  15. Rate Schedule 17 2019 Update: Results and Recommendations Process Co-Leads: Clark Kaml and Louis Szablya Presented by: Louis Szablya and Baxter Gillette, Large Power Solutions February 25, 2020 Powering our way of life.

  16. Resolution 8891 - Rate Schedule 17 (RS17)  Available to Evolving Industry (EI) customers  EI rate class criteria • No less than annually, a team composed of Grant PUD staff will review the El Rate Class to recommend if it is appropriate for a customer's industry to move into, or out of the El Rate Class • The team will be composed of representatives from Large Customer Care (now called Large Power Solutions), Customer Solutions, Engineering, Rates, and Finance/Accounting 2

RS17 Team Members Name Role Dave Churchman Executive Sponsor Louis Szablya*/Clark Kaml Co-Lead Large Power Solutions/Rates Baxter Gillette Update Manager** Terry McKenzie Customer Service Mike Facey Accounting Jesus Lopez Engineering Bonnie Overfield Finance Paul Dietz Risk Management *Prime ** Subject Matter Expert 3

  18. RS 17 Update Team Charter Objectives  Concentration and EI Assessment • Assess for concentration risk • Requests from nascent uses or industries new to Grant PUD – active new electric service requests • Current EI Class – current load and future requests • Existing customers with nascent uses – current load and future requests • Then, as appropriate, assess the other criteria • Regulatory risk • Business risk (including nascency)  Assess if RS17 billing rates require adjustment • Update assumptions – current market conditions • Internal team discussion to confirm the model and assumptions • Replace any information, assumptions or data that is no longer available with available information, if necessary • Recalculate 2021 RS17 (the target rate) if any parameters have changed • Recommend changes to the RS17 billing rates or trajectory as appropriate 4

  19. Industry or Use Assessment Concentration Risk

  20. Evolving Industry Assessment  Determine what uses and / or industries to include in the Evolving Industry Class  For retail customers whose energy load activity and / or industry has meets the criteria established by resolution 8891 • Concentration Risk – the sum of existing loads plus new electric service request queue compared to total Grant PUD load • Business Risk – including price volatility of primary product, nascency and Porter’s Five Forces • Regulatory Risk - pending state or federal legislation or regulation and feedback from investment banks 6

  21. Concentration Risk Threshold Concentration Threshold Calculation 2017 2019 % Change Load aMW 537.0 589.5 9.8% Queue MW 514.5 567.0 10.3% Sum 1,051.5 1,156.5 10.0% 5% 52.6 57.8 9.9% • There was only a 10% change in the concentration risk threshold since the original calculation • The size of the new electric service request queue changed proportionally between the two periods • The composition of the new electric service request queue has changed drastically with the Evolving Industry queue going from 402.0 MW to 89.5 MW while the traditional queue went from 112.5 MW to 477.5 MW • Recommendation – use 57.8 as the threshold number for the concentration risk calculation 7

  22. Concentration Risk Assessment  All energy load Cryptocurrency Mining / Cryptomining activities and / or 450 410.7 402 industries within Grant 400 PUD’s service territory 350 were assessed 300 250 200 • Cryptomining is the 150 only nascent industry 112 89.5 that exceeds the 100 57.8 57.8 threshold of 57.8 50 22.5 8.7 0 2017 2019 Actual aMW Queue MW Total 5% Threshold 8

  23. Industry or Use Assessment Business and Regulatory Risk

  24. 1 Nascent Industry Characteristics From Invention to Commercial Viability  Factors that affect nascency • Extensive parallel or sequential technological experiments • Bottlenecks and problems, which may not be well understood until after development of various versions of the entire system • Substantial efforts devoted to designing and establishing complementary systems • Commercial viability of a new industry may still not be evident until technological, demand, social, and institutional uncertainties are resolved.  From invention to first commercialization • 3 studies range 13.6 to 21.8 years average; range 1-140 years • Dropping over last century  From commercialization to commercial viability • Can take over a decade 1 Goldfarb, Brent. 2017. Time to Commercial Viability in Nascent Industries: A Historical Study. SSRN Electronic Journal. 10

