Case No. PAC-E-05-8 Pursuant to Commitment I 17(2), incorporated in the Idaho Public Utilities Commission Order No. 29973,issued February 13,2006,as supplemented by Order No.29998 March 14,2006, in the above-referenced proceeding, approving the acquisition of PacifiCorp by MidAmerican Energy Holdings Company (now Berkshire Hathaway Energy Company or "BHE"), PacifiCorp hereby provides notice of an affiliated interest transaction with Chubb Limited. ("Chubb") for an Excess Liability Insurance ("Insurance Policy"). The Insurance Policy allows Chubb to provide excess liability insurance for PacifiCorp.A true copy of the Insurance Policy is included with this filing as Confidential Attachment A. PacifiCorp requests confidential treatment for Attachment A. This confidential business information is of significant commercial value, which could expose the Company to competitive injury and/or the potential for commercial fraud against the Company if disclosure is unrestricted. As such,the information has been redacted as it is third-parry proprietary information. PacifiCorp is a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of BHE. In turn, BHE is a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway, Inc. ("Berkshire Hathaway"). On May 15, 2024, Berkshire Hathaway acquired an interest in excess of five percent of Chubb common stock. Therefore, Berkshire Hathaway's ownership interest in Chubb may create an affiliated interest in some PacifiCorp jurisdictions. Chubb is a provider of insurance worldwide. In August of 2023, BHE acquired insurance from a number of insurers, including Chubb. These were negotiated as arms-length transactions and executed prior to Chubb becoming an affiliate at prevailing market prices. PacifiCorp pays —to Chubb for excess liability insurance for the 2023-2024 timeframe. The purchase of excess liability insurance from Chubb through this transaction will give PacifiCorp sufficient insurance coverage to minimize the risk of impairment to its ability to provide electrical services to customers.
