CLASSIFICATION OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Assets and liabilities are classified according to their use or degree of
realization, demand or liquidation, in terms of time and value.
Accordingly, current assets and liabilities (short-term) are understood as such
amounts that will be realizable or demandable, respectively, within a term
not longer than one year.
2.3 ADJUSTMENTS FOR INFLATION
Until December 31, 2000, non-monetary assets and liabilities and
shareholders’ equity, except for the surplus from revaluation of assets and
Income Statement accounts, were monetarily updated on a prospective basis,
using general consumer-price index (or Tax Year's Adjustment Percentages
–PAAG, for its Spanish initials–). The respective adjustments were recorded in
the income statement’s monetary correction account. As of January 1, 2001
the Colombian General Accounting Office –CGN–, through Resolution No.
364 of November 29, 2001, suspended the system of integral inflation
adjustments for accounting effects, without reverting the inflation
adjustments accounted until December 31, 2000.
According to Resolution No. 041 of 2004 and to External Circular Letter No.
056 of 2004, issued by the Colombian General Accounting Office, inflation
adjustment accounts were eliminated from the General Plan of Public
Accounting as part of the cost, thereby obligating to incorporate
accumulated amounts for adjustments until 2000. In order to comply with
regulations in force, since 2001, integral inflation adjustments continue to be
applied for tax effects, giving rise to differences that are recorded in the tax
memorandum accounts. Law 1111 of 2006 derogated integral inflation
adjustments for tax effects beginning in fiscal year 2007. (See Note 16.2).
2.4
MATERIALITY
Recognition and presentation of economic facts are made according to their
relative importance.
An economic fact is material when due to its nature or amount, knowing or
not knowing it, considering the circumstances, could significantly change the
economic decisions of the users of that information.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, it was determined for
presentation purposes that an event would be material if it represented 5%
of total assets, current assets, total liabilities, current liabilities, working
capital, equity, or income.
14
Annual Report 2009
NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF MAIN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND
PRACTICES
For the preparation and presentation of its financial statements, the
Company, as required by law, observes the Public Accounting General Plan
defined by the Colombian General Accounting Office –CGN–, the accounting
regulations issued by the Superintendency of Domiciliary Public Utilities
–SSPD– and other applicable regulation.
For keeping, preservation and custody of the accounting books and
supporting documents, the regulation applicable to support documents,
vouchers, and accounting books, established by the Colombian General
Accounting Office, is observed.
The Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements are identified, classified,
registered, valued, prepared and disclosed in accordance with the accounting
principles of the CGN contained in Resolutions No. 354, 355 and 356 of
September 5 of 2007, through which the Public Accounting Regime was
implemented to apply the criteria of international accounting standards
currently being adopted by the CGN.
Following is a description of the main accounting policies and practices
adopted by the Company:
3.1
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND BALANCES
Transactions in foreign currency are recorded at the applicable exchange
rates in force on the date of the transaction. At the close of each year,
balances of assets and liabilities accounts are adjusted to current exchange
rates (See Note 4). Exchange differences resulting from asset balances (other
than controlled investments abroad) are recorded in the Income Statement.
With regard to liability accounts, only exchange differences that are not
imputable to costs of acquisition of assets are recorded in the Income
Statement. Exchange differences imputable to the acquisition cost of assets
include exchange differences while such assets are under construction or
installation, and until they become operational.
3.2
CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of preparing the statement of cash flows, marketable
investments redeemable within the next 90 days are considered to be cash
equivalents.
3.3
INVESTMENTS
Investments are recorded at cost and are updated in accordance with the
intention of realization, the availability of market information, and the
degree of control held over the issuing entity by applying methodologies
suitable to their economic reality. Methodologies to update their value
include stock exchange quotes, net present value to determine market price
or the security’s internal rate of return, the equity method, and the cost
method.
According to the new Public Accounting Regime, the Company’s investments,
for matters of their valuation, are classified in three categories: i) liquidity
management, including debt titles and securities, intended for profiting
from short-term price fluctuations; ii) investments with a political purpose,
including debt titles kept until maturity, or at least for one year from
purchase date; iii) and equity investments, including securities in controlled
and non-controlled companies.
15
Annual Report 2009
In the Consolidated Financial Statements, investments are classified as
marketable and long-term, and they are reported respectively within current
and non-current assets. The former include investments for liquidity
management, and the latter for equity investments in controlled and noncontrolled companies.
Investments for liquidity management
Liquidity management investments in debt titles and securities, as well as
derivatives intended for liquidity management, are initially recorded at cost
and are updated monthly through methodology of the Colombian Financial
Superintendency. Changes arising from each valuation made in investments
for liquidity management are recognized in the income statement.
Financial derivative instruments
In order to reduce exposure to exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations of
financial liabilities with local and international commercial banks and
multilateral agencies and of bond issues, among others, the ISA’s companies
use derivative instruments such as swaps, forwards and options.
According to the rules issued by the Colombian General Accounting Office,
derivative instruments for hedging purposes are recognized for the amount
of the right or of the liability on the date of commencement of the contract,
are monthly updated using methodologies of recognized technical value,
and the difference is recorded as derivative valuation revenue or expense, as
the case may be.
Brazilian Comissão de Valores Mobiliários –CVM– issued 15 accounting rules
that must be applied by companies in Brazil by the end of 2008; changes must
be implemented by April 30, 2009 at the latest. Among other things, these
rules provide that swaps must be valued considering the prices of the market
where such financial instruments operate. Given the restrictions and duties
imposed by CVM regarding derivatives in Brazil, ISA carried out the valuation
of such swap considering that it is a right obtained with the purpose of
hedging rather than speculation.
Investments with a political purpose
Investments with a political purpose include debt securities issued by local or
foreign entities acquired in compliance with macroeconomic policies or the
Company’s internal policies.
Investments for compliance with macroeconomic policies correspond to debt
titles acquired under agreed or mandatory subscription.
Investments to comply with the entity’s internal policies include investments
held to maturity and investments for sale, the latter understood as
investments held for at least one (1) year. In both cases, the intention to hold
the securities during the stated term, as well as the legal, contractual,
financial and operative capacity, are required.
Investments held to maturity are updated on the basis of the internal rate of
return foreseen in the methodologies adopted by the Colombian Financial
Superintendency.
16
Annual Report 2009
EQUITY INVESTMENTS
a. Equity investment in controlled companies
Equity investments in controlled companies include investments made in
order to exercise or share control, as well as those in which the Company has
substantial influence, and long-term investments in which the public sector
holds over 50% direct or indirect participation. These investments are
accounted through the equity method, according to CGN Resolution No. 356
of 2007, amended by Resolution 145 of 2008. Under the equity method,
investment in subsidiaries and affiliates is recognized at cost, and is adjusted
through:
a) Credit or charge to the investment’s cost equal to the participation of the
Company in profits and losses of the subsidiary, with a matching entry in
the income statement.
b) Credit or charge to the investment equal to the participation of the
Company in the subsidiary’s equity variation with a matching entry in the
surplus from equity method account, in the event of an increase; in the
event of a decrease, as surplus from equity method until its exhaustion, and
the remaining difference in the income statement.
c) Credit or charge to the investment equal to the amount of dividends
received from the subsidiary that correspond to periods during which, ISA
applied the equity method.
If the difference between intrinsic value and book value of the investment
recorded on equity basis is:
a) Positive, re-appraisal of assets is increased, and the revaluation surplus
included in the equity accounts is credited.
b) Negative, re-appraisal of assets is reduced with a charge to the revaluation
surplus up to the amount available; any difference is recorded as a charge
to equity surplus, until exhaustion. Any additional deficit is recognized in
the income statement as a loss.
Investments in subordinated companies abroad are recorded on the basis of
their financial statements at December 31 of each year, translated into
Colombian pesos, using the United States dollar as functional currency,
applying the provisions of International Accounting Standard 21. Translation
of financial statements into Colombian pesos was conducted in compliance
with the following principles: Balance sheet items are calculated using the
closing exchange rate; income statement items are calculated using the
accumulated average exchange rate for each month closing; net effect with
respect to closing rate is recognized as translation adjustment.
b. Equity investments in non-controlled companies
The other variable-income equity investments in non-controlled companies
that are not listed in stock exchanges are recorded at cost plus the dividends
received in shares. If at year’s end, the intrinsic value of investments is greater
or lower than the book value, a charge is recorded in the re-appraisals
account with a contra entry in re-appraisal surplus in equity, or a provision is
charged to the income statement, respectively.
17
Annual Report 2009
3.4 ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS
On each quarter’s closing date, the associated credit risk of the accounts
receivable from customers and other debtors is examined in order to
determine the respective provisions, which include percentages between
10% and 100%, according to aging analysis and evaluations of the collection
of individual accounts.
3.5
INVENTORIES
Inventories are recorded at cost, and at end of the year, through a provision
charged to the income statement, are reduced to their sale value, if it is lower
than their book value. Spare parts, materials and other consumables are
valued by the weighted average method.
3.6
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, which, where relevant,
may include:
a) financing costs associated to acquisition and construction of assets not in
operational conditions and b) until year 2000, inflation adjustments on costs,
excluding capitalized exchange differences and the portion of capitalized
interest corresponding to inflation.
Sales and retirements of such assets are discharged at their respective net
adjusted cost, and differences between sale price and net adjusted cost are
recorded in the income statement.
In 2009, the Company concluded and implemented the study of useful life by
components, so as to comply with the attachment of Resolution 356 of 2007
of the Colombian General Accounting Office, establishing that depreciation
and amortization must be calculated for each asset individually considered;
however, when its components or parts have different useful lives, or provide
economic or potential service benefits of different rhythms, depreciation
shall be applied to each component. For the same year, TRANSELCA expanded
the technical study on useful and remaining lives for each component or
productive asset.
Definition of components of the energy transmission system:
A component of a fixed asset is an element that can be regarded as a part of
another asset, but due to its own features, because of the function it serves,
and the type of strategies or activities developed along its technical service
life, can be treated as an independent asset.
Materials with high inventory turnover shall not be classified as fixed assets.
Based on CIGRE (International Council of Large Electric Systems) reference
statistics and ISA’s experience in terms of transmission grid, the average useful
life of transmission lines is estimated at a maximum of 63 years (2008: 40
years).
Depreciation is calculated over the asset’s cost by the straight-line method,
based on the estimated useful life of assets. For the purpose of depreciation
calculations, following is a list with the assets’ estimated useful life:

Maintenance expenditures of these assets are charged to the Income
Statement, while improvements and additions are added to their costs, since
they increase useful life, expand productive capacity and operational
efficiency, improve service quality, and permit significant cost reduction.
Repairs required because of attacks to the electric infrastructure are recorded
as extraordinary expenses in the period when the attacks occur and do not
increase the useful life originally assigned to the assets. Due to the difficulties
to insure this type or risk, these damages are accrued in the financial
statements as they occur and are not recorded on estimate basis.
Real property intended for generation of revenues from rent is recorded as
investment property.
19
Annual Report 2009
Assets not being used in operations are classified as non-exploited assets, and
their depreciation is suspended.
3.7
DEFERRED CHARGES AND OTHER ASSETS
Deferred charges and other assets include prepaid expenses, deferred
charges and other assets. Prepaid expenses include mainly monetary items
such as insurance premiums and interest, which are amortized as they accrue.
Deferred charges and other assets include goodwill from acquisition of longterm investments, cost of acquisition of software, easements, tax to preserve
democratic security, bond underwriting commissions, legal stability
agreement premium, licenses and rights, from which future and quantifiable
economic benefits are expected to be obtained. It also includes deferred
taxes resulting from temporary differences between net income and tax
income.
Software is amortized on a straight-line basis over a maximum of three years.
Goodwill, bond underwriting commissions, legal stability agreement
premium, licenses and rights are amortized on a straight-line basis during the
periods over which their benefits are expected to be received, according to
the feasibility studies for their recovery.
Charges for studies and research of projects in pre-operational stage will be
treated as expenses and are not capitalized even when a subsequent decision
is made as to execute the project and when the project is intended for
internal purposes.
Useful life of intangibles can be indefinite or finite; it is indefinite when
there is no foreseeable limit for the period in which the asset is expected to
generate future economic benefits; it is finite when the period during which
economic benefits or service potential will be received can be estimated (see
note 10).
3.8
RE-APPRAISALS
Re-appraisals that are part of equity include:
3.8.1 The excess of the valuation (appraisals) of the main components of
property, plant and equipment over per-books net cost. Such appraisals
were determined by independent appraisers, in the case of real-estate
property; by their market value, in the case of transport equipment;
and based on technical studies developed by employees of the
Company, in the case of other assets. These valuations shall be made at
least every three years, or when market conditions indicate that such
amounts have materially changed (See Note 11).
3.8.2 The excess of intrinsic value (equity value) of long-term investments
over their net cost.
3.9
CURRENT INCOME TAX AND DEFERRED TAX
Income tax provision is calculated on the period’s ordinary net taxable
income, which is obtained from relevant revenues, costs and expenses.
The credit deferred tax is the lesser current tax calculated during the period,
resulting from the excess of tax depreciation and amortization over perbooks depreciation and amortization, when useful life, depreciation and
amortization methods for tax purposes differ from accounting ones, for
which differences are expected to be reverted in the future.
20
Annual Report 2009
The debit deferred tax represents the temporary differences that have
generated a higher amount of current income tax. Basically, this includes
inflation adjustments on non-monetary depreciable and amortizable assets,
balances of provisions for doubtful accounts, retirement payments to
pensioners, and health, education and other benefits, among others, for
which differences are expected to be reverted in the future.
According to opinion No. 20061-57086 of CGN of January 31, 2006, the
Company has autonomy in defining the accounting principles regarding
deferred tax. Accordingly, ISA has considered, among others, inflation
adjustments recognized only for tax effects of depreciable fixed assets, as
temporary differences that result in the accrual of deferred tax, since these
generate a greater monetary correction income tax, increasing the income
tax payable, and are subsequently recovered during the following years as
the fixed assets are depreciated.
For Brazilian subsidiaries, interests on own equity are part of the income
statement and are shown directly under net fiscal equity. For tax effects, they
are treated as financial expenses, reducing the basis for income tax and social
contributions for the period.
3.10 LABOR LIABILITIES
Labor liabilities are adjusted at the end of each period on the basis of legal
provisions and labor agreements in force. An actuarial study is conducted
every year to determine pension liability, future health and education
benefits and retirement payments to pensioners. Retirement pension
payments are charged to the actuarial estimate account.
With respect to amortization of retirement pension liabilities for Colombian
subsidiaries, it must correspond to the value resulting from dividing the total
actuarial estimate pending amortization by the number of years remaining
to complete the term set by regulation in force, applicable to each particular
entity, and counted from the actuarial estimate closing date. For ISA,
maximum time provided for by regulation is 30 years starting on December
31, 1994.
Regarding the methodology to amortize benefits and aids, the Company
amortizes 100% of actuarial liabilities, closely following international
accounting standards, as is the intention of the CGN.
Accounting records for recognition of this liability and associated expenses
are carried out in accounts different from those in which actuarial estimates
are included.
3.11 SENIORITY COMPENSATION
According to the legislation in force, seniority compensation of the personnel
of the Energy Transmission Centers –CTE– of the subsidiaries Interconexión
Eléctrica ISA Perú S.A. and Red de Energía del Perú S.A. –REP– is computed for
all employees, for the amount of the indemnity rights and should be
deposited in financial entities selected by the employee.
3.12 RECLASSIFICATIONS IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Certain amounts included in the consolidated financial statements at
December 31, 2008 were reclassified to conform to the presentation of the
consolidated financial statements for 2009.
21
Annual Report 2009
3.13 MEMORANDUM ACCOUNTS
Memorandum accounts include loans contracted but not disbursed,
contingencies resulting from claims and lawsuits, and guarantees granted
under loan agreements. They also include temporary and permanent
differences between accounting and tax amounts, which will be reasonably
reverted in time, and allow preparation of specific-purpose reports,
respectively.
Non-monetary memorandum accounts were adjusted for inflation until
December 31 of 2000, with charge to a contra memorandum account.
3.14 RECOGNITION OF REVENUE, COSTS AND EXPENSES
Revenue, costs and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Revenue from
service provision is recognized during the contractual period or when services
are rendered.
At ISA, amounts received to remunerate recovery of investments in UPMES, as
well as usage rights not accrued because their respective costs have not been
yet incurred or because the related services have not been rendered yet, are
recognized as deferred revenue. This deferred revenue is amortized over the
periods along which it accrues.
For XM, according to the provisions of laws 142 and 143 of 1994, it is the duty
of the Energy and Gas Regulatory Commission -CREG- to approve revenue
from CND, ASIC and LAC services to be billed to market agents.
Along the year 2008, resolutions 110 of 2006 and 048 of 2008 were applied
until the month of May and as of the month of June, respectively.
CREG Resolution 110 of 2006 provides for annual recognition of revenue
from operation and investment costs necessary for service delivery, and
remuneration of shareholders’ equity. CREG Resolution 048 establishes
remuneration for the regulated services of XM S.A. E.S.P., for the next five
years, defining, for each month, the Regulated Maximum Revenue as equal
to the total of the following monthly items: operating expenses, investments,
adjustment due to regulatory changes or to deviation in investment
execution, and equity’s return margin.
CREG Resolution 048 of 2008 entered into force in 2009, adjusted as of June
by Resolution 071 of 2009, approving recognition of adjustment to maximum
regulated income for higher expenses and investments coming from
regulatory changes, legal fees expenses, and the effect on income tax of
working capital recognized in the previous fiscal period.
3.15 USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements according to accounting principles
generally accepted in Colombia requires some estimates that affect the
values of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses reported for such
periods. The actual result of certain items may differ from such estimates.
3.16 OPERATING AND ADMINISTRATIVE LIMITATIONS AND
DEFICIENCIES
During 2009 and 2008, no operating or administrative limitations or
deficiencies were found that would significantly affect the normal
accounting processes, or the consistency and reliability of the accounting
figures.
22
Annual Report 2009
3.17 CONTINGENCIES
On the date financial statements are issued certain contingent conditions
may exist which might result in a loss for the companies but are only resolved
in the future when events actually take place. These contingencies are
estimated by the management and its legal counsels. The estimation of loss
contingencies is necessarily a matter of judgment and opinion. When
estimating contingent losses in legal processes, legal counsels assess the merit
of claims, related decisions, and the current state of processes, among other
issues.
If evaluation indicates that a material loss has probably occurred and the
amount of the liability can be estimated, it is then recorded in the financial
statements. If evaluation indicates that loss is improbable but the result is
uncertain, or if it is probable but its amount is impossible to estimate, then
the nature of the contingency is disclosed in a note to the financial
statements together with an estimate of the probable loss. Generally, loss
contingencies estimated as remote are not recorded or disclosed.

Because of the nature of fixed assets and their spare parts, many of which are
not easily obtainable in the market and have long delivery terms, large stocks
are necessary in order to guarantee continuity of service and compliance with
the system’s availability indicators.
The economic group’s companies conduct actions to guarantee adequate
preservation and safeguarding of inventories, and take periodic stock count
with no significant differences found.
1) The main variation is explained by record made by CTEEP in 2009 of inventories corresponding to materials
remaining from works.
2) Increase in inventories in transit is accounted for by Proyectos de Infraestructura del Perú -PDI-, amounting to
$22,048, corresponding to imports of the Centro project.
3) In 2009, as part of the scope of the Lean Six Sigma project, ISA conducted a study to increase efficiency of
inventories logistics, identifying surplus materials and other obsolete assets, especially parts for recovery of
damages due to attacks on the infrastructure.

1) Re-appraisal of Empresa Propietaria de la Red -EPR-.
2) Economic appraisal was conducted in 2008 in ISA and TRANSELCA for main components of property, plant and
equipment, in compliance with the provisions of the Public Accounting Regime - Resolution 354 of September 5 of
2007.
Technical appraisals of operational assets for Colombian subsidiaries were
made by using the technically recognized Straight-line Depreciated
Replacement Cost method approved by the Colombian General Accounting
Office as stated in number 18 of accounting procedure for recognition and
disclosure of facts related to property, plant and equipment, issued by
Resolution 356 of September 5, 2007. The methodology consists of
determining the present value of operational equipment , based on the
actual cost of an asset with the same characteristics that provides the same
service (the as-new replacement value –VRN–1), proportionally affected by
the remaining time of service (remaining useful life) with respect to the
useful life initially established. This criterion is applied to every specialized
asset2 that ISA has in operation for energy transmission (use and connection).
Market value is used for non-specialized3 assets such as vehicles.

