Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
As previously disclosed, on February 23, 2022, the Rhode Island Division of Public Utilities and Carriers (the "Division"), in response to an application filed by PPL Corporation (the "Company"), PPL Rhode Island Holdings, LLC, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("PPL Rhode Island"), The Narragansett Electric Company ("Narragansett") and National Grid USA, issued an order authorizing the disposition of jurisdictional facilities that will result in PPL Rhode Island acquiring 100% of the outstanding shares of common stock of Narragansett (the "Transaction"), as contemplated by that certain Share Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 17, 2021 (as supplemented and amended), by and among PPL Energy Holdings, LLC, PPL Rhode Island (as successor by assignment from PPL Energy Holdings, LLC), National Grid USA, and, solely with respect to certain provisions thereof, the Company.
The Attorney General of Rhode Island appealed the Division’s order and sought a stay of the order pending a decision on the appeal. On April 1, 2022, the Rhode Island Superior Court (the "Superior Court") stayed the Division’s order until the Superior Court decides the appeal. Oral arguments on the appeal are scheduled for April 12, 2022 in the Superior Court. The Company remains confident that the Division correctly authorized the Transaction.
