./E In many respects, 2013 was a transformational year at SMUD.

From reaping the benefits of the SmartSacramentoý initiative to laying the groundwork for time-differentiated electric rates, we set a strong foundation that will serve our customers well in the years ahead.

SMUD's finances are in good order. It helped that for the first time in several years, the economic news was positive. A long-awaited upturn meant the Sacramento region began recovering its financial footing. SMUD's increase in net income in 2013 was $69.7 million, $30 million higher than planned. Standard &

Poor's raised SMUD's credit rating to AA-, the third upgrade we've received from one of the major credit agencies in the last three years.

SMUD's two most visible achievements in 2013 were a move to the new East Campus - Operations Center and the successful completion of the $308 million lost visible achievements SmartSacramento project. These developments are closely connected and will help SMUD provide a move to the new East customers with more energy options and efficient perations Center and the service.

continued Letter from the General Manager/CEO results of SMUD's smart-pricing pilot. More than 8,000 customers participated in the largest study of its kind in the country.

In August, the SMUD Board of Directors voted unanimously to phase out tiered rates over the next four years and to begin preparing for time-of-use rates.

The completion of residential rate restructuring will have long-lasting benefits for SMUD and the community. By aligning our costs with the true value of serving customers, we fundamentally changed the way we price our product. Extensive outreach efforts preceded the rate restructuring, and our customers were supportive of the changes.

SMUD continued in 2013 to increase its supply of renewable resources, keeping us on track to meet the state mandate of 33 percent by 2020. As part of our effort to integrate renewable resources such as wind and solar into the optimal operation of SMUD's distribution system, the SMUD Board approved a $35 million contract to perform geotechnical and engineering testing on a possible pumped-storage reservoir at Iowa Hill in our Upper American River Project. SMUD is investigating other storage options as well.

SMUD received the highest J.D. Power and Associates Last but certainly not least, I'm pleased customer satisfaction scores of any California utility to note that SMUD received the highest for the 12th straight year.

~0 The nmes adu Year in review I SMUD experienced a banner year on several fronts in 2013.

More than 95 percent of the SmartSacramento work associated with the $127.5 million federal smart grid grant was completed. One-third of SMUD's work force moved to the expansive East Campus -

Operations Center. SMUD received a credit upgrade from one of the major rating agencies and remained the top-ranked California utility in terms of customer satisfaction. And even with a record-setting heat wave in late June and July that generated a high demand for electricity, SMUD exceeded its reliability targets for 2013.

These developments, and others, ensure that SMUD is on solid financial and organizational footing heading into the future.

A look at some of the highlights:

Strong financial showing With the regional economy beginning to rebound from the recession, electric sales were up, and SMUD finished 2013 with a change in net position of $69.7 million, $30 million more than planned. SMUD's fixed charge debt ratio for 2013 was 1.8o, exceeding the target established by the Board of Directors. More good financial news came when Standard & Poor's raised SMUD's credit rating to AA-.

SmartSacramento Three and a half years after receiving a $127.5 million smart grid infrastructure grant, the largest awarded to any California utility, SMUD met the U.S. Department of Energy's deadline for installing nearly all of the authorized smart-grid equipment.

East Campus - Operations Center More than 650 SMUD employees moved into the East Campus - Operations Center in the late spring. Located on the corner of Kiefer Boulevard and Bradshaw Road, the East Campus replaced the outdated corporate yard on 59th Street.

Construction of the East Campus generated more than 300 local jobs.

Rate restructuring After conducting extensive community outreach, the SMUD Board of Directors voted in August to approve 2.5-percent rate increases in 2014 and 2015 and to begin phasing out residential billing tiers.

The rate increase was necessitated by renewable energy costs and increased enrollment in SMUD's discounted rate Approximately one-third of SMUD's for low-income customers. Even with "

The residential rate restructuring is part of an effort to better align charges with the true cost of serving customers. Under the current rates, kilowatt-hour pricing for base energy use does not fully cover SMUD's costs, while the base-plus price covers more than the full cost.

As a result, SMUD will reduce the rt grid i price difference between base and base-plus energy use from 2014 to 2016.

Renewable power and proposed Iowa Hill project SMUD stayed on track to meet the state mandate requiring utilities to receive 33 percent of their power supply from renewable resources by 202o. The challenge in coming years will be to integrate intermittent generation such as wind and solar into an electric grid that continues providing customers with reliable, around-the-clock service.

To that end, the SMUD Board approved in 2013 a $35 million contract authorizing a geotechnical study to determine the feasibility of building the Iowa Hill pumped-storage facility in SMUD's Upper In addition to leading the sta American River Project. A grant from the U.S.

tion of a new reservoir above the Slab Creek Reservoir. During off-peak hours, when power is inexpensive - or when SMUD has surplus renewable generation - water would be pumped up to the new reservoir for storage. During peak hours, when electricity is most expensive, water would be released from the bottom of the upper reservoir to flow into a new powerhouse.

Approving the geotechnical work doesn't mean the SMUD Board will approve the Iowa Hill project. The Board will assess the study and determine whether to proceed or not.

The succession of high temperatures caused transformers to overheat and caused a number of heat-related outages, but overall, system upgrades and the dedicated work of SMUD's field crews kept customer disruption to a minimum.

Customer satisfaction For the 12th straight year, SMUD had the highest residential customer satisfaction score of any California utility in the J.D. Power and Associates study. SMUD scored 692 out of a possible 1,ooo points, well above the industry average of 639. In addition to leading the state, SMUD had the second-highest score of any large electric utility in the United States.

Not anymore. Change is occurring, relatively speaking, in the blink of an eye.

The $308 million invested in SMUD's SmartSacramento initiative is a major step forward in the transformation toward a smarter, more efficient electric grid. Just three and a half years after receiving a $127.5 million smart grid infrastructure SSmut grant, the largest federal grant awarded to any California utility, SMUD met the U.S. Department of Energy's deadline for installing nearly all of the authorized smart-grid equipment.

Those benefits include the ability to identify outages and restore power to customers more quickly from the smart grid's nerve center - the modernized Control Room at SMUD's new East Campus - Operations Center.

In applying for the federal grant, SMUD emphasized a collaborative, end-to-end approach. SMUD formed partner-ships with some of the region's biggest organizations -

"This project exemplifies everything we're trying to achieve," said Patricia Hoffman, assistant secretary at the U.S. Department of Energy. "What SMUD has done is pull the community together. This is the business model for the future."

Hoffman's remarks were made during a 2013 event marking the completion of the SmartSacramento initiative and the opening of SMUD's East Campus - Operations Center.

Rep. Doris Matsui also applauded SMUD for laying the groundwork for a smarter grid.

"This is one of the largest infrastructure commitments in our region," Matsui said. "It will completely change the way we think, use and interact with our energy grid.

  • af&V step forward in the transformation toward a smarter, more efficient electric grid.

As SMUD continues building a smarter grid for its customers, the lessons learned in the SmartSacramento initiative will be used to design successful programs.

To put it another way, evaluating those lessons will help SMUD give customers the most bang for their buck.

One of the most valuable SmartSacramento projects was Smart Pricing Options. Results from the pilot study were so encouraging that the SMUD Board set up a rate structure that could transition residential customers to time-of-use rates beginning in 2018.

SMUD's smart pricing pilot -

which showed that customers are willing to reduce their peak energy use if hourly rates are designed to encourage off-peak use - received national attention.

"It was a very complex study, and no one has achieved the success, and the depth, and the quality of work that SMUD has done in this effort," said U.S.

Department of Energy Assistant Secretary Patricia Hoffman.

The idea behind the study was to encourage customers to reduce their energy use during the peak hours of summer usage, when the cost of the electricity SMUD buys is

[

at its highest. The study tested three different S

pricing plans with approximately 11,000 customers divided among seven test groups.

I.a For example, customers participating in "critical peak pricing" were charged 75 cents per kilowatt-hour from 4 to 7 p.m. on 12 separate days during the summer months.

Customers received notifications a day in advance that the higher price would kick in. The off-peak price was 8.5 cents per kilowatt-hour.

The results were unequivocal: Customers will reduce their peak energy use significantly-up to 26 percent under the critical peak pricing option. One of the biggest surprises of the study was that the vast majority of the customers who were automatically enrolled in the pilot program agreed to participate rather than exercise their right to opt out.

Buying extra power on the open market during the sizzling days of summer is not just financially costly. Summer peak is also harmful to the environment because SMUD and other utilities have to fire up less-efficient plants to meet the increased demand for peak electricity.

By encouraging customers to reduce their peak energy use through time-differentiated rates, SMUD can avoid having to buy extra power on the open market while also improving the region's air quality.

The results were unequivocal: Customers will reduce their peak energy use significantly -

up to 26 percent under the critical peak pricing option.

Ground was broken on SMUD's East Campus -

Operations Center in September 2011. A different sort of ground was broken when the innovative project was completed in 2013.

In addition to providing nearly one-third of SMUD's work force with a modern, expansive place to work, the East Campus offers a blueprint of what's possible in energy efficiency.

The one-time gravel mine provided SMUD a broad canvas to work with. The East Campus was built to be a net-zero-energy site, meaning it's capable of producing as much energy as it consumes on an annual basis.

In November, the U.S. Green Building Council announced that SMUD's new campus received LEED Platinum status. LEED stands for Leadership in Energy

& Environmental Design, and platinum represents the highest level of achievement in the council's rating system. The Green Building Council looks for efficient use of energy, water, recycled materials and other factors.

The most noticeable feature of the East Campus is the 1.1-megawatt photovoltaic system built above the employee parking lot. LED lighting throughout the facility will greatly reduce energy and maintenance costs. Many of the innova-tions occur out of sight, from a geothermal heat pump system to radiant cooling and heating inside concrete slabs.

The administration building, the site's six-story, 203,000-square-foot centerpiece, uses less than half the energy consumed in traditional office buildings.

One of SMUD's primary objectives in building the East Campus was to provide a model for other customers to follow. Large buildings consume large amounts of energy, and the measures SMUD took at the East Campus can be affordably replicated elsewhere.

In many respects, the move to the East Campus was long overdue. The 19-acre corporate yard on 59th Street opened in 1946, when SMUD had just 60,000 customers.

With SMUD now serving 610,000 customers, the 51-acre East Campus site provides much more space, and its location is favorable since the Highway 50 corridor will be one of the region's greatest areas of population growth. The operational efficiencies at the East Campus are expected to save SMUD about

$3 million a year.

Milking a prdgiu enrg sorc The typical dairy cow produces six to seven gallons of milk each day. She also generates 12o pounds of manure and urine every day.

Neither product nor byproduct goes to waste at the New Hope Van Warmerdam dairies in Gait. With SMUD's assistance, the dairies installed anaerobic digesters that convert cow manure into clean, renewable electricity.

SMUD received approximately $5.5 million from the U.S. Department of Energy and the California Energy With SMUD's assista Commission to help fund the that convert cow mar construction of the digesters at the local dairies.

At the New Hope dairy, the collected manure is pumped into a concrete and steel tank, where biogas (primarily methane) accumulates and is then transferred to an engine-generator that produces clean electricity.

New Hope also uses a scrape system rather than a flush system to collect the manure, greatly reducing the use of fresh water at the dairy. At the Van Warmerdam dairy, the waste decomposes in a covered lagoon rather than in an above-ground tank.

Together, the two dairy digesters are capable of producing 4.3 gigawatt-hours of electricity annually -

enough to power roughly 450 single-family homes.

There are now four dairy digesters operating in SMUD's service territory, representing about 31 percent of California's total. The benefits are numerous. Dairy digesters keep climate-changing greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere while creating a revenue source for the farmers and supplying renewable energy to SMUD.

The digesters also reduce odors and flies compared to conventional open lagoon storage. The effluent is used as liquid fertilizer for crops.

When most people think of renewable power, they generally think of wind and solar. But biomass accounts for roughly 50 percent of SMUD's renewable portfolio.

SMUD is leading the way to have more small-scale biomass projects built. The Galt dairies are producing what's known in the business as "base load" renewable energy - power that's not contingent on the sun shining or the wind blowing.

nce, the dairies installed anaerobic digesters aure into clean, renewable electricity.

Sacramento's heavy traffic, urban driving conditions and poor air quality make California's capital region an optimal environment for plug-in electric vehicles, or PEVs.

SMUD has supported electric transportation for more than 20 years as part of its commitment to improve the region's air quality.

Over the past year, SMUD took several significant steps forward on the PEV front. SMUD launched an EV Innovators pilot rate program in which electric-vehicle owners could choose between two pricing plans: a whole house plan and a dedicated meter plan. The pilot program filled up quickly, with more than 200 customers registering.

The whole house plan was designed to integrate the customer's home and vehicle electricity use into one pricing plan. Under this plan, customers are rewarded for charging their electric vehicle during off-peak times such as late night. The dedicated meter plan requires a sub-meter and rewards customers for off-peak charging. Both plans offer the lowest EV charging rates charged by any California utility.

The pilot programs run through 2014, at which point SMUD will evaluate its PEV program and further develop low-cost pricing plans that encourage off-peak charging.

