Selected Preliminary Unaudited Financial Data for the Year Ended December 31, 2011
Management of Oncor and Oncor Holdings (collectively, the “Companies”) have prepared the selected preliminary financial data below in good faith based upon the most current information available to management. Normal yearly closing and financial reporting processes with respect to such unaudited preliminary financial data have not been fully completed. As a result, the actual financial results could be different from such unaudited preliminary financial data. The Companies’ independent registered public accounting firm has not completed its audits for the year ended December 31, 2011, and has not performed any review procedures with respect to the unaudited preliminary financial data provided below, nor has it expressed any opinion or any other form of assurance on such information.
While the financial data provided is preliminary and subject to change, the Companies’ do not expect actual financial data for the year ended December 31, 2011 to vary materially from the corresponding preliminary amounts provided below.
Oncor’s unaudited preliminary financial data below has been prepared on a basis consistent with Oncor’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, which are included in Oncor’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 that it filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 18, 2011.

Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are not recognized terms under United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and, thus, are non-GAAP financial measures.

EBITDA refers to earnings (net income) before interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in certain EFIH debt covenants) refers to EBITDA adjusted to exclude non-cash items and other adjustments. For more information on EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, see note (a) below.

| (a) | Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are not recognized terms under GAAP and, thus, are non-GAAP financial measures. Oncor does not intend for Adjusted EBITDA (or EBITDA) to be an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity or an alternative to any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, Oncor does not intend for Adjusted EBITDA (or EBITDA) to be used as a measure of free cash flow available for management's discretionary use, as the measure excludes certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and other debt service requirements. Because not all companies use identical calculations, Oncor's presentation of Adjusted EBITDA (and EBITDA) may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies or to other presentations of Adjusted EBITDA previously provided by Oncor. |
| (b) | Purchase accounting adjustments consist of amounts related to the accretion of an adjustment (discount) to regulatory assets resulting from purchase accounting. |
| (c) | Other adjustments consist of amounts related to non-cash items, unusual items and other adjustments allowable under the indentures governing certain of EFIH’s debt. |
