NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

1.    DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

Hydro One Limited (Hydro One or the Company) was incorporated on August 31, 2015, under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). On October 31, 2015, the Company acquired Hydro One Inc., a company previously wholly-owned by the Province of Ontario (Province). At June 30, 2022, the Province held approximately 47.2% (December 31, 2021 - 47.2%) of the common shares of Hydro One. The principal businesses of Hydro One are the transmission and distribution of electricity to customers within Ontario.

Earnings for interim periods may not be indicative of results for the year due to the impact of seasonal weather conditions on customer demand and market pricing.

Rate Setting

The Company's transmission business consists of the transmission system operated by Hydro One Inc.’s subsidiaries, Hydro One Networks Inc. (Hydro One Networks) and Hydro One Sault Ste. Marie LP (HOSSM), as well as an approximately 66% interest in B2M Limited Partnership, a limited partnership between Hydro One and the Saugeen Ojibway Nation, and an approximately 55% interest in Niagara Reinforcement Limited Partnership, a limited partnership between Hydro One and Six Nations of the Grand River Development Corporation and the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation.

Hydro One’s distribution business consists of the distribution system operated by Hydro One Inc.'s subsidiaries, Hydro One Networks and Hydro One Remote Communities Inc. (Hydro One Remote Communities).

Deferred Tax Asset (DTA)

On March 7, 2019, the Ontario Energy Board (OEB) issued its reconsideration decision (DTA Decision) with respect to Hydro One's rate-setting treatment of the benefits of the DTA resulting from the transition from the payments in lieu of tax regime to tax payments under the federal and provincial tax regimes. On July 16, 2020, the Ontario Divisional Court rendered its decision on the Company's appeal of the OEB's DTA Decision. On April 8, 2021, the OEB rendered its decision and order regarding the recovery of the DTA amounts allocated to ratepayers for the 2017 to 2022 period (DTA Implementation Decision). See Note 11 - Regulatory Assets and Liabilities for additional details.

Hydro One Remote Communities

On November 3, 2021, Hydro One Remote Communities filed an application with the OEB seeking approval for a 2.2% increase to 2021 base rates, effective May 1, 2022. The application was subsequently updated to request a 3.3% increase to 2021 base rates to reflect the OEB’s annually updated inflation parameters for electricity distributors for 2022. On March 24, 2022, the OEB approved the application for rates and other charges which became effective on May 1, 2022.

2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Consolidation and Presentation

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (Consolidated Financial Statements) include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Basis of Accounting

These Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared and presented in accordance with United States (US) Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for interim financial statements and in Canadian dollars.

The accounting policies applied are consistent with those outlined in Hydro One's annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, with the exception of the adoption of new accounting standards as described in Note 3. These Consolidated Financial Statements reflect adjustments, that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect fairly the financial position and results of operations for the respective periods. These Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

6.    INCOME TAXES

As a rate regulated utility company, the Company recovers income taxes from its ratepayers based on estimated current income tax expense in respect of its regulated business. The amounts of deferred income taxes related to regulated operations which are considered to be more likely-than-not to be recoverable from, or refundable to, ratepayers in future periods are recognized as deferred income tax regulatory assets or liabilities, with an offset to deferred income tax recovery or expense, respectively. The Company’s consolidated tax expense or recovery for the period includes all current and deferred income tax expenses for the period net of the regulated accounting offset to deferred income tax expense arising from temporary differences to be recovered from, or refunded to, customers in future rates. Thus, the Company’s income tax expense or recovery differs from the amount that would have been recorded using the combined Canadian federal and Ontario statutory income tax rate.

The reconciliation between the statutory and the effective tax rates is provided as follows:

	Three months ended June 30		Six months ended June 30
(millions of dollars)	2022	2021	2022	2021
Income before income tax expense	325	266	716	562

---	---	---	---	---	---	---	---	---

1 Pursuant to the DTA Implementation Decision, the 2021 impact represents the sharing of tax deductions from deferred tax asset (DTA Sharing) given to ratepayers, offset by the recovery of DTA amounts previously shared effective July 1, 2021. For 2022, the impact represents the recovery of DTA amounts previously shared from ratepayers. See Note 11 - Regulatory Assets and Liabilities.

16.    FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

Non-Derivative Financial Assets and Liabilities

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, due from related parties, short-term notes payable, accounts payable, and due to related parties are representative of fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Fair Value Measurements of Long-Term Debt

The fair values and carrying values of the Company’s long-term debt at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are as follows:

	June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
As at (millions of dollars)	Carrying Value	Fair Value	Carrying Value	Fair Value
Long-term debt, including current portion	13,018	12,293	13,620	15,573

Fair Value Measurements of Derivative Instruments

Fair Value Hedges

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Hydro One Inc. had no fair value hedges.

Cash Flow Hedges

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Hydro One Inc. had a total of $800 million in pay-fixed, receive-floating interest-rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges. These cash flow hedges are intended to offset the variability of interest rates on the issuances of short-term commercial paper between January 9, 2020 and March 9, 2023.

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no derivative instruments classified as undesignated contracts.

Fair Value Hierarchy

The fair value hierarchy of financial assets and liabilities at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is as follows:

As at June 30, 2022 (millions of dollars)	Carrying<br>Value	Fair<br> Value	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3
Assets:
Derivative instruments (Note 9)
Cash flow hedges, including current portion	6	6	—	6	—
Liabilities:
Long-term debt, including current portion	13,018	12,293	—	12,293	—		As at December 31, 2021 (millions of dollars)	Carrying<br>Value	Fair<br> Value	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3
---	---	---	---	---	---
Liabilities:
Long-term debt, including current portion	13,620	15,573	—	15,573	—
Derivative instruments (Note 13)
Cash flow hedges, including current portion	8	8	—	8	—
	13,628	15,581	—	15,581	—

The fair value of the long-term debt is based on unadjusted period-end market prices for the same or similar debt of the same remaining maturities.