16.1 RETIREMENT PENSIONS AND AGREED LABOR BENEFITS
Retirement pensions
Under collective bargaining agreements and labor contracts, ISA,
TRANSELCA S.A. E.S.P. and XM, Compañía de Expertos en Mercados S.A. E.S.P.,
are required to pay pensions to employees who satisfy certain conditions of
age and length of service. However, the Social Security Institute –ISS– and the
pension management funds have assumed the greater part of this obligation
upon compliance with certain legal requirements.
41
Annual Report 2009
Since the year 2005, ISA and TRANSELCA, in prudent anticipation of
application of International Financial Reporting Standards –IFRS–, conducted
a study with the help of a specialized actuarial firm to determine the
companies' liabilities regarding agreed labor benefits enjoyed by retirees,
different from monthly pension payment.
Present value of this estimate stands for ISA, at $37,307 (2008: $35,002), and
for TRANSELCA, at $50,492 (2008: $48,825), which are fully amortized.
The main estimates used in the actuarial calculation were as follows:

and salaries

Agreed Fringe Benefits
The calculation of pension liabilities for ISA, XM and TRANSELCA included
agreed fringe benefits received by pensioners in addition to those required
by legal regulations. This practice was adopted in 2005 as a prudent policy
seeking alignment with International Financial Reporting Standards –IFRS–
The calculation included fringe benefits agreed in individual and collective
labor agreements to which present and future pensioners are entitled, such
42
Annual Report 2009
as: education and health (supplementary plans and aid for health expenses)
and pension contributions.
16.2 INCOME TAX
Income tax and surtaxes
Liabilities for taxes, liens and duties are made up mainly of income tax,
calculated according to local regulation applicable to the parent company
and its subordinates.
Tax regulations applicable to the Colombian companies provide:
a. Taxable income is subject to 33% rate.
b. The basis to determine income tax for the year shall not be lower than 3%
of net fiscal equity on the last day of the preceding taxable year, refined
with the items duly authorized by tax regulations in force.
c. Law 863 of 2003 established that income tax payers could deduct 30% of
the effective investments made only in productive real fixed assets.
According to changes made in Law 1111 of 2006, starting 2007, the
percentage is 40% and its application does not result in income taxable for
shareholders. After applying this regulation, and based on investments
made by the Company during the year, the period’s ordinary net taxable
income was decreased by $28,869 (2008: $16,922).
d. As of 2004, income tax payers performing transactions with foreign related
or associated parties and/or with residents of countries considered as tax
haven, are required, for income tax purposes, to determine their ordinary
and extraordinary revenues, costs and deductions, assets and liabilities,
taking into consideration for these transactions the prices and profit
margins of the market. At this time, the Company’s management and its
counsels have not concluded the updating study for 2009; however, based
on the satisfactory results of the study conducted for 2008, their opinion is
that no significant additional income tax provisions shall be required as a
result of the study.
e. As a result of application of CGN Resolution No. 356 of September 5 of 2007
(to be applied retroactively as of January 1 of 2007), change arises in
accounting treatment of equity investments of controlled entities on
which the corporation has important influence, particularly for recording
of updating through equity method, according to which, all exchange
difference variations are considered equity variations until disposal of
investment, therefore affecting equity instead of fiscal year's results.
Pursuant to the provisions of fiscal regulation of investment in foreign
currency, application of the above accounting rule generates a conciliatory
entry between accounting and fiscal results, arising from the exchange
difference from investments in foreign currency in controlled entities.
f. In 2005, Decision 578 of the Andean Community of Nations –CAN– entered
into force. This decision seeks to avoid double taxation of the income
earned in any of the member countries using an exoneration mechanism.
Based on this decision and on the opinions of tax advisors, the income
earned in CAN member countries are considered to be tax exempt.
g. On June 27, 2008, ISA and the Ministry of Mines and Energy subscribed the
legal stability agreement for the activity of electric energy transmission
43
Annual Report 2009
during 20 years. The agreement provides for legal stability regarding
income tax regulations, among which: income tax rate, deduction of
inflation component of financial expenses, special 40% deduction for new
investments in new productive real fixed assets, tax discount on VAT paid in
import of machinery for energy transport, presumptive income equal to
3% of net fiscal equity, and transitoriness of equity tax.
This agreement guarantees that, in the event of adverse modification to
the regulations stabilized under the agreement, unmodified regulations
shall continue to apply during the term of the agreement.
h. On September 2 of 2007, TRANSELCA S.A. E.S.P. filed a claim against DIAN
with the Administrative Tribunal of Atlántico for official calculation of
income tax return of fiscal year 2002, where the Tax Administration
disavows tax deductions for $4,616 and calculates tax in excess of $1,616.
The claim was accepted by the tribunal on February 5, 2008. TRANSELCA
presented final pleadings on September 15, 2008. On the date of this
report, this claim was in the tribunal pending judgment.
Regarding the action related to income tax return for 2002, the Company’s
management and its fiscal counsels consider that the arguments set forth
reasonably support deductibility of the expenses denied by DIAN.
i. As of December 31, 2009, INTERNEXA S.A. E.S.P- posted fiscal loss of
$34,605 (2008: $27,426) to compensate for, originating in the years 2003 to
2009. According to fiscal regulation in force, fiscal losses generated
between 2003 and 2006 can be fiscally readjusted and compensated for
with taxable income of the next eight years without exceeding 25% of loss
annually, without limitation upon presumptive income of fiscal year.
Losses originating after fiscal 2007 can be compensated for and/or fiscally
readjusted without percentage limitation at any time, with taxable income
without limitation upon presumptive income of fiscal year. The losses of
the corporations cannot be transferred to their shareholders. Fiscal losses
from revenues that do not constitute income or incidental income and
from costs and deductions not originating taxable income cannot be offset
with net taxable income of the taxpayer.
At December of 2009, the company shows presumptive income excess over
regular income of $27,559 generated during the years 2005 to 2009.
According to fiscal regulation in force, presumptive income excess over
regular income obtained as of fiscal 2003 can be compensated for with
taxable income within the next 5 years, and/or readjusted fiscally.
Equity tax
Under Law 1111 of 2006, equity tax was established for fiscal years 2007,
2008, 2009 and 2010, payable by individuals, legal entities and
unincorporated associations who pay income tax. For matters of this tax,
wealth is equivalent to the obligor’s total net fiscal equity that exceeds $3,000
million.
This tax is calculated on the basis of net fiscal equity as of January 1 of 2007, at
a rate of 1.2%.
During the first semester of 2009 and 2008, management, based on article 25
of Law 1111 of 2006, and with approval of the Shareholders' Meeting of
March 30 of 2007, authorized recording the equity tax of years 2009 and 2008
for $20,173 in ISA, $4,547 in TRANSELCA, $212 in XM, and $1,882 in
44
Annual Report 2009
INTERNEXA, against the equity revaluation account, for each year.
Tax Law Amendment of 2009
Law 1370 of December 30 of 2009, amended tax law as follows:
a) A new tax was levied for the year 2011, valid until 2014, to be paid by legal
persons and individuals, and by unincorporated associations who pay
income tax. For matters of this tax, wealth is equivalent to the obligor’s
total net fiscal equity that exceeds $3,000 million. This tax’s rate is 2.4%
when the taxpayer’s net fiscal equity ranges between three and five
thousand million pesos ($3,000 – $5,000) and 4.8% when it exceeds five
thousand million pesos ($5,000). The tax corresponding to each taxpayer
is to be paid between the years 2011 and 2014.
b) The amount of the special deduction for investment in real, productive,
fixed assets included in article 158-3 of the Tax Law was reduced from
forty (40%) to thirty percent (30%).
Considering that ISA has subscribed a legal stability agreement stabilizing,
among others, the above mentioned rules for energy transmission activities,
it must only comply with the provisions of the tax law amendment in those
activities different from energy transmission.
Tax regulations applicable to the companies in Bolivia provide:
According to Law No. 843 (as in force) and Supreme Decrees No. 24051 and
29382 of June 29 of 1995 and December 20 of 2007 respectively, every
corporation is subject to Corporate Income Tax –IUE– at the rate of 25% on
taxable earnings of each fiscal year, resulting from adjusting the accounting
income in accordance with the criteria defined in the above-mentioned
provisions. This tax, which is calculated and paid every year, is compensated
with the Transactions Tax –IT– of the following fiscal year, until its exhaustion,
or until the IUE is due again.
ISA Bolivia conducts accounting recording as provided by Decision on
Auditing and Accounting No. 41 issued by the National Technical Council of
Auditing and Accounting.
At December 31 of 2009 and 2008, provisions of Bs17,031,037 ($4,924) and
Bs31,757,595 ($10,078) respectively, were established with a charge to the
account “Tax on Corporations’ Earnings” (Loss).
Tax regulations applicable to the companies in Peru provide:
Income tax rate is 30%, calculated after determining workers bonuses of 5%
of pre-tax income.
Tax regulations applicable to the companies in Brazil provide:
Income tax rate is 15%, and an additional 10% surtax is determined on
annual taxable income exceeding BRL 240,000. An additional 9% must also
be paid for social contribution on taxable income.

19.1 CLAIMS AND LAWSUITS
Interconexión Electrica S.A. E.S.P. –ISA–
ISA currently appears as party, as a defendant, plaintiff or as an intervening
third party, of judicial processes of administrative, civil and labor nature.

intervening third party could affect its stability. In its own name, it has taken
the necessary judicial measures to carry out its corporate purpose and the

is a party to:

lawsuit against the tax authorities (Dirección de Impuestos y Aduanas
Nacionales –DIAN–), for $4,780, related to default interest in favor of ISA,
resulting from the non-timely reimbursing excess income tax paid in 1995.
The process is currently awaiting judgment from the Tribunal.
e. Administrative Tribunal of Antioquia. ISA challenged Resolution 1233 of
2001, by which the Municipality of San Carlos requested payment of taxes
by the public space occupation for $1,839 for the year 2000.
f. Nullity and redress process No. 064. Flores III LTDA & CIA. S.C.A. E.S.P., has
sued the State – Ministry of Mines and Energy, CREG, ISA and
Electrificadora del Caribe S.A. E.S.P.,– Claim: Declaration of nullity of CREG
Resolution 031 of July 22, 1999, by which the appeal presented by
ELECTRICARIBE S.A. was accepted, releasing the Company from paying
amounts invoiced by ISA for the restriction of the 220-110 kV
autotransformer. Declaration of nullity of alleged administrative act
resulting from failure to answer within the legal term a request for direct
repeal of the foregoing resolution and award payment of $2,343.
g. Administrative Tribunal of Antioquia. Termocandelaria has filed a nullity
and redress lawsuit against ISA, the Nation, the Ministry of Mines and
Energy, and CREG, in the amount of $20,794 regarding CREG Resolutions
034, 038 and 094 of 2001.
h. Administrative Tribunal of Antioquia. Central Hidroeléctrica de Betania
S.A. E.S.P., has filed nullity and redress lawsuits against ISA, the State, the
Ministry of Mines and Energy, and CREG, in the amount of $58,598 and
USD15,373,890, for capacity charges - CREG Resolutions 077 and 111 of
2000.
i Administrative Court of Antioquia. Emgesa S.A. E.S.P., has filed nullity and
redress lawsuits against ISA, the State, the Ministry of Mines and Energy,
and CREG, in the amount of $198,662 and USD82.4 million, and against
XM, the State, the Ministry of Mines and Energy, and CREG, in the amount
of $47,890 regarding application of CREG Resolutions 077 and 111 of 2000.
j. Administrative Court of Antioquia. Chivor S.A. E.S.P., has filed nullity and
redress lawsuits against ISA, the State, the Ministry of Mines and Energy,
and CREG, in the amount of $92,008 and USD32.5 million, and against XM,
the State, the Ministry of Mines and Energy, and CREG, in the amount of
51
Annual Report 2009
$24,780 for capacity charges, regarding application of CREG Resolutions
077 and 111 of 2000.
k. Administrative Court of Antioquia. Proelectrica & Cia S.C.A. E.S.P., has filed
nullity and redress lawsuits against ISA, the State, the Ministry of Mines
and Energy, and CREG, in the amount of $9,207 regarding application of
CREG Resolutions 034 and 038 of 2001.
l. Administrative Court of Antioquia. Termotasajero S.A. E.S.P., has filed
nullity and redress lawsuits against ISA, the State, the Ministry of Mines
and Energy, and CREG, in the amount of $135,848 regarding application of
CREG Resolutions 034 and 038 of 2001.
The lawsuits for application by ISA, as the Administrator of the Commercial
Settlement System –ASIC–, of CREG Resolutions 077 and 111 of 2000,
capacity charges, correspond to CREG’s change in calculation
methodology, which according to the plaintiff companies caused them
damages; the same happens with Resolutions 034 and 038 of 2001. The
agents consider that these provisions considerably reduce their income. In
such transactions, ISA acted as the agent of third parties, and in this way its
own equity would not be at stake in said processes. According to legal and
technical analysis, ISA has enough grounds to consider that it will be
released in these processes, because of as Administrator of the Commercial
Settlement System it should have applied CREG regulations, duties from
which it could not be released. Invoices billed and resolutions issued by ISA
to answer the appeals, strictly comply with the aforementioned
resolutions; therefore, they cannot be the cause of alleged damages
claimed by the plaintiffs. Eventually, in case of negative results, ISA could
request compensation or account settling between the market agents
taking part in these transactions, which would permit the Company’s
equity to remain unharmed. This claim also applies to XM subordinate,
the current Administrator of the Commercial Settlement System –ASIC–.
m.Gómez Cajiao y Asociados has filed a contractual lawsuit in the amount of
$2,000 requesting the nullity of act awarding Public Bid C002, the nullity of

contract.

claim against ISA for breach of contract in the amount of $32,018.
q. Administrative Court of Cundinamarca. KENZO JEANS S.A. and DIKAR S.A.
have filed a $7,000 claim against ISA for damages related to de-facto
easement.
r. Cundinamarca Administrative Tribunal, first section. ISA has sued the
Superintendency of Public Utilities for $923 for resolutions SSPD20082400007415 of March 26 of 2008 and SSPD-20082400018105 of June
18 of 2008, which imposed and confirmed a fine against ISA for the event

Liabilities / Assets
LEVERAGE (%)
Liabilities / Equity
RETURN ON ASSETS: Results explained mainly by better results obtained by
the affiliates.
RETURN ON EQUITY: Results explained mainly by better results obtained by
the affiliates and subsidiaries.
EBITDA/ OPERATING INTEREST (TIMES): Better EBITDA resulting from
increased revenues and optimization of expenses as well as lower interest
associated to drop in debt.
LIQUIDITY: Increase is due to increased marketable investments and reduced
short-term debt, resulting from share issuances.
Noteworthy is the fact that the electric energy transport business is supported
by a strong physical infrastructure; therefore, a large percentage of its
expenses (depreciation, provisions and amortization) do not imply cash
expenditure, which allows for coverage of short-term liabilities with cash
flow from the business.
INDEBTEDNESS: Reduction explained by debt payment and increased longterm investments, cash and marketable investments.
LEVERAGE: Decrease corresponds to increased equity resulting from share
issuance of ISA (Parent Company).
NOTE 25: CORPORATE CHANGES
ISA CAPITAL DO BRASIL S.A.
On February 28, 2008, the special shareholders’ meetings of ISA’s companies
ISA Participações do Brasil Ltda. and Companhia de Transmissão de Energia
Elétrica Paulista –CTEEP–, approved the incorporation of ISA Participações do
Brasil into CTEEP. Such corporate restructuring will permit improved cash
flow for CTEEP through availing of the fiscal benefit generated by
amortization of goodwill in CTEEP.

Annual Report 2009
NOTE 26: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS AND RELEVANT ISSUES
Tariff revision
At the beginning of the year 2009, CREG issued Resolution 011, to revise,
among other issues, the transmission activity remuneration scheme,
generating a reduction of unit costs recognized for the different
constructive units (nearing 14%), an increase in the useful life of each one
of them (from 25 years to 30 years for substation equipment and 40 years
for transmission lines), a remuneration rate increase (from 9% to 11.5%
annually in real terms before taxes), and a radical change in AOM expenses
remuneration (going from a fixed as-new replacement value –VRN–
percentage of assets to a scheme that aims to recognize efficient costs and
expenses incurred by the transmission companies).
Similarly, in the year 2008, CREG issued resolution 097, that modifies the
distributors’ remuneration scheme, and changes parameters relevant for
determining connection charges paid by distributors to the owners of the
connection assets (among them ISA and TRANSELCA).
These resolutions are not in force yet, (or only for some distributors), but they
are expected to become binding in the first semester of 2010, when they will
affect the Company’s financial situation: Resolution 011, because it will
directly apply to the revenue for use of the STN received by ISA, and
Resolution 097, because it becomes a reference to negotiate connection
contracts and the charges the energy distributors pay us.
Even though both resolutions will affect the company, their impact is not
expected to be significant.
The periodic tariff revision in CTEEP previously foreseen by ANEEL for July
of 2009 was postponed until July of 2010, according to Regulatory
Resolution No. 386. However, its application is retroactive as of July 1° of
2009.
Accounting model – convergence to IFRS
For the second quarter of 2010, the Superintendency of Domiciliary Public
Utilities –SSPD– has foreseen issuance of the resolution that will
incorporate the General Accounting Model in convergence with
international financial reporting standards. Such model might generate
important changes in the recognition, valuation, and disclosure of
financial information. The above notwithstanding, ISA S.A. E.S.P.,
TRANSELCA S.A. E.S.P., XM S.A. E.S.P., and INTERNEXA S.A. E.S.P., must
comply with the Public Accounting Regime established by Colombia’s
General Accounting Office.
In Brazil, laws 11638/07 and 11941/09 modified and introduced new
provisions to the law of corporations to enable the process of convergence
with international accounting standards in that country.
Autopistas de la Montaña Project
The State, represented by Instituto Nacional de Concesiones –INCO–, and
ISA, subscribed on January 28, 2010, the Inter-administrative agreement
that will permit development of the Autopistas de la Montaña Project.
Under such document ISA is bound to conduct engineering,
environmental, traffic, legal and financial studies as well as to construct,
operate, maintain and commercially exploit four road corridors with an
approximate length of 1,251 km.
69
Annual Report 2009
According to preliminary studies carried out by ISA, the project’s estimated
cost is $5,600,000 million, which shall be financed with contributions from:
the National Government ($1,000,000 million) according to CONFIS
document of January 27, 2010; the Antioquia Province Government
($600,000 million) as approved by the Antioquia Province Legislature; and the
City of Medellín ($400,000 million) as approved by the city Council.
Remaining $3,600,000 million will come from ISA’s capital contributions and
financing to be obtained for the project.
New Projects
On September 15, 2009, the Mining and Energy Planning Unit –UPME– under
public bidding awarded ISA the construction of works for electric
interconnection of El Bosque project. ISA will be responsible for
constructions, assembly, putting into operation, administration, operation
and maintenance of El Bosque 220 kV substation and associated transmission
lines. The project’s expected date for start of operations is May of 2011.
Road concessions in Chile
At the end of 2009, ISA reached an agreement with Spanish Cintra
Infraestructuras to acquire 60% of the interest such company held in Cintra
Chile Ltda., a company that controls five road concessions in Chile. The
transaction for the 60% amounts to 7,150,000 Unidades de Fomento,
equity value, equivalent to approximately USD300 million (exchange rate
and UF as of December 22 to be updated upon closing). ISA has a purchase
option and Cintra a sale option for the remaining 40% of capital.
The effectiveness of such transaction is subject to the notices,
authorizations and registrations required in Spain, Colombia, Chile and
any other jurisdiction in which the participants are present.
Authorization to establish DERIVEX S.A.
In Resolution 2001 of 2009, the Colombian Financial Superintendency has
authorized ISA’s affiliate, XM, and the Colombian Stock Exchange to establish
Administradora de Sistemas de Negociación de Valores “DERIVEX S.A.”, a
corporation whose purpose will be the negotiation and recording of
operations with financial derivatives with electric energy, gas, fuel and/or
other energy commodities as underlying assets.
New Political Constitution of the Bolivian State
A New Political Constitution was promulgated on February 07, 2009.
Among other issues, the new constitution provides that “it is the duty of
the State, at all government levels, to provide basic services through
public, mixed-economy, cooperative or communal entities. In the case of
electricity, service can be provided under agreements with the private
sector. Service provision must be effected under criteria of universality,
responsibility, accessibility, continuity, quality, efficiency, efficacy,
equitable tariffs, necessary coverage, participation and social control.
The New Political Constitution of the State shall be implemented through
promulgation of regulatory legal provisions. To date, it is not possible to
determine the effect of the New Constitution, if any, on the future
activities of the corporation.
Bond issues in CTEEP
On December 19, 2009, CTEEP issued through book building, 54,860 bonds in
two series for a total of BRL 548,600. Funs were actually received in January of
2010. Interest for the two series shall be paid semiannually on December 15
and July 15 of each year, beginning on July 15, 2010.
70
Annual Report 2009
Dividend payment in CTEEP
On January 11, 2010, CTEEP’s Administration Council approved payment of
BRL 161 in dividends corresponding to earnings of 2009, which will be paid as
of January 22, 2010.
Restructuring of ISA Capital do Brasil Bonds
On February 05, 2010, the Board of Directors of ISA approved restructuring
of the foreign-currency debt of its affiliate ISA Capital do Brasil, and as part
of the process, to present tender offer to repurchase bonds maturing in
2017 for up to USD354 million.
On March 08, 2010 ended the tender offer to repurchase bonds maturing
in 2017 issued by ISA Capital do Brasil abroad for USD354 million (8.800%
Senior Notes due 2017). 91.06% of total bonds were redeemed, equivalent
to USD322.3 million.
At the Special Shareholders’ Meeting held on March 09, 2010, the
following issues were approved in the terms of the proposal of the
Administration Council dated March 08, 2010: (i) Increase the Company’s
capital stock by BRL 840,000,017.43 of which, BRL 420,000.01 will be
earmarked for capital stock and BRL 839,580,017.42 for the Company's
capital reserve account, through creation and issuance of 415,691,162
redeemable preferred shares entitled to accumulated fixed dividend,
which were subscribed and paid for on such date. The capital stock
increases then from BRL 839,778,000.00 to BRL 840,198,000.01, divided
into 1,256,316,162 shares; (ii) reduce the mandatory dividend; (iii) The
change in the company’s bylaws in order to include the above-mentioned
modifications was carried out through a Shareholders Agreement
between the company’s preferred and regular shareholders.
Increase in capitalizations
An increase in capital stock of Empresa Propietaria de la Red –EPR– was
subscribed in Panama, on December 10, 2009, through minute No. 8 of the
Board of Directors. To ISA, holder of a ninth of shares, it means an increase of
875 shares for a total of 6,500. Such variation implies USD875,000 capital
contribution, for which a payment term until March 31 of 2010 was agreed.
Interconexión Eléctrica Colombia-Panamá -ICPCapital increase for ICP in the amount of USD875,000 was carried out in
February of 2010.

