Dear Stockholders,
Thank you for your investment in Tortoise Power Energy Infrastructure Fund, Inc. (NYSE: TPZ). The financial statements included in this third quarter report reflect the one-month period from our commencement of operations on July 31, 2009 through Aug. 31, 2009.
Investment Overview
Infrastructure represents the basic physical framework upon which economic productivity depends. Historically, infrastructure has provided investors attractive risk-adjusted returns with lower volatility than the general equity market. TPZ focuses on one of the most attractive segments of the infrastructure asset class, which covers the transportation and generation of power and energy throughout the United States. As the population grows, so will consumption of the power and energy delivered by companies in this segment, such as those in which TPZ invests. The regulated nature and long lives of these assets makes them relatively stable through economic cycles, as all other areas of infrastructure are dependent on the power and energy sectors. In addition, the equities held by TPZ have historically provided a hedge against inflation and low correlation to both debt and the broad market.
Investment Progress
We completed our initial public offering of 6,850,000 shares at $20.00 on July 31, 2009. The initial net proceeds from the offering of approximately $130.6 million were fully invested as of Sept. 17, 2009, which was about a month earlier than we anticipated.
Our goal is to provide stockholders with a high level of current income, with a secondary objective of capital appreciation. On Sept. 14, 2009, we announced our first three monthly distributions, each equal to 12.5 cents per share or $1.50 annualized. These distributions reflect a 7.5 percent yield on the IPO price of $20 per share.
Investment Strategy and Process
TPZ offers a closed-end fund strategy of investing in fixed income and equity securities issued by power and energy infrastructure companies. In targeting power and energy infrastructure companies, we intend to invest up to 40 percent of TPZs total assets in equities, to provide exposure to growth prospects and potentially benefit from inflation mitigation. Our MLP investments will be limited to 25 percent under regulated investment company rules that require we meet certain source-of-income, asset diversification and annual distribution requirements. Of the total assets of the fund, we expect to invest at least 60 percent in fixed income securities. Not more than 25 percent will be invested in high yield securities, and we expect to achieve a weighted-average duration of bonds between 4 and 6 years. We anticipate using leverage, limited to 20 percent of total assets at the time of incurrence to take advantage of market opportunities. As of Oct. 12, 2009, we have approximately $29 million outstanding on our $35 million bank credit facility. We plan to hedge a portion of our floating interest rate exposure in order to minimize risk.
Our investment process is focused on identifying companies with seasoned management teams focused on operating essential infrastructure assets with high barriers to entry. Historically, due to the long-lived nature of the assets, these companies have shown that they can generate consistent revenues and predictable cash flows, while maintaining stable operating cost structures.
Market Commentary
Since the market close on July 28, 2009, TPZs investment universe has appreciated significantly. The economy has shown signs of strengthening and perceived rates of future defaults have fallen. Increased investor confidence has manifested itself in the form of increased risk tolerance and buying of both corporate equity and fixed income securities. Five key indexes we use to monitor TPZs performance have appreciated between 2.5 percent and 6.5 percent since the funds inception, as illustrated in the chart below.
With recent advances in the market, yields have declined, making it more difficult to invest TPZ proceeds at initially anticipated rates. For example, the yield of the Merrill Lynch U.S. Energy Corporate Index was 5.7 percent on July 28, 2009 and 5.0 percent on Sept. 30, 2009. The yields of these key indexes associated to TPZ portfolio universe were lower by a similar amount.
Despite this substantial headwind, and as mentioned earlier, we were able to announce the first three monthly distributions of $0.125 or a 7.5 percent yield on the IPO price of $20 per share, which we expect to achieve while keeping leverage capped at 20 percent and the weighted-average bond duration between four to six years.

Conclusion
We consider TPZ to be well positioned to provide our investors with attractive current income and exposure to growth. An investment in TPZ allows investors to capitalize on the upward-sloping trend in energy and electricity demand growth in companies that operate infrastructure essential to the U.S. economy.

