<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During the past several years, CMS Energy&#146;s business strategy has emphasized improving its
consolidated balance sheet and maintaining focus on its core strength, which is Consumers&#146; utility
operations and service.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Consumers&#146; forecast calls for investing in excess of $6&nbsp;billion from 2009 through 2013, with a key
aspect of its strategy being the balanced energy initiative. The balanced energy initiative is a
comprehensive energy resource plan to meet Consumers&#146; projected short-term and long-term electric
power requirements with energy efficiency, demand management, expanded use of renewable energy,
development of new power plants, and pursuit of additional power purchase agreements to complement
existing generating sources.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Energy legislation signed into law in Michigan in 2008 requires that ten percent of Consumers&#146;
electric sales volume come from renewable energy sources by 2015. In compliance with this
legislation, Consumers filed a renewable energy plan with the MPSC in February&nbsp;2009 outlining its
plans to build or contract for additional renewable energy capacity of 200 MW by December&nbsp;31, 2013,
and an additional 300 MW of renewable energy capacity by December&nbsp;31, 2015. At the same time,
Consumers filed an energy optimization plan, also called for by the 2008 legislation, under which
Consumers will promote energy efficiency and provide incentives to reduce customer usage.
Consumers&#146; filings include a request for recovery of the cost of the renewable energy and energy
optimization measures. Consumers also expects to self-implement increased electric rates in May
2009 under the 2008 legislation.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Consumers has filed an air permit application with the MDEQ for its planned new 800 MW clean
coal-based plant, which is now in a public comment period. Consumers expects the MDEQ to act on
the request by the end of the year. Consumers&#146; filings at the MPSC also include a request for an
increase in rates to cover various costs, including capital additions under the balanced energy
initiative.

Federal legislation is being considered to establish a cap and trade system, or alternatively, to tax carbon dioxide emissions.
In addition, the EPA recently issued a proposed finding that greenhouse gases, including carbon
dioxide, contribute to air pollution that may endanger the public health and welfare, thus setting
the stage for regulation of carbon dioxide emissions under the Clean Air Act. CMS Energy and
Consumers are monitoring these developments for potential effects on their plans and operations.

that has been impacted adversely by the continued downturn and uncertainty in Michigan&#146;s automotive
industry. The financial market crisis, the effects of which became evident in a global economic
downturn during the fourth quarter of 2008, continues to result in a negative economic outlook. A
range of possible outcomes exists due to the uncertain financial market environment and ongoing
government policy responses. Consumers expects its annual 2009 sales to decline by three percent for the
electric utility and five percent for the gas utility and it projects slower growth in the longer
term. While CMS Energy and Consumers believe that their sources of liquidity will be sufficient to
meet their requirements, they continue to monitor developments in the financial and credit markets
and government policy responses to those developments for potential implications for CMS Energy&#146;s
and Consumers&#146; businesses and their future financial needs.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">For the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, net income was $69&nbsp;million compared with $102&nbsp;million
for 2008. Combined net income from Consumers&#146; electric and gas utility segments decreased,
reflecting increased seasonal variations associated with a new electric rate design structure,
decreased deliveries, the absence of gains from the sale of sulfur dioxide allowances recognized in
2008, and increases in uncollectible accounts, retirement benefit
expenses, and maintenance expenses.
These changes were partially offset by increased earnings from a
June&nbsp;2008 MPSC  electric rate order, a
more favorable customer sales mix at Consumers&#146; electric utility, and a December&nbsp;2008 MPSC gas
rate order.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Electric deliveries and rate increase: </B>For the three
months ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, electric
delivery revenue decreased by $1&nbsp;million compared with 2008. The
decrease is the result of a reduction in electric revenue of $19
million due to lower deliveries, largely offset by increased revenue
of $18 million primarily due to a favorable sales mix and impacts of the MPSC&#146;s June 2008 rate order. The rate order includes a
benefit of $36 million from a rate increase, largely offset by a $31 million
decrease caused by a new rate design structure that provides lower winter and higher
summer rates to encourage conservation.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Deliveries to end-use customers were 9&nbsp;billion kWh, a decrease of 0.4&nbsp;billion kWh or 4.3&nbsp;percent
compared with 2008, primarily reflecting unfavorable economic conditions in Michigan.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Power supply costs and related revenue: </B>For the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, PSCR revenue
increased by $4&nbsp;million compared with 2008. The increase primarily reflects the absence, in 2009,
of a reduction to 2008 revenue for amounts excluded from recovery in the 2006 PSCR reconciliation
case.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Other income: </B>For the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, other income decreased $4&nbsp;million
compared with 2008, due to a decrease in interest income reflecting lower levels of short-term cash
investments.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Maintenance and other operating expenses: </B>For the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, maintenance
and other operating expenses increased $34&nbsp;million compared with 2008. The increase was primarily
due to an $18&nbsp;million benefit in 2008 from an April&nbsp;2008 MPSC order allowing Consumers to retain a
portion of the proceeds from the 2006 sale of sulfur dioxide allowances. Also contributing to the
increase were higher pension and OPEB expenses of $7&nbsp;million due to market performance of
Consumers&#146; retirement benefit plan assets, scheduled plant maintenance outages of $7&nbsp;million,
and an additional $2&nbsp;million increase in other expenses.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Depreciation:</B>
The $6 million increase in depreciation expense reflects an increase
in plant in service.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>General taxes: </B>For the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, general tax expense increased $2&nbsp;million
compared with 2008, due primarily to higher property tax expense, reflecting higher capital
spending.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Income taxes: </B>For the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, income taxes decreased $14&nbsp;million
compared with 2008. The decrease is mainly due to lower earnings in 2009.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Gas deliveries and rate increase: </B>For the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, gas delivery revenue
decreased $2&nbsp;million compared with 2008. The decrease was primarily due to lower deliveries of $11
million reflecting unfavorable economic conditions in Michigan, largely offset by additional
revenue of $9&nbsp;million from the MPSC&#146;s December&nbsp;2008 gas rate order. Gas deliveries, including
miscellaneous transportation to end-use customers, were 131 bcf, a decrease of 6.5 bcf or 4.7
percent compared with 2008.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Gas wholesale and retail services, other gas revenue and other income: </B>For the three months ended
March&nbsp;31, 2009, gas wholesale and retail services, other gas revenue, and other income increased $1
million compared with 2008, primarily due to an increase in appliance service plan program revenue.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Maintenance
and other operating expenses: </B>For the three months ended
March&nbsp;31, 2009,  maintenance and other operating
expenses increased $13&nbsp;million compared with 2008. The increase is primarily due to an increase in
uncollectible accounts of $11&nbsp;million and higher OPEB expense of $2&nbsp;million due to market
performance of Consumers&#146; retirement benefit plan assets.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Depreciation: </B>
For the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2009,
depreciation expense decreased $6&nbsp;million compared with 2008.
The MPSC&#146;s December&nbsp;2008 gas rate order reduced
depreciation expense by $9 million and delayed collection of an equal
amount of depreciation in rates. This decrease is partially offset by
$3 million of higher depreciation expense on an increase in plant in
service.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>General
taxes: </B>The $1 million increase is due to increased property
taxes, reflecting higher capital spending.
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Income taxes: </B>For the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, income taxes decreased $6&nbsp;million
compared with 2008. The decrease reflects $4&nbsp;million due to lower earnings in 2009 and $2&nbsp;million
related to the treatment of property, plant and equipment, as required by MPSC orders.

increased $131&nbsp;million compared with 2008. This increase was due to the absence in 2009 of a
payment made by CMS ERM in 2008 to terminate electricity sales agreements, partially offset by
changes affecting Consumers&#146; cash provided by operating activities described in the following
paragraph.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">For the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2009, net cash provided by operating activities at Consumers
decreased $105&nbsp;million compared with 2008. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in net
income, net of non-cash transactions, the timing of cash receipts from accounts receivable, and
accounts payable timing differences. The sale of accounts receivable at the end of 2008 reduced
Consumers&#146; collections from customers during the first quarter of 2009. Consumers did not sell
accounts receivable at the end of 2007. These decreases were partially offset by the impact of
higher gas prices on inventory purchased in 2008 and sold in the first quarter of 2009. These
changes in gas inventory impact cash flow because Consumers buys gas during the summer months and
stores it for resale during the winter heating season.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In February&nbsp;2009, Michigan&#146;s governor also proposed a 45&nbsp;percent reduction in the use of fossil
fuel for electric generation by 2020. The governor&#146;s office has subsequently advised Consumers
that the 45&nbsp;percent reduction is only a suggested target, and is intended to apply only to
coal-based generation. Consumers cannot predict whether this

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Electric Customer Revenue Outlook: </B>Michigan&#146;s economy has suffered from closures and restructuring
of automotive manufacturing facilities and those of related suppliers and from the depressed
housing market. The Michigan economy also has been harmed by the present volatility in the credit
markets. Although Consumers&#146; electric utility results are not substantially dependent upon a
single customer, or even a few customers, customers in the automotive sector and their direct
suppliers represented four percent of Consumers&#146; total 2008 electric revenue and 2.5&nbsp;percent of
Consumers&#146; 2008 electric operating income. In the event that all of Consumers&#146; customers in the
automotive sector, their direct suppliers, and other significant related suppliers were to declare
bankruptcy, Consumers estimates that it could incur charge-offs of $15&nbsp;million to $30&nbsp;million for
accounts receivable and unbilled revenue. This estimate excludes potential indirect impacts on
other sectors and customers. Consumers cannot predict the financial impact of the Michigan economy
on its electric customer revenue.

compared with 2008. Consumers&#146; outlook for 2009 includes continuing growth in deliveries to its
largest-growing customer, which produces semiconductor and solar energy components. Excluding this
customer&#146;s growth, Consumers expects electric deliveries in 2009 to decrease four percent compared
with 2008. Consumers&#146; outlook reflects reduced deliveries associated with its investment in energy
efficiency programs included in the 2008 energy legislation, as well as recent projections of
Michigan economic conditions.

for the physical delivery of electricity primarily in the summer months. Consumers is planning for
a Reserve Margin of 12.7&nbsp;percent for summer 2009, or supply resources equal to 112.7&nbsp;percent of
projected firm summer peak load. Consumers has purchased capacity and energy covering its Reserve
Margin requirements for 2009 and 2010. Of the 2009 supply resources target, Consumers expects 96.4
percent to come from its electric generating plants and long-term power purchase contracts, with

electric sales volume come from renewable sources by 2015 with interim target requirements. Using
the guidelines of the standard, four percent of Consumers&#146; electric sales volume now comes from
renewable sources. The capacity standard requires Consumers to add new renewable energy capacity
of 200 MW by December&nbsp;31, 2013, and an additional 300 MW by December&nbsp;31, 2015, from owned renewable
energy sources or power purchase agreements. Consumers has secured more than 40,000 acres of land

