<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">On November&#160;20, 2025, Duke Energy Carolinas, LLC (&#8220;DEC&#8221;)
and Duke Energy Progress, LLC (&#8220;DEP&#8221;, and together with DEC, the &#8220;Companies&#8221;) each filed rate cases with the North
Carolina Utilities Commission (&#8220;NCUC&#8221;) seeking approval for increases in retail revenues. Both filings include requests for
Performance Based Regulation mechanisms, featuring a two-year Multi-Year Rate Plan as well as residential decoupling, performance incentive
mechanisms, and an earnings sharing mechanism.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">If approved by the NCUC, for DEC, the net increase in retail revenues
in year one would be approximately $727 million (10.9%), followed by $275 million (4.1%) in year two &#8211; a total 15.0% increase; and
for DEP, the net increase in retail revenues in year one would be approximately $528 million (10.9%), followed by $200 million (4.1%)
in year two &#8211; a total 15.1% increase. DEP&#8217;s revenue request is net of a proposed Production Tax Credit (&#8220;PTC&#8221;)
Rider, which would flow back monetized PTCs to customers beginning in 2027. DEC already has an established PTC Rider in place.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&#160;</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The Companies have requested the NCUC approve the requested total Year
1 rates to be effective no later than January&#160;1, 2027. Although a procedural schedule has not yet been established by the NCUC, hearings
are expected to commence in third-quarter 2026.</p>