The pricing plans remained available after registration for the pilot program closed, and there are currently about 400 SMUD customers taking advantage of PEV pricing plans.

0 SMUD supports electric transportation in a variety of ways, including the installation of public charging stations, increasing the number of electric vehicles in its transporta-tion fleet, and giving truck drivers the option to plug in while they idle their rigs.

In addition, SMUD expanded parking places at the 49er Travel Plaza Electrified Truck Stop from 16 electrified stalls to 30. Plugging in the big rigs helps reduce carbon emissions and air pollution.

Most recently, SMUD opened a fast-charging station next to its headquarters building on S Street. The DC Fast Charger allows most electric vehicles to get fully charged Leading theWay SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013

in less than 30 minutes. Funding for the station came from the sale of SMUD's carbon credits in California's cap-and-trade market. Three more fast-charging stations will be installed through this pilot program.

Greenhouse gas emissions from an electric car are typically 70 percent lower than those released from gasoline combustion engines. As SMUD's electricity mix gets cleaner and cleaner with more renewable resources added in, the difference becomes even more pronounced.

Plus, electricity is a cheaper transportation fuel than gasoline. The electric-to-gasoline comparison is about

$2 per gallon at the fast-charging station.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report BAKER TILLY INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT To the Board of Directors of Sacramento Municipal Utility District, Sacramento, California Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Sacramento Municipal Utility District and its blended component units, which comprise the Consolidated Statements of Net Position as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position, and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the years then ended and the related notes to the financial statements.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors' Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors' judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control over financial reporting relevant to the Sacramento Municipal Utility District's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Sacramento Municipal Utility District's internal control.

Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Sacramento Municipal Utility District and its blended component units at December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the changes in their financial position and their cash flows for the years then ended, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT continued Emphasis of Matter As discussed in Note 3, Sacramento Municipal Utility District and its blended component units adopted the provisions of GASB Statement No. 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities, effective January 1, 2013.

The prior year has been restated for this change. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Other Matter Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management's Discussion and Analysis and Schedule of Funding Progress information as listed in the table of contents be presented to supplement the financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the consolidated financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the consolidated financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management's responses to our inquiries, the consolidated financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the consolidated financial statements.

We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we will also issue a report on our consideration of Sacramento Municipal Utility District's internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, grant agreements, and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance.

That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering Sacramento Municipal Utility District's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (unaudited)

This management discussion and analysis provides a summary of the financial performance of the Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD) and its component units for the years ending December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Please read this discussion in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes, which begin on page 34.

BACKGROUND Under provisions of California's Municipal Utility District Act, the citizens of Sacramento voted in 1923 to form their own electric utility - SMUD. The community-owned utility began operations on December 31, 1946.

Governed by an elected board of directors (Board), SMUD has the rights and powers to fix rates and charges for commodities and services it furnishes, incur indebtedness, and issue bonds or other obligations. SMUD is responsible for the acquisition, generation, transmission and distribution of electric power to its service area -

most of Sacramento County and small, adjoining portions of Placer and Yolo counties.

Setting Rates The Board has independent authority to set SMUD's rates and charges. Changes in rates require a public hearing and formal action by the Board.

In August 2013, the Board approved the following average system rate increases:

  • 2.5 percent, effective January 1, 2014
  • 2.5 percent, effective January 1, 2015 In the years 2014 through 2017, the two-tiered rate structure shall converge by modifying the Base Usage kWh allowance to reduce the price spread between the two tiers. By 2017, the increase in Base Usage allowance will cover all usage and therefore a single price per kWh will apply to residential customers.

In June 2009, the Board approved an average system rate increase of 2.25 percent starting January 2011.

In August 2011, the Board approved a revenue-neutral rate restructuring that would

" encourage energy efficiency,

  • promote the development of renewable energy resources, and
  • equitably allocate costs across and within customer classes Effective January 2012, various components of the rates were adjusted to achieve the Board's objectives.

The impact of the changes covers the years 2012 through 2017.

In April 2013 and 2012, $6.6 million and $6.4 million, respectively, were transferred from the Hydro Rate Stabilization Fund (HRSF) to revenue as a resuirof lower precipitation.

In December 2013 and 2012, $1.8 million and $0.6 million, respectively, were transferred to the Rate Stabilization Fund (RSF) due to increased energy deliveries by the Western Area Power Administration (Western).

Financial Reporting SMUD maintains its accounting records in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for proprietary funds as prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). SMUD's accounting records generally follow the Uniform System of Accounts for Public Utilities and Licensees prescribed by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, except as it relates to accounting for contributions of utility property in aid of construction.

SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013 1 Leading theWay

Sacramento Municipal Utility District 1 2013 Annual Report MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (unaudited)

In accordance with GASB Statement No. 63, "Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position," the Statements of Net Position present SMUD's assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, deferred inflows of resources, and net position for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

GASB Concept Statement No. 4, "Elements of Financial Statements." defines deferred outflows of resources as the consumption of net assets in one period that are applicable to future periods. Deferred inflows of resources are defined as the acquisition of net assets that are applicable to future reporting periods. The Statements of Net Position report net position as the difference between (a) assets and deferred outflows of resources and (b) liabilities and deferred inflows of resources. The components of net position are classified as investments in capital assets, net of related debt, restricted, and unrestricted. Unrestricted indicates the funds are available for operations. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were $149.1 million and $222.8 million, respectively, of deferred outflows of resources for hedging derivatives and unamortized bond losses, and $691.0 million and

$715.0 million, respectively, of deferred inflows of resources for hedging derivatives, regulatory credits, and financing obligations reported in the Statements of Net Position.

In accordance with GASB No. 62, "Regulated Operations." the Board has taken regulatory actions for ratemaking that result in the deferral of expense or revenue recognition.

As of December 31, 2013, SMUD had total regulatory costs for future recovery of $192.2 million, a net decrease of $35.1 million from 2012. The decrease is due primarily to a decrease in the valuation of derivative financial instruments of $27.7 million, deferred TANC operations costs of $8.3 million, and an adjustment of the U.S.

Bureau of Reclamation costs of $6.2 million, offset by a $7.7 million increase in Senate Bill 1 deferred costs for investments in solar.

As of December 31, 2013, SMUD also had Regulatory Credits of $403.2 million, a net increase of $3.6 million from 2012. The increase is primarily due to the $11.5 million deferral of precipitation hedges, $1.8 million transfer to the RSF due to increased energy deliveries by Western offset by a $6.6 million transfer from the HRSF due to lower precipitation, $1.1 million reduction in deferred revenues for AB-32 programs, and a $3.0 million reduction in Senate Bill I (SB-1) deferred revenue for investments in solar.

The regulatory costs and regulatory credits will be recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position in future periods as determined by the Board for ratemaking purposes.

Contents of this report This annual financial report reflects SMUD activities that are funded primarily through the sale of energy, transmission, and distribution services to its customer-owners and is divided into the following sections.

ASSETS & DEFERRED OUTFLOWS OF RESOURCES Utility Plant - net 2013 compared to 2012 SMUD has invested approximately $3,323.0 million in electric utility plant assets and construction work in progress (CWIP) after accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2013. Electric Utility Plant -

net makes up about 62 percent of SMUD's Total Assets, which is the same percentage as the previous year. In 2013, SMUD capitalized approximately $171.0 million of additions to electric utility plant in SMUD's Consolidated Statements of Net Position. The additions were primarily due to distribution line work, hardware and software upgrades, the East Campus Operations Center, and distribution and transmission substation upgrades and modifications.

2012 compared to 2011 SMUD has invested approximately $3,339.7 million in electric utility plant assets and construction work in progress (CWIP) after accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2012. Electric Utility Plant -

net makes up about 62 percent of SMUD's Total Assets, approximately 4 percent less than the previous year. In 2012, SMUD capitalized approximately $270.0 million of additions to electric utility plant in SMUD's Consolidated Statements of Net Position. The capital additions were primarily for the Solano Wind Phase 3 project, East Campus Operations Center and Smart Grid projects such as smart meters, distribution automation, and AMI software, as well as the purchase of line trucks, and the Microgrid project.

] Other Restricted and Designated Assets 2013 compared to 2012 SMUD's restricted and designated assets decreased by $58.7 million during 2013.

The decrease was due to $28.7 million related to the component units' overhaul and operating funds, $14.5 million in the nuclear decommissioning fund, $11.0 million in the revenue bond reserves due to the refunding of Series R03 and S03, and $4.8 million in the RSF (including the HRSF) as a result of lower precipitation and higher energy deliveries from Western. These decreases were offset by a $0.3 million increase in the escrow fund.

2012 compared to 2011 SMUD's restricted and designated assets decreased by $7.2 million during 2012.

There was a decrease of $5.7 million in the RSF (including the HRSF) as a result of lower precipitation and higher energy deliveries from Western. The year also ended with a higher current portion of restricted and designated assets. This was offset by a $7.6 million increase in Revenue bond, debt service, and construction reserves due to a $9.0 million transfer from unrestricted funds for payment of debt service and $8.7 million from operations, offset by a $10.1 million decrease in reserve funds due to the bond refunding of Series Q02 and R03 with the issuance of 2012 Series Y Electric Revenue Refunding Bonds.

Current Assets 2013 compared to 2012 Current assets increased by $141.1 million in 2013 primarily due to increases in the following: $249.5 million in unrestricted investments, $32.5 million in the current portion of restricted and designated cash and $10.6 million in the current portion of prepayments. This is partially offset by decreases in the following: $71.5 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, $71.4 million in net receivables,

$5.0 million in the current portion of regulatory costs, and $5.0 million in credit support collateral deposits.

2012 compared to 2011 Due to the implementation of GASB No. 65 in 2013, some items were reclassified for comparative purposes. Current assets increased by $216.4 million in 2012 mainly due to increases in the following: $106.5 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, $56.3 million in net receivables, $55.8 million in unrestricted investments, $11.7 million in inventories and prepayments, and $9.6 million in the current portion of restricted and designated cash, cash equivalents and investments. This is partially offset by a decrease of $20.0 million in credit support collateral deposits and $3.5 million in regulatory costs to be recovered within one year.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (unaudited)

Noncurrent Assets 2013 compared to 2012 Total noncurrent assets decreased by $69.0 million mainly due to the following decreases: $30.2 million in regulatory costs for future recovery, $25.0 million in gas, power and other prepaid costs, $10.5 million in hedging derivative instruments, and $3.3 million in energy efficiency loans - net.

2012 compared to 2011 Total noncurrent assets increased by $108.4 million mainly due to the following increases: $142.8 million of prepaid power and capacity, $42.9 million in prepayments and other, and $7.5 million in regulatory costs for future recovery. These increases were partially offset by the following decreases:

$29.2 million in credit support and collateral deposits, $26.9 million of unamortized-debt issuance costs reclassified to a regulatory asset due to the implementation of GASB 65, $21.6 million in prepaid gas, and

$9.1 million in energy efficiency loans - net.

Deferred Outflows of Resources 2013 compared to 2012 Total deferred outflows of resources decreased $73.6 million due to $61.9 million in the fair value of hedging derivative instruments and $11.7 million in unamortized bond losses.

2012 compared to 2011 There was a $7.0 million increase due to reclassified unamortized bond losses of

$58.5 million due to the implementation of GASB No. 65, offset by a $51.5 million decrease in the fair value of hedging derivatives.

LIABILITIES Long-term debt - net 2013 compared to 2012 In May 2013, SMUD issued $118.6 million of 2013 Series B Electric Revenue Refunding Bonds. The proceeds from the issuance along with $6.7 million of available funds were used to refund $141.5 million of the outstanding 2003 Series R and 2004 Series T revenue bonds through a legal defeasance. In August 2013, SMUD issued $57.8 million of 2013 Series C Electric Revenue Refunding Bonds.

The proceeds from the issuance along with $4.3 million of available funds were used to refund $65.9 million of the outstanding 2003 Series S bonds through a legal defeasance.

2012 compared to 2011 Unamortized bond losses were reclassified to Deferred Outflows of Resources in the Statement of Net Position due to the implementation of GASB No. 65. In May 2012, SMUD issued

$196.9 million of 2012 Series Y Electric Revenue Refunding Bonds. The proceeds from the issuance along with $10.0 million of available funds were used to refund $219.9 million of the outstanding 2002, 2003, and 2004 revenue bonds through a legal defeasance.

The decrease was due to $14.0 million in accrued decommissioning costs, $14.9 million in investment derivative instruments, $8.3 million due to affiliated entity, $6.2 million due to U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, and $7.8 million in self-insurance. These decreases were offset by a $3.2 million increase in hedging derivative instruments.

2012 compared to 2011 Noncurrent liabilities decreased by $443.6 million during 2012. The decrease was mainly due to reclassification of regulatory credits and deferred credits to Deferred Inflows of Resources due to the implementation of GASB No. 65.

Deferred Inflows of Resources 2013 tompared to 2012 Total deferred inflows of resources decreased $24.0 million due to a decrease of

$18.6 million in financing obligations and $9.0 million in accumulated increase in fair value of hedging derivatives.

These decreases were offset by a $3.6 million increase in regulatory credits.

