To Our Valued Suppliers:

In an effort to reduce costs, improve transaction times and enhance business communication with our suppliers, PPL is taking advantage of the benefits of electronic commerce, and we want you to join us.

Our goal is to conduct business with approved suppliers using Enporion, a supply chain e-marketplace that provides electronic transaction services designed to save money and time. Enporion's services allow for a smooth transaction from purchase order to electronic invoicing.

Our experience with numerous suppliers shows that e-commerce can shorten our review and approval time by up to 20 days compared with paper invoices, enhancing our ability to pay you on time.

As often is the case, full realization of such benefits may require a change to your business processes. Enporion offers you a choice of connecting over the Internet or directly integrating your systems to its marketplace. You have my commitment that PPL and Enporion will work with you to make the needed changes for a smooth transition.

I encourage you to explore this opportunity to create savings within your organization and hope you will consider conducting e-commerce with PPL. Please don’t hesitate to contact our Supply Chain management team for more information.

Sincerely,

William H. Spence
Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer