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Clean Air Interstate Rule: </I>In 2005, the EPA adopted the CAIR, which required additional coal-based
electric generating plant emission controls for nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide. The CAIR was
appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. The court initially vacated
the CAIR and the CAIR federal implementation plan in its entirety, but subsequently, the court
changed course and remanded the rule to the EPA maintaining the rule in effect pending EPA
revision. As a result, the CAIR remains in effect, with the first annual nitrogen oxides
compliance year beginning January&nbsp;1, 2009. The EPA must now revise the rule to resolve the court&#146;s
concerns. The impacts of this revision are unknown, but stricter regulation is envisioned. A
draft rule is expected in 2010.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>State and Federal Mercury Air Rules: </I>In 2005, the EPA issued the CAMR, which required initial
reductions of mercury emissions from coal-based electric generating plants by 2010 and further
reductions by 2018. A number of states and other entities appealed certain portions of the CAMR to
the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. In 2008, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the
District of Columbia determined that the rules developed by the EPA were not consistent with the
Clean Air Act. The U.S. Supreme Court denied a request to review this decision. The EPA has
initiated the development of a revised rule based on MACT. The rule is expected to be proposed in
early 2010, at which time Consumers will have a better understanding of the potential impact.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In 2006, Michigan&#146;s governor proposed a plan that would result in mercury emissions reductions of
90&nbsp;percent by 2015. The MDEQ is reviewing public comments made in response to this proposal. If
this proposal becomes effective, Consumers estimates that the
associated costs will be $770&nbsp;million
by 2015.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Routine Maintenance Classification: </I>The EPA has alleged that some utilities have incorrectly
classified major plant modifications as RMRR rather than seeking permits from the EPA to modify
their plants. Consumers responded to information requests from the EPA on this subject in 2000,
2002, 2006, and 2008. Consumers believes that it has properly interpreted the requirements of RMRR. In
addition, in 2008, Consumers received a NOV for three of its
coal-based facilities alleging, among other things, violations of NSR
and PSD regulations relating to ten projects from 1986 to 1998
allegedly
subject to NSR review. Consumers is engaged in discussions with the
EPA on this matter. Depending upon the outcome of these discussions,
the EPA could bring legal action against Consumers and/or Consumers
could be required to install additional pollution control equipment at some
or all of its coal-based electric generating plants, surrender
emission allowances, engage in Supplemental Environmental Programs,
and/or pay fines. Additionally, Consumers would need to assess the
viability of continuing operations at certain plants.
Consumers cannot predict the financial impact or outcome of this matter.</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Greenhouse Gases</I>: The United States Congress has introduced proposals that would require reductions
in emissions of greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide. Consumers considers it likely that
Congress will enact greenhouse gas legislation, but the form of any final bill is difficult to
predict. These laws, or similar state laws or rules, if enacted, could require Consumers to
replace equipment, install additional equipment for emission controls, purchase allowances, curtail
operations, arrange for alternative sources of supply, or take other steps to manage or lower the
emission of greenhouse gases. The EPA recently issued a proposed finding that greenhouse gases,
including carbon dioxide, contribute to air pollution that may endanger the public health and
welfare. If other administrative actions are taken, such as finalization of the proposed
endangerment finding following public comment, it could lead to the regulation of carbon dioxide as
a pollutant under the Clean Air Act.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Although associated capital or operating costs relating to greenhouse gas regulation or legislation
could be material, and cost recovery cannot be assured, Consumers expects to have an opportunity to
recover these costs and capital expenditures in rates consistent with the recovery of other
reasonable costs of complying with environmental laws and regulations.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Water: </I>In 2004, the EPA issued rules that govern existing electric generating plant cooling water
intake systems. These rules require a significant reduction in the number of fish harmed by intake
structures at existing power plants. The EPA compliance options in the rule were challenged before
the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, which remanded the bulk of the rule back to the
EPA for reconsideration in 2007. In April&nbsp;2009, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of the
utility industry&#146;s position that the EPA can rely on cost-benefit analysis in setting the national
performance standards for fish protection. The EPA is planning to issue a revised draft rule in
late 2009.

recovery of MPSC-approved Stranded Costs through a surcharge on both full service and ROA
customers.</div>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">
<I>Power Supply Cost Recovery: </I>The PSCR process is designed to allow Consumers to recover all of its
power supply costs if incurred under reasonable and prudent policies
and practices. The MPSC
reviews these costs, policies, and practices in annual plan and reconciliation proceedings.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Electric Rate Case: </I>In November 2008, Consumers filed an application with the MPSC seeking an annual increase in
revenue of $214 million based on an 11 percent authorized return on equity. The filing seeks
recovery of costs associated with new plant investments including
Clean Air Act investments,
higher operating and maintenance costs, and the approval to recover costs associated with
Consumers&#146; advanced metering infrastructure program.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In April
2009, the MPSC Staff and intervenors filed testimony concerning the
rate case. The MPSC Staff recommended a revenue increase of $75
million, based on an 11 percent return on equity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">
This is the first electric rate case under the new streamlined regulatory process enacted by the
Michigan legislation in 2008. The new provisions generally allow utilities to self-implement rates
six months after filing, subject to refund, unless the MPSC finds
good cause to prohibit self-implementation. The new provisions
require the MPSC to issue an order 12 months after filing or
the rates, as filed, become permanent.

</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">
In April 2009, ABATE, an organization that represents certain large
customers and which intervened
in  Consumers&#146; electric rate case, filed a motion for a temporary order seeking to prevent or
delay Consumers&#146; self-implementation. Also, in April 2009, the MPSC issued an order requiring
Consumers to file tariff sheets showing the rates which it intends to
self-implement. Accordingly, on April 29, 2009, Consumers filed
tariff sheets indicating that it plans to self-implement an electric
rate increase in the annual amount of $179 million beginning May 14,
2009. The MPSC order also established a hearing scheduled for May 5,
2009 to address ABATE&#146;s  motion and other issues
related to Consumers&#146; self-implementation.
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">
Consumers cannot predict the financial impact or outcome of these proceedings. If the MPSC
takes action to prevent or delay Consumers&#146; self-implementation, it could have a materially
negative impact on Consumers&#146; earnings and cash flows.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">These interim Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared by CMS Energy and Consumers in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article&nbsp;10 of Regulation&nbsp;S-X. As a result,
CMS Energy and Consumers have condensed or omitted certain information and Note disclosures
normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States. CMS Energy and Consumers have reclassified
certain prior year amounts to conform to the presentation in the current year. The Consolidated
Financial Statements for the three months ended March&nbsp;31, 2008 have been updated for amounts
previously reported. In management&#146;s opinion, the unaudited information contained in this report
reflects all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary to ensure the fair presentation of
financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Consolidated Financial Statements should be read
in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes contained in CMS
Energy&#146;s and Consumers&#146; Form 10-K for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2008. Due to the seasonal nature
of CMS Energy&#146;s and Consumers&#146; operations, the results presented for this interim period are not
necessarily indicative of results to be achieved for the fiscal year.

