PT PAITON ENERGY
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
31 DECEMBER 2004, 2003 AND 2002
(In thousands of US Dollars, except per share amounts)
1. General
PT Paiton Energy (the "Company") is an Indonesian domiciled company located at Menara Batavia 8th floor, Jalan K.H. Mas Mansyur Kav.126, Jakarta, which was established within the framework of Foreign Capital Investment Laws No. 1 year 1967 as amended by Law No. 11 year 1970 based on deed of notary public Sutjipto SH No. 64 dated 11 February 1994 with the amendments effected by deed of the same notary public No. 56 dated 11 January 1995. These deeds were approved by the Minister of Justice under decision letter No. C2-1-682.HT.01.01.Th.95 dated 6 February 1995. The Company's Articles of Association were most recently amended by deed of the same notary public No. 50 dated 20 November 1998; this amendment changed the name of the Company and increased authorized capital. This deed was approved by the Minister of Justice under decision letter No. C-2340.HT.01.04.Th.99 dated 3 February 1999 and published in Supplement No. 4853 to State Gazette No. 64 dated 10 August 1999.
In accordance with Article 3 of the Articles of Association, approval by the Capital Investment Coordination Board and the Power Purchase Agreement (the "PPA"), as amended, the Company's objective and purpose is to engage in any business and activity in the sector of electric power supply, and to build, own and operate a coal-fired power generating facility (the "Project") consisting of two units located in East Java.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Presented below are the significant accounting policies adopted in preparing the financial statements of the Company, which are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical costs.
The statements of cash flows are prepared based on the indirect method by classifying cash flows on the basis of operating, investing and financing activities. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, cash includes cash on hand, cash in banks and short-term investments with maturity of three months or less, net of overdrafts and excluding restricted cash.
Figures in the financial statements are stated in thousands of US Dollars unless otherwise noted.
The books and records of the Company are maintained in United States Dollars as permitted under the license granted by the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia through letter No. KEP-194/PJ.42/1994 dated 29 September 1994 since a majority of the Company's cash flows, selling prices, expenses and financing are denominated in US Dollars.
Transactions denominated in currencies other than US Dollars are converted into US Dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. At the balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities in currencies other than US Dollars are translated into US Dollars at the exchange rates prevailing at that date. Realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations are reflected in the statement of income.
11
Revenues in 2004 and 2003 were recognized upon the availability of net dependable capacity and the delivery of net electrical output to PT PLN (Persero) ("PLN"), the Indonesian Government-owned electric utility company, and recorded on the basis of prices determined under certain formula set forth in the PPA, as amended. PLN is obligated to pay for net dependable capacity based upon plant availability. PLN is obligated to pay for net electrical output as it is delivered.
Revenue for the year ended 31 December 2002 represents the amounts billed to PLN under the Binding Term Sheet for energy delivered in 2001 and 2002, plus the recoverable value of arrearages relating to capacity charges and fixed operating costs under the PPA which therefore had not been fully paid by PLN.
Fuel inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined based on the weighted-average method.
Plant and equipment are stated at cost, including interest on funds borrowed to finance construction of the Project, less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful life:
|
2004 and 2003 |
2002 |
||
---|---|---|---|---|
Plant assets and facilities |
38 years |
30 years |
||
Furniture and equipment | 4 years | 4 years |
Effective 1 January 2003, the Company changed its accounting estimates relating to depreciation. The estimated useful life for plant assets and facilities were extended by eight years. The change was made as a result of the amendment of the PPA, the term for which was extended to 31 December 2040. The extension of the term of PPA, as amended, results in the Company being able to utilize the plant for an additional eight years. The Company believes that the plant assets and facilities have economic useful life greater than 38 years from 1 January 2003, based on the existing plant design. As a result of the changes in plant assets and facilities' useful life, depreciation expenses for the year 2003 decreased by US$21,788.
Certain of the Company's plant assets and facilities require major maintenance on a periodic basis. These costs are expensed as incurred.
Long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment, and purchased intangibles subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated.
12
Costs incurred for the design, construction and installation of the Special Facilities in accordance with the terms of the PPA are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over 38 years in 2004 and 2003, and 30 years in 2002.
Effective 1 January 2003, the Company changed its accounting estimates relating to amortization of the Special Facilities. The estimated useful lives for the Special Facilities were extended by eight years. The change was made as a result of the amendment of the PPA, the term for which was extended to 31 December 2040. The extension of the term of the PPA, as amended, results in the Company being able to utilize the Special Facilities for an additional eight years. As a result of the change, amortization expense for the year 2003 decreased by US$2,845.
Costs incurred to obtain financing are deferred and amortized as an adjustment to interest expense on a basis which approximates the effective interest rate method over the terms of the relating financing agreements. Periodic commitment fees incurred subsequent to obtaining financing are recorded as interest expense.
In 2003, the Company restructured its senior debt facilities involving only the modification of terms. The restructured debt has been accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 15, "Accounting by Debtors and Creditors for Troubled Debt Restructurings".
