Use
of Proceeds—The
net proceeds from the sale of the 12,000
shares of 5%
cumulative preferred stock now offered will be received
by James C. Tucker. Mr. Tucker, as nominee of Arizona Power Corp.,
provided funds required to redeem all of the outstanding shares of
preferred stock of the Arizona Power Corp. Upon the deposit of the
funds for the purpose of such redemption, Mr. Tucker became the
owner
of the shares called for redemption, and, under the plan of
(consolidation received the 12,000 shares of 5-% cumulative preferred
stock of Arizona Power Co. in exchange for the shares of preferred
stock of the predecessor thus acquired by him.
In effect, therefore,
the proceeds received by Mr. Tucker will reimburse him in part for
his advance
of funds for the purpose of redeeming the preferred

At
a
special meeting held on Oct. 31, 1944, the common stock¬
holders
adopted an amendment of the certificate of incorporation
which eliminated the previously authorized 7>/2% cumulative preferred
stock
(none of which has ever been issued)
and authorized a new
preferred stock of 100,000 shares issuable in one or more series.
The
preferred stock first series, limited to a maximum of 30,000 shares,
was
offered for issuance to debenture holders in exchange for the
surrender of debentures for cancellation.
Under the plan of exchange
holders
of $2,225,200 of
debentures surrendered them In exchange
for
24,477.2 shares of preferred stock first series.
An additional
$880,600 of debentures were retired by redemption on Jan. 1, 1945,
and during the fiscal year the company purchased and retired a total
of $40,700.
As a result of these retirements the amount of outstand¬
ing debentures was reduced to $1,921,000 at Jan. 31, 1945,,
On Feb.
21, 1945, the directors took action to call all of the remaining deben¬

it has been Impracticable to segregate war orders which are
subject to cancellation.
Of the orders on hand as of Aug. 1, 1945, it
is estimated that approximately 82%
are war orders subject to can¬
cellation.
Accordingly, it is estimated that approximately $950,000
of such orders are not subject to cancellation due to the termination
of the war, of which it is estimated that approximately $200,000 are
orders
for export
excluding Canadian manufacturers, approximately
$250,000 are jobbers' orders and approximately $500,000 are other non-*
war
orders.
A substantial
portion of the company's war business
(estimated at Aug. 31. 1945, to be approximately 75% ), however, has i
been cancelled following the cessation of hostilities with Japan..
The.
company anticipates that additional orders on hand may be calcelled,
and that most, if not all, of the company's war business will have
been cancelled upon the completion of the program of the Government
relating to cancellations.
