30 Tax Reform PPL is uniquely advantaged with operations in the U.K. With over half of our earnings in the U.K., tax reform would only impact our domestic utilities We have the flexibility on domestic vs. international financings to optimize the capital structure relative to interest deductibility Incremental tax on foreign earnings or deemed repatriation would be manageable PPL supports simplifying tax law and advancing the U.S. to be more competitive globally Our industry has worked successfully with policy makers to shape meaningful tax related legislation to minimize downside impacts, for example the 1986 tax reform and more recently the debate over taxes on dividend and capital gains We expect the benefits of tax reform realized by the regulated utilities to ultimately flow through to customers We have a significant pipeline of capital projects to enhance reliability and security that could help offset some of the potential rate base impacts resulting from tax reform 29

44 Retail Price Index - RPI Revenue: RPI affects 3 primary financial drivers for WPD: Revenues, O&M and Interest Expense In November 2015, tariffs for 2016/2017 and 2017/2018 were set using the forecasted RPI for the next two regulatory years. In November 2016, 2018/2019 tariffs were set using the forecasted RPI for that period. Each November, one additional year of tariffs will be set. In addition, the 2017/2018 revenues include a true-up for the actual vs. forecasted RPI for the 2015/2016 regulatory year. O&M impacted primarily by RPI adjustments to wages, including contract labor with a compounding effect realized in future periods. Approximately 13% of total U.K. debt is RPI index-linked debt. The lower the RPI, the lower the interest expense and vice versa. 43

46 U.K. Incentive Revenues Annual performance above or below the Ofgem targets for Customer Minutes Lost (CML), Customer Interruptions (CI), the Broad Measure of Customer Satisfaction Survey and Time to Connect is rewarded or penalized on a 2-year lag On a calendar year basis, WPD projects incentive revenues as follows at $1.30/ : Current Estimate $100M $90M - $110M $95M - $115M The following slides provide WPD s current and projected performance for the 2017/2018 regulatory year for quality of service and customer satisfaction incentive mechanisms 45
47 U.K. Incentive Revenue Quality of Service 2017/2018 Year-to-date Performance Customer Minutes Lost (CML) Customer Interruptions (CI) 63.9 CML and Ofgem target are based on a weighted average of all four DNOs. A measurement of the cumulative amount of minutes customers are without electricity. CI and Ofgem target are based on a weighted average of all four DNOs. A measurement of the cumulative amount of interruptions in a customer's electricity supply, per 100 customers. While there are separate CML and CI performance targets, performance is combined when determining the total earned reward. WPD projects 2017/2018 incentive revenue of approximately 43M (in 2012/2013 prices). (2012/13 prices) West Midlands East Midlands South Wales South West Total Max reward/penalty +/- 17.7M +/- 17.1M +/- 8.2M +/- 12.2M +/- 55.2M (1) Ofgem targets adjusted for YTD planned outages. Performance below the Ofgem target results in a reward. Performance above the Ofgem target results in a penalty. 46
48 U.K. Incentive Revenue Customer Satisfaction (2012/13 prices) West Midlands East Midlands South Wales South West Total Max reward/penalty +/- 4.0M +/- 4.0M +/- 1.9M +/- 2.8M +/- 12.7M The Broad Measure of Customer Satisfaction Survey rewards or penalizes DNOs for the levels of customer satisfaction.

