Introduction: 3 This 2017 PacifiCorp Inter-Jurisdictional Allocation Protocol (the "2017 Protocol") is the 4 result of general agreement that has been reached between representatives of PacifiCorp (or the 5 "Company") and certain Commission staff members, consumer advocates and other interested 6 parties from Idaho, Oregon, Utah, and Wyoming (collectively referred to as the "Parties" or 7 individually as a "Party") regarding issues arising with regards to the 2010 Protocol, 8 PacifiCorp's status as a multi-jurisdictional utility and future inter-jurisdictional allocation 9 procedures. 10 The 2010 Protocol expires at midnight on December 31, 2016. The Parties have 11 determined that it is in their best interest or the interest of PacifiCorp's customers to support a 12 new protocol governing inter-jurisdictional allocation procedures. This 2017 Protocol is 13 designed to provide PacifiCorp, State Commissions, and other interested Parties a transitional 14 allocation method while the impacts of the United States Environmental Protection Agency 15 (EPA) rules governing carbon pollution from existing power plants under section 111(d) of the 16 Clean Air Act (111(d) and other multi-jurisdictional issues are better understood and can be 17 more fully analyzed for their allocation impacts on PacifiCorp and each State. During the term 18 of the 2017 Protocol, PacifiCorp will analyze alternative allocation methods including but not 19 limited to: corporate structure alternatives, divisional allocation methodologies, alternative 20 system allocation methodologies, potential implications of the EPA's final Rule lll(d), and 2I possible formation of a regional independent system operator. PacifiCorp will present its 22 analyses of these issues to the Multi-State Protocol or MSP Workgroup and discuss them at 23 CommissionerForums. 2017 Protocol Rocky Mountain Power Exhibit No. 1 Page 3 of 64 Case No. PAC-E-15-16 Wilness: Jefirey K. Larsen 1 2 J 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 I2 13 t4 15 t6 t7 18 t9 20 2l 22 23 During the term of the 2017 Protocol, PacifiCorp commits that its generation and transmission system will continue to be planned and operated prudently on an integrated basis designed to achieve a least cost/least risk resource portfolio for PacifiCorp's customers. This commitment will not prevent PacifiCorp from filing for and requesting State Commission approval to participate in a regional independent system operator organization. The 2017 Protocol describes inter-jurisdictional allocation policies and procedures, which, if applied by each of the States for rate proceedings filed after December 3 1 , 201 6, or as otherwise agreed to in Section XlV, are intended to better afford, than would otherwise be the case, PacifiCorp a reasonable opportunity to meet the goal of recovering its prudently incurred cost of service. The apportionment, assignment, or allocation of a particular expense or investment, or allocation of a share of an expense or investrnent, to a State under the 2017 Protocol is not intended to and will not prejudge the prudence of those costs. Nothing in the 2017 Protocol is intended to abrogate a State Commission's right and/or obligation to: (l) determine fair, just, and reasonable rates based upon the law ofthat State and the record established in rate proceedings conducted by that Commission: (2) consider the impact of changes in laws, regulations, or circumstances on inter-jurisdictional allocation policies and procedures when determining fair, just, and reasonable rates; or (3) establish different allocation policies and procedures for purposes of allocation of costs and revenues within that State to different customers or customer classes. Parties who support the 2017 Protocol do so with the intent to continue to achieve equitable resolutions to multi-jurisdictional allocation issues that are in the public interest. A Party's support of the 2017 Protocol will not, however, in any manner negate the necessary 2017 Protocol Rocky Mountain Power Exhibit No. 1 Page 4 of 64 Case No. PAC-E-15-16 Witness: Jeffrey K. Larsen 1 flexibility of the regulatory process to address changed or unforeseen circumstances, including 2 batnot limited to changes in laws or regulations, and a Party's support of the 2017 Protocol will 3 not bind or be used against that