Item 5. Other Events

Results of Antitrust Investigations

        In June 2002, the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission, in an investigation report, requested the U.S. Department of Justice - Antitrust Division (the "DOJ"), the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (the "FERC") and the Pennsylvania Attorney General (the "PA AG") to investigate PPL EnergyPlus' wholesale marketing activities in the Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland installed capacity market.

        The FERC already has completed two investigations and found no reason to take action against PPL. In June 2003, the DOJ confirmed that it has closed its investigation into this matter. Also in June 2003, the PA AG completed its antitrust investigation and determined that PPL did not violate antitrust or other laws in its market activities.

        Filed herewith and incorporated herein by reference as an exhibit is the press release issued by PPL Corporation relating to the results of these investigations.
