**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

AEP reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP by using earnings (loss) attributable to AEP common shareholders as stated above. AEP supplements the reporting of financial information determined in accordance with GAAP with certain non-GAAP financial measures including operating earnings. Operating earnings, which could differ from GAAP earnings, exclude certain gains and losses and other specified items, including mark-to-market adjustments from commodity hedging activities and other items as set forth in the reconciliation below. Management believes these are not indicative of AEP's ongoing performance.

This information is intended to enhance an investor's overall understanding of period over period financial results and provide an indication of AEP's baseline operating performance by excluding items that are considered by management to be not directly related to the ongoing operations of the business. In addition, this information is among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for evaluating performance, allocating resources, setting incentive compensation targets and planning and forecasting of future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures are not a presentation defined under GAAP and may not be comparable to other companies' presentations.

**Reconciliation of Reported GAAP Earnings to Operating Earnings**

The following tables present a reconciliation of operating earnings to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

**RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AND TRANSACTIONS**

***NOLCs in Transmission Formula Rates - June 2025 FERC Orders***

In June 2025, the FERC issued two orders, partially reversing its January 2024 decisions on the basis of IRS PLRs accepted into the record, and concluding that the accelerated depreciation-related NOLC adjustments should be included in rate base and should also be included in the computation of Excess ADIT regulatory liabilities to be refunded to customers. As a result of the June 2025 FERC orders, the Registrants recognized revenues, with interest, attributable to accelerated depreciation-related NOLCs included in transmission formula rates for years 2021 through 2025 and reduced Excess ADIT regulatory liabilities. The impact of the orders resulted in a $499 million increase in Earnings Attributable to AEP Common Shareholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. See the table below and the "FERC 2021 PJM and SPP Transmission Formula Rate Challenge" section of Note 4 for additional information.

***NOLCs in Retail Jurisdictions - IRS PLRs***

AEP's utility subsidiaries have made rate filings with state commissions to transition to stand-alone treatment of NOLCs in retail ratemaking. In April 2024, supportive PLRs for certain retail jurisdictions were received from the IRS, effective March 2024. The PLRs concluded NOLCs on a stand-alone ratemaking basis should be included in rate base and should also be included in the computation of Excess ADIT regulatory liabilities to be refunded to customers. Based on this conclusion, I&M, PSO and SWEPCo recognized regulatory assets related to revenue requirement amounts to be collected from customers, reduced Excess ADIT regulatory liabilities and recorded favorable impacts to net income in the first quarter of 2024 as shown in the table below:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Company** | **Increase in Pretax Income from the Recognition of Regulatory Assets** | **Reduction in Income Tax Expense (a)** | **Increase in Net Income** |
| | **(in millions)** | **(in millions)** | **(in millions)** |

| **AEP Total** | $67.7 | $195.3 | $263.0 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Primarily relates to a $224 million remeasurement of Excess ADIT regulatory liabilities, partially offset by $29 million of tax expense on favorable pretax income from the recognition of regulatory assets.

Beginning in the second quarter of 2024 and continuing until the NOLC revenue requirement is in rates, AEP is recognizing additional regulatory assets related to revenue requirement amounts to be collected from customers. As of June 30, 2025, AEP has NOLC regulatory assets of $114 million on its balance sheet.

***Noncontrolling Interest in OHTCo and IMTCo (Applies to AEP and AEPTCo)***

In January 2025, AEP announced a partnership whereby nonaffiliated entities will acquire a 19.9% noncontrolling interest in OHTCo and IMTCo for $2.82 billion. The transaction closed in June 2025 and AEP received cash proceeds of approximately $2.78 billion, net of transaction costs. Net proceeds will be used to help finance AEP's $54 billion capital plan for 2025-2029, announced in November 2024, driven by transmission and distribution infrastructure upgrades and new generation to support anticipated load growth. See "Noncontrolling Interest in OHTCo and IMTCo" section of Note 6 for additional information.

***PSO New Generation Resources***

In the second quarter of 2025, PSO expanded its generation portfolio by acquiring three power generation facilities, as listed below, for a total of $1.4 billion. See "Acquisitions" section of Note 6 for additional information.

***Kentucky Securitization***

In June 2025, KPCo issued $478 million of securitization bonds to recover $500 million of regulatory assets, including $311 million of plant retirement costs, $79 million of deferred storm costs related to 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 major storms, $56 million of under-recovered purchased power rider costs, $51 million of deferred purchased power expenses and $3 million of issuance-related expenses, including KPSC advisor expenses. The net bond proceeds of $478 million also included $6 million for non-utility issuance costs and a $29 million offset for net present value of return on accumulated deferred income taxes related to KPCo's Decommissioning Rider as ordered by the KPSC.

------

***New Legislation***

*Ohio Legislation*

Ohio House Bill 15 (HB 15) was approved by the Ohio legislature in April 2025 and signed into law by the Governor of Ohio in May 2025. HB 15 is effective beginning August 14, 2025 and (a) alters rate-setting mechanisms by replacing ESPs with triennial base rate cases based on a three-year forecasted test period, effective with the end of OPCo's previously approved ESP which ends in May 2028, (b) eliminates OPCo's ability to recover from, or refund to, customers the difference between purchased power expenses from OVEC and the market revenues OPCo receives from that purchased power as of the effective date of the law and (c) repeals the statute that permits electric distribution utilities, including OPCo, to execute contracts to provide customer-sited renewable generation service such as fuel cell technology or other renewable resources prospectively.

As a result of this legislation, in the first quarter of 2025, OPCo recorded a $35 million estimated reduction to its OVEC-related purchased power regulatory asset for deferred net costs that are no longer probable of future recovery. Management is unable to predict the future impact to net income, cash flows and financial condition arising from the future changes in OPCo's rate setting mechanisms and the elimination of OPCo's ability to recover from, or refund to, customers the difference between purchased power expenses from OVEC and the market revenues OPCo receives from that purchased power.

*Texas Legislation*

On June 20, 2025, Texas House Bill 5247 (HB 5247) was signed into law by the Governor of Texas and became effective. The bill establishes a tracking mechanism for qualifying electric utilities to file annual interim rate adjustments for cost recovery of certain transmission and distribution capital expenditures. On June 27, 2025, AEP Texas filed with the PUCT notice of qualification and election to use the tracking mechanism permitted by HB 5247. Qualifying electric utilities under HB 5247 consist of utilities that: (a) operate solely in ERCOT, (b) have been identified by the PUCT as having responsibility for constructing transmission infrastructure as part of ERCOT's Permian Basin Reliability Plan and (c) make annual capital expenditures in transmission and distribution that exceed 300% of annual depreciation. Based on those requirements, AEP Texas is a qualifying electric utility and SWEPCo and ETT are not qualifying electric utilities.

The tracking mechanism permits a qualifying electric utility to defer all or a portion of costs associated with its eligible transmission and distribution capital investments, including depreciation expense and carrying costs, as a regulatory asset. The tracking mechanism is available through 2035 and is an alternative to the existing capital tracking mechanisms in Texas. Deferred costs will be recovered through interim rate updates over a period not to exceed 18 months and earn a return until recovered. As a result of the new legislation, AEP Texas deferred approximately $25 million of eligible costs through June 2025 as a regulatory asset. Investments included in the tracking mechanism and the existing capital tracker filings remain subject to prudency review in the utility's next base rate review before the PUCT. If any of these deferred costs are not approved for recovery, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

*Oklahoma Legislation* 

Effective August 28, 2025, in accordance with Oklahoma Senate Bill 998 (SB 998), a public utility that elects to defer costs may defer up to 90% of all depreciation expenses and returns associated with qualifying electric plants to a regulatory asset, provided the utility has notified the OCC of its election to do so. SB 998 excludes deferral of depreciation expense related to transmission plant and/or new electric generating units. Deferred costs will be recovered through base rates over a 20-year period and earn a return until recovered. SB 998 also allows for expedited recovery of new gas plant investments. Although SB 998 is expected to be favorable, management does not expect it to have a material impact on 2025 net income, cash flows and financial condition.

*Federal Tax Legislation*

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed H.R. 1 into law, commonly known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA). Most notably for AEP, this budget reconciliation legislation modifies and accelerates the phase out of wind and solar PTCs and ITCs, adds new restrictions to guard against certain foreign ownership or influence with respect to otherwise credit-eligible projects and makes 100% bonus depreciation permanent for our non-regulated entities. With the exception of bonus depreciation, this legislation is prospective and has no material impact on the current period financial statements. Following enactment of the legislation, on July 7, 2025, the President issued an Executive Order directing the Department of Treasury to issue new and revised wind and solar tax credit guidance within 45 days, which could impose further practical limits on the development of wind and solar projects. In addition to this potential near term guidance, additional significant guidance from the Department of Treasury and the IRS is expected on the tax provisions included in the OBBBA. AEP will continue to monitor any issued guidance and evaluate the impact on future net income, cash flows and financial condition.

------

***Forward Sale of Equity***

In March 2025, AEP entered into separate forward sale agreements with non-affiliate forward purchasers relating to 22,549,020 shares of AEP's common stock at an initial price of $102.00 per share, exclusive of an underwriting discount equal to $2.244 per share. Except in certain specified circumstances that would require physical share settlement, AEP may elect to settle the forward sale transaction by means of physical, cash or net share settlement. The timing of the settlement of the forward sale agreements is also at AEP's discretion, and management currently expects settlement to occur on or prior to December 31, 2026. To the extent the forward sale agreements are physically settled, AEP will issue common stock to the forward purchasers and receive cash proceeds based on the applicable forward sale price on the settlement date as defined in the forward sale agreements. As of June 30, 2025, AEP expects approximately $2.25 billion of net cash proceeds from the full physical settlement of the forward sale agreements and management anticipates using any future proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include capital contributions to utility subsidiaries, acquisitions or repayment of debt. The forward sale transactions will be classified as equity transactions because they are indexed to AEP's common stock and physical settlement is within AEP's control.

***Valley Link Investment (Applies to AEP and Transource Energy)***

In 2024, Transource Energy and affiliates of Dominion Energy and FirstEnergy formed Valley Link Transmission, LLC to participate in PJM's 2024 Regional Transmission Expansion Plan competitive process. Valley Link proposed regional electric transmission upgrades for PJM's consideration during PJM's 2024 Reliability Window 1. In February 2025, PJM selected the upgrades proposed by Valley Link to address forecasted reliability requirements. The projects awarded by PJM are estimated to cost approximately $3 billion and Transource Energy's share of this investment is estimated to be $1.1 billion.

In March 2025, Valley Link's subsidiaries, including Valley Link Transmission Maryland, LLC, Valley Link Transmission Virginia, LLC and Valley Link Transmission West Virginia, LLC, submitted to FERC a request for acceptance of formula rates for each company, consisting of a formula rate template and implementation protocols, effective May 2025. The filing also requested approval of Federal Power Act Section 219 transmission incentive rate treatments for the projects awarded by PJM to the Valley Link subsidiaries. In May 2025, the FERC issued an order accepting the formula rate, granting the incentives for: (a) recovery of abandonment costs if the project is cancelled for reasons beyond Valley Link's control, (b) inclusion of CWIP in rates while the project is in development, (c) regulatory asset treatment for pre-commercial costs and (d) a 50-basis point ROE adder due to participation in an RTO. The order also initiated settlement proceedings to determine the companies' base ROE, hypothetical capital structures, formula rate template language and depreciation rates.

***Fuel Cell Agreement***

In November 2024, AEP executed a purchase agreement to acquire 100 MWs of solid oxide fuel cells with an option to acquire up to one gigawatt in total by the end of 2025. AEP, through its subsidiaries, is offering data centers and other large customers this custom solution to support their growing energy needs while grid infrastructure enhancements are completed to accommodate demand. As of June 30, 2025, OPCo has signed two contracts totaling approximately 98 MW for electricity service from fuel cells. In February 2025, OPCo requested PUCO approval of those two contracts. The PUCO approved the contracts in May 2025.

Ohio House Bill 15 repeals the statute that permits electric distribution utilities, including OPCo, to execute contracts to provide customer-sited renewable generation service such as fuel cell technology or other renewable resources after August 14, 2025, but grandfathered the two existing PUCO approved contracts. See "Ohio Legislation" section above for additional information.

------

***Customer Demand***

AEP uses sales volumes by customer class as a way to measure significant drivers of customer demand. The percentage change in sales volumes by customer class are shown in the table below. The increase in commercial sales volumes was primarily due to new data processor loads. The decline in industrial sales volumes is primarily due to the continuing impact of elevated interest rates and tariff-related headwinds. The year-to-date decline in weather-normalized residential sales volumes is primarily due to energy efficiency and continuing inflationary pressures.

![7994](aep-20250630_g1.jpg)

(a)Percentage change for the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024.

(b)Percentage change for the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.

The table below summarizes AEP's revised 2025 forecasted retail sales volumes as compared to the forecast presented in the 2024 10-K. The decline in forecasted 2025 sales volumes is primarily due to the continuing impact of elevated interest rates, tariff-related headwinds and slower than anticipated load ramps among certain large commercial customers.

![8796093143886](aep-20250630_g2.jpg)

(a)As presented in the 2024 AEP 10-K: Forecasted percentage change for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024.

(b)Revised: Forecasted percentage change for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The revised 2025 forecast reflects year-to-date actual results plus six months of forecasted values based on underlying economic and demographic trends.

***Inflation, Tariffs on International Trade and Supply Chain Disruption***

The Registrants have experienced certain supply chain constraints driven by several factors including international tensions and the ramifications of regional conflict, inflation, increased energy infrastructure construction to meet energy intensive customer demands, labor shortages in certain trades and shortages in the availability of certain raw materials. These supply chain constraints have not had a material impact on the Registrants' net income, cash flows and financial condition, but have extended lead times for certain goods and services and have contributed to higher prices for fuel, materials, labor, equipment and other needed commodities.

The U.S. administration has taken executive action and proposed additional measures intended to alter the U.S. approach to international trade policy, the terms of certain existing bilateral or multi-lateral trade agreements and trading arrangements with foreign countries. Such changes to U.S. international trade policy, and any retaliatory trade measures that foreign governments may take in response, including the imposition of tariffs, sanctions, export or import controls, or other measures that restrict international trade, or the threat of such actions, could result in additional increases in the cost of certain goods, services and cost of capital and further extend lead times.

Management has implemented risk mitigation strategies seeking to limit the impacts of these supply chain constraints. Forecasted load growth and tariffs on international trade may further impact supply chains in the future by increasing demand pressures for certain materials and services, thereby requiring additional risk mitigation strategies to be deployed.

A prolonged continuation or a further increase in the severity of inflationary pressure, heightened geopolitical disruptions and tariffs on international trade could result in additional supply chain disturbances. These events could lead to additional increases in the cost of certain goods, services and cost of capital and further extend lead times which could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***Large Load/Data Center Tariffs***

Certain AEP utility subsidiaries have made rate filings with state commissions to establish new tariffs for data centers and other large load customers. These new tariffs are generally designed to extend the duration of ESAs, implement higher minimum demand charges and address changes in contract capacity and termination of service. The table below provides a summary of the status of these new data center and large load tariffs.

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Jurisdiction** | **Large Load Tariff** | **Status** | **Customer Eligibility** |
| Indiana | Industrial Power | Approved | New load of 150 MW or more/70 MW for individual site |
| Kentucky | Industrial General Service | Approved | New commercial or industrial load of 150 MW or more |
| Ohio | Data Center | Approved | New data center load of 25 MW or more |
| Virginia | Large Power Service | Pending | New load of 150 MW or more/100 MW for individual site |
| West Virginia | Large Capacity/Industrial Power | Approved | New load of 200 MW or more |

---

In June 2025, Texas Senate Bill 6 (SB 6) became effective and was signed into law by the Governor of Texas. SB 6 establishes standards for connecting large load customers within ERCOT in a way that supports business development in Texas while minimizing the potential for stranded infrastructure costs. The new legislation provides authority and discretion to the PUCT to provide additional rulemaking related to implementing and enforcing its mandates.

***New Generation to Support Reliability***

The growth of AEP's regulated generation portfolio reflects the company's commitment to meet increasing customer demand for power while balancing cost and reliability.

*Significant Approved Renewable Generation Filings*

AEP has received regulatory approvals from various state regulatory commissions to acquire approximately 1,979 MWs of owned renewable generation facilities, totaling approximately $4.7 billion. The estimated cost of these facilities is included in the Budgeted Capital Expenditures disclosure included in the Financial Condition section below. In addition, AEP has received regulatory approvals for 637 MWs of renewable PPAs. The following table summarizes regulatory approvals received for active renewable projects as of June 30, 2025:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)APCo has issued notice to proceed for the construction of all 344 MWs of wind capacity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)PSO has issued notices to proceed for the construction of two wind facilities for a total capacity of 418 MWs. These facilities are part of the approved projects contemplated within PSO's 568 MWs of total new renewable generation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)The recently enacted OBBBA legislation is not expected to impact the qualification of federal tax incentives for these generation facilities.

*Natural Gas Generation*

In December 2024, SWEPCo filed an application for a Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN) with the APSC, LPSC and PUCT for the construction of the Hallsville Natural Gas Plant (450 MWs) and the fuel conversion of Welsh Plant, Units 1 and 3 to natural gas. In the application for the CCN, SWEPCo seeks to site the Hallsville Natural Gas Plant at the location of the now-retired Pirkey Power Plant. If approved, the projects will help SWEPCo address increasing SPP capacity requirements. SWEPCo estimates the combined capital cost of these projects is approximately $723 million and the projects would be placed in service between November 2027 and May 2028.

In February 2025, I&M entered into a PSA to acquire an 870 MW combined-cycle power generation facility located in Ohio. In April 2025, I&M submitted a FERC 203 application for the acquisition. If approved, the project will help I&M address increasing capacity and power needs. I&M expects to close on the transaction in the first quarter of 2026.

*Significant Generation Requests for Proposal (RFP)*

The table below includes active RFPs issued for both owned and purchased power generation. Projects selected will be subject to regulatory approval.

***Regulatory Matters - Utility Rates and Rate Proceedings***

The Registrants are involved in rate cases and other proceedings with their regulatory commissions in order to establish fair and appropriate electric service rates to recover their costs and earn a fair return on their investments. Depending on the outcomes, these rate cases and proceedings can have a material impact on results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

The following table summarizes the Registrants' pending base rate case proceedings. See Note 4 - Rate Matters for additional information.

***Other Significant Regulatory Matters***

*2025 West Virginia Securitization Filing*

In March 2025, APCo and WPCo (the Companies) requested to finance, through the issuance of securitization bonds, approximately $2.4 billion of West Virginia jurisdictional undepreciated property balances and regulatory assets including: (a) $321 million of the Companies' remaining combined unrecovered ENEC balance related to costs incurred through February 28, 2023, (b) $1.7 billion of undepreciated West Virginia jurisdictional plant balances as of December 31, 2022 for the Amos, Mitchell and Mountaineer Plants, (c) $237 million of environmental costs previously approved for recovery through a separate West Virginia surcharge and (d) $118 million of West Virginia jurisdictional major storm operation and maintenance costs deferred as of June 2024.

The Companies also proposed that the WVPSC consider approving the securitization of additional ENEC under-recovered costs, such as those costs approved in the 2024 ENEC case, as well as additional deferred West Virginia jurisdictional major storm operation and maintenance costs, such as those associated with Hurricane Helene and Winter Storms Blair, Harlow and Jett.

In May 2025, WVPSC staff recommended that the $321 million ENEC under-recovery and $118 million storm cost deferral be excluded from the securitization. Staff recommended that the $321 million ENEC under-recovery continue to be recovered through the current ENEC rates and the storm cost deferral be recovered without a carrying charge over five years through base rates to be implemented in August 2025. A hearing was held in July 2025 and an order is expected in the third quarter of 2025.

------

*2025 Virginia Securitization Legislation and Securitization Filing*

In March 2025, the Governor of Virginia signed into law amendments to the Virginia utility retail base rate and rider rate case processes applicable to APCo as well as definitions of assets that APCo may request for securitization in future filings, effective July 1, 2025. This legislation will move future APCo Virginia biennial base rate filing due dates from March 31<sup>st</sup> to May 31<sup>st</sup>, with a final Virginia SCC order to be issued on these future filings no later than January 15<sup>th</sup> of the subsequent year and resulting updated base rates implemented no earlier than March 1<sup>st</sup>. This legislation prohibits APCo from increasing Virginia retail rates during the winter heating months of November through February. Finally, this legislation also allows APCo to file with the Virginia SCC, no earlier than July 1, 2025, a request seeking permission to securitize major storm costs incurred starting January 1, 2024 as well as the remaining December 31, 2023 Virginia retail net book values of APCo's Amos and Mountaineer Plants.

In July 2025, APCo filed a request with the Virginia SCC to finance, through the issuance of securitization bonds, approximately $1.4 billion of Virginia jurisdictional undepreciated property balances and a major storm operation and maintenance regulatory asset deferral balance. This proposed securitization included: (a) $1.2 billion of undepreciated Virginia jurisdictional plant balances as of December 31, 2023 for the Amos and Mountaineer Plants and (b) $141 million of Virginia jurisdictional major storm other operation and maintenance expenses deferred during the 2024-2025 biennial period.

**LITIGATION**

In the ordinary course of business, AEP is involved in employment, commercial, environmental and regulatory litigation. Since it is difficult to predict the outcome of these proceedings, management cannot predict the eventual resolution, timing or amount of any loss, fine or penalty. Management assesses the probability of loss for each contingency and accrues a liability for cases that have a probable likelihood of loss if the loss can be estimated. Adverse results in these proceedings have the potential to reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition. See Note 4 – Rate Matters and Note 5 – Commitments, Guarantees and Contingencies for additional information.

***Claims for Indemnification Made by Owners of the Gavin Power Station***

In November 2022, the Federal EPA issued a final decision denying Gavin Power LLC's requested extension to allow a CCR surface impoundment at the Gavin Power Station to continue to receive CCR and non-CCR waste streams after April 11, 2021 until May 4, 2023 (the Gavin Denial). As part of the Gavin Denial, the Federal EPA made several assertions related to the CCR Rule (see "CCR Rule" section below for additional information), including an assertion that the closure of the 300 acre unlined fly ash reservoir (FAR) is noncompliant with the CCR Rule in multiple respects. The Gavin Power Station was formerly owned and operated by AEP and was sold to Gavin Power LLC and Lightstone Generation LLC in 2017. Pursuant to the PSA, AEP maintained responsibility to complete closure of the FAR in accordance with the closure plan approved by the Ohio EPA which was completed in July 2021. The PSA contains indemnification provisions, pursuant to which the owners of the Gavin Power Station have notified AEP they believe they are entitled to indemnification for any damages that may result from these claims, including any future enforcement or litigation resulting from any determinations of noncompliance by the Federal EPA with various aspects of the CCR Rule consistent with the Gavin Denial. The owners of the Gavin Power Station have also sought indemnification for landowner claims for property damage allegedly caused by modifications to the FAR. Management does not believe that the owners of the Gavin Power Station have any valid claim for indemnity or otherwise against AEP under the PSA. In January 2024, Gavin Power LLC also filed a complaint with the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio, alleging various violations of the Administrative Procedure Act and asserting that the Federal EPA, through its prior inaction, has waived and is estopped from raising certain objections raised in the Gavin Denial. Based on the information currently available, management does not believe a loss is probable and cannot determine a range of potential losses, if any, that is reasonably possible of occurring.

**ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES**

AEP has a substantial capital investment program and incurs additional operational costs to comply with environmental control requirements. Additional investments and operational changes will be made in response to existing and potential future requirements to reduce emissions from fossil generation and in response to rules governing the beneficial use and disposal of coal combustion by-products, clean water and renewal permits for certain water discharges. AEP is unable to predict changes in regulations, regulatory guidance, legal interpretations, policy positions and implementation actions that may result from the current Presidential administration.

AEP is engaged in litigation about environmental issues, was notified of potential responsibility for the clean-up of contaminated sites and incurred costs for disposal of SNF and future decommissioning of the nuclear units. Management is engaged in the development of possible future requirements including the items discussed below.

AEP will seek recovery of expenditures for pollution control technologies and associated costs from customers through rates in regulated jurisdictions. Environmental rules could result in accelerated depreciation, impairment of assets or regulatory disallowances. If AEP cannot recover the costs of environmental compliance, it would reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

------

***Impact of Environmental Compliance on the Generating Fleet***

The rules and environmental control requirements discussed below will have a material impact on AEP's operations. As of June 30, 2025, AEP owned generating capacity of approximately 24,400 MWs, of which approximately 10,700 MWs were coal-fired. In April 2024, the Federal EPA announced four major new rules directed at fossil-fuel electric generation facilities. Management continues to evaluate the impacts of these rules on the plans for the future of AEP's generating fleet, in particular, the economic feasibility of making the requisite environmental investments in AEP's fossil generation fleet. AEP continues to refine the cost estimates of complying with these rules to identify the best alternative for ensuring compliance with all of the rules while meeting AEP's obligations to provide reliable and affordable electricity.

The costs of complying with new rules may also change based on: (a) potential state rules that impose additional more stringent standards, (b) additional rulemaking activities in response to court decisions, (c) actual performance of the pollution control technologies installed, (d) changes in costs for new pollution controls, (e) new generating technology developments, (f) total MWs of capacity retired and replaced, including the type and amount of such replacement capacity, (g) policy changes implemented by the Presidential administration and (h) other factors. In 2025, the Federal EPA under the current Presidential administration has proposed to rescind some of those rules and is evaluating potential changes to others.

***Clean Air Act Requirements***

The CAA establishes a comprehensive program to protect and improve the nation's air quality and control sources of air emissions. The states implement and administer many of these programs and could impose additional or more stringent requirements. The primary regulatory programs that continue to drive investments in AEP's existing generating units include: (a) periodic revisions to NAAQS and the development of SIPs to achieve more stringent standards, (b) implementation of the regional haze program by the states and the Federal EPA, (c) regulation of hazardous air pollutant emissions under MATS, (d) implementation and review of CSAPR and (e) the Federal EPA's regulation of GHG emissions from fossil generation under Section 111 of the CAA. Notable developments in significant CAA regulatory requirements affecting AEP's operations are discussed in the following sections.

*National Ambient Air Quality Standards*

The Federal EPA periodically reviews and revises the NAAQS for criteria pollutants under the CAA. Revisions tend to increase the stringency of the standards, which in turn may require AEP to make investments in pollution control equipment at existing generating units, or, since most units are already well controlled, to make changes in how units are dispatched and operated. In February 2024, the Federal EPA finalized a new more stringent annual primary PM2.5 standard.

Areas with air quality that does not meet the new standard will be designated by the Federal EPA as "nonattainment," which will trigger an obligation for states to revise their SIPs to include additional requirements, resulting in further emission reductions to ensure that the new standard will be met. Areas around some of AEP's generating facilities may be deemed nonattainment, which may require those facilities to install additional pollution controls or to implement operational constraints. The nonattainment designations by the Federal EPA and the subsequent SIP revisions by the affected states will take some time to complete; therefore, management cannot reasonably estimate the impact on AEP's operations, cash flows, net income or financial condition.

*Regional Haze*

The Federal EPA issued a Clean Air Visibility Rule (CAVR) in 2005, which could require power plants and other facilities to install best available retrofit technology to address regional haze in federal parks and other protected areas. CAVR is implemented by the states, through SIPs, or by the Federal EPA, through FIPs. In 2017, the Federal EPA revised the rules governing submission of SIPs to implement the visibility programs. Petitions for review of the final rule revisions were filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. In early 2018, the Federal EPA announced plans to revisit aspects of the final rule raised by petitioners in petitions for administrative reconsideration, and the court granted the Federal EPA's motion to hold the litigation in abeyance.

The Federal EPA disapproved portions of the Texas regional haze SIP and finalized a FIP that allows participation in the CSAPR ozone season program to satisfy the NOX regional haze obligations for electric generating units in Texas. Additionally, the Federal EPA finalized an intrastate SO2 emissions trading program based on CSAPR allowance allocations. Environmental groups filed challenges to these various rulemakings in district courts in the Fifth Circuit and the District of Columbia Circuit. Management cannot predict the outcome of that litigation, although management supports the intrastate trading program as a compliance alternative to source-specific controls and intervened in the Fifth Circuit litigation in support of the Federal EPA. In July 2024, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia Circuit entered a consent decree setting deadlines for the Federal EPA to rule on Regional Haze SIPs for 32 states, including Texas. In September 2024, the Federal EPA signed a proposed rule to partially approve and partially disapprove the Texas SIP revision. In May 2025, the Federal EPA proposed to

------

withdraw the prior proposed rule, including the proposed partial disapproval of the Texas SIP revision, and instead has proposed to approve the Texas Regional Haze SIP.

***Cross-State Air Pollution Rule***

CSAPR is a regional trading program that the Federal EPA began implementing in 2015 to address interstate transport of emissions that contribute significantly to nonattainment and interfere with maintenance of the 1997 ozone NAAQS and the 1997 and 2006 PM2.5 NAAQS in downwind states. CSAPR relies on SO2 and NOX allowances and individual state budgets to compel further emission reductions from electric utility generating units. Interstate trading of allowances is allowed on a restricted basis. The Federal EPA has revised, or updated, the CSAPR trading programs several times since they were established.

In January 2021, the Federal EPA finalized a revised CSAPR, which substantially reduced the ozone season NOX budgets for several states, including states where AEP operates, beginning in ozone season 2021. AEP has been able to meet the requirements of the revised rule over the first few years of implementation, and is evaluating its compliance options for later years, when the budgets are further reduced.

In February 2023, the Federal EPA Administrator finalized the disapproval of interstate transport SIPs submitted by 19 states, including Texas, addressing the 2015 Ozone NAAQS. The Federal EPA disapproved interstate transport SIPs submitted by additional states soon thereafter. Disapproval of the SIPs provided the Federal EPA with authority to impose a FIP for those states, replacing the SIPs that were disapproved. In August 2023, a FIP (the Good Neighbor Plan) went into effect that further revised the ozone season NOX budgets under the existing CSAPR program in states to which the FIP applies. As a result of several separate legal challenges brought by states and industry parties in various federal courts, implementation of the FIP has been stayed in all of the states in which AEP operates. In October 2024, the Federal EPA issued a final rule to administratively stay the effectiveness of the Good Neighbor Plan's requirements for all sources covered by that rule as promulgated where an administrative stay was not already in place. The administrative stay of the Good Neighbor Plan's effectiveness for power plants and other industrial facilities in each of the 23 states will remain in place until the Supreme Court lifts its order staying enforcement of the Good Neighbor Plan, other courts lift any judicial orders staying the SIP disapproval action as to the state, and the Federal EPA takes subsequent rulemaking action consistent with any judicial rulings on the merits. Additionally, in February 2025, the Federal EPA filed a motion with the court seeking to hold the legal challenges related to the Good Neighbor Plan in abeyance for 60 days, to allow the new administration time to review the rule. In March 2025, the Federal EPA filed a motion for the Good Neighbor Plan to remand the rule while leaving it in effect, indicating that the Federal EPA has identified issues with the rule that make reconsideration of issues, including issues raised in the litigation, appropriate. In April 2025, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals removed the cases challenging the Good Neighbor Plan from the oral argument calendar and placed the cases in abeyance pending further order of the court, with status reports to be filed at 90-day intervals beginning July 14, 2025. The order further requires the parties to file motions to govern further proceedings within 30 days of the Federal EPA's completion of its review of the rule. Management will continue to monitor this litigation and any further actions by the Federal EPA for any potential impact to operations.