Party if a Party concludes that the 2017 Protocol no longer 4 produces results that are just, reasonable, and in the public interest, or provides the Company 5 with the opportunity to recover its prudently incurred cost of service. Support of the 2017 6 Protocol will not be deemed to constitute an acknowledgement by any Party of the validity or 7 invalidity of any particular method, theory, or principle of regulation, cost recovery, cost of 8 service, or rate design, and no Party will be deemed to have agreed that any particular method, 9 theory, or principle of regulation, cost recovery, cost of service, or rate design employed or 10 implied in the 2017 Protocol is appropriate for resolving any other issues. 11 The 2017 Protocol describes how the costs and revenues, including wholesale 12 transactions, associated with PacifiCorp's generation, transmission, and distribution systems will 13 be assigned or allocated among its six state jurisdictions. 14 Terms that are capitalized in the 2017 Protocol are either defined in the 2017 Protocol or 15 set forth in Appendix A. 16 A table identiffing the allocation factor to be applied to each component of PacifiCorp's 17 revenue requirement calculation is included as Appendix B. 18 The algebraic derivation of each allocation factor is contained in Appendix C. 19 A description and numeric example of how Special Contracts and related discounts will 20 be reflected in rates is set forth in Appendix D. 2l Additional terms specific to each State, including an Equalization Adjustment, are 22 reflected in Section XlV. 2017 Protocol Rocky Mountain Power Exhibit No. 1 Page 5 of 64 *,fi:::,):':$?l;li;ll 1 II. Effective Period and Expiration: 2 The Parties agree to support Commission adoption or use of the 2017 Protocol in all 3 PacifiCorp rate proceedings frled after December 31, 2016, or as otherwise agreed to by Parties 4 in Section XfV, up to and including December 31, 2018. 5 The 2017 Protocol will expire December 31, 2018, unless all State Commissions that 6 approved the 2017 Protocol determine, by no later than March 31, 2017, that the term of the 7 2017 Protocol will be extended by an optional one-year extension through December 31,2019. 8 In determining whether the 2017 Protocol should or should not be extended, each State 9 Commission can take such steps or provide such processes for public input as that Commission l0 determines to be necessary or appropriate under applicable State laws. 11 A Commissioner Forum will be held annually, beginning in January 2017, to discuss 12 inter-jurisdictional allocation issues and whether the 2017 Protocol should be extended for an 13 additional one-year term, as described above. 14 III. Classification of Resources: 15 All Resource Fixed Costs, Wholesale Contracts, and Shortterm Firm Purchases and Firm 16 Sales will be classified as 75 percent Demand-Related and 25 percent Energy-Related. All Non- 17 Firm Purchases and Sales will be classified as 100 percent Energy-Related. l8 IV. Allocation of Resource Costs and Wholesale Revenues: 19 Resources will be assigned to one of two categories for inter-jurisdictional allocation 20 purposes: State Resources or System Resources. A complete description of allocation factors to 2l be used is set forth in Appendix B. 22 There are four types of State Resources. The remaining types of Resources are System 23 Resources, which constitute the substantial majority of PacifiCorp's Resources. Benefits and 2017 Protocol Rocky Mountain Power Exhibit No. 1 Page 6 of 64 **i3l3,lll$?';llll 1 costs associated with each category and type of Resource will be assigned or allocated to 2 Jurisdictions on the following basis: 3 A. State Resources 4 Benefits and costs associated with the four types of State Resources will be 5 assigned as follows: 6 L Demand-Side Management ("DSM") Programs: Costs associated with 7 DSM Programs, including Class I DSM Programs, will be assigned on a 8 situs basis to the Jurisdiction in which the investment is made. Benefits 9 from these programs, in the form of reduced consumption and contribution 10 to Coincident Peak, will be reflected in the Load-Based Dynamic 1l Allocation Factors. 12 2. Portfolio Standards: Costs associated with Resources acquired to comply 13 with a Jurisdiction's Portfolio Standard adopted, either through legislative t4 enactment or a State's Commission, the portion of which exceeds the costs 15 PacifiCorp would have otherwise incurred, will be assigned on a situs 16 basis to the Jurisdiction adopting the Portfolio Standard. 17 3. Oualifirinq Facility Contracts: Costs associated with Qualifying Facility 18 Contracts, the portion of which exceeds the costs PacifiCorp would have 19 otherwise incurred acquiring Comparable Resources will be assigned on a 20 situs basis to the Jurisdiction that approved the confact. 21 4. Jurisdiction-Specific lnitiatives: Costs and benefits associated with 22 Resources acquired in accordance with a Jurisdiction-specific initiative 23 will be assigned on a situs basis to the Jurisdiction adopting the initiative. 2017 Protocol I 2 J 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 I2 13 I4 15 t6 t7 l8 T9 20 2I 22 B. Rocky Mountain Power Exhibit No. 'l PageT ot 64 Case No. PAC-E-15-16 Witness: Jeffrey K. Larsen This includes, but is not limited to, the costs and benefits of incentive programs, net-metering tariffs, feed-in tariffs, capacity standard programs, solar subscription programs, electric vehicle programs, and the acquisition of renewable energy certificates. System Resources All Resources that are not State Resources are System Resources and will be allocated as follows: 1. Generally, all Fixed Costs associated with System Resources and all costs incurred under Wholesale Contracts will be allocated based upon the System Generation ("SG") Factor. 2. Generally, all Variable Costs associated with System Resources will be allocated based upon the System Energy ("SE") Factor. 3. Revenues received by PacifiCorp under Wholesale Contracts will be allocated based upon the SG Factor. Equalization Adjustment The 2017 Protocol includes an Equalization Adjustment to be applied to each State's revenue requirement, as summaized in Section XlV, for purposes of ratemaking proceedings filed prior to the expiration of the 2017 Protocol. The Equalization Adjustment recognizes differences among the States in the 2010 Protocol Agreement implemented in each State and the respective treatment of the embedded cost differential ("ECD") adjustment - i.e. Baseline ECD, Dynamic ECD, or no ECD. The 2017 Protocol with the Equalization Adjustment is C. 6 2017 Protocol Rocky Mountain Power Exhibit No. 1 Page 8 of 64 Case No. PAC-E-15-16 Witness: Jeffrey K. Larsen 1 designed to allow PacifiCorp the opportunity to equitably allocate revenue 2 requirement components in rate recovery proceedings in the States. 3 V. Re-functionalization and Allocation of Transmission Costs and Revenues 4 Before filing any request to approve a reclassification of facilities as transmission or 5 distribution with FERC, PacifiCorp will submit filings seeking review and authorization of any 6 such reclassification with the State Commissions. The cost responsibility for any assets 7 reclassified under FERC policy will be assigned or allocated consistent with other assets in the 8 relevant function. 9 Costs associated with transmission assets, and firm wheeling expenses and revenues, will 10 be classified as 75 percent Demand-Related, 25 percent Energy-Related and allocated based 11 upon the SG Factor. Non-firm wheeling expenses and revenues will be allocated based upon the 12 SE Factor. In the event that PacifiCorp joins a regional independent system operator, the 13 allocation of transmission costs and revenues may be reevaluated and revised as provided for in 14 Section XIII. 15 VI. Assienment of Distribution Costs: 16 All distribution-related expenses and investment that can be directly assigued will be 17 directly assigned to the State where they are located. Those costs that cannot be directly 18 assigned will be allocated consistent with the factors set forth in Appendix B. 19 VII. Allocation of Administrative and General Costs: 20 Administrative and General Costs, General Plant costs, and tntangible Plant costs will be 2l allocated consistent with the factors set forth in Appendix B. 22 VIII. Allocation of Special Contracts: 23 Revenues associated with Special Contracts will be included in State revenues, and loads 2017 Protocol Rocky Mountain Power Exhibit No. 1 Page 9 of 64 **l3li lll$?i,-1i;13 1 of Special Contract customers will be included in Load-Based Dynamic Allocation Factors as 2 appropriate (see Appendix D). Special Contracts may or may not include Customer Ancillary 3 Service Contract attributes. Load curtailments and buy-through arrangements will be handled as 4 appropriate (see Appendix D). 5 IX. Allocation of Gain or Loss from Sale of Resources or Transmission Assets: 6 Any loss or gain from the sale of a Company-owned Resource or transmission asset will 7 be allocated based upon the allocation factor used to allocate the Fixed Costs of the Resource or 8 the transmission asset at the time of its sale. Each Commission will determine the appropriate 9 allocation of loss or gain allocated to that Jurisdiction as between customers and PacifiCorp 10 shareholders. 11 X. State Programs Regardins Access to Alternative Electricitv Suppliers: 12 A. Treatment of Oregon Direct Access Programs: 13 This Section describes treatment of loads lost to Oregon Direct Access Programs during 14 the term of the 2017 Protocol. 15 1. Customers electing PacifiCorp's one- and three-year Oregon Direct 16 Access Programs - The load of customers electing to be served on PacifiCorp's one- and 17 three-year Oregon Direct Access Programs will be included in the Load-Based Dynamic 18 Allocation Factors for all Resources, and the transition cost payments from these 19 customers will be situs assigned to Oregon. 20 2. Customers electing PacifiCorp's five year opt-out program under the 2l Oregon Direct Access Program - The treatment will be consistent with Order No. 15- 22 060, as clarified through Order No. 15-067, of the Oregon Public Utility Commission in 23 Docket UE 267, and Oregon Schedule 296, which allow Oregon Direct Access Program 2017 Protocol I 2 J 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 t2 13 t4 15 t6 t7 18 t9 20 2t 22 23 Rocky Mountain Power Exhibit No. 1 Page 10 of 64 *,i333 Tll$?Lll;ll Customers to permanently opt-out of cost-of-service rates after payment of ten years of transition costs in Oregon. During the ten-year period for which Oregon Direct Access Customers are paying hansition costs, the Oregon Direct Access Customers' loads will be included in Load-Based Dynamic Allocation Factors, and the transition cost payments from these customers will be situs-assigned to Oregon. At the end of the lO-year period covered by the transition cost payments, the loads of the Oregon Direct Access Customers will be excluded from Load-Based Dynamic Allocation Factors. Thereafter, if an Oregon Direct Access Customer elects to return to Oregon cost-of-service rates by providing four-years notice under Schedule 267, its load will be included in Load-Based Dynamic Allocation Factors at the time the customer returns to Oregon cost of service rates. 3. To the extent Oregon adopts new laws or regulations regarding Oregon Direct Access Programs, Oregon's treatment of loads lost to Oregon Direct Access Programs may be re-determined in a manner consistent with the new laws and regulations. In the event Oregon adopts such new laws or regulations, the Company will inform the State Commissions and the Parties of the same. B. Utah Eligible Customer Program: If, pursuant to Utah Code Annotated Section 54-3-32, an eligible customer in Utah transfers service to a non-utility energy supplier, the Public Service Commission of Utah will make determinations under Utah law as contemplated therein. The Company will inform the State Commissions and the Parties of the Public Service Commission of Utah's determinations. C. Other State Actions: In the event any State adopts laws or regulations governing customer access to alternative 2017 Protocol Rocky Mountain Power Exhibit No. 1 Page 'l'l of 64 Case No. PAC-E-I5-16 Witness: Jeffrey K. Larsen 1 electricity suppliers, the Company will inform the State Commissions and the Parties of the 2 same. 3 XI. Loss or Increase in Load: 4 Any loss or increase in retail load occurring as a result of condemnation or 5 municipalization, sale, or acquisition of new service territory that involves less than five percent 6 of system load, realignment of service territories, changes in economic conditions, or gain or loss 7 of large customers will be reflected in changes in the Load-Based Dynamic Allocation Factors. 8 The allocation of costs and benefits arising from merger, sale, or acquisition transactions 9 proposed by the Company involving more than five percent of system load will be considered on 10 a case-by-case basis in the course of Commission approval proceedings. 