5 December 31, 2023

Annual Information Form

Three-Year History

Over the past three years, Fortis has continued to experience significant growth. Total assets have increased from $55.5 billion at the start of 2021 to $65.9 billion as at December 31, 2023. Consolidated Capital Expenditures totalled $11.9 billion from 2021 through 2023, resulting in a three-year midyear rate base CAGR of 6.5%. The Corporation's shareholders' equity has also grown from $18.7 billion at the start of 2021 to $21.5 billion as at December 31, 2023. Common Equity Earnings for 2021 totalled $1,231 million compared to $1,506 million in 2023. The growth in earnings over the three-year period reflects the Corporation's organic growth strategy for its regulated utilities, and is also impacted by the higher average U.S.-to-Canadian dollar exchange rate in 2023 of 1.35 compared to 1.25 in 2021.

An overview of the Corporation's performance for the past three years follows:

2021

The Corporation's utilities reliably and safely delivered essential service in 2021. The COVID-19 pandemic did not have a significant impact on the Corporation's financial performance in 2021.

In July 2021, the Corporation's sustainability update was released and included information on the Corporation's progress on reducing carbon emissions and support of TCFD, among other things.

In September 2021, Fortis announced its 2022-2026 Capital Plan of $20 billion. The Capital Plan included $1 billion of additional capital investment at the Corporation's regulated utilities in comparison to the five-year Capital Plan released in 2020. The increase largely reflected customer growth, enhancements to transmission reliability and capacity, and Cleaner Energy Investments. This growth was tempered by $600 million associated with a lower assumed foreign exchange rate from that assumed in the Corporation's previous five-year Capital Plan.

2022

The Corporation's utilities continued to deliver reliable and safe service in 2022. In March 2022, the Corporation made progress on its commitment as a TCFD supporter with the release of its first TCFD and Climate Assessment Report, which included an analysis of four climate-related scenarios and associated risks and opportunities. The report provided information on the Corporation's strategy and actions to combat climate change, identified new opportunities associated with decarbonization, and provided a guide for investment in resilient and adaptable infrastructure. In July 2022, Fortis released its 2022 Sustainability Report, highlighting progress on a number of sustainability priorities, including the addition of more renewable energy, a further reduction in GHG emissions and advances in diversity.

In October 2022, Fortis announced its 2023-2027 Capital Plan of $22.3 billion. The Capital Plan included $2.3 billion of additional capital investment at the Corporation's regulated utilities in comparison to the previous five-year Capital Plan. The increase was driven by organic growth, largely reflecting regional transmission projects associated with the MISO LRTP at ITC, additional Cleaner Energy Investments in Arizona, and enhancements to distribution infrastructure reliability and capacity, as well as investments to support customer growth, across the Corporation's regulated utilities. Approximately $500 million of the increase was driven by a higher assumed U.S.-to-Canadian dollar exchange rate over the five-year period. The five-year Capital Plan reflected $5.9 billion in Cleaner Energy Investments primarily focused on connecting renewables to the grid, renewable and storage investments and cleaner fuel solutions.

2023

The Corporation continued to reliably and safely deliver electricity and gas service, outperforming industry averages in Canada and the U.S. for reliability and safety.

In September 2023, Fortis released its 2024-2028 Capital Plan of $25 billion, reflecting incremental capital investment of $2.7 billion over the prior year five-year plan. The increase is driven by organic growth, largely reflecting regional transmission projects at ITC associated with tranche one of the MISO LRTP (see "Competition" on page 8), as well as investments in Arizona to support TEP’s exit from coal. Investments supporting system adaptation and resiliency, customer growth and economic development are also driving capital growth across the Corporation's regulated utilities.

Cleaner Energy Investments of approximately $7 billion are expected over the five-year planning period, with capital expenditures focused on connecting renewables to the grid, renewable and storage investments in Arizona and the Caribbean, and cleaner natural gas solutions in British Columbia. Fortis remains focused on maintaining customer affordability by controlling costs, investing in cleaner energy resulting in fuel savings for customers, utilizing available tax credits, and implementing innovative practices, among other initiatives.

The five-year Capital Plan is expected to be funded primarily by cash from operations and regulated utility debt. Common equity proceeds are expected to be sourced from the Corporation's DRIP and ATM Program.