Introduction
We include the Managements Discussion section in each quarterly report to provide you transparency and insight into the results of operations including comparative information to prior periods and trends. We also include a Key Financial Data page which provides quarterly and annual detail of our distributable cash flow (DCF) and other important metrics, including leverage and selected operating ratios. We hope that you find this discussion and financial data a useful supplement to the GAAP financial information included in this report. As this quarterly report is only for the initial stub period from the IPO through August 31, 2009, the financial results to discuss are limited. Our fiscal year report as of November 30, 2009, will include a complete discussion for the quarter ended November 30, 2009.
Overview
Tortoise Power and Energy Infrastructure Fund, Inc. (TPZ) completed its initial public offering and commenced operations on July 31, 2009. TPZ issued 6,850,000 shares at $20.00 per share for net proceeds after expenses of approximately $131 million. The initial proceeds were fully invested as of mid-September and we expect our leverage to be fully invested in the very near term.
TPZs primary investment objective is to provide a high level of current income, with a secondary objective of capital appreciation. We seek to provide our stockholders a vehicle to invest in a portfolio consisting primarily of securities issued by power and energy infrastructure companies. Power infrastructure operations use asset systems to provide electric power generation (including renewable energy), transmission and distribution. Energy infrastructure operations use a network of pipeline assets to transport, store, gather and/or process crude oil, refined petroleum products (including biodiesel and ethanol), natural gas or natural gas liquids. We believe the power and energy infrastructure sector provides stable and defensive characteristics throughout economic cycles. A majority of the investments are in fixed income securities with equities providing growth potential.
TPZ is a registered non-diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), and expects to qualify as a regulated investment company (RIC) under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). Tortoise Capital Advisors, L.L.C. (the Adviser) serves as investment adviser.
Critical Accounting Policies
The financial statements are based on the selection and application of critical accounting policies, which require management to make significant estimates and assumptions. Critical accounting policies are those that are both important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and require managements most difficult, complex, or subjective judgments. Our critical accounting policies are those applicable to the valuation of investments and certain revenue recognition matters as discussed in Note 2 in the Notes to Financial Statements.
Determining Distributions to Stockholders
Our portfolio generates cash flow from which we pay distributions to stockholders. We pay monthly distributions out of our DCF. Our Board of Directors reviews the distribution rate quarterly, and may adjust the monthly distributions throughout the year. On an annual basis, we intend to distribute capital gains realized during the fiscal year in the last fiscal quarter.
Determining DCF
DCF is simply income from investments less expenses. Income from investments includes the accrued interest from corporate bonds, cash distributions and paid-in-kind distributions from MLPs and related companies and dividends earned from short-term investments. The total expenses include current or anticipated operating expenses, leverage costs and current income taxes, if any. In the future, each will be summarized for you in the key financial data table on page 2 and discussed in more detail below.
The key financial data table will disclose the calculation of DCF. The difference between income from investments in the DCF calculation and total investment income as reported in the Statement of Operations, is reconciled as follows: (1) the Statement of Operations, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), recognizes distribution income from MLPs and common stock on their ex-dates, whereas the DCF calculation reflects distribution income on their pay dates; (2) GAAP recognizes that a significant portion of the cash distributions received from MLPs are treated as a return of capital and therefore excluded from investment income, whereas the DCF calculation includes the return of capital; (3) income from investments in the key financial data table include the value of dividends paid-in-kind (additional stock or MLP units), whereas such amounts are not included as income for GAAP purposes; and (4) the DCF calculation excludes the net amortization on our debt instruments.
Income from Investments
We seek to achieve our investment objectives by investing in income-producing fixed income and equity securities of companies that we believe offer attractive distribution rates. We evaluate each holding based upon its contribution to our investment income and its risk relative to other potential investments.
In future reports, we will report on income from investments as a percent of average total assets for the quarter as compared to the prior quarter and the prior year.
Expenses
We incur two types of expenses: (1) operating expenses, consisting primarily of the advisory fee; and (2) leverage costs. In future reports, we will report on operating expenses and leverage costs for the quarter as compared to the prior quarter and the prior year.