***Climate Change, CO2 Regulation and Energy Policy***

In April 2024, the Administrator of the Federal EPA signed new GHG standards and guidelines for new and existing fossil-fuel fired sources. The rule relies on carbon capture and sequestration and natural gas co-firing as means to reduce CO2 emissions from coal fired plants and carbon capture and sequestration or limited utilization to reduce CO2 emissions from new gas turbines. The rule also offers early retirement of coal plants in lieu of carbon capture and storage as an alternative means of compliance.

The rule has been challenged by 27 states, numerous companies, trade associations and others. AEP has joined with several other utilities to challenge the rule and has asked the court to stay the rule during the litigation, and the appeals have been consolidated. In July 2024, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit denied those motions to stay and several parties, including AEP and other utilities, filed applications with the United States Supreme Court seeking an emergency stay. The Supreme Court denied those applications in October 2024 and the challenges to the rule before the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals were placed on an expedited schedule, with oral arguments held in December 2024. On February 5, 2025, the Federal EPA filed an unopposed motion asking the court to withhold issuing an opinion and to hold the case in abeyance for 60 days to allow the new Agency leadership to review the underlying rule. The court granted that motion on February 19, 2025 and ordered the parties to file motions to govern further proceedings by April 21, 2025. On April 21, 2025, the Federal EPA filed an unopposed motion to hold the case in abeyance while the Federal EPA conducts a rulemaking to reassess the challenged rule, with status reports due every 90 days. The court has not ruled on that motion. On June 11, 2025, the Federal EPA proposed to determine that GHG emissions from fossil-fueled power plants do not significantly contribute to air pollution that may endanger public health or the environment. This determination would eliminate all GHG standards for existing and new fossil-fuel plants. As an alternative, the Federal EPA proposed to eliminate GHG standards for existing coal

------

and gas units and to keep only certain emission limits applicable to new sources. These proposals have not been finalized. On July 29, 2025, the Federal EPA announced that it would be proposing a repeal of the 2009 Endangerment Finding, which determined that greenhouse gas emissions endanger public health and welfare. The 2009 Endangerment Finding is the basis of Federal EPA's authority to regulate greenhouse gas emissions under the Clean Air Act and was used to first regulate motor vehicle emissions. We are evaluating the Federal EPA's proposed repeal of the 2009 Endangerment Finding and its impact on Federal EPA's authority to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from electric generators. Management cannot predict the outcome of the current litigation or Federal EPA's proposed actions related to the rule or the Endangerment Finding and any subsequent litigation that may result. Excessive costs to comply with environmental regulations have led to the announcement of early plant closures across the country. The Federal EPA's 2024 GHG rules, and suite of other new rules issued simultaneously and discussed below, are directed at the fossil-fuel fired electric utility industry and could force AEP to close additional coal-fired generation facilities earlier than their estimated useful life, if those rules remain in place. If AEP is unable to recover the costs of its investments, it would reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***MATS Rule***

In April 2024, the Federal EPA issued a revised MATS rule for power plants. The rule includes a more stringent standard for emissions of filterable PM for coal-fired electric generating units, as well as a new mercury standard for lignite-fired electric generating units. The rule also requires the installation and operation of continuous emissions monitors for PM. Several states and other parties have challenged the rule in the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, but management cannot predict the outcome of the litigation. The litigation is being held in abeyance while the current Presidential administration evaluates the rule. In April 2025, the President issued a Proclamation exempting certain generation sources from the requirement to comply with the 2024 MATS rule for two years beyond the rule's compliance date. In June 2025, the Federal EPA proposed to repeal the 2024 MATS rule and revert to the 2012 MATS rule emission standards. Management does not anticipate any significant challenges complying with the 2024 MATS rule, should the proposed repeal not be finalized.

***CCR Rule***

***Clean Water Act Regulations***

The Federal EPA's ELG rule for generating facilities establishes limits for FGD wastewater, fly ash and bottom ash transport water and flue gas mercury control wastewater, which are to be implemented through each facility's wastewater discharge permit. A revision to the ELG rule, published in October 2020, established additional options for reusing and discharging small volumes of bottom ash transport water, provided an exception for retiring units and extended the compliance deadline to a date as soon as possible beginning one year after the rule was published but no later than December 2025. Management has assessed technology additions and retrofits to comply with the rule and the impacts of the Federal EPA's actions on facilities' wastewater discharge permitting for FGD wastewater and bottom ash transport water. For affected facilities required to install additional technologies to meet the ELG rule limits, permit modifications were filed in January 2021 that reflect the outcome of that assessment. AEP continues to work with state agencies to finalize permit terms and conditions. Other facilities opted to file Notices of Planned Participation (NOPP), pursuant to which the facilities are not required to install additional controls to meet ELG limits provided they make commitments to cease coal combustion by a date certain.

In April 2024, the Federal EPA finalized further revisions to the ELG rule that establish a zero liquid discharge standard for FGD wastewater, bottom ash transport water, and managed combustion residual leachate, as well as more stringent discharge limits for unmanaged combustion residual leachate. The revised rule provides a new compliance alternative that would eliminate the need to install zero liquid discharge systems for facilities that comply with the 2020 rule's control technology requirements and commit by December 31, 2025, to retire by 2034. Management is evaluating the compliance alternatives in the rule, taking into consideration the requirements of the other new rules and their combined impacts to operations. Several appeals have been filed with various federal courts challenging the 2024 ELG rule. SWEPCo has also challenged the rule, by filing a joint appeal with a utility trade association in which AEP participates. The various appeals have been consolidated before the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. SWEPCo and the utility trade association filed a motion to stay the rule during the litigation. In October 2024, the court denied the motion. The litigation challenging the ELG Rule is

------

being held in abeyance while the new administration evaluates the rule. In March 2025, the Federal EPA announced plans to reconsider the standards established by the 2024 ELG rule. Management cannot predict the outcome of the litigation or any further actions by the Federal EPA related to the ELG rule.

The definition of "waters of the United States" has been subject to rule-making and litigation which has led to inconsistent scope among the states. Management will continue to monitor developments in rule-making and litigation for any potential impact to operations.

***Impact of Environmental Regulation on Coal-Fired Generation***

Compliance with extensive environmental regulations requires significant capital investment in environmental monitoring, installation of pollution control equipment, emission fees, disposal, remediation and permits. Management continuously evaluates cost estimates of complying with these regulations which may result in a decision to retire coal-fired generating facilities earlier than their currently estimated useful lives.

The table below summarizes the net book value, as of June 30, 2025, of generating facilities retired or planned for early retirement in advance of the retirement date currently authorized for ratemaking purposes:

(a)Net book value, including CWIP, excluding cost of removal and materials and supplies.

(b)These amounts represent the amount of annual depreciation that has been collected from customers over the prior 12-month period.

(c)Northeastern Plant, Unit 3 is currently being recovered through 2040. In April 2025, PSO and ODEQ finalized a second amended regional haze agreement that would allow continued operation of the Northeastern Plant, Unit 3, on natural gas, through May 31, 2041. This agreement is contingent upon approval by the Federal EPA in the form of a revised SIP. ODEQ is in the process of preparing a SIP submission for the Federal EPA's review and approval.

(d)Represents Arkansas and Texas jurisdictional share.

(e)As part of the 2021 Arkansas Base Rate Case, the APSC granted SWEPCo regulatory asset treatment. SWEPCo is seeking recovery of the $37 million Arkansas jurisdictional share and a weighted average cost of capital carrying charge in the base rate case filed in March 2025. The Texas share of the Pirkey Plant will be addressed in SWEPCo's next base rate case. See the "Regulated Generating Units" section of Note 4 for additional information.

(f)In November 2020, management announced it will cease using coal at the Welsh Plant in 2028. In December 2024, SWEPCo filed an application for a Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN) with the APSC, LPSC and PUCT to convert Welsh Plant, Units 1 and 3 to natural gas in 2028 and 2027, respectively.

(g)Welsh Plant, Unit 1 is being recovered through 2027 in the Louisiana jurisdiction and through 2037 in the Arkansas and Texas jurisdictions. Welsh Plant, Unit 3 is being recovered through 2032 in the Louisiana jurisdiction and through 2042 in the Arkansas and Texas jurisdictions.

Management is seeking or will seek regulatory recovery, as necessary, for any net book value remaining when the plants are retired. To the extent the net book value of these generation assets is not deemed recoverable, it could materially reduce future net income, cash flows and impact financial condition.

**<u>RESULTS OF OPERATIONS</u>**

**AEP's Reportable Segments**

AEP's primary business is the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity. Within its Vertically Integrated Utilities segment, AEP centrally dispatches generation assets and manages its overall utility operations on an integrated basis because of the substantial impact of cost-based rates and regulatory oversight applicable to each public utility subsidiary. Intersegment sales and transfers are generally based on underlying contractual arrangements and agreements. AEP's reportable segments are as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Vertically Integrated Utilities

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Transmission and Distribution Utilities

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• AEP Transmission Holdco

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Generation & Marketing

The remainder of AEP's activities are presented as Corporate and Other, which is not considered a reportable segment. See Note 8 - Business Segments for additional information on AEP's segments.

The following discussion of AEP's results of operations by operating segment provides a comparison of earnings (loss) attributable to AEP Common Shareholders for the three months ended and six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended and six months ended June 30, 2024 in accordance with GAAP. For AEP's Vertically Integrated Utilities and Transmission and Distribution Utilities segments and Registrant Subsidiaries within these segments, the results include revenues from rate rider mechanisms designed to recover fuel, purchased power and other recoverable expenses such that the revenues and expenses associated with these items generally offset and do not affect Earnings Attributable to AEP Common Shareholders. For additional information regarding the financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, see the discussions of Results of Operations by Subsidiary Registrant.

A detailed discussion of AEP's 2024 results of operations by operating segment can be found in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation section included in the 2024 Annual Report.

The following table presents Earnings (Loss) Attributable to AEP Common Shareholders by segment:

See Note 8 - Business Segments for additional information on Earnings (Loss) Attributable to AEP Common Shareholders by segment.

**Heating Degree Days and Cooling Degree Days** 

Heating degree days and cooling degree days are metrics commonly used in the utility industry as a measure of the impact of weather on revenues. In general, degree day changes in the Eastern Region have a larger effect on revenues than changes in the Western Region due to the relative size of the two regions and the number of customers within each region.

The actual heating degree days are calculated on a 55-degree temperature base and the actual cooling degree days are calculated on a 65-degree temperature base for Registrant Subsidiaries except AEP Texas. AEP Texas' actual heating degree days are calculated on a 55-degree temperature base and actual cooling degree days are calculated on a 70-degree temperature base. Due to the recent more volatile weather, effective in January 2025, the calculation methodology for heating degree days and cooling degree days was changed from a daily minimum/maximum average temperature over a thirty-year period to a daily hourly average temperature over a twenty-year period. This change did not have a material impact on the Registrants' discussion of weather-related usage.

***Second Quarter of 2025 Compared to Second Quarter of 2024***

The major components of the increase in Revenues were as follows:

• **Retail Revenues** increased $38 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $43 million increase in base case and rider revenues.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $24 million increase in weather-normalized revenues primarily in the commercial and industrial classes in Ohio.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An $11 million decrease due to lower prices and lower customer participation in OPCo's SSO.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $9 million decrease in weather-related usage driven by a 20% decrease in cooling degree days in the Eastern Region and a 17% decrease in cooling degree days in the Western Region.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $7 million decrease in weather-normalized revenues primarily in the residential class in Texas.

• **Off-system Sales** increased $13 million primarily due to increased sales of OVEC purchased power driven by higher market prices and volume.

• **Transmission Revenues** decreased $6 million primarily due to the following:

**<u>FINANCIAL CONDITION</u>**

AEP measures financial condition by the strength of its balance sheet and the liquidity provided by its cash flows.

**LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES**

***Debt and Equity Capitalization***

|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **June 30, 2025** | **June 30, 2025** | **December 31, 2024** | **December 31, 2024** |
| | **(dollars in millions)** | **(dollars in millions)** | **(dollars in millions)** | **(dollars in millions)** |
| Long-term Debt, including amounts due within one year | $44525.5 | 57.8% | $42642.8 | 59.1% |
| Short-term Debt | 1501.6 | 2.0 | 2523.8 | 3.5 |
| Total Debt | 46027.1 | 59.8 | 45166.6 | 62.6 |
| AEP Common Equity | 29871.1 | 38.8 | 26943.8 | 37.3 |
| Noncontrolling Interests | 1097.3 | 1.4 | 42.3 | 0.1 |
| **Total Debt and Equity Capitalization** | $76995.5 | 100.0% | $72152.7 | 100.0% |

---

AEP's ratio of debt-to-total capital decreased from 62.6% to 59.8% as of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2025, respectively, primarily due to an increase in earnings and the Midwest Transmission Holdings Noncontrolling Interest transaction, partially offset by an increase in long-term debt to support our capital investment plan in addition to working capital needs.

***Liquidity***

Liquidity, or access to cash, is an important factor in determining AEP's financial stability. Management believes AEP has adequate liquidity for the next twelve months and foreseeable future. As of June 30, 2025, AEP had $6 billion of revolving credit facilities to support its commercial paper program. Additional liquidity is available from cash from operations and a receivables securitization agreement. Management is committed to maintaining adequate liquidity. AEP generally uses short-term borrowings to fund working capital needs, property acquisitions and construction until long-term funding is arranged. Sources of long-term funding include issuance of long-term debt, long-term asset securitizations, leasing agreements, hybrid securities or common stock, including the settlement of the March 2025 forward sale of equity, which is expected to occur on or prior to December 31, 2026. AEP and its utilities finance its operations with commercial paper and other variable rate instruments that are subject to fluctuations in interest rates. To the extent that there is an increase in interest rates, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

Market volatility and reduced liquidity in the financial markets could affect AEP's ability to raise capital on reasonable terms to fund capital needs, including construction costs and refinancing maturing indebtedness. AEP continues monitoring the current bank environment and any impacts thereof. AEP was not materially impacted by these conditions during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

*Net Available Liquidity*

AEP manages liquidity by maintaining adequate external financing commitments. As of June 30, 2025, available liquidity was approximately $5.6 billion as illustrated in the table below:

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | | **Amount** | **Maturity** |
| Commercial Paper Backup: | Commercial Paper Backup: | **(in millions)** | |

| **Net Available Liquidity** | **Net Available Liquidity** | $5627.3 |  |

AEP uses its commercial paper program to meet the short-term borrowing needs of its subsidiaries. The program funds a Utility Money Pool, which funds AEP's utility subsidiaries; a Nonutility Money Pool, which funds certain AEP nonutility subsidiaries; and the short-term debt requirements of subsidiaries that are not participating in either money pool for regulatory or operational reasons, as direct borrowers. The maximum amount of commercial paper outstanding during the first six months of 2025 was $2.9 billion. The weighted-average interest rate for AEP's commercial paper for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was 4.64%.

------

*Other Credit Facilities*

An uncommitted facility gives the issuer of the facility the right to accept or decline each request made under the facility. AEP issues letters of credit on behalf of subsidiaries under six uncommitted facilities totaling $450 million. The Registrants' maximum future payments for letters of credit issued under the uncommitted facilities as of June 30, 2025 was $361 million with maturities ranging from July 2025 to July 2026.

*Securitized Accounts Receivables*

AEP Credit's receivables securitization agreement provides a commitment of $900 million from bank conduits to purchase receivables and expires in September 2026. As of June 30, 2025, the affiliated utility subsidiaries were in compliance with all requirements under the agreement.

*Debt Covenants and Borrowing Limitations*

AEP's credit agreements contain certain covenants and require it to maintain a percentage of debt-to-total capitalization at a level that does not exceed 67.5%. The method for calculating outstanding debt and capitalization is contractually-defined in AEP's credit agreements. Debt as defined in the revolving credit agreement excludes securitization bonds and debt of AEP Credit. As of June 30, 2025, this contractually-defined percentage was 56.6%. Non-performance under these covenants could result in an event of default under these credit agreements. In addition, the acceleration of AEP's payment obligations, or the obligations of certain of AEP's major subsidiaries, prior to maturity under any other agreement or instrument relating to debt outstanding in excess of $100 million, would cause an event of default under these credit agreements. This condition also applies, at the more restrictive level of $50 million of debt outstanding, in a majority of AEP's non-exchange-traded commodity contracts and would similarly allow lenders and counterparties to declare the outstanding amounts payable. However, a default under AEP's non-exchange-traded commodity contracts would not cause an event of default under its credit agreements.

The revolving credit facilities do not permit the lenders to refuse a draw on any facility if a material adverse change occurs.

Utility Money Pool borrowings and external borrowings may not exceed amounts authorized by regulatory orders and AEP manages its borrowings to stay within those authorized limits.

*March 2025 Forward Sale of Equity*

See "Forward Sale of Equity" section of Note 13 for additional information regarding AEP's forward sale of 22,549,020 shares of common stock in March 2025.

*ATM Program*

In 2024, approximately $0.4 billion of common stock was offered and sold under the ATM program. There were no issuances under the ATM program for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Approximately $1.3 billion of equity is available for issuance under the ATM program upon the filing of a prospectus supplement.

*Dividend Policy and Restrictions*

The Board of Directors of AEP (AEP Board) declared a quarterly dividend of $0.93 per share in July 2025. Future dividends are at the discretion of the AEP Board and may vary depending upon AEP's profit levels, operating cash flow levels and capital requirements, as well as financial and other business conditions existing at the time. Parent's income primarily derives from common stock equity in the earnings of its utility subsidiaries. Various financing arrangements and regulatory requirements may impose certain restrictions on the ability of the subsidiaries to transfer funds to Parent in the form of dividends. Management does not believe these restrictions will have any significant impact on its ability to access cash to meet the payment of dividends on its common stock. See "Dividend Restrictions" section of Note 13 for additional information.

*Credit Ratings*

AEP and its utility subsidiaries do not have any credit arrangements that would require material changes in payment schedules or terminations as a result of a credit downgrade, but its access to the commercial paper market may depend on its credit ratings. In addition, downgrades in AEP's credit ratings by one of the rating agencies could increase its borrowing costs. Counterparty concerns about the credit quality of AEP or its utility subsidiaries could subject AEP to additional collateral demands under adequate assurance clauses under its derivative and non-derivative energy contracts.

------

**CASH FLOW**

AEP relies primarily on cash flows from operations, debt issuances, issuances of common stock and its existing cash and cash equivalents to fund its liquidity and investing activities. AEP's investing and capital requirements are primarily capital expenditures, repaying of long-term debt and paying dividends to shareholders. AEP uses short-term debt, including commercial paper and bank term loans, as a bridge to long-term debt financing. The levels of borrowing may vary significantly due to the timing of long-term debt financings and the impact of fluctuations in cash flows.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Non-Cash Adjustments to Net Income includes Depreciation and Amortization, Deferred Income Taxes, Asset Impairments and Other Related Charges and AFUDC.

**Net Cash Flows from Operating Activities** decreased by $233 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $457 million decrease in cash from Change in Other Noncurrent Assets and Change in Other Noncurrent Liabilities. This decrease is primarily due to changes in regulatory assets and liabilities driven by timing differences in collections from and refunds to customers under rate rider mechanisms.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $166 million decrease in cash due to changes in risk management contract collateral positions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $161 million decrease in cash primarily due to the timing of fuel and purchase power related revenues and expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $95 million decrease in cash due to a discretionary contribution to the qualified pension plan. See Note 7 - Benefit Plans for additional information.

These decreases in cash were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $664 million increase in cash from Net Income, after non-cash adjustments. See "Results of Operations" for further detail.

**BUDGETED CAPITAL EXPENDITURES**

Management forecasts approximately $11.5 billion of capital expenditures in 2025. For the four-year period, 2026 through 2029, management forecasts capital expenditures of $42.9 billion. Management's forecasted capital expenditures reflect planned increases in investments for transmission infrastructure and new generation resources to support forecasted large load increases and continued improvements in distribution system reliability.

Estimated capital expenditures are subject to periodic review and modification and may vary based on the ongoing effects of regulatory constraints, environmental regulations, business opportunities, market volatility, economic trends, supply chain issues, weather, legal reviews, inflation and the ability to access capital. Management has funded, or expects to fund, these capital expenditures through cash flows from operations, proceeds from the strategic sale of assets and financing activities. Generally, the Registrant Subsidiaries use cash or short-term borrowings under the money pool to fund these expenditures until long-term funding is arranged. For more information of forecasted capital expenditures, see the "Budgeted Capital Expenditures" section of "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the 2024 Annual Report.

**<u>SIGNIFICANT CASH REQUIREMENTS</u>**

A summary of significant cash requirements is included in the 2024 Annual Report and has not changed significantly from year-end other than the debt issuances and retirements discussed in the "Cash Flow" section above.

**<u>QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK</u>**

***Market Risks***

The Vertically Integrated Utilities segment is exposed to certain market risks as a major power producer and through transactions in power, coal, natural gas and marketing contracts. These risks include commodity price risks which may be subject to capacity risk, credit risk as well as interest rate risk. These risks represent the risk of loss that may impact this segment due to changes in the underlying market prices or rates.

The Transmission and Distribution Utilities segment is exposed to energy procurement risk and interest rate risk.

The Generation & Marketing segment conducts marketing, risk management and retail activities in ERCOT, PJM, SPP and MISO. This segment is exposed to certain market risks as a marketer of wholesale and retail electricity. These risks include commodity price risks which may be subject to capacity risk, credit risk as well as interest rate risk. These risks represent the risk of loss that may impact this segment due to changes in the underlying market prices or rates. In addition, the Generation & Marketing segment is also exposed to certain market risks as a power producer and through transactions in wholesale electricity, natural gas and marketing contracts.

Management employs risk management contracts including physical forward and financial forward purchase-and-sale contracts. Management engages in risk management of power, capacity, coal, natural gas and, to a lesser extent, heating oil, gasoline and other commodity contracts to manage the risk associated with the energy business. As a result, AEP is subject to price risk. The amount of risk taken is determined by the Commercial Operations, Energy Supply and Finance groups in accordance with established risk management policies as approved by the Finance Committee of the AEP Board. AEPSC's market risk oversight staff independently monitors risk policies, procedures and risk levels and provides members of the Regulated Risk Committee and the Energy Supply Risk Committee (Competitive Risk Committee) various reports regarding compliance with policies, limits and procedures. The Regulated Risk Committee consists of AEPSC's Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer, Senior Vice President and Treasurer, and Senior Vice President of Regulated Commercial Operations. The Competitive Risk Committee consists of AEPSC's Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer, Senior Vice President and Treasurer, and Senior Vice President of Competitive Commercial Operations. When commercial activities exceed predetermined limits, positions are modified to reduce the risk to be within the limits unless specifically approved by the respective committee.

The following table summarizes the reasons for changes in total MTM value as compared to December 31, 2024:

---

------

(a)Reflects fair value on primarily auctions or long-term structured contracts which are typically with customers that seek fixed pricing to limit their risk against fluctuating energy prices. The contract prices are valued against market curves associated with the delivery location and delivery term. A significant portion of the total volumetric position has been economically hedged.

(b)Market fluctuations are attributable to various factors such as supply/demand, weather, etc.

(c)Relates to the net gains (losses) of those contracts that are not reflected on the statements of income. These net gains (losses) are recorded as regulatory liabilities/assets or accounts payable on the balance sheet.

See Note 9 – Derivatives and Hedging and Note 10 – Fair Value Measurements for additional information related to risk management contracts. The following tables and discussion provide information on credit risk and market volatility risk.

***Credit Risk***

Credit risk is mitigated in wholesale marketing and trading activities by assessing the creditworthiness of potential counterparties before entering into transactions with them and continuing to evaluate their creditworthiness on an ongoing basis. Management uses credit agency ratings and current market-based qualitative and quantitative data as well as financial statements to assess the financial health of counterparties on an ongoing basis.

AEP has risk management contracts (includes non-derivative contracts) with numerous counterparties. Since open risk management contracts are valued based on changes in market prices of the related commodities, exposures change daily. As of June 30, 2025, credit exposure net of collateral to sub investment grade counterparties was approximately 6.2%, expressed in terms of net MTM assets, net receivables and the net open positions for contracts not subject to MTM (representing economic risk even though there may not be risk of accounting loss).

As of June 30, 2025, the following table approximates AEP's counterparty credit quality and exposure based on netting across commodities, instruments and legal entities where applicable:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Counterparty Credit Quality** | **Exposure <br>Before <br>Credit <br>Collateral** | **Credit <br>Collateral** | **Net <br>Exposure** | **Number of <br>Counterparties<br>>10% of <br>Net Exposure** | **Net Exposure <br>of<br>Counterparties <br>>10%** |
| | **(in millions, except number of counterparties)** | **(in millions, except number of counterparties)** | **(in millions, except number of counterparties)** | **(in millions, except number of counterparties)** | **(in millions, except number of counterparties)** |
| Investment Grade | $642.8 | $94.9 | $547.9 | 3 | $351.1 |
| Non-investment Grade | 3.5 |  | 3.5 | 2 | 3.5 |
| No External Ratings: |  |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Internal Investment Grade | 18.4 |  | 18.4 | 3 | 13.4 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Internal Non-investment Grade | 104.4 | 70.5 | 33.9 | 2 | 27.8 |
| **Total as of June 30, 2025** | $769.1 | $165.4 | $603.7 |  |  |

---

All exposure in the table above relates to AEPSC and AEPEP as AEPSC is agent for and transacts on behalf of certain AEP subsidiaries, including the Registrant Subsidiaries and AEPEP is agent for, and transacts on behalf of, other AEP subsidiaries.

In addition, AEP is exposed to credit risk related to participation in RTOs. For each of the RTOs in which AEP participates, this risk is generally determined based on the proportionate share of member gross activity over a specified period of time.

***Value at Risk (VaR) Associated with Risk Management Contracts***

Management uses a risk measurement model, which calculates VaR, to measure AEP's commodity price risk in the risk management portfolio. The VaR is based on the variance-covariance method using historical prices to estimate volatilities and correlations and assumes a 95% confidence level and a one-day holding period. Based on this VaR analysis, as of June 30, 2025, a near term typical change in commodity prices is not expected to materially impact net income, cash flows or financial condition.

Management calculates the VaR for both a trading and non-trading portfolio. The trading portfolio consists primarily of contracts related to energy trading and marketing activities. The non-trading portfolio consists primarily of economic hedges of generation and retail supply activities.

------

The following tables show the end, high, average and low market risk as measured by VaR for the periods indicated:

---

Management back-tests VaR results against performance due to actual price movements. Based on the assumed 95% confidence interval, the performance due to actual price movements would be expected to exceed the VaR at least once every 20 trading days.

As the VaR calculation captures recent price movements, management also performs regular stress testing of the trading portfolio to understand AEP's exposure to extreme price movements. A historical-based method is employed whereby the current trading portfolio is subjected to actual, observed price movements from the last several years in order to ascertain which historical price movements translated into the largest potential MTM loss. Management then researches the underlying positions, price movements and market events that created the most significant exposure and reports the findings to the Risk Executive Committee, Regulated Risk Committee or Competitive Risk Committee as appropriate.

***Interest Rate Risk***

AEP is exposed to interest rate market fluctuations in the normal course of business operations. Prior to 2022, interest rates remained at low levels and the Federal Reserve maintained the federal funds target range at 0.0% to 0.25% for much of 2021. During 2022 and 2023, the Federal Reserve approved 11 rate increases for a total cumulative increase of 5.25%. In light of the progress on inflation and the balance of risks, during 2024, the Federal Reserve authorized three rate decreases for a total cumulative decrease of 1.0%. AEP has outstanding short and long-term debt which is subject to variable rates. AEP manages interest rate risk by limiting variable-rate exposures to a percentage of total debt, by entering into interest rate derivative instruments and by monitoring the effects of market changes on interest rates. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, a 100 basis point change in the benchmark rate on AEP's variable rate debt would impact pretax interest expense annually by $34 million and $25 million, respectively.

***Second Quarter of 2025 Compared to Second Quarter of 2024***

The major components of the decrease in Revenues were as follows:

• **Retail Revenues** increased $24 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $35 million increase in base case and rider revenues.

This increase was partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $7 million decrease in weather-normalized revenues primarily in the residential class.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $4 million decrease in weather-related usage primarily due to a 17% decrease in cooling degree days.

• **Transmission Revenues** decreased $9 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $35 million decrease due to lower peak loads included in the 2025 billing rates.

This decrease was partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $25 million increase in interim rates driven by increased transmission investments.

• **Other Revenues** decreased $23 million primarily due to the maturity of Transition Funding III LLC securitization bonds in December 2024.

Expenses and Other and Income Tax Expense changed between years as follows:

• **Other Operation and Maintenance** expenses increased $25 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $29 million increase in recoverable transmission expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $16 million increase in transmission and distribution-related expenses.

These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $20 million decrease in employee-related expenses due to the voluntary severance program that occurred in the second quarter of 2024.

------

• **Depreciation and Amortization** expenses decreased $18 million primarily due to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $16 million decrease in the amortization of securitized transition assets due to the maturity of Transition Funding III LLC securitization bonds in December 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An $11 million decrease due to the deferral of eligible costs related to HB 5247.

These decreases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $9 million increase due to a higher depreciable base.

• **Interest Expense** increased $1 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An $8 million increase due to higher debt balances and interest rates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $5 million increase due to a decrease in capitalization of AFUDC on prepaid pension and OPEB.

These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $12 million decrease due to the deferral of eligible costs related to HB 5247.

• **Income Tax Expense** decreased $10 million primarily due to an increase in amortization of Excess ADIT.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $12 million increase in weather-related usage primarily due to an 83% increase in heating degree days.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $6 million decrease in weather-normalized revenues primarily in the residential class.

• **Transmission Revenues** increased $8 million due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $42 million increase in interim rates driven by increased transmission investments.

• **Other Revenues** decreased $42 million primarily due to the maturity of Transition Funding III LLC securitization bonds in December 2024.

***Second Quarter of 2025 Compared to Second Quarter of 2024***

The major components of the increase in Transmission Revenues, which consists of wholesale sales to affiliates and nonaffiliates, were as follows:

• **Transmission Revenues** increased $267 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $214 million increase due to the June 2025 FERC order related to the treatment of NOLCs in transmission formula rates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $49 million increase due to continued transmission investment.

------

Expenses and Other, Income Tax Expense and Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest changed between years as follows:

• **Depreciation and Amortization** expenses increased $12 million primarily due to a higher depreciable base.

• **Income Tax Expense** decreased $193 million primarily due to the following:

This decrease was partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $52 million increase due to an increase in pretax book income.

***Second Quarter of 2025 Compared to Second Quarter of 2024***

The major components of the increase in Revenues were as follows:

• **Retail Revenues** increased $20 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $10 million increase in fuel revenues.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $7 million increase in weather-normalized margins primarily in the residential and commercial classes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $7 million increase in rider revenues.

These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $7 million decrease in weather-related usage primarily due to a 22% decrease in cooling degree days.

• **Transmission Revenues** increased $14 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $10 million increase due to continued transmission investment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $6 million increase due to the June 2025 FERC order related to the treatment of NOLCs in transmission formula rates.

Expenses and Other and Income Tax Expense changed between years as follows:

• **Purchased Electricity, Fuel and Other Consumables Used for Electric Generation** expenses decreased $14 million primarily due to the impact to the West Virginia ENEC as a result of the June 2025 FERC NOLC order.

• **Other Operation and Maintenance** expenses increased $5 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $24 million increase in transmission expenses primarily due to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $15 million increase due to the June 2025 FERC NOLC order.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $5 million increase in recoverable expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $5 million increase in vegetation management expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $6 million increase due to recoverable energy assistance program expenses for qualified Virginia customers.

------

These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $23 million decrease in employee-related expenses primarily due to the voluntary severance program that occurred in the second quarter of 2024.

• **Depreciation and Amortization** expenses increased $25 million primarily due to a higher depreciable base.

• **Income Tax Expense** decreased $26 million primarily due to a reduction in Excess ADIT as a result of the June 2025 FERC order related to the treatment of NOLCs in transmission formula rates.

***Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2024***

The major components of the increase in Revenues were as follows:

• **Retail Revenues** increased $107 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $35 million increase in fuel revenues.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $34 million increase in weather-related usage primarily due to a 39% increase in heating degree days, partially offset by a 20% decrease in cooling degree days.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $30 million increase in rider revenues.

• **Transmission Revenues** increased $16 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $12 million increase due to continued transmission investment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $6 million increase due to the June 2025 FERC order related to the treatment of NOLCs in transmission formula rates.

• **Other Revenues** decreased $6 million primarily due to a decrease in sales of renewable energy credits.

Expenses and Other and Income Tax Expense changed between years as follows:

• **Purchased Electricity, Fuel and Other Consumables Used for Electric Generation** expenses decreased $4 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An $18 million decrease due to the prior year amortization of Excess ADIT through the West Virginia ENEC.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $17 million decrease due to the impact to the West Virginia ENEC as a result of the June 2025 FERC NOLC order.

These decreases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $27 million increase in load and purchased power prices as well as an increase in West Virginia ENEC rates resulting in higher amortization of deferred fuel regulatory assets.

**• Other Operation and Maintenance** expenses increased $12 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $27 million increase in transmission expenses primarily due to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $15 million increase due to the June 2025 FERC NOLC order.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $7 million increase in recoverable expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $5 million increase in vegetation management and Virginia storm-related expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $14 million increase due to recoverable energy assistance program expenses for qualified Virginia customers.

These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $25 million decrease in employee-related expenses primarily due to the voluntary severance program that occurred in the second quarter of 2024.

• **Depreciation and Amortization** expenses increased $38 million primarily due to a higher depreciable base.

• **Taxes Other Than Income Taxes** decreased $9 million primarily due to lower business and occupation taxes.

• **Income Tax Expense** remained consistent primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $16 million increase due to an increase in pretax book income.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $13 million increase due to a decrease in amortization of Excess ADIT.

These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $23 million decrease due to a reduction in Excess ADIT primarily due to the June 2025 FERC order related to the treatment of NOLCs in transmission formula rates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $5 million decrease due to an increase in flow-through cost of removal.

***Second Quarter of 2025 Compared to Second Quarter of 2024***

The major components of the increase in Revenues were as follows:

• **Retail Revenues** increased $14 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $24 million increase in weather-normalized revenues primarily in the commercial and industrial classes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An $8 million increase in rider revenues.

These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An $11 million decrease due to lower prices and lower customer participation in OPCo's SSO.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $5 million decrease in weather-related usage driven by a 20% decrease in cooling degree days.

• **Off-system Sales** increased $13 million primarily due to increased sales of OVEC purchased power driven by higher market prices and volume.

• **Other Revenues** decreased $8 million primarily due to lower third-party Legacy Generation Resource Rider revenue related to the recovery of OVEC costs.

Expenses and Other and Income Tax Expense changed between years as follows:

• **Purchased Electricity from AEP Affiliates** expenses decreased $11 million primarily due to decreased recoverable purchases to serve SSO customers.

------

• **Other Operation and Maintenance** expenses decreased $5 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $13 million decrease in employee-related expenses primarily due to the voluntary severance program that occurred in the second quarter of 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $9 million decrease related to recoverable energy assistance program expenses for qualified Ohio customers.

These decreases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An $8 million increase in transmission expenses primarily due to an increase in recoverable PJM expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An $8 million increase in distribution expenses primarily related to recoverable storm restoration costs and recoverable vegetation management expenses.

• **Asset Impairments and Other Related Charges** decreased $53 million primarily due to the Federal EPA's revised CCR rules finalized in 2024.

• **Depreciation and Amortization** expenses decreased $7 million primarily due to capital rider under-recoveries.

• **Taxes Other Than Income Taxes** decreased $17 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $12 million decrease in property taxes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $6 million decrease in state excise taxes due to decreased billed KWhs in 2025.

• **Income Tax Expense** increased $26 million primarily due to an increase in pretax book income.

***Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2024***

The major components of the increase in Revenues were as follows:

• **Retail Revenues** decreased $18 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An $88 million decrease due to lower prices and lower customer participation in OPCo's SSO.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $4 million decrease in weather-normalized revenues primarily in the residential class partially offset by an increase in the commercial class.

These decreases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $57 million increase in rider revenues.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $22 million increase in weather-related usage driven by a 32% increase in heating degree days.

• **Off-system Sales** increased $26 million primarily due to increased sales of OVEC purchased power driven by higher market prices and volume.

• **Transmission Revenues** increased $6 million primarily due to continued transmission investment.

• **Other Revenues** decreased $12 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $7 million decrease in recoverable sales of renewable energy credits.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $5 million decrease due to lower third-party Legacy Generation Resource Rider revenue related to the recovery of OVEC costs.

Expenses and Other and Income Tax Expense changed between years as follows:

• **Purchased Electricity for Resale** expenses decreased $8 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $41 million decrease in recoverable auction purchases primarily due to lower prices.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $12 million decrease in recoverable alternative energy rider expenses.

These decreases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $30 million estimated reduction in regulatory assets for OVEC-related purchased power costs that are no longer probable of future recovery due to recently approved legislation in Ohio.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $17 million increase in recoverable OVEC costs.

• **Purchased Electricity from AEP Affiliates** expenses decreased $41 million primarily due to decreased recoverable purchases to serve SSO customers.

• **Other Operation and Maintenance** expenses increased $27 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $58 million increase in transmission expenses primarily due to an increase in recoverable PJM expenses.

This increase was partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $19 million decrease related to recoverable energy assistance program expenses for qualified Ohio customers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $12 million decrease in employee-related expenses primarily due to the voluntary severance program that occurred in the second quarter of 2024.

• **Asset Impairments and Other Related Charges** decreased $53 million primarily due to the Federal EPA's revised CCR rules finalized in 2024.

• **Depreciation and Amortization** expenses decreased $19 million primarily due to capital rider under-recoveries.

• **Taxes Other Than Income Taxes** decreased $9 million primarily due to lower property taxes.

• **Interest Expense** increased $7 million primarily due to higher debt balances.

• **Income Tax Expense** increased $26 million primarily due to an increase in pretax book income.

***Second Quarter of 2025 Compared to Second Quarter of 2024***

The major components of the increase in Revenues were as follows:

• **Retail Revenues** increased $11 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $36 million increase in base rate and rider revenues.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $12 million increase in weather-normalized margins primarily in the residential class.

These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $20 million decrease in weather-related usage primarily driven by a 25% decrease in cooling degree days.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $20 million decrease in fuel revenue primarily due to lower authorized fuel rates.

• **Transmission Revenues** increased $9 million primarily due to the June 2025 FERC order related to the treatment of NOLCs in transmission formula rates.

• **Other Revenues** decreased $9 million primarily due to revenues from a customer project to enhance transmission resiliency in 2024.

Expenses and Other and Income Tax Benefit changed between years as follows:

• **Purchased Electricity, Fuel and Other Consumables Used for Electric Generation** expenses decreased $8 million primarily due to increased fuel and purchased power costs, and lower authorized fuel rates resulting in lower current amortization of under-recovered deferred fuel regulatory assets.

• **Other Operation and Maintenance** expenses increased $9 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $19 million increase in transmission-related expenses primarily due to the June 2025 FERC NOLC order.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $7 million increase in overhead line maintenance expenses.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $10 million decrease in employee-related expenses primarily due to the voluntary severance program that occurred in the second quarter of 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $9 million decrease in expenses from a customer project to enhance transmission resiliency in 2024.

• **Income Tax Benefit** increased $17 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $13 million increase due to a reduction in Excess ADIT primarily due to the June 2025 FERC order related to the treatment of NOLCs in transmission formula rates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $7 million increase due to an increase in PTCs.

***Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2024***

The major components of the increase in Revenues were as follows:

• **Retail Revenues** increased $21 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $64 million increase in base rate and rider revenues.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An $11 million increase in weather-normalized margins primarily in the residential class partially offset by a decrease in the industrial class.

These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $50 million decrease in fuel revenue primarily due to lower authorized fuel rates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $12 million decrease in weather-related usage primarily driven by a 24% decrease in cooling degree days.

• **Transmission Revenues** increased $12 million primarily due to the June 2025 FERC order related to the treatment of NOLCs in transmission formula rates and continued transmission investment.

• **Other Revenues** decreased $16 million primarily due to revenues from a customer project to enhance transmission resiliency in 2024.

Expenses and Other and Income Tax Benefit changed between years as follows:

• **Purchased Electricity, Fuel and Other Consumables Used for Electric Generation** expenses decreased $28 million primarily due to increased fuel and purchased power costs and lower authorized fuel rates resulting in increased deferred fuel balances.

• **Other Operation and Maintenance** expenses increased $13 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $25 million increase in transmission-related expenses primarily due to the June 2025 FERC NOLC order and SPP expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $10 million increase in overhead line maintenance expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $13 million decrease in expenses from a customer project to enhance transmission resiliency in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $10 million decrease in employee-related expenses primarily due to the voluntary severance program that occurred in the second quarter of 2024.

• **Interest Expense** increased $16 million primarily due to higher long-term debt balances and a prior year deferral of expenses as a result of the IRS PLR received regarding the treatment of stand-alone NOLCs in retail ratemaking.

• **Income Tax Benefit** decreased $35 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $48 million decrease due to a reduction in Excess ADIT regulatory liabilities as a result of the IRS PLR received regarding the treatment of stand-alone NOLCs in retail ratemaking recorded in 2024.

This decrease was partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $13 million increase due to a reduction in Excess ADIT primarily due to the June 2025 FERC order related to the treatment of NOLCs in transmission formula rates.

***Second Quarter of 2025 Compared to Second Quarter of 2024***

The major components of the increase in Revenues were as follows:

• **Retail Revenues** increased $159 million primarily due to a $160 million revenue refund provision recorded in 2024 associated with the Turk Plant and SWEPCo's 2012 Texas Base Rate Case.

• **Transmission Revenues** increased $21 million primarily due to the June 2025 FERC order related to the treatment of NOLCs in transmission formula rates.

Expenses and Other and Income Tax Benefit changed between years as follows:

• **Other Operation and Maintenance** expenses decreased $13 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $16 million decrease in employee-related expenses primarily due to the voluntary severance program that occurred in the second quarter of 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $6 million decrease in distribution-related expenses primarily driven by storm costs in Arkansas.

These decreases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An $8 million increase in transmission-related expenses primarily due to the June 2025 FERC NOLC order.

------

• **Depreciation and Amortization** expenses increased $7 million primarily due to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $9 million increase due to a higher depreciable base.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $4 million increase due to the amortization of the Storm Recovery Funding securitized assets.

These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $4 million decrease due to an increase in regulatory assets related to NOLCs.

• **Income Tax Benefit** increased $14 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $42 million increase due to a reduction in Excess ADIT primarily due to the June 2025 FERC order related to the treatment of NOLCs in transmission formula rates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $5 million increase due to an increase in PTCs.

These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $36 million decrease due to an increase in pretax book income.

***Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2024***

The major components of the increase in Revenues were as follows:

• **Retail Revenues** increased $173 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $160 million increase due to a revenue refund provision recorded in 2024 associated with the Turk Plant and SWEPCo's 2012 Texas Base Rate Case.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $43 million increase in rider revenues.

These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $31 million decrease in weather-normalized margins in all classes.

• **Transmission Revenues** increased $21 million primarily due to the June 2025 FERC order related to the treatment of NOLCs in transmission formula rates.

Expenses and Other and Income Tax Benefit changed between years as follows:

• **Purchased Electricity, Fuel and Other Consumables Used for Electric Generation** expenses increased $5 million primarily due to a current year decrease in amortization of under-recovered fuel regulatory assets.

• **Other Operation and Maintenance** expenses decreased $30 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $16 million decrease in employee-related expenses primarily due to the voluntary severance program that occurred in the second quarter of 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $14 million decrease due to a disallowance recorded on the remaining net book value of the Dolet Hills Power Station as a result of an LPSC approved settlement agreement in April 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $6 million decrease in distribution-related expenses primarily driven by storm costs in Arkansas.

These decreases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $7 million increase in transmission-related expenses primarily due to the June 2025 FERC NOLC order.

• **Depreciation and Amortization** expenses increased $26 million primarily due to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $17 million increase due to a higher depreciable base.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• An $8 million increase due to the amortization of the Storm Recovery Funding securitized assets.

• **Interest Expense** increased $30 million primarily due to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $20 million increase due to a prior year deferral of expenses as a result of the IRS PLR received regarding the treatment of stand-alone NOLCs in retail ratemaking.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $9 million increase associated with Storm Recovery Funding bonds.

• **Income Tax Benefit** decreased $124 million primarily due to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $109 million decrease due to a reduction in Excess ADIT regulatory liabilities as a result of the IRS PLR received regarding the treatment of stand-alone NOLCs in retail ratemaking recorded in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $32 million decrease due to the reversal of a regulatory liability related to the merchant portion of Turk Plant Excess ADIT as a result of the APSC's denial of SWEPCo's request to allow the merchant portion of the Turk Plant to serve Arkansas customers recorded in 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $31 million decrease due to an increase in pretax book income.

These decreases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A $42 million increase due to a reduction in Excess ADIT primarily due to the June 2025 FERC order related to the treatment of NOLCs in transmission formula rates.

**1. <u>SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING MATTERS</u>**

The disclosures in this note apply to all Registrants unless indicated otherwise.

***General***

The unaudited condensed financial statements and footnotes were prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed interim financial statements reflect all normal and recurring accruals and adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the net income, financial position and cash flows for the interim periods for each Registrant. Net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 is not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025. The condensed financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the audited 2024 financial statements and notes thereto, which are included in the 2024 Annual Reports.

***Earnings Per Share (EPS) (Applies to AEP)***

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is calculated by adjusting the weighted-average outstanding common shares, assuming conversion of all potentially dilutive securities. Dilutive securities are primarily related to forward sale of equity agreements and restricted stock units. See Note 13 - Financing Activities for more information regarding the forward sale of equity agreements.

The following table presents AEP's basic and diluted EPS calculations included on the statements of income:

**2. <u>NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS</u>**

The disclosures in this note apply to all Registrants unless indicated otherwise.

Management reviews the FASB's standard-setting process and the SEC's rulemaking activity to determine the relevance, if any, to the Registrants' business. The following standards/rules will impact the Registrants' financial statements.

***SEC Climate Disclosure Rule***

On March 6, 2024, the SEC adopted final rules that require registrants to disclose certain climate-related information in registration statements and annual reports. The final rules require registrants to disclose, among other things, material climate-related risks, activities to mitigate such risks and information about a registrant's board of directors oversight and management's role in managing material climate-related risks. The final rules also require registrants to provide information related to any climate-related targets or goals that are material to a registrant's business, results of operations or financial condition. A majority of the reporting requirements are applicable to the fiscal year beginning in 2025, with the addition of assurance reporting for GHG emissions starting in 2029 for large accelerated filers. Litigation challenging the new rules was filed by multiple parties in multiple jurisdictions, which have been consolidated and assigned to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. On April 4, 2024, the SEC issued an order staying the final climate disclosure rules pending the completion of judicial review at the Court of Appeals. On March 27, 2025, the SEC announced that it voted to end its defense of the final climate disclosure rules. On April 3, 2025, 18 states filed a motion to intervene in the case and to hold the case in abeyance until the SEC takes action to amend or rescind the rules. The Registrants are currently evaluating the status of the rules and the impact of the final rules on their respective consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

***ASU 2023-07 "Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" (ASU 2023-07)***

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, to address investors' observations that there is limited information disclosed about segment expenses and to better understand expense categories and amounts included in segment profit or loss. The new standard requires annual and interim disclosure of (a) the categories and amounts of significant segment expenses (determined by management using both qualitative and quantitative factors) that are regularly provided to the CODM and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, (b) the amounts and a qualitative description of "other segment items", defined as the difference between reported segment revenues less the significant segment expenses and each reported measure of segment profit or loss disclosed, (c) reportable segment profit or loss and assets that are currently only required annually, (d) the CODM's title and position, and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources and (e) a requirement that entities with a single reportable segment provide all disclosures required by ASU 2023-07 and all existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. Additionally, this new standard allows disclosure of one or more additional profit or loss measures if the CODM uses more than one measure provided that at least one of the disclosed measures is determined in a manner "most consistent with the measurement principles under GAAP". If multiple measures are presented, additional disclosure is required about how the CODM uses each measure to assess performance and decide how to allocate resources.

Management adopted ASU 2023-07 and its related implementation guidance effective January 1, 2024 for the annual reporting period and applied the amendments retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the annual consolidated financial statements. The amendments for interim periods were adopted in the fiscal year beginning on January 1, 2025. The adoption of the new standard did not impact the results of operations, statements of financial position or cash flows. See Note 8 - Business Segments for additional information.

***ASU 2023-09 "Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" (ASU 2023-09)***

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, to address investors' suggested enhancements to (a) better understand an entity's exposure to potential changes in jurisdictional tax legislation and the ensuing risks and opportunities, (b) assess income tax information that affects cash flow forecasts and capital allocation decisions and (c) identify potential opportunities to increase future cash flows.

The new standard requires an annual rate reconciliation disclosure of the following categories regardless of materiality: state and local income tax, net of federal income tax effect, foreign tax effects, effect of changes in tax laws or rates enacted in the current period, effect of cross-border tax laws, tax credits, changes in valuation allowances, nontaxable or nondeductible items and changes in unrecognized tax benefits.

------

The new standard also requires an annual disclosure of the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by federal, state and foreign taxes and by individual jurisdictions that are equal to or greater than 5 percent of total income taxes paid. Disclosure of income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (benefit) disaggregated between domestic and foreign jurisdictions and income tax expense (benefit) from continuing operations disaggregated by federal, state and foreign jurisdictions is required.

The new standard removes the requirement to disclose the cumulative amount of each type of temporary difference when a deferred tax liability is not recognized because of the exceptions to comprehensive recognition of deferred taxes related to subsidiaries and corporate joint ventures.

The amendments in the new standard may be applied on either a prospective or retrospective basis for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 with early adoption permitted. Management will adopt the amendments to this standard prospectively beginning with the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.

***ASU 2024-03 "Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures" (ASU 2024-03)***

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, the intent of which is to improve financial reporting and respond to investor input by requiring public business entities to disclose additional information about certain expenses in the notes to financial statements in interim and annual reporting periods. Among other provisions, the new standard requires disclosure of disaggregated amounts for expenses such as employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization included in each expense caption presented on the face of the income statement. Public business entities are required to include certain amounts that are already required to be disclosed under GAAP in the same disclosure as the other disaggregation requirements as well as a qualitative description of any amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively. The new standard also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity's definition of selling expenses. An entity is not precluded from providing additional voluntary disclosures that may provide investors with additional decision-useful information.

The amendments in the new standard are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in the new standard should be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Management is evaluating the new standard and has not yet determined when, or the method by which, the Registrants will adopt its amendments.

**4. <u>RATE MATTERS</u>**

The disclosures in this note apply to all Registrants unless indicated otherwise.

As discussed in the 2024 Annual Report, the Registrants are involved in rate and regulatory proceedings at the FERC and their state commissions. The Rate Matters note within the 2024 Annual Report should be read in conjunction with this report to gain a complete understanding of material rate matters still pending that could impact net income, cash flows and possibly financial condition. The following discusses ratemaking developments in 2025 and updates the 2024 Annual Report.

***Regulated Generating Units (Applies to AEP, PSO and SWEPCo)***

Compliance with extensive environmental regulations requires significant capital investment in environmental monitoring, installation of pollution control equipment, emission fees, disposal costs and permits. Management continuously evaluates cost estimates of complying with these regulations in balance with reliability and other factors, which has resulted in, and in the future may result in, a proposal to retire generating facilities earlier than their currently estimated useful lives.

Management is seeking or will seek regulatory recovery, as necessary, for any net book value remaining when the plants are retired. To the extent the net book value of these generation assets is not deemed recoverable, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

*Regulated Generating Units that have been Retired*

<u>SWEPCo</u>

In March 2023, the Pirkey Plant was retired. As part of the 2020 Louisiana Base Rate Case, the LPSC authorized the recovery of SWEPCo's Louisiana jurisdictional share of the Pirkey Plant, through a separate rider, through 2032. As part of the 2021 Arkansas Base Rate Case, the APSC granted SWEPCo regulatory asset treatment. SWEPCo requested recovery including a weighted average cost of capital carrying charge in its Arkansas base rate case filed in March 2025. In July 2023, Texas ALJs issued a PFD that concluded the decision to retire the Pirkey Plant was prudent. In September 2023, the PUCT rejected the ALJs' July 2023 PFD. In the open meeting, the commissioners expressed their concerns that the analysis in support of SWEPCo's decision to retire the Pirkey Plant was not robust enough and that SWEPCo should have re-evaluated the decision following Winter Storm Uri. The treatment of the cost of recovery of the Pirkey Plant is expected to be addressed in a future rate case. As of June 30, 2025, the Texas jurisdictional share of the net book value of the Pirkey Plant was $76 million. To the extent any portion of the Texas jurisdictional share of the net book value of the Pirkey Plant is not recoverable, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

*Regulated Generating Units to be Retired*

<u>PSO</u>

In 2014, PSO received final approval from the Federal EPA to close Northeastern Plant, Unit 3, in 2026. The plant was originally scheduled to close in 2040. As a result of the early retirement date, PSO revised the useful life of Northeastern Plant, Unit 3, to the projected retirement date of 2026 and the incremental depreciation is being deferred as a regulatory asset. Following the 2024 Oklahoma Base Rate Case, PSO continues to recover Northeastern Plant, Unit 3 through 2040. In April 2025, PSO and the ODEQ finalized a second amended regional haze agreement that would allow continued operation of the Northeastern Plant, Unit 3, on natural gas, through May 31, 2041. This agreement is contingent upon approval by the Federal EPA in the form of a revised SIP. The ODEQ is in the process of preparing a SIP submission for the Federal EPA's review and approval.

<u>SWEPCo</u>

In November 2020, management announced that it will cease using coal at the Welsh Plant in 2028. As a result of the announcement, SWEPCo began recording a regulatory asset for accelerated depreciation. In December 2024, SWEPCo filed an application for a Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN) with the APSC, LPSC and PUCT to convert Welsh Plant, Units 1 and 3 to natural gas in 2028 and 2027, respectively.

------

The table below summarizes the net book value including CWIP, before cost of removal and materials and supplies, as of June 30, 2025, of generating facilities planned for early retirement:

***Dolet Hills Power Station and Related Fuel Operations (Applies to AEP and SWEPCo)***

In December 2021, the Dolet Hills Power Station was retired. While in operation, DHLC provided 100% of the fuel supply to Dolet Hills Power Station. The remaining book value of Dolet Hills Power Station non-fuel related assets are recoverable by SWEPCo through rate riders. As of June 30, 2025, SWEPCo's share of the net investment in the Dolet Hills Power Station was $70 million, including materials and supplies, net of cost of removal collected in rates. Fuel costs incurred by the Dolet Hills Power Station are recoverable by SWEPCo through active fuel clauses and are subject to prudency determinations by the various commissions. After closure of the DHLC mining operations and the Dolet Hills Power Station, additional reclamation and other land-related costs incurred by DHLC and Oxbow will continue to be billed to SWEPCo and included in existing fuel clauses. As of June 30, 2025, SWEPCo had a net under-recovered fuel balance of $26 million, inclusive of costs related to the Dolet Hills Power Station billed by DHLC, but excluding impacts of the February 2021 severe winter weather event.

In March 2021, the LPSC issued an order allowing SWEPCo to recover up to $20 million of fuel costs in 2021 and defer approximately $35 million of additional costs with a recovery period to be determined at a later date. In August 2022, the LPSC staff filed testimony recommending fuel disallowances of up to $55 million, including denial of recovery of the $35 million deferral, with refunds to customers over five years. In February 2024, an ALJ issued a final recommendation which included a proposed $55 million refund to customers and the denial of recovery of the $35 million deferral. SWEPCo filed a motion to present oral arguments with the LPSC to dispute the ALJ's recommendations. In April 2024, the LPSC approved a unanimous settlement agreement filed by SWEPCo, LPSC staff and certain intervenors that resolved the fuel recovery dispute and resulted in a fuel disallowance of $11 million. The remaining $24 million regulatory asset balance will be recovered over three years with interest.

In March 2021, the APSC approved fuel rates that provide recovery of $20 million for the Arkansas share of the 2021 Dolet Hills Power Station fuel costs over five years through the existing fuel clause.

In September 2023, the PUCT approved an unopposed settlement agreement that provides recovery of $48 million of Oxbow mine related costs through 2035.

If any of these costs are not recoverable or customer refunds are required, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***Pirkey Plant and Related Fuel Operations (Applies to AEP and SWEPCo)***

In March 2023, the Pirkey Plant was retired. SWEPCo is recovering, or will seek recovery of, the remaining net book value of Pirkey Plant non-fuel costs. As of June 30, 2025, SWEPCo's share of the net investment in the Pirkey Plant was $204 million, including materials and supplies, net of cost of removal. See the "Regulated Generating Units that have been Retired" section above for additional information. Fuel costs are recovered through active fuel clauses and are subject to prudency determinations by the various commissions. As of March 31, 2023, SWEPCo fuel deliveries, including billings of all fixed costs, from Sabine ceased. Additionally, as of June 30, 2025, SWEPCo had a net under-recovered fuel balance of $26 million, inclusive of costs related to the Pirkey Plant billed by Sabine, but excluding impacts of the February 2021 severe winter weather event. Remaining operational, reclamation and other land-related costs incurred by Sabine will be billed to SWEPCo and included in existing fuel clauses.

In July 2023, the LPSC ordered that a separate proceeding be established to review the prudence of the decision to retire the Pirkey Plant, including the costs included in fuel for years starting in 2019 and after. In April 2025, the LPSC determined the retirement of the Pirkey Plant was reasonable and prudent and authorized continued recovery of and on the remaining balance of the Pirkey Plant at SWEPCo's weighted average cost of capital through 2032.

In September 2023, the PUCT approved an unopposed settlement agreement that provides recovery of $33 million of Sabine related fuel costs through 2035. In June 2024, SWEPCo filed a fuel reconciliation with the PUCT for its retail operation in Texas for the period of January 2022 through December 2023. The fuel reconciliation included approximately $535 million in Texas jurisdictional eligible fuel costs. In January 2025, intervenors filed testimony recommending a disallowance of Texas jurisdictional fuel costs ranging from $2 million to $33 million related to SWEPCo's decision to retire the Pirkey Plant, management of fuel inventory and SWEPCo's energy price offers in SPP. In April 2025, a settlement agreement was filed with the PUCT resolving the issues in the case and resulting in a one-time $6 million disallowance of fuel costs. An order is expected in 2025.

If any of these costs are not recoverable or customer refunds are required, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

**<u>AEP Texas Rate Matters</u> (Applies to AEP and AEP Texas)**

***AEP Texas Interim Transmission and Distribution Rates***

Through June 30, 2025, AEP Texas' cumulative revenues from transmission and distribution interim base rate increases that are subject to review are estimated to be approximately $43 million. A base rate review could result in a refund to customers if AEP Texas incurs a disallowance of the transmission or distribution investment on which an interim increase was based. Management is unable to determine a range of potential losses, if any, that are reasonably possible of occurring. A revenue decrease, including a refund of interim transmission and distribution rates, could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***Texas Legislation***

On June 20, 2025, Texas House Bill 5247 (HB 5247) was signed into law by the Governor of Texas and became effective. The bill establishes a tracking mechanism for qualifying electric utilities to file annual interim rate adjustments for cost recovery of certain transmission and distribution capital expenditures. On June 27, 2025, AEP Texas filed with the PUCT notice of qualification and election to follow the new methodology as permitted by HB 5247. Qualifying electric utilities under HB 5247 consist of utilities that: (a) operate solely in ERCOT, (b) have been identified by the PUCT as having responsibility for constructing transmission infrastructure as part of ERCOT's Permian Basin Reliability Plan and (c) make annual capital expenditures in transmission and distribution that exceed 300% of annual depreciation. Based on those requirements, AEP Texas is a qualifying electric utility and SWEPCo and ETT are not qualifying electric utilities.

The tracking mechanism permits a qualifying electric utility to defer all or a portion of costs associated with its eligible transmission and distribution capital investments, including depreciation expense and carrying costs, as a regulatory asset. The tracking mechanism is available through 2035 and is an alternative to the existing capital tracking mechanisms in Texas. Deferred costs will be recovered through interim rate updates over a period not to exceed 18 months and earn a return until recovered. As a result of the new legislation, AEP Texas deferred approximately $25 million of eligible costs through June 2025 as a regulatory asset. Investments included in the tracking mechanism and the existing capital tracker filings remain subject to prudency review in the utility's next base rate review before the PUCT. If any of these deferred costs are not approved for recovery, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

**<u>APCo and WPCo Rate Matters</u> (Applies to AEP and APCo)**

***ENEC (Expanded Net Energy Cost) Filings***

In January 2024, the WVPSC issued an order resolving APCo's and WPCo's (the Companies) 2021-2023 ENEC cases. In the order, the WVPSC: (a) disallowed $232 million in ENEC under-recovered costs as of February 28, 2023 ($136 million related to APCo) and (b) approved the recovery of $321 million of ENEC under-recovered costs as of February 28, 2023 ($174 million related to APCo) plus a 4% debt carrying charge rate over a ten-year recovery period starting September 1, 2024.

In February 2024, the Companies filed briefs with the West Virginia Supreme Court (WVSC) to initiate an appeal of the January 2024 order. Following arguments that were held in September 2024, the WVSC issued a November 2024 opinion affirming in part and reversing in part the WVPSC's January 2024 ENEC order. The WVSC remanded the ENEC case to the WVPSC to afford the Companies an opportunity to examine, analyze, rebut and refute the calculation of the $232 million disallowance. In March 2025, the WVPSC entered an order in the Companies' 2021-2023 ENEC cases further describing its calculations of the ordered $232 million disallowance. In June 2025, the Companies submitted direct testimony on remand supporting a reduction to the WVPSC's previously-ordered disallowance of at least $179 million. Staff and intervenor testimony is due in August 2025 and a hearing is scheduled for October 2025.

In April 2024, the Companies submitted their 2024 ENEC update case proposing a $58 million annual increase in ENEC rates when compared to existing ENEC rates. The Companies proposed that this ENEC rate change would: (a) become effective September 1, 2024, (b) include a $20 million annual increase in ENEC rates related to the period ending February 29, 2024 and the forecast period September 2024 through August 2025 and (c) include a $38 million annual increase in ENEC rates for the recovery of $321 million of ENEC under-recovered costs as of February 28, 2023 over a ten-year period, plus a 4% debt carrying charge rate. In August 2024, the WVPSC issued an order approving the requested $38 million annual increase effective September 1, 2024. In March 2025, the WVPSC issued an order approving the requested $20 million annual increase effective March 11, 2025.