11 XII. Commission Regulation of Resources: 12 PacifiCorp will plan and acquire new Resources on a system-wide least-cost, least-risk 13 basis. Prudently incurred investments in Resources will be reflected in rates consistent with the 14 laws and regulations in each State, as approved by individual State Commissions. 15 XI[. Interpretation and Governance: 16 A. Issues of Interpretation 17 If questions of interpretation of the 2017 Protocol arise during rate proceedings, audits of 18 results of PacifiCorp's operations, or both, Parties will attempt, consistent with their legal 19 obligations, to resolve them in good faith in light of the language of the 2017 Protocol and the 20 intent of the Parties. 2l B. Commissioner Forum 22 A Commissioner Forum will be held annually beginning January 2017 to discuss the 23 2017 Protocol and other inter-jurisdictional allocation issues that may arise. All seated 10 2017 Protocol Rocky Mountain Power Exhibit No. 1 Page 12 of64 *,::::,::,:$?i;lill I commissioners from each Jurisdiction will be invited to participate in all Commissioner Forums. 2 Each Commissioner Forum will be a public meeting and all interested parties will be 3 allowed to attend. Prior to attending a Commissioner Forum, each Commission can take such 4 steps and provide such process for public input as the Commission determines to be necessary or 5 appropriate under applicable State laws. 6 At the Commissioner Forum, commissioners will be invited to discuss and may make 7 recommendations regarding extension of the 2017 Protocol and other inter-jurisdictional 8 allocation issues that may arise. 9 C. MSP Workgroup 10 The MSP Workgroup will be open to any utility regulatory agency, customer, and other I 1 person or entity potentially affected by inter-jurisdictional allocation procedures that expresses 12 an interest in participating. The MSP Workgroup may create sub-committees to investigate, 13 evaluate, or make recommendations as to specified issues. MSP Workgroup meetings may be 14 held in person or by telephone. 15 The Company will promptly convene one or more MSP Workgroup meetings: (i) to 16 discuss the possibility of a new inter-jurisdictional allocation agreement if any Commission 17 indicates that the 2017 Protocol should not be extended pursuant to Section II or as a result of 18 new developments pursuant to Section X, (iD to discuss an inter-jurisdictional allocation issue 19 identified by any Commission, or (iii) to discuss any other inter-jurisdictional allocation issue 20 raised by any interested stakeholders. MSP Parties will work in good faith to achieve resolution 2I of any issues brought before the MSP Workgroup. 22 Before each annual Commissioner Forum, PacifiCorp will convene an MSP Workgroup 23 meeting for the purpose of discussing and monitoring emerging inter-jurisdictional allocation 1l 2017 Protocol Rocky Mountain Power Exhibit No. 1 Page 13 of 64 *,'i313,]3-l$?=;lili 1 issues facing PacifiCorp and its customers, the status and implications of Rule 111(d), orthe 2 development of a regional independent system operator, in order to inform discussions at the 3 Commissioner Forum. PacifiCorp will provide reasonable staffing and resources to provide 4 minutes of any MSP Workgroup meeting, coordinate MSP Workgroup activities and conduct 5 studies and analysis as agreed to by the MSP Workgroup, and as suggested by the Commissioner 6 Forum. 7 D. Proposals for New Inter-Jurisdictional Allocation Procedures 8 Proposals for new inter-jurisdictional allocation procedures, including any changes to the 9 2017 Protocol, ranging from minor modifications to major modifications, may be submitted by 10 any Party or any Commission utilizing the 20t7 Protocol. Proposals shall be provided to the l l Company for the purpose of circulating the proposals to the other Parties and State Commissions 12 and initiating discussions to attempt to address and resolve specific concerns. 13 If any Party intends to propose a new inter-jurisdictional allocation procedure, the Party 14 will attempt, consistent with their legal obligations, to: (1) bring that proposal to the 15 Commissioner Forum or the MSP Workgroup and (2) resolve the proposal in good faith. 