Under the Company's original consolidation proposal, its Houston and Texas Coast Divisions would have received a substantial rate increase while the Beaumont/East Texas and South Texas Divisions would have received a rate decrease. The parties in the Railroad Commission proceedings have reached a settlement agreement that greatly reduces the Company's requested revenue increase and is expected to result in a more equitable bill impact for customers statewide. We recommend that the Cities approve the proposed settlement agreement. We have attached for your consideration a proposed ordinance authorizing the settlement. If your City takes no action,we will assume your City is unopposed to the settlement. 2 The Company agreed to a revenue requirement increase of$5 million rather than the original requested revenue requirement increase of$38.8 million. Other key components of the proposed settlement include: • No rate increase for customers in the Beaumont/East Texas Service Area. The $5 million increase will be absorbed mainly by the Houston and Texas Coast Divisions. • No formal consolidation of service divisions. • 9.8% rate of return on equity, as opposed to CenterPoint's requested 10.5%. In addition to lowering base rates,this change will lessen the impact of future annual GRIP adjustments. • New rates go into effect in December 2024 rather than the current effective date of June 25,,2024. Table 1 below shows the expected bill impact on Beaumont/East Texas Division residential customers with average usage of 34 Ccf, excluding gas cost: Table 1 Comparison of Average Monthly Bills for Residential Customers Excluding Gas Cost CenterPoint Beaumont/East Texas Division Pressure Base Average Ccf Current Settlement Increase Res @ 14.65 pressure base 34 $36.58 $36.66 $0.08 Res @ 14.73 pressure base 34 $36.67 $36.72 $0.05 Res @ 14.95 pressure base 34 $36.82 $36.91 $0.09 As we balanced the costs and benefits of settlement versus continued litigation risk, we evaluated the strength of CenterPoint's revenue increase request compared to the litigation issues and proposed adjustments raised by the various city groups. Based on precedent, we expected significant downward adjustments to the Company's request. This downward assessment is supported by CenterPoint's agreement to settle for$5.0 million versus the requested$38.8 million request. Any reductions to CenterPoint's $38.8 million revenue requirement request would also decrease the Beaumont/East Texas Service Area's projected rate reduction such that the final litigated result would be a probable no rate change for Beaumont and East Texas customers. In other words,we believe the settlement agreement places Beaumont and East Texas customers in a similar position to what the litigated result would have been. 3 Given the uncertainty of successfully litigating each issue and litigation cost, a settlement of$5.0 million annual increase—that will not impact Beaumont/East Texas customers' rates—is reasonable. The Company is not expected to file another base rate case until 2029, so the agreed- upon rates will stay in place for at least the next five years. In the interim, the only rate changes expected to occur will be annual GRIP adjustments to the customer charge and adjustments for changes in gas market commodity costs. Given all of the above, I am recommending that Cities approve the proposed settlement agreement as detailed above. This will ensure that the Beaumont/East Texas Service Area rates remain unchanged from current rate levels. I have attached for your consideration an ordinance authorizing the settlement. In terms of timeline, we are asking each City to make a final decision at its next available meeting. If your City does not take action regarding the proposed settlement,we will assume your City remains unopposed to the settlement.Please forward passed ordinances to us at molly@mayhallvandervoort.com and danlawtonlawfirm@gmail.com. If you have any questions or need any further information,please feel free to call. Sincerely, /s/Daniel J.