The Company enters into interest rate swap agreement in its management of interest cost exposures. The interest rate swaps, which hedge interest rates on certain indebtedness, involve the exchange of floating rate for fixed rate interest payment obligations over the life of the agreements without the exchange of the underlying notional amounts. The Company is exposed to loss if one or more of the counter-parties defaults. Consequently, the Company's exposure to credit loss is significantly less than the contracted amount.
On 1 January 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" and SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, an amendment of SFAS 133". SFAS No. 133, as amended requires that all derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at their respective fair values.
On the date a derivative contract is entered into, the Company designates the derivative as either a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or of an unrecognized firm commitment (fair value hedge), a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (cash flow hedge), a foreign-currency fair-value or cash-flow hedge (foreign currency hedge), or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. For all hedging relationships, the Company formally documents the hedging relationship and its risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge, the hedging instrument, the item, the nature of the risk being hedged, how the hedging instrument's effectiveness in offsetting the hedged risk will be assessed, and a description of the method of measuring ineffectiveness. This process includes linking all derivatives that are designated as fair-value, cash-flow or foreign-currency hedges to specific assets and liabilities on the balance sheet or to specific firm commitments or forecasted transactions.
The Company also formally assesses, both at the hedge's inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting
13
changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items. When it is determined that a derivative is not highly effective as a hedge or that it has ceased to be a highly effective hedge, the Company discontinues hedge accounting prospectively.
Changes in the fair value of a derivative that is highly effective and that is designated and qualifies as a fair-value hedge, along with the loss or gain on the hedged asset or liability or unrecognized firm commitment of the hedged item that is attributable to the hedged risk, are recorded in earnings. Changes in the fair value of a derivative that is highly effective and that is designated and qualifies as a cash-flow hedge are recorded in other comprehensive income to the extent that the derivative is effective as a hedge, until earnings are affected by the variability in cash flows of the designated hedged item. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are highly effective as hedges and that are designated and qualify as foreign-currency hedges are recorded in either earnings or other comprehensive income, depending on whether the hedge transaction is a fair-value hedge or a cash-flow hedge. However, if a derivative is used as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation, its changes in fair value, to the extent effective as a hedge, are recorded in the cumulative translation adjustments account within other comprehensive income. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of a derivative instrument that qualifies as either a fair-value hedge or a cash-flow hedge is reported in earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivative trading instruments are reported in current period earnings.
Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity (net assets) of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investment by owners and distributions to owners. For the Company, other comprehensive income (loss) consists of changes in the fair market value of derivatives that qualify as cash flow hedges.
The Company applies Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 21, "Interest on Receivables and Payables", to account for its receivable for the restructuring settlement payments from PLN. The Company has reflected the present value of the restructuring settlement payments. Amortization of the discount is reported as interest income in the statement of income.
Employee benefits related to retirement, severance, service compensation payments and other benefits are recognized when they accrue to the employee. The liabilities recognized in the financial statements are based on Manpower Law No. 13/2003.
Current service cost is expensed in the current period. Past service cost, actuarial adjustments and the impact of changes in actuarial assumptions for existing employees are recognized as expense or income over the estimated service lives of the existing employees.
Deferred taxes are provided based on the asset-liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is probable that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
14
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Effective 1 January 2003, the Company adopted SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations". The standard requires entities to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred. When the liability is initially recorded, the entity capitalizes the cost by increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Over time, the liability is increased to its present value each period, and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. Upon-settlement of the liability, an entity either settles the obligation for its recorded amount or incurs a gain or loss upon settlement. The adoption of this standard had no impact on the Company's financial statements.
In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No.4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections", which supersedes previous guidance for reporting gains and losses from extinguishment of debt and accounting for leases, among other things. The provisions of the Statement related to the rescission of Statement No. 4 are applied in fiscal years beginning after 15 May 2002. The provisions of the Statement related to Statement No. 13 were effective for transactions occurring after 15 May 2002. The adoption of this standard had no effect on the Company's financial statements.
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". The standard requires that liabilities for costs associated with exit or disposal activities initiated after 31 December 2002 be recognized when incurred, rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. The Company adopted this standard effective 1 January 2003. The adoption of this standard had no effect on the Company's financial statements.
In December 2002, FASB Statement No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based CompensationTransition and Disclosure", an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123, was issued. This Statement provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements. The Company does not have stock-based compensation and therefore adoption of the standard had no effect on the Company's financial statements.
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". This statement amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133. The amendment reflects decisions made by the FASB and the Derivatives Implementation Group (DIG) process in connection with issues raised about the application of SFAS No. 133. Generally, the provisions of SFAS No. 149 are applied prospectively for contracts entered into or modified after 30 June 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after 30 June 2003. SFAS No. 149 provisions that resulted from the DIG process that became effective in fiscal quarters beginning before 15 June 2003 will continue to be applied based upon their original effective dates. The adoption of this standard had no impact on the Company's financial statements.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity". This statement establishes standards for the classification and measurement of certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities
15
and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability or asset, as appropriate. SFAS No. 150 is effective for all freestanding financial instruments entered into or modified after 31 May 2003; otherwise, it is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after 15 June 2003. The adoption of this standard had no impact on the Company's financial statements.