</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>SFAS No.&nbsp;160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements &#151; an amendment to ARB
No.&nbsp;51: </I>Under this standard, which was effective for CMS Energy and Consumers January&nbsp;1, 2009,
ownership interests in subsidiaries held by third parties, previously referred to as minority
interests, are presented as noncontrolling interests and shown separately on the parent&#146;s balance
sheet within equity. In addition, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests is included
in net income on the income statement. CMS Energy has applied these provisions to current and
prior periods presented in its consolidated financial statements. This standard had no impact on
Consumers&#146; consolidated financial statements for the periods presented. The standard also affects
the accounting for changes in a parent&#146;s ownership interest, including deconsolidation of a
subsidiary. CMS Energy and Consumers will apply these provisions of the standard to any future
transactions.

Statement No.&nbsp;133: </I>This standard, which was effective for CMS Energy and Consumers January&nbsp;1,
2009, requires enhanced disclosures about how and why derivatives are used, how derivatives and
related hedged items are accounted for, and how derivatives and any related hedged items affect
financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. This standard did not have a material
effect on either CMS Energy&#146;s or Consumers&#146; consolidated financial statements. For additional
details on CMS Energy&#146;s and Consumers&#146; derivatives, see Note 6, Financial and Derivative
Instruments.

Participating Securities: </I>Under this standard, which was effective for CMS Energy and Consumers
January&nbsp;1, 2009, share-based payment awards that accrue cash dividends when common shareholders
receive dividends are considered participating securities if the dividends do not need to be
returned to the company when the employee forfeits the award. This standard applies to CMS
Energy&#146;s outstanding unvested restricted stock awards, which are considered participating
securities and thus are included in the computation of basic EPS. Implementation of this standard
for CMS Energy did not have a material impact for the first quarters of 2008 and 2009.
Retrospective implementation of this standard at CMS Energy will reduce basic and diluted EPS by
$0.01 for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2008. This standard had no impact on Consumers&#146; consolidated
financial statements.

Own Stock: </I>This standard, which was effective for CMS Energy and Consumers January&nbsp;1, 2009,
establishes criteria for determining whether freestanding instruments or embedded features are
considered &#147;indexed to an entity&#146;s own stock&#148; for the purpose of assessing potential derivative
accounting or balance sheet classification. The standard applies to all outstanding instruments at
January&nbsp;1, 2009, with transition impacts recognized as a cumulative effect adjustment to the
opening balance of retained earnings. This guidance applies to the equity conversion features in
CMS Energy&#146;s contingently convertible senior notes and preferred stock. These conversion features
have been exempted from derivative accounting because they are indexed to CMS Energy&#146;s own stock
and would be classified in stockholders&#146; equity. These features are still considered indexed to
CMS Energy&#146;s own stock under this new guidance, and thus, this standard had no impact on CMS
Energy&#146;s or Consumers&#146; consolidated financial statements.

third-party credit enhancement or guarantee supporting the liability. The standard had no impact
on either CMS Energy&#146;s or Consumers&#146; consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March
31, 2009. The standard will cause CMS Energy and Consumers to adjust the methods they use to
determine the fair value of certain long-term debt instruments for their fair value disclosures,
which will be required quarterly starting with the quarter ending
June&nbsp;30, 2009. Neither CMS Energy nor
Consumers expects the impact on the fair values disclosed to be significant.

Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly: </I>The
standard, which will be effective for CMS Energy and Consumers for the quarter ending June&nbsp;30,
2009, provides guidance on determining whether there has been a significant decrease in market
activity for an asset or liability and whether quoted prices may reflect distressed transactions.
The guidance indicates that entities should not rely on distressed prices in determining fair
value, but may instead use alternative valuation techniques, such as discounting future cash flows
assuming an orderly transaction. The standard will also require quarterly disclosures on the
inputs and valuation techniques used in CMS Energy&#146;s and Consumers&#146; fair value measurements, in
addition to the annual disclosures now required. Neither CMS Energy
nor Consumers expects the
implementation of this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated income, cash flows,

standard, which will be effective for CMS Energy and Consumers for the quarter ending June&nbsp;30,
2009, amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance for debt securities. Entities will no
longer need to assert both the intent and ability to hold an impaired debt security until recovery
to avoid recording an other-than-temporary impairment. Instead, an entity will consider whether it
intends to sell the security or whether it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell
the security prior to recovery. If either of these criteria are met, the full impairment should be
recognized in earnings. If neither criteria is met, only impairments due to credit losses will be
recorded to earnings, while impairments related to other factors will be recorded to other
comprehensive income. The standard also includes additional
disclosure requirements. Neither CMS Energy
nor Consumers expects the implementation of this standard to
have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

these disclosures were required only annually. The standard also requires quarterly disclosure of

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">SFAS No.&nbsp;157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands
disclosures about fair value measurements. It does not require any new fair value measurements,
but applies to fair value measurements recorded or disclosed under other accounting standards. The
standard defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to
transfer a liability in an orderly exchange between market participants, and requires that fair
value measurements incorporate all assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an
asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. The standard became effective on January&nbsp;1,
2009 for fair value measurements for nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recorded or
disclosed at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The implementation of SFAS No.&nbsp;157 for these
items did not have a material effect on either CMS Energy&#146;s or Consumers&#146; consolidated financial
statements.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">SFAS No.&nbsp;157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes inputs used to measure fair value

by the DOJ regarding this matter. Although CMS Energy has not received any formal notification
that the DOJ has completed its investigation, the DOJ&#146;s last request for information occurred in
November&nbsp;2003, and CMS Energy completed its response to this request in May&nbsp;2004. CMS Energy is

originally filed in California federal court. All CMS Energy defendants were dismissed from
Missouri Public Service Commission, a state action, and Breckenridge, a federal action. Appeals
are expected in both cases. Recently, CMS Energy was also dismissed from three federal cases,
while the other CMS Energy defendants remain. CMS Energy defendants were also dismissed from a
federal case in Wisconsin, but the plaintiffs have refiled the complaint in Michigan federal court.
In addition, the Tennessee Supreme Court has recently granted the CMS
Energy defendants&#146; application for leave to appeal the Tennesse
class action lawsuit. Other cases in several jurisdictions remain
pending.</DIV>

complaint was filed in March 2009 in circuit court in Wood
County, Wisconsin, against CMS Energy defendants, along with 19 other
non-CMS Energy companies, alleging conspiracy to restrain trade

inaccurate natural gas price reporting. CMS Energy defendants expect
to remove the case to federal court. CMS Energy cannot predict the financial

under an agreement with the MDEQ, third parties constructed a golf course and park over several
abandoned CKD piles left over from the former cement plant operations on the Bay Harbor site. The
third parties also undertook a series of remedial actions, including constructing a leachate
collection system at an identified seep. In 2002, CMS Energy sold its interest in Bay Harbor, but
retained its obligations under environmental indemnifications entered into at the start of the
project.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In 2005, the EPA, along with CMS Land and CMS Capital, voluntarily executed an AOC under Superfund
and approved a Removal Action Work Plan to address contamination issues at Bay Harbor. Collection
systems required under the plan have been installed and effectiveness monitoring of the systems at
the shoreline is ongoing. CMS Land, CMS Capital, and the EPA have agreed upon augmentation
measures to address areas where pH measurements are not satisfactory. The augmentation measures
are being implemented and are expected to be completed in 2009.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In 2008, the MDEQ and the EPA granted permits for CMS Land or its affiliate, Beeland, to construct
and operate a deep injection well in Antrim County, Michigan. Certain environmental groups, a
local township, and a local county filed lawsuits appealing the permits. One appeal relating to
the permit remains pending in the state court. Groups opposed to the injection well filed a
lawsuit in Antrim County against development of the well and in January&nbsp;2009, the trial judge
issued an injunction. Beeland filed an application for leave to appeal the court&#146;s order with the
Michigan Court of Appeals.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Quicksilver Resources, Inc.: </B>In 2001, Quicksilver sued CMS MST in Texas state court in Fort Worth,
Texas for breach of contract in connection with a base contract for the sale and purchase of
natural gas. The jury verdict awarded Quicksilver no compensatory damages but $10&nbsp;million in
punitive damages. In 2007, the trial court vacated the jury award of punitive damages but held
that the contract should be rescinded prospectively. The judicial rescission of the contract
caused CMS Energy to record a charge in the second quarter of 2007 of $24&nbsp;million, net of tax. CMS
MST has filed a notice of appeal with the Texas Court of Appeals. Quicksilver has filed a cross
appeal, where it claims that the contract should be rescinded from its inception, rather than
merely from the date of the judgment. Although CMS Energy believes Quicksilver&#146;s position to be
without merit, if the court were to grant the relief requested by Quicksilver, it could result in a
loss of up to $10&nbsp;million.

measures at TSU. CMS Viron sold the master lease for the project to a third-party, which
transferred its interest to State Street Bank. Although the university accepted the improvements,
it refused to pay on the grounds that the Texas Board of Higher Education had not approved the
expenditure. In 2002, State Street Bank sued CMS Viron in the District Court of Harris County,
Texas because state law made it difficult to sue TSU. The plaintiffs are seeking $6&nbsp;million plus

that CMS Energy owes $142&nbsp;million in taxes in connection with that sale. CMS Energy concluded
that the government&#146;s tax claim is without merit and the purchaser of CMS Oil and Gas submitted a
response to the government rejecting the claim. The government of Equatorial Guinea has indicated
that it still intends to pursue its claim. CMS Energy cannot predict the financial impact or

assessments on Jorf Lasfar attributable to tax years prior to the sale. In December&nbsp;2007, the
Moroccan tax authority concluded its audit of Jorf Lasfar for tax years 2003 through 2005. The
audit asserted deficiencies in certain corporate and withholding taxes. In January&nbsp;2009, CMS
Energy paid $18&nbsp;million, which it charged against a tax indemnification liability established when
it recorded the sale of Jorf Lasfar, and accordingly, the payment did not affect earnings. The
Moroccan tax authority may also assess taxes for 2006. CMS Energy cannot predict the financial

overriding royalty interest in production from the Alba field, filed a lawsuit in Harris County
District Court in Texas against CMS Energy, CMS Oil and Gas and other defendants alleging that his
overriding royalty payments related to Alba field production were improperly calculated. CMS Oil
and Gas believes that Barr was properly paid on gas sales and that he was not entitled to the
additional overriding royalty payment sought. All parties signed a confidential settlement
agreement in 2004. The settlement resolved claims between Barr and the defendants, and the
involved CMS Energy entities reserved all defenses to any indemnity claim relating to the
settlement. Issues exist between Marathon and certain current or former CMS Energy entities as to
the existence and scope of any indemnity obligations to Marathon in connection with the matter. In
April&nbsp;2008, Marathon indicated its intent to pursue the indemnity claim, and present and former CMS
Energy entities and Marathon entered into a one-year agreement tolling the statute of limitations
on any claim by Marathon under the indemnity. In April&nbsp;2009, certain Marathon entities filed a
claim in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas against CMS
Enterprises for indemnification. CMS Energy entities dispute Marathon&#146;s claim, and will vigorously
oppose it. CMS Energy entities also will assert that Marathon has suffered minimal, if any,
damages. CMS Energy cannot predict the outcome of this matter. If Marathon&#146;s claim were
sustained, it would have a material effect on CMS Energy&#146;s future earnings and cash flow.

regulations. Generally, Consumers has been able to recover, in customer rates, the costs to
operate its facilities in compliance with these laws and regulations.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Cleanup and Solid Waste: </I>Under the NREPA, Consumers will ultimately incur investigation and
response activity costs at a number of sites. Consumers believes that these costs will be
recoverable in rates under current ratemaking policies.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Consumers is a potentially responsible party at a number of contaminated sites administered under
the Superfund. Superfund liability is joint and several. However, many other creditworthy parties
with substantial assets are potentially responsible with respect to the individual sites. Based on
its experience, Consumers estimates that its share of the total liability for known Superfund sites
will be between $1&nbsp;million and $11&nbsp;million. Various factors, including the number of potentially
responsible parties involved with each site, affect Consumers&#146; share of the total liability. As of
March&nbsp;31, 2009, Consumers has recorded a liability of $2&nbsp;million, the minimum amount in the
estimated range of possible outcomes of estimated probable Superfund liability, in accordance with
FIN 14.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The timing of payments related to Consumers&#146; investigation and response activities at its Superfund
and NREPA sites is uncertain. Periodically, Consumers receives information about new sites, which
leads it to review its response activity estimates. Any significant change in the underlying
assumptions, such as an increase in the number of sites, different remediation techniques, nature
and extent of contamination, and legal and regulatory requirements, could affect its estimates of
NREPA and Superfund liability.

