The merger between Duquesne Light Holdings and the Macquarie consortium involved a cash buy-out in exchange for all common stock. As a result, it is a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Generally, shareholders will need to tabulate their cost basis in order to report a capital gain or loss on their federal income tax return. Shareholders can determine cost basis information by referencing their annual fourth quarter statements. It is recommended that a tax advisor be consulted for help in this matter.

Although neither Duquesne Light Holdings, nor Wells Fargo can provide actual cost basis, historical dividend and stock-price information can be found at the following links:
