from 35 percent to 21 percent ($23.6 million annually to be amortized back to its customers over a five year period. This started with 1Q 2018 results) •NWP will likely meet with customers and seek no flow back of Accumulated
Deferred Income Tax balances until another rate case is filed >Transco: •Transco’s Natural Gas Act Section 4 rate case will be filed on Aug. 31, 2018, and will assume completion of
roll-up
transaction prior to the end of the test period (Feb. 28, 2019) •Transco will file its income tax allowance based on the 21% federal tax rate and will likely be required ultimately to flow back to customers excess deferred income taxes over an
extended period of time •Transco anticipates that the rate case will reflect an overall rate increase even with the lower tax rate

Non-GAAP
Disclaimer >This presentation may include certain financial measures –Adjusted EBITDA, distributable cash flow, and dividend coverage ratio
–that are
non-GAAP
financial measures as defined under the rules of the SEC. >Our segment performance measure, Modified EBITDA, is defined as net income (loss) before income (loss) from discontinued
operations, income tax expense, net interest expense, equity earnings from equity-method investments, other net investing income, impairments of equity investments and goodwill, depreciation and amortization expense, and accretion expense associated
with asset retirement obligations for nonregulated operations. We also add our proportional ownership share (based on ownership interest) of Modified EBITDA of equity-method investments. >Adjusted EBITDA further excludes items of income or loss
that we characterize as unrepresentative of our ongoing operations. Management believes these measures provide investors meaningful insight into results from ongoing operations. >We define distributable cash flow as Adjusted EBITDA less
maintenance capital expenditures, cash portion of net interest expense, income attributable to noncontrollinginterests and cash income taxes, and certain other adjustments that management believes affects the comparability of results. Adjustments
for maintenance capital expenditures and cash portion of interest expense include our proportionate share of these items of our equity-method investments. >We also calculate the ratio of distributable cash flow to the total cash distributed
(coverage ratio). This measure reflects theamount of distributable cash flow relative to our cash dividend. >This news release is accompanied by a reconciliation of these
non-GAAP
financial measures to
their nearest GAAP financial measures. Management uses these financial measures because they are accepted financial indicators used by investors to compare company performance. In addition, management believes that these measures provide investors
an enhanced perspective of the operating performance of the Company’s assets and the cash that the business is generating. >Neither Adjusted EBITDA or distributable cash flow are intended to represent cash flows for the period, nor are they
presented as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operations. They should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for a measure of performance prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