In December 2003, SFAS No. 132 (revised), "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits" was issued. SFAS No.132 (revised) prescribes employers' disclosures about pension plans and other postretirement benefit plans; it does not change the measurement or recognition of those plans. The statement retains and revises the disclosure requirements contained in the original SFAS No.132. It also requires additional disclosures about the assets, obligations, cash flows, and net periodic benefit cost of defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement benefit plans. For domestic plans, for all new provisions except for estimated future benefit payments disclosures, effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2003; for foreign plans and nonpublic entities, for all new provisions and for estimated future benefit payments disclosures for all entities, effective for fiscal years ending after June 15, 2004; and for interim-period disclosures, effective for quarters beginning after December 15, 2003.
In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. This interpretation establishes reporting requirements to be made by a guarantor about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of this interpretation are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantee issued or modified after 31 December 2002. The adoption of this standard had no impact on the Company's financial statements.
In December 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation ("FIN") No. 46 (revised December 2003), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("VIEs"), which addresses how a business enterprise should evaluate whether it has a controlling financial interest in an entity through means other than voting rights and accordingly should consolidate the entity. FIN 46 (revised) ("FIN 46R") replaces FASB Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidated of Variable Interest Entities", which was issued in January 2003. The Company will be required to apply FIN 46R to variable interests in VIEs created after 31 December 2003. For variable interests in VIEs created before 1 January 2004, the Interpretation will be applied starting 1 January 2005. For any VIEs that must be consolidated under FIN 46R that were created before 1 January 2004, the assets, liabilities and non-controlling interests of the VIE initially would be measured at their carrying amounts with any difference between the net amount added to the balance sheet and any previously recognized interest being recognized as the cumulative effect of an accounting change. If determining the carrying amounts is not practicable, fair value at the date FIN 46R first applies may be used to measure the assets, liabilities and non-controlling interest of the VIE. The adoption of FIN 46R did not have material effect on the Company's financial statements.

4. Long-term Receivable
As discussed in Note 14a, the Company and PLN entered into the amendments to the PPA, which among other matters provides for restructuring settlement payments for the settlement of arrearages of amounts billed by the Company to PLN. The Company has reflected the present value of the restructuring settlement payments, based on a discount rate of 10%, as a long-term receivable totaling US$443,962 (net of current maturities of US$3,416) and US$447,378 (net of current maturities of US$3,092) at 31 December 2004 and 2003, respectively. The Company billed restructuring settlement payments aggregating US$48,000 in both 2004 and 2003. Interest income recognized on this long-term receivable totaled US$44,908 and US$45,200 in 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Senior debt facilities
On 14 February 2003, the Company entered into a certain second amended and restated common agreement (the "Common Agreement"), with the following lenders: The Export-Import Bank of the United States ("USEXIM"), Japan Bank for International Cooperation ("JBIC"), as successors in interest to the Export-Import Bank of Japan ("JEXIM") and Overseas Private Investment Corporation ("OPIC"), Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, N.A. (as the Commercial Bank Tranche A Facility Agent and Indenture Trustee), ING Capital LLC (as the USEXIM Construction Facility Agent), JP Morgan Chase Bank (as the Trustee), Mizuho Corporate Bank, Ltd. (as the Collateral Agent) and JP Morgan Chase Bank (as Intercreditor Agent).
The principal effect of the Common Agreement is to establish certain uniform terms which are applicable to all senior debt facilities provided such as funding, payments and prepayments, conditions precedent, representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default. Separate financing agreements for the senior debt facilities have been entered into with each of the lenders who were to provide an aggregate of US$1,820,000. The senior debt facilities are comprised of variable-rate-based loans and fixed-rate-based loans. The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements on a portion of its debt to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on its floating rate long-term debt as disclosed in Note 10.
20
The obligations of the Company are collateralized by pledges of all of the Company's capital stock and liens on and security interests in substantially all of the Company's assets (including plant assets), its rights under various agreements, all of the Company's revenues and all insurance proceeds payable to the Company. The financing agreements contain restrictions, which, among other items, require the Company to comply with various administrative requirements. The agreements with lenders also require the Company to pay certain fees.
Interest on loans is due on a quarterly basis, in arrears, and payments coincide with the scheduled principal payments dates. Repayment of the loan principal was originally due over a period of twelve years commencing from 1999. None of the scheduled repayments of principal totaling approximately US$453,761 as of 31 December 2002 were made during 1999, 2000 and 2001, and only US$20,000 was repaid in 2002.
In response to PLN's failure to pay invoices submitted to it under the PPA (see Note 14a), on 15 October 1999, the Company entered into an Interim Arrangement Agreement (the "Interim Arrangement"), as amended on 30 December 2002 with the senior lenders. Under this agreement, the parties agreed to enter into certain waivers pursuant to the Financing Agreements, and amendments to the Common Agreement, in order to establish an interim arrangement under the Financing Agreements. These waivers included events of default that may exist solely as a result of the failure of the Company to repay principal amounts on the scheduled dates therefore which occur during the term of the Interim Arrangement. Interest and fees continued to be paid on a timely basis. This Interim Arrangement terminated on 13 February 2003, when the Company and all the lenders reached an agreement on restructuring the terms of the senior debt facilities as disclosed in Note 15.