There were no transfers between any of the fair value levels during the six months ended June 30, 2022 or the year ended December 31, 2021.

Risk Management

Exposure to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk arises in the normal course of the Company’s business.

Market Risk

Market risk refers primarily to the risk of loss which results from changes in values, foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The Company is exposed to fluctuations in interest rates, as its regulated return on equity is derived using a formulaic approach that takes anticipated interest rates into account. The Company is not currently exposed to material commodity price risk or material foreign exchange risk.

HYDRO ONE LIMITED

NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) (continued)

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

The Company uses a combination of fixed and variable-rate debt to manage the mix of its debt portfolio. The Company also uses derivative financial instruments to manage interest-rate risk. The Company may utilize interest-rate swaps designated as fair value hedges as a means to manage its interest rate exposure to achieve a lower cost of debt. The Company may also utilize interest-rate derivative instruments, such as cash flow hedges, to manage its exposure to short-term interest rates or to lock in interest-rate levels on forecasted financing.

A hypothetical 100 basis points increase in interest rates associated with variable-rate debt would not have resulted in a significant decrease in Hydro One’s net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the unrealized gain or loss, after tax, on the derivative instrument is recorded as other comprehensive income (OCI) or other comprehensive loss (OCL) and is reclassified to results of operations in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects results of operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, a $4 million after-tax unrealized gain (2021 - $1 million), $5 million before-tax (2021 - $1 million), was recorded in OCI, and less than $1 million after-tax realized loss (2021 - $2 million), $1 million before-tax (2021 - $3 million), was reclassified to financing charges. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, a $8 million after-tax unrealized gain (2021 - $2 million), $11 million before-tax (2021 - $3 million), was recorded in OCI, and a $2 million after-tax realized loss (2021- $4 million), $4 million before-tax (2021 - $6 million), was reclassified to financing charges. This resulted in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) of $4 million related to cash flow hedges at June 30, 2022 (December 31, 2021 - accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL)- $6 million). The Company estimates that the amount of AOCI, after tax, related to cash flow hedges to be reclassified to results of operations in the next 12 months is $4 million. Actual amounts reclassified to results of operations depend on the interest rate risk in effect until the derivative contracts mature. For all forecasted transactions, at June 30, 2022, the maximum term over which the Company is hedging exposures to the variability of cash flows is less than one year.

The Pension Plan manages market risk by diversifying investments in accordance with the Pension Plan’s Statement of Investment Policies and Procedures. Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that changes in interest rates will affect the fair value of the Pension Plan’s financial instruments. In addition, changes in interest rates can also impact discount rates which impact the valuation of the pension and post-retirement and post-employment liabilities. Currency risk is the risk that the value of the Pension Plan’s financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign currencies relative to the Canadian dollar. Other price risk is the risk that the value of the Pension Plan’s investments in equity securities will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices, other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk. All three factors may contribute to changes in values of the Pension Plan investments. See Note 17 - Pension and Post-Retirement and Post-Employment Benefits for further details.

Credit Risk

Financial assets create a risk that a counterparty will fail to discharge an obligation, causing a financial loss. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no significant concentrations of credit risk with respect to any class of financial assets. The Company’s revenue is earned from a broad base of customers. As a result, Hydro One did not earn a material amount of revenue from any single customer. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there was no material accounts receivable balance due from any single customer.

At June 30, 2022, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $72 million (December 31, 2021 - $56 million). The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects the Company's current lifetime expected credit losses (CECL) for all accounts receivable balances, which are based on historical overdue balances, customer payments and write-offs. At June 30, 2022, approximately 4% (December 31, 2021 - 5%) of the Company’s net accounts receivable were outstanding for more than 60 days.

Hydro One manages its counterparty credit risk through various techniques including (i) entering into transactions with highly rated counterparties, (ii) limiting total exposure levels with individual counterparties, (iii) entering into master agreements which enable net settlement and the contractual right of offset, and (iv) monitoring the financial condition of counterparties. The Company monitors current credit exposure to counterparties on both an individual and an aggregate basis. The Company’s credit risk for accounts receivable is limited to the carrying amounts on the consolidated balance sheets.

Derivative financial instruments result in exposure to credit risk since there is a risk of counterparty default. The maximum credit exposure of derivative contracts, before collateral, is represented by the fair value of contracts in an asset position at the reporting date. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the counterparty credit risk exposure on the fair value of these interest-rate swap contracts was not material. At June 30, 2022, Hydro One’s credit exposure for all derivative instruments, and applicable payables and receivables, was with two financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings as counterparties.

The Pension Plan manages its counterparty credit risk with respect to bonds by investing in investment-grade corporate and government bonds and with respect to derivative instruments by transacting only with highly rated financial institutions and by ensuring that exposure is diversified across counterparties.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk refers to the Company’s ability to meet its financial obligations as they come due. Hydro One meets its short-term operating liquidity requirements using cash and cash equivalents on hand, funds from operations, the issuance of commercial paper, and the Operating Credit Facilities. The short-term liquidity under the commercial paper program, the Operating Credit Facilities, and anticipated levels of funds from operations are expected to be sufficient to fund the Company’s operating requirements. The Company's currently available liquidity is also expected to be sufficient to address any reasonably foreseeable impacts that the COVID-19 pandemic may have on the Company’s cash requirements.

In June 2022, Hydro One Inc. filed a short form base shelf prospectus in connection with its MTN Program, which has a maximum authorized principal amount of notes issuable of $4,000 million, and expires in July 2024. At June 30, 2022, $4,000 million remained available for issuance under the MTN Program prospectus.

In August 2020, Hydro One filed the Universal Base Shelf Prospectus with securities regulatory authorities in Canada. The Universal Base Shelf Prospectus allows Hydro One to offer, from time to time in one or more public offerings, up to $2,000 million of debt, equity or other securities, or any combination thereof, and expires in September 2022. At June 30, 2022, $1,575 million remained available for issuance under the Universal Base Shelf Prospectus.