replaced part of the PCB material with non-PCB material. Since proposing a plan to take action
with respect to the remaining materials, Consumers has had several communications with the EPA.

permits. The utility boilers are located at the Karn/Weadock Generating Complex, Campbell Plant,
Cobb Electric Generating Station and Whiting Plant, which are all in Michigan. Consumers has

2002, 2006, and 2008. Consumers believes that it has properly interpreted the requirements of RMRR. In
addition, in 2008, Consumers received a NOV for three of its
coal-based facilities alleging, among other things, violations of NSR
and PSD regulations relating to ten projects from 1986 to 1998
allegedly
subject to NSR review. Consumers is engaged in discussions with the
EPA on this matter. Depending upon the outcome of these discussions,
the EPA could bring legal action against Consumers and/or Consumers
could be required to install additional pollution control equipment at some
or all of its coal-based electric generating plants, surrender
emission allowances, engage in Supplemental Environmental Programs,

certain generation equipment covered by the NERC standards for maintenance and testing of certain
electrical protection equipment was not covered by Consumers&#146; Generation Reliability Compliance
Program. In September&nbsp;2008, Consumers submitted a mitigation plan, which was completed in December
2008 and was accepted by RFC in March&nbsp;2009. In
February&nbsp;2009, Consumers received an initial notice of alleged
violation and a
request for information on its internal NERC compliance program from RFC. It responded to this
request in March&nbsp;2009. Consumers also responded to an additional information request in April
2009. There is a limited history with regard to penalties from NERC, as 2008 was the first year

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Litigation: </B>The transmission charges Consumers pays to MISO have been subject to regulatory review
and recovery through the annual PSCR process. Michigan&#146;s attorney general has argued that the
statute governing the PSCR process does not permit recovery of transmission charges in that manner
and that those expenses should be considered in general rate cases. Several decisions of the
Michigan Court of Appeals have ruled against the Michigan attorney general&#146;s arguments, but in
September&nbsp;2008, the Michigan Supreme Court granted the Michigan attorney general&#146;s applications for
leave to appeal two of those decisions. If the Michigan Supreme Court accepts the attorney
general&#146;s position, Consumers and other electric utilities will be required to obtain recovery of
transmission charges through an alternative ratemaking mechanism. Consumers expects a decision by
the Michigan Supreme Court on these appeals by mid-2009. In addition, if Michigan&#146;s attorney
general were to prevail, it would cause at least a temporary disruption in Consumers&#146; recovery of
transmission costs, including past costs recoverable through the PSCR clause. Consumers believes
that such costs are legitimate and fully recoverable, but it cannot predict the financial impact or
outcome of this matter.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In April
2009, the MPSC Staff and intervenors filed testimony concerning the
rate case. The MPSC Staff recommended a revenue increase of $75
million, based on an 11 percent return on equity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">This is the first electric rate case under the new streamlined regulatory process enacted by the
Michigan legislation in 2008. The new provisions generally allow utilities to self-implement rates
six months after filing, subject to refund, unless the MPSC finds good cause to prohibit
self-implementation. The new provisions require the MPSC to issue an order 12&nbsp;months after filing
or the rates, as filed, become permanent. </DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">
In April 2009, ABATE, an organization that represents certain large
customers and which intervened
in  Consumers&#146; electric rate case, filed a motion for a temporary order seeking to prevent or
delay Consumers&#146; self-implementation. Also, in April 2009, the MPSC issued an order requiring
Consumers to file tariff sheets showing the rates which it intends to
self-implement. Accordingly, on April 29, 2009, Consumers filed
tariff sheets indicating that it plans to self-implement an electric
rate increase in the annual amount of $179 million beginning May 14,
2009. The MPSC order also established a hearing scheduled for May 5,
2009 to address ABATE&#146;s  motion and other issues
related to Consumers&#146; self-implementation.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Consumers
cannot predict the financial impact or outcome of these proceedings.
If the MPSC takes action to prevent or delay Consumers&#146;
self-implementation, it could have a materially negative impact on
Consumers&#146; earnings and cash flows.
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Palisades Regulatory Proceedings: </B>The MPSC order approving the Palisades sale transaction required
that Consumers credit $255&nbsp;million of excess sales proceeds and decommissioning amounts to its
retail customers by December&nbsp;2008. There are additional excess sales proceeds and decommissioning
fund balances of $135&nbsp;million above the amount in the MPSC order. The MPSC order in Consumers&#146;
2007 electric rate case instructed Consumers to offset the excess sales proceeds and
decommissioning fund balances with $26&nbsp;million of transaction costs from the Palisades sale,
leaving a remaining balance of $109&nbsp;million, excluding interest. The distribution of these funds
is still pending with the MPSC.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>DOE Litigation: </I>In 1997, a United States Court of Appeals decision confirmed that the DOE was to
begin accepting deliveries of spent nuclear fuel for disposal by January&nbsp;1998. Subsequent United