In addition, pursuant to the terms of section 8.3 of the Common Agreement, the lenders waived all defaults, Events of Default and Potential Events of Default existing under the Financing Documents as of 13 February 2003. No interest was incurred in 2003 and 2002.
As discussed in Note 15, on 14 February 2003, the Company and its lenders executed the Second Amended and Restated Common Agreement. The terms and conditions of the Company's senior debt facilities pursuant to the provisions of the Second Amended Restated Common Agreement can be summarized as follows:

Senior debt funding loan
On 28 March 1996, Paiton Energy Funding B.V., a Netherlands corporation (the "Issuer") issued US$180,000 of senior secured bonds (the "Bonds") to certain institutional investors. The net proceeds from the sale of the bonds were used by the Issuer to acquire certain senior indebtedness which consisted of loans made to the Company by various commercial banks and financial institutions under the Commercial Banks FacilityTranche A in place as of 31 March 1996. Upon closing of the offering for the Bonds, such senior indebtedness was replaced by the Senior Debt Funding Loan and the payment terms and the interest rate which applied to such indebtedness were amended to contain terms which are identical to the Bonds. The Bonds bear interest at 9.34% per annum with interest payable on a quarterly basis commencing in May 1996. Principal payments on the Bonds commence in 2008, and the Bonds mature in 2014.
The Company has unconditionally guaranteed the payment obligations of the Issuer in respect of the Bonds. The Senior Debt Funding Loan and the guarantee will be secured, on a pari passu basis with the other senior debt, by pledges of the Company's capital shares and liens on, and security interests in, substantially all of the assets of the Company. The maximum potential amount of undiscounted future payments that the Company could be required to make under the guarantee is US$180,000, which is the current carrying amount of the Senior Debt Funding Loan reflected in these financial statements.
Subordinated loans
On 31 March 1995, the Company entered into a subordinated loan agreement with Edison Mission Energy Asia Pte., Ltd., Paiton Power Financing B.V., and Capital Indonesia Power I C.V. (the "Subordinated Lenders"). Each of the Subordinated Lenders is affiliated with shareholders of the Company. Under this agreement, the Subordinated Lender or their affiliates are obligated to make
22
subordinated loans to the Company in a maximum aggregate amount of US$487,438. The subordinated loans bear no interest prior to the last day of the availability period (such day has been established as 15 October 1999). After the availability period, interest on the outstanding principal amount is determined at 15%, per annum. The repayment of any outstanding principal will not commence until 27 years after the completion of the Project. The Company incurred interest of US$61,095 and US$47,609 for the year 2004 and the period from 1 April to 31 December 2003, respectively. The Subordinated Lenders cancelled the Company's interest obligation for the three-month period ended 31 March 2003 and for the years ended 31 December 2002 and 2001 on or before the commencement of each of the respective periods.
Series B subordinated loans
In 2001, the Company entered into the 1999 Series B Subordinated Loan Agreement with the Subordinated Lenders. Under this agreement, the Subordinated Lenders shall make loans to the Company in a maximum aggregate amount of US$300,000. The 1999 Series B Subordinated Loans bear no interest until such time as the Company and Subordinated Lenders agree otherwise in writing. The repayment of any outstanding principal is not required to commence until 27 years after the completion of the Project. No interest was incurred in 2004, 2003 and 2002.
The subordinated loans referred to in the two preceding paragraphs are subordinated to the senior debt facilities provided under the Common Agreement and the Senior Debt Funding Loan.
The following table presents the approximate annual maturities of long-term debt for the five years after 31 December 2004:

10. Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements on a portion of its debt to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on its floating rate long-term debt. Under the agreements, the Company will receive or pay interest on the differential of notional amounts based on the London Interbank Offering Rate ("LIBOR") and the same notional amounts based on a weighted average fixed interest rate of 7.3% from July 1995 until August 1999 and 9% from August 1999 through August 2011. At 31 December 2004, LIBOR was 2.29% per annum. Payments are made at the end of calculation periods (scheduled three-month periods) which commence primarily in 1995 and 1999 and end in 1999 and 2011. The notional amounts vary over the calculation periods; however, they were intended to correspond with anticipated borrowing levels over the period of the long-term financing. All interest rate swap agreements continue to be fully effective after the restructuring of debt discussed in Note 15.
In accordance with SFAS No. 133, as amended, the Company recorded a liability for the loss on these interest rate swap agreements of US$52,704 and US$72,915, before income taxes, as of 31 December 2004 and 2003, respectively. This amount has been reflected in other comprehensive loss
23
as the Company has designated these agreements as cash flow hedges. The estimated unrealized losses of US$52,704 at 31 December 2004 include approximately US$17,822 that is expected to be reclassified into earnings in 2005.