Notes to the Financial Statements
AT DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008
(Amounts expressed in millions of Colombian Pesos and original currencies)
I. GENERAL NOTES
NOTE 1: CORPORATE PURPOSE
Interconexión Eléctrica S.A. E.S.P., –ISA– was incorporated by public deed No.
3057 of the Notary Public Office No. 8 of Bogotá on September 14, 1967.
The Company was split off by Public Deed No. 230 of the Single Notary Public
Office of Sabaneta, dated April 4, 1995.
On December 1, 1995, by public deed No. 808 of the Single Notary Public
Office of Sabaneta, and according to the provisions of the Domiciliary Public
Utilities Law (Law 142 of 1994) the corporation changed its legal nature and
became a state public utility corporation constituted by state institutions, of
national order, ascribed to the Ministry of Mines and Energy, and subject to
the legal regime established by Law 142 of 1994. Based on Law 142 of 1994,
the Company changed its name to Interconexión Eléctrica S.A. E.S.P.; it can
also use the initials ISA S.A. E.S.P.
On November 22, 1996, by Public Deed No. 746 of the Single Notary Public
Office of Sabaneta, ISA changed its legal nature to a mixed-ownership public
utility corporation of the national order, ascribed to the Ministry of Mines and
Energy, and subject to the legal regime established by Law 142 of 1994. This
process was completed on January 15, 1997, with the arrival of private
investment.
As provided by the Constitutional Court in decision C-736 of September 19,
2007, ISA has a special legal nature and is defined as a decentralized mixedownership public utility company that is part of the executive branch under a
special legal regime of private law.
ISA’s main corporate purpose is:
1. The operation and maintenance of its own transmission network.
2. The expansion of the national interconnection grid.
3. The planning and operation coordination of the resources of the National
Interconnection System.
89
14/03/2010
Annual Report 2009
4. The administration of the financial settlement system and trading of
energy in the wholesale energy market.
5. The development of telecommunications systems, activities and services.
6. The direct and indirect participation in activities and services related to
the transport of other energy sources, except for those restricted by law.
7. The provision of technical services in activities related to its corporate
purpose and professional services required by the group’s companies
8. The development for third parties of any other activity related to the
provision of electric power and telecommunications services within the
regulation in force.
9. The direct and indirect participation in activities, services and investments
related to engineering works.
Branches
Peru ISA Branch
On September 4, 2002, ISA established a branch in Peru to execute the
operation and maintenance agreement for the 220 kV CarhuamayoParagsha-Vizcarra and 138 kV Aguaytía-Pucallpa transmission lines
subscribed between ISA and ISA Perú S.A. The branch’s term is indefinite; it
has no legal personality and does not carry out any activities independently
from ISA. It is an extension of the Company in Peru.
Argentina ISA Branch
ISA established a branch in Argentina on January 24, 2007. The proceedings
were carried out at the General Justice Inspection, an official body in charge
of Mercantile Register. Creation of this branch originated in the fact that
corporations incorporated outside of Argentina willing to have a business
presence in that country, must have a registered office there. This branch is
not in commercial operation.
NOTE 2: BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2.1 INDIVIDUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The individual financial statements of ISA are the basis for dividend
distributions and other appropriations; assets, liabilities, equity or results of
subsidiaries are not consolidated. However, for legal reasons the Company is
required to present separate consolidated financial statements to the annual
Shareholders’ Meeting for approval.
2.2 CLASSIFICATION OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Assets and liabilities are classified according to their use or degree of
realization, demand or liquidation, in terms of time and value.
Accordingly, current assets and liabilities (short-term) are understood as such
amounts that will be realizable or demandable, respectively, within a term
not longer than one year.
2.3 ADJUSTMENTS FOR INFLATION
Until December 31, 2000, non-monetary assets and liabilities and
shareholders’ equity, except for the surplus from revaluation of assets and
90
Annual Report 2009
Income Statement accounts, were monetarily updated on a prospective basis,
using general consumer-price index (or Tax Year's Adjustment Percentages
–PAAG, for its Spanish initials–). The respective adjustments were recorded in
the income statement’s monetary correction account. As of January 1, 2001
the Colombian General Accounting Office –CGN–, through Resolution No.
364 of November 29, 2001, suspended the system of integral inflation
adjustments for accounting effects, without reverting the inflation
adjustments accounted until December 31, 2000.
According to Resolution No. 041 of 2004 and to External Circular Letter No.
056 of 2004, issued by the Colombian General Accounting Office, inflation
adjustment accounts were eliminated from the General Plan of Public
Accounting as part of the cost, thereby obligating to incorporate
accumulated amounts for adjustments until 2000. In order to comply with
regulations in force, since 2001, integral inflation adjustments continue to be
applied for tax effects, giving rise to differences that are recorded in the tax
memorandum accounts. Law 1111 of 2006 derogated integral inflation
adjustments for tax effects beginning in fiscal year 2007 (See Note 17.2).
2.4 MATERIALITY
Recognition and presentation of economic facts are made according to their
relative importance.
An economic fact is material when due to its nature or amount, knowing or
not knowing it, considering the circumstances, could significantly change the
economic decisions of the users of that information.
In preparing the financial statements, it was determined for presentation
purposes that an event would be material if it represented 5% of total assets,
current assets, total liabilities, current liabilities, working capital, equity, or income.
NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF MAIN ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AND PRACTICES
For the preparation and presentation of its financial statements, the
Company, as required by law, observes the Public Accounting General Plan
defined by the Colombian General Accounting Office –CGN–, the accounting
regulations issued by the Superintendency of Domiciliary Public Utilities
–SSPD– and other applicable regulation.
For keeping, preservation and custody of the accounting books and
supporting documents, the regulation applicable to support documents,
vouchers, and accounting books, established by the Colombian General
Accounting Office, is observed.
The Company’s Financial Statements are identified, classified, registered,
valued, prepared and disclosed in accordance with the accounting principles
of the CGN contained in Resolutions No. 354, 355 and 356 of September 5 of
2007, as amended, through which the Public Accounting Regime was
implemented in order to harmonize its provisions with the criteria
established by international accounting standards.
Following is a description of the main accounting policies and practices
adopted by the Company:
3.1 FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND BALANCES
Transactions in foreign currency are recorded at the applicable exchange
91
Annual Report 2009
rates in force on the date of the transaction. At the close of each year,
balances of assets and liabilities accounts are adjusted to current exchange
rates (See Note 4). Exchange differences resulting from asset balances (other
than controlled investments abroad) are recorded in the Income Statement.
With regard to liability accounts, only exchange differences that are not
imputable to costs of acquisition of assets are recorded in the Income
Statement. Exchange differences imputable to the acquisition cost of assets
include exchange differences while such assets are under construction or
installation, and until they become operational.
3.2 CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of preparing the statement of cash flows, marketable
investments redeemable within the next 90 days are considered to be cash
equivalents.
3.3 INVESTMENTS
Investments are recorded at cost and are updated in accordance with the
intention of realization, the availability of market information, and the
degree of control held over the issuing entity by applying methodologies that
approximate its value to economic reality. Methodologies to update their
value include stock exchange quotes, net present value to determine market
price or the security’s internal rate of return, the equity method, and the cost
method.
According to the new Public Accounting Regime, the Company’s investments,
for matters of their valuation, are classified in three categories: i) liquidity
management, including debt titles and securities, intended for profiting
from short-term price fluctuations; ii) investments with a political purpose,
including debt titles kept until maturity, or at least for one year from
purchase date; iii) and equity investments, including securities in controlled
and non-controlled companies.
In the Financial Statements, investments are classified as marketable and
long-term, and they are reported respectively within current and non-current
assets. The former include investments for liquidity management, and the
latter for equity investments in controlled and non-controlled companies.
Investments for liquidity management
Liquidity management investments in debt titles and securities, as well as
derivatives intended for liquidity management, are initially recorded at cost
and are updated monthly through methodology of the Colombian Financial
Superintendency. Changes arising from each valuation made in investments
for liquidity management are recognized in the income statement.
Financial derivative instruments
In order to reduce exposure to exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations of
financial liabilities with local and international commercial banks and
multilateral agencies and of bond issues, among others, the Company uses
derivative instruments such as swaps, forwards and options.
According to the rules issued by the Colombian General Accounting Office,
derivative instruments for hedging purposes are recognized for the amount
of the right or of the liability on the date of commencement of the contract,
are monthly updated using methodologies of recognized technical value,
and the difference is recorded as derivative valuation revenue or expense, as
the case may be.
92
Annual Report 2009
Investments with a political purpose
Investments with a political purpose include debt securities issued by local or
foreign entities acquired in compliance with macroeconomic policies or the
Company’s internal policies.
Investments for compliance with macroeconomic policies correspond to debt
titles acquired under agreed or mandatory subscription.
Investments to comply with the entity’s internal policies include investments
held to maturity and investments for sale, the latter understood as
investments held for at least one (1) year. In both cases, the intention to hold
the securities during the stated term, as well as the legal, contractual,
financial and operative capacity, are required.
Investments held to maturity are updated on the basis of the internal rate of
return foreseen in the methodologies adopted by the Colombian Financial
Superintendency.
EQUITY INVESTMENTS
a. Equity investment in controlled companies
Equity investments in controlled companies include investments made in
order to exercise or share control, as well as those in which the Company has
substantial influence, and long-term investments in which the public sector
holds over 50% direct or indirect participation. These investments are
accounted through the equity method, according to CGN Resolution No. 356
of 2007, amended by Resolution 145 of 2008. Under the equity method,
investment in subsidiaries and affiliates is recognized at cost, and is adjusted
through:
Credit or charge to the investment’s cost equal to the participation of the
Company in profits and losses of the subsidiary, with a matching entry in
the income statement.
Credit or charge to the investment equal to the participation of the
Company in the subsidiary’s equity variation with a matching entry in the
surplus from equity method account, in the event of an increase; in the
event of a decrease, as surplus from equity method until its exhaustion,
and the remaining difference in the income statement.
Credit or charge to the investment equal to the amount of dividends
received from the subsidiary that correspond to periods during which, ISA
applied the equity method.
If the difference between intrinsic value and book value of the investment
recorded on equity basis is:
Positive, re-appraisal of assets is increased, and the revaluation surplus
included in the equity accounts is credited.
Negative, re-appraisal of assets is reduced with a charge to the revaluation
surplus up to the amount available; any difference is recorded as a charge
to equity surplus, until exhaustion. Any additional deficit is recognized in
the income statement as a loss.
Investments in subordinated companies abroad are recorded on the basis of
their financial statements at December 31 of each year, translated into
93
Annual Report 2009
Colombian pesos, using the United States dollar as functional currency,
applying the provisions of International Accounting Standard 21. For the
translation of the Financial Statements the following is taken into account:
Balance sheet items are calculated using the closing exchange rate; income
statement items are calculated using the accumulated average exchange rate
for each month closing; net effect with respect to closing rate is recognized as
translation adjustment.
b. Equity investments in non-controlled companies
The other variable-income equity investments in non-controlled companies
that are not listed in stock exchanges are recorded at cost plus the dividends
received in shares. If at year’s end, the intrinsic value of investments is greater
or lower than the book value, a charge is recorded in the re-appraisals
account with a contra entry in re-appraisal surplus in equity, or a provision is
charged to the income statement, respectively.
3.4 ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS
On each quarter’s closing date, the associated credit risk of the accounts
receivable from customers and other debtors is examined in order to
determine the respective provisions, which include percentages between
10% and 100%, according to aging analysis and evaluations of the collection
of individual accounts, in accordance with the following criteria:
Description
Maturity
% Provision