I Leading theWay I SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (unaudited) 2012 compared to 2011 Due to the implementation of GASB No. 65 in 2013, some items were reclassified to Deferred Inflows of Resources in the Statement of Net Position for comparative purposes, including financing obligations, accumulated increase in fair value of hedging derivatives, and regulatory credits. These reclassifications account for the increase from 2012 compared to 2011.

CHANGES IN NET POSITION Operating Revenues 2013 compared to 2012 Operating revenues were $1,428.4 million in 2013, an increase of $46.1 million from 2012. Sales to retail customers were $1,252.4 million in 2013, an increase of $6.9 million, which was about 1 percent higher than 2012. The number of customers increased from 604,053 in 2012 to 610,185 at the end of 2013, at an average revenue per kilowatt hour that remained flat.

Additionally, SMUD spent more than it collected in SB-1 revenues and has recorded a regulatory asset of $7.7 million.

Wholesale revenues are composed of both surplus gas and energy sales. In 2013, surplus gas sales were $52.8 million as compared to $48.7 million in 2012. Surplus gas sales were 8 percent higher and the average sales price was higher than the previous year. Surplus energy sales in 2013 were $18.3 million higher than in 2012 as a result of higher prices offset by lower volumes.

2012 compared to 2011 Operating revenues were $1,382.3 million in 2012, an increase of $22.3 million from 2011. Sales to retail customers were $1,245.5 million in 2012, an increase of $8.0 million, which was about 1 percent higher than 2011.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District 1 2013 Annual Report MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (unaudited)

Wholesale revenues are composed of both surplus gas and energy sales. In 2012, surplus gas sales were $48.7 million as compared to $88.2 million in 2011. The amount of surplus gas sold was 45 percent lower and was sold at lower average prices than previous year. Surplus energy sales in 2012 were $10.3 million lower than in 2011 due to lower volumes and lower prices.

The following charts show the megawatt hour (MWh) sales, and sales revenue in 2013, 2012, and 2011, by surplus energy sales (Surplus), commercial and industrial (C&I) and residential (Res) customers.

Purchased power expense was $31.7 million higher in 2013, mainly due to higher average prices offset by lower volume as compared to 2012. Approximately 9 percent less energy was purchased in 2013 at prices that averaged 24 percent higher than in 2012.

In 2013, net fuel costs for generation, a component of production costs, were approximately $257.2 million (inclusive of ineffective hedges reported as investment expense), or $12.6 million lower than 2012. Fuel usage increased 10 percent primarily due to higher production at the component unit generation plants. Average net fuel prices were lower by 14 percent in 2013 as compared to 2012. In both 2013 and 2012, respectively, power supply costs made up approximately 54 percent of total operating expenses.

Depreciation expense increased by $15.3 million due to higher depreciation related to software and hardware, general structures and improvements, Solano Wind plant, and distribution assets. The $4.4 million decrease in regulatory amounts collected in rates is due to the final year of amortization of North City Substation remediation obligations offset by higher decommissioning costs.

Administrative, general, and customer expenses were $14.6 million higher in 2013 than in 2012, mainly due to higher expense in various customer programs.

In 2012, power supply costs made up approximately 54 percent of total operating expenses as compared to 56 percent for 2011.

Depreciation expense decreased by $4.5 million due to fully depreciated meters and a reduction in the component units' plant in service due to the Fru-Con settlement (see Note 2).

Administrative, general and customer expense, were $9.3 million higher in 2012 than in 2011,.mainly due to higher expense in various customer programs and reclassification of some items due to implementation of GASB 65.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION The Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD) was formed and operates under the State of California Municipal Utility District Act (Act). The Act gives SMUD the rights and powers to fix rates and charges for commodities or services it furnishes, and to incur indebtedness and issue bonds or other obligations.

As a community-owned utility, SMUD is not subject to regulation or oversight by the California Public Utilities Commission.

SMUTD is responsible for the acquisition, generation, transmission, and distribution of electric power to its service area, which includes most of Sacramento County and small adjoining portions of Placer and Yolo Counties. The Board of Directors (Board) determines SMUD's rates.

SMUD is exempt from payment of federal and state income taxes and, under most circumstances, real and personal property taxes. SMUD is not exempt from real and personal property taxes on assets it holds outside of California.

In addition, SMUD is responsible for the payment of a portion of the property taxes associated with its real property in California that lies outside of its service area.

NOTE 2.

SUMMARY

OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Method of Accounting. SMUD's accounting records are maintained in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for proprietary funds as prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). SMUD's accounting records generally follow the Uniform System of Accounts for Public Utilities and Licensees prescribed by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), except as it relates to the accounting for contributions of utility property in aid of construction. SMUD's Consolidated Financial Statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting.

Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of the related cash flows. Electric revenues and costs that are directly related to the acquisition, generation, transmission, and distribution of electricity are reported as operating revenues and expenses. All other revenues and expenses are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Financial Reporting Entity. These Consolidated Financial Statements include SMUD and its component units. Although the component units are legally separate from SMUD, they are blended into and reported as part of SMUD because of the extent of their operational and financial relationships with SMUD. All significant inter-component transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Component Units. The component units include the Central Valley Financing Authority (CVFA), the Sacramento Cogeneration Authority (SCA), the Sacramento Power Authority (SPA), the Sacramento Municipal Utility District Financing Authority (SFA), and the Northern California Gas Authority No. I (NCGA). The primary purpose of CVFA, SCA, SPA and SFA is to own and operate electric utility plants that supply power to SMUD. The primary purpose of NCGA is to prepay for natural gas and to sell the natural gas to SMUD. SMUD's Board comprises the Commissions that govern these entities (see Note 6).

SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013 1 Leading theWay

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Plant in Service. The cost of additions to Plant in Service and replacement property units is capitalized. Repair and maintenance costs are charged to expense when incurred. When SMUD retires portions of its Electric Utility Plant, retirements are recorded against Accumulated Depreciation and the retired portion of Electric Utility Plant is removed from Plant in Service. The costs of removal and the related salvage value, if any, are charged or credited as appropriate to Accumulated Depreciation. SMUD generally computes depreciation on Plant in Service on a straight-line, service-life basis. The consolidated average annual composite depreciation rates for 2013 and 2012 were 3.6 and 3.54 percent, respectively. Depreciation is calculated using the following estimated lives:

G eneration.............................

7 to 80 years Transmission and Distribution............

7 to 50 years G as Pipeline...........................

5 to 90 years G eneral...............................

5 to 50 years At December 31, 2013 and 2012, capital assets are generally defined by SMUD as tangible assets with an initial, individual cost of more than three thousand dollars and one thousand dollars, respectively, and an estimated useful life in excess of two years.

Investments in Joint Power Agency (JPA). SMUD's investment in the Transmission Agency of Northern California (TANC) is accounted for under the equity method ofaccounting and is reported as a component of Plant in Service.

SMUD's share of the TANC debt service costs and operations and maintenance expense, inclusive of depreciation, is included in Transmission and Distribution expense in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position.

SMUD's investment in Balancing Authority of Northern California (BANC) is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. SMUD's share of the BANC operations and maintenance expense is included in Transmission and Distribution expense in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position.

Investments in Gas Properties. SMUD has an approximate 20 percent non-operating ownership interest in the Rosa Unit gas properties in New Mexico of which, SMUD's portion of the extracted gas is transported for use in its component unit natural gas-fired power plants (see Note 6). SMUD uses the successful efforts method of accounting for its investment in gas producing properties. Costs to acquire mineral interests in gas properties, to drill and equip exploratory wells that find proved reserves, and to drill and equip development wells are capitalized as a component of Plant in Service on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. Costs to drill exploratory wells that do not find proved reserves, geological and geophysical costs, and costs of carrying and retaining unproved properties are expensed. SMUD has purchased proven reserves and has not participated in exploratory drilling. Capitalized costs of producing gas properties, after considering estimated residual salvage values, are depleted by the unit-of-production method based on the estimated future production of the proved developed producing wells. SMUD's investment in gas properties is reported as a component of Plant in Service.

Restricted and Designated Assets. Cash, cash equivalents, and investments, which are restricted under terms of certain agreements for payments to third parties or Board actions limiting the use of such funds, are included as restricted assets. When SMUD restricts funds for a specific purpose, and both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is SMUD's policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed.

I Leading theWay I SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Restricted Bond Funds. SMUD's Indenture Agreements (Indenture) and Bond Resolutions require the maintenance of minimum levels of reserves for debt service and certain construction costs intended by the related debt offerings.

Nuclear Decommissioning Trust Fund. SMUD made annual contributions to its Nuclear Decommissioning Trust Fund (Trust Fund) through 2008 to cover the cost of its primary decommissioning activities associated with the Rancho Seco facility. Primary decommissioning excludes activities associated with the spent fuel storage facility after 2008 and most non-radiological decommissioning tasks. SMUD determined early in 2008 that there were enough funds in the trust to complete the radiological decommissioning of the Rancho Seco nuclear plant site, and stopped contributing to the Trust Fund (see Note 13).

Interest earnings on the Trust Fund assets are recorded as Interest Income and are accumulated in the Trust Fund.

Annual Decommissioning Expense is made up of the annual interest earned on the Trust Fund and fuel storage costs that cannot be taken from the Trust Fund.

Accrued Decommissioning. SMUD accrues decommissioning costs related to Utility Plant when an obligation to decommission facilities is legally required. Adjustments are made to such liabilities based on estimates by SMUD staff in accordance with FASB ASC 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations (FASB ASC 410). For active plants, such costs are included in the Utility Plant's cost and included as a component of Operating Expense over the Utility Plant's life. Expenditures for decommissioning activities are recorded as reductions to Accrued Decommissioning liability. Changes in the Rancho Seco decommissioning liability estimates arising from inflation, annual accretion, and other changes to the cost assumptions are recorded to Accrued Decommissioning with a corresponding adjustment to the related regulatory deferral. The current portion of the Accrued Decommissioning liability represents SMUD's estimate of actual expenditures in the next year, as set forth in the annual budget.

SMUD has identified potential retirement obligations related to certain generation, distribution and transmission facilities. SMUD's non-perpetual leased land rights generally are renewed continuously because SMUD intends to utilize these facilities indefinitely. Since the timing and extent of any potential asset retirements are unknown, the fair value of any obligations associated with these facilities cannot be reasonably estimated. Accordingly, a liability has not been recorded.

At December 31, 2013 and 2012, SMjUD's Accrued Decommissioning balance in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position relating to Rancho Seco was $169.1 million and $170.0 million, respectively (see Note 13). The Accrued Decommissioning balance in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position relating to other electricity generation and gas pro'duction facilities totaled $9.4 million and $9.1 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include all debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of 90 days or less, all investments in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), and money market mutual funds. LAIF has an equity interest in the State of California (State) Pooled Money Investment Account (PMIA).

PMIA funds are on deposit with the State's Centralized Treasury System and are managed in compliance with the California Government Code according to a statement of investment policy which sets forth permitted investment vehicles, liquidity parameters, and maximum maturity of investments. SMUD's deposits with LAIF comprise cash representing demand deposits up to $50.0 million maximum, and cash equivalents representing amounts above

$50.0 million which may be withdrawn once per month after a thirty-day period. The debt instruments and money market mutual funds are reported at amortized cost which approximates fair value, and the LAIF is reported at the value of its pool shares.

SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013 1 Leading theWay

Sacramento Municipal Utility District 1 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Investments. SMUD's investments held for more than one year are reported at fair value. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in Other Income - net in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position. Premiums and discounts on zero coupon bonds are amortized using the effective interest method. Premiums and discounts on other securities are amortized using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method.

Electric Operating Revenues. Electric revenues are billed on the basis of monthly cycle bills and are recorded as revenue when the electricity is delivered. SMUD records an estimate for unbilled revenues earned from the dates its retail customers were last billed to the end of the month. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, unbilled revenues were

$73.6 million and $69.1 million, respectively.

Purchased Power Expenses. A portion of SMUD's power needs are provided through power purchase agreements.

Expenses from such agreements, along with associated transmission costs paid to other utilities, are charged to Purchased Power expense on the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position in the period the power is received. The costs, or credits, associated with energy swap agreements (gas and electricity) or other arrangements that affect the net cost of Purchased Power are recognized in the period in which the underlying power delivery occurs. Contract termination payments and adjustments to prior billings are included in Purchased Power expense once the payments or adjustments can be reasonably estimated.

Advanced Capacity Payments. Some long-term agreements to purchase energy or capacity from other providers call for up-front payment. Such costs are generally recorded as an asset and amortized over the length of the contract.

Credit and Market Risk. SMUD enters into forward purchase and sales commitments for physical delivery of gas and electricity with utilities and power marketers. SMUD is exposed to credit risk related to nonperformance by its wholesale counterparties under the terms of these contractual agreements. In order to limit the risk of counterparty default, SMUD has a wholesale counterparty risk policy which includes using the credit agency ratings of SMIUD's counterparties, credit enhancements for counterparties that do not meet an acceptable risk level, and the use of standardized agreements that allow for the netting of positive and negative exposures associated with a single counterparty. SMUD is also subject to similar requirements for many of its gas and electricity purchase agreements.