Under the agreements, the aggregate notional amount was at its highest level (approximately US$1,100,000) in 1999. As of 31 December 2004, the total notional amount subject to the swap agreements totaled approximately US$315,000, bearing fixed interest at a weighted average rate of approximately 9%.
By using derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates, the Company exposes itself to credit risk and market risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. When the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owes the Company, which creates credit risk for the Company. When the fair value of a derivative contract is negative, the Company owes the counterparty and, therefore, it does not possess credit risk. The Company minimizes the credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with creditworthy counterparties whose credit quality are reviewed regularly.
Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of financial instruments that results from a change in interest rates. The market risk associated with interest-rate contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken.

11. Fair Value Of Financial Instruments
The following disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments is made in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments". The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company, using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is necessarily required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable to related parties the carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short duration of these instruments.
Long-term receivable the fair value of the long-term receivable is estimated based on discounting the future cash flows using the interest rate at which a similar restructuring settlement payment would be agreed with a customer with a similar credit rating similar remaining maturity.
Long-term loans the fair value of long-term loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered to the Company for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities by the Company's bankers.
24
Interest rate swap contracts the fair value of interest rate swaps (used for hedging purposes) is the estimated amount the Company would receive (or pay) to terminate the swap agreements at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and the current creditworthiness of the swap counterparties.

Realization of the Company's deferred tax assets is dependent upon its profitable operations. Although realization is not assured, the Company believes that it is more probable that these deferred tax assets will be realized through the offset of future taxable income. Despite all the amount of deferred tax assets is considered realizable, however, it could be reduced if actual future taxable income is lower than estimated.
Under the Indonesian tax laws, the Company submits its tax returns on the basis of self-assessment. The taxation authorities may assess or amend taxes within ten years after the date the tax became payable. The Company is, and may in the future be, under examination by the Indonesian tax authority with respect to positions taken in connection with the filing of tax returns. Matters raised upon audit may involve substantial amounts, which, if resolved unfavorably, an event not currently anticipated, could possibly be material. However, in the Company's opinion, it is remote that the resolution of any such matters will have a material adverse effect upon the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
14. Commitments And Contingencies
On 12 February 1994, the Power Purchase Agreement (as amended as of 28 June 2002, the "PPA"), was entered into by the Company and PLN. Under the PPA, as amended, the Company is responsible for arranging the design, engineering, supply and construction of the Project as well as the operation and maintenance of the power generating units and associated common and shared facilities.
The Company has constructed, owns and operates the plant facilities at a site provided by PLN which is located at Paiton, East Java. The Company is obligated to pay PLN Rp 160 million (approximately US$17 as of 31 December 2004) annually for the right to use the site.
Upon commercial operation of the Project, the Company is obligated to make available to PLN the net electrical output of the Project's plant facilities, which output will be purchased by PLN at amounts determined under certain formula set forth in the PPA. The amounts to be paid by PLN for the purchase of net dependable capacity, net electrical output, emergency output and other items
27
provided for within the PPA, may be adjusted to ensure that the Company has the same net, after tax economic return should a triggering event occur. Triggering events include but are not limited to the adoption, enactment, or application of, or any change in the interpretation or application of any legal requirements of any governmental instrumentality of the Republic of Indonesia which has or will result in material cost or savings to the Company of producing electricity.
The term of the PPA, commenced on 12 February 1994 and will expire on 31 December 2040, unless terminated earlier in accordance with the terms of the PPA, as amended.
Under the PPA, the electricity unit price to be paid for net dependable capacity and net electrical output consists of two parts, the capacity payment (which includes Component A for capital cost recovery, and Component B for fixed operation and maintenance cost recovery) and the energy payment (which includes Component C for fuel and Component D for variable operation and maintenance cost recovery). In addition to the two-part electricity unit price, supplemental payments shall be payable in the case of emergency output, start-up fuel costs attributable to PLN actions and net electrical output prior to commission date.
The electricity unit price is comprised of foreign currency and non-foreign currency portions which essentially represents US Dollars and Rupiah, respectively. The majority of revenues earned based on the unit price are denominated in US Dollars.
In May 1999, the Company notified PLN that the first 615 MW unit of the Project had achieved commercial operation under terms of the PPA, as amended, and, in July 1999, that the second 615 MW unit of the Project had similarly achieved such commercial operation. Because of the economic downturn, PLN was experiencing low electricity demand and PLN had, through February 2000, been dispatching the Paiton plant to zero. Pending completion of discussions to amend and restructure the original PPA (prior to its amendment), PLN and the Company entered into various interim agreements, under which fixed and energy payments were agreed.
On 28 June 2002, the Company and PLN entered into the Amendment to Power Purchase Agreement ("PPAA"). Under the PPAA, both parties agreed to amend certain provisions of the original PPA and to set out certain other matters in connection with such amendments. On 23 December 2002, the Company and PLN signed the Certificate of Effectiveness for the PPAA, thus, effecting the amendments to the original PPA. Previously, the Company and PLN had entered into a Binding Term Sheet, dated as of 14 December 2001 and effective as of 1 January 2002, to set forth the commercial terms of agreement on the principal amendments to the original PPA, including among other things changing the term of the Original PPA, and providing for Restructuring Settlement Payments ("RSP") for the settlement of arrearages.