100
Type
For the debts of companies subject to reorganization or under liquidation,
the provision for accounts receivable must be adjusted to one hundred
percent (100%) of non-performing accounts receivable, regardless of the
provision recorded for debt age.
3.5 INVENTORIES
Inventories are recorded at cost, and at end of the year, through a provision
charged to the income statement, are reduced to their sale value, if it is lower
than their book value. Spare parts, materials and other consumables are
valued by the weighted average method.
3.6 PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, which, where relevant,
may include:
a) financing costs associated to acquisition and construction of assets not in
operational conditions and,
b) until year 2000, inflation adjustments on costs, excluding capitalized
exchange differences and the portion of capitalized interest
corresponding to inflation.
Sales and retirements of such assets are discharged at their respective net
adjusted cost, and differences between sale price and net adjusted cost are
recorded in the income statement.
94
Annual Report 2009
In 2009, the Company concluded and implemented the study of useful life by
components, so as to comply with the attachment of Resolution 356 of 2007
of the Colombian General Accounting Office, establishing that depreciation
and amortization must be calculated for each asset individually considered;
however, when its components or parts have different useful lives, or provide
economic or potential service benefits of different rhythms, depreciation
shall be applied to each component.
Definition of components of the energy transmission system:
A component of a fixed asset is an element that can be regarded as a part of
another asset, but due to its own features, because of the function it serves,
and the type of strategies or activities developed along its technical service
life, can be treated as an independent asset.
Materials with high inventory turnover shall not be classified as fixed assets.
Based on CIGRE (International Council of Large Electric Systems) reference
statistics and ISA’s experience in terms of transmission grid, the average useful
life of transmission lines is estimated at a maximum of 63 years (2008: 40
years). 40 años) para los circuitos de transmisión de energía.
Depreciation is calculated over the asset’s cost by the straight-line method,
based on the estimated useful life of assets. For the purpose of depreciation
calculations, following is a list with the assets’ estimated useful life:
Asset / Component

Annual Report 2009
Maintenance expenditures of these assets are charged to the Income
Statement, while improvements and additions are added to their costs, since
they increase useful life, expand productive capacity and operational
efficiency, improve service quality, and permit significant cost reduction.
Repairs required because of attacks to the electric infrastructure are recorded
as extraordinary expenses in the period when the attacks occur and do not
increase the useful life originally assigned to the assets. Due to the difficulties
to insure this type or risk, these damages are accrued in the financial
statements as they occur and are not recorded on estimate basis.
Management, in accordance with their historical experience of losses by
attacks and the country’s political and security circumstances, includes in the
annual budget the resources considered enough to cover these losses.
Real property intended for generation of revenues from rent is recorded as
investment property.
Assets not being used in operations are classified as non-exploited assets, and
their depreciation is suspended.
3.7 DEFERRED CHARGES AND OTHER ASSETS
Deferred charges and other assets include prepaid expenses, deferred
charges and other assets. Prepaid expenses include mainly monetary items
such as insurance premiums and interest, which are amortized as they accrue.
Deferred charges and other assets include goodwill from acquisition of longterm investments, cost of acquisition of software, easements, tax to preserve
democratic security, bond underwriting commissions, legal stability
agreement premium, licenses and rights, from which future and quantifiable
economic benefits are expected to be obtained. It also includes deferred
taxes resulting from temporary differences between net income and tax
income.
Software is amortized on a straight-line basis over a maximum of three years.
Goodwill, bond underwriting commissions, legal stability agreement
premium, licenses and rights are amortized on a straight-line basis during the
periods over which their benefits are expected to be received, according to
the feasibility studies for their recovery.
Charges for studies and research of projects in pre-operational stage will be
treated as expenses and are not capitalized even when a subsequent decision
is made as to execute the project and when the project is intended for
internal purposes.
Useful life of intangibles can be indefinite or finite; It is indefinite when
there is no foreseeable limit for the period in which the asset is expected to
generate future economic benefits. it is finite when the period during which
economic benefits or service potential will be received can be estimated (see
note 10).
3.8 RE-APPRAISALS
Re-appraisals that are part of equity include:
3.8.1 The excess of the valuation (appraisals) of the main components of
property, plant and equipment over per-books net cost. Such appraisals
were determined by independent appraisers, in the case of real-estate
96
Annual Report 2009
property; by their market value, in the case of transport equipment;
and based on technical studies developed by employees of the
Company, in the case of other assets. These valuations shall be made at
least every three years, or when market conditions indicate that such
amounts have materially changed. (See Note 11).
3.8.2 The excess of intrinsic value (equity value) of long-term investments
over their net cost.
3.9 CURRENT INCOME TAX AND DEFERRED TAX
Income tax provision is calculated on the period’s ordinary net taxable
income, which is obtained from relevant revenues, costs and expenses.
The credit deferred tax is the lesser current tax calculated during the period,
resulting from the excess of tax depreciation and amortization over perbooks depreciation and amortization, when useful life, depreciation and
amortization methods for tax purposes differ from accounting ones, for
which differences are expected to be reverted in the future.
The debit deferred tax represents the temporary differences that have
generated a higher amount of current income tax. Basically, this includes
inflation adjustments on non-monetary depreciable and amortizable assets,
balances of provisions for doubtful accounts, retirement payments to
pensioners, and health, education and other benefits, among others, for
which differences are expected to be reverted in the future.
According to opinion No. 20061-57086 of CGN of January 31, 2006, the
Company has autonomy in defining the accounting principles regarding
deferred tax. Accordingly, ISA has considered, among others, inflation
adjustments recognized only for tax effects of depreciable fixed assets, as
temporary differences that result in the accrual of deferred tax, since these
generate a greater monetary correction income tax, increasing the income
tax payable, and are subsequently recovered during the following years as
the fixed assets are depreciated (See Notes 10 and 17.2).
The rates used for calculation of deferred taxes are the same as those at which
temporary differences are expected to be reverted.
3.10 LABOR LIABILITIES
Labor liabilities are adjusted at the end of each period on the basis of legal
provisions and labor agreements in force. An actuarial study is conducted
every year to determine pension liability, future health and education
benefits and retirement payments to pensioners. Retirement pension
payments are charged to the actuarial estimate account.
With respect to amortization of retirement pension liabilities for Colombian
subsidiaries, it must correspond to the value resulting from dividing the total
actuarial estimate pending amortization by the number of years remaining
to complete the term set by regulation in force, applicable to each particular
entity, and counted from the actuarial estimate closing date.
For ISA,
maximum time provided for by regulation is 30 years starting on December
31, 1994.
Regarding the methodology to amortize benefits and aids, the Company
amortizes 100% of actuarial liabilities, closely following international
accounting standards, as is the intention of the CGN.
97
Annual Report 2009
Accounting records for recognition of this liability and associated expenses
are carried out in accounts different from those in which actuarial estimates
are included.
3.11 NET INCOME PER SHARE
Net income per share is calculated on the annual weighted average number
of outstanding shares. In 2009, 1,077,678,853 (in 2008:1,075,661,374).
3.12 RECLASSIFICATIONS IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Certain amounts included in the financial statements at December 31, 2008
were reclassified to conform to the presentation of the financial statements
for 2009.
3.13 MEMORANDUM ACCOUNTS
Memorandum accounts include loans contracted but not disbursed,
contingencies resulting from claims and lawsuits, and guarantees granted
under loan agreements. They also include temporary and permanent
differences between accounting and tax amounts, which will be reasonably
reverted in time, and allow preparation of specific-purpose reports,
respectively.
Non-monetary memorandum accounts were adjusted for inflation until
December 31 of 2000, with charge to a contra memorandum account.
3.14 RECOGNITION OF REVENUE, COSTS AND EXPENSES
Revenue, costs and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. Revenue from
service provision is recognized during the contractual period or when services
are rendered. Amounts received to remunerate recovery of investments in
UPMES, as well as usage rights not accrued because their respective costs have
not been incurred or because the related services have not been rendered yet,
are recognized as deferred revenues. This deferred revenue is amortized over
the periods along which it accrues.
3.15 USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements according to accounting principles
generally accepted requires some estimates that affect the values of assets,
liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses reported in such periods. The actual
result of certain items may differ from such estimates.
3.16 OPERATING AND ADMINISTRATIVE LIMITATIONS AND
DEFICIENCIES
During 2009 and 2008, no operating or administrative limitations or
deficiencies were found that would significantly affect the normal
accounting processes, or the consistency and reliability of the accounting
figures.