6 December 31, 2023

Annual Information Form

The Corporation reported Common Equity Earnings of $1.5 billion in 2023, or $3.10 per common share, compared to $1.3 billion, or $2.78 per common share in 2022. The increase was primarily driven by rate base growth across Fortis' utilities and the new cost of capital parameters approved for FortisBC effective January 1, 2023. Higher earnings in Arizona also contributed to earnings growth, reflecting higher retail electricity sales, new customer rates at TEP effective September 1, 2023, and lower depreciation expense associated with retirement of the San Juan generating station in 2022. An increase in the market value of certain investments that support retirement benefits, and the higher U.S.-to-Canadian dollar exchange rate, also favourably impacted earnings. The increase was partially offset by higher corporate finance costs and lower earnings from Aitken Creek. An increase in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, largely associated with the Corporation's DRIP, also impacted earnings per common share.

Capital Expenditures of $4.3 billion in 2023 were in-line with the 2023 Capital Plan, with over $700 million of capital investment related to delivering cleaner energy to customers. Capital Expenditures were $0.3 billion higher than 2022, primarily due to construction of the Roadrunner Reserve battery energy storage project in Arizona and investment in various smaller distribution projects across the Corporation's regulated utilities, as well as the impact of the higher average foreign exchange rate.

Outlook

Fortis is transitioning to a cleaner energy future and is on track to achieve its corporate-wide targets to reduce direct GHG emissions by 50% by 2030 and 75% by 2035 from a 2019 base year. The Corporation's 2050 net-zero direct GHG emissions target reinforces Fortis' commitment to further decarbonize over the long-term, while continuing our focus on reliability and affordability.

Fortis continues to enhance shareholder value through the execution of its Capital Plan, the balance and strength of its diversified portfolio of regulated utility businesses, and growth opportunities within and proximate to its service territories. The Corporation's $25 billion five-year Capital Plan is expected to increase midyear rate base from $37.0 billion in 2023 to $49.4 billion by 2028, translating into a five-year CAGR of 6.3%.

Beyond the five-year Capital Plan, additional opportunities to expand and extend growth include: further expansion of the electric transmission grid in the U.S. to facilitate the interconnection of cleaner energy, including infrastructure investments associated with the IRA and the MISO LRTP; climate adaptation and grid resiliency investments; renewable natural gas solutions and LNG infrastructure in British Columbia; and the acceleration of cleaner energy infrastructure investments across our jurisdictions.

Fortis expects its long-term growth in rate base will drive earnings that support dividend growth guidance of 4-6% annually through 2028, and is premised on the assumptions and material factors listed under "Forward-Looking Information".

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

Fortis is principally an energy delivery company, with 93% of its assets related to transmission and distribution. The business is characterized by low-risk, stable and predictable earnings and cash flows.

The Corporation's regulated utility businesses are: ITC (electric transmission - Michigan, Iowa, Minnesota, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma and Wisconsin); UNS Energy (integrated electric and natural gas distribution - Arizona); Central Hudson (electric transmission and distribution, and natural gas distribution - New York State); FortisBC Energy (natural gas transmission and distribution - British Columbia); FortisAlberta (electric distribution - Alberta); FortisBC Electric (integrated electric - British Columbia); Newfoundland Power (integrated electric - Newfoundland and Labrador); Maritime Electric (integrated electric - Prince Edward Island); FortisOntario (integrated electric - Ontario); Caribbean Utilities (integrated electric - Grand Cayman); and FortisTCI (integrated electric - Turks and Caicos Islands). Fortis also holds equity investments in the Wataynikaneyap Partnership (electric transmission - Ontario) and Belize Electricity (integrated electric - Belize).

The Corporation's non-regulated business is limited to Fortis Belize (three hydroelectric generation facilities - Belize). Aitken Creek was sold on November 1, 2023.

Fortis has a unique operating model with a small corporate office in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador and business units that operate on a substantially autonomous basis. Each utility has its own management team and board of directors, with most having a majority of independent board members, which provides effective oversight within the broad parameters of Fortis policies and best practices. Subsidiary autonomy supports constructive relationships with regulators, policy makers, customers and communities. Fortis believes this model enhances accountability, opportunity and performance across the Corporation's businesses, and positions Fortis well for future investment opportunities.