SMUD uses a combination of cash, securities and a letter of credit facility to satisfy its collateral requirements to counterparties. SMUD has a $50 million letter of credit facility to support collateral requirements under SMUD's various energy and natural gas purchase, sale and swap agreements, with $50 million available at December 31, 2013 and $40 million available at December 31, 2012. The letter of credit facility will expire on January 17, 2014, at which time SMUD may continue to use cash and securities to satisfy collateral requirements. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, SMUD held $0.2 million on deposit by counterparties. The amount is recorded as unrestricted cash with an associated current liability. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, SMUD had $0 and $4.9 million, respectively, cash collateral posted with counterparties.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. Accounts Receivable is recorded at the invoiced amount and does not bear interest, except for accounts related to energy efficiency loans. SMUD recognizes an estimate of uncollectible accounts for its receivables related to electric service, energy efficiency loans, and other non-electric billings, based upon its historical experience with collections and current energy market conditions. For large wholesale receivable balances, SMUD determines its bad debt reserves based on the specific credit issues for each account. SMUD records bad debts for its estimated uncollectible accounts related to electric service as a reduction to the related operating revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position. SMUD records bad debts for its estimated uncollectible accounts related to energy efficiency loans and other non-electric billings in Administrative, General and Customer expense in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position.

(219) 2,346 1,239 4,194 3,310 2,104 2,362 Regulatory Deferrals. The Board has the authority to establish the level of rates charged for all SMUD services.

As a regulated entity, SMUD's financial statements are prepared in accordance with GASB No. 62, Regulated Operations, which requires that the effects of the rate-making process be recorded in the financial statements.

Accordingly, certain expenses and credits, normally reflected in Change in Net Position as incurred, are recognized when included in rates and recovered from, or refunded to, customers. SMUD records various regulatory assets and credits to reflect rate-making actions of the Board (see Note 8).

Materials and Supplies. Materials and supplies are stated at average cost, which approximates the first-in, first-out method.

Compensated Absences. SMUD accrues vacation leave and compensatory time when employees earn the rights to the benefits. SMUD does not record sick leave as a liability until it is taken by the employee, since there are no cash payments for sick leave made when employees terminate or retire. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the total estimated liability for vacation and other compensated absences was $21.9 million and $22.0 million, respectively.

Public Good. Public Good expenses consist of non-capital expenditures for energy efficiency programs, low income subsidies, renewable energy resources and technologies, and research and development.

Gains/Losses on Bond Refundings. Gains and losses resulting from bond refundings are included as a component of Deferred Inflows of Resources or Deferred Outflows of Resources on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position and amortized as a component of Interest on Debt in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position over the shorter of the life of the refunded debt or the new debt using the effective interest method.

Gains/Losses on Bond Defeasances or Extinguishments. Gains and losses resulting from bond defeasances or extinguishments that were not financed with the issuance of new debt are included as a component of Interest on Debt in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position.

SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013 1 Leading theWay

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Allowance for Funds Used During Construction (AFUDC). SMUD capitalizes, as an additional cost of Construction Work In Progress (CWIP), AFUDC, which represents the cost of borrowed funds used for such purposes. The amount capitalized is determined by a formula prescribed by FERC. The AFUDC rate for 2013 and 2012 was 3.5 percent and 3.7 percent, of eligible CWIP, respectively.

Derivative Financial Instruments. SMUD records derivative financial instruments (interest rate swap and gas price swap agreements, certain wholesale sales agreements, certain electricity purchase agreements and option agreements) at fair value on its Consolidated Statements of Net Position. SMUD does not enter into agreements for speculative purposes. Fair market value is estimated by comparing contract prices to forward market prices quoted by third party market participants and/or provided in relevant industry publications. SMUD is exposed to risk of nonperformance if the counterparties default or if the swap agreements are terminated. SMUD reports derivative financial instruments with remaining maturities of one year or less and the portion of long-term contracts with scheduled transactions over the next twelve months as current on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position (see Note 9).

Interest Rate Swap Agreements. SMUD enters into interest rate swap agreements to modify the effective interest rates on outstanding debt (see Notes 9 and 10).

Gas and Electricity Price Swap and Option Agreements. SMUD uses forward contracts to hedge the impact of market volatility on gas commodity prices for its gas-fueled power plants and for energy prices on purchased power for SMUD's retail load (see Note 9).

Solano Wind Sale. SMUD entered into an agreement to sell the Solano Wind Phase 3 plant in December 2011 with a corresponding Power Purchase Agreement for all the output of the plant. In April 2012, under the terms of the Construction Management Agreement, SMUD, on behalf of the purchaser, completed construction of thd plant, with the revenue recognition from the transaction, which was accounted for as a financing agreement, to occur over the life of the contracts. Pursuant to the Facility Administration Agreement, SMUD will perform services at the facility under the direction and for the benefit of the purchaser. Pursuant to the ground and property lease, SMUD is leasing the site to the purchaser for a term of twenty years with an option to extend for five additional years.

The sale proceeds have been recorded as Deferred Inflows of Resources on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position and will be amortized as Purchased Power Expense on the Consolidated Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position over the life of the agreement. Sale proceeds in the amount of $63.1 million were received in 2013. The prepayment for purchased power over the life of the contract has been recorded as Prepaid Power and Capacity on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position and will be amortized as Purchased Power Expense on the Consolidated Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position over the life of the agreement (see Note 17 for language about the Power Purchase Agreement).

Precipitation Hedge Agreements. SMUD enters into non-exchange traded precipitation hedge agreements to hedge the cost of replacement power caused by low precipitation years (Precipitation Agreements). SMUD records the intrinsic value of the Precipitation Agreements on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. Settlement of the Precipitation Agreements is not performed until the end of the period covered (water year ended September 30).

The intrinsic value of a Precipitation Agreement is the difference between the expected results from a monthly allocation of the cumulative rainfall amounts, in an average rainfall year, and the actual rainfall during the same period.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District 1 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Insurance Programs. SMUD records liabilities for unpaid claims at their present value when they are probable in occurrence and the amount can be reasonably estimated. SMUD records a liability for unpaid claims associated with general, auto, workers' compensation, and short-term and long-term disability based upon estimates derived by SMUD's claims administrator or SMUD staff. The liability comprises the present value of the claims outstanding, and includes an amount for claim events incurred but not reported based upon SMUD's experience (see Note 16).

Assembly Bill 32. California Assembly Bill 32 (AB-32) is an effort by the State of California to set a 2020 greenhouse gas emissions reduction goal into law. The goal is to reach a statewide emission limit of 427 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent of greenhouse gases (GHG). Central to this initiative is the implementation of a cap and trade program, which covers major sources of GHG emissions in the State including power plants.

The cap and trade program includes an enforceable emissions cap that will decline over time. The State will distribute allowances, which are tradable permits, equal to the emissions allowed under the cap. Sources under the cap will need to surrender allowances and offsets equal to their emissions at the end of each compliance period.

SMUD is subject to AB-32. SMUD participated in the first program auction in 2012 and subsequent auctions in 2013. SMUD expects its free allocation of allowances from the Air Resources Board will cover its compliance costs associated with electricity delivered to its retail customers. SMUD expects to recover compliance costs associated with wholesale power sales costs through its wholesale power sales revenues. SMUD is monitoring legislation and proposed programs that would impact AB-32 (see Note 8).

Net Position. SMUD classifies its net position into three components as follows:

" Net investment in capital assets - This component of net position consists of capital assets, net of Accumulated Depreciation, reduced by the outstanding debt balances, net of unamortized debt expenses. Deferred inflows and outflows of resources that are attributable to the acquisition, construction or improvement of those assets or related debt are also included.

" Restricted -This component of net position consists of assets with constraints placed on their use, either externally or internally. Constraints include those imposed by debt indentures (excluding amounts considered in net capital, above), grants or laws and regulations of other governments, or by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation or by the Board. These restricted assets are reduced by liabilities and deferred inflows of resources related to those assets.

  • Unrestricted - This component of net position consists of net amount of the assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources that do not meet the definition of "Net investment in capital assets" or "Restricted."

Contributions in Aid of Construction (CIAC). SMUD records CIAC from customer contributions, primarily relating to expansions to SMUD's distribution facilities, as Other Income - Net in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position. Contributions of capital are valued at estimated market cost.

For rate-making purposes, the Board does not recognize such revenues when received; rather, CIAC is included in revenues as such costs are amortized over the estimated useful lives of the related distribution facilities.

SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013 1 Leading theWay

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Revenues and Expenses. SMUD distinguishes operating revenues and expenses from non-operating items.

Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with SMUD's principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of SMUD are charges to customers for sales and services. Operating expenses include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses.

Grants. SMUD receives grant proceeds from federal and state assisted programs for its advanced and renewable technologies, electric vehicle, and energy efficiency programs. SMUD also periodically receives grant proceeds from federal or state assistance programs as partial reimbursements for costs it has incurred as a result of storm damages. Additionally, SMUD received several large American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) grants in 2009. When applicable, these programs may be subject to financial and compliance audits pursuant to regulatory requirements. SMUD considers the possibility of any material disallowances to be remote. During 2013, SMUD recorded $5.0 million of grant proceeds and recognized $16.3 million as a component of Revenue - Grants, in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position, $6.4 million as a Regulatory Credit (Note 8), and a $17.7 million decrease in unearned revenue as a component of Customer Deposits and Other on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. During 2012, SMUD recorded $59.9 million of grant proceeds and recognized $34.6 million as Revenue - Grants, in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position, $20.6 million as a Regulatory Credit (see Note 8), and $4.7 million as unearned revenues as a component of Self Insurance, Unearned Revenue and Other on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position.

In 2010, SMUD issued taxable Build America Bonds. SMUD receives an interest subsidy from the federal government equal to 35 percent of the interest paid (see Note 10). SMUD received a reduced subsidy payment in November 2013 due to budget sequestration by the federal government. In 2013 and 2012, SMUD recognized

$9.5 million and $9.8 million, respectively, in revenues for its Build America Bonds, as a component of Other Income - Net, in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position.

Pollution Remediation. In December 2009, SMUD identified a pollution remediation obligation at its North City Substation. This substation was built on a former landfill, and the site requires remediation. As part of the 2010 Budget Resolution, the Board authorized SMUD to defer the expense for rate-making purposes, and SMUD recorded a pollution remediation liability of $12.0 million and a corresponding regulatory asset for the remediation project. SMUD expensed $6.0 million, the remaining balance of the regulatory asset costs in 2012.

Customer Sales and Excise Taxes. SMUD is required by various governmental authorities, including states and municipalities, to collect and remit taxes on certain customer sales. Such taxes are presented on a net basis and excluded from revenues and expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position.

Termination Benefits. Termination benefits are benefits provided to employees as an incentive to hasten the termination of services, as a result of a voluntary early termination, or as a consequence of involuntary early termination.

I Leading theWay SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of December 31, 2013 SMUD did not have separation packages or retention programs with employees.

At December 31, 2012 various positions had separation packages and talent retention programs which were outlined with employees. Benefits provided included up to 12 weeks of paid leave, plus pay in lieu of benefits for up to 12 weeks. As of December 31, 2012, one employee had a retention agreement, and seven employees had termination benefits, the total of $0.3 million, was recorded as a component of Customer Deposits and Other on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position.

Fru-Con Settlement. In August 2003, SMUD entered into a contract with Fru-Con Construction Corporation (Fru-Con) to construct the Cosumnes Power Plant (CPP). In February 2005, SMUD terminated its contract with Fru-Con on the basis of breach of contract by Fru-Con and took steps to complete the CPP project. SMUD filed suit against Fru-Con. In January 2006, SFA issued bonds, which were used to purchase the plant from SMUD.

The total project cost of $417.7 million was transferred to SFA from SMUD, of which $127.2 million was contributed by SMUD. Under the Asset Sales agreement between SMUD and SFA, any Fru-Con litigation proceeds were to be kept by SMUD. In October 2012, SMUD received a $70.7 million settlement of the Fru-Con case, of which $28.8 million was recorded in Interest Income in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position, and $7.5 million was recorded as Other Income - Net in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position, and the remainder of $34.4 million was recorded as a reduction in member contributions to SFA. SFA rccorded the $34.4 million as a rcduction in Member Contribution, and a reduction in Plant in Service. On the Consolidated Statements of Net Position, the $34.4 million was recorded as a reduction to Plant in Service.

Subsequent events. Subsequent events for SMUD have been evaluated through February 21, 2014, which is the date that the financial statements were available to be issued.

Reclassifications. Certain amounts in the 2012 Consolidated Financial Statements have been reclassified in order to conform to the 2013 presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In December 2009, GASB issued SGAS No. 57, "OPEB Measurements byAgent Employers andAgent Multiple - Employer Plans" (GASB No. 57). GASB No. 57 addresses issues related to the use of the alternative measurement method and the frequency and timing of measurements by employers that participate in agent multiple-employer OPEB plans. This statement amends previous GASB statements on OPEB plans, and will improve the consistency of reporting for OPEB plans. This statement was effective for SMUD for 2012. SMUD has assessed the financial statement impact of adopting this statement, and its impact is not material.