16 A Party's initial support or acceptance of the 2017 Protocol will not bind or be used 17 against that Party if unforeseen or changed circumstances, including new developments pursuant 18 to Section X, cause that Party to conclude that the 2017 Protocol no longer produces just and 19 reasonable results, reasonable cost recovery for the Company, or is not in the public interest. 20 Before a Party asks a Commission to deviate from the terms of the 2017 Protocol, the Parties, 2l will be invited by the Company to enter into a discussion, or series of discussions, to attempt to 22 address and resolve their concerns at MSP Workgroup meetings and/or a Commissioner Forum, 23 consistent with any applicable legal obligations. t2 2017 Protocol 1 2 Rocky Mountain Power Exhibit No. 1 Page 14 of64 Case No. PAC-E-15-16 \Mtness: Jeffrey K. Larsen E. InterdependencyamongCommissionApprovals The 2017 Protocol has been developed by the Parties as an integrated, interdependent, 3 organic whole. Support by any Party or Commission of the 2017 Protocol is expressly 4 conditioned upon similar support of the 2017 Protocol by the Commissions of at least the States 5 of Idaho, Oregon, Utah, and Wyoming, without material alteration. If a Commission materially 6 deletes, alters, or conditions approval of the 2017 Protocol, Parties shall promptly meet and 7 discuss the implications of the material alteration, and will have the opportunity to accept or 8 reject continued support of the 2017 Protocol in light of such action. 9 XIV. Additional State-Specific Terms: 10 For the period that the 2017 Protocol remains in effect, a2017 Protocol Adjustment will l1 be added to each State's annual revenue requirement. For Califomia, Idaho, Utah, and Wyoming, 12 the 2017 Protocol Adjustment is the sum of the Baseline ECD and the Equalization Adjustment. 13 For Oregon,the20lT Protocol Adjustment is the sum of the Baseline ECD, which is dynamic 14 with the parameters described in paragraph three below, and the Equalization Adjustment. The 15 Parties agree to an annual Equalization Adjustment of $9.074 million, with specific State-by- 16 State 2017 Protocol Adjustment impacts as summarized in this table: Total 201 7 Protocol Baseline ECD ** (9,578) (324) (8,238) * 0 836 (l ,851) 2017 ProtocolEqualiationAdjustrrent 9,074 324 2,600 4,400 150 I 2017 ProtocolAdjustrnent (0) (5,638) 4,400 986 (251) Revenue Califomia Utah Idaho * Oregoris 2017 Protocol Baseline ECD is dynamic ard will change over time with the pararnters descnbed inparagraph 3 below.

The Idaho Parties and PacifiCorp agree to an annual Idaho 2017 Protocol Adjustment of $0.986 million to be added to Idaho's 2017 Protocol revenue requirement. Idaho's Equalization Adjustment is $0.150 million. The Idaho 2017 Protocol Adjustment shall be included in base rates through a general rate case beginning January l, 2018, or to the extent that a case is filed so the rate effective date is later than that date, the Equalization Adjustment shall be deferred on a monthly basis ($12,500 per month) from January l, 2018, forward as a regulatory asset until the rate effective date of PacifiCorp's next Idaho general rate case at which time (l) the deferred costs and (2) the ongoing impact of Idaho's 2017 Protocol Adjustment shall be included in rates. 3. The Public Utility Commission of Oregon Staff ("Commission Staff'), the Citizens' Utility Board of Oregon ("CUB"), and PacifiCorp ("Oregon Parties"), agree to an Oregon Equalization Adjustment of $2.6 million. The Oregon Parties agree that Oregon's Equalization Adjustment of $2.6 million annually (or $216,667 monthly) be deferred from January 1,2017, until the 2017 Protocol Equalization Adjustment is reflected in base rates through the Company's next general rate case. The Oregon Parties agree that the 2017 Protocol Equalization Adjustment deferral will be reflected as a debit (reduction to the existing credit balance to be returned to customers) in the Open Access Transmission Tariff ("OATT") revenue deferral account originally established through docket IJE 246.r The Parties agree that the Company will file a new tariff to return to I As a result of the stipulation and Commission Order No. 12-493 in docket IJE-246, the Company filed for, and the Commission approved the Company's application to defer incremental OATT revenues from January l, 2013, until (Continued...)

The Company will distribute or present the results of its analysis, based on information available, no later than March 3I, 201,7. If PacifiCorp does not distribute or present the results of its analysis on or before March 31, 20L7, for each month the analysis is not provided after that date $216,667 will be credited to the OATT revenue deferral balance unless otherwise waived by the Commission for good cause. The Company agrees that during the effective period of this agreement regarding the 2017 Protocol, the Company will not have any pending general rate case that requests rates effective before January 1, 2018. Oregon Parties may file for deferrals during the general rate case stay-out period, but such filings will be subject to the Commission's guidelines for defenals established in docket UM I147, unless otherwise authorized by the Commission. This provision will not alter the operation or application of existing or new rate adjustment mechanisms authorizedby the Commission, including but not limited to PacifiCorp's Transition Adjustment Mechanism, the Power Cost Adjustment Mechanism, and the Renewable Adjustment Clause. The Oregon Parties agree that for the duration of the 2017 Protocol, Oregon's results of operations reports (...continued) these revenues are reflected in base rates. Commission OrderNos. 13-045, 14-023, and 15-020 approved the Company's applications to defer these incremental revenues for 2013, 2014, and 2015, respectively. l5 2017 Protocol I 2 J 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 1l t2 I3 t4 15 L6 1,7 18 19 20 2t 22 23 Rocky Mountain Power Exhibit No. 1 Page 17 of 64 **?313,Ihl$?=,li;ll and general rate case filings will reflect a Dynamic ECD calculated consistent with the 2010 Protocol inter-jurisdictional allocation methodology with the parameters as described below: r For the Company's first Oregon general rate case filing under the 2017 Protocol (which will be effective no earlier than January l, 2018), the Dynamic ECD value for Oregon will be set at a level no less than $8.238m (the baseline value of Oregon's ECD used to negotiate each State's contribution to the 2017 Protocol Equalization Adjustment), and will be capped at $10.5 million; and . If the 2017 Protocol is extended to 2019, and the Company files a second Oregon general rate case using the 2017 Protocol, the Dynamic ECD in that general rate case filing will be set at a level no less than $8.238m and will be capped at $11.0 million. The Dynamic ECD provisions apply only to the 2017 Protocol as an integrated agreement and do not in any way limit or compromise any party's ability to argue for a different ECD or hydro endowment calculation in any future inter-jurisdictional allocation methodologies. The Oregon Parties agree that unless there is formal action by the Public Utility Commission of Oregon to adopt an alternate allocation methodology by January 1.,2019, or unless the 2017 Protocol is extended through 2019 under the terms of the 2017 Protocol, PacifiCorp will use the Revised Protocol allocation method for general rate case frlings in Oregon after January I, 2019. The Oregon Parties have negotiated this settlement as an integrated agreement.

The Utah Parties and PacifiCorp agree to an annual Utah Equalization Adjustment of $4.4 million and a2017 Protocol Adjustment of the same amount. The Company agrees that it will not file a Utah general rate case or major plant addition case prior to May 1, 2016, and new rates will not be effective prior to January 1,2017.

Larsen 2017 Protocol - Appendix D Special Contracts Special Contracts without Ancillary Service Contract Attributes For allocation purposes Special Contracts without identifiable Ancillary Service Contract attributes are viewed as one transaction. Loads of Special Contract customers will be included in all Load-Based Dynamic Allocation Factors. When intemrptions of a Special Contract customer's service occur, the reduction in load will be reflected in the host jurisdiction's Load-Based Dynamic Allocation Factors. Actual revenues received from Special Contract customer will be assigned to the State where the Special Contract customer is located. See example in Table I Special Contracts with Ancillary Service Contract Attributes For allocation purposes Special Contracts with Ancillary Service Contract attributes are viewed as two transactions. PacifiCorp sells the customer electricity at the retail service rate and then buys the electricity back during the intem.rption period at the Ancillary Service Contract rate. Loads of Special Contract customers will be included in all Load-Based Dynamic Allocation Factors. When intemrptions of a Special Contract customer's service occur, the host jurisdiction's Load-Based Dynamic Allocation Factors and the retail service revenue are calculated as though the intemrption did not occur. Revenues received from Special Conffact customer, before any discounts for Customer Ancillary Service attributes of the Special Contract will be assigned to the State where the Special Contract customer is located. Discounts from tariffprices provided for in Special Contracts that recognize the Customer Ancillary Service Contract attributes of the Contract, and payments to retail customers for Customer Ancillary Services will be allocated among States on the same basis as System Resources.
