<p style="color:windowtext;line-height:normal;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.25in;"><font size="3" face="Arial" style="font-size:12.0pt;">Effective December&nbsp;5, 2011, HEI and a syndicate of eight financial institutions entered into an amendment to their revolving unsecured credit agreement. The amendment revised the pricing of HEI&#146;s $125&nbsp;million line of credit facility (with a letter of credit sub-facility) and extended the term of the facility to December&nbsp;5, 2016. Any draws on the facility bear interest at the &#147;Adjusted LIBO Rate,&#148; as defined in the agreement, plus 150 basis points. Annual fees on undrawn commitments are 25 basis points. The amended agreement contains provisions for revised pricing in the event of a long-term ratings change. For example, a ratings downgrade of HEI&#146;s long-term rating (e.g., from BBB/Baa2 to BBB-/Baa3 by Standard&nbsp;&amp; Poor&#146;s (S&amp;P) and Moody&#146;s Investors Service (Moody&#146;s), respectively) would result in a commitment fee increase of 5 basis points and an interest rate increase of 25 basis points on any drawn amounts. On the other hand, a ratings upgrade (e.g., from BBB/Baa2 to BBB+/Baa1 by S&amp;P or Moody&#146;s, respectively) would result in a commitment fee decrease of 2.5 basis points and an interest rate decrease of 25 basis points on any drawn amounts. All other terms and covenants of the original credit agreement dated May&nbsp;7, 2010 remain unchanged. (See HEI Exhibit&nbsp;10.2 and Note 11 of HEI&#146;s &#147;Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements&#148; in HEI&#146;s Quarterly Report on Form&nbsp;10-Q for the quarter ended March&nbsp;31, 2010 for the original credit agreement and a description of the original credit agreement, respectively.)</font></p>

The amendment revised the pricing of HECO&#146;s $175&nbsp;million line of credit facility (with a letter of credit sub-facility). The credit agreement as amended has an initial term which expires on December&nbsp;3, 2012, but the term of the facility will extend to December&nbsp;5, 2016 if the extension is approved by the Hawaii Public Utilities Commission. Any draws on the facility bear interest at the &#147;Adjusted LIBO Rate,&#148; as defined in the agreement, plus 150 basis points. Annual fees on undrawn commitments are 25 basis points. The amended agreement contains provisions for revised pricing in the event of a long-term ratings change.