In June 2011, GASB issued SGAS No. 64, "Derivative Instruments: Application of Hedge Accounting Termination Provisions, An Amendment of GASB Statement No. 53" (GASB No. 64). GASB No. 64 provides clarification of whether an effective hedging relationship continues after the replacement of a swap counterparty or a swap counterparty's credit support provider. This statement was effective for SMUD for 2012. SMUD has assessed the financial statement impact of adopting this statement, and its impact is not material.

SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013 1 Leading theWay

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS In June 2011, GASB issued SGAS No. 63, "Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position" (GASB No. 63). GASB No. 63 provides a new statement of net position format to report all assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, deferred inflows of resources, and net position (which is the net residual amount of the other elements). GASB 63 provides guidance on reporting deferred inflows and outflows of resources. This statement will standardize the presentation of deferred inflows and outflows of resources and their effect on a government's net position. The statement requires that deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources be reported separately from assets and liabilities, and to reflect the residual measure in the statement of financial position as net position, rather than net assets. This statement was effective for SMUD for 2012. The impact of adopting the new statement was limited to name changes to accounts and financial statements.

In March 2012, GASB issued SGAS No. 66 "Technical Corrections -2012 -An Amendment of GASB Statements No. 10 and No. 62" (GASB No. 66). GASB No. 66 requires governments to base their decisions about fund type classification on the nature of the activity to be reported. This statement also modifies the specific guidance on accounting for (1) operating lease payments that vary from a straight-line basis, (2) the difference between the initial investment (purchase price) and the principal amount of a purchased loan or group of loans, and (3) servicing fees related to mortgage loans that are sold when the stated service fee rate differs significantly from a current (normal) servicing fee rate. This statement is effective for SMUD for 2013. SMUD has assessed the financial statement impact of adopting this statement, and its impact is not material.

In June 2012, GASB issued SGAS No. 68 "Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions -An Amendment of GASB Statement No. 27" (GASB No. 68). The primary objective of GASB No. 68 is to improve accounting and financial reporting by state and local governments for pensions. This statement establishes standards for measuring and recognizing liabilities, deferred outflows and deferred inflows of resources, and expenses. For defined benefit pensions, this statement identifies the methods and assumptions that should be used to project benefit payments, discount projected benefit payments to their actuarial present value, and attribute that present value to periods of employee service. Note disclosure and required supplementary information requirements about pensions also are addressed. This statement is effective for SMUD for 2015. SMUD is currently assessing the financial statement impact of adopting this statement.

In January 2013, GASB issued SGAS No. 69, "Government Combinations and Disposals of Government Operations" (GASB No. 69). GASB No. 69 establishes accounting and financial reporting standards related to government combinations and disposals of government operations. As used in this statement, the term government combinations includes a variety of transactions referred to as mergers, acquisitions, and transfers of operations.

This statement is effective for SMUD in 2014. SMUD is currently assessing the financial statement impact of adopting this statement, but does not believe that its impact will be material.

In April 2013, GASB issued SGAS No. 70, "Accounting and Financial Reporting for Nonexchange Financial Guarantees" (GASB No. 70). The objective of GASB No. 70 is to improve accounting and financial reporting by state and local governments that extend and receive nonexchange financial guarantees. GASB No. 70 requires a government that extends a nonexchange financial guarantee to recognize a liability when qualitative factors and historical data, if any, indicate that it is more likely than not that the government will be required to make a payment on the guarantee. This statement requires a government that has issued an obligation guaranteed in a nonexchange transaction to report the obligation until legally released as an obligor. This statement specifies the information required to be disclosed by governments that extend nonexchange financial guarantees. In addition, GASB No. 70 requires new information to be disclosed by governments that receive nonexchange financial guarantees. This statement is effective for SMUD in 2014. SMUD is currently assessing the financial statement impact of adopting this statement, but does not believe that its impact will be material.

I Leading theWay I SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS In November 2013, GASB issued SGAS No. 71, "Pension Transition for Contributions Made Subsequent to the Measurement Date, an amendment of GASB Statement No. 68" (GASB No. 71). GASB No. 71 addresses an issue regarding application of the transition provisions of GASB No. 68. The issue relates to amounts associated with contributions, if any, made by a state or local government employer or nonemployer contributing entity to a defined benefit pension plan after the measurement date of the government's beginning net pension liability. GASB No. 71 amends paragraph 137 of GASB No. 68 to require that, at transition, a government recognize a beginning deferred outflow of resources for its pension contributions, if any, made subsequent to the measurement date of the beginning net pension liability. This statement is effective for SMUD in 2015, to be applied simultaneously with the provisions of GASB No. 68. SMUD is currently assessing the financial statement impact of adopting this statement.

NOTE 3. ACCOUNTING CHANGE In November 2010, GASB issued SGAS No. 61, "The Financial Reporting Entity - Omnibus -An Amendment of GASB Statements No. 14 and No. 34" (GASB No. 61). GASB No. 61 modifies requirements for inclusion of component units and amends criteria for reporting of component units. This statement also clarifies the reporting of equity interests in legally separate organizations. This statement is effective for SMUD for 2013. SMUD has revised its footnotes to disclose the rationale for including each component unit in SMUD's financial statements.

SMUD has also added the Condensed Statements of Net Position, Statements of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position, and Statements of Cash Flows to Note 6. Component Units.

In March 2012, GASB issued SGAS No. 65, "Items Previously Reported asAssets and Liabilities" (GASB No. 65).

GASB No. 65 establishes accounting and financial reporting standards that reclassify certain items previously reported as assets and liabilities as deferred outflows of resources or deferred inflows of resources or as outflows of resources or inflows of resources. This statement also limits the use of the term deferred in financial statement presentations. This statement is effective for SMUD for 2013.

At December 31, 2012 SMUD had $23.3 million in unamortized debt issuance costs which included prepaid insurance costs. The statement requires debt issuance costs, except any portion related to prepaid insurance costs to be recognized as an expense in the period incurred. The prepaid bond insurance portion of debt issuance costs was reclassified to a prepaid asset. SMUD elected to follow accounting for regulated operations and recorded the debt issuance costs as a regulatory asset. The prepaid bond insurance and the regulatory asset will be amortized using the straight line method over the remaining life of the associated bonds and recorded in Administrative, General and Customer and Regulatory Amounts Collected in Rates, respectively, in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position. The implementation also impacted the Statement of Net Position, as certain assets and liabilities were reclassified as deferred outflows or deferred inflows. SMUD restated the December 31, 2012 Consolidated Statement of Net Position and Consolidated Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position for comparative purposes.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District 1 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 7. CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS, AND INVESTMENTS Cash Equivalents and Investments. SMUD's investment policy is governed by the California State and Municipal Codes and its Indenture, which allow SMUD's investments to include: obligations which are unconditionally guaranteed by the United States (U.S.) Government or its agencies or instrumentalities; direct and general obligations of the State or any local agency within the State; bankers' acceptances; commercial paper; certificates of deposit; repurchase agreements; corporate notes; and taxable government and tax-exempt money market portfolios. SMIUD's investment policy includes restrictions for investments relating to maximum amounts invested as a percentage of total portfolio and with a single issuer, maximum maturities, and minimum credit ratings.

Credit Risk. To mitigate the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment, SMUD limits investments to those rated, at a minimum, "A-I" or equivalent for commercial paper and "A" or equivalent for medium-term corporate notes by a nationally recognized rating agency.

Custodial Credit Risk. This is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution or counterparty to a transaction, SMUD's deposits may not be returned or SMUD will not be able to recover the value of its deposits, investments or collateral securities that are in the possession of another party. SMUD does not have a deposit policy for custodial credit risk.

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, $5.7 million and $8.3 million in deposits were uninsured, respectively.

The bank balance is also, per a depository pledge agreement between SMUD and SMUD's bank, collateralized at 124 percent and 829 percent of the collective funds on deposit (increased by the amount of accrued but uncredited interest, reduced by deposits covered by FDIC) at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, SMUD had money market deposit accounts and mutual funds of $101.3 million and $111.9 million which were uninsured, respectively. SMUD's investments and money market mutual funds are held in SMUD's name.

Concentration of Credit Risk. This is the risk of loss attributed to the magnitude of an entity's investment in a single issuer. SMUD places no limit on the amounts invested in any one issuer for repurchase agreements and federal agency securities. The following are the concentrations of risk greater than five percent in either year:

903,831 751,801 NOTE 8. REGULATORY DEFERRALS The Board has taken various regulatory actions that result in differences between the recognition of revenues and expenses for rate-making purposes and their treatment under generally accepted accounting principles for non-regulated entities. These actions result in regulatory assets and liabilities, which are summarized in the tables below. Changes to these balances, and their inclusion in rates, occur only at the direction of the Board.

Regulatory Assets (Costs)

Decommissioning. SMUD's regulatory asset relating to the unfunded portion of its decommissioning liability is being collected through interest earnings on the Trust Fund. Nuclear fuel storage costs and non-radiological decommissioning costs have been collected in rates since 2009.

TANC Operations Costs. SMUD's regulatory asset relating to deferred TANC costs comprises the difference between its cash payments made to TANC and its share of TANC's accrual-based costs of operations. This regulatory asset is being collected in rates over the life of TANC's assets during the period that cash payments to TANC exceed TANC's accrual-based costs.

U.S. Bureau of Reclamation. In December 2004, SMUD established a regulatory asset to defer recognizing the expense related to the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (Bureau). This regulatory asset will be collected in rates over the period SMUD is committed to making rate payments to the Bureau.

Derivative Financial Instruments. SMUD's regulatory costs and/or credits relating to Investment Derivative Instruments are intended to defer the net difference between the fair value of derivative instruments and their cost basis, if any. Investment Derivative Instruments are reflected in rates at contract cost and as such, the balance is charged or credited into rates as the related asset or liability is utilized (see Note 9).

I Leading theWay I SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Senate Bill 1. SMUD implemented a per kilowatt hour solar surcharge, effective January 1, 2008 in order to fund investments in solar required by Senate Bill 1 (SB-1). The difference between the surcharge revenues received and the funds spent on solar initiatives will be recognized or deferred into future years. In 2013, SMUD spent more than it collected in SB-1 revenues, and has recorded a regulatory asset.

Debt Issuance Costs. SMUD established a regulatory asset for costs incurred in connection with the issuance of debt obligations, principally underwriter fees and legal costs. The regulatory asset will be collected in rates over the life of the bonds. Debt issuance costs after December 31, 2013 will be expensed.

SMUD's total regulatory costs for future recovery are presented below:

179,755 209,945 Regulatory Credits CIAC. In 2013 and 2012 SMUD added CIAC totaling $10.6 million and $13.0 million, respectively, to Regulatory Credits in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position and recorded $10.0 million and $9.4 million of amortization, respectively, to Other Income - Net in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position. SMUD's regulatory credit relating to CIAC is intended to offset the revenue and expense associated with this accounting treatment. Thus, this regulatory credit is being amortized into rates over the depreciable lives of the related assets in order to offset the earnings effect of these non-exchange transactions.

Rate Stabilization. SMUD's regulatory credit relating to Rate Stabilization is intended to defer the need for future rate increases when costs exceed existing rates. At the direction of the Board, amounts may be either transferred into this fund (which reduces revenues), or amounts are transferred out of this fund (which increases revenues).

The Board authorizes Rate Stabilization Fund (RSF) transfers on an event driven basis. In 2013, $1.8 million was transferred from revenue to the RSF as a result of higher than budgeted energy deliveries from Western Area Power Administration (Western).

SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013 1 Leading theWay

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Hydro Rate Stabilization. The Hydro Rate Stabilization Fund (HRSF) was established through the Hydro Generation Adjustment (HGA) mechanism, which helps manage volatility in energy costs. The HGA mechanism applies a formula based on precipitation and wholesale electricity prices to calculate needed withdrawals from or deposits to the HRSF. The maximum balance of the HRSF is 5 percent of the budgeted retail revenue and the maximum annual transfer in or out of the HRSF is 4 percent of budgeted retail revenue. If the HRSF is depleted SMUD will apply a hydro rate surcharge to customers' bills up to 4 percent. When the HRSF is fully replenished, a wet year can trigger a hydro rebate or credit on the customers' bills. In 2013, $6.6 million was transferred from the HRSF to revenue as a result of below average precipitation. No additional rate adjustments were necessary.

Assembly Bill 32. In 2012, SMUD participated in the first carbon allowance auction under AB-32, the Global Warming Solutions Act (see Note 2). In 2012, the Board authorized the deferral of AB-32 auction proceeds to match the revenue recognition with the related expenses. The difference between the auction proceeds received and the funds spent on AB-32 programs will be deferred into future years. In 2013, SMUD spent less than it collected in AB-32 revenues, and has recorded a regulatory credit.

Grant Revenues. In 2009, SMUD was awarded several large grants under the ARRA, which provided large amounts of reimbursements for capital expenditures. In 2010, the Board authorized the deferral of grant income for capital expenditures as regulatory liabilities. Thus, this regulatory credit will be deferred to match the depreciable lives of the related capital assets in order to offset the earnings effect of these non-exchange transactions.

