These statements are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, but not limited to, statements relating to the proposed transaction between MidAmerican and Constellation Energy and the expected timing and completion of the transaction.

These statements are based upon MidAmerican’s current intentions, assumptions, expectations and beliefs and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other important factors. Many of these factors are outside MidAmerican’s control and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by MidAmerican’s forward-looking statements. These factors include, among others:

• changes in MidAmerican’s and its subsidiaries’ credit ratings;

• unanticipated construction delays, changes in costs, receipt of required permits and authorizations, ability to fund capital projects and other factors that could affect future generation plants and infrastructure additions;
