(i) the long-term debt component, which equals the product of the actual weighted average embedded cost to maturity of NMPC’s long-term debt

(b) the extent, if any, by which the ratio of NMPC's actual common equity to total capital at year-end exceeds fifty percent (50%). Long term debt shall be

defined as the average of the beginning of the year and end of year balances of the following: long term debt less the unamortized

Discounts on Long-Term Debt less the unamortized Loss on Reacquired Debt plus unamortized Gain on Reacquired Debt. Cost to maturity of NMPC's long-

Notes:

The affected ADIT accounts were remeasured by comparing ADIT on cumulative temporary differences for each item in accounts 190, 282, and 283 at the current Federal, State & Local Income Tax rate to ADIT balances at historical

Federal, State & Local Income Tax rates. The difference between the two represents the excess or deficient ADIT. Refer to Schedule 14(a).

Relates to the Federal Income Tax Rate change associated with the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation may add or remove sublines and notes explaining them without a FPA Section 205 filing.

Total equals the sum of sublines a through [], where [] is the last subline denoted by a letter.

Deficient/(excess) ADIT balances will be amortized as follows: "Protected property-related" = ARAM, "unprotected property-related" = 31 yrs, all other unprotected deficient/(excess) ADIT balances = 10 yrs.

Deficient ADIT is amortized to Account 410.1; Excess ADIT is amortized to Account 411.1.

Other changes to (excess)/deficient ADIT due to the conclusion of IRS audits during applicable periods affected by a change in federal, state or local tax rates, the establishment of new (excess)/deficient ADIT due to future tax rate

changes and classification changes between protected and unprotected categories due to the passage of time.

Smart Path Connect Cost Containment Adjustment

Attachment 1

Schedule 15e

Under the cost containment mechanism for the Smart Path Connect (“SPC”) project (“SPC Project” or “Project”), where “Eligible Project Costs” exceed the Cost Cap, NMPC will earn no ROE on 20% of the equity portion of the actual costs that exceed the Cost Cap.

NMPC will remain eligible to recover the depreciation and debt costs on its share of all actual Project-related costs.

The Cost Cap for the SPC Project is $481.8 million.

Eligible Project Costs are defined as all capital costs incurred to develop, construct, and place the SPC Project into service, excluding “Third Party Costs” andUnforeseeable Costs” in excess of 2.5% of the Cost Cap.

Third Party Costs include: (i) interconnection and network upgrade costs resulting from the ISO evaluation process; (ii) property taxes; and (iii) any increased costs, i.e., costs incurred related to the rescheduling of outages or to the relocation of utility assets, which are

beyond the ability of NMPC to control or mitigate.

Unforeseeable Costs are defined in terms of costs that NMPC could not have reasonably anticipated at the time the estimate was submitted to the NYPSC as part of the Article VII application process. Unforeseeable Costs include the following:

UC 1 - Costs associated with material modifications to the routing or scope of work of the Project that results from a NYPSC order, negotiation, or settlement agreement within the siting process, or are imposed or required by any other governmental

agency. For the avoidance of doubt, foreseeable obligations, as included in NMPC’s Article VII Application to the New York Public Service Commission for the SPC Project, or non-material obligations imposed upon NMPC as a normal part of the siting

process, shall not be deemed to be Unforeseeable Costs

UC 2 - Costs associated with changes in applicable laws and regulations, or interpretations thereof by governmental agencies

UC 3 - Costs incurred as a result of orders of courts or action, or inaction, by governmental agencies;

UC 4 - Costs related to destruction, damage, interruption, suspension, or interference of or with the Project caused by landslides, lightning, earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, severe weather, fires, explosions, floods, epidemics, pandemics, acts of public

enemy, acts of terrorism, wars, blockades, riots, rebellions, sabotage, insurrections, environmental contamination or damage, or strike or otherwise unavailability of skilled labor, provided that (i) the cause was not reasonably within the control of NMPC,

(ii) NMPC made reasonable efforts to avoid or minimize the adverse impacts of any of the above-listed events, and (iii) NMPC took reasonable steps to expeditiously resolve the event after it occurred;

UC 5 - Steel cost escalation that is greater than the “Handy Whitman Construction Cost Index” applied to steel costs in determining the Cost Cap; and

UC 6 - Total actual Project cost escalation, excluding steel costs, that are greater than 150% of the Handy Whitman Construction Cost Index applied to non-steel costs in determining the Cost Cap.