While the contractual advisory fee is 0.95 percent of average monthly managed assets, the Adviser has agreed to waive an amount equal to 0.15 percent of average monthly managed assets for year 1, 0.10 percent of average monthly managed assets for year 2 and 0.05 percent of average monthly managed assets for year 3 following the closing of the initial public offering.
Distributable Cash Flow
As outlined above, DCF is simply income from investments less expenses. In future reports, this section will report our DCF for the quarter as compared to the prior quarter and the prior year.
On September 14, 2009, we declared initial monthly distributions for the fourth fiscal quarter of $0.125 per share as set forth below. Based upon TPZs offering price of $20.00 per share, the annualized distribution rate is 7.50 percent.

2009 3rd Quarter Report | 3 |
Managements Discussion (Unaudited) (Continued) |
Taxation of our Distributions
We expect that distributions paid on common shares will generally consist of: (i) investment company taxable income (which includes, among other items, taxable interest, dividends and the excess of any short-term capital gains over net long-term capital losses) including dividend income from domestic corporations that under current law is eligible for a reduced tax rate, which we refer to as qualified dividend income; (ii) long-term capital gain (net gain from the sale of a capital asset held longer than 12 months over net short-term capital losses) and (iii) return of capital.
We intend to distribute all capital gains, if any, at least annually. If, however, we elect to retain any capital gains, TPZ will be subject to U.S. capital gains taxes. The payment of those taxes will flow-through to stockholders as a tax credit to apply against their U.S. income tax payable on the deemed distribution of the retained capital gain.
Detailed individual tax information for each fiscal year will be reported to Stockholders on Form 1099 after year-end.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
TPZ had total assets of $136 million at quarter-end and net assets of $130 million. Subsequent to quarter-end, we completed the investment of the IPO proceeds. In conjunction with investment of these proceeds, we entered into a $35.0 million unsecured credit facility maturing September 14, 2010. Under the terms of the credit facility, U.S. Bank, N.A. serves as a lender and the lending syndicate agent on behalf of other lenders participating in the credit facility. The credit facility has a variable annual interest rate equal to the one-month LIBOR plus 2.00 percent and a non-use fee equal to an annual rate of 0.25 percent. We currently have drawn on the facility to employ leverage in an amount not to exceed 20 percent of total assets at time of incurrence. It is our intent to implement a program to fix the rates on all or a portion of our leverage for an extended period of time.
TPZ is using leverage to acquire investments consistent with our investment philosophy. The terms of our leverage are governed by regulatory asset coverage requirements that arise from the use of leverage. Under the 1940 Act, we may not pay distributions to our common stockholders if we do not meet a 300 percent asset coverage ratio for debt after payment of the distribution. Under the agreement with our bank lenders, if portfolio values decline such that we no longer meet the required acceptable asset base, we must repay a portion of our bank line until we meet the requirement.
As disclosed in Section 18 of the 1940 Act, the 300 percent asset coverage ratio for debt is equal to total assets less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by debt divided by debt.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) August 31, 2009 |
1. Organization
Tortoise Power and Energy Infrastructure Fund, Inc. (the Company) was organized as a Maryland corporation on July 5, 2007, and is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). The Companys primary investment objective is to provide a high level of current income, with a secondary objective of capital appreciation. The Company seeks to provide its stockholders with a vehicle to invest in a portfolio consisting primarily of securities issued by power and energy infrastructure companies. The Company commenced operations on July 31, 2009. The Companys stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol TPZ.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
A. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, recognition of distribution income and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
B. Investment Valuation
The Company primarily owns securities that are listed on a securities exchange or over-the-counter market. The Company values those securities at their last sale price on that exchange or over-the-counter market on the valuation date. If the security is listed on more than one exchange, the Company will use the price from the exchange that it considers to be the principal exchange on which the security is traded. Securities listed on the NASDAQ will be valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price, which may not necessarily represent the last sale price. If there has been no sale on such exchange or over-the-counter market on such day, the security will be valued at the mean between the bid and ask price on such day.