In December 2020, HOHL filed a short form base shelf prospectus (US Debt Shelf Prospectus) with securities regulatory authorities in Canada and the US to replace a previous prospectus that expired in December 2020. The US Debt Shelf Prospectus allows HOHL to offer, from time to time in one or more public offerings, up to US$3,000 million of debt securities, unconditionally guaranteed by Hydro One, expiring in January 2023. At June 30, 2022, no securities have been issued under the US Debt Shelf Prospectus.

The Pension Plan’s short-term liquidity is provided through cash and cash equivalents, contributions, investment income and proceeds from investment transactions. In the event that investments must be sold quickly to meet current obligations, the majority of the Pension Plan’s assets are invested in securities that are traded in an active market and can be readily disposed of as liquidity needs arise.

1    The expected long-term rate of return on pension plan assets for the year ending December 31, 2022 is 6.00% (2021 - 5.40%).

2    The Company accounts for pension costs consistent with their inclusion in OEB-approved rates. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, pension costs of $21 million (2021 - $20 million) and $39 million (2021 - $37 million), respectively were attributed to labour, of which $9 million (2021 - $8 million) and $16 million (2021 - $14 million), respectively, was charged to operations, and $12 million (2021 - $12 million) and $23 million (2021 - $23 million), respectively, was capitalized as part of the cost of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.

3 In the 2020-2022 Transmission Decision, the OEB confirmed the recovery of the non-service cost component of post-retirement and post-employment benefits as part of operation, maintenance and administration costs for the Company's transmission business. Prior to the decision, these costs were tracked in a regulatory asset. As a result, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, additional other post-retirement and post-employment costs of $9 million (2021 - $8 million) attributed to labour were charged to operations.

Future Transfers from Other Plans

Hydro One and Inergi LP agreed to transfer the employment of certain Inergi LP employees (Transferred Employees) to Hydro One Networks. Employees related to the Information Technology Operations, Finance and Accounting, Payroll, Source to Pay, Settlements and certain Shared Services functions transferred over a period ending January 1, 2022. The Transferred Employees who are participants in the Inergi LP Pension Plan (Inergi Plan) became participants in the Hydro One Pension Plan upon transfer to Hydro One Networks. Subject to all necessary regulatory approvals, the assets and liabilities of the Inergi Plan will transfer to the Plan. The values of assets and liabilities of the Inergi Plan to be transferred to the Plan will be determined at the date of transfer, which is expected to occur sometime in 2023. Inergi and Hydro One Networks also agreed to transfer OPEB liabilities related to the Transferred Employees to Hydro One’s post-retirement and post-employment benefit plans.

On March 1, 2021, Transferred Employees associated with information technology operations (ITO Employees) transferred to Hydro One Networks, and the transfer of the OPEB liability of $28 million related to the ITO Employees was completed. The liability was recorded as a post-retirement and post-employment benefit liability with an offset to OCL, and cash totaling $27 million was transferred to Hydro One and recorded as an asset with an offset to OCI. Both the OCI resulting from the transfer of the cash asset and the OCL resulting from the transfer of the other post-retirement benefit liability are being recognized in net income over the expected average remaining service lifetime (EARSL) of the ITO Employees.

On November 1, 2021, Transferred Employees associated with source to pay operations (S2P Employees) transferred to Hydro One Networks, and the transfer of the OPEB liability of $6 million related to the S2P Employees was completed. The liability was recorded as a post-retirement and post-employment benefit liability with an offset to OCL, and cash totaling $6 million was transferred to Hydro One and recorded as an asset with an offset to OCI. Both the OCI resulting from the transfer of the cash asset and the OCL resulting from the transfer of the other post-retirement benefit liability are being recognized in net income over the EARSL of the S2P Employees.

The transfer of Finance and Accounting, Payroll and certain Shared Services functions occurred on January 1, 2022 and the transfer of the OPEB liability of $9 million related to these Employees was completed in the first quarter. The liability was recorded as a post-retirement and post-employment benefit liability with an offset to OCL, and cash totaling $10 million was transferred to Hydro One and recorded as an asset with an offset to OCI. Both the OCI resulting from the transfer of the cash asset and the OCL resulting from the transfer of the other post-retirement benefit liability are being recognized in net income over the EARSL of the Finance and Accounting, Payroll and certain Shared Services employees.

OPG has provided a $2.5 million guarantee to Hydro One related to the OCN Guarantee.

26.    SEGMENTED REPORTING

Hydro One has three reportable segments:

•The Transmission Segment, which comprises the transmission of high voltage electricity across the province, interconnecting local distribution companies and certain large directly connected industrial customers throughout the Ontario electricity grid;

•The Distribution Segment, which comprises the delivery of electricity to end customers and certain other municipal electricity distributors; and

•Other Segment, which includes certain corporate activities, investments including a joint venture that owns and operates electric vehicle fast charging stations across Ontario under the Ivy Charging Network brand, and the operations of the Company’s telecommunications business. The Other Segment includes a portion of the DTA which arose from the revaluation of the tax bases of Hydro One’s assets to fair market value when the Company transitioned from the provincial payments in lieu of tax regime to the federal tax regime at the time of Hydro One’s initial public offering in 2015. This DTA is not required to be shared with ratepayers, the Company considers it not to be part of the regulated transmission and distribution segment assets, and it is included in the other segment.

The designation of segments has been based on a combination of regulatory status and the nature of the services provided. Operating segments of the Company are determined based on information used by the chief operating decision-maker in deciding how to allocate resources and evaluate the performance of each of the segments. The Company evaluates segment performance based on income before financing charges and income tax expense from continuing operations (excluding certain allocated corporate governance costs).

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Income

Net income attributable to common shareholders of Hydro One for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 of $255 million is an increase of $17 million, or 7.1%, from the prior year. Significant influences on net income attributable to common shareholders of Hydro One included:

•higher revenues, net of purchased power,1 resulting from:

•an increase in transmission revenues due to Ontario Energy Board (OEB)-approved 2022 transmission rates and higher peak demand; and

•an increase in distribution revenues, net of purchased power,1 mainly due to OEB-approved 2022 distribution rates.