Fortis is focused on providing safe, reliable and cost-effective energy service to customers. Delivering a cleaner energy future is the Corporation's core purpose. In addition, management is focused on delivering long-term profitable growth for shareholders through the execution of its Capital Plan and the pursuit of investment opportunities within and proximate to its service territories.

Annual Information Form

Competition

Most of the Corporation's regulated utilities operate as the sole supplier of electricity and/or gas within their respective service territories. Competition in the regulated electric business is primarily from alternative energy sources and on-site generation by customers, particularly solar. The Corporation faces competition in its transmission business which may restrict its ability to grow this business outside of its established service territories. Challenges to existing ROFR statutes applicable to the transmission business may also restrict future growth. For more information related to an ongoing challenge with respect to a ROFR statute in Iowa, refer to the "Regulatory Highlights - Significant Regulatory Matters" section of the MD&A which is incorporated by reference in this AIF and available on SEDAR+ and EDGAR.

At the Corporation's regulated gas utilities, natural gas primarily competes with electricity for space and hot water heating load. In addition to other price comparisons, upfront capital cost differences between electric and natural gas equipment for hot water and space heating applications continue to present challenges for the competitiveness of natural gas on a fully costed basis. As governments develop policies to address climate change, any resultant changes to energy policy may impact the competitiveness of natural gas relative to other energy sources. Specifically, government policy could impact the competitiveness of natural gas in British Columbia, which accounts for 80% of the Corporation's natural gas revenue.

Seasonality

As the Corporation's subsidiaries operate in various jurisdictions throughout North America, seasonality impacts each utility differently. Most of the annual earnings of the Corporation's gas utilities are realized in the first and fourth quarters due to space-heating requirements. Earnings for the electric distribution utilities in the U.S. are generally highest in the second and third quarters due to the use of air conditioning and other cooling equipment.

Market and Sales

Revenues

Revenue was $2,085 million in 2023 compared to $1,906 million in 2022.

ITC derives nearly all of its revenues from transmission, scheduling, control and dispatch services and other related services over ITC's Regulated Operating Subsidiaries' transmission systems to DTE, CMS, IPL and other entities, such as alternative energy suppliers, power marketers and other wholesale customers that provide electricity to end-use customers, as well as from transaction-based capacity reservations on ITC's transmission systems. MISO and SPP are responsible for billing and collecting the majority of transmission service revenues. As the billing agents for ITC's MISO Regulated Operating Subsidiaries and ITC Great Plains, MISO and SPP collect fees for the use of ITC's transmission systems, invoicing DTE, CMS, IPL and other customers on a monthly basis.

The following table compares the composition of ITC's 2023 and 2022 revenue by customer class.

	Revenue (%)
	2023	2022
Network revenues	70.7	69.7
Regional cost-sharing revenues	24.8	25.6
Point-to-point	1.2	1.4
Scheduling, control and dispatch	1.3	1.3
Other	2.0	2.0
Total	100.0	100.0

Network revenues are generated from network customers for their use of ITC's electric transmission systems and are based on the actual revenue requirements under its cost-based formula rates that contain a true-up mechanism.

Network revenues from ITC Great Plains include the annual revenue requirements specific to projects that are charged exclusively within one pricing zone within SPP or are classified as direct assigned network upgrades under the SPP tariff and contain a true-up mechanism.

Regional cost-sharing revenues are generated from transmission customers for their use of ITC's MISO Regulated Operating Subsidiaries' network upgrade projects that are eligible for regional cost-sharing under provisions of the MISO tariff. Additionally, certain projects at ITC Great Plains are eligible for recovery through a region-wide charge under provisions of the SPP tariff. Regional cost-sharing revenues are treated as a reduction to the net network revenue requirement under ITC's cost-based formula rates.

Point-to-point revenues consist of revenues generated from a type of transmission service for which the customer pays for transmission capacity reserved along a specified path between two points on an hourly, daily, weekly or monthly basis. Point-to-point revenues also include other components pursuant to schedules under the MISO and SPP transmission tariffs. Point-to-point revenues are treated as a revenue credit to network or regional customers and are a reduction to the gross revenue requirement when calculating the net revenue requirement under ITC's cost-based formula rates.

Scheduling, control and dispatch revenues are allocated to ITC's MISO Regulated Operating Subsidiaries by MISO as compensation for the services performed in operating the transmission system. Such services include monitoring of reliability data, current and next-day analysis, implementation of emergency procedures and outage coordination and switching.

Other revenuesconsist of rental revenues, easement revenues, revenues relating to use of jointly-owned assets under ITC's transmission ownership and operating agreements and revenues from providing ancillary services to customers. The majority of other revenues are treated as a revenue credit and taken as a reduction to the gross revenue requirement when calculating the net revenue requirement under ITC's cost-based formula rates.

The CPA enables BC Hydro and the entitlement parties to generate more power from their respective generating plants than they could if they operated independently through coordinated use of water flows, subject to the 1961 Columbia River Treaty between Canada and the U.S., and coordinated operation of storage reservoirs and generating plants. Under the CPA, BC Hydro takes into its system all power actually generated by the plants listed in the table above. In exchange for permitting BC Hydro to determine the output of these facilities, each of the entitlement parties is contractually entitled to a fixed annual entitlement of capacity and energy from BC Hydro, which is based on 50-year historical water flows and the plants' generating capabilities. The entitlement parties receive their defined entitlements irrespective of actual water flows to the entitlement parties' generating plants. BC Hydro enjoys the benefits of the additional power generated through coordinated operation and optimal use of water flows. The entitlement parties benefit by knowing years in advance the amount of power that they will receive from their generating plants and, therefore, do not face hydrology variability in generation supply planning. However, FortisBC Electric retains rights to its original water licences and flows in perpetuity. Should the CPA be terminated, the output of FortisBC Electric's Kootenay River system plants would, with the water and storage authorized under its existing licences and on a long‑term average, be approximately the same power output as FortisBC Electric receives under the CPA. The CPA does not affect FortisBC Electric's ownership of its physical generation assets. The CPA continues in force until terminated by any of the parties by giving no less than five years' notice at any time on or after December 31, 2030.

FortisBC Electric's remaining electricity supply is acquired primarily through long-term PPAs with a number of counterparties, including the Brilliant PPA, the BC Hydro PPA and the Waneta Expansion Capacity Agreement. Additionally, FortisBC Electric purchases capacity and energy from the market to meet its peak energy requirements and optimize its overall power supply portfolio. These market purchases provided approximately 9% of FortisBC Electric's energy supply requirements in 2023. FortisBC Electric's PPAs and market purchases have been accepted by the BCUC and prudently incurred costs thereunder flow through to customers through FortisBC Electric's electricity rates.

Power Supply

Newfoundland Power

Approximately 93% of Newfoundland Power's energy requirements are purchased from NL Hydro with the remaining 7% generated by Newfoundland Power. The principal terms of the supply arrangements with NL Hydro are regulated by the PUB on a basis similar to that upon which Newfoundland Power's service to its customers is regulated.

NL Hydro charges Newfoundland Power for purchased power and includes charges for both demand and energy purchased. The demand charge is based on applying a rate to the peak‑billing demand for the most recent winter season. The energy charge is a two-block charge with a higher second‑block charge set to reflect NL Hydro's marginal cost of generating electricity.

Energy from the Muskrat Falls project supplies a significant portion of NL Hydro's electricity requirements, and in turn, Newfoundland Power's electricity requirements. All units of NL Hydro's Muskrat Falls generating facility have been released for service. The Labrador Island Link transmission line from Muskrat Falls in Labrador to Soldiers Pond on Newfoundland's southeast coast was officially commissioned on April 14, 2023.

While it has been commissioned and released for service, the reliability of supply from the Muskrat Falls project remains uncertain and is under review by the PUB as part of its ongoing Reliability and Resource Adequacy Study. In October 2022, NL Hydro filed an updated study with the PUB recommending, among other things, that its 490-megawatt Holyrood Thermal Generating Station remain operational until 2030 as backup generation in the event of an extended outage to the Labrador Island Link. The PUB’s review is expected to continue throughout 2024.