The Company may invest up to 15 percent of its total assets in restricted securities. Restricted securities are subject to statutory or contractual restrictions on their public resale, which may make it more difficult to obtain a valuation and may limit the Companys ability to dispose of them. Investments in private placement securities and other securities for which market quotations are not readily available will be valued in good faith by using fair value procedures approved by the Board of Directors. Such fair value procedures consider factors such as discounts to publicly traded issues, time until conversion date, securities with similar yields, quality, type of issue, coupon, duration and rating. If events occur that will affect the value of the Companys portfolio securities before the net asset value has been calculated (a significant event), the portfolio securities so affected will generally be priced using fair value procedures.
An equity security of a publicly traded company acquired in a direct placement transaction may be subject to restrictions on resale that can affect the securitys liquidity and fair value. Such securities that are convertible into or otherwise will become freely tradable will be valued based on the market value of the freely tradable security less an applicable discount. Generally, the discount will initially be equal to the discount at which the Company purchased the securities. To the extent that such securities are convertible or otherwise become freely tradable within a time frame that may be reasonably determined, an amortization schedule may be used to determine the discount.
The Company determines fair value in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is applicable in conjunction with other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, but does not expand the use of fair value to any new circumstances. More specifically, SFAS 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and sets out a fair value hierarchy with the highest priority given to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. See Note 6 Fair Value of Financial Instruments for further disclosure.
On April 9, 2009, the FASB issued Staff Position No. 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly (FSP 157-4). FSP 157-4 provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with SFAS 157 when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. FSP 157-4 also provides guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. FSP 157-4 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009.
The Company generally values short-term debt securities at prices based on market quotations for such securities, except those securities purchased with 60 days or less to maturity are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates market value.
C. Security Transactions and Investment Income
Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses are reported on an identified cost basis. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis, including amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividends and distribution income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions received from the Companys investments in master limited partnerships (MLPs) generally are comprised of ordinary income, capital gains and return of capital from the MLPs. The Company allocates distributions between investment income and return of capital based on estimates made at the time such distributions are received. Such estimates are based on historical information available from each MLP and other industry sources. These estimates may subsequently be revised based on actual allocations received from MLPs after their tax reporting periods are concluded, as the actual character of these distributions is not known until after the fiscal year end of the Company.
D. Distributions to Stockholders
The Company intends to make monthly cash distributions of its investment company income to common stockholders. In addition, on an annual basis, the Company intends to distribute capital gains realized during the fiscal year in the last fiscal quarter. The amount of any distributions will be determined by the Board of Directors. Distributions to stockholders will be recorded on the ex-dividend date. The character of distributions made during the year may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes.
E. Federal Income Taxation
The Company intends to qualify as a regulated investment company (RIC) under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). As a result, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on income and gains that it distributes each taxable year to stockholders if it meets certain minimum distribution requirements. The Company is required to distribute substantially all of its income, in addition to other asset diversification requirements. The Company is subject to a 4 percent non-deductible U.S. federal excise tax on certain undistributed income unless the Company makes sufficient distributions to satisfy the excise tax avoidance requirement. The Company invests in MLPs, which generally are treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes. As a limited partner in the MLPs, the Company reports its allocable share of the MLPs taxable income in computing its own taxable income.
On July 31, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. The Company has
8 |
Tortoise Power and Energy Infrastructure Fund, Inc. |
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued) |
analyzed the tax positions it has taken and has concluded that no provision is required under FIN 48 for any open tax year. The Companys policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain positions, if any, as part of tax expense.
F. Organization Expenses, Offering and Debt Issuance Costs
The Company is responsible for paying all organizational expenses, which were expensed as incurred. Offering costs related to the issuance of common stock are charged to additional paid-in capital when the stock is issued. Organizational expenses in the amount of $35,000 were expensed prior to the commencement of operations. Offering costs (excluding underwriter commissions) of $274,000 related to the issuance of common stock in the initial public offering were recorded to additional paid-in capital during the period ended August 31, 2009.
G. Indemnifications
Under the Companys organizational documents, its officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Company. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Company may enter into contracts that provide general indemnification to other parties. The Companys maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not yet occurred, and may not occur. However, the Company has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.