•lower OM&A costs as lower corporate support costs and lower work program expenditures were partially offset by a higher allowance for doubtful accounts.

•higher depreciation, amortization and asset removal costs due to growth in capital assets as the Company continues to place new assets in-service, consistent with its ongoing capital investment program, as well as higher asset removal costs primarily resulting from storm restoration efforts.

•higher financing charges attributable to the recognition of carrying charges associated with the recovery of deferred tax asset (DTA) amounts previously shared with ratepayers (DTA Recovery Amounts) pursuant to the OEB's decision in April 2021 (DTA Implementation Decision) in the second quarter of 2021.

•higher income tax expense primarily attributable to:

•higher pre-tax earnings adjusted for the DTA Implementation Decision; largely offset by

•higher deductible timing differences compared to the prior year.

Revenue was also positively impacted by the DTA Implementation Decision. In its DTA Implementation Decision, the OEB approved recovery of the DTA amounts allocated to ratepayers and included in customer rates for the 2017 to 2021 period plus carrying charges over a two-year recovery period commencing on July 1, 2021. In addition, the DTA Implementation Decision required that Hydro One adjust the transmission revenue requirement and base distribution rates effective January 1, 2022 to eliminate any further tax savings flowing to customers. These impacts are offset by a higher tax expense and are therefore net income neutral in the period. See section "Regulation" for additional details.

Net income attributable to common shareholders of Hydro One for the six months ended June 30, 2022 of $565 million is an increase of $59 million, or 11.7%, from the prior year. Year-to-date results were impacted by similar factors as noted above.

EPS

EPS was $0.43 and $0.94 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to EPS of $0.40 and $0.85 in 2021. The increase in EPS was primarily driven by the impact of higher earnings year over year, as noted above.

1 Revenues, net of purchased power, is a non-GAAP financial measure. See section “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

Transmission Revenues

Transmission revenues increased by 15.2% during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to the following:

•recovery of DTA amounts previously shared with ratepayers and the adjustment to transmission revenue requirement effective January 1, 2022 to cease sharing of DTA amounts going forward, pursuant to the DTA Implementation Decision;

•higher peak demand; and

•higher revenues resulting from OEB-approved 2022 rates.

Transmission revenues increased by 15.5% during the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to similar factors as noted above.

Distribution Revenues, Net of Purchased Power2

Distribution revenues, net of purchased power,2 increased by 8.7% during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to the following:

•higher revenues resulting from OEB-approved 2022 rates; and

•recovery of DTA amounts previously shared with ratepayers and the adjustment to base distribution rates effective January 1, 2022 to cease sharing of DTA amounts going forward, pursuant to the DTA Implementation Decision.

Distribution revenues, net of purchased power,2 increased by 9.0% during the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to similar factors as noted above.

Transmission OM&A costs decreased by 4.0% and 1.5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, primarily due to:

•lower work program expenditures.

Distribution OM&A Costs

Distribution OM&A costs decreased by 2.3% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to:

•lower corporate support costs resulting from higher capital expenditures in the current period; and

•integration costs incurred in the prior year; partially offset by

•a higher allowance for doubtful accounts; and

•higher work program expenditures including increased forecast environmental expenses, partially offset by lower vegetation management costs.

Distribution OM&A costs during the six months ended June 30, 2022, remained in-line with the same period in the prior year largely due to similar factors noted above.

Depreciation, Amortization and Asset Removal Costs

Depreciation, amortization and asset removal costs increased by $33 million and $47 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, primarily due to growth in capital assets as the Company continues to place new assets in-service, consistent with its ongoing capital investment program, as well as higher asset removal costs primarily resulting from storm-related asset replacements.

Financing Charges

Financing charges increased by $15 million and $16 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, primarily due to:

•the recognition of carrying charges associated with the DTA Recovery Amounts pursuant to the DTA Implementation Decision in the second quarter of 2021; and

•higher weighted-average interest rates on short-term notes.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $68 million and $147 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to $26 million and $52 million in the comparable periods last year. The $42 million and $95 million increase in income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, was primarily attributable to:

•tax expense relating to the DTA Implementation Decision which is offset by a corresponding increase in revenue and is net income neutral; as well as

•higher pre-tax earnings adjusted for the DTA Implementation Decision; partially offset by

•higher deductible timing differences compared to the prior year.

The Company realized an effective tax rate (ETR) of approximately 20.9% and 20.5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to approximately 9.8% and 9.3% realized in the same periods last year. The increase in each respective period was primarily attributable to the impacts of the DTA Implementation Decision.

1    Revenues, net of purchased power is a non-GAAP financial measure. See section “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

2    Earnings coverage ratio is a non-GAAP ratio. Non-GAAP ratios do not have a standardized meaning under GAAP, which is used to prepare the Company’s financial statements and might not be comparable to similar financial measures presented by other entities. See section “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of this non-GAAP ratio and its component elements.

Variations in revenues and net income over the quarters are primarily due to the impact of seasonal weather conditions on customer demand and market pricing, as well as timing of regulatory decisions.

CAPITAL INVESTMENTS

The Company makes capital investments to maintain the safety, reliability and integrity of its transmission and distribution system assets and to provide for the ongoing growth and modernization required to meet the expanding and evolving needs of its customers and the electricity market. This is achieved through a combination of sustaining capital investments, which are required to support the continued operation of Hydro One’s existing assets, and development capital investments, which involve additions to both existing assets and large-scale projects such as new transmission lines and transmission stations.

1 The Lakeshore Transmission Station and Chatham to Lakeshore Transmission Line projects were previously included as part of the Leamington Area Transmission Reinforcement Project. The Chatham to Lakeshore Transmission Line project includes the line and associated facilities and is further discussed in section “Other Developments - Supporting Critical Infrastructure in Southwestern Ontario”.