Future increases in supply costs from NL Hydro, including costs associated with the Muskrat Falls project, are expected to increase electricity rates that Newfoundland Power charges to its customers. The final impact of the Muskrat Falls project on customer rates and the associated timing will remain unknown until the finalization of the provincial government’s rate mitigation plans and NL Hydro’s next general rate application. Any additional costs associated with extending the life of existing generating capacity or additional backup generating capacity on the island of Newfoundland could further increase supply costs and, in turn, further increase electricity rates for Newfoundland Power's customers.

Maritime Electric

Maritime Electric is interconnected to the Province of New Brunswick via four provincially owned submarine cables with a total capacity of 560 MW. The company purchases its energy requirements through energy purchase agreements with NB Power, a New Brunswick Crown corporation, and from renewable energy facilities owned by the PEI Energy Corporation. Company-owned on-Island generation facilities totalling 90 MW are used primarily for peaking, submarine-cable loading issues and emergency purposes.

Maritime Electric has the following contracts with NB Power: (i) an energy supply agreement covering the period March 1, 2019 to December 31, 2026; (ii) a transmission capacity contract allowing Maritime Electric to reserve 30 MW of capacity to PEI expiring November 2032; and (iii) an entitlement agreement for approximately 4.55% of the output from NB Power's Point Lepreau Nuclear Generating Station for the life of the unit. Maritime Electric also has several renewable energy contracts with the PEI Energy Corporation for the purchase of energy for remaining periods ranging from one to 15 years.

As part of its entitlement agreement relating to the output of the Point Lepreau Nuclear Generating Station, Maritime Electric is required to pay its share of the unit's capital and operating costs.

FortisOntario

The power requirements of FortisOntario's service territories are met through various sources. Canadian Niagara Power purchases all its power requirements for Fort Erie and Port Colborne from the IESO, purchases approximately 83% of energy requirements for the Gananoque region from Hydro One Networks Inc., and purchases the remaining 17% from five hydroelectric generating plants owned by EO Generation LP. Algoma Power purchases its energy requirements primarily from the IESO. Under the Ontario Energy Board's Standard Supply Code, Canadian Niagara Power and Algoma Power must provide standard service supply to all its customers who do not choose to contract with an electricity retailer. This energy is provided to customers at either regulated or market prices.

Cornwall Electric purchases substantially all of its power requirements from Hydro-Québec Energy Marketing under a contract that expires in December 2030, and which provides a minimum of 537 GWh of energy per year and up to 145 MW of capacity at any one time.

At least annually, the Governance and Sustainability Committee reviews, both with the Board and management, the Corporation's IT and OT risk exposures, including cybersecurity, system integrity, data and privacy risks, and the steps the Corporation has taken to monitor or mitigate such exposures around critical Corporation assets, including the Corporation's procedures and any related policies, such as cyber incident response plans, data and privacy risk assessments, security measures, system controls and testing, and cyber insurance coverage.

The Cybersecurity Executive Committee of the Corporation is chaired by the Vice President, CIO and its members include: the Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, the Executive Vice President, Sustainability and Chief Legal Officer, the Executive Vice President, Operations and Innovation and the Senior Vice President, Capital Markets and Business Development. The Cybersecurity Executive Committee meets at least annually to review various cybersecurity matters which may include objectives, policies, risk assessments, metrics, and audits. The Vice President, CIO further ensures the Cybersecurity Executive Committee is updated regarding material changes to the CRMP throughout the year.

The Cybersecurity Policy requires that operating subsidiaries have a cybersecurity steering committee that meets a minimum of twice annually to review cybersecurity projects, objectives, policies, metrics, audits, and other matters that arise pertaining to cybersecurity risk management. Further, the Fortis CRMP requires each operating subsidiary to identify an individual responsible for cybersecurity risk management for that company. The Cybersecurity Policy requires the Corporation and each operating utility's cybersecurity risk management lead to provide updates on key risk items, the company's cybersecurity programs and disclosure of significant incidents or breaches at each regularly scheduled meeting of the committee or board with the applicable oversight.

