount recognized in accumulated other comprehensive
income would have been recognized in earnings when the forecasted transactions
occur.

On February 5, 2002, Reliant Resources announced that it was restating its
earnings for the second and third quarters of 2001. The restatement relates to a
correction in accounting treatment for a series of four structured transactions
that were inappropriately accounted for as cash flow hedges for the period May
2001 through September 2001. The derivative transactions mentioned above were
part of the four structured transactions that gave rise to the Reliant Resources
restatement. As a result, REMA reevaluated its accounting for the derivative
transactions entered into on its behalf by the subsidiary of Reliant Resources.

REMA now believes these derivative transactions should have been recorded as a
capital contribution of a non-trading derivative asset that had positive fair
value at inception. Therefore, REMA has now recorded these transactions as a
capital contribution resulting in the elimination of previously recorded
accumulated other comprehensive income and the reversal of previously recognized
losses related to these derivative transactions. In addition, in contemplation
of one of the structured transactions referred to above, in August 2001, a
subsidiary of Reliant Resources, on behalf of REMA, entered into forward
contracts to buy and sell natural gas, a portion of which was inappropriately
recorded in the fourth quarter of 2001. REMA has also eliminated previously
recorded accumulated other comprehensive income recognized in connection with
these transactions as of September 30, 2001.

As a result, REMA's Interim Financial Statements as of June 30, 2001 and
September 30, 2001, will be restated from amounts previously reported to
appropriately account for the transactions described above. Therefore, REMA will
report a decrease in net loss as compared to net loss shown in the previously
reported Interim Financial Statements filed on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
June 30, 2001 of $16.3 million and an increase in net income as compared to net
income shown in the previously reported Interim Financial Statements filed on
Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2001 of $17.8 million.

For additional information regarding the foregoing transactions, reference is
made to the Current Report on Form 8-K of Reliant Resources, dated the date here
of and filed concurrently herewith (File No. 1-16455).