2 Due to a revised timeline of project activities, the East-West Tie Station Expansion project is being placed in-service in phases, with the first phase placed in-service in 2021. Hydro One expects that a significant portion of the project will be placed in-service in 2022, with final project in-service expected in 2023.

3 The estimated cost of the Waasigan Transmission Line relates to the development phase of the project and the anticipated in-service date reflects the anticipated completion date of the development phase only. On May 4, 2022, Hydro One entered into an agreement with First Nations communities that provides them the opportunity to acquire 50% ownership in the project. Completion of the line remains subject to stakeholder consultation and regulatory approvals.

4 The estimated cost of the St. Clair Transmission Line relates to the development phase of the project and the anticipated in-service date reflects the anticipated completion date of the development phase only. Completion of the line remains subject to stakeholder consultation and regulatory approvals.

5 The scope and timing of these Southwestern Ontario transmission reinforcements are currently under review.

Future Capital Investments

The Company estimates future capital investments based on management’s expectations of the amount of capital expenditures that will be required to provide transmission and distribution services that are efficient, reliable, and provide value for customers, consistent with the OEB’s Renewed Regulatory Framework.

The 2022 to 2027 capital estimates differ from prior disclosures, reflecting the refined estimates of the Chatham by Lakeshore Line filed with the OEB on May 9, 2022 through a leave-to-construct application (see section "Other Developments - Supporting Critical Infrastructure in Southwestern Ontario" for further details) as well as an updated regional and system growth outlook which includes capital expenditures associated with restoration efforts of the storm in May 2022. The projections and timing of transmission and distribution expenditures included in Hydro One's rate application for years 2023 to 2027 are subject to approval of the OEB.

The following tables summarize Hydro One’s annual projected capital investments for 2022 to 2027 by business segment and by category:

By business segment: (millions of dollars)	2022	2023	2024	2025	2026	2027

1 Figures include investments in certain development projects of Hydro One Networks not included in the investment plan filed in support of the Joint Rate Application (JRAP).

2 "Other" capital expenditures include investments in fleet, real estate, IT, and operations technology and related functions.

3 On March 29, 2021, the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) requested Hydro One initiate work to develop and construct a new transmission line between Chatham and Lambton (the St Clair Line) to support agricultural growth in Southwestern Ontario. On March 31, 2022, the Minister of Energy directed the OEB to amend Hydro One Networks' transmission licence to require it to develop and seek approvals for this and three other priority transmission lines to meet growing demand in Southwestern Ontario (see section “Other Developments”). The future capital investments presented do not include capital expenditures of the three additional lines, as Hydro One is currently evaluating the scope and timing of this work.

Cash provided by operating activities

Cash from operating activities increased by $209 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021. The increase was impacted by various factors, including the following:

•increase in net working capital deficiency primarily attributable to higher accrued liabilities mainly related to the May storm, lower accounts receivable balances, and higher payables to embedded generators, partially offset by lower cost of power payable to the IESO and higher receivables from the IESO associated with rebates for green energy purchases.

•higher pre-tax earnings; and

•the impacts of the DTA Implementation Decision recognized in the quarter.

Cash from operating activities increased by $135 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was impacted by various factors, including the following:

•higher pre-tax earnings; and

•the impacts of the DTA Implementation Decision recognized in the first six months of the year; partially offset by

•changes to certain regulatory accounts; and

•decrease in net working capital deficiency primarily attributable to higher receivables from the IESO associated with provincial funding programs, partially offset by higher cost of power payable to the IESO due to a higher Global Adjustment rate.

Cash provided by (used in) financing activities

Cash provided by financing activities decreased by $119 million and cash used in financing activities decreased by $44 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to 2021. This was impacted by various factors, including the following:

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCING STRATEGY

Short-term liquidity is provided through FFO,3 Hydro One Inc.’s commercial paper program, and the Company’s consolidated bank credit facilities. Under the commercial paper program, Hydro One Inc. is authorized to issue up to $2,300 million in short-term notes with a term to maturity of up to 365 days.

At June 30, 2022, Hydro One Inc. had $1,432 million in commercial paper borrowings outstanding, compared to $1,045 million outstanding at December 31, 2021. The Company also has revolving bank credit facilities (Operating Credit Facilities) with a total available balance of $2,550 million at June 30, 2022. In January 2022, Hydro One successfully amended its Operating Credit Facilities to incorporate environmental, social and governance targets. The facilities now include a pricing adjustment which can increase or decrease Hydro One’s cost of funding based on its performance on certain Sustainability Performance Measures, which are related to Hydro One's sustainability goals. On June 1, 2022, the maturity date for the Operating Credit Facilities was extended from 2026 to 2027. No amounts were drawn on the Operating Credit Facilities at June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021. The Company may use the Operating Credit Facilities for working capital and general corporate purposes. The short-term liquidity under the commercial paper program, the Operating Credit Facilities, available cash on hand and anticipated levels of FFO3 are expected to be sufficient to fund the Company’s operating requirements.

At June 30, 2022, the Company had long-term debt outstanding in the principal amount of $13,053 million, which included $425 million of long-term debt issued by Hydro One, $12,495 million of long-term debt issued by Hydro One Inc., and long-term debt in the principal amount of $133 million issued by HOSSM. The long-term debt issued by Hydro One was issued under its short form base shelf prospectus (Universal Base Shelf Prospectus), as further described below. The majority of long-term debt issued by Hydro One Inc. has been issued under its Medium Term Note (MTN) Program, as further described below. The Company's total long-term debt consists of notes and debentures that mature between 2023 and 2064, and at June 30, 2022, had a weighted-average term to maturity of approximately 15.0 years (December 31, 2021 - 14.8 years) and a weighted-average coupon rate of 3.8% (December 31, 2021 - 3.8%).

REGULATION

Electricity Rates - Joint Rate Application

In March 2018, the OEB issued a letter (OEB Letter) requesting Hydro One file a single application for distribution rates and transmission revenue requirement for the period from 2023 to 2027. The OEB Letter had indicated that Hydro One Remote Communities should be included in the single application, however, this requirement was later removed by the OEB.