H. Recent Accounting Pronouncement
In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162 (SFAS 168). SFAS 168 replaces SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM (Codification) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. On the effective date of SFAS 168, the Codification will supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative. SFAS 168 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption of SFAS 168 will not have a significant impact on the Companys financial statements.
3. Concentration of Risk
The Companys primary investment objective is to provide stockholders with a high level of current income, with a secondary objective of capital appreciation. Under normal circumstances, the Company intends to invest at least 80 percent of total assets (including assets obtained through potential leverage) in equity securities of companies that derive more than 50 percent of their revenue from power or energy operations. The Company will invest a minimum of 60 percent of our total assets in fixed income securities, which may include up to 25 percent of its assets in non-investment grade rated fixed income securities. In determining application of these policies, the term total assets includes assets obtained through leverage. Companies that primarily invest in a particular sector may experience greater volatility than companies investing in a broad range of industry sectors. The Company may, for defensive purposes, temporarily invest all or a significant portion of its assets in investment grade securities, short-term debt securities and cash or cash equivalents. To the extent the Company uses this strategy, it may not achieve its investment objective.
4. Agreements
The Company has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with Tortoise Capital Advisors, L.L.C. (the Adviser). Under the terms of the agreement, the Company pays the Adviser a fee equal to an annual rate of 0.95 percent of the Companys average monthly total assets (including any assets attributable to leverage) minus accrued liabilities (other than debt entered into for purposes of leverage and the aggregate liquidation preference of outstanding preferred stock) (Managed Assets), in exchange for the investment advisory services provided. The Adviser has agreed to a fee waiver of 0.15 percent of average monthly Managed Assets for the period from July 31, 2009 through July 31, 2010, a fee waiver of 0.10 percent of average monthly Managed Assets for the period from August 1, 2010 through July 31, 2011, and a fee waiver of 0.05 percent of average monthly Managed Assets for the period from August 1, 2011 through July 31, 2012.
The Company has engaged U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC to serve as the Companys administrator. The Company pays the administrator a monthly fee computed at an annual rate of 0.04 percent of the first $1,000,000,000 of the Companys Managed Assets, 0.03 percent on the next $1,000,000,000 of Managed Assets and 0.02 percent on the balance of the Companys Managed Assets.
Computershare Trust Company, N.A. serves as the Companys transfer agent, dividend paying agent, and agent for the automatic dividend reinvestment and cash purchase plan.
U.S. Bank, N.A. serves as the Companys custodian. The Company pays the custodian a monthly fee computed at an annual rate of 0.004 percent on the average daily market value of the Companys portfolio assets, subject to a minimum annual fee of $4,800, plus portfolio transaction fees.
5. Income Taxes
At August 31, 2009, the cost basis of investments for federal income tax purposes was $134,615,919. At August 31, 2009, gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments for federal income tax purposes were as follows:
Gross unrealized appreciation | $ | 296,561 | ||
Gross unrealized depreciation | (735,605 | ) | ||
Net unrealized depreciation | $ | (439,044 | ) |
6. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Companys investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1 | quoted prices in active markets for identical investments | ||
Level 2 | other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, market corroborated inputs, etc.) | ||
Level 3 | significant unobservable inputs (including the Companys own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
On April 9, 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments, which amends FASB Statement No. 107, Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments (FSP 107-1), to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim financial statements of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. FSP 107-1 also amends APB Opinion No. 28, Interim Financial Reporting, to require those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. FSP 107-1 is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009.

On September 15, 2009, the Company entered into a new Investment Advisory Agreement with the Adviser in connection with the September 15, 2009 closing of the transaction previously announced by the Adviser on June 3, 2009.

On September 15, 2009, effective upon consummation of the transaction resulting in the change of control of the Adviser, Terry Matlack resigned from the Board of Directors of the Company in order to comply with a safe harbor under Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act.

Effective August 31, 2009, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 165 (SFAS No. 165), Subsequent Events. SFAS No. 165 requires an entity to recognize in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet. SFAS No. 165 is intended to establish general standards of accounting and for disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date, but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The Company has performed an evaluation of subsequent events through October 20, 2009, which is the date the financial statements were issued.
