Todays Presentation Alaska Gasline Development Corporation Enabling Legislation – HB4 Alaska Stand Alone Gas Pipeline Project Scope Line Pipe Material Work Plan 2

ASAP The In-state Pipeline Project April 2010: HB 369 mandated that Alaska Housing Finance Corporation (AHFC) facilitate development of a plan for an in-state pipeline project. July 2010: AHFC established the Alaska Gasline Development Corporation (AGDC) as a subsidiary corporation to take over project planning and execution. ASAP is that project: the Alaska Stand Alone Pipeline. Also known as the in-state pipeline. April 2013: HB 4 mandates AGDC to advance an in-state gas pipeline from North Slope to Fairbanks and Southcentral to an open season and sanction. 3

Alaskas Energy Situation North Slope energy rich 30+ Trillion cubic feet of natural gas Cook Inlet Basin in decline Creating uncertainty as early as 2018 Cost of residential heat Fairbanks heating oil ~$30/MMBTU Cook Inlet natural gas $9 - $10/MMBTU 4

2013 Legislative Action – AGDC & HB4 Authorizes AGDC to construct gas pipeline from Prudhoe Bay to Fairbanks and Southcentral Alaska Established a new public corporation Authorizes AGDC to work on ASAP plus other projects, issue bonds, and determine ownership model Established a 7-member Board of Directors Authorizes AGDC to issue revenue bonds Creates new regulatory framework for contract carriers Requires all state departments, agencies, and public corporations to work expeditiously with AGDC on permits and authorizations Provided $355 million in 2013 to advance the ASAP project to open season and sanction 5