been successful in producing more specific relief for the DOE&#146;s failure to accept the spent nuclear
fuel.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">A number of court decisions support the right of utilities to pursue damage claims in the United
States Court of Claims against the DOE for failure to take delivery of spent nuclear fuel.
Consumers filed a complaint in 2002. If Consumers&#146; litigation against the DOE is successful,
Consumers plans to use any recoveries as reimbursement for the incurred costs of spent nuclear fuel
storage during Consumers&#146; ownership of Palisades and Big Rock. Consumers cannot predict the
financial impact or outcome of this matter. The sale of Palisades and the Big Rock ISFSI did not
transfer the right to any recoveries from the DOE related to costs of spent nuclear fuel storage
incurred during Consumers&#146; ownership of Palisades and Big Rock.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Big Rock Decommissioning: </I>The MPSC and the FERC regulate the recovery of costs to decommission Big
Rock. In 2000, Consumers stopped funding a Big Rock trust fund because the MPSC-authorized
decommissioning surcharge collection period expired. The level of funds provided by the trust fell
short of the amount needed to complete decommissioning. As a result, Consumers provided $44
million of corporate contributions for decommissioning costs. Consumers also paid $30&nbsp;million to
Entergy to assume ownership and responsibility for the Big Rock ISFSI and paid $55&nbsp;million for
nuclear fuel storage costs incurred as a result of the DOE&#146;s failure to accept spent nuclear fuel
on schedule. At March&nbsp;31, 2009, Consumers has a $129&nbsp;million regulatory asset recorded on its
Consolidated Balance Sheets for these costs.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In 2008, Consumers filed an application with the MPSC seeking the deferral of ratemaking treatment
for the recovery of its nuclear fuel storage costs and the payment to Entergy, until the litigation
regarding these costs is resolved in the federal courts. In the application, Consumers is seeking
to recover the $44&nbsp;million Big Rock decommissioning shortfall from customers. Consumers cannot
predict the outcome of this proceeding.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Nuclear Fuel Disposal Cost: </I>Consumers deferred payment for disposal of spent nuclear fuel used
before April&nbsp;7, 1983. Its DOE liability is $163&nbsp;million at March&nbsp;31, 2009. This amount includes
interest, and is payable upon the first delivery of spent nuclear fuel to the DOE. Consumers
recovered the amount of this liability, excluding a portion of interest, through electric rates.
In conjunction with the sale of Palisades and the Big Rock ISFSI, Consumers retained this
obligation and provided a $162&nbsp;million letter of credit to Entergy as security for this obligation.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Gas Environmental Matters: </B>Consumers expects to incur investigation and remediation costs at a
number of sites under the NREPA, a Michigan statute that covers environmental activities including
remediation. These sites include 23 former manufactured gas plant facilities. Consumers operated
the facilities on these sites for some part of their operating lives. For some of these sites, it
has no current ownership or may own only a portion of the original site. In December&nbsp;2008,
Consumers estimated its remaining costs to be between $38&nbsp;million and $52&nbsp;million. Consumers
expects to fund most of these costs through proceeds from insurance settlements and MPSC-approved
rates.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">At March&nbsp;31, 2009, Consumers has a liability of $38&nbsp;million and a regulatory asset of $68&nbsp;million
that includes $30&nbsp;million of deferred MGP expenditures. The timing of payments related to the
remediation of Consumers&#146; manufactured gas plant sites is uncertain. Consumers expects annual
response activity costs to range between $5&nbsp;million and $6&nbsp;million over the next five years.
Consumers periodically reviews these response activity cost estimates. Any significant change in
the underlying assumptions, such as an increase in the number of sites, changes in remediation
techniques, or legal and regulatory requirements, could affect Consumers&#146; estimates of annual
response activity costs and MGP liability.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>FERC Investigation: </B>In February&nbsp;2008, Consumers received a data request relating to an
investigation the FERC is conducting into possible violations of the FERC&#146;s posting and competitive
bidding regulations related to releases of firm capacity on natural gas pipelines. Consumers
responded to the FERC&#146;s first data request in the first quarter of 2008. The FERC has also taken
depositions and Consumers has responded to additional data requests.
Consumers cannot predict the
financial impact or outcome of this matter.

indemnified the purchaser for losses resulting from various matters, including claims related to
tax disputes, claims related to power purchase agreements, and the failure of title to the assets or
stock sold to the purchaser by CMS Energy subsidiaries. Except for items described elsewhere in
this Note, CMS Energy believes the likelihood of loss to be remote for the indemnifications not

to the indemnification to TAQA described in the preceding paragraphs. The TAQA indemnification

    <TD>The maximum obligation includes an $85&nbsp;million guarantee by Consumers, issued in 1987, of the
MCV Partnership&#146;s nonperformance under a steam and electric power agreement with Dow. Consumers
sold its interests in the MCV Partnership and the FMLP. The sales agreement calls for the
purchaser, an affiliate of GSO Capital Partners and Rockland Capital Energy Investments, to pay $85
million, subject to certain reimbursement rights, if Dow terminates an agreement under which the
MCV Partnership provides it steam and electric power. This agreement expires in March&nbsp;2016,
subject to certain terms and conditions. The purchaser secured its reimbursement obligation to
Consumers with an irrevocable letter of credit of up to $85&nbsp;million.</TD>

payment of common stock dividends by CMS Energy was limited to $629&nbsp;million.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Under the provisions of its articles of incorporation, at March&nbsp;31, 2009, Consumers had $351
million of unrestricted retained earnings available to pay common stock dividends to CMS Energy.
Provisions of the Federal Power Act and the Natural Gas Act appear to
restrict dividends payable by Consumers to the
amount of Consumers&#146; retained earnings. Several decisions from the FERC suggest that under a
variety of circumstances common stock dividends from Consumers would not be limited to amounts in
Consumers&#146; retained earnings. Any decision by Consumers to pay
 dividends in excess of retained earnings would be based on
specific facts and circumstances and would result only after a formal regulatory filing process.

contingently convertible securities dilute EPS to the extent that the conversion value, which is