Precipitation Hedges. Settlements of Precipitation Agreements are included in rates in the year settled and accordingly, the intrinsic value of open precipitation hedges is deferred as regulatory assets or liabilities.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 9. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS To help provide stable electric rates and to meet the forecasted power needs of its retail customers reliably, SMUD enters into various physical and financial fixed price purchase contracts for electricity and natural gas.

These fixed price contracts and swap agreements are intended to hedge the exposure due to highly volatile commodity prices. SMUD also enters into interest rate swap agreements to reduce interest rate risk, or to enhance the relationship between the risk and return regarding SMUD's assets or debt obligations. SMUD utilizes these derivative financial instruments to mitigate its exposure to certain market risks associated with ongoing operations. SMUD has established policies set by an executive committee for the use of derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. These contracts are evaluated pursuant to GASB No. 53 to determine whether they meet the definition of derivative instruments, and if so, whether they effectively hedge the expected cash flows associated with interest rate and commodity price risk exposures.

SMUD applies hedge accounting for derivatives that are deemed effective hedges. Under hedge accounting, the increase or (decrease) in the fair value of a hedge is reported as a Deferred Inflow or Deferred Outflow on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. Derivatives that do not meet the effectiveness tests are deferred for rate-making purposes as regulatory assets or liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position (see Note 8).

SMUD implemented GASB No. 53 in 2010. During 2013 and 2012, SMUD executed numerous new gas and power related purchase agreements, some of which are recorded as hedging or investment derivatives and are therefore included in the table below. All hedging or investment derivatives are recorded at fair value on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position.

For electricity and gas derivatives, fair values are estimated by comparing contract prices to forward market prices quoted by an independent external pricing service. When external quoted market prices are not available for derivative contracts, SMUD uses an internally developed valuation model utilizing short term observable inputs. For interest rate derivatives, SMUD subscribes to a financial information service that it uses to verify fair value estimates obtained from its counterparties.

Maximum Price/Dth (0.25) 7.65 4.32 0.05 SMUD hedges its interest costs. The interest rate swaps are designed to synthetically fix the cash flows associated with variable rate bonds (see Note 10).

SMUD hedges its power and natural gas costs so that it can offer predictable rates to its retail electric customers and support its credit rating. SMUD maintains a risk management program to control the price, credit, and operational risks arising from its power and natural gas market activities. Under the program, authorized SMUD employees assemble a portfolio of swaps, futures, and forward contracts over time with the goal of making SMUD's purchased power and fuel budget more predictable.

These hedged risks include those related to interest rate and commodity price fluctuations associated with certain forecasted transactions, including interest rate risk on long-term debt, and forward purchases of gas and electricity to meet load.

I Leading theWay I SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments Gas and Electric Contracts. SMUD utilizes certain gas swap and electric swap agreements under GASB No. 53 not designated as hedging derivative instruments to mitigate exposure to changes in the market price of natural gas and electricity. The fair value of each agreement, excluding the actual settlements to be paid or received as of the end of the period, is recorded in either Current or Noncurrent Assets, Investment Derivative Instruments on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position if in an asset position or Current or Noncurrent Liabilities, Investment Derivative Instruments on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position if in a liability position. An offsetting amount is included in Current or Noncurrent Regulatory Costs or Regulatory Credits for future recovery in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. The actual settlement payable is recorded in Accounts Payable on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position, and the actual settlement receivable is recorded in Receivables - Net -

Other on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. The payments and receipts of the actual settlement are recorded as Investment Expense in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position.

Interest Rate Contracts. SMUD utilizes certain interest rate swap agreements not designated as hedging derivative instruments under GASB No. 53 to mitigate exposure to changes in the fair value of variable rate debt resulting from fluctuations in interest rates. The fair value of each agreement, excluding the balance of interest to be paid or received as of the end of the period, is recorded in either Current or Noncurrent Assets, Investment Derivative Instruments on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position if in an asset position or Current or Noncurrent Liabilities, Investment Derivative Instruments on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position if in a liability position. An offsetting amount is included in Current or Noncurrent Regulatory Costs or Deferred Outflows or Inflows of Resources in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. The interest receivable is recorded in Receivables - Net - Other on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position, and the accrued interest is recorded in Interest Payable on the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. The payments or receipts of the actual settlement are recorded as Investment Expense in the Consolidated Statements of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position.

The Board has deferred recognition of the effects of reporting the fair value of Investment Derivative Instruments for rate-making purposes, and maintains regulatory accounts to defer the accounting impact of these accounting adjustments (see Note 8). Market values may have changed significantly since December 31, 2013.

Interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect the fair values of SMUD's interest rate swaps. SMUD is exposed to interest rate risk on its interest rate swaps.

Basis risk. Basis risk is the risk that arises when a hedged item and a derivative that is attempting to hedge that item are based on different indices. SMUD is exposed to basis risk when it hedges its natural gas purchases, which are priced at various locations, with NYMEX futures contracts, which settle based on the price in Henry Hub, Louisiana. SMUD enters into basis swaps to hedge against this risk.

SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013 1 Leading theWay

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Termination risk. Termination risk is the risk that a derivative will terminate prior to its scheduled maturity due to a contractual event. Contractual events include bankruptcy, illegality, default, credit events upon merger, and other events. One aspect of termination risk is that SMUD would lose the hedging benefit of a derivative that becomes subject to a termination event. Another aspect of termination risk is that, if at the time of termination the mark to market value of the derivative was a liability to SMUD, SMUD could be required to pay that amount to the counterparty. Termination risk is associated with all of SMUD's derivatives up to the fair value amounts.

Credit Risk. Credit risk is the risk of loss resulting when the counterparty is unable or unwilling to fulfill its present and future financial obligations. SMUD can be exposed to significant counterparty credit risk on all derivative instruments. SMUD seeks to minimize credit risk by transacting with creditworthy counterparties. SMUD has established and maintained strict counterparty credit guidelines. SMUD continuously monitors counterparty credit risk and utilizes numerous counterparties to diversify the exposure to potential defaults. Under certain conditions as outlined in SMUD's credit risk management policy, SMUD may require additional credit support under its trading agreements.

Some of SMUD's derivative master agreements contain credit contingent provisions that enable SMUD to maintain unsecured credit as a result of positive investment quality credit ratings from each of the major credit rating agencies. If SMUD's debt were to be downgraded, there could be a step-down in SMUD's unsecured credit thresholds, and SMUD's counterparties would require additional collateral. If SMUD's debt were to decrease below investment grade, SMUD's unsecured credit thresholds would be reduced to zero, and counterparties to the derivative instruments would demand ongoing full collateralization on derivative instruments in net out of the money positions (See Note 2).

The counterparties' current credit rating at December 31, 2013 is shown in the table below.

Leading theWay I SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2013 Bond Refundings and Redemptions. In May 2013, SMUD issued $118.6 million of 2013 Series B Electric Revenue Refunding Bonds (2013 Series B bonds). Proceeds from the 2013 Series B bonds and $6.7 million of available funds were used to refund $141.5 million of the outstanding 2003 Series R, and 2004 Series T bonds through a legal defeasance, and accordingly, the liability for the defeased bonds has been removed from Long-Term Debt in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. The refunding resulted in the recognition of a deferred accounting gain of $2.0 million, which is being amortized over the life of the refunding issue. The 2013 Series B refunding reduced future aggregate debt service payments by $33.8 million and resulted in a total economic gain of $22.5 million, which is the present value of the difference between the old and new debt service payments.

In August 2013, SMUD issued $57.8 million of 2013 Series C Electric Revenue Refunding Bonds (2013 Series C bonds). Proceeds from the 2013 Series C bonds and $4.3 million of available funds were used to refund $65.9 million of the outstanding 2003 Series S bonds through a legal defeasance, and accordingly, the liability for the defeased bonds has been removed from Long-Term Debt in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. The refunding resulted in the recognition of a deferred accounting loss of $0.3 million, which is being amortized over the life of the refunding issue. The 2013 Series C refunding reduced future aggregate debt service payments by $12.1 million and resulted in a total economic gain of $6.2 million, which is the present value of the difference between the old and new debt service payments.

2012 Bond Refundings and Redemptions. In May 2012, SMUD issued $196.9 million of 2012 Series Y Electric Revenue Refunding Bonds. Proceeds from the 2012 bonds and $10.0 million of available funds were used to refund

$219.9 million of the outstanding 2002, 2003, and 2004 revenue bonds through a legal defeasance, and accordingly, the liability for the defeased bonds has been removed from Long-Term Debt in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position. The refunding resulted in the recognition of a deferred accounting loss of $6.9 million, which is being amortized over the life of the refunding issue. The 2012 Series Y refunding reduced future aggregate debt service payments by $36.3 million and resulted in a total economic gain of $21.5 million, which is the net present value of the difference between the old and new debt service payments.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements. A summary of SMUD's three interest rate swap agreements are as follows.

The credit ratings listed are from S&P:

Initial Notional Counterparty Amount SMUD Fixed Floating Termination Credit (thousands)

Pays Rate Rate Date Rating 131,030 Variable 5.154%

SIFMA 07/01/24 A-269,095 Fixed 4.345%

70% of LIBOR 08/15/18 AA+

111,900 Fixed 2.894%

63% of LIBOR 08/15/28 A-SMUD has a fixed-to-variable interest rate swap agreement with an initial notional amount of $131.0 million, which is equivalent to the principal amount of SMUD's 1997 Series K Electric Revenue Bonds. Under this swap agreement, SMUD pays a variable rate equivalent to the SIFMA Index (0.06 percent at December 31, 2013) and receives fixed rate payments of 5.154 percent. In connection with the swap agreement, SMUD has a put option agreement, also with an initial notional amount of $131.0 million, which gives the counterparty the right to sell to SMUD, at par, either the 1997 Series K Bonds, or a portfolio of securities sufficient to defease the 1997 Series K Bonds. The exercise of the option terminates the swap at no cost to SMUD. The term of both the swap and the put is equal to the maturity of the 1997 Series K Bonds.

SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013 1 Leading theWay

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Additionally, SMUD has two variable-to-fixed interest rate swap agreements with a combined initial notional amount of $381.0 million originally entered into for the purpose of fixing the effective interest rate associated with certain of its subordinated bonds that were refunded during 2008. The notional values of the two swaps are amortized over the life of the respective swap agreements. SMUD can terminate all swap agreements at any time, with payment or receipt of the fair market value of the swaps as of the date of termination. The obligations of SMUD under the swap agreements are not secured by a pledge of revenues of SMUD's electric system or any other property of SMUD.

Component Unit Interest Rate Swap Agreements. NCGA has three interest rate swap agreements, which are summarized as follows. The credit ratings listed are from S&P:

Credit Support Initial Notional Provider Amount NCGA Fixed Floating Termination Credit (thousands)

Pays Rate Rate Date Rating 100,385 Fixed 4.062%

67% of LIBOR +.60%

07/01/17 A-65,865 Fixed 4.144%

67% of LIBOR +.63%

07/01/19 A-198,610 Fixed 4.304%

67% of LIIBOR +.72%

07/01/27 A-At December 31, 2013 NCGA has three variable-to-fixed interest rate swap agreements with a counterparty for the purpose of fixing the effective interest rate associated with the 2007 Series B Bonds. NCGA pays the counter-party a fixed rate on the notional amount and receives a floating rate equal to 67 percent of the three month LIBOR (0.25 percent at December 31, 2013) plus an interest rate spread, as specified in each swap agreement.

The total notional amount of the three swaps at December 31, 2012 was $364.9 million and was equivalent to the outstanding principal balance on the NCGA Bonds. The swaps are amortized over the life of their respective swap agreements in a manner corresponding to the principal repayment schedule of the NCGA Bonds. Early termination of the swaps would occur upon termination of the prepaid agreement for any reason. Upon early termination, the swaps would have no value to either party.

Subordinated Electric Revenue Bonds. Payment of and interest on the Subordinated Electric Revenue Bonds is subordinate to the payment of the principal and interest on SMUD's Electric Revenue Bonds.

Variable Rate Bonds. SMUD's Variable Rate Bonds bear interest at weekly rates, ranging from 0.03 percent to 0.04 percent at December 31, 2013. SMUD can elect to change the interest rate period or fix the interest rate, with certain limitations. SMUD's Variable Rate Bonds can be put to SMUD's Trustee by the bondholders; however, SMUD has in place a reimbursement agreement with Bank of America to enable SMUD to pay off the bonds over five years if the bonds are put. Accordingly, SMUD has recorded such bonds as Long-Term Debt, less amounts scheduled for redemption within one year.

I Leading theWay I SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Component Unit Bonds. The component units of SMUD have each issued bonds to finance their respective projects. The revenue stream to pay the SPA, NCGA and SFA bonds' debt service is provided by a take and pay purchase agreement. Principal and interest associated with these bonds are paid solely from the component units' revenues and receipts collected in connection with the operation of the projects. Most operating revenues earned by the component units are collected from SMUD in connection with the sale of gas or electricity to SMUD.