------

In April 2025, the Companies submitted their 2025 ENEC update filing proposing a $72 million annual increase in ENEC rates. In July 2025, WVPSC staff and intervenors filed testimony, and one intervening party recommended a disallowance of approximately $19 million.

If any ENEC costs are not recoverable or refunds are ordered, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***Virginia Fuel Adjustment Clause (FAC) Review***

In 2023, APCo submitted its annual fuel cost filing with the Virginia SCC. Interim Virginia FAC rates were implemented in November 2023. In APCo's 2022 Virginia fuel update filing, the Virginia SCC ordered the Virginia Staff to commence an audit of APCo's fuel costs for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022. The Virginia staff analyzed APCo's 2019 through 2022 fuel procurement activities and concluded the procurement practices were reasonable and prudent and recommended no disallowances. In May 2024, the Virginia SCC issued an order approving the audit of APCo's 2019 and 2020 fuel costs but concluded that the review of APCo fuel costs for 2021 and 2022 remains open for further evaluation as part of APCo's 2024 fuel cost filing.

In September 2024, APCo submitted its annual Virginia fuel cost filing with the Virginia SCC proposing no change in annual APCo Virginia FAC rates charged to customers. In January 2025, an intervening party recommended a minimum fuel under-recovery disallowance of $20 million related to alleged imprudent operations of Amos and Mountaineer generating units during October 2021 and November 2021. There were no other recommended disallowances by intervenors or Virginia Staff regarding APCo's historical period Virginia fuel under-recovery balance through October 31, 2024. Virginia Staff recommended that the Virginia SCC close APCo's open review periods related to 2021 and 2022 Virginia fuel costs. A hearing was held in February 2025. In March 2025, the Hearing Examiner re-opened the record to obtain additional information to resolve certain issues. In April 2025, APCo and an intervenor submitted supplemental testimony with the intervenor continuing to recommend a $20 million disallowance. A hearing was held in May 2025. In June 2025, the Hearing Examiner issued a report recommending no disallowance. An order is anticipated from the Virginia SCC in the third quarter of 2025.

If any fuel costs are not recoverable or refunds are ordered, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***2024 West Virginia Base Rate Case***

In November 2024, APCo and WPCo (the Companies) filed a request with the WVPSC for a net $251 million annual increase in base rates based upon a proposed 10.8% ROE and a proposed capital structure of 52% debt and 48% common equity. The requested net annual increase in base rates excludes the Companies' proposed $94 million annual Modified Rate Base Cost (MRBC) surcharge update proposed to be effective in a separate proceeding and the existing $21 million annual Mitchell Base Rate Surcharge that are both proposed to be rolled into base rates upon the Companies' anticipated 2025 change in base rates. The Companies' proposed base rate increase includes recovery of approximately $118 million in previously deferred major storm expenses over a three-year period plus a carrying charge on the deferral balance, capital structure changes including an increase in ROE, an increase in depreciation expense related to proposed changes in depreciation rates and increased capital investments and increases in distribution and generation operation and maintenance expenses.

The Companies' November 2024 West Virginia base rate filing also included two sets of alternative frameworks to simplify rates and customer bills and provide predictable future rate increases. The Companies' first framework includes: (a) securitization, (b) approval of a major storm expense recovery and tracking mechanism and (c) freezing of OATT revenues in the ENEC. This framework includes securitization in a concurrent proceeding of approximately $2.4 billion of West Virginia jurisdictional assets. Securitization of those items could reduce the Companies' combined requested increase in annual base rates to $37 million. See the "2025 West Virginia Securitization Filing" section below for additional information.

The Companies also included an alternative ratemaking proposal that includes: (a) a separate surcharge that would allow the Companies up to a 3% annual increase in overall West Virginia rates for four consecutive years on April 1<sup>st</sup> of each year after the implementation of base rates in this case, (b) the elimination of all of the Companies' existing West Virginia jurisdictional surcharges except for the ENEC, with the revenues of these eliminated riders rolled into base rates and (c) the creation of a new West Virginia jurisdictional environmental and new generation surcharge. This alternative proposal would allow the Companies to submit a base rate case filing in advance of and in lieu of the annual April 1st 3% increase and would require the Companies to submit a base rate case filing at the end of the proposed four-year period.

------

In April 2025, a hearing was held at the WVPSC to review the Companies' separate depreciation filing. Also in April 2025, WVPSC staff and intervenors submitted testimony regarding the Companies' base rate filing recommending combined APCo and WPCo base rate increases ranging from $49 million to $91 million based on proposed ROEs ranging from 9.1% to 9.25%. In May 2025, the combined APCo and WPCo base rate increases range was revised to $49 million to $72 million. These base rate recommendations included significant decreases in rate base for the use of a 13-month average rate base rather than a year-end rate base as proposed by the Companies, and also included various reductions to the Companies' proposed ongoing levels of depreciation expense and other operation and maintenance expenses. WVPSC staff recommended that the WVPSC approve the Companies' requested recovery of $118 million of deferred extraordinary storm costs over a five-year period rather than the proposed three-year recovery period, while also recommending that the WVPSC reject the Companies' proposal of a carrying charge on the storm deferral balance if the recovery is more than three years. WVPSC staff and an intervenor also recommended that the WVPSC deny the ratemaking impact of NOLC and reject the Companies' request to continue the MRBC surcharge. In May 2025, the Companies filed rebuttal testimony supporting a net $224 million annual increase in base rates. A hearing was held at the WVPSC in June 2025 and an order is expected in the third quarter of 2025.

For the Companies' first proposed alternative ratemaking framework described above, WVPSC staff and intervenors recommended that the WVPSC: a) consider securitization subject to certain conditions, b) approve the Companies' proposed major storm deferral accounting for major storm other operation and maintenance expenses against the level embedded in the development of base rates, and c) reject the proposed freeze of OATT revenues in the ENEC. WVPSC staff and intervenors generally recommended that the WVPSC reject the Companies' second proposed alternative ratemaking framework described above.

If any costs included in this filing are not approved for recovery, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***West Virginia Modified Rate Base Cost (MRBC) Surcharge Update Filing***

In March 2024, APCo and WPCo (the Companies) submitted an annual MRBC surcharge update filing with the WVPSC requesting a $32 million annual increase in the Companies' combined MRBC rates. The MRBC is an infrastructure investment tracker that allows limited cost recovery related to capital investments between the Companies' West Virginia jurisdictional base rate cases. WVPSC staff and an intervening party recommended revenue requirement disallowances in written and verbal testimony and briefs for certain ratemaking issues used to develop the Companies' proposed MRBC rates, including the West Virginia jurisdictional effect of state deferred income taxes, NOLC and AROs. In July 2025, the WVPSC issued an order stating that a ruling on the Companies' 2024 MRBC surcharge update filing and all contested issues will be included in the August 2025 order on the Companies' 2024 West Virginia base case filing. If any refund liabilities are imposed by the WVPSC, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***2025 West Virginia Securitization Filing***

In March 2025, APCo and WPCo (the Companies) requested to finance, through the issuance of securitization bonds, approximately $2.4 billion of West Virginia jurisdictional undepreciated property balances and regulatory assets including: (a) $321 million of the Companies' remaining combined unrecovered ENEC balance related to costs incurred through February 28, 2023, (b) $1.7 billion of undepreciated West Virginia jurisdictional plant balances as of December 31, 2022 for the Amos, Mitchell and Mountaineer Plants, (c) $237 million of environmental costs previously approved for recovery through a separate West Virginia surcharge and (d) $118 million of West Virginia jurisdictional major storm operation and maintenance costs deferred as of June 2024. The proposed securitized items breakout for the Companies is shown in the table below:

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Proposed Securitized Items** | **APCo** | **WPCo** | **Total** |
| | **(in millions)** | **(in millions)** | **(in millions)** |
| Undepreciated Utility Plant Balances of Amos, Mitchell and Mountaineer (as of December 31, 2022) | $1145.5 | $558.7 | $1704.2 |
| ENEC Under-Recovery Regulatory Assets (as of February 28, 2023) | 174.3 | 146.8 | 321.1 |
| Forecasted Undepreciated CCR and ELG Investments of Amos, Mitchell and Mountaineer (as of November 30, 2024) | 87.6 | 149.2 | 236.8 |
| Deferred Storm O&M Expense Regulatory Assets (as of June 30, 2024) | 115.0 | 2.9 | 117.9 |
| Upfront Financing Costs | 10.1 | 5.7 | 15.8 |
| **Total** | $1532.5 | $863.3 | $2395.8 |

---

------

The Companies also proposed that the WVPSC consider approving the securitization of additional ENEC under-recovered costs, such as those costs approved in the 2024 ENEC case, as well as additional deferred West Virginia jurisdictional major storm operation and maintenance costs, such as those associated with Hurricane Helene and Winter Storms Blair, Harlow and Jett.

In May 2025, WVPSC staff recommended that the $321 million ENEC under-recovery and $118 million storm cost deferral be excluded from the securitization. Staff recommended that the $321 million ENEC under-recovery continue to be recovered through the current ENEC rates and the storm cost deferral be recovered without a carrying charge over five years through base rates to be implemented in August 2025. A hearing was held in July 2025 and an order is expected in the third quarter of 2025.

If any of these costs are not recoverable, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***2025 Virginia Securitization Filing***

In July 2025, APCo filed a request with the Virginia SCC to finance, through the issuance of securitization bonds, approximately $1.4 billion of Virginia jurisdictional undepreciated property balances and a major storm operation and maintenance regulatory asset deferral balance. This proposed securitization included: (a) $1.2 billion of undepreciated Virginia jurisdictional plant balances as of December 31, 2023 for the Amos and Mountaineer Plants and (b) $141 million of Virginia jurisdictional major storm other operation and maintenance expenses deferred during the 2024-2025 biennial period.

**<u>ETT Rate Matters</u> (Applies to AEP)**

***ETT Interim Transmission Rates***

AEP has a 50% equity ownership interest in ETT. Predominantly all of ETT's revenues are based on interim rate changes that can be filed twice annually and are subject to review and possible true-up in the next base rate proceeding. Through June 30, 2025, AEP's share of ETT's cumulative revenues from interim base rate increases that are subject to a prudency review is approximately $1.9 billion. The 2025 ETT base rate case described below could result in a refund to customers if ETT incurs a disallowance of the transmission investment on which an interim increase was based. Management is unable to determine a range of potential losses, if any, that are reasonably possible of occurring. A revenue decrease, including a refund of interim transmission rates, could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***2025 ETT Base Rate Case***

In January 2025, ETT filed a request with the PUCT for a $57 million annual base rate increase over its adjusted test year revenues which includes interim transmission rate updates. ETT's request is based upon a proposed 10.6% ROE with a capital structure of 55% debt and 45% common equity. The rate case seeks a prudence review determination on cumulative capital additions included in interim rates. In April and May 2025, respectively, intervenors and PUCT staff submitted testimony challenging components of the proposed rate increase including up to $37 million related to increased depreciation rates and $32 million related to the proposed ROE and capital structure.

In June 2025, a unanimous and unopposed settlement was filed with the PUCT along with a motion to approve interim rates, equal to the rates specified in the settlement, effective on June 20, 2025. The settlement terms include a base rate increase of approximately $20 million, based on an ROE of 9.6% and a capital structure of 59% debt and 41% equity. The settlement also includes a determination that ETT's invested capital and rate base are prudent and properly included in rates. The motion to approve interim rates was granted in June 2025 and the settlement is subject to approval by the PUCT. If any of the costs in the case are not recoverable or revenues collected under interim transmission rates are ordered to be returned, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

**<u>I&M Rate Matters</u> (Applies to AEP and I&M)**

***2023 Michigan Power Supply Cost Recovery (PSCR) Reconciliation***

In March 2024, I&M submitted its 2023 PSCR Reconciliation to the MPSC. In October 2024, MPSC staff and intervenors submitted testimony recommending PSCR cost disallowances associated with the OVEC Inter-Company Power Agreement (ICPA) and the Rockport UPA with AEGCo ranging from $3 million to $15 million. In July 2025, the MPSC issued an order resulting in a combined $3 million PSCR cost disallowance related to OVEC and Rockport UPA costs. In July 2025, the IURC issued an order on I&M's Resource Adequacy Rider update filing approving I&M's proposed capacity resource adjustments, including prospective recovery of OVEC capacity, energy and associated costs that were previously assigned to I&M Michigan retail customers starting with the June 2025-May 2026 PJM delivery year.

------

***Indiana Earnings Test***

I&M is required by Indiana law to submit an earnings test evaluation for the most recent one-year and five-year periods as part of I&M's semi-annual Indiana FAC filings. These earnings test evaluations require I&M to include a credit in the FAC factor computation for periods in which I&M earned above its authorized return for both the one-year and five-year periods. The credit is determined as 50% of the lower of the one-year or five-year earnings above the authorized level. Management believes its financial statements adequately address the impact of the Indiana earnings test requirements. If future IURC orders require that I&M provide credits in the FAC factor computation, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

In January 2025, I&M submitted its FAC filing and earnings test evaluation for the period ended November 2024. I&M proposed an over-earnings credit to customers for the earnings test period ending November 2024 of $21 million. In April 2025, the IURC issued an order approving the $21 million customer credit.

**<u>KPCo Rate Matters</u> (Applies to AEP)**

***Investigation of the Service, Rates and Facilities of KPCo***

In June 2023, the KPSC issued an order directing KPCo to show cause why it should not be subject to Kentucky statutory remedies, including fines and penalties, for failure to provide adequate service in its service territory. The KPSC's show cause order did not make any determination regarding the adequacy of KPCo's service. In July 2023, KPCo filed a response to the show cause order demonstrating that it has provided adequate service. In December 2023 and February 2024, KPCo and certain intervenors filed testimony with the KPSC. A hearing with the KPSC was previously scheduled to occur in June 2024. The hearing was postponed and has not yet been rescheduled. If any fines or penalties are levied against KPCo relating to the show cause order, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***2023 Kentucky Base Rate and Securitization Case***

In June 2023, KPCo filed a request with the KPSC for a $94 million net annual increase in base rates based upon a proposed 9.9% ROE with the increase to be implemented no earlier than January 2024. In conjunction with its June 2023 filing, KPCo further requested to finance through the issuance of securitization bonds, approximately $471 million of regulatory assets. KPCo's proposal did not address the disposition of its 50% interest in Mitchell Plant, which will be addressed in the future. See "Mitchell Plant Filing for Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity" section below for additional information.

In November 2023, KPCo filed an uncontested settlement agreement with the KPSC, that included an annual base rate increase of $75 million, based upon a 9.75% ROE. Settlement parties agreed that the KPSC should approve KPCo's securitization request, and that the approximately $471 million regulatory assets requested for securitization are comprised of prudently incurred costs.

In January 2024, the KPSC issued an order modifying the November 2023 uncontested settlement agreement and approving an annual base rate increase of $60 million based upon a 9.75% ROE effective with billing cycles mid-January 2024. The order reduced KPCo's base rate revenue requirement by $14 million to allow recovery of actual test year PJM transmission costs instead of KPCo's requested annual level of costs based on PJM 2023 projected transmission revenue requirements. In February 2024, KPCo filed an appeal with the Commonwealth of Kentucky Franklin Circuit Court (Circuit Court), challenging among other aspects of the order, the $14 million base rate revenue requirement reduction. In January 2025, the Circuit Court issued an order agreeing with KPCo's appeal and remanded this issue back to the KPSC with instructions to enter an order, within 30 days, which includes setting rates to allow KPCo to recover the $14 million of annual PJM transmission costs effective upon KPCo's January 2024 implementation of updated base rates. In March 2025, the KPSC issued a rehearing order that approved rates for the prospective collection of test year PJM transmission costs beginning in February 2025 but denied KPCo's request to defer and recover the historical PJM transmission costs of approximately $16 million incurred since January 2024. In April 2025, KPCo filed an appeal with the Circuit Court in response to the KPSC's denial to recover PJM transmission costs incurred from January 2024 through the implementation of new rates. A Circuit Court ruling is expected in the second half of 2025.

In June 2025, KPCo issued $478 million of securitization bonds to recover $500 million of regulatory assets, including $311 million of plant retirement costs, $79 million of deferred storm costs related to 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 major storms, $56 million of under-recovered purchased power rider costs, $51 million of deferred purchased power expenses and $3 million of issuance-related expenses, including KPSC advisor expenses. The net bond proceeds of $478 million also included $6 million for non-utility issuance costs and a $29 million offset for net present value of return on accumulated deferred income taxes related to KPCo's Decommissioning Rider as ordered by the KPSC.

------

***Mitchell Plant Filing for Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity***

KPCo and WPCo each currently hold a 50% ownership interest in the Mitchell Plant and related CCR investments that have been placed in service. In July 2021, the KPSC rejected KPCo's ELG compliance plan for KPCo's 50% ownership share of ELG investments at the Mitchell Plant that would allow KPCo to take capacity and energy to serve customers beyond December 31, 2028. As a result of this order, WPCo holds a 100% interest in Mitchell Plant ELG investments that have been placed in service. In addition, WPCo also holds a greater than 50% ownership share of certain non-ELG capital investments made at Mitchell Plant which will continue to be used in the operation of Mitchell Plant beyond 2028.

In June 2025, KPCo filed a request with the KPSC for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (CPCN) to make investments necessary to reflect: (a) a 50% share of the Mitchell Plant ELG Project and (b) a 50% share of non-ELG capital investments. KPSC approval of these investments would allow KPCo to continue taking a 50% share of energy and capacity from the Mitchell Plant to serve KPCo customers beyond December 31, 2028. KPCo proposed to recover the estimated $78 million investment in the ELG Project through KPCo's existing Environmental Surcharge and plans to request recovery of an estimated $60 million of Mitchell Plant non-ELG capital investments through a future base rate filing.

As of June 30, 2025, the net book value of KPCo's share of the Mitchell Plant, before cost of removal and including CWIP and inventory, was $535 million.

If any costs related to this CPCN filing are disallowed, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

**<u>OPCo Rate Matters</u> (Applies to AEP and OPCo)**

***OVEC Cost Recovery Audits***

In December 2021, as part of OVEC cost recovery audits pending before the PUCO, intervenors filed positions claiming that costs incurred by OPCo during the 2018-2019 audit period were imprudent and should be disallowed. In May 2022, intervenors filed for rehearing on the 2016-2017 OVEC cost recovery audit period claiming the PUCO's April 2022 order to adopt the findings of the audit report were unjust, unlawful and unreasonable for multiple reasons, including the position that OPCo recovered imprudently incurred costs. In May 2023, as part of the OVEC cost recovery audits pending before the PUCO, intervenors filed positions claiming that costs incurred by OPCo during the 2020 audit period were imprudent and should be disallowed.

In August 2024, the PUCO issued orders pertaining to the OVEC cost recovery audits that: (a) denied intervenors' application for rehearing on the 2016-2017 audit period, (b) determined costs incurred by OPCo during the 2018-2019 audit period were prudent, (c) determined costs incurred by OPCo during the 2020 audit period were prudent and (d) recommended no disallowances for any mentioned audit period in question. In September 2024, intervenors filed for rehearing on the 2018-2019 and 2020 OVEC cost recovery audit periods claiming the PUCO's August 2024 orders to adopt the findings of the audit reports were unjust, unlawful and unreasonable for multiple reasons, including the position that OPCo recovered imprudently incurred costs. In October 2024, the PUCO denied the intervenors' applications for rehearing of the 2018-2019 and 2020 audit periods. In December 2024, intervenors filed appeals with the Supreme Court of Ohio on the PUCO's denial for rehearing.

In February and March 2025, as part of OVEC cost recovery audits pending before the PUCO, intervenors filed positions claiming that costs incurred by OPCo during the 2021-2023 audit period were imprudent and should be disallowed. Management disagrees with these claims and is unable to predict the impact of these disputes. If any costs are disallowed or refunds are ordered, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***Ohio Legislation (HB 15)***

Ohio House Bill 15 (HB 15) was approved by the Ohio legislature in April 2025 and signed into law by the Governor of Ohio in May 2025. HB 15 is effective beginning August 14, 2025 and (a) alters rate-setting mechanisms by replacing ESPs with triennial base rate cases based on a three-year forecasted test period, effective with the end of OPCo's previously approved ESP which ends in May 2028, (b) eliminates OPCo's ability to recover from, or refund to, customers the difference between purchased power expenses from OVEC and the market revenues OPCo receives from that purchased power as of the effective date of the law and (c) repeals the statute that permits electric distribution utilities, including OPCo, to execute contracts to provide customer-sited renewable generation service such as fuel cell technology or other renewable resources prospectively.

As a result of this legislation, in the first quarter of 2025, OPCo recorded a $35 million estimated reduction to its OVEC-related purchased power regulatory asset for deferred net costs that are no longer probable of future recovery. Management is unable

------

to predict the future impact to net income, cash flows and financial condition arising from the future changes in OPCo's rate setting mechanisms and the elimination of OPCo's ability to recover from, or refund to, customers the difference between purchased power expenses from OVEC and the market revenues OPCo receives from that purchased power.

***2025 Ohio Base Rate Case***

In May 2025, OPCo filed a request with the PUCO for a net $97 million annual increase in distribution base rates based upon a 10.9% ROE and a proposed capital structure of 49.1% debt and 50.9% common equity. The requested net annual increase in base rates excluded $308 million of existing annual rider revenue requirements (including the Distribution Investment Rider (DIR)) that OPCo proposed to be rolled into base rates upon the anticipated 2026 change in distribution base rates in this filing. The distribution base case filing also requests a revenue cap increase for the DIR and cost cap increase for OPCo's existing Enhanced Service Reliability Rider. If any costs included in this filing are not approved for recovery, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

**<u>PSO Rate Matters</u> (Applies to AEP and PSO)**

***2024 Oklahoma Base Rate Case***

In January 2024, PSO filed a request with the OCC for a $218 million annual base rate increase based upon a 10.8% ROE with a capital structure of 48.9% debt and 51.1% common equity. PSO requested an expanded transmission cost recovery rider and a mechanism to recover generation costs necessary to comply with SPP's 2023 increased capacity planning reserve margin requirements. PSO's request includes the 155 MW Rock Falls Wind Facility and reflects recovery of Northeastern Plant, Unit 3 through 2040.

In October 2024, PSO, the OCC and certain intervenors filed a joint stipulation and settlement agreement with the OCC that included a net annual revenue increase of $120 million based upon a 9.5% ROE with a capital structure of 48.9% debt and 51.1% common equity. The agreement also allows for Rock Falls Wind Facility to be included in base rates and the deferral of certain generation-related costs necessary to comply with SPP's 2023 increased capacity reserve margin requirements. One intervenor opposed the joint stipulation and settlement agreement. In October 2024, a hearing was held at the OCC, and PSO implemented an interim annual base rate increase of $120 million, subject to refund pending a final order by the OCC.

In January 2025, the OCC issued a final order approving the joint stipulation and settlement agreement without modification. In February 2025, an Oklahoma state representative filed an appeal of the final order in PSO's base rate case. The appeal does not contest the reasonableness of the rates established under the joint stipulation and settlement agreement approved without modification in the final order, but rather raises issues related to one OCC commissioner's participation in voting on the order and the sufficiency of an OCC audit. If the appeal is successful and the OCC modifies the final order in a future proceeding, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

**<u>SWEPCo Rate Matters</u> (Applies to AEP and SWEPCo)**

***2020 Texas Base Rate Case***

In October 2020, SWEPCo filed a request with the PUCT for a $105 million annual increase in Texas base rates based upon a proposed 10.35% ROE. The request would move transmission and distribution interim revenues recovered through riders into base rates. Eliminating these riders would result in a net annual requested base rate increase of $90 million primarily due to increased investments. SWEPCo subsequently filed a request with the PUCT lowering the requested annual increase in Texas base rates to $100 million, which would result in an $85 million net annual base rate increase after moving the proposed riders to rate base.

In January 2022, the PUCT issued a final order approving an annual revenue increase of $39 million based upon a 9.25% ROE. The order also includes: (a) rates implemented retroactively back to March 18, 2021, (b) $5 million of the proposed increase related to vegetation management, (c) $2 million annually to establish a storm catastrophe reserve and (d) the creation of a rider to recover the Dolet Hills Power Station as if it were in rate base until its retirement at the end of 2021 and starting in 2022 the remaining net book value to be recovered as a regulatory asset through 2046. As a result of the final order, SWEPCo recorded a disallowance of $12 million in 2021 associated with the lack of return on the Dolet Hills Power Station. In February 2022, SWEPCo filed a motion for rehearing with the PUCT challenging several errors in the order, which include challenges of the approved ROE, the denial of a reasonable return or carrying costs on the Dolet Hills Power Station and the calculation of the Texas jurisdictional share of the storm catastrophe reserve. In April 2022, the PUCT denied the motion for rehearing. In May 2022, SWEPCo filed a petition for review with the Texas District Court seeking judicial review of the several errors challenged in the PUCT's final order.

***February 2021 Severe Winter Weather Impacts in SPP***

In February 2021, severe winter weather had a significant impact in SPP, resulting in significantly increased market prices for natural gas power plants to meet reliability needs for the SPP electric system. For the time period of February 9, 2021 to February 20, 2021, SWEPCo's natural gas expenses and purchases of electricity still to be recovered from customers are shown in the table below:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Jurisdiction** | **June 30, 2025** | **December 31, 2024** | **Approved Recovery Period** | **Approved Carrying Charge** |
| | **(in millions)** | **(in millions)** | | |
| Arkansas | $29.6 | $37.2 | 6 years | (a) |
| Louisiana | 55.9 | 70.6 | (b) | (b) |
| Texas | 58.5 | 72.7 | 5 years | 1.65% |
| **Total** | $144.0 | $180.5 |  |  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)SWEPCo is permitted to record carrying costs on the unrecovered balance of fuel costs at a weighted-cost of capital approved by the APSC. In August 2024, the APSC issued an order that found SWEPCo had prudently incurred these costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)In March 2021, the LPSC approved a special order granting a temporary modification to the FAC and shortly after SWEPCo began recovery of its Louisiana jurisdictional share of these fuel costs based on a five-year recovery period inclusive of an interim carrying charge equal to the prime rate. The special order states the fuel and purchased power costs incurred will be subject to a future LPSC audit.

If SWEPCo is unable to recover any of the costs relating to the extraordinary fuel and purchases of electricity, or obtain authorization of a reasonable carrying charge on these costs, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***2025 Arkansas Base Rate Case***

In March 2025, SWEPCo filed a request with the APSC for a $114 million annual base rate increase based upon a 10.9% ROE with a capital structure of 52.3% debt and 47.7% common equity. The increase includes the Arkansas jurisdictional share of Diversion and Wagon Wheel wind facilities. SWEPCo is also electing to have its rates regulated under a Formula Rate Review mechanism. APSC staff and intervenor testimony is due in August 2025 and a hearing is scheduled for November 2025. If any costs included in this filing are not approved for recovery, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

**<u>PSO and SWEPCo Rate Matters</u> (Applies to AEP, PSO and SWEPCo)**

***North Central Wind Energy Facilities (NCWF)***

The NCWF are subject to various regulatory performance requirements, including a Net Capacity Factor (NCF) guarantee. The NCF guarantee will be measured in MWhs across all facilities on a combined basis for each five year period for the first thirty full years of operation. The first NCF guarantee five year period began in April 2022. Certain wind turbines experienced performance issues that prompted PSO and SWEPCo to file a lawsuit against the manufacturer, which led to an agreement between PSO and SWEPCo and the manufacturer that addressed the performance issues. If regulatory performance requirements, such as the NCF guarantee, are not met, PSO and SWEPCo may recognize a regulatory liability associated with a refund to retail customers. Management is unable to determine a range of potential losses that is reasonably possible of occurring.

**<u>FERC Rate Matters</u>**

***Independence Energy Connection Project (Applies to AEP)***

In 2016, PJM approved the Independence Energy Connection Project (IEC) and included it in its Regional Transmission Expansion Plan to alleviate congestion. Transource Energy has an ownership interest in the IEC, which is located in Maryland and Pennsylvania. In June 2020, the Maryland Public Service Commission (MPSC) approved a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (CPCN) to construct the portion of the IEC in Maryland. In May 2021, the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PAPUC) denied the IEC certificate for siting and construction of the portion in Pennsylvania. Transource Energy appealed the PAPUC ruling in Pennsylvania state court and challenged the ruling before the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania. In May 2022, the Pennsylvania state court issued an order affirming the PAPUC decision as to state law claims. In December 2023, the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania

------

granted summary judgment in favor of Transource Energy, finding that the PAPUC decision violated federal law and the United States Constitution. In January 2024, the PAPUC filed an appeal of the district court's grant of summary judgment with the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, which is currently pending and awaiting decision. Additional regulatory proceedings before the PAPUC are expected to resume in 2025 or 2026. In June 2025, the MPSC gave notice that it extended a temporary extension of the construction commencement deadline until the MPSC can further consider the matter at an administrative meeting.

In September 2021, PJM notified Transource Energy that the IEC was suspended to allow for the regulatory and related appeals process to proceed in an orderly manner without breaching milestone dates in the project agreement. At that time, PJM stated that the IEC has not been canceled and remains necessary to alleviate congestion. PJM continues to evaluate reliability and market efficiency in the area. As of June 30, 2025, AEP's share of IEC capital expenditures was approximately $91 million, located in Total Property, Plant and Equipment - Net on AEP's balance sheets. The FERC has previously granted abandonment benefits for this project, allowing the full recovery of prudently incurred costs if the project is canceled for reasons outside the control of Transource Energy. If any of the IEC costs are not recoverable, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***FERC 2021 PJM and SPP Transmission Formula Rate Challenge (Applies to all Registrant Subsidiaries except AEP Texas)***

The Registrants transitioned to stand-alone treatment of NOLCs in their PJM and SPP transmission formula rates beginning with the 2022 projected transmission revenue requirements and 2021 true-up to actual transmission revenue requirements, and provided notice of this change in informational filings made with the FERC. The annual revenue requirement increase as a result of the transition to stand-alone treatment of NOLCs for transmission formula rates is shown in the table below:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **2021** | **2022** | **2023** | **2024** | **2025** | **Total** |
| **(in millions)** | **(in millions)** | **(in millions)** | **(in millions)** | **(in millions)** | **(in millions)** |
| $78.3 | $68.5 | $60.7 | $52.1 | $48.7 | $308.3 |

---

In January 2024, the FERC issued two orders granting formal challenges by certain unaffiliated customers related to stand-alone treatment of NOLCs in the 2021 Transmission Formula Rates of the AEP transmission owning subsidiaries within PJM and SPP. The FERC directed the AEP transmission owning subsidiaries within PJM and SPP to provide refunds with interest on all amounts collected for the 2021 rate year, and for such refunds to be reflected in the annual update for the next rate year. Accordingly, AEP transmission owning subsidiaries within PJM and SPP are providing refunds for the 2021 rate year, primarily through 2025 projected transmission revenue requirements. AEP transmission owning subsidiaries within PJM and SPP have not been directed to make cash refunds related to 2022 through 2025 rate years. As a result of the January 2024 FERC orders, the Registrants' balance sheets reflected a liability for the probable refund of all NOLC revenues included in transmission formula rates, with interest.