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Derivative Instruments: </B>In order to limit CMS Energy&#146;s and Consumers&#146; exposure to certain market
risks, primarily changes in commodity prices, interest rates, and foreign exchange rates, CMS
Energy and Consumers may enter into various risk management contracts, such as forward contracts,
futures, and swaps. In entering into these contracts, they follow established policies and
procedures, under the direction of an executive oversight committee consisting of senior management
representatives and a risk committee consisting of business unit
managers. Neither CMS Energy nor
Consumers holds any of its derivatives for trading purposes.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The
contracts used to manage market risks may qualify as derivative instruments that are
subject to derivative accounting under SFAS No.&nbsp;133. If a contract is a derivative and does not
qualify for the normal purchases and sales exception under SFAS
No.&nbsp;133, the contract is
recorded  on the  balance sheet at its fair value. Each quarter, the
resulting asset or liability is adjusted to reflect any change in the fair value of the contract, a practice
known as marking the contract to market. Since none of CMS
Energy&#146;s or Consumers&#146; derivatives
have been designated as accounting hedges under SFAS No.&nbsp;133,  all mark-to-market gains
and losses are reported in earnings. For a discussion of how CMS Energy and
Consumers determine the fair value of their
derivatives, see Note 2, Fair Value Measurements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Commodity Price Risk</I>: In order to support ongoing operations, CMS Energy and Consumers enter into
contracts for the future purchase and sale of various commodities, such as electricity, natural
gas, and coal. These forward contracts are generally long-term in nature and result in physical
delivery of the commodity at a contracted price. Most of these contracts are not subject to
derivative accounting under SFAS No.&nbsp;133 because:

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CMS Energy&#146;s and Consumers&#146; coal purchase contracts are not derivatives because there is not an
active market for the coal they purchase. If an active market for coal develops in the future,
some of these contracts may qualify as derivatives. For Consumers, which is subject to regulatory
accounting, the resulting mark-to-market gains and losses would be offset by changes in regulatory
assets and liabilities and would not affect net income. For other subsidiaries, CMS Energy does
not believe the resulting mark-to-market impact on earnings would be material.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CMS ERM has not designated its contracts to purchase and sell electricity and natural gas as normal
purchases and sales under SFAS No.&nbsp;133 and, therefore, CMS Energy accounts for those contracts as
derivatives. At March&nbsp;31, 2009, CMS ERM held a forward contract for the physical sale of 912 GWh
of electricity through 2015 on behalf of one of CMS Energy&#146;s non-utility generating plants. CMS
ERM also held futures contracts through 2011 as an economic hedge of 58&nbsp;percent of the generating
plant&#146;s natural gas requirements needed to serve a steam sales contract, for a total of 1.5 bcf of
natural gas. In its role as a marketer of natural gas for third-party producers, CMS ERM also held
forward contracts to purchase 10.7 bcf of natural gas and to sell 9.5 bcf of natural gas through
2010.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Consumers entered into two financial contracts as an economic hedge of the price of gasoline and
diesel fuel it purchases for its fleet vehicles and equipment. Under these agreements, Consumers
has locked in a price for one million gallons each of gasoline and diesel fuel through November
2009.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Interest rate risk</I>: In order to mitigate its exposure to changes in interest rates, Grayling
executed an interest rate collar as an economic hedge of the variable interest rate charged on its
outstanding revenue bonds. At March&nbsp;31, 2009, the notional amount of this contract was $17
million.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In February&nbsp;2009, CMS Energy was dismissed from the J.P. Morgan Trust Company action; the Learjet
Inc. et al. v Oneok, Inc., et al. class action; and the Hartland Regional Medical Center, et al.
class action, but the other CMS Energy defendants remain in these cases.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Also, in February&nbsp;2009, all CMS Energy defendants have been dismissed from the Breckenridge Brewery
of Colorado, LLC and the BBD Acquisition Co. v. Oneok, Inc. et al. class action and the Arandell
Corporation, et al. v. XCEL Energy Inc., class action. Appeals of these dismissals are expected.
Plaintiffs in the Arandell case, which was originally filed in Wisconsin and then dismissed by the
federal court, have now filed a similar lawsuit in Michigan. It remains CMS Energy&#146;s view that
this claim is without merit. CMS Energy cannot predict the financial impact or outcome of this
matter.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In the
Samuel D. Leggett, et al v. Duke Energy Corporation, et al
class action complaint, the Tennessee Supreme Court has granted the
 defendants&#146; application for leave to appeal. The CMS Energy
defendants joined with other defendants in that application.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Newpage
Wisconsin System Inc. v. CMS ERM,
CMS Energy, and Cantera complaint was filed on March&nbsp;25,
2009 in circuit court in Wood County, Wisconsin and served on the CMS
Energy defendants on April&nbsp;14, 2009.
The complaint  purports to be on behalf of all industrial and commercial direct purchasers of natural gas for
their own use and consumption in Wisconsin from January&nbsp;1, 2000 through
October&nbsp;31, 2002. It alleges claims under the Wisconsin antitrust statutes and includes claims for
full consideration damages, treble damages, costs, interest, and
attorneys&#146; fees. The CMS Energy defendants,

to restrain trade through false
reporting of natural gas trading information to reporting firms. CMS
Energy defendants expect to remove the case to federal court. CMS

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>MARATHON INDEMNITY CLAIM REGARDING F.T. BARR CLAIM</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">On December&nbsp;3, 2001, F. T. Barr, an individual with an overriding royalty interest in production
from the Alba field, filed a lawsuit in Harris County District Court in Texas against CMS Energy,
CMS Oil and Gas, and other defendants alleging that his overriding royalty payments related to Alba
field production were improperly calculated. CMS Oil and Gas believes that Barr was properly paid
on gas sales and that he was not entitled to the additional overriding royalty payment sought. All
parties signed a confidential settlement agreement on April&nbsp;26, 2004. The settlement resolved
claims between Barr and the defendants, and the involved CMS Energy entities reserved all defenses
to any indemnity claim relating to the settlement. Issues exist between Marathon and certain
current or former CMS Energy entities as to the existence and scope of any indemnity obligations to
Marathon in connection with the matter. In April&nbsp;2008, Marathon indicated its intent to pursue the
indemnity claim, and present and former CMS Energy entities and Marathon entered into a one year
agreement tolling the statute of limitations on any claim by Marathon under the indemnity. In April
2009, certain Marathon entities filed a claim in the United States District Court for the Southern
District of Texas against CMS Enterprises for indemnification. CMS Energy entities dispute
Marathon&#146;s claim, and will vigorously oppose it. CMS Energy entities also will assert that Marathon
has suffered minimal, if any, damages. CMS Energy cannot predict the outcome of this matter. If
Marathon&#146;s claim were sustained, it would have a material effect on CMS Energy&#146;s future earnings
and cash flow.