Risk Management and Strategy

Under the CRMP, there is a Cybersecurity Risk Framework which establishes enterprise-wide cybersecurity risk management practices for the Corporation and its operating utilities that identifies and monitors cybersecurity risks, and provides insights for remediation of any risks that could lead to cybersecurity incidents throughout the company. The framework includes a process by which key cyber threats and vulnerabilities are identified and sorted by threat actors, motives, and potential attack path. Once threats or vulnerabilities are identified, the CRMP assesses and prioritizes them based on the likelihood and potential impact. Under this framework, operating utilities assess cybersecurity threats and set risk targets that are appropriate for their business.

The CRMP is incorporated into, and closely linked with, the overall Fortis Enterprise Risk Management Program. When the CRMP highlights a risk, the teams develop and implement a mitigation roadmap. Monitoring of the mitigation roadmap occurs to ensure the risk is mitigated at an acceptable level. Further, under the Cybersecurity Policy, operating utilities are required to have a cybersecurity incident response plan, which must include processes and escalation levels for classifying the severity and actual or potential impact of cybersecurity incidents.

FOCUS ON SUSTAINABILITY

For further information with respect to the Corporation's sustainability program and practices, refer to the "Focus on Sustainability" section of the MD&A, which is incorporated by reference in this AIF and available on SEDAR+ and EDGAR.

Environmental Regulation and Contingencies

As part of the regulatory process, operating subsidiaries engage with stakeholders, including community groups, regulators and customers, to consult on the potential environmental impact of their operations. Fortis and its subsidiaries are subject to various federal, provincial, state and municipal laws, regulations and guidelines relating to the protection of the environment. Environmental compliance involves significant operating and capital costs. At the Corporation's regulated utilities, prudently incurred costs associated with environmental protection and compliance are generally eligible for recovery in customer rates.

The following environmental contingencies have been made as of December 31, 2023:

Mine Reclamation at Generation Facilities Not Operated by TEP. TEP pays ongoing reclamation costs related to coal mines that supply generation facilities in which TEP has an ownership interest but does not operate. TEP is permitted to fully recover these costs from customers and, accordingly, these costs are deferred as a regulatory asset for future recovery.

TEP is liable for a portion of final mine reclamation costs upon closure of the mines servicing the San Juan and Four Corners power stations. TEP's estimated share of final mine reclamation costs at Four Corners is $8 million upon expiration of the related coal supply agreement, which expires in 2031. At December 31, 2023, TEP's estimated share of final mine reclamation costs at the San Juan generating station, which was retired in June 2022, was $33 million.

Former Manufactured Gas Plant Facilities. Environmental regulations require Central Hudson to investigate sites at which Central Hudson or its predecessors once owned and/or operated manufactured gas plants and, if necessary, remediate these sites. Central Hudson accrues for remediation costs based on the amounts that can be reasonably estimated. As at December 31, 2023, an obligation of $96 million was recognized. Central Hudson has notified its insurers and intends to seek reimbursement where insurance coverage exists. Further, as authorized by the New York Public Service Commission, Central Hudson is currently permitted to defer, for future recovery from customers, differences between actual costs for manufactured gas plant site investigation and remediation and the associated rate allowances.

The credit facilities contain a covenant that provides that Fortis shall not: (i) declare, pay or make any ordinary course dividend except that in giving effect to the payment of such ordinary course dividend, it would not result in the Corporation's consolidated debt to consolidated capitalization ratio exceeding 70%; or (ii) declare, pay or make any restricted payments (including special or extraordinary dividends) if, immediately thereafter, its consolidated debt to consolidated capitalization ratio would exceed 65%.

As at December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Corporation was in compliance with its debt covenant restrictions pertaining to dividend distributions, as described above.

Credit Ratings

Credit ratings provide an opinion about the creditworthiness of an issuer and the issuer's capacity and willingness to meet its financial commitments on the obligation in accordance with its terms. Credit ratings are intended to provide investors with an independent measure of credit quality of an issue of securities and are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold securities. The ratings assigned to securities issued by Fortis and its utilities are reviewed by the agencies on an ongoing basis. Ratings may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating organization. The following table summarizes the Corporation's debt credit ratings as at February 8, 2024.

(1)Central Hudson's senior unsecured debt is also rated by Fitch at 'A-'. Fitch rates long-term debt on a rating scale that ranges from AAA to C, which represents the range from highest to lowest quality of such securities. Fitch uses '+' or '-' designations to indicate the relative status of securities within a particular rating category. According to Fitch, a long-term obligation rated A denotes the expectation of low credit risk, with strong capacity for payment of financial commitments. The capacity may, nevertheless, be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic conditions than is the case for higher ratings.