In February 2024, AEPSC on behalf of the AEP transmission owning subsidiaries within PJM and SPP filed requests for rehearing. In March 2024, the FERC denied AEPSC's requests for rehearing of the January 2024 orders by operation of law and stated it may address the requests for rehearing in future orders. In March 2024, AEPSC submitted refund compliance reports to the FERC, which preserve the non-finality of the FERC's January 2024 orders pending further proceedings on rehearing and appeal. In April 2024, AEPSC made filings with the FERC which requested that the FERC: (a) reopen the record so that the FERC may take the IRS PLRs received in April 2024 regarding the treatment of stand-alone NOLCs in ratemaking into evidence and consider them in substantive orders on rehearing and (b) stay its January 2024 orders and related compliance filings and refunds to provide time for consideration of the April 2024 IRS PLRs. In May 2024, AEPSC filed a petition for review with the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit seeking review of the FERC's January 2024 and March 2024 decisions. In July 2024, the FERC issued orders approving AEPSC's request to reopen the record for the limited purpose of accepting into the record the IRS PLRs and establish additional briefing procedures. In August 2024, AEPSC filed briefs with the FERC requesting the commission modify or overturn its initial orders.

In June 2025, the FERC issued two orders, partially reversing its January 2024 decisions on the basis of IRS PLRs accepted into the record, and concluding that the accelerated depreciation-related NOLC adjustments should be included in rate base and should also be included in the computation of Excess ADIT regulatory liabilities to be refunded to customers. The FERC directed the AEP transmission owning subsidiaries within PJM and SPP to submit compliance filings in August 2025 that will revise March 2024 refund compliance reports and permit the collection of excess refunds provided to customers, with interest, in the annual update for the 2025 rate year.

------

As a result of the June 2025 FERC orders, the Registrants recognized revenues, with interest, attributable to accelerated depreciation-related NOLCs included in transmission formula rates for years 2021 through 2025 and reduced Excess ADIT regulatory liabilities. Increases in affiliated transmission expense, which correspond to affiliated transmission revenues recognized, were deferred as an increase to regulatory assets or a reduction to regulatory liabilities on the balance sheets where management expects that expense would be collected from retail customers through authorized retail jurisdiction rider mechanisms. The table below summarizes the impact to the statements of income recorded by the Registrants in the second quarter of 2025:

***Request to Update SWEPCo Generation Depreciation Rates (Applies to AEP and SWEPCo)***

In October 2023, SWEPCo filed an application to revise its generation wholesale customer's contracts to reflect an increase in the annual revenue requirement of approximately $5 million for updated depreciation rates and allow for the return on and of FERC customers jurisdictional share of regulatory assets associated with retired plants. In November 2023, certain intervenors filed a motion with the FERC protesting and recommending the rejection of SWEPCo's filings. In December 2023, the FERC issued an order approving the proposed rates effective January 1, 2024, subject to further review and refund and established hearing and settlement proceedings. If SWEPCo is unable to recover the remaining regulatory assets associated with retired plants, or refunds of revenues collected under interim rates are ordered to be returned, it could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***Transmission Agreement Cost Allocation Complaint (Applies to AEP, APCo, I&M and OPCo)***

In March 2025, the KPSC and the Attorney General of Kentucky filed a complaint at the FERC against AEPSC and the AEP East Companies challenging the manner in which costs are allocated for local transmission projects pursuant to the TA. The complaint contends that certain costs allocated to KPCo are unjust, unreasonable and provide no benefit to KPCo customers. The relief requested in the complaint includes requiring a revision to the TA so that the costs for local transmission projects remain exclusively with the retail distribution service territory where the project is located unless a specific project is granted approval to establish a different cost allocation by the state commissions. Various parties have filed comments and motions to intervene. In May 2025, AEP filed a motion to dismiss and answered the complaint. If the FERC orders a change in the way costs are allocated pursuant to the TA it could impact future net income, cash flows and financial condition.

**5. <u>COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES AND CONTINGENCIES</u>**

The disclosures in this note apply to all Registrants unless indicated otherwise.

The Registrants are subject to certain claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In addition, the Registrants' business activities are subject to extensive governmental regulation related to public health and the environment. The ultimate outcome of such pending or potential litigation against the Registrants cannot be predicted. Management accrues contingent liabilities only when management concludes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. When management determines that it is not probable, but rather reasonably possible that a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements, management discloses such contingencies and the possible loss or range of loss if such estimate can be made. Any estimated range is based on currently available information and involves elements of judgment and significant uncertainties. Any estimated range of possible loss may not represent the maximum possible loss exposure. Circumstances change over time and actual results may vary significantly from estimates.

For current proceedings not specifically discussed below, management does not anticipate that the liabilities, if any, arising from such proceedings would have a material effect on the financial statements. The Commitments, Guarantees and Contingencies note within the 2024 Annual Report should be read in conjunction with this report.

**GUARANTEES**

Liabilities for guarantees are recorded in accordance with the accounting guidance for "Guarantees." There is no collateral held in relation to any guarantees. In the event any guarantee is drawn, there is no recourse to third-parties unless specified below.

***Letters of Credit (Applies to AEP)***

Standby letters of credit are entered into with third-parties. These letters of credit are issued in the ordinary course of business and cover items such as natural gas and electricity risk management contracts, construction contracts, insurance programs, security deposits and debt service reserves.

AEP has $5 billion and $1 billion revolving credit facilities due in March 2029 and March 2027, respectively. AEP may issue up to $1.2 billion as letters of credit under these revolving credit facilities on behalf of subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2025, no letters of credit were issued under either revolving credit facility.

An uncommitted facility gives the issuer of the facility the right to accept or decline each request made under the facility. AEP issues letters of credit on behalf of subsidiaries under six uncommitted facilities totaling $450 million. The Registrants' maximum future payments for letters of credit issued under the uncommitted facilities as of June 30, 2025 were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Company** | **Amount** | **Maturity** |
| | **(in millions)** | |
| AEP | $360.8 | July 2025 to July 2026 |

---

***Indemnifications and Other Guarantees***

*Contracts*

The Registrants enter into certain types of contracts which require indemnifications. Typically these contracts include, but are not limited to, sale agreements, lease agreements, purchase agreements and financing agreements. Generally, these agreements may include, but are not limited to, indemnifications around certain tax, contractual and environmental matters. With respect to sale agreements, exposure generally does not exceed the sale price. As of June 30, 2025, there were no material liabilities recorded for any indemnifications.

AEPSC conducts power purchase-and-sale activity on behalf of APCo, I&M, KPCo and WPCo, who are jointly and severally liable for activity conducted on their behalf. AEPSC also conducts power purchase-and-sale activity on behalf of PSO and SWEPCo, who are jointly and severally liable for activity conducted on their behalf.

------

***Master Lease Agreements (Applies to all Registrants except AEPTCo)***

The Registrants lease certain equipment under master lease agreements. Under the lease agreements, the lessor is guaranteed a residual value up to a stated percentage of the equipment cost at the end of the lease term. If the actual fair value of the leased equipment is below the guaranteed residual value at the end of the lease term, the Registrants are committed to pay the difference between the actual fair value and the residual value guarantee. Historically, at the end of the lease term the fair value has been in excess of the amount guaranteed. As of June 30, 2025, the maximum potential loss by the Registrants for these lease agreements assuming the fair value of the equipment is zero at the end of the lease term was as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Company** | **Maximum<br>Potential Loss** |
| | **(in millions)** |
| AEP | $38.4 |
| AEP Texas | 8.3 |
| APCo | 5.2 |
| I&M | 3.9 |
| OPCo | 6.5 |
| PSO | 3.5 |
| SWEPCo | 4.3 |

**ENVIRONMENTAL CONTINGENCIES (Applies to all Registrants except AEPTCo)**

***Federal EPA's Revised CCR Rule***

In April 2024, the Federal EPA finalized revisions to the CCR Rule (Legacy CCR Rule) to expand the scope of the rule to include inactive impoundments at inactive facilities (legacy CCR surface impoundments) as well as to establish requirements for currently exempt solid waste management units that involve the direct placement of CCR on the land (CCR management units). The Federal EPA is requiring that owners and operators of legacy surface impoundments comply with all of the Legacy CCR Rule requirements applicable to inactive CCR surface impoundments at active facilities, except for the location restrictions and liner design criteria. The rule establishes compliance deadlines for legacy surface impoundments to meet regulatory requirements, including a requirement to initiate closure within five years after the effective date of the final rule. The rule requires evaluations to be completed at both active facilities and inactive facilities with one or more legacy surface impoundments. Closure may be accomplished by applying an impermeable cover system over the CCR material (closure in place) or the CCR material may be excavated and placed in a compliant landfill (closure by removal). Groundwater monitoring and other analysis over the next three years will provide additional information on the planned closure method. In the second quarter of 2024, AEP evaluated the applicability of the rule to current and former plant sites and recorded a $674 million increase in ARO, based on initial cost estimates primarily reflecting compliance with the rule through closure in place and future groundwater monitoring requirements pursuant to the Legacy CCR Rule.

As further groundwater monitoring and other analysis is performed, management expects to refine the assumptions and underlying cost estimates used in recording the ARO. These refinements may include, but are not limited to, changes in the expected method of closure, changes in estimated quantities of CCR at each site, the identification of new CCR management units, among other items. These future changes could have a material impact on the ARO and materially reduce future net income and cash flows and further impact financial condition.

AEP will seek cost recovery through regulated rates, including proposal of new regulatory mechanisms for cost recovery where existing mechanisms are not applicable. The rule could have an additional, material adverse impact on net income, cash flows and financial condition if AEP cannot ultimately recover these additional costs of compliance. Several parties, including AEP and one of its trade associations, have filed petitions for review of the Legacy CCR Rule with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. One of the parties also filed a motion to stay the Legacy CCR Rule pending the outcome of the litigation. In November 2024, the court denied the stay motion. The litigation is being held in abeyance until August 11, 2025. The Federal EPA informed the court that it has determined it will reconsider the Legacy CCR Rule in whole or in part, but has not yet decided the full scope of reconsideration. The Federal EPA expects to have determined which aspects of the Legacy CCR Rule it will reconsider, in whole or in part, by August 11, 2025. Reconsideration of the rule will require a new round of notice-and-comment rulemaking. In July 2025, the Federal EPA issued a direct final rule and companion proposed rule that extended certain compliance deadlines for CCR management units under the Legacy CCR Rule. Management cannot predict the outcome of the litigation or any further actions by the Federal EPA related to the rule.

***The Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (Superfund) and State Remediation***

By-products from the generation of electricity include materials such as ash, slag, sludge, low-level radioactive waste and SNF. Coal combustion by-products, which constitute the overwhelming percentage of these materials, are typically treated and deposited in captive disposal facilities or are beneficially utilized. In addition, the generation plants and transmission and distribution facilities have used asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls and other hazardous and non-hazardous materials. The Registrants currently incur costs to dispose of these substances safely. For remediation processes not specifically discussed, management does not anticipate that the liabilities, if any, arising from such remediation processes would have a material effect on the financial statements.

**NUCLEAR CONTINGENCIES (Applies to AEP and I&M)**

I&M owns and operates the Cook Plant under licenses granted by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. I&M has a significant future financial commitment to dispose of SNF and to safely decommission and decontaminate the plant. The licenses to operate the two nuclear units at the Cook Plant expire in 2034 and 2037. Management has started the application process for license extensions for both units that would extend Unit 1 and Unit 2 to 2054 and 2057, respectively. The operation of a nuclear facility also involves special risks, potential liabilities and specific regulatory and safety requirements. By agreement, I&M is partially liable, together with all other electric utility companies that own nuclear generation units, for a nuclear power plant incident at any nuclear plant in the U.S. Should a nuclear incident occur at any nuclear power plant in the U.S., the resultant liability could be substantial.

**OPERATIONAL CONTINGENCIES**

***Insurance and Potential Losses***

The Registrants maintain insurance coverage normal and customary for electric utilities, subject to various deductibles. The Registrants also maintain property and casualty insurance that may cover certain physical damage or third-party injuries caused by cybersecurity incidents. Insurance coverage includes all risks of physical loss or damage to nonnuclear assets, subject to insurance policy conditions and exclusions. Covered property generally includes power plants, substations, facilities and inventories. Excluded property generally includes transmission and distribution lines, poles and towers. The insurance programs also generally provide coverage against loss arising from certain claims made by third-parties and are in excess of retentions absorbed by the Registrants. Coverage is generally provided by a combination of the protected cell of EIS and/or various industry mutual and/or commercial insurance carriers.

Some potential losses or liabilities may not be insurable or the amount of insurance carried may not be sufficient to meet potential losses and liabilities, including, but not limited to, liabilities relating to a cybersecurity incident, extreme weather, wildfire related liabilities or damage to the Cook Plant and costs of replacement power in the event of an incident at the Cook Plant. Future losses or liabilities, if they occur, which are not completely insured, unless recovered through the ratemaking process, could reduce future net income and cash flows and impact financial condition.

***Claims for Indemnification Made by Owners of the Gavin Power Station (Applies to AEP)***

In November 2022, the Federal EPA issued a final decision denying Gavin Power LLC's requested extension to allow a CCR surface impoundment at the Gavin Power Station to continue to receive CCR and non-CCR waste streams after April 11, 2021 until May 4, 2023 (the Gavin Denial). As part of the Gavin Denial, the Federal EPA made several assertions related to the CCR Rule (see "Environmental Issues - CCR Rule" section of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for additional information), including an assertion that the closure of the 300 acre unlined fly ash reservoir (FAR) is noncompliant with the CCR Rule in multiple respects. The Gavin Power Station was formerly owned and operated by AEP and was sold to Gavin Power LLC and Lightstone Generation LLC in 2017. Pursuant to the PSA, AEP maintained responsibility to complete closure of the FAR in accordance with the closure plan approved by the Ohio EPA which was completed in July 2021. The PSA contains indemnification provisions, pursuant to which the owners of the Gavin Power Station have notified AEP they believe they are entitled to indemnification for any damages that may result from these claims, including any future enforcement or litigation resulting from any determinations of noncompliance by the Federal EPA with various aspects of the CCR Rule consistent with the Gavin Denial. The owners of the Gavin Power Station have also sought indemnification for landowner claims for property damage allegedly caused by modifications to the FAR. Management does not believe that the owners of the Gavin Power Station have any valid claim for indemnity or otherwise against AEP under the PSA. In January 2024, Gavin Power LLC also filed a complaint with the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio, alleging various violations of the Administrative Procedure Act and asserting that the Federal EPA, through its prior inaction, has waived and is estopped from raising certain objections raised in the Gavin Denial. Based on the information currently available, management does not believe a loss is probable and cannot determine a range of potential losses, if any, that is reasonably possible of occurring.

**6. <u>ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS</u>**

The disclosures in this note apply to AEP unless indicated otherwise.

**ACQUISITIONS**

***Green Country Power Plant, Pixley Solar Energy Facility and Flat Ridge IV Wind Energy Facility (Vertically Integrated Utilities Segment) (Applies to AEP and PSO)***

In the second quarter of 2025, PSO expanded its generation portfolio by acquiring three electric generation facilities for a total of $1.4 billion. In May 2025, PSO acquired 100% of the equity interests in Pixley Solar Energy, LLC, the owner of the newly constructed Pixley solar energy facility in Barber County, Kansas. The Pixley facility, placed in service in May 2025, serves both FERC and retail customers in Oklahoma. PSO's revenue requirement is recoverable through an authorized rider until it is incorporated into base rates. Regulatory approval of Pixley's output in retail rates included capital cost, performance and other guarantees, which may subject PSO to future regulatory liabilities. In June 2025, PSO also acquired 100% of the equity interests in Flat Ridge IV Wind, LLC, the owner of the newly constructed Flat Ridge IV Wind Energy Facility located in Kingman and Harper Counties, Kansas. This facility, also placed in service in June 2025, serves both FERC and retail customers under similar recovery and regulatory provisions as the Pixley facility. The acquisitions of Pixley and Flat Ridge IV also resulted in the recognition of operating leases for easement and access rights to the land on which the facilities are located, as well as the associated AROs. In accordance with the guidance for "Business Combinations," management determined the acquisitions of Pixley and Flat Ridge IV represent asset acquisitions.

Additionally, in June 2025, PSO completed the acquisition of 100% of the equity interests in Green Country Energy, LLC, the owner of a combined-cycle natural gas facility located in Jenks, Oklahoma, following approvals from both the FERC and the OCC. The transaction included the acquisition of a previously executed capacity sales agreement between Green Country Energy, LLC, as seller, and SWEPCo, as purchaser. As a result, beginning in July 2025, PSO will sell a portion of the Green Country's capacity to SWEPCo through May 2027, the end of the agreement's term. The acquisition also resulted in the extinguishment of a previously executed capacity sales agreement between Green Country Energy, LLC, as seller, and PSO, as purchaser.

In accordance with the guidance for "Business Combinations," management determined the acquisition of Green Country represents an asset acquisition. Asset acquisitions are accounted for using a cost accumulation model, with the cost of the acquisition allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on their relative fair value. Upon closing of the transaction, PSO recognized Property, Plant and Equipment of $819 million, an intangible liability of $41 million for the fair value of the acquired SWEPCo capacity sales agreement and a regulatory liability of $50 million, reflective of the recognition and subsequent deferral of the gain from PSO's extinguished capacity sales agreement. The liabilities recognized for the capacity sales agreements will reduce PSO's revenue requirement to recover its overall investment in Green Country, which is recoverable through a rider authorized by the OCC until it is included in base rates for the depreciable life of the facility. AEP management elected the income approach for its nonrecurring valuation of both the intangible liability and regulatory liability. Specifically, management applied a discounted cash flow model based on a forward market price assumption.

The table below summarizes the impact of the acquisitions on PSO's balance sheet as of June 30, 2025:

**DISPOSITIONS**

***Noncontrolling Interest in OHTCo and IMTCo (AEP Transmission Holdco Segment) (Applies to AEP and AEPTCo)***

In January 2025, AEP announced a partnership whereby nonaffiliated entities will acquire a 19.9% noncontrolling interest in OHTCo and IMTCo. The partnership was structured pursuant to a contribution agreement between AEPTCo, along with Midwest Transmission Holding Company LLC ("Midwest Transmission"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of AEPTCo that owns all the stock of OHTCo and IMTCo, and Olympus BidCo L.P. ("the Investor"), a special purpose entity controlled by (i) investment funds managed by or affiliated with Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. and (ii) Public Sector Pension Investment Board, whereby the Investor agreed to acquire a 19.9% noncontrolling equity interest in Midwest Transmission for $2.82 billion. The transaction closed in June 2025. AEP received cash proceeds of approximately $2.78 billion, net of transaction costs. Net proceeds will be used to help finance AEP's $54 billion capital plan for 2025-2029, announced in November 2024, driven by transmission and distribution infrastructure upgrades and new generation to support anticipated load growth.

***Disposition of NMRD (Generation & Marketing Segment) (Applies to AEP)***

In December 2023, AEP and the joint owner signed an agreement to sell NMRD to a nonaffiliated third party and the sale was completed in February 2024. AEP received cash proceeds of approximately $107 million, net of taxes and transaction costs. The transaction did not have a material impact on net income or financial condition.

**8. <u>BUSINESS SEGMENTS</u>**

The disclosures in this note apply to all Registrants unless indicated otherwise.

***AEP's Reportable Segments***

AEP's primary business is the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity. Within its Vertically Integrated Utilities segment, AEP centrally dispatches generation assets and manages its overall utility operations on an integrated basis because of the substantial impact of cost-based rates and regulatory oversight applicable to each public utility subsidiary. Intersegment sales and transfers are generally based on underlying contractual arrangements and agreements.

AEP's reportable segments and their related business activities are outlined below:

**Vertically Integrated Utilities**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Generation, transmission and distribution of electricity for sale to retail and wholesale customers through assets owned and operated by AEGCo, APCo, I&M, KGPCo, KPCo, PSO, SWEPCo and WPCo.

**Transmission and Distribution Utilities**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Transmission and distribution of electricity for sale to retail and wholesale customers through assets owned and operated by AEP Texas and OPCo.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• OPCo purchases energy and capacity to serve standard service offer customers and provides transmission and distribution services for all connected load.

**AEP Transmission Holdco**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Development, construction and operation of transmission facilities through investments in AEPTCo. These investments have FERC-approved ROEs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Development, construction and operation of transmission facilities through investments in AEP's transmission-only joint ventures. These investments have PUCT-approved or FERC-approved ROEs.

**Generation & Marketing**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Marketing, risk management and retail activities in ERCOT, MISO, PJM and SPP.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Competitive generation in PJM.

The remainder of AEP's activities are presented as Corporate and Other. While not considered a reportable segment, Corporate and Other primarily includes the purchasing of receivables from certain AEP utility subsidiaries, Parent's guarantee revenue received from affiliates, investment income, interest income and interest expense, income tax expense and other nonallocated costs.

The CODM of AEP is the President and CEO of AEP, who makes operating decisions, allocates resources to and assesses performance based on these reportable segments. The CODM uses earnings (loss) attributable to AEP common shareholders (presented on a GAAP basis) as a measure of segment profit or loss in making these decisions. Earnings (loss) attributable to AEP common shareholders includes intercompany revenues and expenses that are eliminated on the consolidated financial statements.

------

The tables below represent AEP's reportable segment income statement information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 and reportable segment balance sheet information as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The significant expenses disclosed below align with the segment-level information that is regularly provided to the CODM.

***Registrant Subsidiaries' Reportable Segments (Applies to all Registrant Subsidiaries except AEPTCo)***

The Registrant Subsidiaries each have one reportable segment, an integrated electricity generation, transmission and distribution business for APCo, I&M, PSO and SWEPCo, and an integrated electricity transmission and distribution business for AEP Texas and OPCo. Other activities are insignificant. The Registrant Subsidiaries' operations are managed on an integrated basis because of the substantial impact of cost-based rates and regulatory oversight on the business process, cost structures and operating results. The CODM of each Registrant Subsidiary is the AEP President and CEO, who makes operating decisions, allocates resources to and assesses performance based on these reportable segments. The CODM uses net income (loss) that is reported on the Registrant Subsidiaries' statements of income as a measure of segment profit or loss in making these decisions. Net income (loss) includes intercompany revenues and expenses that are eliminated on the consolidated financial statements. The expenses disclosed on the Registrant Subsidiaries' statements of income align with the segment-level significant expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM. Total Assets is reported on the consolidated financial statements.

***AEPTCo's Reportable Segments***

AEPTCo Parent is the holding company of seven FERC-regulated transmission-only electric utilities. The seven State Transcos have been identified as operating segments of AEPTCo under the accounting guidance for "Segment Reporting." The State Transcos business consists of developing, constructing and operating transmission facilities at the request of the RTOs in which they operate and in replacing and upgrading facilities, assets and components of the existing AEP transmission system as needed to maintain reliability standards and provide service to AEP's wholesale and retail customers. The State Transcos are regulated for ratemaking purposes exclusively by the FERC and earn revenues through tariff rates charged for the use of their electric transmission systems.

The CODM of AEPTCo is the AEP President and CEO, who makes operating decisions, allocates resources to and assesses performance based on these operating segments. The CODM uses earnings (loss) attributable to AEPTCo common shareholders (presented on a GAAP basis) as a measure of segment profit or loss in making these decisions. Earnings (loss) attributable to AEPTCo common shareholders includes intercompany revenues and expenses that are eliminated on the consolidated financial statements. The State Transcos operating segments all have similar economic characteristics and meet all of the criteria under the accounting guidance for "Segment Reporting" to be aggregated into one reportable segment. As a result, AEPTCo has one reportable segment. The remainder of AEPTCo's activity is presented in AEPTCo Parent. While not considered a reportable segment, AEPTCo Parent represents the activity of the holding company which primarily relates to debt financing activity and general corporate activities.

------

The tables below present AEPTCo's reportable segment income statement information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 and reportable segment balance sheet information as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The significant expenses disclosed below align with the segment-level information that is regularly provided to the CODM.

**9. <u>DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING</u>**

The disclosures in this note apply to all Registrants unless indicated otherwise. For the periods presented, AEPTCo did not have any derivative and hedging activity.

**OBJECTIVES FOR UTILIZATION OF DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS**

AEPSC is agent for and transacts on behalf of certain AEP subsidiaries, including the Registrant Subsidiaries. AEPEP is agent for and transacts on behalf of other AEP subsidiaries.

The Registrants are exposed to certain market risks as major power producers and participants in the electricity, capacity, natural gas, coal and emission allowance markets. These risks include commodity price risks which may be subject to capacity risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. These risks represent the risk of loss that may impact the Registrants due to changes in the underlying market prices or rates. Management utilizes derivative instruments to manage these risks.

**STRATEGIES FOR UTILIZATION OF DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS TO ACHIEVE OBJECTIVES**

***Risk Management Strategies***

The strategy surrounding the use of derivative instruments primarily focuses on managing risk exposures, future cash flows and creating value utilizing both economic and formal hedging strategies. The risk management strategies also include the use of derivative instruments for trading purposes which focus on seizing market opportunities to create value driven by expected changes in the market prices of the commodities. To accomplish these objectives, the Registrants primarily employ risk management contracts including physical and financial forward purchase-and-sale contracts and, to a lesser extent, OTC swaps and options. Not all risk management contracts meet the definition of a derivative under the accounting guidance for "Derivatives and Hedging." Derivative risk management contracts elected normal under the normal purchases and normal sales scope exception are not subject to the requirements of this accounting guidance.

The Registrants utilize power, capacity, coal, natural gas, interest rate and, to a lesser extent, heating oil, gasoline and other commodity contracts to manage the risk associated with the energy business. The Registrants utilize interest rate derivative contracts in order to manage the interest rate exposure associated with the commodity portfolio. For disclosure purposes, such risks are grouped as "Commodity," as these risks are related to energy risk management activities. The Registrants also utilize derivative contracts to manage interest rate risk associated with debt financing. For disclosure purposes, these risks are grouped as "Interest Rate." The amount of risk taken is determined by the Commercial Operations, Energy Supply and Finance groups in accordance with established risk management policies as approved by the Finance Committee of the AEP Board.

The following table represents the gross notional volume of the Registrants' outstanding derivative contracts:

***Fair Value Hedging Strategies (Applies to AEP)***

Parent enters into interest rate derivative transactions as part of an overall strategy to manage the mix of fixed-rate and floating-rate debt. Certain interest rate derivative transactions effectively modify exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of fixed-rate debt to a floating-rate. Provided specific criteria are met, these interest rate derivatives may be designated as fair value hedges.

***Cash Flow Hedging Strategies***

The Registrants utilize cash flow hedges on certain derivative transactions for the purchase and sale of power ("Commodity") in order to manage the variable price risk related to forecasted purchases and sales. Management monitors the potential impacts of commodity price changes and, where appropriate, enters into derivative transactions to protect profit margins for a portion of future electricity sales and purchases. The Registrants do not hedge all commodity price risk.

The Registrants utilize a variety of interest rate derivative transactions in order to manage interest rate risk exposure. The Registrants also utilize interest rate derivative contracts to manage interest rate exposure related to future borrowings of fixed-rate debt. The Registrants do not hedge all interest rate exposure.

**ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND THE IMPACT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

The accounting guidance for "Derivatives and Hedging" requires recognition of all qualifying derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheets at fair value. The fair values of derivative instruments accounted for using MTM accounting or hedge accounting are based on exchange prices and broker quotes. If a quoted market price is not available, the estimate of fair value is based on the best information available including valuation models that estimate future energy prices based on existing market and broker quotes and other assumptions. In order to determine the relevant fair values of the derivative instruments, the Registrants apply valuation adjustments for discounting, liquidity and credit quality.

Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will fail to perform on the contract or fail to pay amounts due. Liquidity risk represents the risk that imperfections in the market will cause the price to vary from estimated fair value based upon prevailing market supply and demand conditions. Since energy markets are imperfect and volatile, there are inherent risks related to the underlying assumptions in models used to fair value risk management contracts. Unforeseen events may cause reasonable price curves to differ from actual price curves throughout a contract's term and at the time a contract settles. Consequently, there could be significant adverse or favorable effects on future net income and cash flows if market prices are not consistent with management's estimates of current market consensus for forward prices in the current period. This is particularly true for longer term contracts. Cash flows may vary based on market conditions, margin requirements and the timing of settlement of risk management contracts.

According to the accounting guidance for "Derivatives and Hedging," the Registrants reflect the fair values of derivative instruments subject to netting agreements with the same counterparty net of related cash collateral. For certain risk management contracts, the Registrants are required to post or receive cash collateral based on third-party contractual agreements and risk profiles. AEP netted cash collateral received from third-parties against short-term and long-term risk management assets in the amounts of $95 million and $87 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. There was no cash collateral received from third-parties netted against short-term and long-term risk management assets for the Registrant Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. AEP netted cash collateral paid to third-parties against short-term and long-term risk management liabilities in the amounts of $15 million and $3 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. I&M netted cash collateral paid to third-parties against short-term and long-term risk management liabilities in the amounts of $10 million and $600 thousand as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The amount of cash collateral paid to third-parties netted against short-term and long-term risk management liabilities was not material for the other Registrant Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

***Location and Fair Value of Derivative Assets and Liabilities Recognized on the Balance Sheet***

The following tables represent the gross fair value of the Registrants' derivative activity on the balance sheets. The derivative instruments are disclosed as gross. They are subject to master netting agreements and are presented on the balance sheets on a net basis in accordance with the accounting guidance for "Derivatives and Hedging." Unless shown as a separate line on the balance sheets due to materiality, Current Risk Management Assets are included in Prepayments and Other Current Assets, Long-term Risk Management Assets are included in Deferred Charges and Other Noncurrent Assets, Current Risk Management Liabilities are included in Other Current Liabilities and Long-term Risk Management Liabilities are included in Deferred Credits and Other Noncurrent Liabilities on the balance sheets.

(a)Represents realized and unrealized gains and losses subject to regulatory accounting treatment recorded as either current or noncurrent on the balance sheets.

Certain qualifying derivative instruments have been designated as normal purchase or normal sale contracts, as provided in the accounting guidance for "Derivatives and Hedging." Derivative contracts that have been designated as normal purchases or normal sales under that accounting guidance are not subject to MTM accounting treatment and are recognized on the statements of income on an accrual basis.

The accounting for the changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it qualifies for and has been designated as part of a hedging relationship and further, on the type of hedging relationship. Depending on the exposure, management designates a hedging instrument as a fair value hedge or a cash flow hedge.

For contracts that have not been designated as part of a hedging relationship, the accounting for changes in fair value depends on whether the derivative instrument is held for trading purposes. Unrealized and realized gains and losses on derivative instruments held for trading purposes are included in revenues on a net basis on the statements of income. Unrealized and realized gains and losses on derivative instruments not held for trading purposes are included in revenues or expenses on the statements of income depending on the relevant facts and circumstances. Certain derivatives that economically hedge future commodity risk are recorded in the same line item on the statements of income as that of the associated risk being hedged. However, unrealized and some realized gains and losses in regulated jurisdictions for both trading and non-trading derivative instruments are recorded as regulatory assets (for losses) or regulatory liabilities (for gains) in accordance with the accounting guidance for "Regulated Operations."

------

***Accounting for Fair Value Hedging Strategies (Applies to AEP)***

For fair value hedges (i.e. hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability or an identified portion thereof attributable to a particular risk), the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item associated with the hedged risk impacts net income during the period of change.

AEP records realized and unrealized gains or losses on interest rate swaps that are designated and qualify for fair value hedge accounting treatment and any offsetting changes in the fair value of the debt being hedged in Interest Expense on the statements of income.

The following table shows the impacts recognized on the balance sheets related to the hedged items in fair value hedging relationships:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Gain (Loss) is included in Interest Expense on the statements of income.

***Accounting for Cash Flow Hedging Strategies (Applies to AEP, AEP Texas, APCo, I&M, PSO and SWEPCo)***

For cash flow hedges (i.e. hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk), the Registrants initially report the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) on the balance sheets until the period the hedged item affects net income.