The ability to service debt for SPA and SFA is dependent upon the successful availability of operations, and for NCGA is dependent on various parties (particularly MSCG, as gas supplier) meeting their contractual obligations.

The ability of SCA and CVFA to service their debt is not dependent upon the successful operation of the project, as SMUD is required, under a "take or pay" contract to make payments sufficient to pay principal and interest and all other payments required to be made under CVFA and SCA's indenture of trust, regardless of the continued successful operation of the Project.

Callable Bonds. SMUD has $797.9 million of Electric System Revenue Bonds that are currently callable,

$450.0 million of which are fixed rate Build America Bonds debt and $347.9 million of subordinate Variable Rate Demand Notes (VRDN's). SMUD also has $1,078.5 million of bonds that become callable from 2014 through 2024, and these bonds can be called until maturity.

Collateral. The principal and interest on SMUD's bonds are payable exclusively from, and are collateralized by a pledge of, the net revenues of SMUD's electric system. Neither the credit nor the taxing power of SMUD is pledged to the payment of the bonds and the general fund of SMUD is not liable for the payment thereof.

Covenants. SMUD's bond resolutions contain various covenants that include requirements to maintain minimum debt service coverage ratios, certain other financial ratios, stipulated minimum funding of revenue bond reserves, and various other requirements including a rate covenant to raise rates to maintain minimum debt service coverage.

SMUD has pledged future net electric revenues, component unit net project revenues, and net gas supply prepayment revenues to repay, in electric revenue, component unit project revenue, and gas supply prepayment revenue bonds issued from 1993 through 2013. Proceeds from the bonds provided financing for various capital improvement projects, component unit capital projects, and the prepayment of a twenty-year supply of natural gas. The bonds are payable solely from the net revenues generated by SMUD's electrical sales, component unit project revenues, and gas supply prepayment revenues and are payable through 2041 at December 31, 2013.

$ 200,000 NOTE 12. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate the value:

Investments. The fair values of investments, including cash equivalents, are based upon quoted market prices.

Long-Term Debt. The fair value of Long-Term Debt, which includes the short-term portion, was calculated for all fixed rate debt by determining the present value of each individual maturity's cash flow using a discount rate from a representative yield curve. All yield curves were obtained from Bloomberg, L.P. or calculated using linear interpolation from data obtained from the Bloomberg yield curves. With the exception of SMUD's Build America Bonds (BABS) both insured and uninsured SMUD debt was valued using the yield curve for "A" rated municipal power bonds. SMUD's rating is higher than the bond insurers and therefore the yield curve for insured municipal bonds was not used for insured SMUD debt. SMUD's BABS bonds are "A+" rated and therefore use the "A" rated BABS yield curve, the closest, conservative yield curve available. Both SCA and CVFA bonds are rated at the same level as SMUD and were valued at the yield curve for "A" rated municipal power bonds. SFA and SPA are both "BBB" rated and therefore use the "BBB" rated Muni Revenue yield curve, the closest, conservative yield curve available. The SMUD 2008 Series J and K, the SMUD 2012 Series L and M, and the NCGA 2007B bonds are included in the fair value total at par as they are variable rate obligations.

Interest Rate Swap and Put Agreements. The fair values of interest rate swap and put agreements are based on values provided by counterparties.

Gas and Electricity Related Derivatives. The fair values of gas and electricity price swap agreements and electricity option agreements are based on forward prices from established indexes for the applicable regions.

The fair values of gas and electricity purchase agreements are based on forward prices from established indexes from applicable regions and discounted using established interest rate indexes.

NOTE 13. RANCHO SECO DECOMMISSIONING LIABILITY Background. The Rancho Seco decommissioning liability relates to the nuclear decommissioning of the former 913 MW nuclear power plant, which terminated commercial operations in 1989 and the separately licensed Independent Spent Fuel Storage Facility (ISFSI). Nuclear decommissioning is the process of safely removing nuclear facilities from service and reducing residual radioactivity to a level that permits termination of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) license, and release of the property for unrestricted use. The NRC has approved SMUD's decommissioning plan for the nuclear power plant, which delineates a phased process, and the first phase of physical work was completed in 2008. Decommissioning of the ISFSI will occur after the Department of Energy (DOE) removes the spent nuclear fuel and high level waste from the site.

In 2009, the NRC released all of the land under the Part 50 license for unrestricted use with the exception of the I acre fenced area around the Interim Onsite Storage Building that houses the stored class B and C wastes. This waste is scheduled for disposal by the end of 2014. The facility operating license will be terminated after the waste is removed and the decommissioning process is completed for the storage facility.

SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013 1 Leading theWay

Sacramento Municipal Utility District 1 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The DOE, under the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982, is responsible for permanent disposal of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste which are currently in storage at the ISFSI. SMUD has a contract with the DOE for the removal and disposal of spent nuclear fuel and high-level (greater than class "C": GTCC) radioactive waste.

All of SMUD's spent fuel and GTCC waste are currently stored in sealed canisters in the ISFSI. However, the date when fuel and GTCC waste removal will be complete is uncertain. In 2010, the DOE formally withdrew the application for licensing of Yucca Mountain as a high-level waste repository, essentially removing Yucca Mountain as an option for disposal of SMUD's used nuclear fuel. The DOE also announced in January 2010 the creation of a Blue Ribbon Commission to study alternatives for developing a repository for the nation's used nuclear fuel. The Commission provided a final report on alternatives in January 2012. The DOE evaluated the recommendations and published the report "Strategy for the Management and Disposal of Used Nuclear Fuel and High-Level Radioactive Waste" in January 2013. The next phase of the process will be for Congress and the President of the United States to consider the recommendations and enact legislation to implement the recommendations. At this time, there is no credible information available to determine when the DOE would remove the used nuclear fuel from the Rancho Seco facility. The ISFSI will remain under the regulation of the NRC until the nuclear fuel and GTCC radioactive waste are removed and the site is decommissioned.

Asset Retirement Obligations. These financial statements reflect SMUD's current estimate of its obligation for the cost of decommissioning (including the cost of managing the Storage Facility until it can be decommissioned) under the requirements of FASB ASC 410, based on studies completed each year. Each year, SMUD evaluates the estimate of costs of decommissioning and there was a decrease in costs in the 2013 study. The ARO estimate assumes all spent nuclear fuel will be removed from the site by 2028.

SMUD participates in the California Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS), an agent multiple-employer public employee defined benefit pension plan. PERS provides retirement and disability benefits, annual cost-of-living adjustments, and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries.

PERS acts as a common investment and administrative agent for participating public entities within the State.

Benefit provisions and all other requirements are established by State statute and SMUD policies. The pension plan provides retirement benefits, survivor benefits, and death and disability benefits based upon employees years of credited service, age, and final compensation. Copies of PERS' annual financial report may be obtained from their Executive Office at 400 Q Street, Sacramento, California 95814.

Funding Policy. Participants are required to contribute approximately seven percent of their annual covered salary.

SMUD makes partial contributions required of SMUD employees on their behalf and for their account. SMUD is currently required to contribute 11 percent of payroll to the plan. The contribution requirements of plan members and SMUD are established by PERS. On January 1, 2013, the public Employee's Pension Reform Act of 2013 (PEPRA) took effect, requiring a public employer's contribution to a defined benefit plan, in combination with employee contributions to that defined benefit plan, shall not be less than the normal cost rate.

Annual Pension Cost. PERS payments made by SMUD in 2013 were $34.1 million. The Annual Pension Cost for 2013 was $31.1 million, and $0.6 million was paid by employees for purchase of additional service credits and $2.4 million was paid by employees for their contribution to PERS. Overall, SMUD paid $31.1 million, and employees paid $3.0 million. PERS payments made by SMUD in 2012 were $33.5 million. The Annual Pension Cost for 2012 was $32.0 million, and $0.5 million was paid by employees for purchase of additional service credits and $1.0 million was paid by employees for their contribution to PERS. Overall, SMUD paid

$32.0 million, and employees paid $1.5 million. Contributions are determined by actuarial valuations, which are performed based on the entry age normal actuarial cost method. The contribution for the first half of 2013 was determined by PERS as part of the annual actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2011; the contribution for the second half of 2013 was determined by PERS as part of the annual actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2012. The actuarial assumptions included: (a) a 7.5 percent investment rate of return (net of administrative expenses) for 2013 and 2012, (b) projected annual salary increases that vary by duration of service, and (c) a 3.0 percent per year payroll growth. Both (a) and (b) also included an inflation component of 2.75 percent. The actuarial value of PERS' assets was determined using techniques that smooth the effects of short-term volatility in the market value of investments over different periods. All changes in liability due to plan amendments, and changes in actuarial assumptions or methodology are amortized separately over a 20-year period. All gains or losses are amortized over a rolling 30-year period, with the exception of special gains and losses for the 2009, 2010, and 2011 annual valuations. These fiscal years gains and losses will be amortized over fixed and declining 30-year periods. If a plan's accrued liability exceeds the actuarial value of assets, the annual contribution with respect to the total unfunded liability may not be less than the amount produced by a 30-year amortization of the unfunded liability.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Funded Status and Funding Progress. As of June 30, 2012, the most recent actuarial valuation date, the plan was 92.2 percent funded. The actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $1,693.6 million, and the actuarial value of assets was $1,561.6 million, resulting in an unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) of $132.0 million.

The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) was $177.8 million, and the ratio of the UAAL to the covered payroll was 74.2 percent. The schedule of funding progress, presented as Required Supplementary Information (RSI) following the notes to the financial statements, presents multiyear trend information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liability for benefits.

Other Plans, SMUD provides its employees with two cash deferred compensation plans: one pursuant to Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 401(k) [401(k) Plan] and one pursuant to IRC Section 457 (457 Plan)

(collectively, the Plans). The Plans are contributory plans in which SMUD's employees contribute the funds.

Each of SMUD's eligible full-time or permanent part-time employees may participate in either or both Plans, and amounts contributed are vested immediately. Such funds are held by a Trustee in trust for the employees upon retirement from SMUD service and, accordingly, are not subject to the general claims of SMUD's creditors.

SMUD is responsible for ensuring compliance with IRC requirements concerning the Plans and has the duty of reasonable care in the selection of investment alternatives, but neither SMUD, nor its Board or officers have any liability for market variations in the Plans' asset values. SMUD employees are responsible for determining how their funds are to be invested and pay all ongoing fees related to the Plans. The Plans are currently not subject to discrimination testing, nor the requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

SMUD employees participating in the Plans are allowed to contribute a portion of their gross income not to exceed the annual dollar limits prescribed by the IRC.

SMUD makes annual contributions to the 40 1(k) Plan on behalf of certain employees pursuant to a memorandum of understanding with both of its collective bargaining units. SMUD does not match employee contributions, nor make contributions on behalf of its employees to the 457 Plan. Participating employees made contributions into the Plans totaling $16.2 million in 2013 and $16.0 million in 2012. SMUD made contributions into the Plans of

$1.6 million in 2013 and $1.1 million 2012.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District 1 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 15. OTHER POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS SMUD provides postemployment healthcare benefits, in accordance with SMUD policy and negotiated agreements with employee representation groups in a single employer defined benefit plan, to all employees who retire from SMUD, and their dependents. SMUD also provides postemployment healthcare benefits to covered employees who are eligible for disability retirement. SMUD contributes the full cost of coverage for retirees hired before January 1, 1991, and a portion of the cost based on credited years of service for retirees hired after January 1, 1991. SMUD also contributes a portion of the costs of coverage for these retirees' dependents. Retirees are required to contribute the portion that is not paid by SMUD. The benefits, benefit levels, retiree contributions and employer contributions are governed by SMUD and can be amended by SMUD through its personnel manual and union contracts. At June 30, 2013, 5,068 postemployment participants, including retirees, spouses of retirees, surviving spouses, and eligible dependents, were eligible to participate in SMUD's healthcare benefits program.

OPEB arises from an exchange of salaries and benefits for employee services rendered, and refers to postemployment benefits other than pension benefits such as post employment healthcare benefits. SMUD considers the following benefits to be OPEB: Medical, Dental and Long-Term Disability.

Plan Description. SMUD is a member of the California Employers Retiree Benefit Trust (CERBT) for prefunding of OPEB obligations. The CERBT Fund is an IRC Section 115 Trust set up for the purpose of receiving employer contributions to prefund health and other postemployment benefits for retirees and their beneficiaries. The plan is an agent multiple employer plan administered by PERS, which provides medical, dental and long-term disability benefits for retirees and their beneficiaries. Any changes to these benefits would be approved by SMUD's Board and union contracts. To obtain a CERBT report, please contact PERS at 888-CALPERS.

The funding of a plan occurs when the following events take place: the employer makes payments of benefits directly to or on behalf of a retiree or beneficiary; the employer makes premium payments to an insurer; or the employer irrevocably transfers assets to a trust or other third party acting in the role of trustee, where the plan assets are dedicated to the sole purpose of the payments of the plan benefits, and creditors of the government do not have access to those assets.

