(“Enersource”), Horizon Utilities Corporation (“Horizon Utilities”), and PowerStream Inc. (“PowerStream”) filed an application (the “MAADs Application”;EB-2016-0025) pursuant to the Handbook to Electricity Distributor and Transmitter Consolidations (the “MAADs Handbook”) seeking approval to amalgamate to form Alectra Inc., and for Alectra Inc. to purchase and amalgamate with Hydro One Brampton Networks Inc. (“Hydro One Brampton”) under section 86 of the Ontario Energy Board Act, 1998. Alectra Inc. is the parent of Alectra Utilities Corporation (“Alectra Utilities”). On December 8, 2016, the Ontario Energy Board (“OEB”) issued its Decision and Order in respect of the MAADs Application. In the MAADs Decision, the OEB granted the requested approvals. It also approved a rebasing deferral period of 10 years. On January 31, 2017, Alectra Utilities was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) by amalgamation of the legacy utilities: PowerStream; Enersource; and Horizon Utilities. On February 28, 2017, the Corporation acquired 100% of the shares of Hydro One Brampton. A subsequent application was filed pursuant to the MAADs Handbook on March 7, 2017 (EB-2018-0014) seeking to amalgamate Guelph Hydro Electric Systems Inc. (“Guelph Hydro”) with Alectra Utilities Corporation. The OEB granted the requested approval and a rebasing deferral period of 10 years in a Decision and Order issued on October 18, 2018. The amalgamation was completed on December 31, 2018. For the 2017 reporting year, Alectra Utilities filed its first set of RRR data and Scorecard Management Discussion and Analysis (“Scorecard MD&A”) as a merged entity. The 2019 Scorecard is Alectra’s first to include Guelph Hydro. The utility scorecard measures a utility’s performance over time and presents the five most recent years of available data for each performance measure. In 2019 Alectra Utilities’ performance exceeds each of the applicable industry-specific targets for each area of the Customer Focus component of the Scorecard. Alectra Utilities’ scores on the annual Customer Satisfaction Survey have steadily increased each year since its merger in 2017, signaling that Alectra is successfully implementing measures that meet the evolving needs of its customers. 2019 Scorecard MD&A Page 1 of 10 Alectra Utilities has experienced declining results in the Serious Electrical Incidents and System Reliability performance measures. Since 2014, legacy utilities and now Alectra Utilities have experienced a trend of worsening system reliability driven by a growing number of underground cable failures and the increasing impacts of adverse weather conditions. Alectra Utilities has developed investment plans to mitigate this negative reliability trend through underground system rehabilitation and renewal, as well as renewal of overhead systems prone to failure and outages due to adverse weather conditions. Alectra Utilities serves over 1 million customers across a 1,900 sq. km service territory spanning 17 communities including Alliston, Aurora, Barrie, Beeton, Brampton, Bradford, Guelph, Hamilton, Markham, Mississauga, Penetanguishene, Richmond Hill, Rockwood, St. Catharine’s, Thornton, Tottenham and Vaughan. Service Quality New Residential/Small Business Services Connected on Time The OEB’s Distribution System Code (“DSC”) requires electricity distributors to complete a connection for new service under 750 volts within five days after all applicable service conditions are satisfied. This service quality standard must be met at least 90% of the time on an annual basis. In 2019, Alectra Utilities connected 92.59% of 8,044 eligible low-voltage residential and small business customers to its system within the five-day timeline. Scheduled Appointments Met on Time The OEB’s DSC requires that electricity distributors offer to schedule an appointment within a window of time that is no greater than four hours. The electricity distributor must arrive for the appointment within the scheduled timeframe 90% of the time. Of 10,523 appointments scheduled in 2019 requiring the presence of the customer, Alectra Utilities met 98.75% of these appointments with its customers within this timeframe. The work requested by customers in this category includes connect or reconnect services, meter reads, and other necessary work as requested by customers. As shown on the Scorecard, Alectra Utilities exceeded the target in 2019 and the upward arrow indicates improvement of the five-year average performance, attributable to strong customer-focused business processes and improvements with scheduling practices. Telephone Calls Answered on Time 2019 Scorecard MD&A Page 2 of 10 The OEB’s DSC requires that electricity distributors answer calls within 30 seconds, 65% of the time. The performance of this measurement is influenced by the volume of customer calls that are received by the call centre and are driven by factors such as billing inquiries, customer move ins and outs, news about the electricity market in the media, conservation and demand management programs and power outages, among other things. In 2019, Alectra Utilities’ Customer Service Representatives (“CSR”) received 769,870 calls from its customers, as compared to 764,999 calls in 2018. This represents a 0.6% increase in call volumes. Alectra Utilities’ CSRs answered 75.78% of incoming calls within 30 seconds. This performance exceeds the OEB target. Customer Satisfaction First Contact Resolution First Contact Resolution refers to the ability to resolve a customer query within a single call, thereby eliminating the need for a customer to follow up with further calls. The OEB does not provide a specific metric for First Contact Resolution (“FCR”). Distributors are permitted discretion as to how they report this measure, and it is anticipated that the OEB will develop a standardized reporting structure in the future. In determining FCR results, Alectra Utilities assesses the number of calls addressed at first contact and also utilizes customer surveys regarding the quality of service received based on the last time a customer contacted the utility.

NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE August 11, 2011 Five Ontario electric utilities to partner on solar initiative Pilot project will measure conservation impact of using solar powered attic vents COLLINGWOOD, ON - Five Ontario electricity distribution companies are getting together to partner on an initiative that will test the effectiveness of using solar powered attic vents in helping to reduce the electricity consumption required to cool homes. The announcement was made today at a project launch event on Davis Street in Collingwood where representatives from Callus Power, PowerStream, Orangevillle Hydro, St Thomas Energy, Wasaga Beach Distribution, other key stakeholders and members of the media witnessed the unveiling, on the roof of a new home, two fully-installed solar powered attic vent units that were provided by the project's supplier, International Solar Solutions. A solar powered attic vent, also referred to as a solar powered roof vent, works during the day and has a solar panel which converts energy from the sun into electricity. This electricity operates a motor that drives a fan inside the vent. Attic ventilation is an important aspect in maintaining a healthy energy-efficient home. Venting cools a roof, extends the life of roof materials and helps to reduce the load on air conditioning systems. Callus Power, PowerStream and Wasaga Beach Distribution will operate the pilot in their respective service territories using a combination of installing solar powered attic vents on new houses being built by Devonleigh Homes and retrofitting houses in older subdivisions.

    February 13, 2020 IESO Engagement Independent Electricity System Operator 1600–120 Adelaide Street West Toronto, ON M5H 1T1 To Whom it May Concern: Re: Exploring Expanded DER Participation in the IESO-Administered Markets Part 2: Options and Considerations for Enabling DER Participation On October 17, 2019 the Independent Electricity System Operator (“IESO”) released the first in its series of white papers (the “Paper”) on exploring expanded Distributed Energy Resource (“DER”) participation in the IESO Administered Markets (“IAMs”). The Paper overviewed the ways in which DERs currently participate in the IAM, concluding that only directly participating generators, Demand Response (“DR”) and aggregated non-dispatchable DR are currently able to fully participate. The Paper also examined several barriers that prevent DERs from other types or forms of participation. On January 30, 2020, the IESO hosted a webinar to provide an overview of the next DER white paper and to introduce some of its high-level ideas and options to enhance DER participation that may be explored in the next Paper. The intention of the next Paper will be to include more detailed examination of participation models and options to address barriers identified in the first Paper. The IESO is seeking feedback from stakeholders on the options presented in the webinar in order to determine or guide which should be explored further. Alectra Utilities (“Alectra”) serves over one million customers across 1,800 sq. km of service territory, spanning 17 communities in Ontario, including Alliston, Aurora, Barrie, Beeton, Brampton, Bradford, Guelph, Hamilton, Markham, Mississauga, Penetanguishene, Richmond Hill, Rockford, St. Catharines, Thornton, Tottenham and Vaughan.