On August 5, 2021, Hydro One Networks filed a custom JRAP for 2023-2027. The JRAP includes a proposed investment plan supporting the transmission and distribution revenue requirements. On March 31, 2022, Hydro One Networks filed updated evidence reflecting the impacts of updated inflation assumptions on the proposed investment plan as well as updated load forecasts. A decision is anticipated in the first quarter of 2023. The following table summarizes the key elements of Hydro One Networks' updated JRAP evidence filed with the OEB:

	Hydro One Networks - Transmission		Hydro One Networks - Distribution
Year	Rate Base<br> (Forecast)	Revenue<br><br>Requirement1	Rate Base<br> (Forecast)	Revenue<br><br>Requirement1
2023	$14,612 million	$1,849 million	$9,395 million	$1,669 million
2024	$15,517 million	$1,968 million	$10,031 million	$1,753 million
2025	$16,585 million	$2,063 million	$10,764 million	$1,832 million
2026	$17,603 million	$2,182 million	$11,478 million	$1,935 million
2027	$18,534 million	$2,267 million	$12,105 million	$2,025 million

1 Revenue requirement for 2023 to 2027 represents filing estimates utilizing the OEB's 2021 Allowed ROE of 8.34%. The ROE is calculated based on the Cost of Capital Parameters released by the OEB on November 9, 2020. ROE will be finalized towards the end of 2022.

Deferred Tax Asset

On March 7, 2019, the OEB issued its reconsideration decision (DTA Decision) with respect to Hydro One's rate-setting treatment of the benefits of the DTA resulting from the transition from the payments in lieu of tax regime to tax payments under the federal and provincial tax regimes. On April 5, 2019, the Company filed an appeal with the Ontario Divisional Court (ODC) with respect to the DTA Decision.

On July 16, 2020, the ODC rendered its decision (ODC Decision) in which it agreed with the submissions of Hydro One that the DTA should be allocated to shareholders in its entirety.

On April 8, 2021, the OEB rendered its DTA Implementation Decision regarding the recovery of the DTA amounts allocated to ratepayers for the 2017 to 2022 period. In its DTA Implementation Decision, the OEB approved recovery of the DTA amounts allocated to ratepayers and included in customer rates for the 2017 to 2021 period, plus carrying charges, over a two-year recovery period commencing on July 1, 2021. The recovery of the previously shared DTA amounts plus carrying charges is expected to result in FFO4 of approximately $135 million and $65 million in 2022 and 2023, respectively. In addition, the DTA Implementation Decision required that Hydro One adjust the transmission revenue requirement and the base distribution rates beginning January 1, 2022 to eliminate any further tax savings flowing to customers. This is expected to result in additional FFO4 of approximately $50 million in 2022, but will decline over time. The DTA Implementation Decision is also expected to result in an ETR of approximately 14% to 22% over the next five years, with the most significant impacts expected over the recovery period.

Hydro One Remote Communities

On November 3, 2021, Hydro One Remote Communities filed an application with the OEB seeking approval for a 2.2% increase to 2021 base rates, effective May 1, 2022. The application was subsequently updated to request a 3.3% increase to 2021 base rates to reflect the OEB’s annually updated inflation parameters for electricity distributors for 2022. On March 24, 2022, the OEB approved the application for rates and other charges which became effective on May 1, 2022.

4 FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure. See section “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

OTHER DEVELOPMENTS

Collective Agreements

The prior collective agreement with the Canadian Union of Skilled Workers (CUSW) expired on April 30, 2022. In March 2022, Hydro One and the CUSW commenced collective bargaining with the official exchange of bargaining agendas. The agreement was ratified by the CUSW membership in May. The term of the agreement is for four years ending on April 30, 2026.

In addition, Hydro One’s collective agreement with the Power Workers’ Union for Customer Service Operations expires on September 30, 2022. Planning for collective bargaining to renew this agreement is currently underway.

Exemptive Relief

On July 28, 2022, the Canadian securities regulatory authorities granted (i) the Minister of Energy, (ii) Ontario Power Generation Inc. (on behalf of itself and the segregated funds established as required by the Nuclear Fuel Waste Act) and (iii) agencies of the Crown, provincial Crown corporations and other provincial entities (collectively, the Non-Aggregated Holders) exemptive relief, subject to certain conditions, to enable each Non-Aggregated Holder to treat securities of Hydro One and debt securities of Hydro One Inc. and Hydro One Holdings Limited that it owns or controls separately from securities of Hydro One and debt securities of Hydro One Inc. and Hydro One Holdings Limited owned or controlled by the other Non-Aggregated Holders for purposes of certain take-over bid, early warning reporting, insider reporting and control person distribution rules and certain distribution restrictions under Canadian securities laws. Hydro One was also granted relief permitting it to rely solely on insider reports and early warning reports filed by Non-Aggregated Holders when reporting beneficial ownership or control or direction over securities of Hydro One and debt securities of Hydro One Inc. and Hydro One Holdings Limited in any information circular or annual information form in respect of such securities beneficially owned or controlled by any Non-Aggregated Holder, subject to certain conditions. Substantially similar relief had previously been granted on June 6, 2017, which terminated in 2022.