Realized gains and losses on derivative contracts for the purchase and sale of power designated as cash flow hedges are included in Total Revenues or Purchased Electricity, Fuel and Other Consumables Used for Electric Generation on the statements of income or in Regulatory Assets or Regulatory Liabilities on the balance sheets, depending on the specific nature of the risk being hedged. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, AEP applied cash flow hedging to outstanding power derivatives and the Registrant Subsidiaries did not.

The Registrants reclassify gains and losses on interest rate derivative hedges related to debt financings from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) on the balance sheets into Interest Expense on the statements of income in those periods in which hedged interest payments occur. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Registrants did not apply cash flow hedging to outstanding interest rate derivatives. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, AEP and AEP Texas applied cash flow hedging to outstanding interest rate derivatives and the other Registrant Subsidiaries did not.

For details on effective cash flow hedges included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) on the balance sheets and the reasons for changes in cash flow hedges, see Note 3 - Comprehensive Income.

As of June 30, 2025, the maximum length of time that AEP is hedging its exposure to variability in future cash flows related to forecasted transactions is approximately 10 years.

The actual amounts reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) to Net Income can differ from the estimate above due to market price changes.

***Credit Risk***

Management mitigates credit risk in wholesale marketing and trading activities by assessing the creditworthiness of potential counterparties before entering into transactions with them and continuing to evaluate their creditworthiness on an ongoing basis. Management uses credit agency ratings and current market-based qualitative and quantitative data as well as financial statements to assess the financial health of counterparties on an ongoing basis.

Master agreements are typically used to facilitate the netting of cash flows associated with a single counterparty and may include collateral requirements. Collateral requirements in the form of cash, letters of credit and parental/affiliate guarantees may be obtained as security from counterparties in order to mitigate credit risk. Some master agreements include margining, which requires a counterparty to post cash or letters of credit in the event exposure exceeds the established threshold. The threshold represents an unsecured credit limit which may be supported by a parental/affiliate guaranty, as determined in accordance with AEP's credit policy. In addition, master agreements allow for termination and liquidation of all positions in the event of a default including a failure or inability to post collateral when required.

***Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features***

*Credit Downgrade Triggers (Applies to AEP)*

A limited number of derivative contracts include collateral triggering events, which include a requirement to maintain certain credit ratings. On an ongoing basis, AEP's risk management organization assesses the appropriateness of these collateral triggering events in contracts. The Registrants have not experienced a downgrade below a specified credit rating threshold that would require the posting of additional collateral. The total exposure of AEP's derivative contracts with collateral triggering events in a net liability position was immaterial as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The Registrant Subsidiaries had no derivative contracts with collateral triggering events in a net liability position as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

------

*Cross-Acceleration Triggers (Applies to AEP)*

Certain interest rate derivative contracts contain cross-acceleration provisions that, if triggered, would permit the counterparty to declare a default and require settlement of the outstanding payable. These cross-acceleration provisions could be triggered if there was a non-performance event by the Registrants under any of their outstanding debt of at least $50 million and the lender on that debt has accelerated the entire repayment obligation. On an ongoing basis, AEP's risk management organization assesses the appropriateness of these cross-acceleration provisions in contracts. AEP had derivative contracts with cross-acceleration provisions in a net liability position of $48 million and $72 million and no cash collateral posted as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. If a cross-acceleration provision would have been triggered, settlement at fair value would have been required. The Registrant Subsidiaries had no derivative contracts with cross-acceleration provisions in a net liability position as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

*Cross-Default Triggers (Applies to AEP, APCo, PSO and SWEPCo)*

In addition, a majority of non-exchange traded commodity contracts contain cross-default provisions that, if triggered, would permit the counterparty to declare a default and require settlement of the outstanding payable. These cross-default provisions could be triggered if there was a non-performance event by Parent or the obligor under outstanding debt or a third-party obligation that is $50 million or greater. On an ongoing basis, AEP's risk management organization assesses the appropriateness of these cross-default provisions in the contracts. AEP had derivative contracts with cross-default provisions in a net liability position of $153 million and $164 million and no cash collateral posted as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, after considering contractual netting arrangements. If a cross-default provision would have been triggered, settlement at fair value would have been required. APCo, PSO and SWEPCo had derivative contracts with cross-default provisions in a net liability position of $2 million, $8 million and $2 million, respectively, and no cash collateral posted as of June 30, 2025. APCo, PSO and SWEPCo had derivative contracts with cross-default provisions in a net liability position of $1 million, $4 million and $2 million, respectively, and no cash collateral posted as of December 31, 2024. The other Registrant Subsidiaries had no derivative contracts with cross-default provisions in a net liability position as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

**10. <u>FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS</u>**

The disclosures in this note apply to all Registrants except AEPTCo unless indicated otherwise.

***Fair Value Hierarchy and Valuation Techniques***

The accounting guidance for "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). Where observable inputs are available for substantially the full term of the asset or liability, the instrument is categorized in Level 2. When quoted market prices are not available, pricing may be completed using comparable securities, dealer values, operating data and general market conditions to determine fair value. Valuation models utilize various inputs such as commodity, interest rate and, to a lesser degree, volatility and credit that include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, market corroborated inputs (i.e. inputs derived principally from, or correlated to, observable market data) and other observable inputs for the asset or liability.

For commercial activities, exchange-traded derivatives, namely futures contracts, are generally fair valued based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets and are classified as Level 1. Level 2 inputs primarily consist of OTC broker quotes in moderately active or less active markets, as well as exchange-traded derivatives where there is insufficient market liquidity to warrant inclusion in Level 1. Management verifies price curves using these broker quotes and classifies these fair values within Level 2 when substantially all of the fair value can be corroborated. Management typically obtains multiple broker quotes, which are nonbinding in nature but are based on recent trades in the marketplace. When multiple broker quotes are obtained, the quoted bid and ask prices are averaged. In certain circumstances, a broker quote may be discarded if it is a clear outlier. Management uses a historical correlation analysis between the broker quoted location and the illiquid locations. If the points are highly correlated, these locations are included within Level 2 as well. Certain OTC and bilaterally executed derivative instruments are executed in less active markets with a lower availability of pricing information. Illiquid transactions, complex structured transactions, FTRs and counterparty credit risk may require nonmarket-based inputs. Some of these inputs may be internally developed or extrapolated and utilized to estimate fair value. When such inputs have a significant impact on the measurement of fair value, the instrument is categorized as Level 3. The main driver of contracts being classified as Level 3 is the inability to substantiate energy price curves in the market. A portion of the Level 3 instruments have been economically hedged which limits potential earnings volatility.

AEP utilizes its trustee's external pricing service to estimate the fair value of the underlying investments held in the nuclear trusts. AEP's investment managers review and validate the prices utilized by the trustee to determine fair value. AEP's management performs its own valuation testing to verify the fair values of the securities. AEP receives audit reports of the trustee's operating controls and valuation processes.

Assets in the nuclear trusts, cash and cash equivalents, other temporary investments and restricted cash for securitized funding are classified using the following methods. Equities are classified as Level 1 holdings if they are actively traded on exchanges. Items classified as Level 1 are investments in money market funds, fixed income and equity mutual funds and equity securities. They are valued based on observable inputs, primarily unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Items classified as Level 2 are primarily investments in individual fixed income securities. Fixed income securities generally do not trade on exchanges and do not have an official closing price but their valuation inputs are based on observable market data. Pricing vendors calculate bond valuations using financial models and matrices. The models use observable inputs including yields on benchmark securities, quotes by securities brokers, rating agency actions, discounts or premiums on securities compared to par prices, changes in yields for U.S. Treasury securities, corporate actions by bond issuers, prepayment schedules and histories, economic events and, for certain securities, adjustments to yields to reflect changes in the rate of inflation. Other securities with model-derived valuation inputs that are observable are also classified as Level 2 investments. Investments with unobservable valuation inputs are classified as Level 3 investments.

***Fair Value Measurements of Long-term Debt (Applies to all Registrants)***

The fair values of Long-term Debt are based on quoted market prices, without credit enhancements, for the same or similar issues and the current interest rates offered for instruments with similar maturities classified as Level 2 measurement inputs. These instruments are not marked-to-market. The estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in a current market exchange.

The book values and fair values of Long-term Debt are summarized in the following table:

***Fair Value Measurements of Trust Assets for Decommissioning and SNF Disposal (Applies to AEP and I&M)***

Nuclear decommissioning and SNF trust funds represent funds that regulatory commissions allow I&M to collect through rates to fund future decommissioning and SNF disposal liabilities. By rules or orders, the IURC, the MPSC and the FERC established investment limitations and general risk management guidelines. In general, limitations include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Acceptable investments (rated investment grade or above when purchased).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Maximum percentage invested in a specific type of investment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Prohibition of investment in obligations of AEP, I&M or their affiliates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Withdrawals permitted only for payment of decommissioning costs and trust expenses.

I&M maintains trust funds for each regulatory jurisdiction. Regulatory approval is required to withdraw decommissioning funds. These funds are managed by an external investment manager that must comply with the guidelines and rules of the applicable regulatory authorities. The trust assets are invested to optimize the net of tax earnings of the trust giving consideration to liquidity, risk, diversification and other prudent investment objectives.

I&M records securities held in these trust funds in Spent Nuclear Fuel and Decommissioning Trusts on its balance sheets. I&M records these securities at fair value. I&M classifies debt securities in the trust funds as available-for-sale due to their long-term purpose.

Other-than-temporary impairments for investments in debt securities are considered realized losses as a result of securities being managed by an external investment management firm. The external investment management firm makes specific investment decisions regarding the debt and equity investments held in these trusts and generally intends to sell debt securities in an unrealized loss position as part of a tax optimization strategy. Impairments reduce the cost basis of the securities which will affect any future unrealized gain or realized gain or loss due to the adjusted cost of investment. I&M records unrealized gains, unrealized losses and other-than-temporary impairments from securities in these trust funds as adjustments to the regulatory liability account for the nuclear decommissioning trust funds and to regulatory assets or liabilities for the SNF disposal trust funds in accordance with their treatment in rates. Consequently, changes in fair value of trust assets do not affect earnings or AOCI.

The following is a summary of nuclear trust fund investments:

***Fair Value Measurements of Financial Assets and Liabilities***

The following tables set forth, by level within the fair value hierarchy, the Registrants' financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. As required by the accounting guidance for "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures," financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Management's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. There have not been any significant changes in management's valuation techniques.

The disclosures in this note apply to all Registrants unless indicated otherwise.

***Effective Tax Rates (ETR)***

The Registrants' interim ETR reflect the estimated annual ETR for 2025 and 2024, adjusted for tax expense associated with certain discrete items. In the second quarter of 2025, AEPTCo, APCo, I&M, PSO and SWEPCo recorded tax benefits of $256 million, $24 million, $38 million, $14 million and $46 million, respectively, contributing to a total AEP Consolidated benefit of $383 million, related to the remeasurement of Excess ADIT associated with the FERC order related to the treatment of NOLCs in transmission formula rates, driving a reduction to the interim ETR resulting in AEP's tax rate of (24.2)% for three months ended June 30, 2025 and (6.4)% for six months ended June 30, 2025 as shown below.

The ETR for each of the Registrants are included in the following tables:

***Federal and State Income Tax Audit Status***

AEP is not currently under IRS audit and the statute of limitations (SOL) for the IRS to examine AEP and subsidiaries originally filed federal return has expired for tax years prior to 2021. In July 2025, AEP received notification that its 2023 federal income tax return was selected for IRS examination.

AEP and subsidiaries file income tax returns in various state and local jurisdictions. AEP and subsidiaries are not currently under any state and local income tax examinations. Generally, the SOL have expired for tax years prior to 2021. In addition, management is monitoring and continues to evaluate the potential impact of federal legislation and corresponding state conformity.

***Federal Legislation***

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed H.R. 1 into law, commonly known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA). Most notably for AEP, this budget reconciliation legislation modifies and accelerates the phase out of wind and solar PTCs and ITCs, adds new restrictions to guard against certain foreign ownership or influence with respect to otherwise credit-eligible projects and makes 100% bonus depreciation permanent for our non-regulated entities. With the exception of bonus depreciation, this legislation is prospective and has no material impact on the current period financial statements. Following enactment of the legislation, on July 7, 2025, the President issued an Executive Order directing the Department of Treasury to issue new and revised wind and solar tax credit guidance within 45 days, which could impose further practical limits on the development of wind and solar projects. In addition to this potential near term guidance, additional significant guidance from the Department of Treasury and the IRS is expected on the tax provisions included in the OBBBA. AEP will continue to monitor any issued guidance and evaluate the impact on future net income, cash flows and financial condition.

------

**12. <u>VOLUNTARY SEVERANCE PROGRAM</u>**

In April 2024, management announced a voluntary severance program designed to achieve a reduction in the size of AEP's workforce. Approximately 7,400 of AEP's 16,800 employees were eligible to participate in the program. Approximately 1,000 employees chose to take the voluntary severance package and substantially all terminated employment in July 2024. The severance program provides two weeks of base pay for every year of service with a minimum of four weeks and a maximum of 52 weeks of base pay. Certain positions impacted by the voluntary severance program have been and will continue to be refilled to maintain safe, effective and efficient operations. Net savings from the program will help offset increasing operating expenses and high interest costs in order to keep electricity costs affordable for customers.

AEP recorded a charge to expense in the second quarter of 2024 related to this voluntary severance program.

These expenses were primarily included in Other Operation and Maintenance on the statements of income and Other Current Liabilities on the balance sheets. Settlement accounting was triggered for the qualified pension plan in November 2024 under the accounting guidance for "Compensation - Retirement Benefits" and a settlement charge of $90 million was recorded. As of June 30, 2025, all incurred expenses have been settled. AEP will seek recovery for the portion of the expense related to regulated operations. See Note 7 - Benefit Plans for additional information associated with the plan.

**13. <u>FINANCING ACTIVITIES</u>**

The disclosures in this note apply to all Registrants, unless indicated otherwise.

***Common Stock (Applies to AEP)***

*At-the-Market (ATM) Program*

In 2024, approximately $0.4 billion of common stock was offered and sold under the ATM program. There were no issuances under the ATM program for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Approximately $1.3 billion of equity is available for issuance under the ATM program upon the filing of a prospectus supplement.

*Forward Sale of Equity*

In March 2025, AEP entered into separate forward sale agreements with nonaffiliated forward purchasers relating to 22,549,020 shares of AEP's common stock at an initial price of $102.00 per share, exclusive of an underwriting discount equal to $2.244 per share. Except in certain specified circumstances that would require physical share settlement, AEP may elect to settle the forward sale transaction by means of physical, cash or net share settlement. The timing of the settlement of the forward sale agreements is also at AEP's discretion and management currently expects settlement to occur on or prior to December 31, 2026. To the extent the forward sale agreements are physically settled, AEP will issue common stock to the forward purchasers and receive cash proceeds based on the applicable forward sale price on the settlement date as defined in the forward sale agreements. As of June 30, 2025, AEP expects approximately $2.25 billion of net cash proceeds from the full physical settlement of the forward sale agreements and management anticipates using any future proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include capital contributions to utility subsidiaries, acquisitions or repayment of debt. The forward sale transactions will be classified as equity transactions because they are indexed to AEP's common stock and physical settlement is within AEP's control.

***Long-term Debt Outstanding (Applies to AEP)***

The following table details long-term debt outstanding, net of issuance costs and premiums or discounts:

***Financing Activities Subsequent Events***

In July 2025, AEGCo retired $45 million of Pollution Control Bonds.

In July 2025, I&M retired $10 million of Notes Payable related to DCC Fuel.

In July 2025, Transource Energy issued $4 million of variable rate Other Long-term Debt due in 2028.

In July 2025, AEP made a capital contribution of $200 million to AEP Texas.

***Debt Covenants (Applies to AEP and AEPTCo)***

Covenants in AEPTCo's note purchase agreements and indenture limit the amount of contractually-defined priority debt (which includes a further sub-limit of $50 million of secured debt) to 10% of consolidated tangible net assets. AEPTCo's contractually-defined priority debt was 0.3% of consolidated tangible net assets as of June 30, 2025. The method for calculating the consolidated tangible net assets is contractually-defined in the note purchase agreements.

------

***Dividend Restrictions***

*Utility Subsidiaries' Restrictions*

Parent depends on its utility subsidiaries to pay dividends to shareholders. AEP utility subsidiaries pay dividends to Parent provided funds are legally available. Various financing arrangements and regulatory requirements may impose certain restrictions on the ability of the subsidiaries to transfer funds to Parent in the form of dividends.

All of the dividends declared by AEP's utility subsidiaries that provide transmission or local distribution services are subject to a Federal Power Act requirement that prohibits the payment of dividends out of capital accounts in certain circumstances; payment of dividends is generally allowed out of retained earnings. The Federal Power Act also creates a reserve on earnings attributable to hydroelectric generation plants. Because of their ownership of such plants, this reserve applies to APCo and I&M.

Certain AEP subsidiaries have credit agreements that contain covenants that limit their debt to capitalization ratio to 67.5%. The method for calculating outstanding debt and capitalization is contractually-defined in the credit agreements.

The Federal Power Act restriction does not limit the ability of the AEP subsidiaries to pay dividends out of retained earnings.

*Parent Restrictions (Applies to AEP)*

The holders of AEP's common stock are entitled to receive the dividends declared by the AEP Board provided funds are legally available for such dividends. Parent's income primarily derives from common stock equity in the earnings of its utility subsidiaries.

Pursuant to the leverage restrictions in credit agreements, AEP must maintain a percentage of debt to total capitalization at a level that does not exceed 67.5%. The method for calculating outstanding debt and capitalization is contractually-defined in the credit agreements.

***Corporate Borrowing Program (Applies to all Registrant Subsidiaries)***

AEP subsidiaries use a corporate borrowing program to meet their short-term borrowing needs. The corporate borrowing program includes a Utility Money Pool, which funds AEP's utility subsidiaries; a Nonutility Money Pool, which funds certain AEP nonutility subsidiaries; and direct borrowing from AEP. The AEP Utility Money Pool operates in accordance with the terms and conditions of its agreement filed with the FERC. The amounts of outstanding loans to (borrowings from) the Utility Money Pool as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 are included in Advances to Affiliates and Advances from Affiliates, respectively, on the Registrant Subsidiaries' balance sheets. The Utility Money Pool participants' money pool activity and corresponding authorized borrowing limits for the six months ended June 30, 2025 are described in the following table:

---

***Securitized Accounts Receivables – AEP Credit (Applies to AEP)***

AEP Credit has a receivables securitization agreement with bank conduits. Under the securitization agreement, AEP Credit receives financing from the bank conduits for the interest in the receivables AEP Credit acquires from affiliated utility subsidiaries. These securitized transactions allow AEP Credit to repay its outstanding debt obligations, continue to purchase the operating companies' receivables and accelerate AEP Credit's cash collections.

AEP Credit's receivables securitization agreement provides a commitment of $900 million from bank conduits to purchase receivables and expires in September 2026. As of June 30, 2025, the affiliated utility subsidiaries were in compliance with all requirements under the agreement.

***Securitized Accounts Receivables – AEP Credit (Applies to all Registrant Subsidiaries except AEP Texas and AEPTCo)***

Under this sale of receivables arrangement, the Registrant Subsidiaries sell, without recourse, certain of their customer accounts receivable and accrued unbilled revenue balances to AEP Credit and are charged a fee based on AEP Credit's financing costs, administrative costs and uncollectible accounts experience for each Registrant Subsidiary's receivables. APCo does not have regulatory authority to sell its West Virginia accounts receivable. The costs of customer accounts receivable sold are reported in Other Operation expense on the Registrant Subsidiaries' statements of income. The Registrant Subsidiaries manage and service their customer accounts receivable, which are sold to AEP Credit. AEP Credit securitizes the eligible receivables for the operating companies and retains the remainder.

The amount of accounts receivable and accrued unbilled revenues under the sale of receivables agreements were:

**14. <u>VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES</u>**

The disclosures in this note apply to AEP unless indicated otherwise.

The accounting guidance for "Variable Interest Entities" is a consolidation model that considers if a company has a variable interest in a VIE. A VIE is a legal entity that possesses any of the following conditions: the entity's equity at risk is not sufficient to permit the legal entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, equity owners are unable to direct the activities that most significantly impact the legal entity's economic performance (or they possess disproportionate voting rights in relation to the economic interest in the legal entity), or the equity owners lack the obligation to absorb the legal entity's expected losses or the right to receive the legal entity's expected residual returns. Entities are required to consolidate a VIE when it is determined that they have a controlling financial interest in a VIE and therefore, are the primary beneficiary of that VIE, as defined by the accounting guidance for "Variable Interest Entities." In determining whether AEP is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, management considers whether AEP has the power to direct the most significant activities of the VIE and is obligated to absorb losses or receive the expected residual returns that are significant to the VIE. Management believes that significant assumptions and judgments were applied consistently.

AEP holds ownership interests in businesses with varying ownership structures. Partnership interests and other variable interests are evaluated to determine if each entity is a VIE, and if so, whether or not the VIE should be consolidated into AEP's financial statements. AEP has not provided material financial or other support that was not previously contractually required to any of its consolidated VIEs. AEP's interests in non-consolidated VIEs are accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

***Consolidated Variable Interest Entities***

*Cost Recovery Funding (Applies to AEP)*

In June 2025, Cost Recovery Funding was formed for the sole purpose of issuing and servicing securitization bonds related to plant retirement costs, deferred storm costs related to 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023 major storms, deferred purchased power expenses, under-recovered purchased power rider costs and issuance-related expenses, including KPSC advisor expenses. Management concluded that KPCo is the primary beneficiary of Cost Recovery Funding because KPCo has the power to direct the most significant activities of the VIE and KPCo's equity interest could potentially be significant. Therefore, KPCo is required to consolidate Cost Recovery Funding. As of June 30, 2025, $9 million of the securitized bonds was included in Long-term Debt Due Within One Year and $459 million was included in Long-term Debt on the balance sheet. Cost Recovery Funding's securitized assets were $468 million as of June 30, 2025, which was presented separately on the face of the balance sheet.

The securitized assets represent the right to impose and collect KPCo recovery charges from KPCo's customers. The securitization bonds are payable only from and secured by the securitized assets. The bondholders have no recourse to KPCo or any other AEP entity. KPCo acts as the servicer for Cost Recovery Funding's securitized assets and remits all related amounts collected from customers to Cost Recovery Funding for interest and principal payments on the securitization bonds and related costs. See the tables below for the classification of Cost Recovery Funding's assets and liabilities on the balance sheet.

The 2024 Annual Report includes a detailed discussion of other Registrants' consolidated VIEs.

The balances below represent the assets and liabilities of AEP's consolidated VIEs. These balances include intercompany transactions that are eliminated upon consolidation.

***Contract Assets and Liabilities***

Contract assets are recognized when the Registrants have a right to consideration that is conditional upon the occurrence of an event other than the passage of time, such as future performance under a contract. The Registrants did not have material contract assets as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

When the Registrants receive consideration, or such consideration is unconditionally due from a customer prior to transferring goods or services to the customer under the terms of a sales contract, they recognize a contract liability on the balance sheets in the amount of that consideration. Revenue for such consideration is subsequently recognized in the period or periods in which the remaining performance obligations in the contract are satisfied. The Registrants' contract liabilities typically arise from services provided under joint use agreements for utility poles. The Registrants did not have material contract liabilities as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

***Accounts Receivable from Contracts with Customers***

Accounts receivable from contracts with customers are presented on the Registrant Subsidiaries' balance sheets within the Accounts Receivable - Customers line item. The Registrant Subsidiaries' balances for receivables from contracts that are not recognized in accordance with the accounting guidance for "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" included in Accounts Receivable - Customers were not material as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. See "Securitized Accounts Receivable - AEP Credit" section of Note 13 for additional information.

The following table represents the amount of affiliated accounts receivable from contracts with customers included in Accounts Receivable - Affiliated Companies on the Registrant Subsidiaries' balance sheets:

**<u>CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES</u>**

During the second quarter of 2025, management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of each of the Registrants, evaluated the Registrants' disclosure controls and procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures are defined as controls and other procedures of the Registrants that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Registrants in the reports that they file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Registrants in the reports that they file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Registrants' management, including the principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of June 30, 2025, these officers concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures in place are effective and provide reasonable assurance that the disclosure controls and procedures accomplished their objectives.

There was no change in the Registrants' internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the second quarter of 2025 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrants' internal control over financial reporting.

**PART II. OTHER INFORMATION**

**Item 1. <u>Legal Proceedings</u>**

For a discussion of material legal proceedings, see "Commitments, Guarantees and Contingencies," of Note 5 incorporated herein by reference.

**Item 1A. <u>Risk Factors</u>**

The 2024 Annual Report includes a detailed discussion of risk factors. As of June 30, 2025, the risk factors appearing in the 2024 Annual Report are supplemental and updated as follows:

***Changes in U.S. or foreign trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs and other protectionist trade measures, and other factors beyond our control may adversely impact our future net income and cash flows and financial condition.***

The U.S. administration has taken executive action and proposed additional measures intended to alter the U.S. approach to international trade policy, the terms of certain existing bilateral or multi-lateral trade agreements and trading arrangements with foreign countries. Such changes to U.S. international trade policy, and any retaliatory trade measures that foreign governments may take in response, including the imposition of tariffs, sanctions, export or import controls, or other measures that restrict international trade, or the threat of such actions, could result in additional increases in the cost of certain goods, services and cost of capital and further extend lead times. In addition, related geopolitical and domestic political developments, such as existing and potential trade wars, uncertainty regarding changes in trade policy, and other events beyond our control, have increased and may continue to increase levels of political and economic unpredictability globally and the volatility of global financial markets. As a result, prevailing economic conditions may reduce future net income and cash flows and negatively impact financial condition.

**Item 2. <u>Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds</u>**

None.

**Item 3. <u>Defaults Upon Senior Securities</u>**

None.

**Item 4. <u>Mine Safety Disclosures</u>**

Not applicable.

**Item 5. <u>Other Information</u>**

On May 15, 2025, Benjamin G. S. Fowke, III, a director of the Company, entered into a Rule 10b5-1 trading agreement ("Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plan") intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Mr. Fowke's Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plan provides for an aggregate sale of up to 25,000 shares of common stock through December 12, 2025.

On May 15, 2025, Kelly J. Ferneau, the Executive Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer of the Company, entered into a Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plan intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Members' names, addresses and Percentage Interests are set forth on the Schedule of Members attached to this Agreement as <u>Schedule 1</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;No Member, acting in its capacity as a Member, shall be entitled to vote on any matter relating to the Company other than as specifically required by the Act or as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, any matter requiring the action, consent, vote or other approval of the Members hereunder shall require action, consent, vote or approval of the Members owning at least a majority of the Membership Interests.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A Member shall automatically cease to be a Member upon direct Transfer of all of such Member's Membership Interests made pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Immediately upon any such permissible direct Transfer, the Company shall cause such Member to be removed from <u>Schedule 1</u> to this Agreement and to be substituted by the transferee or transferees in such Transfer, and, except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, such transferee or transferees shall be deemed to be a "Member" and a "Party" for all purposes hereunder and all references to the AEP Member or the Investor Member, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be references to such transferee or transferees (notwithstanding, in the case that more than one Person is a transferee of such Membership Interests, that such defined terms as used herein are singular in number). All Membership Interests held or acquired by a Member and its Affiliates that from time to time hold Membership Interests shall be aggregated together for purposes of determining the rights or obligations of a Member, or application of any restrictions to a Member, or reference to its Membership Interests under this Agreement, in each instance in which such right, obligation or restriction is determined by any ownership threshold. In the event there is more than one Investor Member and such Members are not Affiliated, the appointment, consent and approval rights afforded hereunder to the Investor Member specifically (as opposed to any such rights afforded to Members generally) shall be exercised by the vote or consent of (i) with respect to any such rights expressly subject to any applicable Percentage Interest threshold or expressly applicable to any Investor Member regardless of Percentage Interest (including the Investor Member rights set forth in <u>Section 2.2</u>, <u>Section 2.13</u>, <u>Section 8.1</u>, <u>Section 8.2</u>, <u>Section 8.3</u> and <u>Section 13.15</u>), each such Investor Member (together with its Affiliates), separately and independently, that meets any such applicable Percentage Interest threshold or (ii) with respect to any other such rights (including the Investor Member rights set forth in <u>Section 6.3</u>), by Investor Members holding a majority of the cumulative Membership Interests that are held by all of the Investor Members.

Section 1.7&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Powers</u>. The Company shall have the power and authority to do any and all acts necessary or convenient to or in furtherance of the purposes described in <u>Section 1.3</u>, including all power and authority, statutory or otherwise, possessed by, or which may be conferred upon, limited liability companies under the Laws of the State of Delaware.

Section 1.8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Limited Liability Company Agreement</u>. This Agreement shall constitute the "limited liability company agreement" of the Company for the purposes of the Act. The rights, powers, duties, obligations and liabilities of the Members shall be determined pursuant to

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3

------

the Act and this Agreement. To the extent that the rights, powers, duties, obligations and liabilities of any Member are different by reason of any provision of this Agreement than they would be under the Act in the absence of such provision, this Agreement shall control to the fullest extent permitted by the Act and other applicable Law.

Section 1.9&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Issuance of Additional Membership Interests</u>. Except for (a) the issuance of any Excluded Membership Interests or (b) the issuance of Membership Interests made pursuant to and in accordance with <u>Section 5.1</u>, <u>Article VII</u> or as otherwise permitted herein, the Company shall not issue any new Membership Interests, or any securities convertible into Membership Interests or other equity interests of the Company, to any Third Party or to the Members other than in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests.

Section 1.10&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>No State Law Partnership</u>. The Parties intend that the Company not be a partnership (including a limited partnership) or joint venture, and that no Member be a partner or joint venturer of any other Member by virtue of this Agreement, for any purposes, and neither this Agreement nor any other document entered into by the Company or any Member relating to the subject matter hereof shall be construed to suggest otherwise. Nothing in this <u>Section 1.10</u> shall control with respect to income tax treatment of the Company.

**ARTICLE II<br>MANAGEMENT**

Section 2.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Managers</u>. Subject to the provisions of the Act and any limitations in this Agreement as to action required to be authorized or approved by the Members (including any action that requires the consent of the Investor Member pursuant to <u>Section 8.1</u> or <u>Section 8.2</u>), the business and affairs of the Company shall be managed and all its powers shall be exercised by or under the direction of a board of Managers (the "<u>Board</u>" and each duly appointed and continuing member thereof from time to time, a "<u>Manager</u>"), and no Member, by virtue of having the status of a Member, shall have any management power over the business and affairs of the Company or any actual or apparent authority to enter into Contracts on behalf of, or to otherwise bind, the Company. Without prejudice to such general powers, but subject to the same limitations, the Board shall be empowered to conduct, manage and control the business and affairs of the Company and to make such rules and regulations therefor not inconsistent with applicable Law or this Agreement, as the Board shall deem to be in the best interest of the Company (subject to the limitations on fiduciary duties set forth in <u>Section 2.11</u>).