  25. Porter’s Five Forces THREAT OF SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS BARGAINING POWER OF SUPPLIERS • Number of substitute products available • Number and size of suppliers • Buyer propensity to substitute • Uniqueness of each supplier’s • Relative price performance of product substitute • Company’s or industry’s ability to • Perceived level of product substitute RIVALRY AMONG differentiation EXISTING COMPETITORS a • Switching costs • Brand loyalty • Barriers to exit • Number of competitors • Diversity of competitors • Industry concentration BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS THREAT OF NEW ENTRANTS • Quality differences • Barriers to entry • Switching costs • Number and size of customers • Economies of scale • Size of each customer order • Brand loyalty • Difference between competitors • Capital requirements • Price sensitivity • Cumulative experience • Buyer’s ability to substitute • Government policies • Buyer’s information availability • Access to distribution channels • Switching costs • Switching costs 11

  26. Cryptocurrency: An Evolving Industry Although cryptocurrencies are expanding and resilient, they continue to be a volatile, evolving industry. THREAT OF SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS BARGAINING POWER OF SUPPLIERS • Competing currencies, algorithms, and ASIC resistance • CPU to GPU to ASIC • Precious metals and fiat currencies • High machine turnover (efficiency • Governments, banks and and difficulty) companies • 20+ firms globally, $3-4B/yr in sales • Stablecoins and virtual banking RIVALRY AMONG EXISTING COMPETITORS a • Miners in pure competition • Mining pools concentrated • No brand loyalty to miners • Brand loyalty to BARGAINING POWER OF BUYERS THREAT OF NEW ENTRANTS currencies • Barriers to exit are low • Exchange listings: BTC on CME • Suppliers becoming competitors and ICE • Cryptojacking • 85% annualized volatility • Scandals: 51% attacks, wallet • Over 42 million blockchain wallets hacks, Ponzi schemes • Top 0.55% of wallets (150k) have 86% of BTC • 0.1% BTC purchase has sent prices up 20% • SEC repeated refusals to list ETFs 12

  27. 2019 Rate Schedule 17 Update  Current Evolving Industry uses and / or industries • Cryptocurrency mining  No new uses and / or industries were identified  Assessment of cryptomining • Concentration risk is greater than the 5% threshold • Business risk is high and qualifies it for the Evolving Industry Class • Regulatory risk was reviewed and not considered onerous at this time  Recommendation – Cryptocurrency / cryptomining should remain in the Evolving Industry Class 13

  46.  The RPIC administers the District 401(a) and 457(b) deferred compensation plans  Members of the committee are appointed by the Manager (some District positions require committee membership).  Current Members: ◦ Jeffery Bishop, Chief Financial Officer* ◦ Darla Stevens, Manager of Human Resources* ◦ Dmitriy Turchik, District Auditor* ◦ Brian Owens, Manager appointee ◦ Rod Noteboom, Manager appointee ◦ Dawn Woodward, Retiree, Manager appointee *Required committee members 2

  47.  Supplemental retirement and/or post employment income  Part of overall compensation package of a competitive employer  Tax advantages  Many employees do not work at Grant for a full career ◦ Deferred comp is more portable than a pension ◦ All funds in deferred comp are immediately vested

  48.  A 401(a) plan is a Governmental Profit-Sharing retirement plan that is set up by an employer. The plan allows for contributions by the employer, the employee or both. Contribution amounts are either dollar-based or percentage-based and the sponsoring employer establishes eligibility and the vesting schedule. Withdrawals incur a 10% federal penalty unless the employee is 59 1/2, dies, retires, is disabled or rolls over the funds into a qualified IRA or retirement plan.  A 457(b) plan is a deferred compensation plan established by state and local governments and tax-exempt governments and tax-exempt employers. Eligible employees are allowed to make salary deferral contributions to the 457 plan. Earnings grow on a tax-deferred basis and contributions are not taxed until the assets are distributed from the plan. 4