In November 2023, S&P confirmed the Corporation's 'A-' issuer and 'BBB+' senior unsecured debt credit ratings and revised the issuer rating outlook for the Corporation and certain of its subsidiaries from stable to negative. S&P noted that the change reflects rising exposure to physical risks due to climate change. S&P also revised the funds from operations (FFO) to debt downgrade threshold for the Corporation from 10.5% to 12.0%.

The table below highlights rating category ranges from highest to lowest quality of such securities for the issuer's credit rating agencies.

Security	DBRS Morningstar	S&P	Moody's
Long-term debt	AAA to D (1)	AAA to D (2)	Aaa to C (5)
Short-term debt	R-1 to D (1)	A-1 to D (3)	Prime-1 to Not Prime (6)
Preference Shares	Pfd-1 to D	P-1 to D (4)	N/A

(1)All rating categories contain subcategories of '(high)' or '(low)' other than AAA and D for long-term debt and below R-2 for short-term debt. The absence of either a '(high)' or '(low)' designation indicates the rating is in the middle of a category.

(2)S&P uses '+' or '-' designations to indicate the relative standing of securities within a particular rating category. Such modifiers are not added to ratings below CCC or ratings at AAA.

(3)Within only the A-1 category may certain obligations be designated with a '+', indicating that the issuer's capacity to meet its financial commitments under these obligations is extremely strong.

(4)S&P uses 'high' or 'low' designations to indicate the relative standing of securities within a particular rating category. Such modifiers are not added to ratings below P-5.

(5)Moody's applies numerical modifiers 1, 2 and 3 to each generic rating classification from Aa to Caa to indicate relative standing within such classification. The modifier 1 indicates that the security ranks at the higher end of its generic rating category, the modifier 2 indicates a mid-range ranking and the modifier 3 indicates a ranking at the lower end of that generic rating category.

(6)Short-term obligations with a Not Prime rating do not fall within any of the Prime rating categories.

DBRS

Long-term debt

According to DBRS Morningstar, a rating of A is assigned to a long-term debt instrument that has good credit quality, with the issuer having substantial capacity to pay its financial obligations, but credit quality is less than AA-rated instruments and may be vulnerable to future events, but qualifying negative factors are considered manageable.

Short-term debt

According to DBRS Morningstar, a rating of R-1 (low) means that the short-term debt obligation has good credit quality, with the issuer having substantial capacity to repay short-term debt obligations and may be vulnerable to future events, but qualifying negative factors are considered manageable. The overall strength of R-1 (low) rated instruments is not as favourable as those in higher rated categories.

Preference shares

According to DBRS Morningstar, a rating of Pfd-2 (low) means that the preference shares have good credit quality and although the protection of dividends and principal is substantial, earnings, the balance sheet and coverage ratios of Pfd-2 rated companies are not as strong as Pfd-1 rated companies.

S&P

Long-term debt

According to S&P, a rating of A is assigned to long-term debt instruments that are somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than those in higher-rated categories. However, the issuer's capacity to meet its financial obligations is still strong. Debt instruments rated BBB exhibit adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity of the issuer to meet its financial commitments on the obligation.

Short-term debt

According to S&P, a short-term obligation rated A-2 is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations in higher rating categories. However, the issuer's capacity to meet its financial commitments on the short-term obligation is satisfactory.

Preference shares

According to S&P, a rating of P-2 means that the preference shares have adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity of the issuer to meet its financial commitments on the obligation.

Moody's

Long-term debt

According to Moody's, a rating of Baa is assigned to long-term debt instruments considered to be of medium-grade quality. Debt instruments rated Baa are subject to moderate credit risk and may possess certain speculative characteristics. Debt instruments rated A are considered upper-medium grade and are subject to low credit risk.

Short-term debt

According to Moody's, a rating of Prime-2 means that an issuer has a strong ability to repay short-term debt obligations.

The Corporation and/or each of its currently rated utilities pay DBRS Morningstar, S&P, Moody's and/or Fitch an annual monitoring fee and a one-time fee in connection with each rated issuance.