Section 2.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Number of Managers; Proportional Appointment Rights</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The authorized number of Managers constituting the Board shall be 11 Managers, subject to any increase effected pursuant to <u>Section 2.2(e)</u> (the "<u>Total Number of Managers</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Investor Member shall, as of the Effective Date, be entitled to appoint two Managers. The Investor Member shall retain the right to appoint two Managers for so long as it (together with its Affiliates) holds a Percentage Interest equal to or greater than 17.5%. In the event that the Investor Member's Percentage Interest (together with its Affiliates) is reduced

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4

------

below 17.5% but remains at or above a 9.9% Percentage Interest, the Investor Member shall retain the right to appoint one Manager. In the event that the Investor Member's Percentage Interest (together with its Affiliates) is reduced below 9.9%, the Investor Member shall cease to be entitled to appoint any Investor Managers. Managers appointed by the Investor Member are referred to herein as "<u>Investor Managers</u>". The appointment of any particular proposed Investor Manager shall be subject to the AEP Member's prior written consent of the identity of such individual prior to his or her appointment to the Board (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that the AEP Member shall not have any such consent right over the appointment of any proposed Investor Manager that is a Qualified Designee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In the event that the Investor Member's Percentage Interest decreases such that the Investor Member would be entitled to appoint a number of Investor Managers that is less than the number of Investor Managers then serving on the Board, the Investor Member will, concurrently with such decrease, designate (in the Investor Member's sole discretion) one or more Investor Managers for removal from the Board, such that the number of Investor Managers serving on the Board is equal to the number of Investor Managers that the Investor Member is entitled to appoint at such time pursuant to <u>Section 2.2(b)</u>, such removal or removals being effective immediately upon such designation. If the Investor Member fails to so designate Investor Managers concurrently with such decrease in the Investor Member's Percentage Interest, then the AEP Member may designate (in the AEP Member's sole discretion) for removal the number of Investor Managers required to be removed from the Board pursuant to the immediately foregoing sentence, such removal or removals being effective immediately upon such designation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The AEP Member shall be entitled to appoint all of the remaining Total Number of Managers that the Investor Member is not entitled to appoint pursuant to <u>Section 2.2(b)</u>. Managers appointed by the AEP Member are referred to herein as "<u>AEP Managers</u>"; <u>provided</u>, that any AEP Manager must be a Qualified Designee. The AEP Member shall further be entitled to designate an AEP Manager to serve as the chairperson of the Board.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In the event that the Investor Member's Percentage Interest increases such that the Investor Member would be entitled to appoint a number of Investor Managers that is greater than the number of Investor Managers then serving on the Board, the AEP Member will, concurrently with such increase, elect (such election to be made in the AEP Member's sole discretion) to either (i) designate (in the AEP Member's sole discretion) one or more AEP Managers for removal from the Board, such that the number of Manager positions available for Investor Managers is equal to the number of Investor Managers that the Investor Member is entitled to appoint at such time pursuant to <u>Section 2.2(b)</u>, such removal or removals being effective immediately upon such designation, or (ii) increase the Total Number of Managers to create a number of new vacancies on the Board such that the number of Manager positions available for Investor Managers is equal to the number of Investor Managers that the Investor Member is entitled to appoint at such time pursuant to <u>Section 2.2(b)</u>. If the AEP Member fails to so act concurrently with such increase in the Investor Member's Percentage Interest, then the Investor Member may designate (in the Investor Member's sole discretion) for removal the

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5

------

number of AEP Managers required to be removed from the Board had the AEP Member elected the actions set forth in <u>clause (i)</u> of the immediately foregoing sentence, such removal or removals being effective immediately upon such designation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For each Investor Manager that the Investor Member is entitled to appoint, the Investor Member shall be further entitled to identify up to an equal number of individuals (not to exceed the number of Investor Managers the Investor Member is then-entitled to appoint) (each, a "<u>Designated Alternate</u>") who are authorized to attend meetings of the Board (or meetings of Board committees) in lieu of any Investor Manager in the event that such Investor Manager is unable to attend such meeting. A Designated Alternate will be entitled to exercise the powers of the applicable absent Investor Manager at such meetings, and will be subject to all of the responsibilities of an Investor Manager hereunder at such meeting as if they were the Investor Manager. The appointment of any Designated Alternate shall be subject to the same approval right of the AEP Member applicable to Investor Managers under <u>Section 2.2(b)</u>. If a Designated Alternate is serving in lieu of an absent Investor Manager at any Board or committee meeting, the Investor Member shall provide notice to the AEP Member of this fact prior to the commencement of such meeting (which notice may be in the form of written notice, including by way of an email to the AEP Managers, or an oral announcement by the Designated Alternate of such fact at the commencement of such meeting), and such notice shall be recorded in the minutes of such meeting. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the applicable Investor Manager for which a Designated Alternate was so designated, on the one hand, and such Designated Alternate, on the other hand, may not both function as a Manager at any meeting of the Board (or committee thereof), and (ii) any references to approval or notice by the Investor Managers in this Agreement will be deemed to refer to the Investor Managers, and not a Designated Alternate, except in respect of the voting on matters presented at the meeting at which a Designated Alternate is attending. In the event that the Designated Alternate is also the Board Observer, at any Board or committee meeting in which he or she is serving as an Investor Manager pursuant to this <u>Section 2.2(f)</u>, he or she shall be deemed to be serving only as an Investor Manager and not as the Board Observer at such meeting.

Section 2.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Removal of Managers</u>. Any one or more Managers may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by the Member that appointed such Manager, and except as provided in <u>Section 2.2(c)</u> and <u>Section 2.2(e)</u>, may not be removed by any other means. If a Manager is convicted by a court or equivalent tribunal of any felony (or equivalent crime in the applicable jurisdiction), or of any misdemeanor (or equivalent crime in the applicable jurisdiction) that involves financial dishonesty or moral turpitude, then the Member that appointed such Manager shall, unless consented to by the other Member, promptly remove such Manager. If a Manager is no longer a Qualified Designee, the Member that appointed such Manager shall promptly remove such Manager, unless consented to by each other Member that is not an Affiliate of the Member that appointed such Manager. Delivery of a written notice to the Company by a Member designating for removal a Manager appointed by such Member shall conclusively and with immediate effect constitute the removal of such Manager, without the necessity of further action by the Company, the Board, or by the applicable removed Manager. Each Manager duly appointed by a Member pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of <u>Section 2.2</u> shall hold office until his or her resignation, death, permanent disability, removal

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6

------

pursuant to and in accordance with <u>Section 2.2</u> or with this <u>Section 2.3</u>, or until a successor Manager is duly appointed by the Member that appointed (and continues to be entitled to appoint) such Manager.

Section 2.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Vacancies</u>. A vacancy shall be deemed to exist in case of the resignation, death, permanent disability or removal of any Manager, or pursuant to an increase in the Total Number of Managers pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of <u>Section 2.2(e)</u>. The Member entitled to appoint a Manager to the vacant Manager position may appoint or elect a Manager thereto to take office (a) immediately, (b) effective upon the departure of the vacating Manager, in the case of a resignation, or (c) at such other later time as may be determined by such Member.

Section 2.5&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Acts of the Board; Voting</u>. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement (including <u>Section 8.1</u> and <u>Section 8.2</u>), a vote of a majority of the Managers present at a duly called and noticed meeting of the Board at which a quorum is present shall be required to authorize or approve any action of the Board; <u>provided</u>, that if any Manager is not present at a meeting at which a quorum is established, the present Managers appointed by the same Member (or its Affiliates) as the absent Manager shall collectively have the right to cast one additional vote for each such Manager appointed by the same Member (or its Affiliates) not in attendance at such meeting that would be eligible to vote on the applicable action or decision if present at the meeting. Every act of or decision taken or made by the Managers pursuant to the vote required by this <u>Section 2.5</u> shall be conclusively regarded as an act of the Board.

Section 2.6&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Compensation of Managers</u>. No compensation shall be paid to any Manager without the unanimous approval of the Board, <u>provided</u> that the allocated share of any such compensation shall reasonably be expected to be recoverable in the FERC-jurisdictional regulated rates for the transmission facilities owned by the Company Group. The Board shall also have the authority (but not the obligation) to reimburse Managers for expenses incurred for attendance at meetings of the Board or otherwise in connection with their respective service on the Board. Nothing herein shall be construed to preclude any Manager from serving the Company in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor. If approved by the Board, the Board Observer may be entitled to reimbursement for expenses incurred for attendance at meetings of the Board to the same extent as if he or she were a Manager.

Section 2.7&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Meetings of Managers; Notice</u>. Except as provided pursuant to <u>Section 2.10</u>, meetings of the Board, both regular and special, for any purpose or purposes may be called at any time by the Board or by the Company at the request of any Manager, by providing at least seven calendar days' written notice to each Manager unless the chairperson of the Board determines, acting reasonably, that there is a significant and time sensitive matter that requires shorter notice to be given, in which case a meeting of the Board may be called by giving at least 48 hours' written notice to each Manager. Regular Board meetings will be held at least quarterly. Each notice shall state the purpose(s) of and agenda for the meeting and include all required information, including dial-in numbers or other applicable access information, in order to participate in the meeting by telephonic means, over the internet or by means of any other customary electronic communications equipment. Unless otherwise agreed by unanimous

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7

------

consent of the Board, no proposal shall be put to a vote of the Board unless it has been listed on the agenda for such meeting. Notice of the time and place of meetings shall be delivered personally or by telephone to each Manager, or sent by e-mail or other electronic communication to any Manager. Any notice given personally or by telephone shall be communicated to the applicable Manager. A Manager may waive the notice requirement set forth in this <u>Section 2.7</u> by any means reasonable in the circumstances, including by communication to one or more other Managers, and the presence of a Manager at a meeting or the approval by a Manager of the minutes thereof shall conclusively constitute a waiver by such Manager of such notice requirement.

Section 2.8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Quorum</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, the presence (whether physical, telephonic, over the internet or by means of other customary electronic communications equipment) of a majority of the number of Managers then serving on the Board (without regard to the Total Number of Managers) at a meeting of the Board, which must include at least one Investor Manager (if one is serving on the Board) and the number of AEP Managers necessary for the AEP Managers to constitute a majority of Managers at any such meeting, shall constitute a quorum of the Board for the transaction of all business thereat; <u>provided</u>, that if a quorum fails at two consecutive attempted meetings that are called pertaining to the same subject matter with proper notice due to the failure of the Investor Manager(s) to attend, then at the third attempted meeting only a majority of the number of Managers then serving on the Board, including the number of AEP Managers necessary for the AEP Managers to constitute a majority of Managers at any such meeting (without regard to the Total Number of Managers or the attendance of the Investor Manager(s)) must be present in person, by telephone or other electronic means or by proxy in order to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business for purposes of conducting only those matters that were included on the agenda for the attempted meetings immediately preceding such third attempted meeting.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If a quorum is not present at any meeting of the Board, the Managers present at such meeting may adjourn the meeting, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, and the Board or Manager that called for the meeting may attempt to reschedule such meeting until a quorum is present.

Section 2.9&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Place and Method of Meetings</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Meetings of the Board may be held at any place, whether within or outside the State of Delaware or the State of Ohio, and meetings may be held, in whole or in part, by telephonic means, over the internet or by means of any other customary electronic communications equipment. The place at which (or, if applicable, the electronic communication methods by which) a meeting will be held may be specified in the applicable notice of the meeting; <u>provided</u>, that in the absence of such specification, or in the event that any Manager objects to the place or electronic communication methods (if any) specified in the applicable notice, then the applicable meeting shall be held solely in physical presence at the principal executive office of the Company located at 1 Riverside Plaza, Columbus, OH 43215, as such

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Managers may participate in meetings of the Board by telephonic means, over the internet or by means of any other customary electronic communications equipment, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, shall be deemed to be present at such meeting for all purposes, including for purposes of determining quorum and of voting.

Section 2.10&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Action by the Board Without a Meeting</u>. Any action required or permitted to be taken by the Board may be taken without a meeting if a majority of the number of Managers then serving on the Board (or, if greater, the number of Managers the vote of whom would be minimally necessary to approve such action at a meeting of the Board) shall individually or collectively consent in writing to such action; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that, if (a) one or more Investor Managers are serving on the Board at the time of such written action, (b) the subject matter of such written action had not previously been addressed during a duly called and noticed meeting of the Board at which a quorum was present, and (c) no Investor Manager joins such written action, then, in such case, the written action shall not be effective until 48 hours after the secretary, assistant secretary or other officer of the Company designated by the Board has notified all then-serving Investor Managers of such action, it being understood that, during such 48-hour period, any Investor Manager shall be entitled to call a special meeting of the Board (to be held within such period and solely telephonically, over the internet or by means of other customary electronic communications equipment) for purposes of discussing with the Board the subject matter of such written action (without regard, solely for purpose of such discussion and not for purposes of taking any action that requires the vote of the Board, to whether a quorum is present to constitute a duly convened meeting of the Board). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no action set forth in <u>Section 8.1</u> or <u>Section 8.2</u> that requires the consent of the Investor Member shall be effected by written action entered into pursuant to this <u>Section 2.10</u> without the Investor Member's consent. Any written actions of the Board may be in counterparts and transmitted by e-mail and shall be filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the Board. Such written actions shall have the same force and effect as a vote of the Board.

Section 2.11&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Duties of Managers</u>. Each member of the Board shall have fiduciary duties identical to those of directors of a business corporation organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Members expressly acknowledge and agree that the enforcement or exercise by an Investor Member (or an Investor Manager providing consent on behalf of an Investor Member pursuant to <u>Section 8.4</u>) of any of its rights under <u>Section 8.1</u> or <u>Section 8.2</u> and that the pursuit of business ventures by any Member as permitted by <u>Section 9.3</u> shall in no event constitute a violation of the fiduciary duties of the applicable Investor Manager or Investor Member, which are hereby disclaimed in all respects with respect thereto. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they expand or restrict the duties and liabilities of the Board, otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to replace such other duties and liabilities of the Board.

Section 2.12&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Committees</u>. The Board may create one or more committees of the Board, delegate responsibilities, duties and powers to such one or more committees, and appoint

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9

------

Managers to serve thereon; <u>provided</u>, that, for so long as the Investor Member is entitled to appoint at least one Investor Manager, at least one Investor Manager shall be entitled to be a member of any such committee(s). Each Manager appointed to serve on any such committee shall serve at the pleasure of the Board, or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the resolution designating the applicable committee. <u>Section 2.4</u>, <u>Section 2.7</u>, <u>Section 2.8</u>, <u>Section 2.9</u> and <u>Section 2.10</u> shall each apply to any committee of the Board with the same terms applicable to the Board, *mutatis mutandis*.

Section 2.13&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Investor Member Board Observer</u>. An Investor Member shall be entitled to appoint one Person (which shall be an individual) to serve as an observer of the Board (the "Board Observer") for so long as such Investor Member's Percentage Interest is equal to or greater than 4.9% (but in no event shall there be more than one Board Observer and, if more than one Investor Member holds a Percentage Interest equal to or greater than 4.9%, the Board Observer shall be the Person designated in writing by a majority in interest of Investor Members holding a Percentage Interest equal to or greater than 4.9%), which such individual shall be a Representative of an Investor Member and the identity of whom shall be subject to the prior written consent of the AEP Member (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); <u>provided</u>, that the AEP Member shall not have any such consent right over the appointment of any proposed Board Observer that is a Qualified Designee. The Board Observer shall have the right to receive notice of, attend and participate in all meetings of the Board (and any committee thereof) and to receive all information provided to Managers at the same time and in the same manner as provided to such Managers; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Company and the Board will be entitled to withhold access to any portion of the information and to exclude the Board Observer from any portion of any meeting of the Board (or any committee thereof) if the Company or the Board determines in good faith in reliance upon the advice of counsel that access to such information or attendance at such meeting is reasonably necessary to preserve an attorney-client privilege of the Company or the Board; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Investor Member shall be notified of any intent to exclude the Board Observer in reliance on the foregoing proviso in advance of any meeting from which the Board Observer is to be excluded; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that, any Board Observer that is excluded shall only be excluded for such portion of the meeting during which such matter or transaction is being discussed. For the avoidance of doubt, the Board Observer shall not have any voting rights with respect to any matter brought before the Board and shall not be counted in any manner with respect to whether a quorum is present at a meeting of the Board, and (without limiting the Company's obligations to provide the Board Observer with notice of meetings of the Board and any committee thereof as set forth in this <u>Section 2.13</u>) no defect in the provision of notice to the Board Observer of any meeting of the Board shall be construed to constitute a defect in the provision of notice to Managers. In the event that the Board Observer is also a Designated Alternate and, in such capacity, he or she is serving at a Board or committee meeting as an Investor Manager pursuant to <u>Section 2.2(f)</u>, the Investor Member shall not be entitled to appoint an additional individual to serve as a replacement Board Observer to exercise the rights and duties of a Board Observer for that meeting. The Board Observer shall be bound by the same confidentiality obligations as the Managers as set forth in <u>Section 9.4</u>. The Investor Member may cause the Board Observer to resign or appoint a replacement Board Observer from time to time by giving written notice to the Company and shall, unless, consented to by the AEP Member, appoint a new Board Observer if

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10

------

the Board Observer ceases to be a Qualified Designee. In the event that the Investor Members are no longer eligible to appoint the Board Observer pursuant to the first sentence of this <u>Section 2.13</u>, the Investor Members' rights under this <u>Section 2.13</u> shall immediately cease. For the avoidance of doubt, the sole purpose of this <u>Section 2.13</u> is to provide observation rights (subject to the limitations and conditions set forth in this <u>Section 2.13</u>) to an individual Representative of the Investor Member, and in no event will any Board Observer be construed to be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement, an agent of the Company of any kind or for any purpose, or have any other claim against the Company or the Members in relation to any matter whatsoever.

Section 2.14&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Related Party Matters</u>.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except as required by applicable Law, the Board and the AEP Member and its Affiliates shall ensure at all times during the term of this Agreement that any methodologies used to allocate costs to the Company Group would not result in any fines, claims or penalties (including any settlement amounts) that are imposed on any member of the AEP Outside Group being allocated to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries other than fines, claims or penalties (including settlement amounts) imposed on a member of the AEP Outside Group that directly relate to services performed for or on behalf of, or that directly result from the business or operations of, a member of the Company Group. The AEP Member shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the corporate separateness of the Company Group from the AEP Member and other members of the AEP Outside Group in a manner consistent with the Company Group's and the AEP Outside Groups' respective past practices and all applicable Laws and Orders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Investor Member acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Company Group and the AEP Outside Group have prior to the Effective Date engaged in Affiliate

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In the event the Company, its Subsidiaries and/or the AEP Member becomes aware of any material breach or material default (it being understood that, for purposes of this <u>clause (c)</u>, a breach or default will be deemed to be "material" if (x) the reasonably expected amount of damages that would be sustained by the Company and its Affiliates as a result of such breach or default, or series of related breaches or defaults, would exceed $30,000,000 individually or in the aggregate or (y) the breach or default would otherwise be material to the Company Group, taken as a whole) by any member of the Company Group or AEP Outside Group under any Affiliate Transaction (an "<u>Affiliate Transaction Default</u>"), the Company and/or the AEP Member, as applicable, shall promptly, but in any event within 10 Business Days after becoming aware of such Affiliate Transaction Default, send a written notice (a "<u>Default Notice</u>") to the Company and the Investor Member setting forth in reasonable detail the nature of such Affiliate Transaction Default and the reasonable estimate of the current and future anticipated losses associated with such Affiliate Transaction Default (to the extent feasible to make a reasonable estimate at such time). After delivery of such Default Notice to the Investor Member, the Company (and, if the Company did not provide the Default Notice, the AEP Member) shall promptly provide the Investor Member with any additional information reasonably requested by the Investor Member relating to such Affiliate Transaction Default. The defaulting party under such Affiliate Transaction shall have (i) 10 Business Days following the expiration of the applicable cure period in respect of such Affiliate Transaction, to fully cure any monetary Affiliate Transaction Default, and (ii) 60 days following the expiration of the applicable cure period in respect of such Affiliate Transaction, to fully cure any non-monetary Affiliate Transaction Default, subject to and consistent with applicable Law and Orders. In the event that any material alleged Affiliate Transaction Default is not timely cured in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Investor Member shall have the sole right to cause the Company Group to take, or refrain from taking, any actions in connection with the enforcement of or compliance with the rights or obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under the terms of the applicable Affiliate Transaction, including the commencement of any litigation,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12

**ARTICLE V<br>CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS; DISTRIBUTIONS**

Section 5.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Capital Contributions</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Subject to <u>Section 8.1</u> and <u>Section 8.2</u>, if the Board determines that it is in the best interests of the Company to obtain additional equity capital for purposes of (i) developing, constructing, acquiring, operating or maintaining Qualifying Core Assets or funding ordinary course operations of the Company Business, (ii) satisfying the Company's obligations in respect of the Company Group Third Party Indebtedness, (iii) complying with applicable Law or Order or (iv) funding any Emergency Expenditures (any such determination by the Board, an "<u>Additional Funding Requirement</u>"), then the Board may direct the Company to submit to the Members a written capital funding request notice (a "<u>Capital Request Notice</u>"), which Capital Request Notice shall set forth (A) the anticipated amount of, and the reason for, such Additional Funding Requirement, (B) each Member's requested share of such Additional Funding Requirement, which with respect to each Member shall equal such Member's Percentage Interest *multiplied* by the aggregate amount of the Additional Funding Requirement (such share, the "<u>Pro Rata Request Amount</u>") and (C) the funding date for such Additional Funding Requirement (the "<u>Capital Request Funding Date</u>"), which Capital Request Funding Date shall not be earlier than 30 days (or, with respect to an Additional Funding Requirement solely to fund Emergency Expenditures, 20 days) following the date on which such Capital Request Notice is delivered to the Members. Subject to the express provisions of this <u>Article V</u> and the terms of Investor Member's ECL, each Member may, but shall not be obligated to, contribute its Pro Rata Request Amount as called for in the applicable Capital Request Notice. Additional Funding Requirements will be considered a "<u>Mandatory Capital Contribution</u>" applicable to all Members to the extent Investor Member's pro-rata share of such Additional Funding Requirement would not cause Investor Member to make capital contributions in excess of the Remaining Annual Maximum Commitment Amount as of the Capital Request Funding Date for such calendar year.

------

Upon the receipt of a Capital Request Notice, each Member shall, within 20 days of such receipt, provide written notice to the Company and the other Members as to the extent to which such Member intends to fund its Pro Rata Request Amount, whether in whole, in part or not at all (a "<u>Response To Capital Call</u>"). If one Member indicates in its Response To Capital Call that it does not intend to fund its Pro Rata Request Amount in full, and any other Member had, prior thereto, submitted a Response To Capital Call indicating that it intends to fund a greater percentage than such other Member of its Pro Rata Request Amount, then such other Member will be entitled to amend its Response To Capital Call to reduce its percentage funding to an amount representing a percentage of its Pro Rata Request Amount not less than the lower percentage indicated in the other Member's Response To Capital Call. For the avoidance of doubt and subject to the foregoing sentence (and the terms of the ECL), no Member shall have any obligation to fund any Additional Funding Requirement pursuant to this <u>Section 5.1</u> unless such Member indicates that it will do so in its Response To Capital Call. Any Capital Request Notice or Response to Capital Call may be delivered by electronic mail to the electronic mail addresses specified in, or pursuant to, Section 13.1 without any copy to counsel specified therein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If any Member refuses (including by indicating in its Response to Capital Call that it does not intend to fund its Pro Rata Request Amount in full) or fails to make all or any portion of its Pro Rata Request Amount pursuant to this <u>Section 5.1</u> on or prior to the applicable Capital Request Funding Date (such Member, the "<u>Non-Contributing Member</u>", and the unfunded amount, the "<u>Unfunded Amount</u>"), then the Company shall provide written notice thereof upon such refusal or such failure to the Members (the "<u>Contribution Unfunded Amount Notice</u>"), and:

To the extent that the Non-Contributing Member contributes a portion (but less than all) of its Pro Rata Request Amount, and another Member has contributed a greater percentage of its Pro Rata Request Amount than the Non-Contributing Member (the "<u>Over-Contributing Member</u>"), the Over-Contributing Member shall have the right to elect (which election shall be made by written notice to the Company and the other Members no later than 10 Business Days following the date of the Contribution Unfunded Amount Notice) to (A) receive a special distribution of the portion of the Pro Rata Request Amount contributed by the Over-Contributing Member associated with such excess percentage (the "<u>Excess Contribution</u>"), or any portion thereof, such that the Excess Contribution or applicable portion thereof is returned to the Over-Contributing Member (and the Company shall cause such special distribution to be made as promptly as practicable) and (B) have any remaining portion of such Excess Contribution (to the extent not distributed to the Over-Contributing Member in accordance with <u>clause (i)(A)</u> above) that would have been the Non-Contributing Member's share thereof treated as a (I) loan to the Company (consistent with the methodology in <u>clause (ii)(A)</u> below), or (II), solely in the case the AEP Member is the Over-Contributing Member, contribution to capital (consistent with the methodology in <u>clause (ii)(B)</u> below) (or, solely in the case the AEP Member is the Over-Contributing Member, as any combination thereof as the AEP Member elects).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Loan</u>. The Contributing Member may elect to advance all or a portion of the Unfunded Amount to the Company on behalf of the Non-Contributing Member, which advance shall be treated as a loan by the Contributing Member to the Non-Contributing Member (an "<u>Unfunded Amount Loan</u>") at an interest rate equal to (i) solely to the extent the failure to fund the capital contributions was in respect of a Mandatory Capital Contribution, the greater of (I) the prime rate of interest per annum published in <u>The Wall Street Journal</u> under "Money Rates", as such rate may be in effect from time to time, as of the date such amount was advanced plus 2% and (II) the highest rate payable on any Company Group Third Party Indebtedness and (ii) in all other cases the highest rate payable on any Company Group Third Party Indebtedness. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Unfunded Amount Loan shall be repaid out of any subsequent distributions made pursuant to <u>Section 5.2</u> to which the Non-Contributing Member would otherwise be entitled under this Agreement, and such payments shall be applied first to the payment of accrued but unpaid interest on each such Unfunded Amount Loan and then to the payment of the outstanding principal until such Unfunded Amount Loan is paid in full.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Capital Contribution</u>. Except in the event that the Non-Contributing Member is the AEP Member, the AEP Member may elect to contribute an amount equal to all or a portion of the Unfunded Amount to the Company. If the AEP Member elects to contribute to the Company all or a portion of the Unfunded Amount, then, on or after the earlier of the date that the Non-Contributing Member indicates it will not cure the failure to fund its full Pro Rata Request Amount and the 30<sup>th</sup> day following the date of the Contribution Unfunded Amount Notice, the Company shall issue to the AEP Member the amount of additional Membership Interests that can be purchased for such funded amount at a price per Membership Interest equal to (i) solely to the extent the failure to fund the capital contributions was in respect of a Mandatory Capital Contribution, 90% of the Fair Market Value of the Company (measured as of immediately prior to the time that such contribution is to be made) per Membership Interest or (ii) in all other cases, the Fair Market Value of the Company (measured immediately prior to the time that such contribution is to be made) per Membership Interest, and the AEP Member's and the Non-

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18

Contributing Member's respective Percentage Interests will be adjusted accordingly.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Cure Right</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this <u>Section 5.1</u>, on or before the 30<sup>th</sup> day following the date of the Contribution Unfunded Amount Notice, a Non-Contributing Member may make a contribution to the Company equal to the sum of the Unfunded Amount plus, if the Contributing Member already made an Unfunded Amount Loan in respect of such Unfunded Amount, any interest accrued on the Unfunded Amount Loan, following which (1) the Unfunded Amount advanced by the Contributing Member to the Company together with any such interest shall be paid to the Contributing Member, and (2) the former Non-Contributing Member shall be deemed to have cured its failure to pay the Pro Rata Request Amount prior to the Capital Request Funding Date with respect to the applicable Capital Request Notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If the Non-Contributing Member refuses or fails to make its full Pro Rata Request Amount pursuant to this <u>Section 5.1</u> on or prior to the applicable Capital Request Funding Date and the Contributing Member has not fully funded the Unfunded Amount in accordance with <u>Section 5.1(b)</u>, then on or after the 30<sup>th</sup> day following the date of the applicable Contribution Unfunded Amount Notice, the Board may authorize the Company to seek additional equity funds on commercially reasonable terms from a Third Party in an amount up to the difference between the total Additional Funding Requirement requested and the total funds received by the Company from the Non-Contributing Member and the Contributing Member (including any additional funds that the Contributing Member may have contributed pursuant to <u>Section 5.1(b)</u>), and to issue Membership Interests to Third Parties in connection therewith pursuant to this <u>Section 5.1(c)</u>. If the Board determines to seek additional equity funds from and issue Membership Interests to a Third Party pursuant to this <u>Section 5.1(c)</u>, then the Company must consummate such issuance within 180 days following the Capital Request Funding Date. If such issuance is not consummated within such 180-day period, then the Company's right to so issue Membership Interests to a Third Party in connection with the applicable Additional Funding Requirement shall be lapsed, and the Company shall not thereafter issue any Membership Interests to a Third Party in connection with such Additional Funding Requirement; <u>provided</u> that, if a definitive agreement providing for such issuance is executed prior to the expiration of such 180-day period but the issuance has not been consummated at the expiration of such period solely as a result of a failure to receive the requisite authorization, approval or consent of any Governmental Body in respect of such issuance, then such period shall be extended solely to the extent necessary to permit the receipt of all such authorizations, approvals or consents which are in process but have not been received from the relevant Governmental Body as of such original expiration date and the consummation of the issuance provided for in such definitive agreement; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that the Company shall have used its reasonable best efforts in seeking such authorizations, approvals and consents. Upon the completion of such issuance of Membership Interests pursuant to this <u>Section 5.1(c)</u>, the Company shall give written notice to the Members of such issuance, which notice shall specify (i) the total number of new Membership Interests issued, (ii) the price per Membership Interest at which the Company issued

the Membership Interests, (iii) any other material terms of the issuance and (iv) the resulting Percentage Interests of each Member.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In the event that the Investor Member refuses or fails to fund all or any portion of its share of an Additional Funding Requirement pursuant to this <u>Section 5.1</u> on or prior to the applicable Capital Request Funding Date in respect of two Mandatory Capital Contributions, subject to <u>Section 5.1(b)(ii)(C)</u>, from and after the occurrence of the second such refusal or failure by the Investor Member, the AEP Member may (but is not required to), at its option at any time during the 36-month period following the date of such second failure to fund by Investor Member (the "<u>Call Period</u>"), acquire all (but not less than all) of the Membership Interests held by the Investor Member (together with its Affiliates) (the "<u>Call Right</u>") by giving written notice (the "<u>Call Notice</u>") to the Investor Member of its election to exercise the Call Right; <u>provided</u> that the Investor Member shall have 60 days following the Call Notice to cure the most recent such failure to fund. If the AEP Member does not deliver the Call Notice to exercise its Call Right within the applicable Call Period, the Call Right shall expire solely with respect to the two failures to fund giving rise to such Call Right. The purchase price payable by the AEP Member in connection with the exercise of the Call Right shall be equal to the product of (i) 90% of the Fair Market Value of the Company (measured as of the date of the delivery of the Call Notice to the Investor Member) multiplied by (ii) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the number of Membership Interests that the Investor Member (together with its Affiliates) owns at such time and (B) the denominator of which is the total number of Membership Interests then outstanding (the amount equal to such product, the "<u>Call Exercise Price</u>"). If the Call Right is exercised by the AEP Member within the applicable Call Period, each of the Parties shall take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this <u>Section 5.1(d)</u> as promptly as practicable, but in any event not later than 30 days after, or, if the Investor Member indicates its intent to cure its funding failure prior to such 30<sup>th</sup> day, 60 days after, the delivery of the Call Notice or, if authorizations, approvals or consents from a Governmental Body are required prior to such consummation, 15 days after the receipt of all such required authorizations, approvals or consents (such period, the "<u>Call Consummation Period</u>"), including entering into agreements, delivering applicable certificates and instruments and obtaining and cooperating to obtain any consents, in each case as may be deemed reasonably necessary. If the applicable Investor Member fails to take all actions necessary to consummate the Transfer of the Membership Interests held by it in accordance with this <u>Section 5.1(d)</u> prior to the expiration of the Call Consummation Period, then such Investor Member shall be deemed to be in material breach of this Agreement for purposes of <u>Article IV</u> and for all other purposes hereunder, and shall be deemed to have granted (and hereby grants, contingent only on the occurrence of such failure) an irrevocable appointment of any Person nominated for the purpose by the AEP Member to be such Investor Member's agent and attorney to execute all necessary documentation and instruments on its behalf to Transfer the Investor Member's Membership Interest to the Company as the holder thereof, in each case consistent with the provisions of this <u>Section 5.1(d)</u>. At the consummation of any purchase and sale pursuant to this <u>Section 5.1(d)</u>, the Investor Member shall sell to the AEP Member all of the Membership Interests owned by the Investor Member (together with its Affiliates) in exchange for the Call Exercise Price. Contemporaneously with its receipt from the AEP Member of the Call Exercise Price, the Investor Member (together with its Affiliates) shall Transfer to the AEP Member all of the

Membership Interests owned by the Investor Member (together with its Affiliates), free and clear of all Liens other than those arising as a result of or under the terms of this Agreement and those arising under securities Laws of general applicability pertaining to limitations on the transfer of unregistered securities. The Members and the Company acknowledge and agree that they shall cooperate reasonably to obtain any necessary authorization, approval or consent of any Governmental Body to consummate the transactions contemplated by this <u>Section 5.1(d)</u>. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event the Call Right is exercised, the Investor Member may request the Fair Market Value be determined in accordance with <u>Section 13.15</u>, regardless of the Investor Member's Percentage Interest at such time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Investor Member has delivered to the Company on the Effective Date the ECLs. Solely to the extent the Remaining ECL Annual Commitment Amount as of the Capital Request Funding Date is greater than zero, the Investor Member shall be required to make its portion of a Mandatory Capital Contribution. In the event the Investor Member fails to make its portion of any such Mandatory Capital Contribution to the extent the Remaining ECL Annual Commitment Amount as of the Capital Request Funding Date is greater than zero dollars, the Company shall be entitled to enforce the Investor Member's obligation to fund solely up to such Remaining ECL Annual Commitment Amount, in addition to the other remedies provided herein (with the Investor Managers abstaining from determining any such enforcement). For the avoidance of doubt, (i) in no event shall the Company be entitled to enforce the Investor Member's obligation to fund any such portion of Mandatory Capital Contribution to the extent it would cause the Investor Member to make capital contributions in excess of the ECL Annual Commitment Amount for the applicable calendar year and (ii) whether or not the Company enforces such obligation or enforces its rights as a third party beneficiary under the ECLs, if a capital contribution is made, such funding shall be treated as the funding of a capital contribution by the Investor Member for purposes of determining whether any remedies set forth in <u>Section 5.1(b)</u> are available.