(1) Re-appraisal of Empresa Propietaria de la Red -EPR-.
(2) Economic appraisal was conducted in 2008 for main components of property, plant and equipment, in compliance with the
provisions of the Public Accounting Regime - Resolution 354 of September 5 of 2007.
Technical appraisals of operational assets for Colombian subsidiaries were
made by using the technically recognized Straight-line Depreciated
Replacement Cost method approved by the Colombian General Accounting
Office as stated in number 18 of accounting procedure for recognition and
disclosure of facts related to property, plant and equipment, issued by
Resolution 356 of September 5, 2007. The methodology consists of
determining the present value of operational equipment , based on the
actual cost of an asset with the same characteristics that provides the same
service (the as-new replacement value –VRN–2), proportionally affected by
the remaining time of service (remaining useful life) with respect to the
useful life initially established. This criterion is applied to every specialized3
asset that ISA has in operation for energy transmission (use and connection).
Market value is used for non-specialized4 assets such as vehicles.
The following table details the re-appraisal of property, plant and
equipment:

Annual Report 2009
4.3% increase in re-appraisal in 2009 with respect to 2008, corresponds
basically to:
Re-appraisal of National Transmission System use and connection assets is
due mainly to the study of useful life by components, given that in 2008,
average useful life was 30 years for yard equipment, 14 years for protection
and automation, and 40 years for transmission lines. Average in 2009 was 34
years for yard equipment, 15 years for protection and automation systems,
and 63 years for transmission lines.
In land and buildings, re-appraisal corresponds to the incorporation of the
Manizales facilities to the accounting system. Asset returned by Manitex.
The Supervision and Maneuvers Center was fully depreciated in 2008;
investment was made in 2009 in workstations, mimic panel, and office
furnishings.

17.1 RETIREMENT PENSIONS AND AGREED LABOR BENEFITS
Retirement pensions
Under the labor agreements (individual and collective) subscribed, the
Company is required to pay pensions to employees who satisfy certain
conditions of age and length of service. However, the Social Security Institute
–ISS– and the pension management funds have assumed the greater part of
this obligation upon compliance with certain legal requirements.
118
Annual Report 2009
The present value for pension liability as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 was
determined using actuarial calculations that comply with the law and
specifically with labor contracts and collective bargaining agreements. The
main estimates used in the actuarial calculation were as follows:
Actual interest rate
Future increase of pensions and salaries
Number of people covered by the plan
2009
2008
4.80%
6.48%
433
4.80%
5.15%

On December 31, 2009, the Company had 619 (2008: 619) active employees,
of whom 31 (2008, 64) are covered by the pension plan provided in the
collective and individual agreements, while the remaining 588 (2008, 555) are
under the jurisdiction of Law 100 of 1993. The actuarial estimate covers active
personnel (31), retired personnel (343), surviving spouse pension benefit
substitutions (43), pension portion for which ISA is accountable (12) and
contingent personnel – retired personnel with more than 20 years of service
(4).
As of December 31, 2008, ISA had amortized 69.52% (2008: As of December
31, 2008, ISA had amortized 76.08% (2007, 76.08%) of the pension liability
projected to cover monthly pension payments; amortization is calculated
with methodology set forth in Resolution No. 356 of September 5 of 2007
issued by CGN.
Amortization corresponds to the value resulting from dividing the total
actuarial estimate pending amortization by the number of years remaining
to complete the term set, counted from the actuarial estimate closing date.
The movements in the actuarial estimate at December 31 are as follows:

During 2009, pension payments totaled $12,164(2008: $10,737).
Agreed Fringe Benefits
In the calculation of pension liabilities, the Company included agreed fringe
benefits received by pensioners in addition to those required by legal
regulations. This practice was adopted in 2005 as a prudent policy seeking
alignment with International Financial Reporting Standards –IFRS-.
The calculation included fringe benefits agreed in individual and collective
labor agreements to which present and future pensioners are entitled, such

as: education and health (supplementary plans and aid for health expenses)
and pension contributions. Amounts and amortization are as follows:

Benefits and aids were 100% amortized, closely following international

associated expenses are carried out in accounts different from those in which
actuarial estimates are included.
17.2 INCOME TAX
Income tax and surtaxes
Tax regulations applicable to the Company provide:
a. Taxable income is subject to 33% rate.
b. The basis to determine income tax for the year shall not be lower than 3%
of net fiscal equity on the last day of the preceding taxable year, refined
with the items duly authorized by tax regulations in force.
c. Law 863 of 2003 established that income tax payers could deduct 30% of
the effective investments made only in productive real fixed assets.
According to changes made in Law 1111 of 2006, starting 2007, the
percentage is 40% and its application does not result in income taxable
for shareholders. After applying this regulation, and based on
investments made by the Company during the year, the period’s ordinary
net taxable income was decreased by $28,868 (2008, $16,904).
d. As of 2004, income tax payers performing transactions with foreign
related or associated parties and/or with residents of countries
considered as tax haven, are required, for income tax purposes, to
determine their regular and special revenues, costs and deductions, assets
and liabilities, taking into consideration for these transactions the prices
and profit margins of the market. At this time, the Company’s
management and its counsels have not concluded the updating study for
2009; however, based on the satisfactory results of the study conducted
for 2008, their opinion is that no significant additional income tax
provisions shall be required as a result of the study.
e. As a result of application of Resolution No. 356 of September 5 of 2007 of
Colombia’s General Accounting Office, exchange rate fluctuations, in
updating through equity method of equity investments in controlled
entities, are considered equity variations until disposal of the investment,
and therefore, affect equity; however, when surplus from equity method
cannot absorb equity decreases accumulated in equity entries different
from results, the excess must be recognized as expense in the form of
provision until the book value of the investment is equal to zero.

Annual Report 2009
Pursuant to the provisions of fiscal regulation on investment in foreign
currency, as of application of the above accounting rule, a conciliatory
entry between accounting and fiscal results is produced arising from the
exchange difference of investments in foreign currency in controlled
entities.
f.
In 2005, Decision 578 of the Andean Community of Nations –CAN–
entered into force. This decision seeks to avoid double taxation of the
income earned in any of the member countries using an exoneration
mechanism. Based on this decision and on the opinions of tax advisors,
the income earned in CAN member countries are considered to be tax
exempt.
g. On June 27, 2008, ISA and the Ministry of Mines and Energy subscribed the
legal stability agreement for the activity of electric energy transmission
during 20 years. The agreement provides for legal stability regarding
income tax regulations, among which: income tax rate, deduction of
inflation component of financial expenses, special 40% deduction for
new investments in new productive real fixed assets, tax discount on VAT
paid in import of machinery for energy transport, presumptive income
equal to 3% of net fiscal equity, and transitoriness of equity tax.
This agreement guarantees that, in the event of adverse modification to
the regulations stabilized under the agreement, unmodified regulations
shall continue to apply during the term of the agreement.
The reconciliation between accounting income and taxable income for 2009
and 2008 is as follows:
Income before taxes
Plus – items that increase distributable income:
Investments exchange difference
Amortization of goodwill
Write-off and tax provision for accounts receivable
Net cost of assets sold
Cash dividends received
Non-deductible provisions
Non-deductible costs and expenses

Annual Report 2009
The income tax returns for 2008 and 2007 are subject to the review and
approval by the tax authorities. The Company’s management and its legal
counsels consider that the amounts accounted as income tax payable suffice
to pay any liability that could be determined for such years.
Equity tax
Under Law 1111 of 2006, equity tax was established for fiscal years 2007,
2008, 2009 and 2010, payable by individuals, legal entities and
unincorporated associations who pay income tax. For matters of this tax,
wealth is equivalent to the obligor’s total net fiscal equity that exceeds $3,000
million.
This tax is calculated on the basis of net fiscal equity as of January 1 of 2007, at
a rate of 1.2%.
During the first semester of 2009, the management, based on article 25 of
Law 1111 of 2006, and with approval of the Shareholders’ Meeting of March
30 of 2007, authorized recording the equity tax of year 2009 and 2008 for
$20,173 against the equity revaluation account.
Tax Law Amendment of 2009
Law 1370 of December 30 of 2009, amended tax law as follows:
a. A new tax was levied for the year 2011, valid until 2014, to be paid by legal
persons and individuals, and by unincorporated associations who pay
income tax. For matters of this tax, wealth is equivalent to the obligor’s
total net fiscal equity that exceeds $3,000 million. This tax’s rate is 2.4%
when the taxpayer’s net fiscal equity ranges between three and five
thousand million pesos ($3,000 – $5,000) and 4.8% when it exceeds five
thousand million pesos ($5,000). The tax corresponding to each taxpayer is
to be paid between the years 2011 and 2014.
b. The amount of the special deduction for investment in real, productive,
fixed assets included in article 158-3 of the Tax Law was reduced from forty
(40%) to thirty percent (30%).
Considering that ISA has subscribed a legal stability agreement stabilizing,
among others, the above mentioned rules for energy transmission
activities, it must only comply with the provisions of the tax law
amendment in those activities different from energy transmission.

shares, of which, 56,394,211 were successfully underwritten at the end of
2007 and the remaining 32,016,520 in December of 2009.
This offer was carried out through book building process, which was
approved by the Colombian Financial Superintendency by Decree 3780 of
October 1 of 2007. Under such scheme, investors proposed both the price and
the amount of shares they will be interested in buying. The issue was 2.8x

RESERVES
Legal reserve
The law requires the Company to appropriate 10% of annual net income as
a legal reserve until the balance of the reserve is equal to 50% of
subscribed capital. This mandatory reserve may not be distributed prior to
the liquidation of the Company, but may be used to absorb or reduce net
losses of the year. Any balance of the reserve in excess of 50% of subscribed
capital is at the disposal of the shareholders.
Mandatory reserve for tax purposes
The Shareholders’ Meeting approved appropriation of this reserve from
net income, in compliance with Article 130 of the Tax Law, in order to
obtain tax deductions for depreciation in excess of book depreciation. As
legally provided, this reserve can be released whenever subsequent
accounting depreciation exceeds tax depreciation, or when the assets
giving rise to the incremental amount deducted are sold.
Reserve for repurchase of shares
Includes $38,100 special reserve to acquire own shares held by EPM.
Reserve for reinforcement of equity
The Shareholders’ Meeting approved an occasional reserve in accordance
with Article 47 of the bylaws. This reserve was ordered so that the
Company could retain its solid financial position and maintain the financial
indicators required by rating agencies, in order to obtain the investment
degree and comply with contractual commitments to lenders.
Reserve for rehabilitation and replacement of STN assets
The Shareholders Meeting held on March 30, 2000, approved $24,933
reserve for the rehabilitation and replacement of assets of the National
Transmission System, and on March 18, 2002, approved an additional
reserve of $12,502.