Supporting Broadband and Infrastructure Expansion Act, 2021

On March 4, 2021, the Province introduced Bill 257 (Supporting Broadband and Infrastructure Expansion Act, 2021) to create a new act entitled the Building Broadband Faster Act, 2021 that is aimed at supporting the timely deployment of broadband infrastructure within unserved and underserved rural Ontario communities. Bill 257 received Royal Assent on April 12, 2021. Bill 257 amends the Ontario Energy Board Act, 1998 (OEB Act) to provide the Province with regulation-making authority regarding the development of, access to, or use of electricity infrastructure for non-electricity purposes, including to reduce or fix the annual rental charge that telecommunications service providers must pay to attach their wireline broadband telecommunications attachments to utility poles, establish performance standards and timelines for how utilities must respond to attachment requests and require utilities to consider joint use of poles during planning processes. The Building Broadband Faster Act (BBFA) Guideline and regulations informing the legislative changes were published on November 30, 2021. The regulation regarding electricity infrastructure and designated broadband projects under the OEB Act came into force on April 21, 2022. The Company continues to be engaged with the Province on implementing an appropriate regulatory framework to support the published BBFA Guideline and regulations, including arrangements to sustain the Company’s revenues and recovery of reasonable associated costs. On December 16, 2021, the OEB issued a decision and order that lowered the annual wireline attachment rate for telecommunications carriers from $44.50 per attacher per pole to $34.76 per attacher per pole. On March 7, 2022, the Province introduced Bill 93 (Getting Ontario Connected Act, 2022). Bill 93 received Royal Assent on April 14, 2022. Bill 93 amends the BBFA to ensure that organizations that own underground utility infrastructure near a designated high-speed internet project provide timely access to their infrastructure data, which would allow internet service providers to quickly start work on laying down underground high-speed internet infrastructure. On July 7, 2022, the OEB established a deferral account for rate-regulated distributors to record incremental costs associated with carrying out activities pertaining to designated broadband projects. The Company will continue to assess the impact as more details become available.

Supporting Critical Transmission Infrastructure in Southwestern Ontario

On March 31, 2022, the Minister of Energy directed the OEB to amend Hydro One Networks' licence to require it to develop and seek approvals for four priority transmission line projects to meet growing electricity demand in Southwestern Ontario: the St. Clair Line (a 230kV line from Lambton Transformer Station (TS) to Chatham Switching Station (SS)); two 500 kV lines from Longwood TS to Lakeshore TS; and a 230kV line connecting the Windsor area to the Lakeshore TS.

On May 9, 2022, Hydro One filed a leave-to-construct application seeking OEB approval for the Chatham to Lakeshore Transmission Line project in Southwestern Ontario. In December 2020, the Minister of Energy issued a directive to the OEB to amend Hydro One Networks’ transmission licence to include a requirement that Hydro One proceed to develop and seek all necessary approvals for the project. The cost of this project is estimated at $268 million (see section "Major Transmission Capital Investment Projects").

Sustainability Report

The Hydro One 2021 Sustainability Report entitled "Energizing life for people & communities" is available on the Company’s website at www.hydroone.com/sustainability.

The 2021 Sustainability Report discloses the Company’s environmental, social and governance performance and provides a better understanding of how Hydro One manages the opportunities and challenges associated with its business. The report also includes disclosure relating to the Company’s current efforts in its priority areas of People, Planet and Community.

HYDRO ONE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Directors and Executive Officers

Effective June 8, 2022, Jessica McDonald was no longer a director of the Board. On June 8, 2022, Mark Podlasly was elected to the Board.

On June 21, 2022, Mark Poweska, former President and Chief Executive Officer, resigned as a director and officer of Hydro One. On the same date, Hydro One announced the appointment of William (Bill) Sheffield as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Hydro One uses a number of financial measures to assess its performance. The Company presents FFO or “funds from operations” to reflect a measure of the Company’s cash flow; and revenues, net of purchased power to reflect revenues net of the cost of purchased power. FFO and revenues, net of purchased power are non-GAAP financial measures which do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and might not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. They should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s financial information reported under GAAP.

Hydro One also uses financial ratios that are non-GAAP ratios such as debt to capitalization ratio and earnings coverage ratio. Non-GAAP ratios do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and might not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. They should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s financial information reported under GAAP.

Funds From Operations

FFO is defined as net cash from operating activities, adjusted for (i) changes in non-cash balances related to operations, (ii) dividends paid on preferred shares, and (iii) distributions to noncontrolling interest. Management believes that FFO is helpful as a supplemental measure of the Company’s operating cash flows as it excludes timing-related fluctuations in non-cash operating working capital and cash flows not attributable to common shareholders. As such, management believes that FFO provides a consistent measure of the cash generating performance of the Company’s assets.

The following table provides a reconciliation of GAAP (reported) results to non-GAAP (adjusted) results on a consolidated basis.

	Three months ended June 30		Six months ended June 30

Revenues, Net of Purchased Power

Revenues, net of purchased power is defined as revenues less the cost of purchased power; distribution revenues, net of purchased power is defined as distribution revenues less the cost of purchased power. These measures are used internally by management to assess the impacts of revenue on net income and are considered useful because they exclude the cost of power that is fully recovered through revenues and therefore net income neutral.

The following tables provide a reconciliation of GAAP (reported) revenues to non-GAAP (adjusted) revenues, net of purchased power on a consolidated basis.

Quarter ended (millions of dollars)	Jun 30, 2022	Mar 31, 2022	Dec 31, 2021	Sep 30, 2021	Jun 30, 2021	Mar 31, 2021	Dec 31, 2020	Sep 30, 2020

Debt to Capitalization Ratio

The Company believes that the debt to capitalization ratio is an important non-GAAP ratio in the management of its debt levels. This non-GAAP ratio does not have a standardized meaning under US GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. Debt to capitalization ratio has been calculated as total debt (including total long-term debt and short-term borrowings, net of cash and cash equivalents) divided by total debt plus total shareholders’ equity, but excluding any amounts related to noncontrolling interest. Management believes that the debt to capitalization ratio is helpful as a measure of the proportion of debt in the Company's capital structure.