Section 5.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Distributions Generally; Support Payments</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Except as otherwise provided herein and subject to <u>Section 5.2(b)</u>, <u>Section 5.2(c)</u> and the Act, no later than 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter, the Company shall make distributions in cash of all its Available Cash in respect of such fiscal quarter. The Company may make such other more frequent distributions (including interim distributions) at such times and in such amounts as the Board may determine.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Except as otherwise provided herein, all distributions shall be paid to the Members only in cash and in the same proportion as their respective Percentage Interest; <u>provided</u> that, in the case of distributions to be paid in respect of any period during which the Percentage Interest of the Members changed following the Effective Date, such distributions shall be prorated to reflect the Percentage Interest of the Members on each day of such measurement period, and the Company and the Members shall take such action as necessary to effectuate such proration.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Notwithstanding the terms of this <u>Section 5.2</u> and any other provision of this Agreement, (i) the Company shall not make any distribution to any Member on account of

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21

its Membership Interests to the extent such distribution would violate the Act, other applicable Law or an Order, and (ii) a Member may direct the payment of part or all of any distribution to another Person by providing written notice of such direction to the Company.

Section 5.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Distributions upon the Occurrence of an Event of Dissolution</u>. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Dissolution, the Board will proceed, subject to the provisions herein, to wind up the affairs of the Company, liquidate and distribute the remaining assets of the Company (<u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that all distributions shall be paid to the Members only in cash) and apply the proceeds of such liquidation in the order of priority in accordance with Section 18-804 of the Act or as may otherwise be agreed to by the Members.

Section 5.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Withdrawal of Capital; Interest</u>. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, (a) no Member may withdraw capital or receive any distributions from the Company and (b) no interest shall be paid by the Company on any capital contribution or distribution.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;No Member shall Transfer any of its Membership Interests except pursuant to and in accordance with this <u>Article VI</u>. Any purported Transfer by any Member of its Membership Interests in violation of this <u>Section 6.1(a)</u>, or without compliance in all respects with the provisions of this <u>Article VI</u> pertaining to such purported Transfer, shall be invalid and void *ab initio*, and such purported Transfer by such Member shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement for purposes of <u>Article IV</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Subject to <u>Section 6.2</u> and <u>Section 6.6</u>, neither the Investor Member nor the AEP Member may Transfer any of its Membership Interests to any Person prior to the date that is the third anniversary of the Effective Date (the "<u>Lock-Up Period</u>"), other than with the prior written consent of the AEP Member or the Investor Member, as applicable. After the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, each of the Investor Member and the AEP Member, as applicable, may Transfer its Membership Interests in accordance with this <u>Article VI</u>.

Transferee) intends to Transfer its Membership Interests to a Permitted Transferee, such transferring Member or the Permitted Transferee, as applicable, shall notify the other Member and the Company of the intended Transfer at least 20 Business Days prior to the intended Transfer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each Member shall be permitted to directly or indirectly Encumber its Membership Interests or any equity interests in such Member in connection with any debt financing, the proceeds of which have been or will be used by such Member to finance its purchase of such Membership Interests (whether in respect of an issuance of new Membership Interests by the Company or the purchase of existing Membership Interests from a Member), to directly or indirectly fund future or additional capital contributions, or in the refinancing of any such debt financing in the future, and neither such Lien nor any commencement or consummation of foreclosure proceedings or exercise of foreclosure remedies by a secured party on, or the subsequent direct or indirect sale of, a Member's Membership Interests Encumbered in connection with any such debt financing shall, in either case, be considered a "Transfer" for any purpose under this Agreement; <u>provided</u>, that (i) such Member shall be obligated to promptly notify the other Member and the Company in writing following the commencement of any such foreclosure remedies or proceedings, (ii) in the event of the consummation of such a foreclosure, such Member will automatically cease to be deemed the owner of the Membership Interests so foreclosed and will cease to have any rights in respect thereof (with the financing source foreclosing on such Membership Interests succeeding to the rights and responsibilities of the Member hereunder), and (iii) the consummation of any such foreclosure will be subject to the receipt of any required authorization, approval or consent of all applicable Governmental Bodies.

Section 6.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Right of First Offer</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Prior to any Transfer by a Member (each, a "<u>Transferring Member</u>") of Membership Interests constituting 50% or less of the outstanding Membership Interests, other than to a Permitted Transferee of such Transferring Member or pursuant to Put Sales in accordance with <u>Section 6.6</u>, the Transferring Member must first offer to sell, or cause to be offered for sale, to the other Member (the "<u>Non-Transferring Member</u>") all of the equity interests (corresponding to direct or indirect interests in the Membership Interests to be Transferred) that it desires to sell (such equity interests to be offered for sale to the Non-Transferring Member pursuant to this <u>Section 6.3</u>, the "<u>Subject Membership Interests</u>"), in each case, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the provisions of this <u>Section 6.3</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, a Non-Transferring Member may delegate its rights to purchase the Subject Membership Interests to a Person that would qualify as a Permitted Transferee, and the Transferring Member may delegate its rights to sell the Subject Membership Interests to the Persons owning such Subject Membership Interests (if not the Transferring Member itself), and the applicable rights and obligations afforded to such Member pursuant to this <u>Section 6.3</u> shall apply to such delegee *mutatis mutandis*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Transferring Member shall first deliver to the Non-Transferring Member a written notice (a "<u>Sale Notice</u>") setting forth the cash price and all of the other material terms and conditions at which the Transferring Member is willing

Within 30 days following its receipt of a Sale Notice, the Non-Transferring Member may accept the Transferring Member's offer and purchase the Subject Membership Interests at the cash price and upon the other material terms and conditions set forth in the Sale Notice, in which event the closing of the purchase and sale of the Subject Membership Interests will take place as promptly as practicable. The Sale Notice shall contain representations and warranties by the Transferring Member to the Non-Transferring Member that (A) the Transferring Member has full right, title and interest in and to the Subject Membership Interests, (B) the Transferring Member has all the necessary power and authority and has taken all necessary action to Transfer the Subject Membership Interests to the Non-Transferring Member as contemplated by this <u>Section 6.3</u>, and (C) the Subject Membership Interests are free and clear of any and all Liens other than those arising as a result of or under the terms of this Agreement and those arising under securities Laws of general applicability pertaining to limitations on the transfer of unregistered securities.

Any sale process to Transfer the Subject Membership Interests to one or more Third Parties shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Laws and the applicable rules of any stock exchange, not be publicly announced prior to the execution of a definitive agreement and shall be run in accordance with customary practices to ensure a confidential sale process, including requiring potential Third Party acquirors to enter into nondisclosure agreements protecting the Company Group's and the AEP Outside Group's confidential information to the maximum extent. If such sale to any Third Party is not completed prior to the expiration of the Sale Period, then the process initiated by the delivery of the Sale Notice shall be lapsed, and the Transferring Member will be required to repeat the process set forth in this <u>Section 6.3</u> before entering into any agreement with respect to, or consummating, any sale of Membership Interests to any Third Party; <u>provided</u> that if a definitive agreement providing for the consummation of such sale is executed within the Sale Period but such sale has not been consummated at the expiration of the Sale Period solely as a result of a failure to receive the requisite authorization, approval or consent of any Governmental Body in respect of such sale, then the Sale Period shall be extended solely to the extent necessary to permit the receipt of all such authorizations, approvals or consents which are in process but have not been received from the relevant Governmental Body as of the original expiration date of the Sale Period and the consummation of the

Within 10 Business Days after January 1, 2026 (and each year thereafter during the 10-Business Day period beginning on January 1 of the applicable year), the AEP Member shall have the right to update the list of Prohibited Competitors set forth on <u>Schedule 2</u> (i) to replace no more than three of the Prohibited Competitors with other Competitors designated by the AEP Member in good faith, and (ii) in addition to any replacements pursuant to <u>clause (i)</u>, to, in good faith, add up to two additional Prohibited Competitors designated by the AEP Member to such list. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, this <u>Section 6.3(b)</u> and <u>Schedule 2</u> (together with the definition of "Prohibited Competitor") shall automatically terminate and have no further force and effect in the event that the AEP Member and its Permitted Transferees, individually or collectively, no longer control the Company.

If the Investor Member wishes to participate in the Tag-Along Sale, then the Investor Member shall provide written notice (the "<u>Tag-Along Election Notice</u>") to the AEP Member no less than 30 days after the date of the Tag-Along Notice, indicating such election. Such Tag-Along Election Notice shall set forth the number of its Membership Interests that the Investor Member elects to include in the Tag-Along Sale (which number shall not exceed its Tag Portion solely in the case of a Tag-Along Sale described under <u>Section 6.4(a)(i)</u>), and such Tag-Along Election Notice shall constitute such Investor Member's binding agreement to sell such Membership Interests on the terms and subject to the conditions applicable to the Tag-Along Sale.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Notwithstanding the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, the Investor Member shall not be entitled to Transfer its Membership Interests pursuant to this <u>Section 6.4</u> in the event that, notwithstanding delivery of a written notice of election to participate in such Tag-Along Sale pursuant to this <u>Section 6.4</u>, the Investor Member fails to consummate the Transfer of its Membership Interests (on the terms and conditions required by this <u>Section 6.4</u>) in the applicable Tag-Along Sale.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the terms of this <u>Section 6.4</u> apply to any Transfers of any Membership Interests by a Permitted Transferee of the AEP Member that would otherwise constitute a Tag-Along Sale, and (ii) the rights conferred to the Investor Member under this <u>Section 6.4</u> do not apply in the event of a Change in Control of AEP Parent.

Section 6.5&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Drag-Along Rights</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If the AEP Member elects to exercise the Drag-Along Right pursuant to <u>Section 6.5(a)</u>, then the AEP Member shall send a written notice to the Investor Member (a "<u>Drag-Along Notice</u>") specifying (i) that the Investor Member is required to Transfer all of its Membership Interests pursuant to this <u>Section 6.5</u>, (ii) the amount of cash consideration payable for the Investor Member's Membership Interests, (iii) the name of the Third Party to which the Investor Member's Membership Interests are to be Transferred (or which is otherwise entitled to

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Any Transfer required to be made by the Investor Member pursuant to this <u>Section 6.5</u> shall be for consideration consisting solely of cash. Without the consent of the Investor Member, the Investor Member shall not be required in connection with such Drag-Along Sale to agree to any material non-customary covenants (including restrictive covenants such as non-compete and similar provisions that would restrict its or its Affiliates' business activities).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At the consummation of the Drag-Along Sale, the Investor Member shall Transfer all of its Membership Interests to the Drag-Along Buyer (or its designee), and the Drag-Along Buyer shall pay the consideration due for the Investor Member's Membership Interest. If the Investor Member has failed, as of immediately prior to the time that the consummation of the Drag-Along Sale would otherwise have occurred, to have taken all actions necessary in accordance with this Agreement to consummate the Transfer of the Membership Interests held by it, then the Investor Member shall be deemed to be in material breach of this Agreement for purposes of <u>Article IV</u> and for all other purposes hereunder, and shall be deemed to have granted (and hereby grants, contingent only on the occurrence of such failure) an irrevocable appointment of any Person nominated for the purpose by the AEP Member to be the Investor Member's agent and attorney to execute all necessary documentation and instruments on its behalf to Transfer the Investor Member's Membership Interest to the Drag-Along Buyer (or as it may direct) as the holder thereof, in each case consistent with the terms set forth in this <u>Section 6.5</u>.

If the Drag-Along Sale is not completed prior to the expiration of the Drag Sale Period, then the process initiated by the delivery of the Drag-Along Notice shall be lapsed, and the AEP Member will be required to repeat the process set forth in this <u>Section 6.5</u> to pursue any Drag-Along Sale; <u>provided</u> that if a definitive agreement providing for the consummation of such Drag-Along Sale is executed within the Drag Sale Period but such Drag-Along Sale has not been consummated at the expiration of the Drag Sale Period solely as a result of a failure to receive the requisite authorization, approval or consent of any Governmental Body in respect of such Drag-Along Sale, then the Drag Sale Period shall be extended solely to the extent necessary to permit the receipt of all such authorizations, approvals or consents which are in process but have not been received from the relevant Governmental Body as of the original expiration date of the Drag Sale Period and the consummation of the Drag-Along Sale provided for in such definitive agreement; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that the AEP Member shall have used efforts in seeking such authorizations, approvals and consents consistent with its obligations under such definitive agreement(s) in respect thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Notwithstanding the foregoing, the AEP Member may not exercise the Drag-Along Right or consummate any Drag-Along Sale without the prior written consent of the Investor Member unless the applicable Drag-Along Sale would result in the Investor Member receiving cash proceeds resulting in it achieving at least an IRR of 10% (the "<u>Investor Return Threshold</u>") and a MOIC of 2.15x (the "<u>MOIC Return Threshold")</u>; <u>provided</u>, that any shortfall in the Investor Member achieving the higher of the Investor Return Threshold or the MOIC

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;29

------

Return Threshold may be paid by the AEP Member to the Investor Member in immediately available funds at the closing of the Drag-Along Sale, in which case the prior written consent of the Investor Member shall not be required to exercise the Drag-Along Right or consummate such Drag-Along Sale.

Section 6.6&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Put Option</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The AEP Member and the Company shall provide Investor Members written notice (an "<u>Option Notice</u>") of AEP Parent or any of its Affiliates entering into any Contract relating to a transaction (excluding any Tag-Along Sale for which the Investor Members have received a Tag-Along Notice) that would result in the Company no longer being majority owned and controlled directly or indirectly by AEP Parent (such transaction, a "<u>Put Transaction</u>"), which such Option Notice shall be delivered to the Investor Members no later than the earlier of (i) five (5) Business Days following entrance into any such Contract related to a Put Transaction or (ii) at least twenty (20) Business Days prior to consummation of such Put Transaction and shall include the AEP Member's good faith determination of the Fair Market Value of the Membership Interests of each Investor Member together with reasonable supporting documentation thereof. The Investor Members shall have the option (exercisable collectively by a majority-in-interest (based on Percentage Ownership) of the Investor Members, and not individually), in their sole discretion, to elect to require that all (but not less than all) of the Membership Interests of all of the Investor Members be purchased by the AEP Member (or its designee) for cash in connection with such Put Transaction. If the Investor Members collectively so elect to exercise such option, such electing Investor Members (constituting at least a majority-in-interest (based on Percentage Ownership) of the Investor Members) shall deliver written notice of such election (the "<u>Put Notice</u>") to the Company and AEP Member no later than twenty (20) Business Days following receipt of the Option Notice, and which Put Notice specifies whether the electing Investor Members agree with the Fair Market Value determination of their Membership Interests provided by the AEP Member or dispute such determination pursuant to <u>Section 13.15</u>. If the Investor Members fail to timely deliver a Put Notice in accordance with the immediately prior sentence, the Investor Members shall be deemed to have waived their option described in this <u>Section 6.6</u> with respect to the applicable Put Transaction. For purposes of any dispute with respect to the Fair Market Value of the Membership Interests of the Investor Members: (x) initiating a dispute with respect to the Fair Market Value determination of the Membership Interests in connection with a Put Transaction shall require consent by a majority-in-interest (based on Percentage Ownership) of the Investor Members, (y) a majority-in-interest (based on Percentage Ownership) of the Investor Members shall make all decisions on behalf of all Investor Members in respect of the applicable Fair Market Value determination pursuant to <u>Section 13.15</u>, and (z) any determination of the Fair Market Value of the Membership Interests in connection with a Put Sale (as defined below) pursuant to <u>Section 13.15</u> shall be binding on all Investor Members.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Upon receipt of the Put Notice, the AEP Member (or its designee) shall purchase all of the Membership Interests of all of the Investor Members no later than the later of (i) five (5) Business Days following receipt of the applicable Put Notice or (ii) the closing date of the Put Transaction (it being understood that such purchase is contingent upon, and is not occurring prior to, the closing of the applicable Put Transaction) (in each case, as may be extended (x) in order to finally determine Fair Market Value pursuant to <u>Section 13.15</u> solely for the portion of consideration in dispute and (y) to obtain any requisite authorization, approval or consent of any Governmental Body) (the "<u>Put Sale</u>"). The consideration to be paid by the AEP Member (or its designee) to each Investor Member in respect of the applicable Membership Interests shall be the Fair Market Value thereof (without giving effect to any transaction costs of the Company Group associated with the Put Transaction, it being understood such shall not be borne directly or indirectly by the Investor Members participating in the Put Sale) as of the date of the Put Sale, less (without duplication) any then-outstanding balance (including principal and accrued interest) of all Unfunded Amount Loans owed by such Investor Member. The AEP Member (or its designee) shall pay the purchase price payable in the Put Sale in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the applicable Investor Member. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Investor Members initiate a dispute pursuant to <u>Section 13.15</u> with respect to the AEP Member's determination of Fair Market Value, then the Investor Members constituting at least a majority-in-interest (based on Percentage Ownership) of the Investor Members may, by written notice to the AEP Member and the Company, revoke any Put Notice within five (5) Business Days of final determination of Fair Market Value pursuant to <u>Section 13.15</u> and thereafter the Investor Members shall have no obligation to sell their Membership Interests pursuant to the applicable Put Sale. If the Investor Members fail to timely revoke their Put Notice within such timeframe in accordance with the immediately prior sentence, the Investor Members shall continue to be bound to sell their Membership Interests pursuant to this <u>Section 6.6</u>.

Section 6.7&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Cooperation</u>. The Members and the Company acknowledge and agree that each of them shall cooperate (and the AEP Member and the Company shall cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate) reasonably to obtain the requisite authorization, approval or consent of any Governmental Body or material third party necessary to consummate any Transfers contemplated or permitted by this <u>Article VI</u>. The Members shall have the right in connection with any Transfer of Membership Interests permitted by this Agreement (or in connection with the investigation or consideration of any such potential Transfer) to require the Company to reasonably cooperate with (and the AEP Member and the Company shall cause their respective Affiliates to reasonably cooperate with) potential purchasers in such prospective Transfer (at the sole cost and expense of the applicable Member or such potential purchasers) by taking such actions reasonably requested by the applicable Member or such potential purchasers, including (a) preparing or assisting in the preparation of due diligence materials, (b) providing access to the Company's and each of its Subsidiaries' books, records, properties and other materials (subject, in each case, to the execution of customary confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements) to potential purchasers, and (c) making the directors, managers, officers, employees (if any) and other Representatives of the Company Group and any centralized service company Affiliate of the Company that provides services to the Company Group available to potential purchasers for a reasonable number of presentations and due diligence interviews; <u>provided</u> that no such

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;31

cooperation by the Company shall be required (i) until the relevant potential purchaser executes and delivers to the Company a customary confidentiality agreement, (ii) to the extent such cooperation would unreasonably interfere with the normal business operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and (iii) to the extent the provision of any information would (A) conflict with, or constitute a violation of, any applicable Law or Order or cause a loss of attorney-client privilege of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (B) in the AEP Member's reasonable, good faith determination, require the disclosure of any information that is proprietary, confidential or sensitive to the AEP Member or to any other member of the AEP Outside Group (but solely to the extent of withholding such information), or (C) require the disclosure of any information relating to any joint, combined, consolidated or unitary Tax Return that includes the AEP Member or any other member of the AEP Outside Group or any supporting work papers or other documentation related thereto (other than any portion thereof relating solely to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or relating to the Tax Allocation Agreement (and any amendment thereof)).

**ARTICLE VII<br>PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS**

Section 7.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Preemptive Rights</u>. The Company hereby grants to each Member the right to purchase such Member's Preemptive Right Share of all (or any part) of any New Securities that the Company may from time to time issue after the date of this Agreement (the "<u>Preemptive Right</u>"); <u>provided</u>, that no Non-Contributing Member shall have a Preemptive Right with respect to New Securities issued pursuant to <u>Section 5.1</u> as a result of such Non-Contributing Member's failure to make all or any portion of its Pro Rata Request Amount. In the event the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New Securities (in a single transaction or a series of related transactions), the Company shall give to each Member written notice of its intention to issue New Securities (the "<u>Preemptive Right Participation Notice</u>"), describing the amount and type of New Securities, the cash purchase price and the general terms upon which it proposes to issue such New Securities. Each Member shall have 10 Business Days from the date of receipt of any such Preemptive Right Participation Notice (the "<u>Preemptive Right Notice Period</u>") to agree in writing to purchase for cash up to such Member's Preemptive Right Share of such New Securities for the price and upon the terms and conditions specified in the Preemptive Right Participation Notice by giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased (not to exceed such Member's Preemptive Right Share) as well as the maximum number of New Securities it would purchase. If any Member fails to so respond in writing within the Preemptive Right Notice Period, then such Member shall forfeit the right hereunder to purchase its Preemptive Right Share of such New Securities and the Company will allocate the rights to purchase such New Securities to any other Member that indicated it would purchase New Securities in excess of its Preemptive Right Share based on their relative Preemptive Right Shares. Subject to obtaining the requisite authorization, approval or consent of any Governmental Body, the closing of any purchase by any Member pursuant to this <u>Section 7.1</u> shall be consummated concurrently with the consummation of the issuance or sale described in the Preemptive Right Participation Notice. The Company shall be free to complete the proposed issuance or sale of New Securities described in the Preemptive Right Participation Notice with respect to any New Securities not elected to be purchased pursuant to this <u>Section 7.1</u> in

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32

------

accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Preemptive Right Participation Notice (except that the amount of New Securities to be issued or sold by the Company may be reduced). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, a Member may delegate their Preemptive Rights to a Person that would qualify as a Permitted Transferee and the rights afforded to such Member pursuant to this <u>Section 7.1</u> shall apply to such Person that would qualify as a Permitted Transferee *mutatis mutandis*.

**ARTICLE VIII<br>PROTECTIVE PROVISIONS**

Section 8.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Investor Member No Threshold Matters</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not cause or permit, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Investor Member (except that no such written consent shall be required to the extent that such matter is necessary to comply with applicable Law or Order):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;except pursuant to and in accordance with <u>Section 5.1</u>, (i) any non-*pro rata* distribution, repurchase or redemption of any equity interests issued by the Company or (ii) effecting any Membership Interest split, distribution or other recapitalization transaction that would alter Investor Member's respective Percentage Interest as of immediately prior to such transaction;

------

accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall not be considered an amendment to this Agreement and shall not require any Board or Member approval. Any failure or delay on the part of any Party in exercising any power or right hereunder shall not operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power hereunder or otherwise available at law or in equity.

Section 13.11&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Governing Law</u>. This Agreement, and any claim, action, suit, investigation or proceeding of any kind whatsoever, including a counterclaim, cross-claim or defense, regardless of the legal theory under which such liability or obligation may be sought to be imposed, whether sounding in contract or tort, or whether at law or in equity, or otherwise under any legal or equitable theory, that may be based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements executed and performed entirely within such State without regards to conflicts of law principles of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction that would cause the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware to apply.

Section 13.12&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Specific Performance</u>. The Parties agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary relief, even if available, shall not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that (a) the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof without proof of damages or otherwise, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement, and (b) the right of specific performance and other equitable relief is an integral part of this Agreement and the business and legal understandings between the Members with respect to the Company, and without that right, none of the Members would have entered into this Agreement.

Section 13.13&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Escalation; Arbitration</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In connection with any dispute (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, a dispute arising related to the discretionary exercise of any right of a Member (including consent

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;54

------

rights pursuant to <u>Article VIII</u>) granted to a Member, the Company or to the Board under, and in accordance with the terms of, this Agreement), controversy or claim among the Members relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Members will use their reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute within 30 days. If the dispute has not been resolved within such 30 day period, the Members will escalate the dispute to the respective senior officers, who will meet to discuss and use their reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute. If the Members remain unable to resolve the dispute within 30 days of the initial meeting of the senior officers or such later date as the Members subject to such dispute may agree, such dispute shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("<u>AAA</u>") utilizing its Commercial Arbitration Rules in effect as of the date the arbitration is commenced. The arbitration shall be conducted before a single arbitrator, if the Members can agree on the one arbitrator. If the Members cannot agree on a single arbitrator, there shall be a panel of three arbitrators with one chosen by each Member and the third arbitrator selected by the two Member-appointed arbitrators. If a Member fails to appoint an arbitrator within 30 days following a written request by another Member to do so or if the two Member-appointed arbitrators fail to agree upon the selection of a third arbitrator, as applicable, within 30 days following their appointment, the additional arbitrator shall be selected by the AAA pursuant to its applicable procedures. Each arbitrator shall be disinterested and have at least 20 years of experience with commercial matters. The arbitrator(s) shall have the power to award any appropriate remedy consistent with the objectives of the arbitration and subject to, and consistent with, all Laws and Orders applicable to the Company and its Subsidiaries (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the necessity of obtaining any requisite authorization, approval or consent of any Governmental Body necessary to implement the appropriate remedy). The decision of the one arbitrator or, if applicable, the majority of the three arbitrators shall be final and binding upon the Parties (subject only to limited review as required by applicable Law). Judgment upon the award of the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise enforced in any jurisdiction in any manner provided by applicable Law. The losing Party shall pay the prevailing Party's attorney's fees and costs and the costs associated with the arbitration, including expert fees and costs and the arbitrators' fees and costs; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that each Party shall bear its own fees and costs until the arbitrator(s) determine which, if any, Party is the prevailing Party and the amount that is due to such prevailing Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;All discussions, negotiations and proceedings under this <u>Section 13.13</u>, and all evidence given or discovered pursuant hereto, will be maintained in strict confidence by all Parties, except where disclosure is required by applicable Law, necessary to comply with any legal requirements of such Party or necessary or advisable in order for a Party to assert any legal rights or remedies, including the filing of a complaint with a court or, based on the advice of counsel, such disclosure is determined to be necessary or advisable under applicable securities Laws or the rules of any stock exchange on which any of such Party's securities are traded. Disclosure of the existence of any arbitration or of any award rendered therein may be made as part of any action in court for interim or provisional relief or to confirm or enforce such award.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Any settlement discussions occurring and negotiating positions taken by any Party in connection with the procedures under this <u>Section 13.13</u> will be subject to Rule 408

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The fact that the dispute resolution procedure specified in this <u>Section 13.13</u> has been or may be invoked will not excuse any Party from performing its obligations under this Agreement, and during the pendency of any such procedure, all Parties must continue to perform their respective obligations in good faith. In addition, in no event shall the fact that this provision has been invoked and the pendency of the proceedings limit, suspend, delay or waive any other rights and remedies provided in this Agreement to any Member.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Notwithstanding the agreement to arbitrate contained in this <u>Section 13.13</u>, in the event that any Party wishes to seek a temporary restraining order, a preliminary or temporary injunction, or other injunctive relief in connection with any claim, demand, cause of action, dispute, controversy, or other matter arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the alleged breach thereof, whether such claim sounds in contract, tort, or otherwise, at law or in equity, under state or federal law, whether provided by statute or the common law, each Party shall have the right to pursue such injunctive relief in court, rather than by arbitration. The Parties agree that such action for a temporary restraining order, a preliminary or temporary injunction, or other injunctive relief may be brought in the state or federal courts of Delaware, or in any other forum in which jurisdiction is appropriate.

Section 13.14&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Counterparts</u>.

Each of the Company and the requesting Member shall submit their view of the Fair Market Value of the Membership Interests or the relevant asset(s) to the Independent Evaluator (the Company's view being the original determination by the Board), and each party will receive copies of all information provided to the

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;56

Independent Evaluator by the other party. The Members shall request that the final Independent Evaluator's determination of the Fair Market Value of such Membership Interests or asset(s) be set forth in a detailed written report addressed to the Company and the requesting Member within 30 days following the Company's selection of such Independent Evaluator and such determination shall be final, conclusive and binding. In rendering its decision, the Independent Evaluator shall determine which of the positions of the Company and the requesting Member submitted to the Independent Evaluator is, in the aggregate, more accurate (which report shall include a worksheet setting forth the material calculations used in arriving at such determination), and, based on such determination, adopt either the Fair Market Value determined by the Company or the requesting Member. Any fees and expenses of the Independent Evaluator incurred in resolving the disputed matter(s) will be borne by the party whose positions were not adopted by the Independent Evaluator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board's determination of Fair Market Value under this Agreement shall be conclusive and relied upon by the Members in carrying out their obligations hereunder for any matter that, following determination of the Independent Evaluator, may be cured, unless and until the Independent Evaluator determines otherwise in accordance with this <u>Section 13.15</u>.
