Item 1.01     Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

As previously reported, multiple complaints were filed against PacifiCorp following a series of wildfires in Oregon in September 2020, including certain complaints associated with the Echo Mountain Complex and Beachie Creek fires.

On May 31, 2024, PacifiCorp entered into a settlement agreement to fund $178 million to 403 claimants associated with the Echo Mountain Complex and Beachie Creek fires (the "Settlement"). The Settlement resolves substantially all of the claims filed by individual claimants in the consolidated Ashley Andersen complaints and the consolidated O'Keefe complaints and provides full and final release from any and all claims made by the settling claimants. Refer to Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of PacifiCorp in Part I, Item 1 and to Item 1. Legal Proceedings in Part II of the March 31, 2024, Form 10-Q, for a further discussion of the Labor Day 2020 wildfires and associated legal proceedings.

These statements are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act and include, but are not limited to, any statements relating to developments in the wildfire litigation, a matter that by its nature is very likely to change, is unpredictable and will continue to evolve over time, as well as the impact of such proceedings on PacifiCorp's operating results, cash flows, and liquidity. Forward looking statements can typically be identified by the use of forward-looking words, such as "will," "may," "could," "intend," "potential" and similar terms. These statements are based upon PacifiCorp's current intentions, assumptions, expectations and beliefs and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other important factors. Many of these factors are outside the control of PacifiCorp and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These factors include, among others, considerations that may be disclosed from time to time in PacifiCorp's filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") or in other publicly disseminated written documents. PacifiCorp undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities law.