57 Forward-Looking Information Statement Statements contained in this presentation, including statements with respect to future earnings, cash flows, dividends, financing, regulation and corporate strategy are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Although PPL Corporation believes that the expectations and assumptions reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, these statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the statements. The following are among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements: market demand for energy in our service territories, weather conditions affecting customer energy usage and operating costs; the effect of any business or industry restructuring; the profitability and liquidity of PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries; new accounting requirements or new interpretations or applications of existing requirements; operating performance of our facilities; the length of scheduled and unscheduled outages at our generating plants; environmental conditions and requirements and the related costs of compliance; system conditions and operating costs; development of new projects, markets and technologies; performance of new ventures; asset or business acquisitions and dispositions; any impact of hurricanes or other severe weather on our business; receipt of necessary government permits, approvals, rate relief and regulatory cost recovery; capital market conditions and decisions regarding capital structure; the impact of state, federal or foreign investigations applicable to PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries; the outcome of litigation against PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries; stock price performance; the market prices of equity securities and the impact on pension income and resultant cash funding requirements for defined benefit pension plans; the securities and credit ratings of PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries; political, regulatory or economic conditions in states, regions or countries where PPL Corporation or its subsidiaries conduct business, including any potential effects of threatened or actual terrorism or war or other hostilities; British pound sterling to U.S. dollar exchange rates; new state, federal or foreign legislation, including new tax legislation; and the commitments and liabilities of PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries. Any such forward-looking statements should be considered in light of such important factors and in conjunction with the factors and other matters in PPL Corporation's Form 10-K and other reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 56
58 Definitions of non-gaap Financial Measures Management utilizes "Earnings from Ongoing Operations" as a non-gaap financial measure that should not be considered as an alternative to reported earnings, or net income, an indicator of operating performance determined in accordance with GAAP. PPL believes that Earnings from Ongoing Operations is useful and meaningful to investors because it provides management's view of PPL's earnings performance as another criterion in making investment decisions. In addition, PPL's management uses Earnings from Ongoing Operations in measuring achievement of certain corporate performance goals, including targets for certain executive incentive compensation. Other companies may use different measures to present financial performance. Earnings from Ongoing Operations is adjusted for the impact of special items. Special items are presented in the financial tables on an after-tax basis with the related income taxes on special items separately disclosed. Income taxes on special items, when applicable, are calculated based on the effective tax rate of the entity where the activity is recorded. Special items include: Unrealized gains or losses on foreign currency economic hedges (as discussed below). Gains and losses on sales of assets not in the ordinary course of business. Impairment charges. Significant workforce reduction and other restructuring effects. Acquisition and divestiture-related adjustments. Other charges or credits that are, in management's view, non-recurring or otherwise not reflective of the company's ongoing operations. Unrealized gains or losses on foreign currency economic hedges include the changes in fair value of foreign currency contracts used to hedge GBP-denominated anticipated earnings. The changes in fair value of these contracts are recognized immediately within GAAP earnings. Management believes that excluding these amounts from Earnings from Ongoing Operations until settlement of the contracts provides a better matching of the financial impacts of those contracts with the economic value of PPL's underlying hedged earnings. 57
59 Definitions of non-gaap Financial Measures Management also utilizes the following non-gaap financial measures as indicators of performance for its businesses: "U.K. Gross Margins" is a single financial performance measure of the electricity distribution operations of the U.K. Regulated segment. In calculating this measure, direct costs such as connection charges from National Grid, which owns and manages the electricity transmission network in England and Wales, and Ofgem license fees (recorded in "Other operation and maintenance" on the Statements of Income) are deducted from operating revenues, as they are costs passed through to customers. As a result, this measure represents the net revenues from the delivery of electricity across WPD's distribution network in the U.K. and directly related activities. "Kentucky Gross Margins" is a single financial performance measure of the electricity generation, transmission and distribution operations of the Kentucky Regulated segment, LKE, LG&E and KU, as well as the Kentucky Regulated segment's, LKE's and LG&E's distribution and sale of natural gas. In calculating this measure, fuel, energy purchases and certain variable costs of production (recorded in "Other operation and maintenance" on the Statements of Income) are deducted from operating revenues. In addition, certain other expenses, recorded in "Other operation and maintenance", "Depreciation" and "Taxes, other than income" on the Statements of Income, associated with approved cost recovery mechanisms are offset against the recovery of those expenses, which are included in revenues. These mechanisms allow for direct recovery of these expenses and, in some cases, returns on capital investments and performance incentives. As a result, this measure represents the net revenues from electricity and gas operations. "Pennsylvania Gross Margins" is a single financial performance measure of the electricity transmission and distribution operations of the Pennsylvania Regulated segment and PPL Electric. In calculating this measure, utility revenues and expenses associated with approved recovery mechanisms, including energy provided as a PLR, are offset with minimal impact on earnings. Costs associated with these mechanisms are recorded in "Energy purchases," "Other operation and maintenance," (which are primarily Act 129 and Universal Service program costs), "Depreciation" (which is primarily related to the Smart Meter program) and "Taxes, other than income," (which is primarily gross receipts tax) on the Statements of Income. This measure represents the net revenues from the Pennsylvania Regulated segment's and PPL Electric's electricity delivery operations. These measures are not intended to replace "Operating Income," which is determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of overall operating performance. Other companies may use different measures to analyze and report their results of operations. Management believes these measures provide additional useful criteria to make investment decisions. These performance measures are used, in conjunction with other information, by senior management and PPL's Board of Directors to manage operations and analyze actual results compared with budget. Reconciliations of margins for future periods are not provided as certain items excluded from Operating Income are inherently subject to change and are not significant. 58
