Retail Rate Case Settlement Term Sheet
On March 1, 2017, the Staff of the Arizona Corporation Commission (“ACC”) filed with the ACC a settlement term sheet with respect to Arizona Public Service Company’s (“APS”) pending general retail rate case. The term sheet is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. The settlement term sheet was agreed to by a majority of the formal stakeholders in the rate case, including the ACC Staff, the Residential Utility Consumer Office, limited income advocates and private rooftop solar organizations. The settlement term sheet must be converted to a definitive settlement agreement and signed by the supporting parties. It will then be submitted to an administrative law judge, whose decision regarding whether the settlement should be approved will be reviewed by the ACC. We currently anticipate hearings on the proposed settlement will begin on April 24, 2017. Through a separate agreement, APS, industry representatives, and solar advocates commit to stand by the settlement agreement and refrain from seeking to undermine it through ballot initiatives, legislation or advocacy at the ACC. APS cannot predict whether a definitive settlement agreement based on the settlement term sheet will ultimately be approved by the ACC.
For details regarding APS’s requests in the retail rate case, see Note 3 to the Pinnacle West Capital Corporation (“Pinnacle West”)/APS Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Pinnacle West will be participating in various meetings with securities analysts and investors on March 1, 2017 and will be utilizing handouts during those meetings. Copies of the handouts were attached to the Pinnacle West/APS Current Report on Form 8-K filed February 28, 2017. Additional handouts for use at the analyst and investor meetings related to the settlement term sheet are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2.