20.1 CLAIMS AND LAWSUITS
ISA currently appears as party, as a defendant, plaintiff or as an intervening
third party, of judicial processes of administrative, civil and labor nature.
None of the processes in which the Company appears as a defendant or as an
intervening third party could affect its stability. In its own name, it has taken
the necessary judicial measures to carry out its corporate purpose and the
defense of its interests.
Below is the information regarding the judicial processes which the Company
is a party to:
a. At December 31, 2006, ISA has filed administrative claims against:

c. Cundinamarca Administrative Tribunal, first Section. ISA has sued the

administrative acts that prevent ISA (ASIC) from exercising its rights to limit
power supplies and the collection of billings to Empresas Públicas de
Caucasia.
d. Administrative Tribunal of Antioquia. ISA has filed a nullity and redress
lawsuit against the tax authorities (Dirección de Impuestos y Aduanas
Nacionales –DIAN–), for $4,780, related to default interest in favor of ISA,
resulting from the non-timely reimbursing excess income tax paid in 1995.
The process is currently awaiting judgment from the Tribunal.
e. Administrative Tribunal of Antioquia. ISA challenged Resolution 1233 of
2001, by which the Municipality of San Carlos requested payment of taxes
by the public space occupation for $1,839 for the year 2000.
f. Nullity and redress process No. 064. Flores III LTDA & CIA. S.C.A. E.S.P., has
sued the State – Ministry of Mines and Energy, CREG, ISA and
Electrificadora del Caribe S.A. E.S.P.– Declaration of nullity of CREG
Resolution 031 of July 22, 1999, by which the appeal presented by
Electricaribe S.A. was accepted, releasing the Company from paying
amounts invoiced by ISA for the restriction of the 220-110 kV
autotransformer. Declaration of nullity of alleged administrative act
resulting from failure to answer within the legal term a request for direct
repeal of the foregoing resolution and award payment of $2,343.
g. Administrative Tribunal of Antioquia. Termocandelaria has filed a nullity
and redress lawsuit against ISA, the Nation, the Ministry of Mines and
Energy, and CREG, in the amount of $20,794 regarding CREG Resolutions
034, 038 and 094 of 2001.
h. Administrative Tribunal of Antioquia. Central Hidroeléctrica de Betania
S.A. E.S.P., has filed nullity and redress lawsuits against ISA, the State, the
Ministry of Mines and Energy, and CREG, in the amount of $58,598 and
USD15,373,890, for capacity charges - CREG Resolutions 077 and 111 of
2000.
i Administrative Court of Antioquia. Emgesa S.A. E.S.P., has filed nullity and
redress lawsuits against ISA, the Nation, the Ministry of Mines and Energy,
and CREG, in the amount of $193,662 and USD82.4 million regarding
application of CREG Resolutions 077 and 111 of 2000.
j. Administrative Court of Antioquia. Chivor S.A. E.S.P., has filed nullity and
redress lawsuits against ISA, the State, the Ministry of Mines and Energy,
and CREG, in the amount of $92,008 and USD32.5 million for capacity
charges - CREG Resolutions 077 and 111 of 2000.
k. Administrative Court of Antioquia. Proelectrica & Cia S.C.A. E.S.P., has filed
nullity and redress lawsuits against ISA, the State, the Ministry of Mines

CREG Resolutions 034 and 038 of 2001.
128
Annual Report 2009
l. Administrative Court of Antioquia. Termotasajero S.A. E.S.P., has filed
nullity and redress lawsuits against ISA, the State, the Ministry of Mines
and Energy, and CREG, in the amount of $135,848 regarding application of
CREG Resolutions 034 and 038 of 2001.
The lawsuits for application by ISA, as the Administrator of the Commercial
Settlement System –ASIC–, of CREG Resolutions 077 and 111 of 2000,
capacity charges, correspond to CREG's change in calculation
methodology, which according to the plaintiff companies caused them
damages; the same happens with Resolutions 034 and 038 of 2001. The
agents consider that these provisions considerably reduce their income. In
such transactions, ISA acted as the agent of third parties, and in this way its
own equity would not be at stake in said processes. According to legal and
technical analysis, ISA has enough grounds to consider that it will be
released in these processes, because of as Administrator of the Commercial
Settlement System it should have applied CREG regulations, duties from
which it could not be released. Invoices billed and resolutions issued by ISA
to answer the appeals, strictly comply with the aforementioned
resolutions; therefore, they cannot be the cause of alleged damages
claimed by the plaintiffs. Eventually, in case of negative results, ISA could
request compensation or account settling between the market agents
taking part in these transactions, which would permit the Company's
equity to remain unharmed.
m. Gómez Cajiao y Asociados has filed a contractual lawsuit in the amount of
$2,000 requesting the nullity of act awarding Public Bid C002, the nullity of
BL98 contract, and redress of its right as proponent.
n. Empresas Públicas de Medellín has filed a nullity and redress lawsuit
against ISA, the State, the Ministry of Mines and Energy, and CREG, in the
amount of $947 for recording of customer metering points.
o. Ninth Circuit Civil Court, Barranquilla. Claudia Andrea Córdoba and
Fabiana Zanín Córdoba have filed a tort claim against ISA and other for
$4,000 for the accident of a family member during the performance of a
contract.
p. Administrative Court of Antioquia. UTE APS has filed tort claim against ISA
for contract breach for 32,018.
q. Administrative Court of Cundinamarca. UTE APS has filed KENZO JEANS
S.A. and DIKAR S.A. have filed a $7,000 claim against ISA for damages
related to easement.
r. Cundinamarca Administrative Tribunal, first section. ISA has sued the
Superintendency of Public Utilities for $923 for resolutions SSPD20082400007415 of March 26 of 2008 and SSPD-20082400018105 of June
18 of 2008, which imposed and confirmed a fine against ISA for the event
happened on April 26, 2007.
s. State Court, Fifth Delegated Prosecutor's Office. ISA has filed a request to
be accepted as civil claimant in the criminal case against Orlando Antonio
Salas Villa for $7,418, corresponding to amount payable for easement.
As of December 31, 2009, there exist other labor, civil and administrative
claims pending decision for a total amount close to $2,500 that are related to
the normal course of operations of ISA.

In 2009, to record operating and production costs (Class 7) and sales costs
(Class 6), the Company used costing methods and procedures established in
Resolution No. 20051300033635 of 2005 of the Superintendency of
Domiciliary Public Utilities.
The costing system is the “Activities-Based Costing”, where the products
offered by each service or business are the result of a series of operating
processes that interact sequentially, for which reason its structure or costs
map will call for observation of the progressive flow of operations or tasks to
constitute activities, the former to conform processes, and the latter to
deliver a utility.
This system considers that expenses accrued in each area of administrative
responsibility should be assigned to the business or service unit in accordance
with the activities (support process) developed by these areas.
No internal or external advisors with the main function of processing affairs
with public or private entities, or advice on or prepare studies for such effect
were hired in 2009.

RETURN ON ASSETS: Results explained mainly by better results obtained
by the affiliates.
RETURN ON EQUITY: Results explained mainly by better results obtained
by the affiliates.
EBITDA/OPERATING INTEREST (TIMES): Improved due to Better EBITDA
resulting from increased revenues and optimization of expenses as well as
lower interest associated to drop in debt.
LIQUIDITY: Increase is due to increased marketable investments and
reduced short-term debt, resulting from share issuances.
Noteworthy is the fact that the electric energy transmission business is
supported by a strong physical infrastructure; therefore, a large
percentage of its expenses (depreciation, provisions and amortization) do
not imply cash expenditure, which allows for coverage of short-term
liabilities with cash flow from the business.
INDEBTEDNESS: Reduction is explained by debt payment and increase in
long-term investments, cash and marketable investments.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE TURNOVER: Its improvement is due to the
decrease in accounts receivable from construction services customers.

ISA with non-related third parties, i.e. the market conditions.
Application of transfer pricing introduced by Law No 788 of December of
2002, started in January 1, 2004. This law states that transactions with related
parties abroad should be priced at the same prices that would be applied to
independent third parties.

Annual Report 2009
NOTE 27: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
At the beginning of the year 2009, CREG issued Resolution 011, to revise,
among other issues, the transmission activity remuneration scheme,
generating a reduction of unit costs recognized for the different
constructive units (nearing 14%), an increase in the useful life of each one
of them (from 25 years to 30 years for substation equipment and 40 years
for transmission lines), a remuneration rate increase (from 9% to 11.5%
annually in real terms before taxes), and a radical change in AOM expenses
remuneration (going from a fixed as-new replacement value –VRN–
percentage of assets to a scheme that aims to recognize efficient costs and
expenses incurred by the transmission companies).
Similarly, in the year 2008, CREG issued resolution 097, that modifies the
distributors’ remuneration scheme, and changes parameters relevant for
determining connection charges paid by distributors to the owners of the
connection assets (among them ISA).
These resolutions are not in force yet, (or only for some distributors), but
they are expected to become binding in the first semester of 2010, when
they will affect the Company’s financial situation: Resolution 011, because
it will directly apply to the revenue for use of the STN received by ISA, and
Resolution 097, because it becomes a reference to negotiate connection
contracts and the charges the energy distributors pay us.
Even though both resolutions will affect the company, their impact is not
expected to be significant.
For the second quarter of 2010, the Superintendency of Domiciliary Public
Utilities-SSPD- has foreseen issuance of the resolution that will incorporate
the General Accounting Model in convergence with international
financial reporting standards. Such model might generate important
changes in the recognition, valuation, and disclosure of financial
information. The above notwithstanding, ISA must comply with the Public
Accounting Regime established by Colombia’s General Accounting Office.
The State, represented by Instituto Nacional de Concesiones –INCO–, and
ISA, subscribed on January 28, 2010, the Inter-administrative agreement
