The Company represents and warrants to each Purchaser that, except as hereinafter deemed modified or substituted and replaced pursuant to this Exhibit A, each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5 of the Note Purchase Agreement is true and correct as of the Execution Date and as of the Closing Date. For purposes of the representation and warranty set forth above, (a) each reference to “Series2010-A Notes” set forth in Section 5 of the Note Purchase Agreement shall be deemed modified to refer to “Series2017-C Notes,” each reference to “this Agreement” set forth in Section 5 of the Note Purchase Agreement shall be deemed modified to refer to “the Note Purchase Agreement as supplemented by the Fourth Supplement” and each reference to “the Purchasers” set forth in Section 5 of the Note Purchase Agreement shall be deemed modified to refer to “the institutional investors named on Schedule A to the Fourth Supplement”, (b) each reference to “Schedule 5.4” in Sections 5.4(b), 5.4(c) and 5.4(d) of the Note Purchase Agreement shall be deemed modified to refer to “Schedule 5.4 to the Fourth Supplement” and (c) the corresponding sections of Section 5 of the Note Purchase Agreement are hereby substituted and replaced by the following:

Section 5.3Disclosure. The Company, through its lead agents, MUFG Securities Americas Inc. and JPMorgan Securities LLC, has delivered to each Purchaser a copy of a Private Placement Memorandum, dated October 2017 (the“Memorandum”), relating to the transactions contemplated by the Fourth Supplement. The Memorandum fairly describes, in all material respects, the general nature of the business and principal properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries. This Agreement, the Memorandum and the documents, certificates or other writings delivered to the Purchasers and the financial statements listed in Schedule 5.5 to the Fourth Supplement, delivered to the Purchasers by or on behalf of the Company (this Agreement, the Memorandum and such documents, certificates or other writings, the Fourth Supplement and such financial statements delivered to each Purchaser prior to October 13, 2017 being referred to, collectively, as the“Disclosure Documents”), taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made. The projections and pro forma financial information contained in the materials referenced above are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of the Company to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the holders of Notes that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount. Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Documents, since December 31, 2016, there has been no change in the financial condition, operations, business, properties or prospects of the Company or any Subsidiary except changes that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no fact known to the Company that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been set forth herein or in the Disclosure Documents.

EXHIBIT A

(to Fourth Supplement to Note Purchase Agreement)

Section 5.4Organization and Ownership of Shares of Subsidiaries. (a) Schedule 5.4 to the Fourth Supplement contains (except as noted therein) complete and correct lists (1) of the Company’s Subsidiaries, showing, as to each Subsidiary, the correct name thereof, the jurisdiction of its organization, and the percentage of shares of each class of its Capital Stock outstanding owned by the Company and each other Subsidiary and (2) of Company’s directors and senior officers.

Section 5.5Financial Statements; Material Liabilities. The Company has delivered to each Purchaser copies of the financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 5.5 to the Fourth Supplement. All of said financial statements (including in each case the related schedules and notes) fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates specified in such Schedule 5.5 and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods so specified and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved except as set forth in the notes thereto (subject, in the case of any interim financial statements, to normalyear-end adjustments). The Company and its Subsidiaries do not have any Material liabilities that are not disclosed on such financial statements or otherwise disclosed in the Disclosure Documents.

Section 5.12Compliance with ERISA.

(b) The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each of the Plans (other than Multi-employer Plans), determined as of the end of such Plan’s most recently ended plan year in such Plan’s most recent actuarial valuation report on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in such report, did not exceed the aggregate value of the assets of such Plan as reflected in such Plan’s most recent actuarial valuation report allocable to such benefit liabilities as reflected in such Plan’s most recent actuarial valuation report by more than $50,000,000 in the aggregate for all Plans. The term “benefit liabilities” has the meaning specified in Section 4001 of ERISA and the terms “current value” and “present value” have the meanings specified in Section 3 of ERISA.

Section 5.13Private Offering by the Company. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the Series2017-C Notes or any similar securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy any of the same from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any Person other than the Purchasers and not more than 65 other Institutional Investors of the type described in clause (c) of the definition thereof, each of which has been offered the Series2017-C Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the issuance or sale of the Series2017-C Notes to the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act or to the registration requirements of any securities or blue sky laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

Section 5.14Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. The Company will apply the proceeds of the sale of the Series2017-C Notes to the repayment of indebtedness and other general limited liability company purposes. No part of the proceeds from the sale of the Series2017-C Notes hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of buying or carrying any margin stock within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR 221), or for the purpose of buying or carrying or trading in any

E-A-2

securities under such circumstances as to involve the Company in a violation of Regulation X of said Board (12 CFR 224) or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of Regulation T of said Board (12 CFR 220). Margin stock does not constitute more than 25% of the value of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Company does not have any present intention that margin stock will constitute more than 25% of the value of such assets. As used in this Section, the terms “margin stock” and “purpose of buying or carrying” shall have the meanings assigned to them in said Regulation U.

Section 5.15Existing Debt; Future Liens.

(a) Except as described therein, Schedule 5.15 to the Fourth Supplement sets forth a complete and correct list of all outstanding Indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of November 8, 2017 (including a description of the obligors and obligees, principal amount outstanding and collateral therefor, if any, and Guarantee Obligations relating thereto, if any), since which date there has been no Material change in the amounts, interest rates, sinking funds, installment payments or maturities of the Indebtedness of the Company or its Subsidiaries. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default and no waiver of default is currently in effect, in the payment of any principal or interest on any Indebtedness of the Company or such Subsidiary and no event or condition exists with respect to any Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary that would permit (or that with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would permit) one or more Persons to cause such Indebtedness to become due and payable before its stated maturity or before its regularly scheduled dates of payment.

(b) Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.15 to the Fourth Supplement, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has agreed or consented to cause or permit in the future (upon the happening of a contingency or otherwise) any of its property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to be subject to a Lien not permitted by Section 10.4.

Section 5.17Status under Certain Statutes. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the ICC Termination Act of 1995, as amended. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is subject to regulation under federal or state law as a public utility except that (i) Peoples is subject to regulation as a public utility under Pennsylvania law and by the Pennsylvania Public Service Commission, (ii) Peoples KY LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company, and Delta, a Kentucky corporation, are subject to regulation by the Kentucky Public Service Commission and (iii) Peoples WV LLC, a West Virginia limited liability company, is subject to regulation by the Public Service Commission of West Virginia. The Company and its Subsidiaries have each complied and are in compliance with (a) all applicable state utility laws, regulations and orders and (b) any other federal or state laws, regulations and orders applicable to it as a public utility or gas utility, except in each case for instances of noncompliance that, individually and in the aggregate, have not had, and could not reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect.

E-A-3

Section 5.21Solvency. The Company is, and after giving effect to the incurrence of all Indebtedness and obligations being incurred in connection herewith will be and will continue to be, Solvent.