Funding Policy. SMUD has elected to net fund to PERS, so the contributions are the Annual Required Contribution (ARC) less the estimated cash flow for retiree benefit costs for each year. SMUD can elect to put in additional contributions into the trust, and in 2012 funded an additional $35.0 million to the CERBT, which consisted of $4.8 million related to the restated ARC, and $30.2 million in additional contributions. In 2013 and 2012, the net ARC contribution to the CERBT was $8.6 and $4.0 million, respectively. During 2013 and 2012, SMUD made the following healthcare benefit contributions by paying actual medical costs of $22.2 million and

$20.9 million, respectively.

Funding Status and Funding Progress. At June 30, 2013 and 2012, SMUD estimates that the actuarially determined accumulated postemployment benefit obligation was approximately $492.7 and $424.7 million, respectively. At June 30, 2013 and 2012, the plan was 21.0 and 12.4 percent funded, respectively. The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) at June 30, 2013 and 2012, was $179.7 and

$174.6 million, respectively. The ratio of the UAAL to covered payroll was 216.7 percent at June 30, 2013.

SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013 1 Leading theWay

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Annual OPEB Cost. The annual OPEB cost (expense) is calculated based on the ARC of the employer, an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of SGAS No. 45, "Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions." The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover the normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not to exceed 30 years. For 2013, SMUD's annual OPEB Cost (expense) was $29.1 million.

The following table shows the components of SMUD's annual OPEB cost for the year, the amount actually paid in premiums, and changes in the net OPEB obligation:

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Actuarial Methods and Assumptions. Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as understood by the employer and plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing the benefit costs between the employer and plan members to that point. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations.

The entry age normal was used in the June 30, 2013 and 2012 actuarial valuation. Actuarial assumptions used a 7.36 percent investment rate of return (net of administrative expenses), and a 3.0 percent inflation assumption. For 2013, the actuarial assumptions for an annual healthcare cost trend growth rate ranged from 6.01 to 27.69 percent for the current year, 8.0 to 8.5 percent for 2014, and 7.5 to 8.0 percent for 2015. The UAAL will be amortized as a percentage of payroll over an open 30-year period. At June 30, 2013 and 2012 the actuarial value of the assets was

$103.3 and $52.7 million, respectively.

Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future. Examples include assumptions about future employment, mortality and the healthcare cost trends. Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the plan and the ARC of the employer are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. The schedule of funding progress, presented as RSI following the notes to the financial statements, presents multiyear trend information that shows whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liabilities for benefits.

NOTE 16. INSURANCE PROGRAMS AND CLAIMS SMUD is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts, theft of and destruction to assets, errors and omissions, and natural disasters. In addition, SMUD is exposed to risks of loss due to injuries to, and illnesses of, its employees. SMUD carries commercial insurance coverage to cover most claims in excess of specific dollar thresholds, which range from $5 thousand to $2.5 million per claim with total excess liability insurance coverage for most claims of $120.0 million. SMUD's property insurance coverage is based on the replacement value of the asset. There have been no significant reductions in insurance coverage, and in some cases, certain coverages increased. In 2013, 2012 and 2011, the insurance policies in effect have adequately covered all settlements of the claims against SMUD. No claims have exceeded the limits of property or liability insurance in any of the past three years.

The claims liability is included as a component of Self Insurance, Unearned Revenue and Other in the Consolidated Statements of Net Position.

SMUD has numerous power purchase agreements with other power producers to purchase capacity, transmission, and associated energy to supply a portion of its load requirements. SMUD has minimum take-or-pay commitments for energy on some contracts. Certain contracts allow SMUD to exchange energy received primarily in the summer months, when SMUD most needs the energy and to return energy during the winter months, or other subsequent periods. SMUD has numerous long-term natural gas supply, gas transportation and gas storage agreements with Canadian and U.S. companies to supply a portion of the consumption needs of SMUD's natural gas-fired power plants, which expire through 2040.

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Contractual Commitments beyond 2018 - Electricity. Several of SMUD's purchase power and transmission contracts extend beyond the five-year summary presented above. These contracts expire between 2019 and 2033 and provide for power under various terms and conditions. SMUD estimates its annual minimum commitments under the take or pay contracts range between $31.3 million in 2019 and $5.3 million in 2033. SMUD estimates its annual minimum commitments under the remaining contracts, assuming the energy is delivered, range between

$85.5 million in 2019 and $10.4 million in 2032. SMUD's largest purchase power source is the Western Base Resource contract, whereby SMUD receives 31.25 percent of the amount of energy made available by Western, after meeting Central Valley Project use requirements, in any given year at a 31.25 percent share of their revenue requirement. On January 1, 2015, SMUD's percentage share changes to approximately 25 percent. The Western contract expires on December 31, 2024.

Contractual Commitments beyond 2018 - Gas. Several of SMUD's natural gas supply, gas transportation and gas storage contracts extend beyond the five-year summary presented above. These contracts expire between 2019 and 2040 and provide for transportation and storage under various terms and conditions. SMUD estimates its annual minimum commitments under the take or pay contracts range between $17.9 million in 2019 and $7.2 million in 2040. SMUD estimates its annual minimum commitments under the remaining contracts, assuming the gas is delivered, range between $86.5 million in 2019 and $19.7 million in 2040.

Additional Contracts. SMUD has entered into one additional power contract that has phase two excluded from the table above due to an unknown start date. Phase two of this contract is based on generation that has not been built and is expected online between 2015 and 2016. Because of the uncertainty of the start date, it has been excluded from the table above.

Solano Wind. In December 2011, SMUD entered into an agreement to sell the Solano Wind Phase 3 project (see Note 2). SMUD will buy all output from the plant under the terms of the Power Purchase Agreement. The plant began commercial operation in April 2012 and SMUD receives all output generated. Under the terms of the various agreements, SMUD has the option to buy the plant back at certain discrete future dates.

Gas Price Swap Agreements. SMUD has entered into numerous variable to fixed rate swaps with notional amounts totaling 158,180,000 Dth for the purpose of fixing the rate on SMUD's natural gas purchases for its gas-fueled power plants and gas indexed electric contracts. These gas price swap agreements result in SMUD paying fixed rates ranging from $3.83 to $7.17 per Dth. The swap agreements expire periodically from January 2014 through December 2022.

Gas Transport Capacity Agreements. SMUD has numerous long-term natural gas transport capacity agreements with Canadian and U.S. companies to transport natural gas to SMUD's natural gas-fired power plants from the supply basins in Alberta to the California-Oregon border and from supply basins in the southwest and Rocky Mountains to the Southern California border. These gas transport capacity agreements provide for the delivery of gas into SMUD-owned pipeline capacity within California. The gas transport capacity agreements provide SMUD with 56,000 Dth per day (Dth/d) of natural gas pipeline capacity from the North, including the Canadian Basins through 2023 and 54,000 Dth/d from the Southwest or Rocky Mountain Basins through at least 2018.

Gas Storage Agreements. SMUD also has an agreement for the storage of up to 2.0 million Dth of natural gas at regional facilities through March 2014, dropping to 1.0 million Dth through March 2015.

NOYTE 18. CLAIMS AND CONTINGENCIES

]FIERC Administrative Proceedings. SMUD is involved in a number of FERC administrative proceedings related tc the deregulation of the California electric utility industry. While these proceedings are complex and numerous, they generally fall into three categories: (i) filings initiated by the California Independent System Operator (CEAISO)

(or other market participants) to adopt/modify the CAISO Tariff and/or establish market design and Eb4ehavior rules; (ii) filings initiated by existing transmission owners (i.e. PG&E and the other Investor Owned Utilities (IOUs)) to pass-through CAISO related costs to their existing wholesale transmission customers; and (iii) filings initiated by FERC on market participants to establish market design and behavior rules or to complain about or investigate market behavior by certain market participants.

Ci*onstruction Matters. SMUD contracts with various firms to design and construct facilities for SMUD.

4Cxirrently, SMUD is party to various claims, legal actions and complaints relating to such construction projects.

S3MUD's management believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on SMUD's financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

Uunivironmental Matters. SMUD was one of many potentially responsible parties that had been named in a number of actions relating to environmental claims and/or complaints. SMUD has resolved these environmental claims anrid/or complaints and entered into settlement agreements and/or consent orders. These settlement agreements and conrisent orders have statutory reopener provisions which allow regulatory agencies to seek additional funds for ernvironmental remediation under certain limited circumstances. While SMUD believes it is unlikely that any of the prior settlement agreements or consent orders will be reopened, the possibility exists. If any of the settlement agreements or consent orders is reopened, SMUD management does not believe that the outcome will have a m-iaterial adverse impact on SMUD's financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

1N4orth City Remediation. In 1950, SMUD purchased property (North City Site) from the City of Sacramento and the Western Railroad Company. Portions of the North City Site prior to the sale had been operated as a municipal landfill by the City of Sacramento. SMUD currently operates a bulk substation on the North City Site. SMUD intends to assure compliance with State standards at closed landfill sites and is in the process of determining the appropriate remediation for the North City Site. In 2009, SMUD established a regulatory asset to defer recognition cf the expense related to the investigation, design and remediation necessary for the North City Site, and recorded a liability for the full $12.0 million estimated for the project. At December 31, 2012, the regulatory asset was fully axnortized (See Note 8). As the owner of the North City Site, SMUD will have a role in the remediation selection ainid activities, as may those who operated or used the North City Site for landfill purposes. SMUD has estimated its exposure to such costs based on its proportionate share of the remedy. However, should others become unable to participate due to insolvency or otherwise unable to pay their share of the costs, SMUD's share of remediation costs would increase. SMUD's management does not believe this will occur. Even if SMUD were to ultimately be rxesponsible for all remediation costs associated with the North City Site, SMUD management believes that the ouitcome of these remediation costs will not have a material adverse impact on SM1UD's financial position, liquidity c>r results of operations.

I Leading theWay I SMUD ANNUAL REPORT 2013

Sacramento Municipal Utility District I 2013 Annual Report NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Former Community Linen Rental Services (Community) Property. In 1981, SMUD purchased property from Community located at 1824 and 1826 61st Street (Site). That same year, Community sold its linen business and equipment to Mission Laundry (Mission). SMUD continued to lease portions of the property to Mission until 1985.

SMUD settled with these businesses and waived a potential future legal claim for cleanup funding. The property to the north of the Site was owned by Kramer Carton Company (Kramer) and used for 60 years as a carton manufacturing facility. In 2009, Kramer filed for bankruptcy protection from its creditors. The Kramer property was encumbered by a first and second deed of trust, where the second deed of trust was held by Willamette Capital Management, Ltd. (Willamette). Willamette purchased the note on the first deed of trust. In 2011, Willamette foreclosed on the Kramer property and now holds title to the Kramer property. Based on environmental investigations, it has been determined that there is contamination at the Kramer property, at the Site, and at areas south of the Kramer property. The contamination appears to emanate primarily from the Site, with some contribution from the Kramer property. Preliminary environmental investigations of the Kramer property, the Site and areas south of the Kramer property indicate that total remediation costs may exceed $3.0 million. SMUD does not believe that it is the source of the contamination. Nonetheless, since Kramer is bankrupt and Willamette contends it is exempt from liability under a secured creditor exemption, it is unclear whether it would be beneficial for SMUD to take legal action for contribution. SMUD has estimated its exposure to such costs based on its proportionate share of the remedy.

However, should others become unable to participate due to insolvency or otherwise refuse to pay their entire share of the costs, SMUD's share of remediation costs would increase; alternatively, SMUD could potentially acquire the Kramer property at a nominal or greatly reduced cost, giving SMUD an asset with value that will materialize after the cleanup. Even if SMUD were to ultimately be responsible for all remediation costs associated with the Site, SMUD's management believes that the remediation of the Site will not have a material adverse impact on SMUD's financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

East Campus - Operations Center Dispute (Turner Construction Company). In December 2010, SMUD entered into the East Campus - Operations Center Design-Build Agreement (Agreement) for $112.0 million with Turner Construction Company (Turner) to construct the East Campus - Operations Center (EC-OC) design-build project (Project). In April 2013, SMUD provided Turner with notice of substantial completion of the Project.

Section 18.4(a) of the Agreement requires SMUD to purchase a project errors and omissions policy (Project E&O Policy) for the Project. Turner has alleged that SMUD has breached the Agreement because the Project E&O Policy purchased by SMUD does not comply with Section 18.4(a) of the Agreement for two reasons: (1) the Project E&O Policy does not cover "all claims" for design defects, because the Project E&O Policy's insured vs. insured exclusion prohibits Turner from recovering under the policy for design defects on the part of other insureds, and (2) SMUD purchased extended (tail) coverage for only five, rather than the required ten years. Turner asserts claims arising from the breach of the Agreement total $3.5 million. Thus far, Turner and SMUD are in discussion regarding potential resolution; though neither party has triggered the dispute resolution process within the Agreement. SMUD's management believes the claims are without merit. In any event, SMUD's management believes that the outcome of this matter will not have a material adverse impact on SMUD's financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

Other Matters. Currently, SMUD is party to various claims, legal actions and complaints relating to its operations, including but not limited to: property damage and personal injury, contract disputes, torts, and employment matters.

SMUD's management believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on SMUD's financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