Under the PPA, as amended, the Company is to be paid for capacity and energy charges, as well as a monthly RSP covering arrears owed by PLN as well as settlement of other claims. The monthly RSP is US$4,000 and is payable over a period of 30 years commencing on 1 January 2002 as disclosed in Note 4.
The Company entered into a turnkey engineering, procurement and construction contract (the "EPC Contract") dated 10 February 1995 with a consortium of companies (the "Contractor") which include Mitsui & Co., Ltd., a company which has an affiliation with one of the Company's shareholders. Under the EPC Contract, the Contractor was obligated to provide to the Company design, engineering, procurement, construction, start-up testing and commissioning services for the Project's plant and special facilities. The total price to be paid to the Contractor was approximately US$1,800,000. Services under the EPC contract commenced in 1995 and were substantially completed in 1999.
28
The Company was in arbitration proceedings with the Contractor carrying out construction work at the Company's project site arising out of a slope failure at the site. Initial awards were rendered establishing that the Contractor was not responsible for the slope failure and are, therefore, entitled to certain costs incurred in connection with the slope failure. The Contractor applied to the Arbitral Tribunal for a Partial Final Award and on 7 December 1999, the Tribunal issued a Provisional Award totaling US$15,000, which was paid (less 2% withholding tax) by the Company to the Contractor in December 1999. On 5 January 2001, Contractor and the Company's respective counsel jointly advised the Arbitral Tribunal of the parties' fully executed Global Settlement Agreement, and requested that the arbitration be terminated and dismissed. The Arbitral Administrator acknowledged the dismissal of the arbitration.
On 14 March 2000, the Company and Contractor entered into a Global Settlement Agreement (the "GSA", as amended on 18 December 2000). Under the GSA, the Company committed to pay the Contractor the sum of US$135,000 as a Final Costs Claim Payment ("FCCP").
The FCCP shall be the full and final compensation for all of the Contractor's cost claims, known and unknown, arising out of or related to its performance of work on project, including but not limited to, all extra work claims, all requests for change orders, payment of the retention, payment of all unpaid payment milestones, claims arising out of inadequate access to the PLN grid, claims arising out of the failure and subsequent remediation of the south slope, all claims arising out of the Company's alleged improper set-off of amount payable to the Contractor, and all the interest claims related thereto. Interest accrues on the unpaid portion of the FCCP until the FCCP is paid in full. Under the GSA, the Company must pay all amounts owing under the GSA prior to payments of the subordinated debt or dividends. In 2004, the Company paid the Contractor US$82,931 comprising partial payments of FCCP of US$79,168 and interest of US$3,762. The accompanying financial statements include amounts due to the Contractor aggregating US$23,707 and US$102,850 as of 31 December 2004 and 2003, respectively.
The Company is a party to an operations and maintenance agreement (the "O&M Agreement") with PT Edison Mission Operation and Maintenance Indonesia (the "Operator"), which is affiliated with one of the Company's shareholders. The obligations of the Company and the Operator under the O&M Agreement became effective in April 1995 and continue for a term that is coterminous with the PPA. The obligations of the Operator under the O&M Agreement are guaranteed by Edison Mission Operation and Maintenance Incorporated (also affiliated with one of the shareholders of the Company). Under the terms of the O&M Agreement, the Operator is obligated to provide the operation, maintenance and repair services necessary for the production and delivery of electrical energy by the plant. Commencing from Operational Acceptance of the Plant, the Company shall pay to or receive from the Operator an incentive fee or a performance shortfall amount to the excess or shortage of Actual Availability Factor ("AFa") over Projected Availability Factor ("AFpm") under the PPA for the relevant contract year.
On 22 April 2003, the Company and the Operator entered into an Amendment to O&M Agreement. Under the Amendment, the Company agreed to modify the incentive fee and to effect certain modifications to the agreement.
As compensation for the services, the Operator is paid an annual base fee of US$3,250 payable in equal monthly installments. The base fee shall be subject to periodic adjustments based on the US Consumer Price Index. The Company was billed base fees of US$3,734, US$3,649 and US$3,595 by the Operator in 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Company was billed incentive fees totaling US$13,214, US$10,527 and US$1,533 in 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
29
The Company entered into a fuel supply agreement (the "Fuel Supply Agreement") with PT Batu Hitam Perkasa ("BHP"), one of the shareholders of the Company. Under this agreement, BHP was obligated to deliver coal to the plant in accordance with the approved coal supply plan. The Fuel Supply Agreement was for a term which commenced in April 1995 and which was scheduled to terminate on the thirtieth anniversary of the commercial operation date of the plant. From and after the commercial operation date, the Company was obligated to purchase a minimum of 700,000 tonnes of coal per quarter.
BHP made a claim of approximately Rp 48 billion (US$5,400) for coal delivered to the Company. BHP claimed that it was entitled to an upward adjustment in the price of coal delivered to reflect foreign exchange rate fluctuations since January 1998. The Company disputed the entire claim, while having paid one half of the pending claim under protest. An arbitration proceeding initiated by the Company under the Fuel Supply Agreement was commenced in 1999.
