Weighted-Average Shares - Diluted EPS
(1) Original Forecast of average common shares outstanding included the issuance of common stock to satisfy the 2012 forward equity sale, the DRIP and the settlement of the
 PPL Capital Funding equity units in 2013 and 2014.
(2) Revised Forecast reflects PPL’s projected average shares outstanding after adjusting for the removal of equity issuances under the DRIP, the dilutive impact of the 2012
 forward equity sale, and the full expected impact of common shares under the 2010 and 2011 Equity Units including the accelerated recognition of equity unit shares
 in the calculation of earnings per share effective January 1, 2013. The terms of the equity units have not changed, and the actual issuance of common stock under the
  terms of the equity units is still scheduled to occur July 1, 2013 and May 1, 2014 for the 2010 and 2011 Equity Units, respectively.

Statements contained in this presentation, including statements with respect to future earnings, cash flows, financing, regulation and
corporate strategy are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Although PPL Corporation
believes that the expectations and assumptions reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, these statements are
subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the statements.
The following are among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements:
market demand and prices for energy, capacity and fuel; weather conditions affecting customer energy usage and operating costs;
competition in power markets; the effect of any business or industry restructuring; the profitability and liquidity of PPL Corporation, its
subsidiaries and customers; new accounting requirements or new interpretations or applications of existing requirements; operating
performance of plants and other facilities; the length of scheduled and unscheduled outages at our generating plants; environmental
conditions and requirements and the related costs of compliance, including environmental capital expenditures and emission allowance
and other expenses; system conditions and operating costs; development of new projects, markets and technologies; performance of
new ventures; asset or business acquisitions and dispositions, and PPL Corporation’s ability to realize the expected benefits from
acquired businesses, including the 2010 acquisition of Louisville Gas and Electric Company and Kentucky Utilities Company and the
2011 acquisition of the Central Networks electricity distribution businesses in the U.K.; any impact of hurricanes or other severe
weather on our business, including any impact on fuel prices; receipt of necessary government permits, approvals, rate relief and
regulatory cost recovery; capital market conditions and decisions regarding capital structure; the impact of state, federal or foreign
investigations applicable to PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries; the outcome of litigation against PPL Corporation and its
subsidiaries; stock price performance; the market prices of equity securities and the impact on pension income and resultant cash
funding requirements for defined benefit pension plans; the securities and credit ratings of PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries;
political, regulatory or economic conditions in states, regions or countries where PPL Corporation or its subsidiaries conduct business,
including any potential effects of threatened or actual terrorism or war or other hostilities; foreign exchange rates; new state, federal or
foreign legislation, including new tax legislation; and the commitments and liabilities of PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries. Any such
forward-looking statements should be considered in light of such important factors and in conjunction with PPL Corporation's Form 10-
K and other reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
"Earnings from ongoing operations," also referred to as "ongoing earnings," should not be considered as an alternative to reported earnings, or
net income attributable to PPL shareowners, which is an indicator of operating performance determined in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP). PPL believes that "earnings from ongoing operations," although a non-GAAP financial measure, is also
useful and meaningful to investors because it provides management's view of PPL's fundamental earnings performance as another criterion in
making investment decisions. PPL's management also uses "earnings from ongoing operations" in measuring certain corporate performance
goals. Other companies may use different measures to present financial performance.
"Earnings from ongoing operations" is adjusted for the impact of special items. Special items include:
 Adjusted energy-related economic activity (as discussed below).
 Foreign currency-related economic hedges.
 Gains and losses on sales of assets not in the ordinary course of business.
 Impairment charges (including impairments of securities in the company's nuclear decommissioning trust funds).
 Workforce reduction and other restructuring effects.
 Acquisition-related adjustments.
 Other charges or credits that are, in management's view, not reflective of the company's ongoing operations.
Adjusted energy-related economic activity includes the changes in fair value of positions used to economically hedge a portion of the economic
value of PPL's competitive generation assets, full-requirement sales contracts and retail activities. This economic value is subject to changes in
fair value due to market price volatility of the input and output commodities (e.g., fuel and power) prior to the delivery period that was hedged.
Also included in adjusted energy-related economic activity is the premium amortization associated with options and the ineffective portion of
qualifying cash flow hedges and economic activity realized associated with the monetization of certain full-requirement sales contracts in 2010.
This economic activity is deferred, with the exception of the full-requirement sales contracts that were monetized, and included in earnings from
ongoing operations over the delivery period of the item that was hedged or upon realization. Management believes that adjusting for such
amounts provides a better matching of earnings from ongoing operations to the actual amounts settled for PPL's underlying hedged assets.
Please refer to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and MD&A in PPL Corporation's periodic filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission for additional information on adjusted energy-related economic activity.
Free cash flow before dividends is derived by deducting capital expenditures and other investing activities-net, from cash flow from operations.
Free cash flow before dividends should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operations, which is determined in accordance with
GAAP. PPL believes that free cash flow before dividends, although a non-GAAP measure, is an important measure to both management and
investors, as it is an indicator of the company's ability to sustain operations and growth without additional outside financing beyond the
requirement to fund maturing debt obligations. Other companies may calculate free cash flow before dividends in a different manner.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
"Kentucky Gross Margins" is a single financial performance measure of the Kentucky Regulated segment's electricity generation, transmission
and distribution operations as well as its distribution and sale of natural gas. In calculating this measure, fuel and energy purchases are
deducted from revenues. In addition, utility revenues and expenses associated with approved cost recovery mechanisms are offset. These
mechanisms allow for recovery of certain expenses, returns on capital investments and performance incentives. Certain costs associated with
these mechanisms, primarily ECR, DSM and GLT, are recorded as "Other operation and maintenance" and "Depreciation." As a result, this
measure represents the net revenues from the Kentucky Regulated segment's operations.
"Pennsylvania Gross Delivery Margins" is a single financial performance measure of the Pennsylvania Regulated segment's electric delivery
operations, which includes transmission and distribution activities. In calculating this measure, utility revenues and expenses associated with
approved recovery mechanisms, including energy provided as a PLR, are offset with minimal impact on earnings. Costs associated with these
mechanisms are recorded in "Energy purchases," "Other operation and maintenance," which is primarily Act 129 costs, and "Taxes, other than
income," which is primarily gross receipts tax. This performance measure includes PLR energy purchases by PPL Electric from PPL
EnergyPlus, which are reflected in "PLR intersegment utility revenue (expense)." As a result, this measure represents the net revenues from the
Pennsylvania Regulated segment's electric delivery operations.
"Unregulated Gross Energy Margins" is a single financial performance measure of the Supply segment's competitive energy non-trading and
trading activities. In calculating this measure, the Supply segment's energy revenues are offset by the cost of fuel, energy purchases, certain
other operation and maintenance expenses, primarily ancillary charges, and gross receipts tax, which is recorded in "Taxes, other than income."
This performance measure is relevant to PPL due to the volatility in the individual revenue and expense lines on the Statements of Income that
comprise "Unregulated Gross Energy Margins." This volatility stems from a number of factors, including the required netting of certain
transactions with ISOs and significant fluctuations in unrealized gains and losses. Such factors could result in gains or losses being recorded in
either "Wholesale energy marketing" or "Energy purchases" on the Statements of Income. This performance measure includes PLR revenues
from energy sales to PPL Electric by PPL EnergyPlus, which are recorded in "PLR intersegment utility revenue (expense)." PPL excludes from
"Unregulated Gross Energy Margins" the Supply segment's adjusted energy-related economic activity, which includes the changes in fair value
of positions used to economically hedge a portion of the economic value of PPL's competitive generation assets, full-requirement sales contracts
and retail activities. This economic value is subject to changes in fair value due to market price volatility of the input and output commodities
(e.g., fuel and power) prior to the delivery period that was hedged. Also included in adjusted energy-related economic activity is the premium
amortization associated with options, the ineffective portion of qualifying cash flow hedges and economic activity realized associated with the
monetization of certain full-requirement sales contracts in 2010. This economic activity is deferred, with the exception of the full-requirement
sales contracts that were monetized, and included in "Unregulated Gross Energy Margins" over the delivery period that was hedged or upon
realization.
