Statements contained in this presentation, including statements with respect to future earnings, cash flows, financing, regulation and
corporate strategy are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Although PPL Corporation
believes that the expectations and assumptions reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, these statements are
subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the statements.
The following are among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements:
market demand and prices for energy, capacity and fuel; weather conditions affecting customer energy usage and operating costs;
competition in power markets; the effect of any business or industry restructuring; the profitability and liquidity of PPL Corporation and
its subsidiaries; new accounting requirements or new interpretations or applications of existing requirements; operating performance of
plants and other facilities; the length of scheduled and unscheduled outages at our plants, including the current outage at Unit 2 of our
Susquehanna nuclear plant to inspect and repair turbine blades, and the timing and outcome of any similar outage for inspections at
Unit 1 of the Susquehanna plant; environmental conditions and requirements and the related costs of compliance, including
environmental capital expenditures and emission allowance and other expenses; system conditions and operating costs; development
of new projects, markets and technologies; performance of new ventures; asset or business acquisitions and dispositions, and PPL
Corporation’s ability to realize the expected benefits from acquired businesses, including the 2010 acquisition of Louisville Gas and
Electric Company and Kentucky Utilities Company and the 2011 acquisition of the Central Networks electricity distribution businesses
in the U.K.; any impact of hurricanes or other severe weather on our business, including any impact on fuel prices; receipt of
necessary government permits, approvals, rate relief and regulatory cost recovery; capital market conditions and decisions regarding
capital structure; the impact of state, federal or foreign investigations applicable to PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries; the outcome
of litigation against PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries; stock price performance; the market prices of equity securities and the impact
on pension income and resultant cash funding requirements for defined benefit pension plans; the securities and credit ratings of PPL
Corporation and its subsidiaries; political, regulatory or economic conditions in states, regions or countries where PPL Corporation or
its subsidiaries conduct business, including any potential effects of threatened or actual terrorism or war or other hostilities; foreign
exchange rates; new state, federal or foreign legislation, including new tax legislation; and the commitments and liabilities of PPL
Corporation and its subsidiaries. Any such forward-looking statements should be considered in light of such important factors and in
conjunction with PPL Corporation's Form 10-K and other reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Forward-Looking Information Statement

“Earnings from ongoing operations” should not be considered as an alternative to reported earnings, or net income attributable to PPL, which is an
indicator of operating performance determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). PPL believes that “earnings from
ongoing operations,” although a non-GAAP financial measure, is also useful and meaningful to investors because it provides management’s view of
PPL’s fundamental earnings performance as another criterion in making investment decisions. PPL’s management also uses “earnings from ongoing
operations” in measuring certain corporate performance goals. Other companies may use different measures to present financial performance.

“Earnings from ongoing operations” is adjusted for the impact of special items. Special items include:

• Energy-related economic activity (as discussed below).

• Foreign currency-related economic hedges.

• Gains and losses on sales of assets not in the ordinary course of business.

• Impairment charges (including impairments of securities in the company’s nuclear decommissioning trust funds).

• Workforce reduction and other restructuring impacts.

• Acquisition-related costs and charges.

• Other charges or credits that are, in management’s view, not reflective of the company’s ongoing operations.

Energy-related economic activity includes the changes in fair value of positions used economically to hedge a portion of the economic value of PPL’s
generation assets, full-requirement sales contracts and retail activities. This economic value is subject to changes in fair value due to market price
volatility of the input and output commodities (e.g., fuel and power) prior to the delivery period that was hedged. Also included in energy-related
economic activity is the ineffective portion of qualifying cash flow hedges, the monetization of certain full-requirement sales contracts and premium
amortization associated with options. This economic activity is deferred, with the exception of the full-requirement sales contracts that were
monetized, and included in earnings from ongoing operations over the delivery period of the item that was hedged or upon realization. Management
believes that adjusting for such amounts provides a better matching of earnings from ongoing operations to the actual amounts settled for PPL’s
underlying hedged assets. Please refer to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and MD&A in PPL Corporation’s periodic filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission for additional information on energy-related economic activity.

“Free cash flow before dividends” is derived by deducting capital expenditures and other investing activities-net, from cash flow from operations. Free
cash flow before dividends should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operations, which is determined in accordance with GAAP.
PPL believes that free cash flow before dividends, although a non-GAAP measure, is an important measure to both management and investors, as it
is an indicator of the company’s ability to sustain operations and growth without additional outside financing beyond the requirement to fund maturing
debt obligations. Other companies may calculate free cash flow before dividends in a different manner.
