RECITALS
WHEREAS AltaLink Management Ltd., in its capacity as general partner of AltaLink, L.P., as Borrower, the Agent and the other parties hereto are parties to a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement made as of December 17, 2015 as amended by a First Amending Agreement dated as of December 15, 2016, a Second Amending Agreement dated as of December 14, 2017 and a Third Amending Agreement dated as of April 19, 2018 (the “Credit Agreement”);
AND WHEREAS the Borrower, the General Partner, the Agent and the Lenders have agreed to amend certain provisions of the Credit Agreement in the manner and on the terms and conditions provided for herein.
NOW THEREFORE for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
 
DEFINITIONS
1.1    Definitions
All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Credit Agreement.
ARTICLE 2
AMENDMENTS
2.1    Amendments to Credit Agreement
The Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
(a)    The definition of “Maturity Date” contained in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
“Maturity Date” means December 14, 2023, as may be extended pursuant to Subsection 5.2(b).
(b)    Subsection 2.9(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
		
	(a)
	LIBOR Loans shall only be made available to the Borrower to the extent the Agent determines (which determination shall be made in good faith and shall be conclusive and binding) that U.S. Dollars are available to the Lenders on the London interbank eurocurrency market. The Agent will use all reasonable efforts to coordinate the obtaining of U.S. Dollars on the London interbank eurocurrency 

market and to quote LIBOR Rates on request of the Borrower from time to time. If at any time prior to the proposed commencement of a LIBOR Interest Period the Agent shall determine (which determination shall be made in good faith and shall be conclusive and binding) that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank eurocurrency market or the position of the Majority Lenders therein (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate to be applicable during such LIBOR Interest Period, (ii) the proposed LIBOR Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding or maintaining such LIBOR Loans, or (iii) U.S. Dollars for such LIBOR Interest Period are not readily available to the Lenders, as the case may be, in the London interbank eurocurrency market, then the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower prior to 10:30 a.m. on the day which is two (2) Business Days in advance of the proposed commencement of such LIBOR Interest Period, and such Loan, if not then outstanding as a LIBOR Loan, shall not be made and, if then outstanding as a LIBOR Loan, the Borrower shall then give a Notice of Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.4 converting the LIBOR Loan on the expiration of the then applicable LIBOR Interest Period to another Accommodation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the LIBOR Rate is not available for any reason and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, then the “LIBOR Rate” for such LIBOR Interest Period shall be (x) a comparable successor or alternative interbank rate for deposits in U.S. Dollars that is, at such time, broadly accepted by the syndicated loan market in lieu of the “LIBOR Rate” and is reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the Agent or (y) if no such broadly accepted comparable successor or alternative interbank rate exists at such time, a successor or alternative index rate as the Agent and the Borrower may determine.
(c)    Section 3.5 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following paragraph after the first paragraph therein:
The Borrower and the General Partner acknowledge and confirm that this Section 3.5 satisfies the requirements of Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada) to the extent it applies to the expression or statement of any interest payable under this Agreement and that each of the Borrower and the General Partner is able to calculate the yearly rate or percentage of interest payable under this Agreement based upon the methodology set out in this Section 3.5. The Borrower and the General Partner each agree not to plead or assert, whether by way of defence or otherwise, in any proceeding relating to this Agreement, that the interest payable hereunder and the calculation of interest herein have not been adequately disclosed to them, whether pursuant to Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada) or any other Applicable Law or legal principle.
(d)    Subsection 5.2(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
		
	(b)
	By notice in writing to the Agent in the form of Schedule 3 (a “Notice of Extension”) given not more than 90 and not less than 45 days prior to each anniversary date of 

the date of this Agreement, the Borrower may request each Lender to extend the Maturity Date of such Lender for an additional period of 365 days.  The Lenders agree that they shall give or withhold their consent in a timely manner so that the Agent may provide a response to the Borrower to the Notice of Extension within thirty (30) days from the date of such receipt, provided that the decision of any Lender to extend the Maturity Date in respect of such Lender shall be at the sole discretion of such Lender.  The Borrower shall be entitled to replace any Lender which dissents in response to the Notice of Extension (a “Dissenting Lender”) with another existing Lender or Lenders without the consent of any of the remaining Lenders; or to replace a Dissenting Lender with any financial institution which is not an existing Lender with the consent of the Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.  The Borrower shall be entitled, with the unanimous consent of the Lenders who have agreed to extend, to permanently cancel the Commitment of any Dissenting Lender and repay such Dissenting Lender, at which time the Committed Amount shall be permanently reduced by the amount of such Commitment.
		
	(e)
	Section 13.3 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the notice details with respect to the Agent therein and replacing such notice details with the following:

If to the Agent:
The Bank of Nova Scotia        
 
Corporate Banking    
 
Suite 1700, 225 6th Avenue, S.W. 
Calgary, AB T2P 1N2
Attention:    Director    
 
Facsimile:    403.221.6497    
(f)    Schedule 3 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the reference therein to “three hundred and sixty-four (364)” and replacing such reference with “three hundred and sixty-five (365)”.

SUMMARY OF KEY TERMS OF COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS 
WITH PACIFICORP NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS 

PacifiCorp's named executive officers (other than its Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, William J. Fehrman) each receive an annual salary and participate in health insurance and other benefit plans on the same basis as other employees, as well as certain other compensation and benefit plans described in PacifiCorp's Annual Report on Form 10-K. Mr. Fehrman is employed by PacifiCorp's parent company, Berkshire Hathaway Energy Company ("BHE") and is not directly compensated by PacifiCorp. PacifiCorp reimburses BHE for the cost of Mr. Fehrman's time spent on PacifiCorp matters, including compensation paid to him by BHE, pursuant to an intercompany administrative services agreement among BHE and its subsidiaries. 

The named executive officers are also eligible to receive a cash incentive award under PacifiCorp's Annual Incentive Plan ("AIP"). The AIP provides for a discretionary annual cash award that is determined on a subjective basis and paid in December. In addition to the AIP, the named executive officers are eligible to receive discretionary cash performance awards periodically during the year to reward the accomplishment of significant non-recurring tasks or projects. The named executive officers are participants in PacifiCorp's Long-Term Incentive Partnership Plan ("LTIP"). A copy of the LTIP is incorporated by reference to Exhibit 10.10 to PacifiCorp's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Base salary for named executive officers for PacifiCorp's fiscal year ending December 31, 2019 (excluding Mr. Fehrman) is shown in the following table:
