Explanation of Responses:
1 for 1
The deemed execution date for this transaction is 12/4/2002.
In accordance with the terms and conditions of the Amended FirstEnergy Corp.
Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors.
Represents number of shares beneficially owned as of 12/19/2002.
This is a correction - not a sale. The Director elected to receive compensation
in the form of deferred cash for 2002. Some of his fee balances were
inadvertently applied to deferred stock. This amendment corrects the error.