  49.  401(a): Eligible participants choose a contribution percentage within 60 days of fulltime regular employment status. Beginning 4/1/2020 an employee can choose a contribution percentage from 1% to 20% (of gross pay). The current limits are from 4% to 20% of gross pay. This is an irrevocable election that cannot be changed or inactivated. Beginning 12/27/2019 all employees began to receive a 3% contribution from the District that is not dependent on an employee contribution.  457(b): Eligible participants may elect any amount (flat amount or percentage) and may change their contribution any time throughout the year. The current Federal annual limit is $19,500 (age 50 and over annual limit is $26,000). 5

  50.  Currently - total plan fees are 10.5 basis points (0.105%) ◦ ICMA Share 6.4 bps ◦ District Share 4.1 bps  Beginning 4/1/2020 – total plan fees will be $88 per account per year ◦ ICMA Share $54 ◦ District Share $34 These fees are for the operation of the plan and do not include the management fees charged by the funds in the plan 6

  51. 457(b) 401(a) Eligible Employees 648 648 As of 12/12/19 Participating Employees 446 563* As of 12/31/19 Percent Participation 69% 87% Approximate due to dates shown above Total Participants including those not 698 784 As of 12/31/19 currently employed by the District Number of Investment Options 30 30 As of 12/31/19 Plan Balance on 12/31/19 $70,835,40 $60,331,928 *401 participation does not include the added accounts on 12/27/19 where all employees receive a contribution. These accounts had zero balance on 12/27/19. Participation in the 401 is now 100% 7

  52. Su Summary of of s some ome of of th the is issues addre ddressed by by th the I IPS  Purpose Statement ◦ establishes and implements policy to assist in selection and monitoring of investment options  Role of the Deferred Compensation Committee ◦ meets quarterly to develop and implement investment policies ◦ reviews, adds and removes investment providers and investment options ◦ select investment advisors, managers, or consultants to assist Committee  Role of Investment Adviser ◦ recommendations and insights on investment policies ◦ Information and advice on fund performance and other relevant metrics ◦ Review plan utilization ◦ Review plan communications ◦ Guidance on changes to law, public policy, and market circumstances ◦ Guidance on a variety of topics related to the operation of the plan 8

  53. Su Summary of of s some ome of of th the is issues addre ddressed by by th the I IPS  Design of investment menu ◦ Track Record Fund management personnel Performance Adherence to stated investment style Risk adjusted return Fees and expenses  Criteria for monitoring, adding and removing funds 9

  54.  The District uses ICMA-RC for record keeping, educational, and outreach services.  The ICMA-RC contract is re-evaluated on a regular basis and the committee can choose to change the record keeper upon conclusion of the contract term.  Tasks performed by the record keeper include  Individual account recordkeeping  Contribution and distribution administration  Fund transfers  Loans  Fee collection  General communication  Education and outreach  One on one participant consultations including financial planning 10

  55.  The committee utilizes a consultant to ensure the District is following best practices for deferred compensation plans.  Cammack Larhette Advisors, LLC is our advisor. Cammack’s advise includes but is not limited to:  Regulations  Monitoring the investment performance  Investment menu including changes to funds in the plan  Fees  Communication with participants  Following the IPS  New legislation and issues that need to be addressed 11

  56.  District and individual committee members have fiduciary responsibility.  The Commission has fiduciary responsibility based on global oversight of District activities.  The District provides insurance to cover fiduciary responsibly of the District and the individual employees who are fiduciaries.  The District has an indemnification resolution #3311.  Advisor also carries insurance and acts as a co-fiduciary. 12

  57.  Participants may keep their accounts in the District program during retirement  Total fees within the District program will typically be much lower than fees in a managed account.  Fund fees will typically be lower in the District program compared to a discount broker since the District program has access to institutional shares, which have lower fees for the exact same fund compared to shares available to individual investors  The District is able to negotiate lower institutional share fees with higher balances, and thus all the participants benefit when retirees keep their funds in the District program. 13