On 15 September 1999, a Fuel Chain Temporary Suspension Agreement, as amended on 21 December 1999, was entered by and among the Company, BHP, PT Adaro Indonesia ("Adaro"), PT Indonesia Bulk Terminal ("IBT"), Louis Dreyfus Amarteurs, S.N.C. ("LDA"), (the "Parties"). Under the agreement, the Parties agreed to suspend their respective rights and obligations under each of the Contracts (Fuel Supply Agreement between the Company and BHP, Coal Purchase Agreement between BHP and Adaro, Coal Terminal Service Agreement between BHP and IBT, Contract of Affreightment between BHP and LDA) until March 2002. In July 2002, BHP informed the Tribunal that it wished to proceed with the stayed arbitration and further to assert additional claims against the Company totaling approximately US$250,000. On 19 December 2002, the Company and BHP entered into a Settlement Agreement. Under the agreement, the Company and BHP agreed to settle for an aggregate settlement of US$16,225 and to assume responsiblity for claims against BHP from IBT, LDA and Adaro. In December 2002, the Company and BHP jointly notified the Tribunal of the Settlement Agreement and requested that BHP's supplemental counterclaims be dismissed with prejudice. The Company paid BHP US$10,250 on 30 December 2002 and the remaining US$5,975 in 2003, and undertook to settle with LDA, IBT and Adaro.
On 12 February 2003, the Company and IBT entered into the IBT Settlement Agreement. Under this agreement, the Coal Terminal Service Agreement entered into by BHP and IBT in 1995 has been terminated. Under the IBT Settlement Agreement, the Company is obligated to make a termination payment aggregating US$28,572. The Company paid IBT US$15,957 on 31 October 2003 and US$5,472 on 31 December 2003. The remaining has been fully paid in 2004.
The Company and LDA entered into the LDA Settlement Agreement dated 4 December 2001, as amended as of 31 January 2002. Under the agreement, the Company shall pay to LDA an aggregate principal amount of US$13,000 as the Termination Payment. Interest is payable on the aggregate unpaid principal amount of termination payment at LIBOR plus 1.5% per annum beginning on 31 January 2003. In 2003, the Company paid the full amount of the termination payment and the related interest.
On 20 December 2002, the Company entered into Primary Supply Contracts (the "Contracts") with PT Adaro Indonesia and PT Kideco Jaya Agung (the "fuel suppliers"). Under the Contracts, the fuel suppliers agree to supply coal to the Company up to a maximum specified annual quantity through 2006. The base price of coal will be equal to its fuel component. There is no commitment on the part of the Company with regard to minimum coal take in any year. The Contracts are valid until 31 December 2006 and can be extended for up to two additional consecutive terms of five years.

PLN's Labor Union initiated a lawsuit in 2001 against the Company, PLN, the Minister of Mines and Energy and a former PLN President Director. The suit sought the termination of the PPA, damages equal to US$590,000, as well as US$2,500,000 of immaterial damages (damages the amount of which cannot now be stated) and other relief. On 17 April 2002, the Court rendered a decision in favor of the Company and the other defendants dismissing all claims.
On 23 April 2002, the PLN Labor Union registered its appeal against the decision of the District Court to the High Court. All the appeals are pending at the High Court. In July 2004, the PLN Labor Union filed a brief in pursuit of its appeal. The claims were the same in substance to those asserted in the trial court. On 31 July 2004, the Company filed its response to the Union's appeal, reiterating its argument at the trial court. Counsel has advised that the resolution of the appeal could take between 12 to 24 months from such filing.
The Company's counsel has advised the Company that PLN's Labor Union has no standing under existing Law to assert any such claim against the Company and there are numerous legal and factual defects in the plaintiffs claim for relief. The Company will vigorously defend this meritless action if the appeal proceeds. Management believes that, based upon applicable law in place in Indonesia at this time, the suit is clearly without merit and, upon the proper application of applicable legal precepts by the court, this suit will be resolved in the Company's favor.
On 15 August 2003, the Company entered into a supply and installation of equipment contract with NDC International B.V. for design, supply, fabricate, deliver and install four jetty cranes complete with grabs plus one spare grab bucket with a contract value of US$7,500. The installation and commissioning is expected to be completed in 15 June 2005. In 2004, the Company paid the contractor US$4,875, including a prepayment of US$750.
On 30 September 2003, the Company issued a purchase order to PT Connell Wagner Indonesia ("CWI") with authorized value limit of A$650,000. Under this purchase order, CWI shall provide engineering, procurement and construction management services to the Company for the design, supply, delivery and installation of jetty cranes and ancillary works such that the Company may receive and unload coal from barges. In 2004, the Company was billed A$534,483 or equivalent to US$395.
On 9 July 2004, the Company issued a purchase order to PT Adhi Karya ("AK") with authorized value limit of Rp 8,020,746,357. Under this purchase order, AK shall provide services to the Company for the supply, delivery and installation of site work for the wharf cranes and ancillary works such that the Company may receive and unload coal from barges at its facility. During 2004 the Company has approved two additional change order which resulting total authorized value limit of Rp 8,153,488,057. In 2004, the Company was billed Rp 7,773,306,924 or equivalent to US$845.
On 20 November 2003, the Company entered into a 10 year jetty cranes of operations and maintenance agreement with Orchard Maritime Services Pte Ltd ("Orchard"). Orchard will provide operation and maintenance of the cranes, berthing of coal barges and coal unloading and barge cleaning services to the Company. The Company shall pay or reimburse Orchard for all crane operating expenses actually incurred or paid by Orchard during each month pursuant to the Agreement. In addition to all crane operating expenses and other amounts payable by the Company to Orchard, the Company shall pay Orchard a single month service fee, in arrears, for all services performed by Orchard on monthly basis. The cost is recoverable from PLN.

The Company is being audited by the Indonesian tax authorities in respect of its 2002 and 2003 corporate income tax returns. At the date of this report, the results of the audits are not yet known. Management believes that the results will not have an adverse impact on the Company's financial position.
15. Debt Restructuring
As discussed in Note 9, the Company had violated certain covenants on its loans and the Company was in default under the terms of financing agreements with Senior Lenders and the Common Agreement. On 14 February 2003, the Company completed its debt restructuring negotiations with its lenders. In connection with the successful completion of these negotiations, the Company executed the Common Agreement between the Company and its lenders. The Company has accounted for the debt restructuring as a troubled debt restructuring in accordance will SFAS No. 15 on the basis that the Company was experiencing financial difficulty through PLN's failure to pay according to the original terms of the PPA, and the Senior Lenders granted a concession to the Company. This concession is in the form of the effective borrowing rate on the restructured debt being less than the effective rate on the debt immediately prior to restructuring. Further, under the Common Agreement and the related Facility Credit Agreements, the original maturities of each of the senior debt facilities were lengthened. The carrying amount of the senior debt facilities at the time of restructuring amounted to approximately US$1,501,889. The Company did not recognize a gain on the debt restructuring as the total payments of principal and interest over the remaining term of the debt exceeded the carrying amount of the senior debt facilities.
In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 15, the deferred financing costs of US$75,225 and accrued finance costs of US$27,751 relating to levelizing of interest rates under the term of the Common Agreement at the time of the restructuring were adjusted to the outstanding loan balances for purposes of financial statement presentation. The effective interest rates applicable to each facility are the discount rate that equates the present value of the future cash payments specified by the new terms with the carrying amount of the payable. Certain debt restructuring costs qualified for deferral totaling US$8,316. All other costs were expensed in the period incurred.
16. Concentrations of Risk
The Company's operations are currently conducted in Indonesia, and it is accordingly subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies incorporated in the United States of America and Western European countries.
The Company's results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social condition in Indonesia and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and method taxation, among other things.
Indonesia has been experiencing a prolonged period of economic difficulty. Indonesia's return to economic stability is dependant to a large extent on the effectiveness of measures taken by the government, decisions of international lending organisations, changes in global economic conditions and other factors including regulatory and political developments, which are beyond the Company's control. These circumstances give rise to continued economic and political uncertainties.
The economic crisis in Indonesia during 1998 necessitated a restructuring of the PPA with PLN Company's sole customer. PLN's inability pay to the Company a portion of the amounts due the PPA resulted in the Company not being able to make repayments of the senior debt in accordance with the original debt amortization schedules which was an event of default under the senior debt agreements. In
32
December 2002, the PPA was amended as discussed in Note 14a. PLN has paid all invoices and all Restructuring Settlement Payments for 2004 and 2003, on time, as required and in the amended PPA.
As discussed in Note 9 and 15, the senior debt was restructured in February 2003. In connection with the restructuring of the senior debt, amortization schedule for repayment of the Company's loans was extended to take into account the effect upon the Company of the lower cash flow resulting from the restructured electricity tariff set forth in the PPA as amended. The Company believes that it will have sufficient cash flows to meet its obligations for repayment of debt, interest and other liabilities as and when they come due in 2005.
The generation of electricity by the plant requires the use of coal for fuel that must meet a certain quality standard. The Company purchases coal from a limited number of suppliers, however, the Company believes that other suppliers could provide similar quality coal on comparable terms. The time required to locate and qualify other coal suppliers, however, could cause a delay in electricity generation that may be disruptive to the Company.
17. LIQUIDITY
The Company's management has undertaken a detailed analysis of the cash flows of the Company for the twelve months ended 31 December 2005. Based on the forecast for the new twelve months, management has determined that sufficient liquidity exist to fund the operations of the business during that period. In preparing the forecast, management has reviewed historic cash requirements of the Company as well as key factors which may impact the operations of the Company during next twelve-month period, and are of the opinions that the assumptions and sensitivities which are included in the cash flow forecast are reasonable. However, as with all assumptions in regard to future events, these are subject to inherent limitations and uncertainties and some or all of these assumptions may not be realized.