As at (millions of dollars)	June 30,<br>2022	December 31,<br>2021
Short-term notes payable	1,432	1,045
Less: cash and cash equivalents	(31)	(540)
Long-term debt (current portion)	738	603
Long-term debt (long-term portion)	12,280	13,017
Total debt (A)	14,419	14,125
Shareholders' equity (excluding noncontrolling interest)	11,144	10,888
Total debt plus shareholders' equity (B)	25,563	25,013		Debt-to-capitalization ratio (A/B)	56.4	%	56.5	%
---	---	---	---	---

Earnings Coverage Ratio

Earnings coverage ratio is defined as earnings before income taxes and financing charges attributable to shareholders, divided by the sum of financing charges and capitalized interest, and is calculated on a rolling twelve-month basis. The Company believes that the earnings coverage ratio is an important non-GAAP measure in the management of its liquidity. This non-GAAP ratio does not have a standardized meaning under US GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (continued)

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

RISK MANAGEMENT AND RISK FACTORS

Hydro One is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Critical to Hydro One’s success is the identification, management, and to the extent possible, mitigation of these risks. Hydro One’s Enterprise Risk Management program assists decision-makers throughout the organization with the management of key business risks, including new and emerging risks and opportunities.

A discussion of the material risks relating to Hydro One and its business that the Company believes would be the most likely to influence an investor’s decision to purchase Hydro One’s securities can be found under the heading “Risk Management and Risk Factors” in the 2021 MD&A.

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES AND INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as defined in National Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings. Internal control, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and due to its inherent limitations, may not prevent or detect all misrepresentations.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2022 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting.

forecasted in such forward-looking statements. Hydro One does not intend, and it disclaims any obligation, to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

These forward-looking statements are based on a variety of factors and assumptions including, but not limited to, the following: the scope of the COVID-19 pandemic and duration thereof as well as the effect and severity of corporate and other mitigation measures on the Company’s operations, supply chain or employees; no unforeseen changes in the legislative and operating framework for Ontario’s electricity market or for Hydro One specifically; favourable decisions from the OEB and other regulatory bodies concerning outstanding and future rate and other applications; no unexpected delays in obtaining the required approvals; no unforeseen changes in rate orders or rate setting methodologies for the Company’s distribution and transmission businesses; continued use of US GAAP; a stable regulatory environment; no unfavourable changes in environmental regulation; no significant changes to the Company's current credit ratings; no unforeseen impacts of new accounting pronouncements; no changes to expectations regarding electricity consumption; no unforeseen changes to economic and market conditions; recoverability of costs and expenses related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the costs of customer defaults resulting from the pandemic; completion of operating and capital projects that have been deferred; and no significant event occurring outside the ordinary course of business. These assumptions are based on information currently available to the Company, including information obtained from third-party sources. Actual results may differ materially from those predicted by such forward-looking statements. While Hydro One does not know what impact any of these differences may have, the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and credit stability may be materially adversely affected. Factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, among other things:

•a significant expansion in length or severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the spread of its variants, restricting or prohibiting the Company’s operations or significantly impacting the Company’s supply chain or workforce;

•severity of mitigation measures related to the COVID-19 pandemic;

•delays in completion of and increases in costs of operating and capital projects;

•regulatory risks and risks relating to Hydro One’s revenues, including risks relating to rate orders and the rate-setting models for transmission and distribution, actual performance against forecasts and capital expenditures, competition with other transmitters and other applications to the OEB, the recoverability of total compensation costs or denials of applications;

•risks associated with the Province’s share ownership of Hydro One and other relationships with the Province, including potential conflicts of interest that may arise between Hydro One, the Province and related parties, risks associated with the Province’s exercise of further legislative and regulatory powers in the implementation of the Hydro One Accountability Act, risks relating to the ability of the Company to attract and retain qualified executive talent or the risk of a credit rating downgrade for the Company and its impact on the Company’s funding and liquidity;

•risks relating to the location of the Company’s assets on reserve (as defined in the Indian Act (Canada)) (Reserve) lands and the risk that Hydro One may incur significant costs associated with transferring assets located on Reserves;

•the risk that the Company may be unable to comply with regulatory and legislative requirements or that the Company may incur additional costs for compliance that are not recoverable through rates;

•the risk of exposure of the Company’s facilities to the effects of severe weather conditions, natural disasters, man-made events or other unexpected occurrences for which the Company is uninsured or for which the Company could be subject to claims for damage;

•the risk of non-compliance with environmental regulations and inability to recover environmental expenditures in rate applications and the risk that assumptions that form the basis of the Company’s recorded environmental liabilities and related regulatory assets may change;

•risks associated with information system security and maintaining complex information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) system infrastructure, including system failures or risks of cyber-attacks or unauthorized access to corporate IT and OT systems;

•the risk of labour disputes and inability to negotiate or renew appropriate collective agreements on acceptable terms consistent with the Company’s rate decisions;

•risks related to the Company’s work force demographic and its potential inability to attract and retain qualified personnel;

•the risk that the Company is not able to arrange sufficient cost-effective financing to repay maturing debt and to fund capital expenditures;

•risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates and failure to manage exposure to credit and financial instrument risk;

•risks associated with economic uncertainty and financial market volatility;

•the risk that the Company may not be able to execute plans for capital projects necessary to maintain the performance of the Company’s assets or to carry out projects in a timely manner or the risk of increased competition for the development of large transmission projects or legislative changes affecting the selection of transmitters;

•risks associated with asset condition, capital projects and innovation, including public opposition to or delays or denials of the requisite approvals and accommodations for the Company’s planned projects;

•the risk of failure to mitigate significant health and safety risks;

•the risk of not being able to recover the Company’s pension expenditures in future rates and uncertainty regarding the future regulatory treatment of pension, other post-employment benefits and post-retirement benefits costs;

•the impact of the ownership by the Province of lands underlying the Company’s transmission system;

•the risk associated with legal proceedings that could be costly, time-consuming or divert the attention of management and key personnel from the Company’s business operations;

•the impact if the Company does not have valid occupational rights on third-party owned or controlled lands and the risks associated with occupational rights of the Company that may be subject to expiry;

•risks relating to adverse reputational events or political actions;

•the potential that Hydro One may incur significant expenses to replace functions currently outsourced if agreements are terminated or expire before a new service provider is selected;

•risks relating to acquisitions, including the failure to realize anticipated benefits of such transaction at all, or within the time periods anticipated, and unexpected costs incurred in relation thereto;

•the inability to prepare financial statements using US GAAP; and
