Six Percent Price Reduction Effective Today DALLAS, March 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Beginning today, approximately 1.3 million TXU Energy customers in the company's traditional service territory will receive a 6 percent price reduction that will be reflected in their next monthly bill. Residential customers using an average of 1,500 kilowatt-hours of electricity a month will save an average of approximately $150 annually on their electric bills. The price reduction affects existing customers on the company's most popular month-to-month pricing plans, making those plans lower than all other incumbents' Price-to-Beat rollover prices. This price reduction comes as part of a merger agreement announced last month under which an investor group led by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Company (KKR) and Texas Pacific Group will acquire TXU Corp. (NYSE:TXU). In addition, these customers will receive: * An additional 4 percent price reduction contingent on closing of the purchase of TXU by KKR and Texas Pacific Group; * Price protection through September 2008 - protection against price increases due to changing energy market conditions; and * Two remaining customer appreciation bonus payments of $25 each in 2007. "We are providing our customers with lower prices, price protection unmatched by any competitor and appreciation bonus payments," said Jim Burke, chief executive officer, TXU Energy. "We are also continuing to focus on customer service and developing new products and services as we compete aggressively to retain and win new customers in the competitive Texas electricity market." TXU Energy's new price, after the 6 percent discount, is now lower than any other incumbent's Price-to-Beat rollover price and 15 percent lower than the largest competitor's rollover price, as shown below: Incumbent Price Plan Average Annual Price based Provider on Average Monthly Usage of 1500 kWh TXU Energy Today's new price 13.8 cents/kWh (6% reduction) for TXU Energy FlexProtect(SM) and TXU Energy Freedom Plan(SM) TXU Energy Proposed price (10% reduction) 13.2 cents/kWh upon closing of transaction Reliant Energy Residential Service Plan 16.2 cents/kWh WTU Retail Energy Direct Electricity Plan 15.2 cents/kWh CPL Retail Energy Direct Electricity Plan 15.0 cents/kWh First Choice Power Simply Better Value Plan 14.3 cents/kWh For more information on TXU Energy, visit http://www.txu.com/ .
